Chapter Ninety-Nine
Chapter Ninety-Nine
Chen Mo was taken aback by Mu Yu's sullen behavior, came back to his senses, and immediately sneered: "Yo, are you a guest appearance as a domineering president?" ā
Mu Yuwen laughed and said: "I don't need to make a cameo, I'm already the president." ā
After speaking, Mu Yu smiled and ordered the pot of sauerkraut fish on the table, and said seriously: "This pot of fish has been contracted by me, you eat it while it's hot." ā
Chen Mo smiled dumbly, and said casually: "You, the president, are too picky." People still contracted a fish pond to give away, and you just brought the fish to me and sent it to me? ā
Mu Yu said with a smile: "No way, the economic crisis market is sluggish, and there is no balance in the president's wallet." ā
Chen Mo quipped: "Then don't charge a lot of money, let me take care of you." Anyway, you are so handsome, and you also meet the standards of a little white face. ā
After speaking, Chen Mo pushed the stack of peanuts on the table in front of Mu Yu, and said with a smile: "Come, eat more peanuts, uncle, I like to be a little fatter." ā
Mu Yu looked down at the plump, fried peanuts, couldn't help but shake his head, and sighed: "You are not more generous than me, I have contracted a pot of fish, and your peanuts are still sent by the hotel." ā
Chen Mo smiled and said seriously: "It doesn't matter." We're both going to get engaged anyway. Since you have been abducted into the bowl by me, why should I waste money on you. The money saved is going to the second grandmother to find the junior! ā
A word fell, and without waiting for Mu Yu to answer, the two beauties who passed by outside the private room couldn't help but roll their eyes when they heard the words coming out of the private room, and scolded loudly: "Scumbag! ā
Chen Mo, who was joking, was speechless for a moment, and looked at Mu Yu, who was secretly smiling, Chen Mo said helplessly to the waiter in the private room standing outside: "The dishes are all finished, right?" Close the door for us. ā
The waiter standing outside immediately closed the door.
Mu Yu calmly mended the knife and said: "It's useless to turn it off, your image of a scumbag has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people!" ā
Chen Mo: "......"
You have been poor for a few words, and Chen Mo analyzed his doubts for Mu Yu while eating. He always felt that in addition to the little young model, there must be someone who wanted the whole Zhang Chu and Hua Aijiang, and this person's status in the circle was not ordinary, at least his words were very effective. can make those gossip media and marketing accounts ignore Zhang Chu and Hua Aijiang's personal feelings, and jump out one after another.
Mu Yuruo unconsciously gave Chen Mo a chopsticks egg yolk baked pumpkin, and said casually: "People like them, they think that after being in the line for a long time, they feel that their connections are bigger than the sky, so they want to use this to suppress people." But I don't know that although there are rules in this world that are like interlacing mountains, there is also a reason that big fish eat small fish and small fish eat shrimp. The small shrimp has been jumping for a long time, attracting the attention of the small fish, and it is not uncommon to be eaten in one bite. ā
Chen Mo, who was fishing for fish fillets in the basin, slowed down his movements thoughtfully, and Mu Yu said, "This dish is really good. Sweet and salty, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. You eat more. ā
As he spoke, he directly held up his chopsticks and put an egg yolk baked pumpkin to Chen Mo's mouth.
Chen Mo said "hmm", put the egg yolk baked pumpkin into his mouth, and squinted his eyes at Mu Yu.
"Boss Mu's words just now are very meaningful. Could it be your ......?"
Mu Yu chuckled and shook his head, and said, "To deal with this kind of person, you don't need the Mu family to take action personally. Naturally, there will be people who will observe what they say. He was only slightly expressing his dislike for some people.
Mu Yu was too lazy to say the rest of the words. However, Chen Mo can also make up for it automatically.
He glanced at Mu Yu hehehe, and said with a smile: "It seems that we will be regarded as people with backers in the future." ā
Mu Yu smiled silently.
The two had dinner and went to watch a movie again, and they struggled until about five o'clock in the afternoon, first driving back to Chen's house to pick up Chen's father and Chen's mother, and then returning to Mu's house.
