Chapter 180: The Death of the Peach (I)
For the family that takes a wife, this is considered a happy event; For the family that marries a daughter, it is not a great joy...... Especially in the vein of Wang Xizhi, who does not pay attention to customs and etiquette and is relatively cohesive among family members, marrying a daughter means that a family member who gets along day and night will leave here and become someone else's woman or daughter for a longer time, or even a mother or grandmother of another family. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
At least after Nanyang Liu's sedan chair picks up Wang Mengjiang, the huge Wang family will become deserted, because the next wedding has nothing to do with them, what is really related to them is Wang Mengjiang's return to his parents' home after marrying.
Wang Ningzhi couldn't be easy, because he wanted to send his sister to Liu's and bring the dowry over by the way.
Today is a good day, auspicious day, conducive to marriage, this is the morning, the sun rises, warm, so that the autumn day is a little warmer, the clear sky is cloudless, the empty sky is blue, clear as if the people or things on the ground can be reflected.
There are not many people who come to the Wang family, most of them are relatives on Wang Xizhi's side and some families close to each other, in addition, most of them are gifts sent by distant intersecting families, etc., which are actually part of the gifts given to the Liu family, after all, this is not the place where the wedding is held.
The groom and the sedan chair have not yet come, and Wang Ningzhi is in a hurry to receive the guests.
Although it is not much, it is enough for him to be busy, standing at the door and picking up people one by one:
"Uncle Jingwen (Wang Huizi), come all the way and work hard......"
"Uncle Tiger...... Why did you come, I've been waiting for you for a long time. ”
"Monk Mi is also here, it seems that Yuan Lin can't come, Huan Gong should be very busy over there......"
……
Most of them are the children of the Langya Wang family, in addition to the children of a few families who are relatively close, such as Yu Fu, Yu Fu mixed in the crowd, after coming in, he finally took a free time from Wang Ningzhi, pulled Wang Ningzhi aside, and laughed a little gloating.
"What's so funny, why didn't you go to Nanyang County, but came here instead?" Wang Ningzhi asked.
"Although I am hospitable, I don't like to travel far, Nanyang County is a bit far away for me, it is better to eat and drink here, presumably your Wang family will not treat me badly, right." Yu Fu's clothes were the same as when he first saw him, but the clothes inside seemed to be thicker, but they were still covered with peaches. Flower. Hue. 's coat, with a straw hat on his head, free and uninhibited, looking left and right while talking, and smiled at Wang Ningzhi, "However, I don't mention it here, but you are here...... Something seems to be wrong. ”
"What's the problem?" Wang Ningzhi narrowed his eyes.
"Didn't you notice that I came alone, and I didn't even bring a little guy with me."
Wang Ningzhi instantly realized: "You came here in advance...... Who else is behind? ”
"Nanzi, of course." Yu Fu looked like you were finished, smiled lowly, and seemed to think of something very interesting, "Nanyang Liu's wedding was passed by my uncle, and Nanzi and I both came here, but there must be a difference between men and women, maybe the time is a little later, men and women come to play separately, and Ling Jiang will receive Nanzi, and at that time, you must have also come back from Liu's place, tsk...... I can't wait to see that. ”
Shaking his head helplessly, Wang Ningzhi glared at Yu Fu: "Okay, you are Yu Zimei, you don't persuade Nanzi and let her go to Nanyang County ......"
"What does it have to do with me, anyway, my little sister doesn't listen to me now." Yu Fu was still smiling and saying, and when he was about to provoke Wang Ningzhi, he suddenly pointed outside and said, "Go quickly, the sedan chair is coming." ”
The sound of gongs and drums from far and near, the sound became louder and louder, and the front yard of the entire Wang's Grange suddenly became lively, a group of people gathered at the door, all watching the excitement, and some children shouted "The bridegroom is here".
The greeting team stopped at the door, and Liu Chang in front walked over slowly, his eyes swept over a group of people, with excitement on his face, and he stepped forward and shouted: "The son-in-law has seen his father-in-law, mother-in-law, and brother Shuping......
Wang Ningzhi smiled and agreed, at this time he was a junior and insurmountable, so he watched Liu Chang call everyone he knew, and then ask the bride, but at this time, there were already some rules for picking up the bride, which was considered to give the groom a dismount, which was said to help the bride's status in the in-law's family...... He didn't know about this, and he had never been married in his previous life, but it didn't prevent him from observing.
A group of people coaxed, and then came up with the title of difficult Liu Chang, such as Wang Xizhi's good calligraphy, since he wanted to study the calligraphy, and suddenly the slaves and maids came out, and the case, pen, ink, paper, and inkstone were done in an orderly manner, as if they were prepared in advance, and Liu Chang wanted to make a poem with this scene, and he also wanted to write it...... This is not only about the level of poetry, but also about calligraphy.
This kind of trick, even if Wang Ningzhi didn't participate in it, he knew that he should be prepared in advance, but everyone knew this, but he wouldn't bring it up randomly, after all, it was a festive picture.
He didn't look any further, but saw that the others were not paying attention, secretly walked back, slipped behind the crowd, and walked in along the path, and not long after, stopped in front of a small courtyard, and the guards and slaves saw him come in, and hurriedly welcomed him in, and asked a little sadly: "Erlang, has the bridegroom already arrived?" ”
Wang Ningzhi replied "arrived" and entered the small courtyard, but was surrounded by the women in the courtyard.
He Shi, Xi Daomao, Yu Yao and Xie Daoyun, they stopped Wang Ningzhi, He Shi, as the oldest, naturally opened his mouth and said: "Ah, there is a bride inside, Erlang, what are you doing in a hurry?" ”
"Ready? Liu Shumao is estimated to be coming in. Wang Ningzhi asked.
"It's been ready for a long time, just waiting for the bridegroom to come in...... But, Erlang, do we really want him to guess like that? He was a little puzzled, and in terms of her character, she really didn't like to embarrass others.
As soon as He finished speaking, before Wang Ningzhi could answer, Xie Daoyun next to him said: "Sister-in-law, don't be embarrassed, this is a convention, a little joke, but it is mixed with blessings, don't feel bad, not to mention that even if he guesses wrong, can we still let him take the bride away?" ”
Wang Ningzhi said with a smile: "Yes, it's a festive picture, a group of people love to be lively, let's just follow the meaning, anyway, we have to spend the day in the excitement today......"
Before he finished speaking, there was a noise outside, and then surrounded by a group of people, Liu Chang walked in with a smile on his face, and it seemed that he had passed the topic outside easily. (To be continued.) )
