Chapter 108: Liu Xu gets married

Weddings in the Song Dynasty generally had the "six rites" of Nacai, asking for names, Najib, Nazheng, inviting dates, and greeting in person. However, Liu Xu is a single, and he doesn't understand many things, and Xu Yanxin is a person who practices martial arts, so he doesn't care much about those red tapes, and Liu Xu and Xu Jin'er have been engaged since childhood, so both parties to the wedding are willing to keep everything simple, so they quickly went straight to the point and set September 18 as the day of marriage.

Liu Xu didn't know anything about getting married, so Xu Yanxin and his wife had to work at both ends, and Liu Xu was very idle. During the time he came back to Qingzhou, Liu Xu visited Wang Zongyuan, Wang Zeng's uncle and nephew, visited Cui Ye and Cui Lao, and also went to Yunzhu, of course, Liu Xu had to go to his own winery and restaurant. Liu Xu was very leisurely during this time, as if he was not going to get married.

Liu Xu is also a rich man now, and he originally wanted to buy a yard in Qingzhou before getting married, but now he is going to Bianliang in a few days after he gets married, and his future is undecided, so there is no need to buy a yard in Qingzhou.

However, when Cui Ye was drinking with Liu Xu, he heard that Liu Xu was going to get married, so he had to give Liu Xu a three-entry courtyard of the Cui family's Liye Fang, so as not to look shabby when Liu Xu got married, and even lose face as a big brother. Liu Xu couldn't help but admire the Cui family's wealth, a three-entry courtyard in Liye Fang, I am afraid that it will take no less than a few hundred yuan to buy, and Liu Xu can't accept such a heavy gift. Cui Ye insisted on sending it, Liu Xu just didn't want it, and in the end, the two pushed back, and Liu Xu had to agree to use this courtyard as a wedding room for the time being, and when he went to Bianliang, he would return the courtyard to Cui Ye

In a courtyard of Liye Fang, there is a joyful atmosphere today. This courtyard is naturally the courtyard that Cui Ye gave to Liu Xucheng for his own use. This courtyard has three entrances and three exits, which is much more pompous than Liu Xu's original small courtyard with a single courtyard. As for the original subordinates and maids in the courtyard, they were naturally also used by Liu Xu. In the past few days, they have accompanied Liu Xu to clean up and decorate the yard with joy.

Today is the day when Liu Xu got married. Liu Xu is a single, as sworn brothers Cui Ye and Wang Zeng, it is incumbent on him to come over to help with it. Wang Zongyuan is a close friend of Liu Xu's father, and his nephew and Liu Xu are sworn brothers, so he also wants to help. Fortunately, Wang Zongyuan came to operate. Otherwise, Wang Zeng and Cui Ye, two people who have never been married, really don't know how to do many things. Today, Wang Zeng and Cui Ye were arranged by Wang Zongyuan to go to the gate of the hospital. is responsible for ushering in and sending off, and Wang Zongyuan sits in the courtyard to coordinate and direct various matters related to marriage.

Although many items in Liu Xu's "Six Rites" of marriage have been omitted, Liu Xu can't save this last "personal welcome" anyway, and he can't let the family send his daughter-in-law by himself!

As soon as the auspicious time arrived in the early morning, firecrackers rang out at the gate of the courtyard, and Liu Xu set off with a team to welcome relatives.

Liu Xu is wearing a lucky suit today. Riding a tall horse, he looks suave and talented. Next to him is Liu Xu's prime minister Ning Hao, who is also a talent. It's just that he has been practicing martial arts for many years, and his skin is a little darker.

The team was walking on the street, and Liu Xu said to Ning Hao with a bitter face: "Brother Ning, when I meet this son-in-law, I will all rely on Brother Ning to cover up!" ”

Ning Hao grinned and said, "It's okay, Brother Yunkai, you just have to rest assured." Everything is covered by my brother! ”

After Wang Zongyuan told Liu Xu about the plot of the woman's son-in-law yesterday, Liu Xu went to find Wang Zeng and Cui Ye as best men, and the two couldn't help shaking their heads like rattles, and they both said that they were weak and couldn't afford this battle. Liu Xu couldn't help but worry about this best man, and it happened that Ning Hao came to Liu Xu to help, so Liu Xu begged Ning Hao to be the best man, but Ning Hao agreed.

