Chapter 235: Flower Candle in the Cave Room
Before the Qin and Han dynasties and even the Qin and Han dynasties, the wedding ceremony was relatively simple, generally the new official came to the parents-in-law's house with the wedding car, invited the bride to get on the car, and the elders of the bride's family said some words of encouragement to the bride respectively, educating her to be a filial daughter-in-law, and then the bride boarded the car to the husband's house and held a joint ceremony with her husband.
However, after hundreds of years of development, the rules began to change a little, and seeing the sticks in the hands of Cui Bai and others, Han Rui had a headache, knowing that this was a barricade in the process of welcoming relatives, and he wanted to make things difficult for Xinxuan, which is the so-called son-in-law, in order to establish the bride's status in the family.
"Stick kill, get off the horse, Twenty-one Lang, be careful yourself." Qian Feng admonished, very unrighteous, and Helan Chushi and others retreated, gloating and watching lively.
"Han Rui, you are leading the team to menacing, what do you want?" Cui Bai asked knowingly, with a sly smile on his face, rubbing the stick in his hand from time to time, obviously with bad intentions.
"Today, there is something in the Zheng Mansion, so I will not accept it, so you can come again." The brother-in-law seemed to be smiling, and his actions were even more desperate, with a wave of his hand, more than a dozen servants with sticks in their hands ran out in small steps, lined up on both sides, like above the public court, hitting the ground with sticks, and the sound was loud.
Really change your words and come again, the first one who doesn't agree, I'm afraid it will be you, Han Rui muttered in his heart, didn't care about the thick powder falling, squeezed out a bright smile, and said while stepping forward: "Vader, I'm here to welcome your sister......"
"Stop, come up again, and ...... Beat. ”
Under an order, more than a dozen stick shadows whirred and waved, rolling up gusts of wind and dust, naturally, it looked full of intimidation, and it really fell on Han Rui, but it was extremely measured, there was not much strength, and the stick was wrapped in silk and cotton cloth, and when it came to beating people, there was not much pain at all, but it was a little embarrassing, Han Rui resisted left and right, and finally retreated in embarrassment, causing everyone next to him to be uproared and laughing.
It's good to say that after making a fuss for half an hour, he still couldn't enter the door, wiped his forehead, wiped off most of the fat powder, and Han Rui complained in a low voice: "Hey, you guys, you haven't come to help yet." ”
Holding back laughter, Qian Feng and others rushed up, handing over money and fruits, and setting friendships, and promised to treat them, and finally sent Cui Ba's gang of gentlemen away, but Zheng Weide was unmoved, and emphasized loudly that he had a deep relationship with Zheng Nao's sister and brother, and he was reluctant to marry her, and he would never give up if he didn't beat the groom away.
This kid, just a small profit can't impress him, he obviously wants the lion to open his mouth, Han Rui slandered, smiled, pulled Zheng Weide away two steps, and whispered: "What do you want, you might as well open a price." ”
Count your knowledge, Zheng Weide was proud in his heart, and whispered: "What kind of Spring Breeze Building, I also want to go." ”
"You...... No, my father-in-law knows about it, and I can't afford to blame it. Han Rui said, but it is not a joke, the Zheng family is a family heirloom with courtesy, and the family education is strict, so Zheng Renji really knows that he took Zheng Weide to have fun, and the first one to turn his face may be Zheng Naoyu.
"Why can't Uncle Nineteen go, I can't go." Zheng Weide complained, snorted, and said loudly: "If it doesn't work, forget it, someone is coming, there is a wicked guest coming to the door, and he will be blown away......"
Obviously, Han Rui didn't buy Zheng Weide, Lang Zi or Lang Jun, who has more weight, the servants naturally know that although they have a kind face and a smile, they are holding sticks high in their hands, shouting and killing, and bluffing.
Helpless, Han Rui pulled his brother-in-law to the side again, pointed at Qian Feng and said, "Okay, you can go to that little fat man later, and he will arrange it properly." ”
"That's pretty much it." Zheng Weide was satisfied.
With a sigh, Han Rui smiled and said, "Then, let them go." ”
"Nope." Zheng Weide said, categorically, a bit of a turn of face and denial of people.
Han Rui was surprised: "What's the matter?" ”
"My sister is grooming, you can wait a little longer." Zheng Weide said, intentionally or unintentionally, his voice was a little higher, and everyone next to him could hear it clearly.
The bride is naturally reluctant to give up her mother's family, and does not go out for a long time under the pretext that the makeup is not finished, in order to catch up with the auspicious time, at this time, she has to read the hypnotic poem, and the custom of the hypnotic poem is the same everywhere, there are groom's own works, and there are also others who do it on their behalf, but with Han Rui's current reputation, he just wants others to do it, and I'm afraid no one dares to do this.
At this time, the servant next to him had already prepared, presented a page of beautifully made notepaper, handed over a pen, Han Rui smiled, smeared it at will, wrote a hypnotic poem, handed it to Qian Feng and others, and asked them to sing in unison.
"The smoke tree is hanging down and the apricot, the picking children are holding the Hehuan cup, the is not a fairy song, and they are competing to lead Qin E to the Fengtai."
Chanting back and forth, the voice came into the Zheng Mansion, and after a while, there was a burst of movement in the house, the door was opened, and under the left and right of Zheng Renji and Cui's family, Zheng Nao, who was wearing a hairpin dress and a red silk veil on his head, walked over, and faintly heard a faint cry.