The Mu family's three-room population in the capital has basically arrived. These are all relatives of the Mu family, and they move around each other more frequently, and their relationship is also very good.
On the day of the official engagement banquet, there will also be a few members of the Mu family's side family in other places who will also rush over. However, the people who come at that time will participate in the engagement banquet as guests, unlike other people in the second room, who can help the house run the wedding banquet to entertain the guests as the host.
The old tailor of the Mu family had already brought over the engagement dress for Chen Mo and Mu Yu to try on. Later, the cook of the Mu family prepared the dishes for the day of the engagement banquet for the host family to try. As for the drinks to be used at the engagement banquet, some of them were made by the Mu family, some of them were purchased from the gluttonous building, and some of them were specially rewarded by the palace after learning the news of the engagement banquet held by the Mu family. In addition, everyone has to discuss the process of the engagement banquet one by one, how to arrange the visiting guests, what kind of people and what kind of people will accompany them, etc., until it is sure that nothing goes wrong and the night is dark.
In the next few days, the Mu and Chen families have been busy, and in a blink of an eye, it is June 6th.
Although it is an engagement, for a family like the Mu family, the engagement process is more troublesome than that of ordinary people getting married.
Early in the morning, Chen Mo was woken up from the bed by Chen's mother.
After washing up and eating breakfast, the relatives and friends of the Chen family also began to come to the door, and everyone didn't say a few words of greeting, and the Mu family's motorcade that came to pick up relatives also arrived. Because both parties to the engagement are men, naturally there will be no custom of the whole family blocking the door when the woman gets married.
Therefore, the best man group of the Mu family smoothly entered the door of the Chen family. The Quanfu people invited by the Mu family also entered the door with engagement clothes and asked the groom to change his clothes.
The relatives of the Chen family couldn't help but gasp when they looked at the engagement dress that was held by Quanfu people on a big red lacquer plate. There is no other reason, just because the engagement dress sent by the Mu family is actually a unicorn dress with five products.
Most of the people of this dynasty will use two ways to hold weddings - one is a Western-style wedding and the other is a Chinese-style wedding. In recent years, with the deepening of the imperial court's efforts to emulate the West's reforms, there are more and more cases where ordinary people choose to wear Western dresses and swear oaths in front of everyone when holding weddings.
However, for the nobles who have a long heritage and claim to be poets, no matter what the current fashion trend is, they will not blindly follow the fashion and forget their ancestors.
Even those who are informal, and act arbitrarily in ordinary life, will automatically and spontaneously abide by the ancient system when it comes to the real big scene. For example, the annual ancestor worship, and even the engagement and marriage of the heirs of the family, which is a major event related to a person's life.
Therefore, the engagement banquet of the Mu Chen family must also follow the ancient rites. Even the engagement dress to be worn at the engagement banquet is a unicorn dress given by the imperial court.
What I have to introduce here is that because this dynasty is still the ruling dynasty of the Ming Zhu royal family, the imperial court's regulations on official uniforms are still very strict with the ancient system.
Although the Mu family is a family, it has abandoned official business in recent decades and has long since ceased to follow the official career. Only the heirs of the family, according to the old custom, will go to the household department to receive or donate an empty official after they reach adulthood. It is also commonly known as shade.
Mu Yu is the eldest son of the Mu family, and of course he is no exception.
Therefore, on such an important occasion as engagement and marriage, only the official of the fourth and fifth grades of the imperial court is eligible to wear the unicorn suit.
This is a real red diameter yarn turf gold embroidered persimmon over-the-shoulder unicorn suit, and every stitch on the clothes is hand-embroidered by a skilled master. Its brilliance and delicate stitches are not comparable to the costumes in the crew that cut corners in their clothing to avoid His Holiness.
Chen Mo's complexion is already whiter than ordinary people, but now wearing this red silk storage plate gold embroidered unicorn suit, his skin is more and more white as jade, and his hair is dyed like ink.
Mu Yu, who pushed the door in, saw that his eyes were almost straight.
