Chapter 318: Finally getting married
Yesterday, Pan Xu left happily with the contract he had just signed with Zhong Hao to cooperate in brewing shochu!
Pan Xu took one contract with him, but left several contracts. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info when he left, yesterday he said that he wanted to give Zhong Hao the deed of the house on Xieliu Street and the deed of sale of the maids and servants inside.
Now that he has a house, Zhong Hao can't stay anymore, so he took Xiao Tao and Xiao Xing to see his house today. I am about to get married, so this house naturally has to be cleaned up and prepared for marriage.
Pan Xu said that this house is quite elegant, but it is really not a lie, this house is quite elegantly built. However, Pan Xu said that this place is remote, but it is not accurate, although it is in the westernmost part of Tokyo City, but it is close to Wanshengmen, which is also relatively prosperous. It's not as bustling as the central Tokyo area, but it's anything but secluded. It seems that Pan Xu's previous outer room was not the kind of woman who could endure loneliness too much, saying that it was a golden house, but it was too far away, and people didn't want to stay.
This house is a house with three courtyards, rockeries and ponds in the yard are scattered, flowers and bonsai are luxuriant, Pan Xu said that it is quite elegant, but it is not a lie.
The lotus leaf fields on the water surface of the pond, the wonderful rockery shape in the water, the lush trees in the courtyard, and the bonsai of flowers and trees are growing vigorously at this time, all of which make this house more satisfying to Zhong Hao.
Zhong Hao estimated that this house was at least not less than 10,000 yuan, and this Pan Xu gave him a lot of favor.
There were also more than a dozen maids and servants in this house, and Pan Xu gave their deed of sale to Zhong Hao. Of course, it is said that it is a deed of sale, but in fact, it is only a ten-year long deed, and the Great Song Dynasty is not allowed to keep slaves, and it is not allowed to sign a death deed with the Song people. If you want to keep slaves, you can only buy foreign slaves such as Kunlun slaves and Goryeo maids.
Zhong Hao was very satisfied with this house, and after he went back, he told Yang Huaiyu that he wanted to move to his own house.
Now that Zhong Hao has his own house, Yang Huaiyu also feels that he can't keep his eldest brother, so he won't keep it anymore at the moment.
Now that Zhong Hao has a house, he naturally wants to invite Xu Feng to live with him.
Xu Feng has been living in Yang Mansion for a long time, especially after winning the Jinshi, he goes out every day to poetry and wine ~ flow, and when he comes back, he is accompanied by two little girls with witty words, but he is really comfortable!
Since the Shangyuan Festival, he came to live in Yang Mansion, and Xu Feng has also stayed in Yang Mansion for more than three months, and his relationship with the two little girls is already very deep. Although Su Xiaotao in his family is more "town house", Xu Feng still wants to take the two little girls away. As for how to explain to Su Xiaotao after returning home, Xu Feng felt that he could only take one step at a time!
Zhong Hao joked: I must help Xu Feng go back and talk to Su Xiaotao, besides, now that Xu Feng has come to Tokyo this time, how can he bring back a Jinshi title, and bring back two concubines by the way, Su Xiaotao should be able to accept it a little easier to accept when she feels that her husband has won the Jinshi.
Xu Feng is also a jinshi now, and the two little maids can be accepted as concubines by him, so they are naturally very happy. Yang Huaiyu will naturally not be stingy about this matter. He naturally gave them the deed of sale of Xiao Tao and Xiao Xing, who served Zhong Hao, and Xu Feng, the two little maids.
Zhong Hao and Xu Feng went to say goodbye to Mrs. Du, and moved together to the house on Xieliu Street, which Pan Xu gave to Zhong Hao.
Two days later, Yang Huaiyu also moved over. He said that he was bored at home, and after Zhong Hao got married, he was going back to his hometown to save his relatives, but Yang Huaiyu was also going to return to Linzhou, and they didn't have much time to get together. When the time comes, I don't know when we can meet again! After all, Zhong Hao and Xu Feng are going to be civil officials in the future, and when they are officials, I am afraid it will be really difficult to get together!
………………
The process of getting married in the Great Song Dynasty generally has the "six rites" of acceptance, asking for names, najib, recruitment, invitation, and greeting. However, Zhong Hao is a single person, and he doesn't understand these things about getting married, and there are no elders in the family, so he naturally feels a little helpless.
According to Zhong Hao's meaning, he cares about those red tapes at all, and everything is simple when it comes to getting married!
In fact, many of the new science and technology jinshi who were caught on the list got married, and everything was simple, so fast that it would be over in a few days. After all, most of these new science and technology scholars are outsiders, and most of them have no relatives or houses in Tokyo City, and at most there can be a few of them in the same year! I'm afraid they don't understand things such as "Nacai, asking for names, Najib, Najib, inviting people, and welcoming in person", and no one helps to handle them, and they are generally handled by the woman who catches her son-in-law under the list!
