The twenty-fourth Xu Fu wedding banquet

Under the preparation of the Xu Mansion day by day, the day of Xu Fu's marriage finally came, and no one in the entire Xu Mansion could late this day, and they all got up early to prepare. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Dong Xiaoyou, surrounded by Biluo and others, chose a slightly lighter pink and white wide-sleeved Xiangshui skirt, after all, it was her eldest brother who married his wife, she didn't need to dress up too luxuriously, otherwise it would be bad to steal the limelight from the newcomer. Yi'er tied a green silk ribbon to her drooping hair, and then inserted a slightly smaller pearl green feather hairpin into the long hair at the back of her head, which was radiant.

"What are the guests today?" Dong Xiaoyou patted his little face with a little powder, and asked anxiously.

"Yes, miss." Ye Er replied.

"When the time comes, what if I don't play well?" She was a little flustered again.

"Miss, it's okay, with Miss's ability, how could something go wrong?" Ye Er and other maids can listen to her play the jade zither almost every day, naturally she feels that there is no problem, but Dong Xiaoyou herself is very nervous, she has not felt like a great enemy for a long time, it seems that when she took the amateur tenth level exam before, she was not so nervous.

"Okay, Miss, you've asked these questions several times, don't worry about it, it's the wedding of the eldest son, and it's not your wedding, don't worry about the problem." Biluo gently patted Miss Four's shoulder.

"Ah~~~ But people are so nervous." After Dong Xiaoyou was dressed neatly, he sat on the edge of the couch again, raised his hands high, and made a lazy appearance, "I'm really afraid that if I don't play well, I will embarrass my father and make my eldest brother lose face." ”

"Miss, don't tilt your head back, be careful that the hairpin you just put on will fall off for you again." Meier reminded.

"Yes, yes~~" Dong Xiaoyou sat up straight again, it was still morning, and there was still some time before the divorce banquet began. "Why don't we go to Zhuxiangyuan to see Murong's mother and second sister, as well as Brother Yu." She stood up again.

"Yes, miss." Biluo nodded, and then instructed Ye Er to take the red sandalwood jade zither out and take it, "I will let Ye Er hold the jade zither, and then the young lady can go directly to the front hall with the third lady to attend the wedding banquet." ”

When he arrived at Zhuxiang Garden, Xu Ban was very leisurely, still dancing with a long sword, he just needed to go over and sit on his knees and watch, naturally without any pressure. The Murong clan was already dressed, and was leading the maid to "charge" Xu Jiang to dress up. Today, Murong is wearing a light yellow skirt, the skirt is embroidered with gold threads, the head is covered with a red phoenix hairpin, her face is covered with some thin powder, her eyebrows are faint, and her eyes are slightly applied, she looks a lot younger than usual, she is really charming, and she naturally has a temperament that Central Plains women do not have.

Xu Jiang looked reluctant, and the maid dressed herself in a set of crimson Shu brocade embroidered flower dresses, with a blue-green jade jade hairpin pinned to her head, and a pair of apricot eyes glowing with youthful and beautiful looks, if she could change her temper, I am afraid that she would have married out a long time ago, and she would not be nagged by the people in the house now.

"Murong Mom, you look so young and beautiful~~!" Dong Xiao greeted Murong sweetly.

Murong looked at Dong Xiaoyou carefully, and then the corners of his eyes smiled into a line: "It's still my Rong'er who is the most beautiful, if this dress is seen by those guests, I'm afraid that from tomorrow, our house will be an endless stream of people seeking relatives." ”

"Mother Murong, don't say that......" Dong Xiaoyou's little face turned slightly red, and he lowered his head and whispered.

"yes, yes, you're both pretty and good-looking." Xu Jiang had just finished dressing, with an unhappy expression on her face, she usually only dressed neatly on weekdays, and rarely dressed up deliberately, so she got up early in the morning today to prepare to dress up, which made her very unhappy.

