Chapter 51: Matchmaker Pang Degong
When the ancients got married, they paid attention to three media and six hires.
The last two procedures of the three media and six hires are to invite the date and welcome the family.
The invitation period is that the man asks a matchmaker to go to the woman's home to discuss the date of the marriage. After the discussion, the man's family can also plan the wedding; On the day of the wedding, the groom went to the woman's house to greet the bride with great fanfare.
Of course, if the two families of men and women are too far apart, they will have to meet their relatives a few days in advance.
After all, after the invitation period, the auspicious day of the wedding cannot be delayed unless it is a major change.
The original owner Zhuge Liang's family affairs, although it was an instant match between him and his father-in-law, he also went through three media and six appointments, and now there are only two steps left: the invitation period and the kiss.
In the autumn of last year, before his uncle Zhuge Xuan fell ill, he not only crowned Zhuge Liang in advance, but also urged the two brothers to get married quickly.
At that time, the eldest brother's matchmaker had already asked for the eldest brother, and only the step of welcoming the eldest brother Zhuge Jin was needed, and the eldest brother Zhuge Jin could get married. And Zhuge Liang's matchmaker was also preparing to go to Huang Chengyan's house for him to ask for an appointment, but before he could move, his uncle Zhuge Xuan died of illness. In this way, the marriage of the eldest brother Zhuge Jin was delayed; His Zhuge Liang's family affairs are naturally not easy to ask for.
Now, the one-year filial piety period has expired, and the eldest brother has gone to Jiangdong to get married. If so, his Zhuge Liang's marriage should be put on the agenda.
Starting a family and starting a business is something that men always have to go through.
What's more, for Sister Huang, although the original owner doesn't like it much, he has decades of affection in his previous life, and Zhuge Liang in this life still thinks that Sister Huang is the best even if he has seen many beauties.
The talent of his fiancée Huang Yueying is actually no less than that of their Wolong and Phoenix Chicks.
Even, in some respects, the original owner and Pang Tong together are not as good as Sister Huang's.
I know astronomy, I know geography, I know five hundred years before, and five hundred years after that, what else is there to learn to be rich and rich, and only eight years old, this is not his Zhuge Liang and the boast of the patent, fiancée Huang Yueying, that girl is actually more proficient than them in this regard. Moreover, the way of formation, the way of organs, Sister Huang is also very proficient.
Before the original owner was crossed, Master Sima Hui gave him a copy of "Qimen Dunjia", which he studied with his fiancée many times. This is not a master's exercise, it is just the way of the formation, and it is not a foreign transmission.
Moreover, Sister Huang also has a hand in governing the family.
The old man is a game of red dust, and to put it mildly, he is idle. But the Huang family's family business in Chuyang has always been properly handled; This is not the credit of the father-in-law, it is all handled by the fiancée.
Under the knees of the old man, except for Sister Huang, there are no other children!
The fiancée can run the house, which is officially what he Zhuge Liang needs.
Of course, the most important thing is that in the previous life of the original owner, he had a close relationship with Sister Huang, and this affection was enough to make Zhuge Liang in this life want to marry him as soon as possible.
……
Lumen Mountain, located in the southeast of Xiangyang City, more than 30 miles, passes through Xiangyang, and is nearly 70 miles away from Wollongong, Longzhong.
Lumen Academy is located at the foot of Lumen Mountain.
This is the worldly property and other courtyards of the master, which is used to teach the students knowledge, and at the same time to discover the seedlings of the monks and send them to the master. And Pang Tong's uncle, Pang Degong, is the head of Lumen Academy, and he is also the elder of the outer sect of the master.
The Pang family's fields are all on the left side of Da Xian Mountain, a little far away from here.
As a result, next to this Lumen Academy, there is also a Pang family courtyard, where most of the Pang family's descendants live.
After all, isn't it good to study nearby?
At dusk, the ox cart of the Zhuge family arrived at the Pang family's courtyard.
"Hahaha, I'm back again!"
Pang Tong jumped off the little donkey and rushed into the house with a burst of chickens and dogs. In a moment, more than a dozen students who had benefited from the Pang family said goodbye in embarrassment, and when they passed Zhuge Liang's ox cart, they just gave up their hands and left in embarrassment.
Pang Tong has a poisonous mouth, and most of the students in Lumen Academy have been poisoned by him.
So, when the students who came to visit Pang Degong and Pang Min, when they saw Pang Tong, did they not flee quickly?
It is only when he meets Zhuge Kongming that Pang Tong's poisonous mouth can be regarded as the tip of a needle meeting Mai Mang.
Zhuge Liang jumped out of the ox cart, and before he had time to follow up in the house, the second sister ran out with a big belly and a gust of wind.
"Second brother is here!"
The second sister, Zhuge Mengxue, took Zhuge Liang's hand and looked up and down.
"A while ago, I heard that my second brother was seriously ill, and I was so scared that I couldn't sleep well for several nights. If it weren't for the eldest brother who said later that the second brother's illness was cured, I would have gone to see the second sister. Zhuge Mengxue had a smile on the corner of her mouth, but tears were on her eyes.
The five brothers and sisters have all lost their parents since they were children, and their feelings for each other are naturally close.
It is said that around the Mid-Autumn Festival, Zhuge Liang was seriously ill, and the eldest sister and second sister who knew the news would visit in person. It's just that now the two sisters are pregnant with Liujia, and three months ago it was the time when they needed to raise their babies with peace of mind, how could they withstand the bumps of a hundred and ten miles?
Therefore, at that time, the two sisters could not go to Longzhong to visit Zhuge Liang.
It's just that later, Zhuge Liang's illness improved quickly, and he received a visit from the eldest brother-in-law and the second brother-in-law's family.
