Qu Huashang was looking at the two of them, but he heard a very embarrassing pipa sound behind him, Qu Huashang was curious, so he followed the sound of the pipa and found it.

Not long after, I saw a person playing the pipa in the courtyard.

However, this person does not appear to be an adult, but a child. He was very clumsy in holding the pipa, and he was extremely unskilled in plucking the strings of the pipa, and the sound of the pipa in his hand was also extremely difficult to hear, but Qu Huashang didn't mind this sound, but stood silently not far from the boy, listening quietly, without making any comments.

"He was a child that Twilight and I had adopted, and that day the family encountered robbers on the road, and his father and mother were all killed, and he himself lost his memory due to fright. So Twilight and I adopted him and named him Wang Xun'an. Wang Xunyi unconsciously appeared behind Qu Huasheng and explained.

"Wang Xun'an......" Qu Huashang thought about this name, and after a while, she understood the meaning of this name, Wang Xun'an...... Wang Xun'an's ...... is Wang Xunyi's search for An Duyu. Qu Huashang said his understanding, Nan Ke Lin also nodded in agreement, Wang Xunyi didn't affirm but just replied: "Not only that, looking for peace and security, I hope he can find peace in this troubled world!" Wang Xunyi's eyes were firmly fixed on the boy's back, his eyes full of hope.

The boy also seemed to notice the three people behind him, so he hurriedly played in the hall, came to Wang Xunyi with the pipa, and saluted the three of them.

"Xun'an, what are you doing with your mother's lute?" Wang Xunyi couldn't help asking.

Wang Xun'an did not shy away from giving his answer at all: "Father, you told me that the first time you and your mother crossed paths was because your mother played a song "Man Jianghong" that day, and my mother has mentioned this to me many times, and she also said that "Man Jianghong" has been her favorite song since then. Now that my mother is gone, only the guqin by your side is left behind my father, and the pipa in my hand, so I am learning how to play "Man Jianghong" and then play it to my mother! As he spoke, Wang Xunyi's tears couldn't stop falling, after all, children are fragile and understandable.

Wang Xunyi also squatted down, pulled Wang Xun'an into his arms, hugged him affectionately, gently stroked Wang Xun'an's little head with his generous palm, and said, "Xun'an, your mother is going to marry your father!" ”

"Really! That's great! Wang Xun'an seems to be very happy, as if he was getting married himself, and he is even more concerned than Wang Xunyi.

"Mother used to tell her children every day about her fantasies about the place of her marriage to your father, and it seemed to be true, although it was a little late, but I believe that my mother must be very happy!" After that, he once again plunged into Wang Xunyi's arms, smiling bitterly and laughing with tears. The same is true of Wang Xunyi.

Nan Ke Lin and Qu Huasheng on the side also saw this situation, and they couldn't help but feel touched, and they also hugged each other tightly, and time seemed to stand still at this moment, making people reluctant to let go of the people in front of them.

Unintentionally, Wang Xunyi caught a glimpse of a woman hiding in the corner, and at this moment, Wang Xunyi's eyes were already locked on the woman. It was the subordinate who had seen Wang Xunyi naked in the room before. But at this time, Wang Xunyi did not show too much shyness, but the female subordinate hurriedly put it aside when she found out that she was seen by Wang Xunyi, and Wang Xunyi also shook her head helplessly.

Not long after, Wang Xunyi came to Qian Changhai's mansion and informed him that he was going to marry Duyu Shen, although Qian Changhai was also a little hesitant, and even repeatedly confirmed whether Wang Xunyi had completely made up his mind to marry in the dark, and the answer he got was naturally yes. So Qian Changhai didn't say anything more, only blessings.

On the other hand, Wang Xunyi also went to the mansion of Dianba, Wei Yan and others one after another to inform him of his great joy. On the other hand, since Nan Ke Lin agreed to Wang Xunyi, he naturally went non-stop to understand the matters that needed to be prepared for the secret marriage.

Wang Xunyi, who had ended these, naturally began to prepare for some things for the underworld marriage.

What does it mean to have a secret marriage? (This is only for popular science)

There has never been a precedent for the secret marriage ceremony. Although the secret marriage is regarded as a happy event, it is inevitable that the etiquette of red and white things is mixed and intertwined. Much depends on what the parties claim. Therefore, the form of the funeral ceremony varies greatly, but not all funeral ceremonies are handled in this way.