It turns out that this woman's son-in-law is vulgar and elegant. The groom recited the "Song to the Gate", "Song to the Middle Gate", "Song of the Lock", "Song to the Pile", "Song to the Hall", "Song of the Laying Goose", plus the most important "Song of the Makeup", the bride began to get up in the sedan chair. The son-in-law of the common people is relatively simple, and most of them arrange some women from relatives and neighborhoods to wait for the welcoming team to come, holding sticks and sticks, and beating the groom and others on their heads and faces, which is considered a son-in-law. This stick is not just for show, but also for real beating, and it is said that the bridegroom was seriously injured when he went to meet his relatives. Xu Yanxin is not an elegant person, he is a martial artist at all, and the son-in-law he arranged is naturally a stick to serve. However, Ning Hao didn't care, and said that a group of girls could have any strength, and he would cover it up when the time came, so that Liu Xu could not help but be moved

When the team turned into the alley of the Xujia Martial Arts Hall, Ning Hao was riding on a tall horse, and when he was jubilant and showing off his might, he suddenly felt a pain in his back, and he couldn't help but scream, "Oops! Who attacked me? Ning Hao felt a terrible pain in his back, and was just about to turn his head to look, when another stick-like object swept towards him in the air, bringing a faint sound of wind, which frightened Ning Hao into screaming, and quickly lowered his head to dodge.

The woman's whispering laughter came from all around, and countless bamboo poles and sticks beckoned to Liu Xu and Ning Hao who were riding on the horses.

Ning Hao screamed, tried to lower his body, and slammed the horse's belly and hugged the head of the mouse and ran away, and disappeared at the end of the street in a blink of an eye, I have to say that Ning Hao's riding skills are still quite good.

Liu Xu was so angry that he hurriedly drank his horse and moved forward while tightly protecting his head and face. Ning Hao, an unreliable bastard, was still blowing desperately just now, he covered everything, and he ran faster than anyone else when he came out when he met his son-in-law. His grandmother's must be hacked to death when I see him in the future! Depend on! What a stick, it hurts so much to beat someone! These aunts and grandmothers are also black, right? Yes! Heavy again!

Where did my father-in-law find so many women, what a lot! This is not a son-in-law, this is a naked scaring son-in-law!

It's outrageous, there are more people, I'm afraid I'm going to explain here tonight! Countless bamboo poles and sticks around him hit Liu Xu's head and back indiscriminately, and even his mount was tragically affected, and he was already screaming and struggling uneasily.

Liu Xu's riding skills were not as good as Ning Hao's, so he had to work hard to lower his body and hold the horse's body, and finally managed to fight his way out of the women's army and escape from the ambush circle. Behind him came the unbridled laughter of the group of women, laughing cheerfully and heartily.

Liu Xu went through all kinds of difficulties and dangers to rush through the ambush circle at the head of the alley, and came to the gate of the Xu family, but found that the gate of the Xu family was closed, and the surroundings were quiet. Liu Xu couldn't help but get off the horse to take a look, but at this time, he saw Ning Hao sneakily appearing from the corner of the wall.

"Brother Yunkai, it's okay, brother, I've been around to check around, and there is no other ambush!"

"You're going to die!" Liu Xu couldn't help but be furious when he saw this kid, and whipped the horsewhip over.

Ning Hao deftly dodged, and said with a shy smile: "On a happy day, don't say such unlucky words!" I'm sorry, I'm sorry! My brother was really scared, didn't you see it, the stick is thick, my old man didn't beat me so hard! I thought a group of girls didn't have much power to beat people, but I didn't expect it to be so ruthless! ”

Liu Xu said: "I'll settle accounts with you when I go back!" This, what, why is the door closed, has my father-in-law forgotten that today is the day of marriage? ”

Ning Hao looked at Liu Xu and said with some pity: "It seems that those girls are really ruthless enough, and they all beat my brother stupidly, thank you brother for coming with you, look at my brother!" ”

Ning Hao stood in front of the Xu family and said loudly: "My fair lady, the gentleman is good." Today, there is Liu Xu, a talented son of Qingzhou, who came to marry the lady of Xumen, please open the door! ”

The door squeaked, a crack in the door opened, and several white hands stretched out, Liu Xu looked at it a little strangely, not knowing what it meant.

Ning Hao saw Liu Xu in a daze, and said with a smile: "Brother, why are you still standing stupidly, hurry up and get the red envelope!" ”

Only then did Liu Xu understand that he was stretching out his hand and waiting to get the red envelope! Liu Xu hurriedly took out the red envelope that Wang Zongyuan asked him to prepare for him from his arms, and put one on each hand. This is a real red envelope, a purse sewn of red cloth filled with brand-new brass money, and the weight is not light.

The hands weighed the weight, obviously quite satisfied, and the door opened suddenly. Ning Hao was afraid that everyone in the courtyard would have other difficulties, so without waiting for everyone in the courtyard to react, he beckoned the team to greet his relatives and rushed in at once.

Entering the courtyard, of course, it was a lot of cumbersome etiquette, and it was finally enough to give a salute to his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and Liu Xu could finally go back with his bride.
