Chapter 148: Chen Baili's Wedding (1)
The flowers and plants in the courtyard are a little more withered, and it seems that this spring will soon pass. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info And Chen Baichuan, it has been four days since he returned to Chen Guo.
The Chen Mansion was very lively at this time, and people could be seen everywhere, and even the most quiet back house in the past was occupied by the maidservants who arranged the wedding room. The walls, pillars, and doors of the house were all plastered with double happiness. This group of hateful people did not even spare the stable, so that, except for the trough that was invaded by Double Happiness, the horses all wore a big red flower on their heads.
Butler Lu, who took on the wedding as soon as he returned home, was so busy everywhere that he was dizzy.
Invitations to guests should be written. Those who can be invited to today's banquet, except for the dignitaries and nobles, who are the confidants and friends of the two masters, are all people who cannot be treated lightly. Steward Lu immediately decided to glue a few gold leaves to the red paper produced by Daheng, and then use Lantian jade as a button.
The banquet shall be purchased. This is simple, call the hottest restaurant in the city, let their chefs do all the tricks, and the delicacies of the mountains and seas must be placed on the table. Then from the wine cave brought the moonshine brew and Moutai made by the little master, which will definitely make everyone eat and drink.
The rest of the guests are greeted by guests, arranged the wedding room, and married the newlyweds, etc., all of which have to be given a charter by Steward Lu, and he Steward Lu is not three-headed and six-armed, so busy that he doesn't even have time to sit down and drink saliva.
"Lord Yuan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, has arrived!"
"Master Taichangqing is here!"
"Master Liu has arrived!"
…………
The names of the guests that popped out of the mouths of the porter were the first to be contested. The servants of the Chen Mansion are also considered to have seen the world, so they are not surprised. On the contrary, it was a group of lazy people gathered around the door to watch the excitement, and I never heard the surprised cries in their mouths.
"Ouch, isn't it rumored that Lord Yuan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, is not smiling, but today it is like eating sugar."
"The one in the criminal department is still as cold as ice, you see, his face is not full of smiles."
……
"The bride is coming, the bride is coming!"
The crowd on the outside suddenly stirred, and the crowd parted ways amid the chirping and chattering, and eight white horses draped in red cloth marched in unison, pulling a red sedan chair behind them.
Chen Baili, the groom, was just about to step forward to greet his relatives, but a team of people came out from behind the sedan chair and stopped him. More than a dozen people, led by a handsome young man, looked at Chen Baili with a vigilant face.
"You are?"
Chen Baili saw that someone stopped him, and remembered the customs of Chen Guo's marriage, and there seemed to be a clause in it that before the woman got off the sedan chair, her family could make things difficult for the man.
The handsome young man looked at the age of being in his teens, and estimated that he should be the younger brother of his future sister-in-law, and Chen Baichuan, who was standing behind the groom's official, watched this scene. He also wanted to see what problems the Jiang family would come up with to make things difficult for his brother.
The smile on the corner of the handsome young man's mouth was mocking, he stood in place with his hands behind him, and raised his head and said, "I am Jiang Fanyun of the Jiang family, the bride's brother." According to the old custom, I will ask you three questions, and when you answer them, you will naturally let the bride enter the door. ”
Brother?! Chen Baichuan's eyes were full of contempt, and he glanced at Chen Baili, who was still light-hearted, this guy turned out to be an old cow eating tender grass. The handsome boy looks like he is only seventeen or eighteen years old, and his sister is sixteen years old. Sin, although the sixteen-year-old woman is much more mature than the men of her age, she has not even passed puberty.
I saw Chen Baili say lightly: "If you have any questions, try to raise them." My brother is here today, so let him answer for me. ”
The handsome young man is coming to Chen Du's parents today as "someone else's child", as a leader among his peers, he has long wanted to meet Chen Baichuan in Chen Xiaochen for a while. A young genius who is famous all over the world, how many catties and taels are there, I will mention it today and weigh it.
The handsome young man stood in the limelight, the twilight of spring with a slight wind blowing the tips of his hair, the coolness slipped into the collar and was a little cold, but he still stood with his head held high. He's here to challenge Chen Baichuan.
Chen Baichuan, who had planned not to go to this troubled water, saw that his opponent turned out to be a little hairy boy who didn't know the height of the sky, and his interest in making a move became more and more lacking. It wasn't until Chen Baili, who was wearing a red groom's dress, leaned on him and whispered a few words in his ear that Chen Baichuan said with a red face: "Then you can't go back!" ”
So, Chen Baichuan, someone else's child, walked out from behind Chen Baili and said quite cooperatively: "You are Jiang Fanyun who is famous in Chen Guo!" I heard that you were literate at the age of three and became a poet at the age of seven, and you are actually the first young talent in Chen Guo. ”
Jiang Fanyun didn't expect that Chen Baichuan, who was miraculous in the mouths of his parents, would think so highly of himself. The flame in his heart called Zhonger burned higher, his face was full of red light, and the thick excitement in his eyes burst out. He said in a rather proud tone:
"I'm Jiang Fanyun, it's good to have heard my name. Today is the wedding day of the sister, it is not good to miss the auspicious time, and I hope that Chen Baichuan will live up to your reputation and answer before the auspicious time. The first question is very simple, you answer me to an arithmetic problem, and if you say the answer, you will pass. ”
After a pause, Jiang Fanyun continued.
"The wall is ten feet high, and the tree ants climb it. Two feet during the day and one foot at night. Q, how many days does it take to climb this wall? ”
"Nine days."
Jiang Fanyun's eyes widened, not understanding why the other party could say the answer without thinking. This question was inspired by the fact that I saw ants climbing the wall in the shade of my backyard, and it stands to reason that no one except myself knew the answer in advance.
Chen Baichuan yawned as if he was sleepy, and said provocatively: "It turns out that Jiang Gongzi is nothing more than this under the fame, these problems can be easily solved at the age of less than ten, if it is still a problem at this level, it is better to release people directly." ”
"You!" Jiang Fanyun's Ling Ran's momentum just now was nowhere to be found, but he was not discouraged, but was aroused by Chen Baichuan's competitive spirit. The last question was from my grandfather, which was extremely exquisite, and the mystery was only understood after being mentioned.
"Good mountains, good water, good wind, good moon, beautiful autumn. You say the next link. ”
"Infatuation, infatuation, infatuation, infatuation, infatuation,
The answer was said in an instant, Jiang Fanyun only felt that there were thousands of grass and mud horses passing by in his heart, is this still a human being? However, I have my grandfather's question in my hand.
"The last question, a quarter of an hour is still in the auspicious hour. Chen Baichuan, as long as you admit defeat, I can also release him directly. ”
"Don't talk nonsense."
Jiang Fanyun snorted lightly, and the appearance of winning was particularly lacking.
"Inch of land is the temple, the temple is next to the poem, the poem says: send the monk back to the ancient temple tomorrow."
This time it was Chen Baichuan's turn to be surprised, and the answer to this sentence appeared in his mind instantly, and the same was true for the first two questions. It seems that Wang Jianxian not only let himself remember everything, but also let these things be integrated in his mind. Isn't this a lie down to win? (To be continued.) )
