Walking on the street with a slight drunkenness, the light snow fluttered all over the sky.

Looking at the appearance of Ruoyi who wanted to speak and stopped, Xiao Zheng said: "If you have something to say, say it quickly, and let it go if you have a fart."

Scratching his head, Gongyi Ruoyi asked, "Brother Xiao, are you too hasty in doing this, my father and my mother don't know about this yet."

"You idiot, I told you just now, your family is still counting on your father?! With his non-speaking temperament, you will have to beat the bachelor sooner or later, you first say how about Ba Wan'er, don't you look at it? ”。

"It's okay, at least I don't hate her," Ruoyi thought about it and replied a little embarrassed.

"Wow! Looks like I've got the fucking right person for you! Don't worry, I'll block the things over there, you can book your family affairs with peace of mind, and I'll bring someone to the door to propose marriage on the first day of the Yuan three days later, and Lao Tzu will do it for you."

After coming back, he told Ruoyi that he was going to get engaged, and his family was also smiling, and Li Tai's three children took his hand and begged for money to buy candy to eat during the New Year.

Gavenda volunteered to be a ceremonial officer and matchmaker, directing the people in the palace to prepare the gifts for the engagement.

Xiao Zheng originally thought that the two families had a family affair, and they were almost ready. As a result, as soon as he said it to Gai Wenda, the old man blew his beard and glared at Xiao Zheng, saying that self-denial is benevolence, and one day self-denial and retribution, the world will return to benevolence. For the sake of benevolence, but by others? Hearing this, Xiao Zheng shook his head, and let the old man's temperament toss.

When Gai Wenda finished hanging the book bag, Xiao Zheng knew that there were still a lot of engagement gifts, and it turned out that the "six rites" of marriage in the Han Dynasty were still prosperous in the Tang Dynasty. These "six rites" have several literary crepe names: Nacai, Ask Name, Naji, Nazheng, Invitation, and Welcome.

"Oh, to put it bluntly, it's a marriage proposal, a big post, a bride price, a day, and a daughter-in-law."

"Vulgar! The old man doesn't understand, your teacher is also a famous and noble person, and you are one of the few in the Tang Dynasty when it comes to poetry, how can you seem to know nothing about etiquette, and you are not as good as a village girl."

"Uh, this...... There is a precedence in hearing the Tao, and there is a specialization in the art industry, that's all," Xiao Zheng touched his nose and said.

"There is a precedence in hearing the Tao, and there is a specialization in the art industry......".

Gai Wenda's eyes lit up, squinted and tasted for a while and praised: "With your words, you will become a member of the house sooner or later."

In fact, what Xiao Zheng wants to do now is to formally propose marriage, to put it bluntly, it is the "Nacai" in the "Six Rites", and it is still early to welcome the marriage! This made Govinda command the people in the mansion to jump, but fortunately, there were a lot of people in the mansion, and the festival was already a period of rest, and some officials also came to help, although they were in a hurry, they were still in time.

While the two were talking, Zheng Xuanli came back with two geese in a bamboo cage, which he brought back with a group of people who tossed around the river overnight.

It turned out that Xiao Zheng said that it was too cold to find a duck to replace this thing, and I used a duck when I got married. As soon as the words came out, Gai Wenda slapped the table and reprimanded him again, you are white, and besides, what do a group of Han peasant women in the sub-village where you stay know.

At this time and that time, now there is a knighthood in the house if you take out one of them, and you can use a goose instead of a lower status, and you dare to use a duck? ! Even the old man is ashamed of you, anyway, Xiao Zheng doesn't understand the etiquette of the Tang Dynasty, when you meet such an old pedant who understands etiquette, let him come, it just happens that there is nothing to learn and let this old man relieve his boredom.

Xiao Zheng is very busy here, and the Ba Mansion is even more lively, since Xiao Zheng left the house, all the people in the Ba family have been in motion. The streets in front and back were cleaned, and Bafu paid for the renovation of the dilapidated façade on the street.

The neighbors asked to know that the eldest granddaughter of Ba Fu wanted to marry, which is a good thing, usually the Ba family is kind to others, and the old lady Ba has not less to help the neighbors, and now the Ba family and daughter will definitely go to congratulate.

