"......" Li Shimin, who listened to Liu Yuze's report, also shook his head, not knowing how to deal with this matter. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Aiqing, you are also ...... You're too nosy, aren't you? Now it's good! Take care of a daughter-in-law! You Liu Yuze didn't help because people were beautiful, right? ”
"No, Your Majesty......"
"Is that Sha Mei pretty?"
"Pretty, but Your Majesty ......"
"Is that Sha Mei gentle?"
"Gentle, but Your Majesty ......"
"Okay, don't talk about it, I'll remember this account for you, and when you come back, I'll give the hostage an explanation......"
"Your Majesty, what do you mean?"
"What else can you mean? Didn't you say that if you don't get married, you'll die? What else can I do!! Li Shimin shouted on the phone: "I asked you to go to Lingnan to transform well, not to look for flowers and ask willows, I only allow this kind of thing to happen once, if it happens a second time, you know the consequences!" In addition, your wedding must not be known to anyone except Yaozhai, and if I hear about it in other people's mouths in Chang'an, you can judge yourself to thank the world! ”
"I know, my ...... the emperor" Liu Yuze hung up the phone before Li Shimin finished speaking.
――――
Tangliang Zhai Shamei's house is full of lights and joy, and the table is full of pastries and cooked meat. Liu Yuze secretly asked Tang Liang Ergui and learned that this was called "Song Hall".
After a while, the dressed Sha Mei appeared in the song hall, glanced at Liu Yuze shyly, and the first sister's sister-in-law and sisters also accompanied the bride into the song hall, and then started singing, and the aunt and sister-in-law asked questions, and the first sister answered, but the way of asking questions and answering was singing......
"One flat shoulder with four nails, two shoulders to press a hundred catties, left and right for three or five years, who does Ah Mei pick?" One of the aunts of the first sister sang.
"Picking firewood is not afraid of the long mountain road, carrying water is not afraid of the deep well, the little girl has grown to more than 20, and a flat shoulder has been carried to this day." The first sister also sang, but she still didn't secretly glance at Liu Yuze.
"A flat shoulder has been picked up to the present, picking firewood, carrying water and picking people, picking one from far and near a hundred miles, and picking the good descendants of the Yao family." The aunt of the first sister also sang.
"Ten fingers are connected to the heart and flesh, and the little girl follows her mother in twenty autumns. Tomorrow I will go to my mother-in-law's house, respect the old and love the young. The first sister's mother also appeared in the song hall and sang.
"There is a ditch in front of my mother-in-law's house, which is connected to my mother's house for a long time, and I don't forget my mother's teachings when I go out, and I carry it in my arms bit by bit." A sister continued.
Liu Yuze was listening with relish, and the song hall ended in everyone's chorus: "There is no turning back arrow when the bow is opened, and Yang Fan is not going backwards; Ah Mei will be a pair tomorrow,
One love is a hundred years. Ah Mei will be the bride tomorrow, and someone will help her with laundry and water; Love is sprinkled all over the ponds and wells, and the sun does not dry when it sets in the sun. ”
Waiting for everyone to finish singing, Sha Mei left the song hall surrounded by everyone, Liu Yuze has not said a word to Sha Mei since then, Tang Liang Ergui watched it with relish, and muttered in his mouth: "The wine at noon is a little light, I hope the wine at night is not so light...... Besides, Daddy is too stingy and only allows me to have a drink......"
"You're still young, aren't you?" Liu Yuze said with a smile.
"What's small! I'm going to get married next year, and the woman is also Tang Liang's, and the relatives have already booked ......"
"What? How old are you? Liu Yuze teased.
"I'm going to be eleven soon......"
"Okay, you cow!" Liu Yuze gave him a thumbs up.
"Brother Yuze, congratulations, you are the groom...... Liu Gong also said coolly on a tree.
"Liu Gong, where did you go when you were eating wine at noon, I couldn't find you anywhere......"
"Ben Gao has something else to deal with...... Don't you think that Pan Ergui hasn't been looking for you all along? ”
Hearing what Liu Gong said, Liu Yuze understood what Liu Gong was doing, and quickly said: "You didn't do anything to him, did you?" ”
"Not so much!"
"I'll take a look at him later......"
"Don't!" Liu Gong hurriedly stopped.
"What's wrong?" Liu Yuze asked suspiciously.
"Hey, hey, spicy! Spicy eyes!! Still don't think it's wonderful......"
On the second day, the wedding officially began, and since Liu Yuze did not have a house here, the elder directly cleaned up one of his side rooms and made it Liu Yuze's wedding room.