"Second sister, you are so beautiful today!" Dong Xiaoyou looked at Xu Jiang in surprise, this second sister, who is always a boy's temper, was also outstanding in appearance, but when she deliberately dressed up today, she was actually beautiful and moving. "It's worthy of being my second sister~~"

Xu Jiang listened to this slightly boastful sentence, and couldn't help but hold back a smile and gently rubbed the fourth sister's little face, and then said: "Look at what you say, it seems that the second sister is still beautiful because of your light!" ”

"Second sister, don't pull it, don't pull it... Hurt~~! Dong Xiaoyou struggled to protest against Xu Jiang's "atrocity".

Murong looked at the harmonious atmosphere of this pair of sisters, and felt relieved, and looked at them with a smile, the children are gradually growing up, and at the same time, their own gradual aging is inevitable. She sighed: "Alas, when you both marry in the future, how lonely it will be for a mother." ”

"Mother Murong, people don't want to get married!"

"Mother, don't think about those things, no one dares to marry me."

When she said this, Xu Ban had just come back from sword practice, and immediately after hearing it, he also answered: "Mother, you still have a son and me!" ”

Looking at the three sensible children, Murong nodded with tears in his eyes, "Mother should really thank God for giving me three children who are so well-behaved and obedient." Dong Xiaoyou was moved by her words, and she also burst into tears, but this is "well-behaved and obedient"...... It didn't seem to be able to be used on the second sister, thinking of this, she secretly glanced at the second sister. I saw that Xu Jiangben was also a little sentimental, but when she felt Dong Xiaoyou's gaze, she seemed to instantly understand what this fourth sister was thinking about, and her face suddenly changed, and she glared at her viciously, which frightened Dong Xiaoyou and quickly withdrew her gaze.

"It's almost time, third lady, fourth son, second lady, fourth lady." A maid ran in from outside the door.

"Alright, let's go together." Murong got up and led everyone slowly to the front hall.

At this time, the front hall was full of lights, lively and extraordinary, Xu Qian and his wife Mrs. Wang greeted every guest and relative with a smile at the door of the house, and the people who came to congratulate all the famous families in Liaoyang City came, it was simply a sea of people. Dong Xiao saw it, and felt nervous for a while, and Biluo quietly held her hand.

Several major families in Xuansu County have sent people to give gifts, and the Taishou Gongsun Yu of Xuansu County also brought his righteous son Gongsun Leopard to congratulate him. As the hour got closer and closer, the upper and lower levels of the Xu Mansion and the guests who came to congratulate the guests gradually took their seats, Dong Xiaoyou was supposed to be next to Xu Jiang, but because she was going to play the jade zheng, she specially sat down on the side of the chief near Xu Qian and Mrs. Wang, which was slightly eye-catching, although she did not deliberately dress up very flamboyantly today, but also looked delicate and refined. Some curious guests were secretly asking who she was in the house.

When Shen Shi arrived, he rode a horse early in the morning to welcome the bride's eldest brother Xu Fuze, who wore a vermilion crown on his head today, wearing a red dress, and his handsome and delicate face was radiant. Xu Fu was followed by a team of carriages, the middle is a colorful carriage, as the curtain of the carriage was opened by Xu Fu, a woman dressed in a red embroidered dress got off the car, she held the red satin in her hand, after getting off the car, Xu Fu picked up the other end of the red satin, and the bride slowly walked into the lobby of the front hall of the Xu Mansion, followed by a pair of Teng and Yu (bridesmaids and groomsmen...... )。

Dong Xiaoyou watched from a distance, and said curiously: It's strange, shouldn't the ancients let the bride sit in a sedan chair when marrying a bride? Why is this a carriage? And it seems that the bride does not wear a hijab on her head......

As the newcomer slowly walked into the lobby, Dong Xiaoyou slowly saw her appearance clearly, with a pair of clear eyes, a small and delicate nose, and a shallow smile on her mouth. In the middle of the figure, the face seems to be puffed with powder, but the skin must be very good, the age is about seventeen or eighteen years old, the long flowing and beautiful hair is combed into a bun, and there are several carved hairpins on the top of the head, and the colors are relatively gorgeous, Dong Xiaoyou thought to himself: What a beauty, the eldest brother is really blessed, marrying a woman who looks as soft and gentle as water.

