Extra 20: The big wedding
The courtyard of the Pei family was surrounded by water, and the villagers stretched their necks one by one to poke in, and in the front hall of the hostess, Steward Fang and Hui Niang and his wife accompanied them to greet these guests from afar
Of course, it was Steward Fang who mainly spoke, and Hui Niang and his wife just sat on the side and listened to the few of them
Du Zhifu saw that Hui Niang and his wife were a little faced, and asked deliberately, and the shopkeeper Fang introduced it on the side, and Jiang Zhifu suddenly realized after hearing it: "It turns out that the two are the Fan family husband and wife that Mu Qing often mentions, Ai is really famous, it is better to meet" His eyes were full of appreciation
Fan Ming's face turned red, and he said with a smile: "The prefect is too modest."
After chatting a few words casually, Steward Fang beckoned the Jiang Governor's family of three to rest, and waited until the auspicious day to come out, but Fang Jiangyu did not go with him, but stayed in place, and when the Jiang Governor and his wife left, Jiang Yu was like a wild horse that had taken off the leash
ran to Hui Niang's husband and wife, "Aunt Liu, where is Miao Miao?" Why didn't you see her? Jiang Yu's face was very excited
Hui Niang glanced at Miao Miao a few times, "Okay, what are you asking Miao Miao to do?" She's at home watching her brother."
Seeing Jiang Yu's wrinkled face, Hui Niang still told him
"Really? Can two big buns talk? Can you walk? As soon as Jiang Yu heard that Miao Miao was watching her younger brother at home, he immediately became interested
I suddenly remembered the last time I saw two little buns, small, fleshy, and laughing when I touched them, not to mention how cute it was
"Daughter-in-law, you talk to Young Master Jiang here first, I'll go outside to say hello" Fan Ming on the side saw that the people outside were about to break the threshold, and seeing that the situation was not good, he didn't wait for Hui Niang to answer, and immediately went out to appease the people in the village
Hui Niang smiled, "I can walk a few steps, but it's just unstable, but I can't call people yet" Speaking of the two sons, Hui Niang's heart softened, and her face was full of maternal brilliance, Jiang Yu was almost stunned
"Really? Then you take me over, I'm going to play with two little buns" Jiang Yu had pleading in his eyes
"This Ai wait a while, you can sneak out from behind, go to my house, your cousin is married, and I still have to be busy with a lot of things, you also see it outside, I can't leave" Hui Niang said is not a lie, now the prefect is here, she estimates that there will be more people coming, and there will be a lot of people eating and drinking at that time
Jiang Yu let out a disappointed sigh, then said goodbye to Hui Niang, and went to Hui Niang's house from the back door with the two little guys
It is said that the busy days are the fastest, Hui Niang feels that this sentence is really not true, it has been so long, this day is almost over, the bride has not been picked up, just the questions answered this day, Hui Niang feels that there are more words than in this life, and her voice is about to smoke
I don't know how many cups of water I drank, and I don't know how many times I ran to the toilet, who let these three aunts and eight women in the village keep asking about Pei Muqing's origins, before Hui Niang said to the outside world that she was a distant relative of her mother's family, but now even the prefect came, and for a while, everyone talked about it, and Hui Niang naturally had to try her best to lie
I was almost exhausted, but I finally stole a space, and there was the sound of firecrackers in front of me, and the bride was picked up
Although the Du family is said to be a married concubine, the pomp and circumstance of this dowry is very large, plus the dowry that Pei Muqing originally sent over, this dowry has been lifted for sixty-four years, although it looks very beautiful, but as for what good things are contained in it, no one knows
These people in Nanye Village didn't envy death, and secretly said that Pei Muqing was so blessed, she married the daughter of a big family in Yunzhou City, and the girls who had loved Pei Muqing before, after seeing this scene, they were also dead
Who gave the young lady of this big family so much dowry? Even if they smash the pot and sell iron, they can't reach it
Jiang Zhifu originally had some pimples in his heart, but he didn't expect that Du Ping and his wife were so knowledgeable, and they actually gave so many dowries, and their faces finally looked better
In Yunzhou City, when a concubine marries, there are generally more than 100 dowries, and those with more difficult family backgrounds are only a few dowry, and these more than 60 are considered very good in the eyes of Jiang Governor's Mansion
After the bride was sent to the new house, the wedding banquet immediately began, and after a busy day, it finally reached the critical moment, after Hui Niang and several people beckoned people to the table, she immediately found an opportunity to slip away, went to the kitchen to scoop some things, and went to see the bride
After a busy day, Hui Niang couldn't eat anything at all, her throat hurt and hurt, her voice was hoarse, and it was not good to talk too much
When she went to the new house, Du Suho's nurse immediately came out, looked at Hui Niang a little familiar, and said, "This lady, may I ask who you are?" ”
"Oh, I'm Mu Qing's brother's neighbor, my name is Liu Huiniang, we met in the front hall just now, my aunt is not impressed?" After Hui Niang finished speaking, she put the plate in her hand on the table, "I'll come over and bring some food to the bride."