After getting married, he left his married family and became someone else's daughter-in-law, and he was naturally reluctant to cry, and crying was inevitable, so Han Rui would not misunderstand, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, but Cui's ignored it, and just took Zheng Nao's slender hand, admonished him in every way, instructed him in every way, and taught him earnestly.
Helpless, Han Rui sneered, fortunately Zheng Renji did not forget this son-in-law, sighed, and admonished: "Han Rui, Nao Yue is the pearl of the Zheng family, and now it is handed over to you, don't lose her." ”
Back and forth, Han Rui was submissive, and agreed repeatedly, almost without pointing to the sky and the earth as an oath, and after another half an hour, seeing that Zheng Renji and Cui Shi did not mean to stop, Han Rui did not dare to urge, and obediently listened to the lesson.
In the end, it seemed that he also realized that the time had dragged on for a long time, and if he didn't leave, he would delay the auspicious time, so Cui's family stopped, full of sadness and affection, and Zheng Renji reluctantly helped Zheng Nao to make an appointment with Qibao Xiang car, which not only Han Rui breathed a sigh of relief, but Qian Feng and others were also relieved, cheered up, and prepared to go home.
The car took a few steps, and stopped again, but saw Cui Ba and a few people, set up a roadblock, with a thief smile on his face, this is the third difficulty encountered when welcoming relatives after his son-in-law and urging makeup, obstacle car, Han Rui sighed bitterly, waved his hand, and the servants did not slack off, and handed over all the gifts on their shoulders to Cui Ba and them.
After collecting enough tolls, Cui Bai and the others agreed to let them go, and Han Rui didn't stay any longer, greeted him in a hurry, said goodbye to Zheng Renji and them, and hurriedly drove back. Seeing the convoy leaving, Zheng Renji was stunned, slowly calmed down, quietly comforted Cui's family, showed a smile, and said loudly: "Today, Zheng Mansion will marry a daughter, and set up a banquet to entertain guests from all over the world, if you have time, you may as well come." ”
I heard that I could barely listen to it, and I naturally responded a lot, took out the red paper, sealed a few coins, used it as a red envelope, begged for a lottery, and then walked into the Zheng Mansion to enjoy the delicious food.
The Zheng Mansion is naturally full of guests, full of friends, but the Han family is not bad, Han Rui got married, and the powerful officials who came to congratulate in person, although there are not many, but they sent servants to send the congratulations, and some of the good relations came to congratulate in person, a lively and extraordinary scene.
Moreover, when he saw the return of the welcoming team, it set off a high tide, Han Rui smiled, and after the Baoxiang car stopped, he lifted the curtain lightly and led Zheng Nao to get out of the car, and everyone poured out, vying to see the bride's demeanor, but unfortunately Zheng Naoyu was wearing a hat veil, so naturally he couldn't see his appearance, but his slender figure was gorgeous and colorful, like Xia Wei's hairpin dress, which also made them sigh.
After all, this is a royal gift, not to mention anything else, just the name of the royal family can make people look impressive.
At this time, firecrackers burned in front of the door, the sound of beeping was particularly pleasant to the ear, holding a colorful ribbon in his hand, Han Rui was full of spring breeze, and took the lead in walking towards the courtyard.
Later, it was naturally Zheng Naoyue, supported by Liuying and the painting screen, cautiously moving forward, and when he walked to the threshold, the slender steps suddenly stopped, because according to the old custom, the bride could not touch the ground when she entered the door of the man's house, and she had to lay a felt or mat.
The two stepped on the grain bag and walked into the courtyard, implying that the newlyweds would inherit the family and have a bright future, Han Rui's pace deliberately slowed down, and guided Zheng Nao to come to the Qinglu tent in the chapel.
Looking at Han Rui with kind eyes, Han Hui was relieved in his heart, and laughed loudly: "The auspicious time is here, and the newcomer will worship the church." ”
Everyone was in an uproar, the sound of blessings was endless, Han Rui bowed his hand to thank him, but he did not hesitate, he knelt down with Zheng Nao, bowed to him, kowtowed, and after the salute, he was naturally sent to the cave room.
Surrounded by everyone, Han Rui held Zheng Naoyuo's slender hand without leaving a trace, sensing her joy and shyness, as well as hesitation and nervousness, he felt empathy in his heart, and used a little more force in his hand, held it tightly, and did not let go for a long time.
After the worship hall, the newlyweds enter the cave room, there are ceremonies such as scattering tents, watching flowers and candles, closing the house, but fan, etc., in the whole process, the guests who come to visit, regardless of the young and old, some compete for money and fruits, and some are dedicated to the bride to make problems, called making women, but also pinching the proportion, not too much.
However, Han Rui was not so lucky, after the ceremony, everyone said goodbye, and by the way, Han Rui went out, it was still early, and it was not the time for the round house, he must have to go out to drink with everyone, entertain guests, and be happy with the newlyweds, Han Rui naturally became the object of everyone's drinking, almost taking turns to fight, and he had the intention of not getting drunk and refusing to give up.
At this time, the role of Qian Feng and others was reflected, under the benefit of Han Rui's promise, they gave full play to the spirit of not being afraid of getting drunk or vomiting, one fell, more than a dozen stood up, went forward one after another, and had the courage to block the wine, and finally let Han Rui persist to the end and get out.
As if fleeing, he returned to the inner house, walked a few steps quietly, pushed open the door, and a touch of red light yarn floated in, like a dream, like Han Rui's current mood, looking up, only to see that in the night sky, the moon was like a silver hook, and the silver moonlight reflected a few feather-like light clouds, sprinkling infinite clear light, and his heart was suddenly as quiet as water, and he walked forward.
