Chapter 243: The Three Daughters Married
May 28th is a good day, the three ladies of the Ye family will be out of the cabinet at the same time today, the entire Cangzhou City, no, it should be the entire Cangzhou, all the people with a little head and face are here, or come to the woman's house, or go to the man's house, everyone comes to drink the wine.
Ling'er, like all brides, was dug up early, washed her face and changed her clothes, and the situation on Zhilan and Zhiyu's side was similar, but they were accompanied by their own mothers, and Ling'er was surrounded by only the maids who made up and the bride who gave them to the bridal, there were only a few maids like the third sister, Chunqiao, and Qiucia Qiuming.
However, the eldest lady seems to be very concerned about the progress here, and sends someone to come over every half a quarter of an hour to take a look, say a few auspicious words happily, and explain the joy of the bride to be dedicated, of course, do not forget to ask Ling'er for red envelopes.
After dressing up, Ling'er sat on the bed with a complicated and heavy crown, ate a few steamed buns with the help of Chunqiao, and then waited.
In the middle of the hour, a happy lady outside came in with a smile: "Come, Miss, the sedan chair is at the door!" ”
Ling'er stood up by herself with Chunqiao's hand, and the bride in the house hurriedly stopped her: "Oh, miss, don't worry, this is the bride urged by the groom's family to marry, give a little silver reward, we can't get on the sedan chair yet, otherwise it will make people laugh." ”
Ling'er had to sit for a while, and after waiting for two quarters of an hour, the bride came to urge and reward again, until the third time, the bride who was with Ling'er smiled and said: "Miss, put the hijab on, let's get on the sedan chair!" ”
Chunqiao put a hijab on Ling'er, helped Ling'er out of the house slowly, got on the soft sedan chair that had been waiting for the door for a long time, and walked slowly to the hanging flower door between the front and back yards.
The bride is in front of the road. Chunqiao and the third sister walked on both sides of the soft sedan chair, and Qiu Cicada and Qiu Ming followed. Near the Hanging Flower Gate, Chun Qiao whispered, "Miss." Miss Zhilan and Miss Zhiyu's soft sedan also arrived. ”
Coming out of the weeping flower door, several young ladies were helped by the maids to board their respective big red sedan chairs, Ling'er lifted half a hijab, swept out, and saw the old lady, the eldest lady, the second lady, the eldest uncle, the second uncle, and several cousins and cousins were all there, and the eldest lady and the second lady were crying. Holding his own daughter and not letting go.
The bride urged a few times, and they cried and sent their children to the sedan chair, and the suona sounded. The firecrackers rang out in unison, and the thick smoke of the firecrackers almost enveloped the three sedan chairs.
"Oops, who stepped on my foot!"
"Oh, look at it!"
There was chaos in the smoke. The maids on both sides of the sedan chair were squeezed around. The lively guests laughed next to them, and several sedan chairs scurried dozens of meters in the smoke to see the situation.
The bride on the side of Ling'er's sedan chair shouted: "Hey, little girl, don't go wrong here." ”
A few little girls followed, and a maid who was very similar to Chunqiao's body shape and dress ran over and followed behind Xi Niang, Xi Niang winked at her, she quickly lowered her head and followed two steps behind. Ling'er didn't bother to look at it, anyway...... It's replaced. The eldest lady really has the ability.
Today, the main gate of the Ye Mansion was wide open, several sedan chairs came out of the Ye Mansion one after another, and the three Ye family men were waiting at the door on a high-headed horse, Zhilan's eldest brother Ye Shiping sent a sedan chair to Zhilan, Zhilan's second brother Ye Shilian sent a sedan chair to Ling'er, and Zhiyu's third brother Ye Shisheng sent a sedan chair to Zhiyu.
Because today's husbands of the three young ladies all live in Cangzhou City, the Jia family is next door to the prefect's mansion in the north of the city, the Wu family is in the east and north direction, and the Hou Mansion Li family is also in the southwest near the city gate.
The three are just in different directions, the straight-line distance is not far, but there are rules for marriage in the city, and the sedan chair generally has to go around the city for a week, but today the three sedan chairs go out at the same time, and there are many to accompany the marriage, in order to avoid confusion, several families only need to go around the city for half a week, so the three sedan chairs go out in the opposite direction of the husband's house first, and go back in half a circle.
