Chapter Ninety-Eight, Marriage Ceremony

A few days later, Jiaojiao's father was lying in the hospital.

Jiaojiao's mother peeled an apple and handed it to him, and said, "I said, old man, you have lost all my face, and in ten days and half a month, my son will marry Shanshan, but you are at this juncture...... Alas, stubborn old man. ”

Lao Wan raised his head and said, "I'm not fine. ”

Wan Jiaojiao's brother Wanda said: "But the first month of the New Year fell to the ground, how inauspicious. ”

Chen Xu, Wan Jiaojiao, Xia Sangzhi, and Xiaowen hugged Lao Wan's side.

Chen Xu stroked this Wan Jiaojiao's arm and said, "Sister Jiaojiao, your father is awake." ”

Jiaojiao's mother said, "Jiaojiao, call your dad quickly." ”

"Dad......."

Lao Wan showed a happy look on his face and said: "Although I didn't win the first place in this competition, my daughter recognized me, and it's okay." ”

Jiaojiao's mother twisted the old man and said, "It's not just that the daughter recognizes you, didn't we get a good son-in-law." ”

Wan Jiao's petite bird rubbed Chen Xu's arm obediently.

Lao Wan couldn't get off the stage, looking at Chen Xu, his face seemed to be beaten to death.

"Uncle......."

"Well, the young man didn't expect that you did have two tricks, and I convinced you."

"Uncle praised it, but there was nothing in it."

Lao Wan looked at Chen Xu's modest appearance, although he was young, but he had a master's demeanor, he still liked it in his heart, and said, "When will you marry my daughter." ”

Wanda said: "Dad, there is an elder brother who has not yet married his sister-in-law, and his sister will marry first." ”

Lao Wan looked at Chen Xu and said: "By the way, listen to Jiaojiao, you kid is a rare genius in Feng Shui Xuanmen, and he has already cultivated the third-order Zhigeng Dragon Hunting Low level at a young age, so powerful, Jiaojiao's wedding will be presided over by you, I don't have to find someone again." ”

Chen Xu agreed.

Wanda said with a happy expression on his face: "Mr. Chen, you are my idol, my idol who studied with Jiaojiao, and I will tell my good news to Shanshan." ”

Chen Xu hurriedly said: "It's only been more than ten days since your wedding date, according to the Chinese tradition of marriage, during this time, you can't see each other, but after a period of delay, tomorrow, tomorrow you will have to give a dowry to show solemnity and respect for the woman's parents." ”

"yes, how did I forget."

Walking out of the door of the hospital, Xiaowen said: "Big brother, after Sister Jiaojiao's eldest brother marries a girlfriend, are you going to marry Sister Jiaojiao?" ”

Chen Xu didn't know how to answer.

"Big brother, will you ignore me when the time comes."

Chen Xu gently wiped the tears on Xiaowen's face and said, "Silly Xiaowen, how could I ignore you, I won't ignore you at any time, but you don't want to treat me like this, I feel distressed." ”

Xia Sangzhi also stood on the spot, looking at Chen Xu with tears in his eyes, Chen Xu's heart was moved.

Xiaowen's tears and Xia Sangzhi's affectionate gaze made Chen Xu make a decision in his heart: I am still young now, and Sister Jiaojiao is only twenty-four years old, so I can't let Xia Sangzhi and Xiaowen be sad if I don't think about it first. ”

Chen Xu has not yet presided over a wedding ceremony for the newlyweds, and now he wants to hold a perfect and unforgettable traditional Chinese wedding for Wanda, who admires him very much, and his delicate brother and Shanshan girl.

As early as the pre-Qin era, it was recited by the people, and among the 300 poems collected by the sage Confucius, there was such an 89 "Hooligans", which was written in a poem: The hooligans are the ones who hold the cloth trade silk. Bandits come to trade silk, and I seek to come. Send the son to wade Qi, as for Dunqiu. I am scared, and there is no good matchmaker. There will be no anger, and the autumn will be for a period of time.

Take advantage of the other wall, in the hope of recovering the customs. I didn't see the resumption, and I was crying and rippling. Seeing the resumption of customs, laughing and talking. Erbul Zhen, no blame. Bring the chariot with me, and bribe me to move.

Although this "Hooligans" is written in the feudal period, the women at the bottom of the accusation of unhappy marriages and non-people entrusted to them, and the contempt for the "hooligans" in the Qin Dynasty and the former alliance, but in general outlines the ritual of giving gifts and welcoming relatives in the pre-Qin period.

The times are constantly changing, and novel elements are constantly blended along with the historical trend, but for a period of time before marriage, the woman still has a selective marriage in the boudoir, and the man hires him, and it is indeed a customary and timeless ceremony to hold a wedding to welcome the family

The next day, Chen Xu, as the third-party officiant, gave a letter of appointment to the married woman.

Wan Jiaojiao said: "Then what kind of dowry do you want to give?" ”

Chen Xu said: "In our hometown of Puning, because the concept of clan relatives is relatively strong, when we get married, as the man's lifelong priority, I generally have to give the woman three kinds of gold. ”

Xia Sangzhi said: "Brother Chen Xu is those three kinds of gold. ”

"The head is the same as earrings, the ancients have said: Hu'er cooks carp, Minghuan clever daughter-in-law, earrings are a symbol of women's elegance and dignity, the second kind of gold is a bracelet, there is a saying in the Book of Poetry: the hand of the son, and the son grows old, the bracelet is a token that the husband and wife enjoy with their white hands, and accompany them for a lifetime, the third gold is of course a gold necklace, in some places, the old generation said: auspicious three treasures, the gold necklace is a big treasure, the husband looks at the gold necklace of his wife, and the affection lingers in the heart."

Xiaowen nodded and said, "Big brother, I also want three kinds of gold." ”

Everyone laughed.

Wanda was a little embarrassed and said: "When I proposed to Shanshan half a year ago, I already put the gold ring on his finger, Shanshan is not a material girl, I think this is vulgar." ”

Wan Jiaojiao said: "Brother, is it possible that you are not prepared, be careful that after your sister-in-law passes the door, she will ask you for three kinds of gold." ”

Chen Xu said: "Since you say so, then you can avoid it, after all, this is our tradition." ”

Wan Jiaojiao said: "My sister-in-law is a good woman, she doesn't value the court, status and money, she only values my brother's character, and she really loves my brother, where to find such a good woman, now on a blind date variety show, there are girls who are ashamed to claim on stage that they would rather cry in the BMW Bridge car than laugh on the bicycle." ”

Xia Sangzhi said: "Sister Shanshan doesn't pay attention to materials, but she can't use nothing. ”

"Both of our parents are conservative older generations who attach great importance to history and tradition, and do not pay attention to money, but pay special attention to cultural connotation and meaning. ”

Chen Xu said: "There are nine kinds of dowry gifts necessary for traditional weddings in ancient times, namely combs, rulers, money boxes, wishful names, mirrors, buckets, scissors, and abacus. ”

Everyone expressed surprise and said, "Ah, I didn't think that these common things in life have any meaning or cultural connotation." ”
