In the fourth year of the Han Dynasty, just after the Lantern Festival, Wollongong became lively.

Five ox carts were parked outside the cottage, and it was the second brother-in-law Pang Min who delivered something.

It was only half a month before the wedding, and most of the preparations for the wedding had been in place, even the beef cattle purchased by the caravan were slaughtered, marinated and put in the warehouse for refrigeration, waiting for the wedding day to be cooked.

The thatched cottage is also newly decorated, with red lanterns hanging on the eaves, red letters of happiness on the lintels, and even a strand of red silk tied to the nearby trees to show joy.

However, the utensils for the banquet were not well prepared by the Zhuge family.

The second brother-in-law, Pang Min, sent these utensils over today.

Twenty seats, plus pots and pans, etc., only a big family like the Pang family prepares so much all year round.

"Be careful, and carry it directly into the living room to set it up!"

Pang Min gave a word of advice to the steward beside him, and walked towards Zhuge Kongming, who came out.

"Second brother-in-law, I'm tired!" Zhuge Liang thanked him.

Pang Min looked at Zhuge Liang for a few moments, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, who called me your second brother-in-law?" ”

"Don't you know, as your wedding is approaching, your second sister was originally going to come over to help Zhang Luo, but now, your second sister is about to give birth, don't dare to let her make a mistake. No, your Kong Ming's wedding, will my second brother-in-law help Zhang Luo! ”

The second sister's due date is in mid-February, and the eldest sister's due date is in early March, which is very close to Zhuge Liang's wedding date.

In this era, the transportation is not convenient, and the pregnant woman giving birth is a life of death, especially when she is about to give birth, she can't stand the slightest bump; Therefore, Zhuge Liang's wedding, these two sisters could not be present.

However, Zhuge Liang's wedding, someone has to be Zhang Luo, right?

It is impossible for Zhuge Liang, the groom and official, to personally show up on the wedding day, right?

So, Pang Min, the second brother-in-law who was closest to Longzhong, came to Longzhong in advance to help Zhang Luo.

Of course, Pang Min came to Longzhong so early, and he didn't mean to drink.

Zhuge wine, Zhuge brewed by Zhuge Liang, has a price, and if you want to buy it, you have to see whether Zhuge Liang sells it or not.

Years ago, the two jars of wine that Zhuge Liang gave to the Pang family were not enough for a few wine worms.

No, just after sending the utensils, Pang Min pulled Zhuge Liang, and while walking to the study, he said in a stacked voice: "Hurry up and bring some wine, this time is to kill me!" ”

……

Uncle Niu was helping to set up the table in the living room, and Aunt Niu was cooking at this time.

The second aunt wants to live in Longzhong for a period of time to help Zhang Luo's second son's wedding, and Aunt Niu naturally has to be warmly entertained. What's more, the servants of the Pang family who came to help carry things also had to let them have a lunch, didn't they?

Lu Qiling was greedy and followed the kitchen, in fact, just to steal a little snack.

After Zhuge birthday, he went back to the grass house in the back mountain.

He kept filial piety by his father's grave for three years. The weather was cold a year ago, and the New Year was approaching, and under the supervision of Zhuge Liang, Zhuge returned to Wollongong for the New Year. As soon as the Lantern Festival passed, this kid went back to the back mountain.

Approximately, on the day of Zhuge Liang's wedding, Zhuge Dan will come back again, right?

As for the third brother Zhuge Jun, he is always nowhere to be seen during the day, sometimes going to play in the village below the mountain, or teaching the children in the village to read; Sometimes it's in the back mountain, reading with Zhuge Dan.

At this time, he was a little busy, but Zhuge Liang couldn't find someone to pour wine for his second brother-in-law for a while.

"Brother-in-law wait for a while, and the younger brother will go and get the wine."

Zhuge Liang said a word, and went straight to the kitchen.

Most of the Zhuge wine is stored in the warehouse, but there is also half a jar of wine in the kitchen, which everyone drinks slowly on weekdays.

After a while, Zhuge Liang came in with a plate of braised beef and a pot of wine.

It's still early before lunch, but since Pang Min is addicted to alcohol, this pot of wine can probably kill him.

As for that plate of braised beef, it's just a wine accompaniment.

Almost snatching the wine jug in Zhuge Liang's hand, Pang Min took a sip, closed his eyes and brewed a little, and then spit out a mouthful of wine.

In just such an instant, Pang Min's face turned red.

"Good wine!"

With a sigh of admiration, Pang Min raised his chopsticks to pick up a piece of braised beef and swallowed it in his mouth to suppress the wine.

Zhuge wine, in this era, is equivalent to the enhanced version of whiskey in later generations, not everyone can drink it so much.

When the second brother-in-law was addicted to alcohol and began to slowly take a sip of wine, Zhuge Liang asked, "Is the second sister okay during this time?" The braised beef sent, does the second sister still like to eat it? ”

Pregnant women in later generations are very squeamish, let alone this era of low productivity?

When he was idle a few years ago, Zhuge Liang made all kinds of delicacies, and he inevitably gave one to his two sisters. No, after the year was completed, after the beef cattle were slaughtered, Zhuge Liang sent ten catties of braised beef by himself.

Pregnant women's appetites are already very strong, these braised beef, I think the second sister likes it very much, right?

As soon as Zhuge Liang asked, Pang Min's face was full of bitterness.

"Don't mention any braised beef."

"The ten catties of braised beef you sent, your second brother-in-law and I just taste the fishy smell, and even my mother doesn't want to touch the rest."

"No, in order to eat a bite of braised beef, I am a man, and I am called by your second sister to drink it."

Speaking of braised beef, Pang Min was full of tears.

Pregnant women are the greatest in any family, and that period is the largest.

Not to mention the husband, even a powerful mother-in-law, at this time, she has to step aside and let the pregnant woman and daughter-in-law score three points.

Therefore, the current status and treatment of the second sister in the Pang family, Zhuge Liang also knows it when he thinks about it.

……

In the afternoon, the living hall of the Zhuge family was finally properly arranged, and the guests were seated on the wedding day.

After lunch, the servants of the Pang family followed the ox cart back to Lumen Mountain, but Pang Min stayed.

Although everything is ready, just waiting for Kong Ming's wedding, there are still many details in it, Zhuge Liang, who has never been married, does not know, so he has to help his second brother-in-law Pang Min.

For example, how many servants are needed on the wedding day, those villagers under Wollongong also have to distribute some festive gifts in advance, and the tenants of the Zhuge family also have to reward some gifts, which Zhuge Liang does not understand.

When the second brother-in-law Pang Min helped Zhang Luo, Zhuge Liang suddenly realized when he looked at it.

Especially for their own tenants, they need to be rewarded during the New Year's holidays.

At the end of the first month, everything is really ready, only the wedding is missing.

Three generations of people, married twice, Zhuge Liang does not seem impatient. At this time, Zhuge Liang was still in the mood to play the piano and chess.

On this day, Zhuge Liang and Pang Min were playing chess in Daqingshi, only to listen to the mountain road in Wollongong, and suddenly there were a few wild laughter: "Hahaha, is Kong Ming at home?" I'm here again, hahaha! ”

The familiar duck-like voice, the familiar arrogant laughter, Zhuge Liang stroked the feather fan and smiled, but Pang Min shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Pang Min felt that his cousin Pang Tong suddenly appeared in Wolong at this time, and it must be no good thing!
