Chapter 63: The Officiating Marriage
After a day of receiving gifts, his hands were a little sore, and his face was a little stiff with a smile, and when Wan Qiyang looked at Uncle Ma, he felt that the smile was full of satisfaction and happiness from the deep forehead lines. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoIt turns out that the happiness of ordinary people is so simple, every meal can be eaten, so that the offspring can grow up healthily, and when they grow up, they can marry a daughter-in-law or marry a man without starving. The main reason is because the people at this time are kind and peaceful.
Yes, Wan Qiyang feels everything now, at this time the water still has a sweet taste, the sky is still blue, the air is fresh, the folk customs are simple, and the neighbors are harmonious.
It has been more than a week since Wan Qiyang came to the Ming Dynasty, and now he has fully integrated into the rhythm of life in this era.
On the third day, that is, the big day of the pillar, Wan Qiyang suggested early in the morning that the wedding banquet should be divided into two parts, mainly to take care of some of the female dependents, that is, the men sat on one side and the women sat on the other. Without interfering with each other, men will have wine to drink, and women will also have vegetables and meat to eat.
And Wan Qiyang became a god stick again at this time, fooling everyone to say that it was calculated that it was after noon at thirteen o'clock, that is, at that time, the earth matched the birthday of the pillar. Originally, Wan Qiyang wanted to start at twelve o'clock at noon by modern standards, but when he thought about it, he was still a little in awe of noon in this era, because no matter what dynasty executed prisoners at noon, so he may have some ideas, so Wan Qiyang said that it was not time, that is, the time between one and three o'clock in the afternoon.
Of course, Uncle Ma has no opinion on Wan Qianyang's arrangement. At the same time, he also informed the kitchen and some of the people who helped to explain the time of the feast, and then Wan Qiyang first got some food for the bride to send over, of course, this is in the name of the pillar, otherwise the bride will have to wait until the groom has finished drinking before going back to remove the hijab. At this time, there is no custom of making a hole in the house, and some of them are sprinkled with candy and small money everywhere in the new house, so that the children can make noise in the room and roll on the bed, which means that the birth of a noble son early will lead to a good life in the coming year.
The bride was at her mother's house first and then let the groom carry her to the cave room, but Wan Qiyang remembered the wedding of the later generations at this time and felt that it could be neutralized, so Wan Qiyang said to Uncle Ma: "Uncle Ma, can you let the pillar wedding be presided over?" I arranged it this way, because Mr. Fu's house and our family are very close, too close. Directly from his house to carry the new daughter-in-law to our house is not lively, you see I arrange it this way, let the pillar carry the bride to the banquet, and then the parents of both sides sit on the rostrum, and the pillar and the young girl toast the second elder, and then worship the hall to get married, and finally send it to the cave room. In this way, parents on both sides also have face, and at the same time, let everyone testify. ”
Uncle Ma still smiled and said to Wan Qiyang: "Yangzai, Uncle Ma agrees, I know that these are all for the good of the pillar, do as you say!" Hahaha, my old horse has lived a glorious life in this life, Uncle Yang Zai Ma wants to thank you, without all this you have done, our Ma family still doesn't know what it is like to be poor! ”
"Uncle Ma, you said this kind of thing again, you said that the family doesn't need to be so polite, besides, how old are you, what a lifetime, today is also a good day for you to be old, okay, now there is about one or more hours to leave the banquet, and there are still some guests to come." Wan Qiyang also immediately went to prepare for the wedding procedure he had just suggested, first of all, he had to communicate with the groom's official pillar, otherwise he would be at a loss at a loss.
After arranging all this, I checked back and forth, and finally walked to the drummer's side, and found that this group of people who ate professional meals were really dedicated, and they never stopped.
"Stop, rest, rest! Listen to me and drink saliva," Wan Qiyang asked people to bring water, so that all the drummers could drink some water and then rest, and at the same time told him for a while to look at his gestures when he spoke, he stopped and let him blow. And also arranged seats for these people, Wan Qiyang is an unprecedented treatment for these people, you must know that in this era, the profession is divided into noble and lowly, especially businessmen in recent years, originally a low value, but since the rise of shipping, the development of handicrafts, so with money in hand, the value is naturally much higher.
But for artists like this, including actors and cooks, they all belong to a status level, belong to the lower ninth-rate professions, and in the Ming Dynasty, they emphasized literature and light martial arts, even if they were a showman, they would be respected by everyone. But Wan Qiyang is now a person, and in his heart, there is no distinction between high and low.
Of course, these drummers are very happy in their hearts, and it is the first time that they can be treated like this! So if you have enough rest, you can muster up the strength to blow harder.
In a flash, it was the auspicious time that Wan Qiyang said, and everyone entered the banquet, and at this time, a large group of children surrounded the groom's official pillar and carried the bride's son, Qingmiao Girl, from home to the wedding banquet scene.
At this time, Wan Qiyang commanded everyone to stand up and applaud, and the road went straight to the position of the rostrum, Wan Qiyang had already given the children in the three villages candy to eat, as well as copper coins, so that everyone could pick off the wildflowers that had bloomed, and take all the petals, and then sprinkle them on the road.
At this time, the pillar was walking on the path sprinkled with flower petals, and at the end of the road were two stools, on which both parents were sitting. Of course, this is Wan Qianyang's arrangement, at this moment, the pillar carried the bride to the parents of both sides, and Wan Qiyang signaled the drummer to stop.
"Fellow fathers and fellow villagers, please be quiet!" Then the drummer slammed the hammer, "Boom". With this sound, the crowd attending the banquet suddenly fell silent.
"Today is the groom's official pillar and the new daughter-in-law Qingmiao's big day, welcome everyone's presence and congratulations, here on behalf of the groom and the bride to express my heartfelt thanks to everyone's arrival, as the saying goes: 'ten years to repair the same boat, a hundred years to sleep together,' today in the witness of the old folks, the couple will be married, as the eldest brother I congratulate you first, I wish you both happiness and eternal life! Let's start worshipping the church and worship heaven and earth! The two of them bowed to the sky and then bowed down again.
"Two worship the high hall! Zhuzi, you have to toast your father and mother on behalf of yourself and Qingmiao, the two elders raised you so much, and now that you are an adult, you will have to honor the two elders well in the future. ”
"Daddy, the child got married today, you have worked hard, I wish you two good health." After speaking, he dried the wine in the wine glass, and Wan Qiyang poured it again. "The pillar has grown up, and we are relieved to be able to say these words! Zhuzi, you have to live a good life with Qingmiao, no matter what, you can't forget your big brother, you know? ”
"Zhuzi, toast to your father-in-law and mother-in-law, they let you marry such a big baby girl, this Qingmiao is beautiful and sensible, you kid is really blessed."
"Father-in-law and mother-in-law, Zhuzi is also half of your son, not only did I marry your daughter, Qingmiao also found half a son for the second elder, and everyone will be a family in the future! I also wish the second elder good health and happiness in his old age! ”
"Zhuzi, I didn't expect you to say these words, your mother-in-law and I are also at ease, Qingmiao will marry you, we will be relieved, I hope you will grow old together and give birth to a noble son early!"