Generally speaking, the underworld marriage should also be introduced through the matchmaker, and the two parties will go through the portal post and get married at the life hall to obtain the dragon and phoenix post.

The release is mostly one-time, so it doesn't matter whether it is big or small. Half of the gifts sent by the man to the woman are real silk rulers, gold and silver treasures; Half of it was a piece of papier-mâché leather, cotton, a clip, and a single garment, and two pairs of brocade boxes, which contained earrings, bracelets, rings, hairpins and other jewelry. On the night of the fixation, it was burned in front of the woman's house or on the grave.

During the communication, the goose cage, the sea of wine, the dragon and phoenix cakes, the elbows, and the fruits sent by the man to the woman were all real, but the clothes and jewelry were papier-mâché utensils.

The dowry given by the woman is generally paperwork, and after it is sent to the man, it is only displayed in front of the groom's portrait or tablet for half a day, and some are only carried around the man's courtyard for a week, that is, led by drum music, and sent to the nearby square for incineration.

The ceremonies listed above are not necessarily held in secret marriages, but the marriage ceremony is indispensable. It is a high day to build a greenhouse, feast relatives and friends, and light the sedan chair in front of the door. The joy room is dedicated to 100% of the gods. A low table is set up on the kang opposite for the groom's portrait or tablet, and several plates of apples and dragon and phoenix cakes are set up in front. And there is a big red flower, decorated with a ribbon on the book: the word groom.

In the woman's boudoir, there is a portrait or tablet for the bride, as before, and there is a big red flower, decorated with a ribbon, and the word "bride" is written.

After the sedan chair arrives at the woman, the bride's portrait or tablet is taken down by the wife, and the wife takes it over and releases the sedan chair. At this time, the bride's father and mother will inevitably cry loudly and chase them out of the house. It's not a happy atmosphere at all.

After the sedan chair returns to the man, the bride's portrait or tablet is still taken out by the wife of the bride and placed on the offering table on the kang of the wedding room, which is placed side by side with the groom. And tie up the two portraits with a red head rope, (take the meaning of the old moon pulling the red line), and reuse the red and yellow colored silk.

Only if the wife of the marriage gives the whole god a hundred incense and kowtows, even if the husband and wife worship heaven and earth. Then the tea room will bring a cup of wine dumplings and longevity noodles to the newlyweds in front of the portrait or tablet.

If the newlyweds have younger siblings or younger siblings, brothers-in-law, etc., they will be summoned out and kowtow to the portrait or tablet. The two in-laws congratulated each other.

After the above ceremonies are held, choose a good day for the zodiac to break the ground and bury, and the woman can raise her spirit. According to the time designated by Mr. Yin and Yang, after the coffin was lifted, he immediately poured a bucket of water in the pit and threw down two apples. At the same time, raise the red paper money high. (The same is true for initiation ceremonies that are not underworld marriages).

The man digs a hole on the side of the grave, exposes the groove of the groom's coffin, buries the bride in this hole, and buries the husband and wife together.

After the burial, that is, in front of the grave, the wine and fruit are displayed, the red paper money is incinerated, and the marriage sacrifice is held. The father, mother and other family members of the man and woman (i.e., the two in-laws) weep and say "great joy".

Since then, men and women have been treated as in-laws.

When all the above ceremonial processes are completed, the marriage is successfully completed. However, in the troubled times here, people believe that most of them believe in ghosts and gods, so there are good and bad marriages.

If you are loyal to one person for the rest of your life, the object of the secret marriage will silently bless you, but if you have two hearts, or change your original intention, you will be cursed and retributed. What happened to the fall to the ground is unknown.

Back on track, only the bride died in this marriage, and Wang Xunyi naturally went into battle as the groom himself. The only trouble at the moment is what to do with this portrait of An Duyu.

An Duyu did not leave any portrait of her before she died, and Wang Xunyi himself, including people he knew, did not have anyone who was extremely good at painting, how should this be?

originally thought that this secret marriage would be much simpler, but I didn't want this kind of problem to occur, but this is good, Wang Xunyi, who was already almost prepared, suddenly fell into a stalemate again, and he was at a loss, and he didn't know what to do.

If there is no portrait, it is too ridiculous to let Wang Xunyi marry the guqin pipa, thinking that Wang Xunyi is rushing to the palace, ready to discuss one thing with Nan Ke Lin......