After crossing + being reborn, this was the first time Zhuge Liang saw his second sister. Compared with the memory of the original owner, the second sister Zhuge Mengxue looked a lot bloated at this time, perhaps because she was pregnant with Liujia, and the big belly was especially obvious.
"Second Sister Lao is worried." Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "Originally, it was just a minor illness, but with Zhongjing's divine doctor, he was cured in the blink of an eye." Look, isn't your second brother still alive now? ”
As he spoke, Zhuge Liang turned around in front of the second sister and said that he was completely fine.
At this time, the second brother-in-law Pang Min also chased out, and said with a wry smile: "Madame, slow down, beware of the child in the belly!" ”
"I said yesterday that Kong Ming will come in two days at the latest, but Madame is always so anxious."
Pang Min was at home just now, together with his father, meeting with the dozen or so students and discussing knowledge. When Pang Tong returned home, there was immediately a burst of chickens and dogs jumping at home, and those students were instantly defeated under Pang Tong's poisonous mouth, and they left one after another. Then, Pang Min saw his wife, who went straight to the courtyard gate with a big belly, and Pang Min couldn't sit still anymore and chased him out.
"Kong Ming has seen the second brother-in-law."
Looking at Pang Min who ran out, Zhuge Liang bowed his hand.
The second brother-in-law and the second sister are still very affectionate, which can be seen from the tension of the second brother-in-law at this time.
Pang Min returned the salute and said with a wry smile: "Kong Ming is finally here." ”
"I told your second sister yesterday that Kong Ming will definitely come two days at the latest, but your second sister is always in a hurry to see you."
was held by the second sister and followed towards the house, Zhuge Liang said: "The younger brother is here today, one is to visit the second sister and the second brother-in-law, and the other is the younger brother's relatives, and I have to bother Uncle Lao to go." ”
Pang Min said with a smile: "This is easy to say, my father is in the house, and it is expected that Kong Ming will come in the next few days." ”
The group laughed and entered the Pang family's courtyard.
Later, Uncle Niu drove the ox cart, and under the leadership of the Pang family's steward, he settled in the front and back courtyards, only Lu Qiling followed Zhuge Liang closely, which attracted the second sister to look at it very curiously, but she didn't say anything.
As for Pang Tong, he didn't know where to run at this time.
……
Throughout the thousands of years of marriage system in China, there is an important role that is indispensable, that is, matchmakers.
The so-called, the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker.
It's all indispensable.
The original owner's family affairs, although he and his father-in-law hit it off, but they also had to go through a matchmaker to complete the three media and six appointments.
Zhuge Liang's matchmaker is his uncle Pang Degong.
Actually, logically speaking, Zhuge Liang's matchmaker should be his master Sima Hui.
Zhuge Liang lost his parents since he was a child, and his uncle Zhuge Xuan is a relative, in this era, relatives are not suitable for matchmakers.
But Master Sima Hui is the best matchmaker.
After all, it is natural for a master to seek marriage for his disciples.
Moreover, Zhuge Liang's fiancée is the daughter of his uncle Huang Chengyan, and she can barely be regarded as a sister.
If Sister Huang can also cultivate, maybe they are still in the same sect.
It's just that I don't know why, Master Sima Hui's whereabouts were also uncertain during that time. In the end, it was the father-in-law who came forward in person, coupled with the request of the second sister, and asked his uncle Pang Degong to act as the matchmaker for both parties.
Previously, the various etiquettes of the three media and six hires were basically completed, and only the invitation period was missing.
That is, Pang Degong came forward and took him Zhuge Liang to discuss the wedding date with his father-in-law.
Then, Zhuge Liang can go home to prepare for the wedding; Just wait for the agreed wedding date to arrive, whether it is a sedan chair or a two-horse carriage, and go to the old man's house to greet his relatives happily. At that time, if there is no accident, the life events of his Zhuge Liang and Sister Huang will be completed.
……
Pang's courtyard, the door of the living room.
With long hair fluttering, looking at Pang Degong, who was in his forties or fifties, stood at the door, and said with a smile: "Kong Ming is here, come in!" ”
As he spoke, Pang Degong turned sideways, his right hand was falsely introduced, and he motioned for Zhuge Liang to enter the living room to speak.
Pang Degong is an elder, even if he wants to see Zhuge Kongming, when he arrives at the door of the living room, he is already lifting Zhuge Liang. If you welcome Zhuge Liang again, it will not be to love Zhuge Liang, but to kill.
"Disciple Zhuge Liang, meet Uncle Pang!"
After entering the living room, Zhuge Liang respectfully saluted the head of Pang Degong.
Pang Degong, what his original name was, Zhuge Liang did not know. I only know that he is the same as his father-in-law, he is a second-generation disciple of the master, and now he is not a man of sixty or seventy years old. It's just because of his small achievements in cultivation that he looks like he's only forty or fifty years old.
Similarly, Pang Degong's cultivation reached the eighth or ninth level of the foundation building realm, and he never made any further progress.
Yin God Realm, this life is hopeless.
So, similar to Huang Chengyan, Pang Degong also went down the mountain to get married, continued his bloodline, and took charge of Lumen Academy for his master by the way.
In the living room, everyone sat down, Zhuge Liang was about to explain his intentions, only to hear Pang Degong say: "Kong Ming's intentions, I already know, and I don't need to say much." Kong Ming only needs to stay in the mansion for two days, and you two sisters and brothers can get together. Two days later, let's go to Chuyang together and ask for your Zhuge Kongming. At this time, Senior Brother Huang was afraid that he had been waiting in Chuyang for a long time. ”