The people who followed behind Mu Yu were even more scorching. Especially the artists and directors in the entertainment industry who were invited by Chen Mo to watch the ceremony, and even the teachers of the costume props group, couldn't wait to come forward to touch Chen Mo's clothes and feel the charm of the royal dress in person.
Chen Mo, who was standing in the room, glanced at Mu Yu, who was also wearing a unicorn costume and looked more and more handsome, and nodded with great satisfaction.
Since the Chen family is not proficient in ancient rites, let alone those nobles, the affairs of the engagement banquet are mainly handled by the Mu family, and Chen's father and Chen's mother help on the side.
In this case, the engagement dress is naturally prepared by the Mu family, and when the Mu family prepares the engagement dress, they must not only prepare the unicorn dress, but also prepare the official hat and jade belt boots and so on.
According to Chen Mo's strong request, when the master of the Mu family was preparing the court boots, he quietly sewed a layer of inner height in Chen Mo's court boots. So when Chen Mo put on his engagement dress and stood side by side with Mu Yu, the height of the two was the same.
It couldn't be better o(ā§vā¦)o~
Chen Mo, who finally leveled someone's advantage in height, was a little excited. So when he said goodbye to his parents next, he also looked smiling. The whole person exudes the temperament of a jubilant groom.
Chen's father and Chen's mother were a little congested when they watched - their son who had finally been raised was about to get married, and they were so happy.
But if you think about it another way, it can also be seen as your own son marrying a male daughter-in-law. And this male daughter-in-law not only has a good family background, but also obeys her son, and cooks for her son. Aside from not being able to have children, there is nothing to be picky.
Thinking like this, Chen's father and Chen's mother were happy again.
The auspicious time has arrived.
Everyone got up and followed the Mu family's convoy back to the Mu family's house.
Chen Mo and Mu Yu's engagement banquet was held here.
When the convoy arrived at the Mu family's main house, it was also full of guests and a city. Most of the guests invited to watch the ceremony were nobles who had good friends with the Mu family, as well as partners who had business dealings in the mall, and of course, there were also admirers, all of whom were well-known figures in Huajing City.
Chen Mo and Mu Yu were led from the gate to the main hall of the mansion to meet Old Man Mu and Old Lady Mu. Chen's father and Chen's mother were also led to sit in the top position.
Kowtowed to tea in front of the full house of guests, and Mrs. Mu, who was sitting at the top, and Chen's father and Chen's mother sent red envelopes with smiles again.
After that, it's time to recognize your relatives. Old Man Mu and Old Lady Mu introduced the men and women of the Mu family to Chen Mo respectively, and Chen's father and Chen mother introduced the men and women of the Chen family to Mu Yu.
There are fewer relatives on the Chen family's side, and Mu Yu recognized it in three or two. However, the relatives on the Mu family's side, there are a total of eight or nine rooms in the local and foreign areas, with a total of seventy or eighty people, and the elders, peers, and younger uncles and aunts and sisters-in-law are called down and Chen Mo's head is big.
Fortunately, after recognizing the relatives of the family, the banquet was held. Chen Mo and Mu Yu, as parties to the engagement banquet, had to toast at each table.
At this time, it showed the benefits of Chen Moqian's cup not being drunk and having its own system repair function. knew that Mu Yu had a bad stomach, and he didn't want Mu Yu to drink more. So in the next toast, Chen Mo kept rushing to drink. This posture of swallowing mountains and rivers not only stole the limelight of the groomsmen's group, but even several relatives and friends from the family who were born in the army were shocked by Chen Mo's drinking.
A black-faced uncle with a long beard and a strong body did not believe in evil and fought three bottles of liquor with Chen Mo in succession, and at the end of his face was red, he patted Chen Mo's shoulder thickly, and said, "Okay, this is a man." ā
Chen Mo smiled, looked at Yu Jiaerlang who was lying on the table with a squinting expression, held Mu Yu's hand with his fingers interlocked, and calmly took the wine glass to the next table.
I didn't know that after this engagement banquet, I suddenly had the nickname of "Bacchus" in the family.