"The auspicious time has arrived, the praiser is seated, and the groom will perform the Jiaozi ceremony!" With the shout of the master of ceremonies, I saw Xu Qian and several ladies sitting upright in the chief placket, Xu Fu walked forward and bowed to the elders, Xu Qian gave wine, and a maid in a red dress held the wine glass to Xu Fu, Xu Fu accepted the wine, and then drank it all. Xu Qian's usual majestic expression was gone, but a happy look, but a loving father's appearance. Mrs. Wang, the Zou family, and the Murong family were also very happy and smiling, of course, the happiest among them naturally belonged to the Zou family.

"Bride and groom, bow to the bride!" The master of ceremonies shouted again, Xu Fu and the bride stood opposite each other, with a few cases in between, and then the two slowly knelt down and saluted each other, and the master of ceremonies blessed, "Today you have to be sincere, and the white head is not separated; Married as husband and wife, love will never change! ”

"Do the Wo Ceremony!" Xu Fu took the towel handed over by the maid, wiped his face and hands, and then took the second towel, wiping his face and hands for the bride, Dong Xiaoyou found that this seemed to be just a scene, the towel didn't even touch the bride's face at all, the eldest brother just made a move, but it really shouldn't be touched, otherwise the powder will be wiped off......

"Fourth Miss, you're going to start playing the kite." A maid on the side quietly reminded.

"Oh." When Dong Xiaoyou heard this, he was a little nervous, and his hands began to prepare to stroke the strings. At this time, the master of ceremonies began to recite: "The peach is dying, scorching its flower, the son is returning, and it is suitable for his room." The peach is dying, and there is a fact. The son is home, and his family room is appropriate. The peach is dying, and its leaves are blooming. The son is home, and it is suitable for his family. ”

Dong Xiaoyou stroked the strings, followed the recitation of the master of ceremonies, and began her playing, which was her own adaptation of the song "Jade Mantang" based on the piano music she had heard in a TV series before, the tune was cheerful and festive, which was suitable for this kind of wedding day. With Dong Xiaoyou's playing, the whole hall fell silent, and the guests seemed to hear the fairy sound, indulging in this soft and joyful music and couldn't extricate themselves, like drinking wine. Xu Qian was very satisfied, he smiled and stroked his beautiful beard, looking at the woman who was currently playing with her eyes closed, this was the testimony of his love for Xue'er, thinking of this, Xu Qian's heart loved Xu Rong a little more.

Next is the same prison ceremony, Xu Fu and the bride bowed to each other, and then the next person brought a plate with some fruits and pastries, the two faced each other, and each ate a little, which seems to be a form, Dong Xiaoyou watched them while playing, and the pastries in the plate seemed to be delicious...... No, don't be distracted, she focused again, and threw herself into her playing.

"Bow together!" The couple each holds a gourd scoop full of wine in their hands, and then drinks half of each, and then exchanges, drinks the remaining half of the other party's wine, and finally puts the pair of gourds together, and the bride wraps the gourd with red thread, "The bride and groom, from now on have many blessings and longevity, many sons and grandchildren, share weal and woe, support each other for a lifetime, the red rope is tied together, and never separated!" ”

After these were done, the next person handed Xu Fu a pair of scissors, and Xu Fu cut off a strand of the bride and his own forehead hair, and then the bride took the embroidery bag handed by the maid, put the hair of the two into it, and the two of them pulled the string of the bag tightly, and the master of ceremonies shouted: "This is the husband and wife knotted hair, the blood is blended, the white head grows old together, and the knot is of the same heart forever!" ”

Finally, the master of ceremonies gently folds the hands of the bride and groom together, "holding the hand of the son, and sharing it with the son; Hold the hand of the son, and eat with the son; Hold the hand of the son, and return with the son; Hold the hand of the son, sleep with the son; Holding the hand of the son, and being happy with the son; Hold the hand of the son, grow old with the son! The two looked at each other and sat down at the same table. Dong Xiaoyou was really convinced, but he didn't expect that there were a lot of etiquette.