Brought the gift into Ba Fu, eight people gathered together to hold a banquet on the spot, some passers-by who couldn't afford the money and didn't know it didn't matter, said a few good words and put together a few people Good wine and good food were immediately placed on the long table on the street, the Ba Fu family did not slack off any people seated, for a time the congratulatory voices around Ba Fu were endless, no matter the day or night the banquet was not withdrawn.

"See, I found you a rich father-in-law, you will definitely not be short of money in your life, everyone in Chengdu is about to go to your father-in-law's house for dinner, and in the future, your son-in-law will dig a gold mine."

"Brother Xiao, you are talking nonsense, who said that you want to point to his house to eat, besides, I didn't worry about eating and drinking before I met his Ba family."

"Your family's little money is not enough for people to stuff their teeth, why don't you go back to Chang'an and wait for you to marry and ask your grandfather to invite people from Chang'an City?"

"You ......" Gong Yi Ruoyi was speechless in the face of Xiao Zheng's ridicule, and snorted for a long time before he said: "You have money, why don't you invite?" ”。

"Because I'm poor, I'm thick-skinned," Xiao Zheng replied triumphantly.

"I ......" Ruoyi pointed at him speechless.

Three days passed quickly.

It was dusk, Xiao Zheng let Li Tai and himself set up the guard of honor, and the entourage was also dressed in new clothes, this was the first time Xiao Zheng and Li Tai moved out of the full set of honor guards in Jiangnan, Zheng Xuanli wore a new dress and carried a ceremonial knife at his waist, behind him were six apricot yellow flags symbolizing the prince, and then the umbrella and fan symbolizing Xiao Zheng's title.

The public in the middle of the team is also well-dressed, this guy originally had a good face, but now he is light and proud, and sitting on the white horse adds a bit of heroism. On the way to Ba Fu, the onlookers on both sides of the street pointed at the public from time to time, and some cheered loudly.

Two or three hundred people, Tiger Zhang Bao Tao, went straight to Bafu, and there were many children behind the team watching the excitement.

There are still two streets away from Bafu, and Xiao Zheng was startled when he walked to him, and the two walls of the street were covered with silk brocade, red and pink looked good

After this thing is rolled up, it is hard currency in the Tang Dynasty and can be used as money! It seems that it must have been paved along the street to the entrance of Bafu.

Just when Xiao Zheng praised the Ba family for being rich, Gai Wenda didn't look surprised, but he just smiled and said: "Shi Chong and Wang Kai Doufu in the past Jin Dynasty made a fifty-mile brocade tent, and the Ba family seems to be restrained."

"Let me see it's a dirt bun behavior, what's the use of you hanging him? and do not eat".

"It's a courtesy! Do you understand? No matter how poor the small family is, the relatives have to hang a few thin silks at the door to show their festivities, it's really difficult for you to become a prince," Gai Wenda looked at Xiao Zheng with disdain and said.

Xiao Zheng was taken aback by Ba Fu, and Ba Fu was not lightly bluffed by Xiao Zheng's honor guard! A prince and a prince came to the door on behalf of the man to ask for a kiss in person, which clearly gave the Ba family full face, and in addition to the identities of Xiao Zheng and Li Tai, the Tang Dynasty sent Li Shimin to come to the door in person.

When they arrived at the gate of the mansion, the three Ba brothers saw that Gai Wenda was dressed as a matchmaker, and they were even more shocked and hurriedly came over to greet each other.

Gai Wenda was originally a famous Wenzong of the Tang Dynasty, and he was the teacher of Li Ke, the king of Shu, in Chengdu for seven or eight years.

After seeing the ceremony, Gai Wenda smiled and said to the three Ba brothers: "Today, King Wei and Xiao Gong came to the house to ask for marriage on behalf of the man's family, and the old man also lowered his face to be a matchmaker and begged for a few glasses of happy wine to drink."

Ba Zhongtian said to Gai Wenda excitedly: "Where did you come from the old man, I can't invite you on weekdays, the little girl is fortunate to be a matchmaker, everyone, please hurry!" ”。