The sedan chair to go to Jiafu comes out of Yefu and walks to the south first, goes to the south gate and follows the city wall to the west to go around half a circle to the north city gate, and then follows the main north-south road to the gate of Jiafu.
The sedan chair going to the Hou Mansion came out of the Ye Mansion in the opposite direction, first to the north city gate, and went around half a circle to the east along the city wall.
Cangzhou City was full of people standing on both sides of the road, all of them standing on tiptoe to see what the delicate bride looked like? Naughty children followed on both sides of the sedan chair, chasing after them for candy and money.
The bride with the box smiled and walked all the way, causing the children to rush wildly, the dowry behind the sedan chair was lifted into a string, the dowry after walking a few miles in front of the dowry has not yet gone out, and a walk is still three strings, such a grand occasion Cangzhou City is the first time, it is really eye-opening.
Of course, it was the residents of Cangzhou who opened her eyes, but Ling'er didn't feel much, she saw through the gap in the hijab that the direction of the sedan chair was indeed north, and her heart was a little sour, she gritted her teeth, it's just that the matter has come to this, what are you sad about?
"Papapa~~~~" There was another burst of firecrackers outside, and someone outside laughed: "It's wrong, it's wrong, it's not the bride of Jiafu, it's the Hou Mansion's family." ”
Have you already arrived at the gate of Jiafu? Ling'er couldn't help but lift her hijab, pick up the corner of the curtain and peek out, as soon as she raised her eyes, she happened to see the cold and upright figure standing at the door of Jiafu wearing a red wedding dress.
Look at his happy face today, even his face that usually doesn't have many expressions is full of smiles, I have to admit that in fact, he is very handsome, very handsome, he is not the kind of suave and suave, but he is definitely a cold and handsome guy, and he looks better when he smiles......
Ling'er's eyes were a little blurry for some reason, and the bride next to the sedan chair was horrified when she saw the slightly raised curtains, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop: "Miss, you must not lift your head, it's unlucky!" ”
The moment Ling'er put down the curtains, Jia Haoyang, who was dressed in a wedding dress, suddenly turned around, he looked at the passing sedan chair and frowned slightly, for some reason, he had a strange feeling in his heart, he beckoned someone to come over: "Article, whose sedan chair is that?" ”
Jia Wenwen looked at it: "Oh, it is also from the Ye Mansion, it is the sedan chair of the eldest lady of the Ye family, and it was sent to the Hou Mansion in the south of the city." ”
"Hou's?"
Jia Wenwen joked with a smile: "What, young master, can't you wait for half an hour?" Don't worry, no one dares to snatch your bride, just wait with peace of mind! ”
Ling'er's sedan chair slowly walked past the door of Jiafu, watching the figure gradually disappear, Ling'er took a deep breath, lifted her hijab, clenched her fists, and that's it, the fate of our life is over.
The sedan chair blows all the way to the east city gate, and when passing near the martial arts, a group of people suddenly surged up on the side, both adults and children, and they just surrounded the sedan chair to like candy and reward money.
The bride gave it again and again, but there were too many people coming, and they asked for it here and there, and they couldn't disperse at all, and the people who carried the sedan chair were also tired, so they simply stopped the sedan chair and went to reward money by the way.
In the chaos, a figure quickly flashed into the sedan chair, and Ling'er had already taken off the phoenix crown and Xia curtain, changed her clothes and waited for her.
"Miss, you really don't want such beautiful clothes?"
"Put it on, and go back to Cangping when it's over, you know?"
"I know, I know, where are you going, young lady?"
"I've got my own place to go, you don't care."
"Then how did I find you?"
"I'll come to you in the future, don't talk nonsense, put on your clothes quickly, don't show your stuffing before you get to the Hou Mansion, you know?"
"Okay, okay, really, you don't want such a nice person, I really don't know what you want?"
Ling'er helped her sort it out, and while no one was paying attention, she slipped out of the sedan chair and blended into the crowd. (To be continued......)
