Chapter 117: Candle Night in the Cave Room
August 15 of the first year of Xuanhe, the Mid-Autumn Festival, is also an auspicious day of the zodiac.
Although it is still early for the New Year, there is a busy scene of lights in the Zhao Mansion, and its liveliness is no less than that of the New Year.
Today is an important day for the Zhao Mansion, and it is also an important day for the entire Jiangning City, Zhao Hao, the only son of the Zhao Mansion and the prince of the Great Song Dynasty, wants to win the little lady of the Wang family as his wife today!
The marriage of the four major mansions in Jiangning, one of them is still the son of the clan, and the head of the family is a group training envoy from the five grades, and its liveliness and luxury are naturally extraordinary.
The square at the entrance of Zhao's Mansion is full of sheds, more than 1,000 tables of banquets, dotted around, and at a glance, it looks like a camp of 100,000 troops, lively and busy.
As usual, there are three seats, the upper and lower seats, the lower seats are all in the square, the middle seats are placed in the open space in the palace, and the upper seats are in the hall of the palace. The officials of Jiangning Prefecture headed by Wang Hanzhi, the prefect of Jiangning, the officials of Jiangnan Road, the county magistrates of Jiangnan East and West Roads and Liangzhejiang Road, etc., filled most of the halls with officials above the seventh grade.
In addition, wealthy merchants, scholars, and gentry from all walks of life, states, and counties also came one after another and sat down in turn.
and Huang Jin, the young master of the Huaixi Grain Gang in Jiangbei, also brought heavy gifts to congratulate, which made people who didn't know it secretly surprised.
Jiang Ning Zhixian, who was wearing a new robe, saw that the seat was full and the auspicious time had arrived, so he opened his throat and said in a loud voice: "Open the table!" ”
As if an order was given, the guys who helped the kitchen in the house took a plate of dinner and sent a plate of cold spell to the banquet, although it is now autumn, but Jiangning is still in the summer, and you can suppress the heat first by eating some cold spell.
Then, the steaming dishes were served like running water.
This feast, organized by nearly ten restaurants under the Zhao Mansion in Jiangning City, led by Chunfeng Lou and Hefeng Lou, is excellent in terms of the quality of the dishes and the craftsmanship of the production...... There are stir-fried vegetables to stir-fry, and there are stewed dishes to stew, and there are many names, and so on.
Zhao Fu is rich and rich, even if it is a low-class seat, there are shark fins, sea cucumbers, and abalone, and they are enough. The fine wine on the table is even more demanding, drinking the dead does not pay for their lives, and the specifications of the inferior seats are all ten-year-old Du Kang, and the supply is sufficient.
Zhao Mansion, which has a family fortune of more than 10 million, don't say a meal with such specifications, even if it is ten meals and a hundred meals, it is not exhaustive, just such a baby son, the wedding that Ming Media is marrying, naturally requires the guests to open their bellies, eat and drink enough, lest someone gossip behind their backs, after all, it is unpleasant.
For a time, inside and outside the Zhao Mansion, there were staggered plans, laughter and laughter, and more than a dozen troupes were on the side to help the fun, which was extremely lively and luxurious.
The groom's official Zhao Hao, with a big red flower on his head, followed by Zhao Shixuan, who was dressed in a five-grade dress, started from the main table, toasted from table to table, greeted each other with a smile, said politely non-stop, and was very busy.
Seeing that when each table was almost respected, it was already sunset, Zhao Hao hurriedly swallowed a large pill to replenish his strength, and then went to greet the bride in high spirits.
Wearing a red dress, with a welcoming team, blowing and beating, the city was noisy, and they rushed to the Wang's house.
At the gate of the Wang family, the lights are still colorful, and the excitement is abnormal, but with the sound of firecrackers in front of it, someone shouted "sedan chair welcome the door", and the originally half-open door was actually covered up - blocking the sedan door.
If you don't give enough money according to the gift, the sedan door will not be opened, but the Zhao family has never been short of money...... The Wang family is not short of money, this is etiquette.
The copper coins were just piled up and moved into the door, and finally Wang Jue's voice came from the door: "Enough, enough, this broken money blocked the door...... If you move in again, don't even think about opening the door!"
The door finally reopened, and the eight-lift sedan chair finally hit the ground.
A group of three aunts and six wives walked out surrounded by Wang Xin, who was wearing a phoenix crown.
The wedding dress is like fire, and the red makeup is like a glow.
The procedures for getting on the sedan chair are still cumbersome and complicated, seeing that the ceremony is over, and he is about to enter the sedan chair, Zhao Hao, who was originally hanging aside, moved forward, approached Wang Xin, and stretched out his hand to Wang Xin.
The eyes are opposite, the smile greets each other, a pair of eyes is a lifetime, and the white head is inseparable.
Finally, Wang Xin stretched out her hand and shook it together, and at that moment, they all smiled heartily, and each other's palms were hot and slightly wet!
The moment the fingertips touched, everyone around them was originally stunned, but under the leadership of Wang Jue, they cheered: "God-given good fate, grow old together!" “
The festive and auspicious music sounded at the moment when the cheers fell, so light and harmonious, it was a song "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix"!
