Chapter 207: Before the Big Wedding
Chang'an City is very lively because of Master Xuanzang's Buddhism, and Zhuangzi in Dongshan County is also very lively, which is even more lively than the opening of the market in Zhuangzi.
The reason is that the main family is getting married.
Xuan Shijing is the age of a weak crown after this year, but it is just a little more than a time, if it is a child of an ordinary family, his son will go to the ground at this age.
Now when it comes to Xuan Shijing's marriage in Zhuangzi, it is said that the main family is infatuated, saying that it was love at first sight with Princess Jinyang in the palace back then, and since then he has to wait for the princess and Lu.
However, there is more than that, the joke between Xuan Shijing and Princess Jinyang is not only that, the imagination of the masses is rich, in the Tang Dynasty, Xuan Shijing is still single at the age of nineteen, and he is already an older young man, because he has a relationship with Princess Jinyang, so the people give full play to their imagination and compile one after another love stories for the two of them.
And after Xuan Shijing gave the dowry, the brains of the people were even more boundless. Zhuangzi is a jubilant scene, not only the mansion of the Hou Mansion is red inside and out, even the door of the people on the Zhuangzi house, are decorated with red silk, look at the joy, together with the Zhuangzi on the Fang Market also followed up to make up the lively, originally the branch of the Xuanwu Building here first posted a notice, three days before and after the wedding of the Marquis of Dongshan, the restaurant is free of fifty percent before dinner, and the accommodation is free of thirty percent.
Immediately afterwards, there were other stores following the trend, ranging from one to fifty percent of the meeting, and Xuan Shijing's wedding date has not yet arrived! There are a lot more people in the Zhuangzi, and I don't see that the merchants are full of enthusiasm, and there are so many people at this time, and when it comes to the big wedding of the main family, it will be repaid.
Nowadays, the merchants on the Zhuangzi have begun to actively prepare for work, and when they don't wait for the wedding day of the main family, they will miss the opportunity to make a fortune.
The popularity of Zhuangzi here is very strong, after all, Chang'an City has a curfew at night, those rich sons and young masters, dignitaries and dignitaries want to live a different nightlife, directly in the evening before it gets dark and take a carriage out of the city and come to Dongshan County.
The commercial area of Dongshan County is a city that never sleeps, and the merchants will not close until three watches in the morning, as for those Goulan gambling houses, they are open all night, and the guests are sleepy, so they naturally want to choose a place to live here, so the business of the restaurant inn is also good.
The businessmen who do business are all shrewd, and the people who can spend in Dongshan County are all rich people, so the inn is not like an ordinary inn, and it is the first time that Datang has a high-end room.
I guess this means the presidential suite of later generations......
Businessmen are always at the forefront of the times, and if they don't have a forward-looking vision, they won't be able to make a fortune.
The merchants and the farmers on the Zhuangzi have worked hard to add luster to the Zhuangzi, and the Hou Mansion as the main family can not be worse than anywhere, now it has entered the winter, and the scenery on the entire Zhuangzi can be depressed, but this is also difficult to help the people of the Hou Mansion, directly with various colors of cloth and satin, the road from the archway to the Hou Mansion in Dongshan County is made thousands of purples and thousands of reds, fortunately, the weather in these days is good, and the Taishi Bureau still has this little ability.
In the Hou Mansion, you can see bright red lanterns everywhere, and the big red satin under the eaves of the cloister.
As a housekeeper, Zhong Zishuo's busy feet do not touch the ground, even the Wang family personally came out to supervise the work of the people.
"The courtyard in front, clean up well, try to empty it as much as possible, and remove all those flower pots and everything, and there will be no shortage of guests when the time comes."
"And over there, it's all cleaned up, cleaned up, and the stone slabs on the ground are uneven and quickly replaced."
"Where's the backyard? Have you packed up your ropes? When the time comes, don't neglect the nobles. ”
"Uncle Zhong, the Duke of Lu sent four hundred catties of beef, saying that the cow on their Zhuangzi accidentally broke its leg, and it happened that there was a happy event in our Zhuangzi, so we asked someone to pull it over, and it was all dealt with." The servant outside hurriedly ran into the courtyard and came to Zhong Zishuo and said.
"Good thing, by the way, didn't you open the ice cellar these two days? Put the beef in the ice cellar first, so that it can survive. Zhong Zishuo said.
"Yes."
As soon as the words fell, another small man ran in: "Uncle Zhong, two carts of fine wine have been sent from the Yiguo Mansion, saying that they are all high-quality wines from the Western Regions. ”
"Put it in the storeroom first."
"Yes."
The good days are approaching, and the various families who are good friends in Chang'an City and the Hou Mansion have also sent a lot of things, whether the Hou Mansion has it or not, these are the intentions of each family, and they can't neglect others.
"Junko!" Zhong Zishuo shouted towards the east courtyard.
"It's coming, it's coming." Junko put down what she was doing, wiped her hands, and ran out.
"How's the craftsman's side? Are you done? When will the things be delivered? Zhong Zishuo asked.
"Uncle, don't worry, now the College of Engineering is busy with our family's affairs, and tomorrow I can bring all the things over." Junko said.
"Well, this matter is very important, your kid personally supervises it, if something goes wrong, Lao Tzu will kill you!" Zhong Zishuo said viciously.
"Uncle, don't worry about me." Junko patted her chest and reassured.
The last time the Hou Mansion held a flowing water banquet, the tables, chairs and benches in the house were not enough, and Zhong Zishuo also recorded in his heart that this time the wedding of his own Hou Ye was not a trivial matter.
The guest rooms in the house must also be cleaned up, the wedding of the big wedding, but to be held at night, the guests are a little inconvenient to return home, need to stay in the house temporarily, although there is an inn in Zhuangzifang City, but the number of people that the inn can accommodate, is also limited.
In addition to these, on the day of the wedding, many people in Chang'an City should be invited to come to Zhuangzi to perform songs and dances, just the girls of Yanlailou's family are not enough, the scene must be sufficient, the pomp and circumstance must be large, and the placement of these people is also a problem that cannot be ignored.
The most important point is to build a green house outside the house.
The people who have no money build it is called Qinglu, and the materials used to build it are curtains, hay, wood, etc., and the rich people build it is also called Qinglu, which uses silk brocade and precious wood.
The venue is also related to the number of guests who come to the wedding banquet, and the front yard of the mansion has a separate wall to connect with the built green house, which is large enough.