There is no one on the man's side, so naturally many things can't be done according to the procedures of the six rites, so naturally everything is simple!
However, Zhong Hao wants everything to be simple, but Fu Ruolan, the sister-in-law who is the person in charge of Zhong Hao and Fu Ruozhu's marriage, doesn't want to be simple! She finally managed a big deal for a while, so she naturally wanted to fully show her ability and live a good life of commanding others. Besides, she thinks that their rich family is also a famous family, and if this family affair is too simple, it is also a little inappropriate.
At the moment, Furuolan insisted that as long as the etiquette that could be done could be done, it must still be done.
Fortunately, Xu Feng is a person who has come over in terms of getting married, and he can help Zhong Hao a lot. Xu Feng is also Zhong Hao's senior brother, and he is a close friend, so he naturally has to work hard to help Zhong Hao. So, busy and busy, Xu Feng directly negotiated many things with Fu Ruolan.
As for some of the decorations in the house and the preparation of some marriage supplies, it was naturally Ke Yao who took Xiao Tao and Xiao Xing to do it.
Ke Yao came to Tokyo on the third day after Zhong Hao moved to this Xieliu Street!
Some time ago, after Ke Yao received Zhong Hao's letter, he heard that he had won the Jinshi, so he was naturally very happy for Zhong Hao. And she thought that her son was in the Jinshi, and naturally she would soon be able to marry Miss Fu, and when they got married, she would naturally be able to stay with her son, but after the son agreed to get married, he would officially accept her through the door, but Yao was very happy! For a while, Ke Yao couldn't wait to go to Tokyo!
However, Zhong Hao also arranged some things for her to do about the financial system of Jingqiang Village in the letter, but Yao couldn't leave immediately.
Ke Yao saw what Zhong Hao said in the letter that she was asked to do, so she naturally immediately did it.
It wasn't until she arranged the things Zhong Hao instructed one by one that she came to Tokyo under the escort of the twenty soldiers from the middle battalion of the Pingxi Army sent by Cui Feng.
Now these soldiers of the Pingxi Army came to Tokyo and heard that their village was married, and they were naturally very happy, so they had to stay and help, and by the way, they would return to Hexi after drinking the happy wine of their own village owner.
Zhong Hao was naturally very happy to see the soldiers of the Pingxi Army under his command, and he was naturally very happy that they wanted to stay and help. I'm short of people in Tokyo City!
These days, buying things for relatives, going to the father-in-law's house to pay a salute, etc., all require a lot of manpower, and these soldiers of the Pingxi Army are their former subordinates, so they are naturally more convenient to use.
After Zhong Hao came to open Jingqiang Village, Ke Yao became the temporary person in charge for more than half a year, and he naturally came to the house to prepare for marriage, and he felt like killing chickens with a knife.
This is also Ke Yao used to be from Shazhou, although there were also Han people, but since the middle and late Tang Dynasty, due to the isolation of the Tubo people, there is very little contact with the Central Plains, because the marriage customs and etiquette are different, because she does not know much about the etiquette of marriage in the Great Song Dynasty, otherwise, there is no need for others, but Yao alone can manage Zhong Hao's wedding smoothly and properly.
With Xu Feng helping to manage it outside, and Ke Yao helping to manage it inside, Zhong Hao suddenly found that he was very leisurely during this time, as if he didn't want to get married.
………………
At the end of April, Tomawaki and his mother were in Tokyo!
Zhong Hao has met Fu Ruozhu since the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15 last year, and he hasn't seen him for more than half a year now! As soon as he heard that Fu Ruozhu had come to Tokyo, Zhong Hao couldn't wait to go to Fu Mansion to meet Fu Ruozhu.
But when they arrived in Fufu, Zhong Hao's sister-in-law Fu Ruolan was not allowed to see her, saying that after the Great Song Dynasty custom "admitted", the groom and the bride could not meet. It is very unlucky to meet on the day of the greeting.
Zhong Hao hadn't seen Fu Ruozhu for more than half a year, so he begged Fu Ruolan to raise his noble hand and let them meet.
Fu Ruolan insisted on her principles very much, and finally used the words that Zhong Hao gave to Fu Ruozhu to persuade her: "'If the two love for a long time, how can it be in the morning and twilight', anyway, they will get married in a few days, and you can look at it whatever you want in the future, I have waited for more than half a year, so what's the harm in waiting for a few more days?!" This is also for your happiness in the future, it's not that the eldest sister is unkind! ”
When his sister-in-law came to this point, Zhong Hao had no choice but to give up, alas, anyway, there are still a few days to get married, just wait a few days.
In the end, Zhong Hao just went to visit his mother-in-law, and then he had to go home.