At this time, the maid just now gently reminded: "Fourth Miss, it's almost time to finish playing." Seeing this, Dong Xiaoyou was a smooth song, and with the cessation of the melodious piano sound, everyone seemed to wake up from it.

"What a song!!" The guests praised and shouted, "What a fairy sound!" ”

Even Gongsun Yu Taishou listened a little distracted, and when he turned around, he found that his righteous son Gongsun Leopard had been secretly giving him a look: "How? Father, the person who plays the jade zheng, this is the fourth daughter of this Master Xu. ”

Gongsun Yu laughed: "It's really a beautiful song, no wonder it makes Wu'er so fascinated!" He said to Gongsun Leopard with understanding, "Good son, don't worry, your father will help you marry such a talented beauty!" ”

At this time, the guests had already begun to stagger, Xu Fu and the bride began to toast the guests one by one, and many guests toasted directly to Master Xu Qian, congratulating him on such a beautiful daughter-in-law, and Old Man Xu Qian also smiled and drank happily. It didn't take long for Taishou Gongsun Yu to bring wine to congratulate him, and then asked, "I don't know if the girl who played the jade zither is the daughter of Master Xu?" ”

"Hehe, Lord Taishou of Gongsun, that is the fourth daughter I love the most, Rong'er."

"Oh...... How old are the years? ”

"After the New Year, it will be fourteen years old."

"Fourteen...... That's not small, but is there a husband and wife? Gongsun Taishou asked explicitly.

"Not yet married."

"Master Xu, you see that this child is not young, it's time to choose a husband."

"Thank you Taishou for your concern, I love my daughter very much, and I will definitely choose the most suitable husband for Rong'er."

"Master Xu, the old man's beloved son Gongsun Leopard is twenty-two this year, although he married a wife the year before last, but he has no heirs yet, you don't think it's as good as ......" finally revealed his true face, Xu Qian was very unhappy in his heart.

"Lord Taishou, today is my eldest son's wedding banquet, let's not mention other things for the time being, Rong'er's marriage, I should be careful, don't bother Lord Taishou." Xu Qian didn't wait for Gongsun Yu to finish speaking and thanked him politely, if it weren't for the fact that Gongsun Yu was the Taishou of Xuansu County, he would have turned his face a long time ago. How can you let your most precious daughter marry a scoundrel like Gongsun Leopard? And still to be a concubine!

"Oh...... Since this is the case, then the old man will not force it, everything will follow fate, haha, everything will follow fate. The smile on Gongsun Taishou's face stiffened slightly, but he immediately eased up, but he secretly scolded Xu Qian in his heart, although the Xu family is quite wealthy, but it is just a family of businessmen, and there is no one in the ancestors who has been a big official in the court, it is not a powerful family at all, and his Gongsun family is the largest famous family in Youzhou, and many children are officials in the court, so appreciative face, this Xu Qian actually dares to refuse! Gongsun Yu Taishou was extremely dissatisfied in his heart, and not long after returning to his seat, he said that he had something important to do, and left with a calm face, Xu Qian also had fire in his heart, so naturally he didn't leave him.

On the way back to Taishou Mansion for the two, Gongsun Leopard provoked: "Father, I didn't expect this Xu Qian to even give you any face!" ”

Gongsun Yu said coldly: "Sooner or later, he will regret it, hmph, in this Xuansu County, there is anyone who dares to disobey me?" ”

When Gongsun Leopard saw it, he was overjoyed, "Father, in fact, I want to marry the second lady of the Xu Mansion, you see ......"

"Good son, do what your father says, I will help you make decisions in this family matter!"

"In this way, the son will thank his father!" Gongsun Leopard listened to it with a courteous expression.