When a sister goes out at home, she is carried out by her uncle, and only let a sister walk when she can't see the door, and the third sister of the marrying girl accompanies a sister to arrive at the place of greeting, and the band blows and dances around a sister three times, indicating that "the dragon sings and the phoenix dances", and then, the greeter accompanies a sister to go forward, and the send-off person follows, singing and laughing along the way, and the band blows non-stop. If the performance stops for a while, the first sister will stop. When they arrived at the elder's house, the first sister stopped, and the band went into the house to play for a while, indicating that the house was full of joy. At this time, Liu Yuze personally brought out a basin of hot water, washed the feet of the first sister, and put on new "chicken shoes". After the first sister entered the house, she sent her relatives and guests to stay in front of the door temporarily, wash her face, drink tea, and eat welcome meat, and then Liu Yuze brought them into the lobby room to rest under the guidance of the kitchen officer. In the evening of the wedding, the bride, groom and parents and relatives are sung by the cook, and the band blows every word the cook. When worshipping the church, only Liu Yuze worshipped alone, and the first sister just stood next to him to accompany him. In the accompaniment of music, Liu Yuze held the traditional "belt" of Yaozhai in both hands, and was led by the kitchen officer to kneel and bow to the elders present one by one. (Among them, the headdress worn by the first sister during the worship of the church, the "belt" and the headscarf held by Liu Yuze should be treasured in the most hidden place after the worship of the church, and will never be used again, and can not be taken out for use as funeral objects until she dies.) This is one of the wedding customs of Yaozhai) A sister and Liu Yuze worshipped heaven and earth and their parents, and then entered the cave room. The guests were greeted with a feast of alcoholic beverages......
"The Spring Festival is worth a thousand gold...... Liu Yuze said with emotion, he was about to go to the cave room immediately, but was stopped by Tang Liang Ergui.
"Can't go!"
"Huh?"
"The rules left by our dog gods! The groom can't sleep with the bride on the night of the wedding! There are already people in Sister's cave room, so you can wash and sleep......"
"What? Then who does your sister sleep with? ”
"The third sister and the aunt...... In short, no men are allowed in Sister A's bed tonight! Why don't you sleep with me at night, brother-in-law? We hugged each other and slept together......"
Liu Yuze closed his head and thought about the picture for a while, "Don't! Spicy eyes!! I'd better find my own place to sleep!! ”

(Finally finished writing this paragraph, the author Jun in order to write a good Yaozhai living conditions and customs, read a lot of information, but it is inevitable that there will be mistakes, I hope that people who really understand the culture of Yaozhai will bear more, after all, the author Jun is not a minority person, there must be something I don't know about their living conditions...... In addition, the legend of Qianjiatong and Qianjiatong does exist, and the following text in quotation marks is from Baidu Encyclopedia for everyone to understand: "According to legend, in ancient times, King Ping raised a dragon dog with five-color markings. King Ping's dog is like a treasure. One year, King Gao's strong army invaded the land of King Ping, and none of the ministers of civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty took the expedition to fight, King Ping was worried about this, so he posted a recruitment list: Whoever can enlist to defeat King Gao will marry the three princesses to him and crown him king. At this time, the dragon dog stepped forward and unveiled the emperor's list, willing to fight for King Ping and defend the country. Subsequently, the dragon dog went deep into the enemy's nest, plotted to bite King Gao to death, and returned his head title to King Ping for his merits. In order to reward the dragon dog for his merits and fulfill his promise, King Ping married the third princess to the dragon dog and named him the king of Panhu, that is, the king of Pan. But the dragon dog is also a dog, even at night he is a beautiful offspring. For the dignity of the royal family, King Ping sent King Pan and the three princesses to the isolated Qianjiatong, after King Pan and the three princesses married, they gave birth to six boys and six girls, and King Ping gave each a surname (that is, the earliest twelve surnames of the Yao people). They multiply and multiply in Qianjiatong, and develop Qianjiatong into beautiful and rich: it is surrounded by mountains, dense forests, mountain flowers are undefeated in all seasons, and hundreds of birds contend; Countless clear streams merge into rivers that run through the mountains; There are four large fields in the mountains, the soil is fertile, and a thousand families cultivate them together, and the grains growing in the fields are the size of peanuts. Everyone lives in abundance. One year, the grain officer came to Qianjiatong, and the Yao family was hospitable, and everyone was hospitable, taking turns to entertain the grain officer. The grain officer did not reply to the government for a long time, and the government thought that the grain officer had been killed, so he sent soldiers and horses to attack, and Qianjiatong became a land of blood and fire for a while. The twelve Yao people who were lucky enough to survive were also forced to flee. Before leaving, they sacrificed to Panwang Temple, sawed the horns into 12 pieces, and each surname took a piece, wishing that when the 12 horns were gathered in the future, the Yao people would have the day to return to Qianjiatong. "In fact, in the modern Yao people, there are many villages that also worship dragon dogs as their ancestors...... )