………………
The fifth year of the emperor's blessing, the sixth day of the fifth month, is a good day for marriage.
The house of Zhong Hao's family on Xieliu Street in Qingfang is covered with red and green, and the lights are colorful, and there is a joyful atmosphere everywhere in the courtyard.
Today is the day Zhong Hao got married.
Zhong Hao was arrested by many sons-in-law in the same year, and they were all operated by the father-in-law's family, and the father-in-law's family was responsible for the marriage and marriage. After all, most of the new science and technology scholars entered Beijing alone to take the exam, and if they wanted to take care of this family matter, they didn't have to do it. Those big families are on the list to catch their sons-in-law, and they want to be the identity of those new science and technology scholars, and they will not ask for more. The identity of a jinshi is enough to withstand those vain things.
However, Zhong Hao's wedding, the man's side didn't use his father-in-law's family.
Although Zhong Hao has no elders in Tokyo City, he has a lot of friends and the same year in Tokyo, and this wedding is also managed by these friends and the same year, but it is more face-saving than those who were caught by the same year.
Today, Zhong Hao and several classmates from Songlin Academy were arranged to the gate of the academy and were responsible for ushering in the send-off! These classmates were all admitted to the Jinshi, and they haven't returned to their hometowns yet, so they were called by Xu Feng to support Zhong Hao's façade. Jinshi greeted the door, this specification is really not low, it is very long for Zhong Hao.
Di Yong, on the other hand, was responsible for arranging banquet seats in the courtyard with a few of his subordinates, and arranging the guests who were welcomed in by a few Jinshi from Songlin Academy. Lu Qi is responsible for helping to keep accounts at the door, recording the shares and gifts brought by the visitors!
As for Zhong Hao's partner Pan Xu, he used his business acumen for overall planning to sit in the house and coordinate and direct all kinds of matters needed to get married, and he solved any problems. The maids and servants in this house used to belong to his family, and he commanded it very easily!
As for the female guest, there was naturally Ke Yao who greeted Xiao Tao and Xiao Xing.
Zhong Hao originally had a headache about this wedding, but he didn't expect that today, with the help of a group of brothers and friends, it was arranged in an orderly manner and carried out in a very orderly manner.
Zhong Hao originally thought that he had been in Tokyo for a short time, and he knew so many people in Tokyo City, and he didn't have many friends, so he thought that there were not many visitors. Unexpectedly, guests have been coming one after another since early in the morning, and by the time Zhong Hao went to greet his relatives, there were already dozens of tables.
Seeing this situation, Zhong Hao couldn't help but stare a little, he didn't expect that so many people would come, so he prepared more than a dozen tables of banquets. In this era, large families used eight immortal tables for their seats, and one table could make eight people, and these dozen tables were enough for more than 100 people. Zhong Hao felt that it was enough, and any more preparation would definitely be wasted. Zhong Hao has always felt that wasting is a very shameful thing, so naturally he will not waste more.
Seeing this situation, Pan Xu immediately urgently asked people to go to Juxianglou not far away to carry the table, move pots and pans, and call all the chefs there by the way. Let Juxianglou be closed today, and all the people will come to Zhong Hao to help.
This Juxianglou is the property of the Pan family, and Pan Xu is really concerned about Zhong Hao's affairs. You must know that the closure of this Juxiang Building for one day is not only a matter of losing a day's income, but also has a great impact on word-of-mouth and those long-term guests.
However, Pan Xu is this kind of gentleman, and making friends is a matter of righteousness, and these things are not taken into account at all. Besides, they will have to cooperate with Zhong Hao to make money in the future, and they will earn together in the future, which is naturally much more than this small loss.
Zhong Hao couldn't help but be glad, fortunately Pan Xu was here today, otherwise he would really be blind.
Zhong Hao saw that most of these visitors were unknown, and it was estimated that most of them came for the face of his Taishan father-in-law.
His own Taishan father-in-law is also a person who has been in power, although after the Qingli New Deal, most of the officials of the "Junzi Party" have been derogatory. However, after all these years, many officials of the "Junzi Party" have already returned to Beijing, and now that they have heard that their old comrades-in-arms have married their daughters, they naturally want to come to congratulate them. Of course, most of these "gentlemen's party" officials naturally could not come in person, and they usually sent their sons and nephews to come.
Zhong Hao didn't even know a few of these "gentlemen's party" officials, and naturally he didn't know a few of their sons and nephews. Yes, Zhong Hao looked at the crowds in this courtyard, but he didn't know most of them.
Of course, there are also some people Zhong Hao knows, and some of his people who have not left Beijing now and some of them who have been in Tokyo in the same year also come to drink happy wine. Four of them also came, and even Zheng Zheng, the champion of today's department, also came! These same years, it really gave Zhong Hao a lot of face!