After the tea leaves and rice grains were sprinkled on the top of the sedan chair to drive away evil spirits, the sedan chair rose, the firecrackers sounded, and slowly went to the Zhao Mansion.
When the big sedan chair passed on the street, the people gathered on the side of the street, and Zhao Hao rode a big horse on the street slowly, his face was a little proud...... From now on, we are also people with wives.
But he didn't notice the white shadow in the crowd on the side of the street, and the sadness in his eyes.
The sedan chair entered the gate of Zhao's house, just when the sun was setting in the west and the sky was full of red clouds, which was in response to the marriage saying that "men welcome women at dusk, and women come because of men".
The Zhao family opened the middle door, played music, and set off cannons to welcome the sedan chair.
The red silk and red hydrangea are connected, the man is on the left and the woman is on the right, along the long red felt on the ground, enter the gate, and go straight to the main hall.
"The bride and groom are in place."
The two newlyweds were already standing at the offering table.
"Worship heaven and earth!"
The two of them knelt down in front of the ancestors' tablets, kowtowed, kowtowed, and bowed three times, worshipping the ancestors of heaven and earth.
"Second worship high hall!"
A couple of newcomers kowtowed three times to Zhao Shixuan and Xie Yun, who were sitting on the top and couldn't close their mouths, Zhao Shixuan was okay, Xie Yun's face was smiling like a flower, with tears in his smile.
Once upon a time, this precious son was unconscious on the hospital bed, and even the best Langzhong in the city shook his head and sighed, for her, it was like the sky was falling, and she thought that her son would never wake up again.
Unexpectedly, this baby son not only woke up, but also became more and more angry day by day, and now he married the daughter of the palace, the first beauty in Jiangning, so how could she not be happy and not cry.
"Husband and wife worship each other!"
Zhao Hao and Wang Xin kowtowed to each other three times!
Under the red hijab, Wang Xin was already in tears.
After worshipping the church, she is the woman of the Zhao family, and since then she has been destined for three lives and will never give up!
"After the ceremony, send it to the cave room!"
The music sounded, the red carpet was paved, and it was sent to the cave room, forever united.
After sending Wang Xin into the cave room, Zhao Hao only sat for a while, and then was kicked out by a group of mothers-in-law, and he had to toast his relatives and friends outside...... By noon, the guests had largely dispersed, and only those who were particularly close to them would stay and attend the table.
So those who stay in the house now are considered very close people...... Wang Hanzhi, the prefect of Jiangning, sentenced Li Yu, grandfather Xie Yu, uncle Xie Wen and cousin Xie Yu's family.
No one wanted to disturb Zhao Hao's cave room for a candle night, so he toasted him a glass and let him go to the cave room......
……
Tenderness is like water, and the best period is like a dream.
The Spring Festival is worth a thousand gold.
In the golden cave room, the floor was covered with a soft red silk carpet, the walls were pasted with big red characters, and even the veils hanging on the ground were replaced with festive red.
Six arm-thick dragon and phoenix red candles burst with lanterns, and the red lanterns hanging from the roof beams reflected the red light, making the cave room warm and red.
Sandalwood was swirling in the pure gold incense burner at the head of the bed, and the candlelight and incense mist made the room hazy, and the bride in a bright red wedding dress was even more attractive.
Lift the red hijab.
The powder face contains spring, as bright as peach blossoms, it is suitable for joy and hatred, and the autumn waves are full.
Maybe it's the festive grandeur set off by the phoenix crown, or maybe it's the temptation of the pink lights around, Wang Xin at this moment, like the most gorgeous peony in the hundred gardens, all blooming.
For the person I love the most, it completely bloomed, released all the beauty, so beautiful that people trembled, and so charming that people couldn't control it.
Zhao Hao could no longer maintain the image of a bullshit "humble gentleman, gentle as jade", opened his hands and hugged Wang Xin fiercely in his hands like a hungry tiger pounced on food, and the warm fragrance of nephrite made him completely sink and be intoxicated.
"I haven't drunk the acacia yet." Wang Xin's face was red and dripping, and she writhed and struggled in his arms.
Okay, let's hold on for a while and spare you a few minutes......
Zhao Hao's heart was hot, his eyes were quick, he picked up the thirty-year-old Chen's daughter Hong on the table, filled two wine glasses with wine, and handed one of them to Wang Xin.
Wang Xin had just taken the Hehuan wine, and Zhao Hao had already sat her soft body on her lap, and the two of them exchanged glasses.
Hehuan wine into the stomach, Wang Xin's pretty face became more and more delicate, and said with a smile: "I met Lang Jun in peony words, knew each other, and went on a blind date in extremely beautiful and excellent sentences. ”
Zhao Hao couldn't wait any longer, where was he impatient to write poems, he pounced on him with a whin, forcibly untied his clothes, and laughed: "Female donor, the old man brought you tea......
"Let's put out the candles first......"
"I can't wait!"
……
The spring night is bitter and short, and the 100,000 words are omitted here......
