When they returned in the afternoon, Shen Bin and his son really brought the good news that the eldest princess and his wife nodded in agreement. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info But after all, there was a wedding banquet not long ago, and after obtaining the approval of the eldest princess, the two families jointly decided that this family recognition banquet would only invite relatives and friends on both sides.

So, just two days after being free, Zhihua put into the busy preparatory work again.

The auspicious day is set in three days. Early in the morning, the Weiwang Mansion and the Eldest Princess's Mansion both opened their doors and hung strings of festive firecrackers, which crackled for half an hour before stopping.

According to Jing'an customs, Shen Bin, the king of Wei, had to personally come to the door to bring his righteous daughter Minyi into his home and keep her in the house for three days. During these three days, the two families should not be killed, and no blood should be seen, otherwise it will be regarded as unlucky. After the expiration of the three days, the Weiwang Mansion held a banquet to entertain relatives and friends, and Minyi had to serve tea in public at the banquet, and officially changed his name to be his father-in-law, and the ceremony of recognizing relatives was successfully completed.

At the beginning of the year, Shen Bin led hundreds of monks from Zhangguo Temple to arrive outside the princess's mansion by the emperor's carriage, and the eldest princess and her husband went out to greet each other in person.

In the confession ceremony, this step is very particular. In order to prove to the world that the older party is not forcing the juniors, they cannot step into the other party's house when they come to pick them up, and can only wait outside the door. And the righteous daughter Minyi, in order to show her willingness, needs to walk out of the boudoir where she lives alone, and show her parents at the door and bow three times in parallel, in order to show that she will not forget the grace of her biological parents. Only after her parents nodded her approval could she get into her stepfather's carriage.

After a brief greeting, an old monk with white eyebrows and beards walked out of the monks, put his hands together and sang a Buddha horn, and loudly announced that the auspicious time had come. The rest of the monks immediately sat on the ground and chanted in unison to pray for blessings. This step is not necessary and can be omitted by those whose families are not well-off. However, the higher the status of the monks invited, the greater the number of people, symbolizing the importance that the righteous father attaches to the righteous daughter. If it is a righteous son, after the blessing ceremony, the other party will be eligible for the same inheritance as the son-in-law.

After reciting a scripture, Minyi's figure slowly appeared at the gate. She was wearing a regular dress of the county lord's rank, covering her face with a light veil, revealing only a pair of big eyes full of autumn water, slightly reddened.

"Minyi, an unfilial daughter, wants to worship King Wei as her father-in-law and give her permission to her parents." After the crisp sound finished the routine prayer, she knelt respectfully to the ground facing her parents and kowtowed.

"If you recognize the other party as your father, you will be sincere and filial in the future, so as to fulfill your responsibilities as a child." The eldest princess admonished.

"My daughter listens to the teachings." Minyi kowtowed again.

Knowing that it is a good thing to have one more person to love his daughter, Krimu feels that it is not a taste in his heart. The lines that were originally prepared couldn't be spoken, so he simply said according to his heart: "I'll come back after three days, and don't keep running to his house if I have nothing to do in the future." You have to remember that you are my daughter......"

"Uh-huh......" The eldest princess cleared her throat to interrupt his out-of-tune words, and gave him a warning look.

Minyi's faint reluctance was all washed away by her father's childish performance, she couldn't help but laugh and kowtowed to the last one.

"My daughter obeyed."

After the lecture was over, after Minyi got up, Wei Changzhi held the tray in his hand and bowed down to present it to the eldest princess. The eldest princess took the tray and lifted the red silk covering the door, and inside was a small dress that Minyi had worn when she was young.

She gave this thing to Shen Bin with both hands, and said in her mouth: "The little girl is stubborn, if there is anything wrong in her words and deeds in the future, I hope that Lord Wei will not hesitate to discipline her." ”

This move means entrusting his daughter's discipline to the other party from now on, Shen Bin did not dare to slack off, solemnly took the tray with both hands, and saluted: "Bin should live up to His Highness's trust, and from now on he will treat Minyi as his own." ”

Accepting it, he invited Minyi into the carriage, and he turned over a steed himself. Bidding farewell to the eldest princess and his wife, Shen Bin turned the horse's head and led the team back.

The monks got up and followed, chanting sutras and praying all the way until they returned to the palace of the king of Wei.

Back at the door of the house, Shen Ze and his wife had been waiting outside the door for a long time.

Zhihua personally took Minyi off the carriage, the brother and sister-in-law and the sister-in-law greeted each other at the door, and Shen Bin said some teaching words such as "friendship and brotherhood" according to the rules, and led the three of them to enter through the gate, and the recognition ceremony was over.

At lunch, a large family gathered together, laughing and laughing. There are Bi Tuo and Min Yi playing with treasures in the banquet, and the meal is happy and warm.

After the meal, everyone sent Minyi to the small courtyard specially prepared for her. This courtyard is located in the middle of the entire Weiwang Mansion, the artificial lake in the palace passes through it, and a small pond is specially drilled in the courtyard garden, raising a pond of pleasing koi fish. Minyi liked it at first sight, just because she had several poisonous herbs in her hands that could only survive in water, which were suitable for planting in a pond.

Shen Bin heard that she wanted to grow poison and did not object, but solemnly told her to be careful and not to eat it by mistake.

The boudoir of her daughter's house, Shen Bin and Shen Ze are inconvenient to step into. After talking in the courtyard for a while, the father and son took their leave.

Zhihua didn't rush to leave, took Minyi's hand affectionately, and took her to see the boudoir she had arranged for her.

"Wow......" As soon as she entered the door, Minyi couldn't help but exclaim. Ah Hua, when did you bring the things in my room? ”

It turned out that this room, both in structure and furnishings, was no different from Minyi's boudoir in the princess's mansion, and even the subtleties such as the carvings on the bed were exactly the same. What's even more rare is that many eldest princesses have carefully selected rare treasures to be placed in Minyi's room, and they are also available in this room. It's no wonder Minyi thinks it's all from her own house.

Zhihua smiled, picked up a fruit plate ornament carved from jade and handed it to her: "This is someone to imitate, the one in your room is the deceased work of the wood master, it is priceless, how dare I go to your house to move it?" If I bump into it, I can't afford to lose it if I sell it. ”

After starting, Minyi noticed the difference from some subtleties, not only did she not dislike it, but asked with great interest: "Who are you looking for to imitate?" Although the carver is not as good as the wood master, it is also very rare. If I hadn't looked closely at it in my hand, I wouldn't have been able to tell the difference. ”

"I don't know any skilled craftsmen, these are all made by the husband." Zhihua picked up a delicate blue and white porcelain vase and introduced it to her: "This is the real thing." I heard that there is this kind of Jingtai kiln porcelain vase in your room, and my father-in-law tried his best to buy this vase from an old craftsman who was secretly hidden by him back then. Otherwise, we'll have a hard time finding you a replica. ”

A burst of warmth welled up in Minyi's heart, and she said with feeling: "My father-in-law and brother-in-law are so kind to me......

Zhihua was jealous and said, "What, isn't my sister-in-law good to you?" ”

Minyi hurriedly took her hand and said coquettishly: "Of course it's good!" Ah Hua is the best ......" (To be continued. )