Of course, it's not Hui Niang's real purpose, she wants to see the bride and be lazy by the way
"Oh, that's the case, thank you Lady Liu," Granny Du said with a smile
Hui Niang peeked at the bride covered with a red hijab a few times, chatted a few words with Du Niang, and then said goodbye and left, before leaving, Du Niang also stuffed a red envelope to Hui Niang, which made Hui Niang stunned for a long time before accepting it with a smile
"Nurse, who is the one who came just now?" said Du Suho
Mrs. Du walked over with a smile, "It's my uncle's neighbor, surnamed Liu, I saw her when I was in the young lady's church before, and she looks like a very enthusiastic person."
If there are such neighbors in the future, I guess my uncle will go somewhere, right?
"By the way, miss, are you hungry? The lady brought you some food just now, and you haven't eaten anything this day, so while your aunt didn't come, you should eat some to cushion your stomach first, don't go hungry," Du Niangniang cared
"No need, let's put it somewhere first, Xianggong... He hasn't come here yet, and it's always unruly for me to eat first" Besides, she's been hungry for a day, and she can't eat anything at all
"Na Cheng" saw that Du Suhe didn't want to eat, and Du Niang was not reluctant, and quietly accompanied her
It didn't take long for there to be another knock on the door outside, this time it was Aunt Qin, who was also here to bring food to Du Suhe, the young grandmother
Granny Du opened the door and let Aunt Qin in, "You are..."
"Oh, you are Grandma Du next to the young grandmother, I am Aunt Qin, the servant of the young master's family, it was the young master who ordered me to send some food to the young grandmother, the family is busy, if you forget to send it, don't be surprised by the young grandmother" Du Suhe's dowry, Pei Muqing had already told a few people in the family before
When Aunt Qin said this, Du Suho's heart immediately became excited
Not to mention that Du Suho was excited, Du Granny was also in tears, "Really? This is really troublesome Sister Qin, come in."
Aunt Qin smiled and said that it was okay, and when she turned around, she just wanted to put the plate on the table, when she saw something on the table, he smiled, "It seems that someone is more thoughtful than our young master."
Grandma Du was afraid that Aunt Qin would misunderstand, so she immediately explained, "This... Sister Qin, this is the young master's neighbor, Madame Liu, who sent it over earlier... The "
"Don't worry, I won't misunderstand, and it's hard for Mrs. Hui Niang to even worry about this little thing, by the way, young grandma, you should eat somewhat, this winter is cold, things can't be put away, the young master will come over for a few hours" Aunt Qin persuaded
Many people persuaded him, which was much more useful than what Du Nanniang said alone, and now Du Suho was no longer polite
That Fang Du finally met a person who inquired about the situation, and finally stopped holding her shelf, and enthusiastically inquired about the Pei family's affairs with Aunt Qin, such as how many rooms Pei Muqing has, how many maids, how many people in the family and so on
Aunt Qin was a sincere person, and when she heard it, she laughed, "Sister Du, what question are you asking Young Grandma Ao doesn't know that the young master is from the Pei family?" How many people are there? Just me and my wife, as well as Steward Fang, and the two little girls I just bought."
"Isn't it true that Uncle he doesn't have a room and a concubine?" Granny Du asked again, although she heard clearly, she still wanted to confirm again
Aunt Qin was a little puzzled, she said it so clearly, why did Granny Du still ask? "Our young master has always been alone, where did the concubine come from?" After finishing speaking, I finally understood what this Du Granny meant
Mrs. Du was about to ask in detail, but Du Suho stopped her
Granny Du immediately stopped talking, looked at Aunt Qin and laughed twice, Aunt Qin said: "Young grandma doesn't have to, our young master is one in a hundred, such a man can't be found with a lantern, and you will enjoy the rod in the future."
If this were someone else, he would definitely yell at Aunt Qin, but Du Suhe was not that kind of person, and said with a shy smile: "Aunt Qin will make fun of me"
Aunt Qin talked for a long time in the new house, and when she saw that it was not early, she took the tray and said goodbye, "Young grandma, I'll go down first, I'm still busy here, I can't stay longer."
Du Suho nodded and called softly: "Nurse..."
Granny Du answered, and then stuffed a red envelope prepared in advance into Aunt Qin's hand, "This... What is it for? "Aunt Qin still can't react
Seeing that Aunt Qin was confused, Granny Du smiled and said: "This is a red envelope for you, this big day, naturally you have to be happy"
Aunt Qin sighed twice, and after accepting it, she turned around and left
As soon as Aunt Qin left, Grandma Du sighed: "Fortunately, the Bodhisattva blessed, so that Miss found a good home"
Du Suho, who was wearing a red hijab, blushed even more, scolded Du Niangniang with a smile, and immediately waited quietly for Pei Muqing to arrive
The wedding lasted until late at night, but fortunately, after the wedding banquet, Hui Niang and his wife had already found the opportunity to sneak back early, otherwise they would have to be tired to death if they were busy
