Chapter 66: The Wedding of the Empress and the Elder (II)
"Xu Guigu, when will the bride and groom arrive? Everyone is a little anxious, we haven't seen this little couple, I have heard that Di Renjie is a well-known precocious young man in Kuizhou, and everyone also wants to open their eyes to see what kind of Tongtian character can enter the door of the Ghost Valley! ”
Some of the people at the banquet were more lively, and they stood up to make a scene. Xu Yang also smiled at him and waved his hand: "The auspicious time has not yet arrived, everyone wait first, let's order the fruit before the meal for everyone to taste and taste." With that, Xu Yang clapped his hands.
The servants, who had been waiting around for a long time, seemed to have received some signal, and they all walked out in line through the small door, and soon returned to the courtyard with many delicate plates.
"Come and come, everyone often has fruits from the Western Regions and South America, which is rare in Datang." Before the wedding started, the bride and groom were still dressing up, and Xu Yang, in order to prevent many guests from being anxious, thought of sending these rare fruits as a dessert before the meal, so that these people felt that the trip was worthwhile.
Sure enough, when they opened the plates, everyone showed strange expressions, because they had never even seen all kinds of fruits on those plates.
"How? Do you know any of these fruits? ”
I saw Fang Xuanling pick up a fiery red spherical fruit in one hand, squinted his eyes and looked at it, and finally scratched his head, "This strange-looking fruit does look strange and tight, and the old man doesn't know what it is." ”
"Haha." Xu Yang laughed, "What Fang Xiang is holding in his hand is the dragon fruit that South America brought back to grow." The appearance is like fire. There are dragon scales. Breaking the shell, it can be seen that the white flesh and sunspots in it are a rare fruit of cooling and relieving the heat, this thing is extremely difficult to survive in my Datang, even if it is planted in the greenhouse of the palace, the amount produced is very small. Xu Yang explained triumphantly.
As soon as Xu Yang said this, everyone was amazed, and they all went up and down, and all the dragon fruits on the plate were taken away for a while. Xu Yang is also thoughtful, and has already ordered someone to prepare a just right amount of fruit to ensure that everyone can eat one.
Peeling off the skin, the juice-filled white flesh of the dragon fruit was exposed in front of everyone, and it was really cool when you took a bite, the entrance was extended, and the black seeds like sesame seeds were chewed in the mouth The taste was very delicious, so that everyone was very happy to eat, perhaps it was the psychological effect of what Xu Yang said before, when everyone was eating this fruit. They all thought it was very delicious and praised it one after another. There are even those who compose poems on the spot.
The next fruits to taste are even more varied, such as avocados from Australia, crystal grapes from the Western Regions, and durian with a strange taste, all of which let everyone have a good look at the world.
In fact, there is no need for what happened later, everyone already felt that it was worth the trip.
After tasting the fruit, while everyone was still amazed, they heard someone outside the courtyard shouting: "The bride and groom are here!" ”
Under the support of the maidservants and servants, Xiao Wu and Xiao Di walked in from outside the courtyard, only to see Xiao Di wearing a Han-style ancient clothes, but how to look at him makes the whole person look upright, the style of the clothes is very characteristic of the Guigu, and there are two small seal fonts on the back of the Guigu character print, which makes people shine.
After talking about Xiao Di, it is even more important to talk about Xiao Wu, wearing a red hijab, so that people can't see her face, but judging from her graceful body curve and pace, you can see that the woman is definitely a beauty, the big red dress is just some distance from the ground, and when you walk, the skirt will flutter in the wind, it looks like a budding bone, and the beauty is intoxicating.
At this time, the women at the table where the ladies were sitting were collectively silent for a second, and then suddenly erupted, and all the women were praising how beautiful the long dress Xiao Wu was wearing, and the envy in her tone was unmistakable.
At this moment, Di's father was already sitting on the high platform in front of the stone stairs in the courtyard, looking at such a couple with satisfaction, and in a blink of an eye, his eldest son was about to get married, and Di's father was also very excited at this time. 、
According to the construction of Guiguzi, the future Guigu marriages should not be too extravagant and wasteful, and now the newly built Chang'an City is too happy, and the time for visiting Chang'an is too much, so Xu Yang simplified it, and changed the tour of Chang'an to only a circle of the Suzaku Street on the central axis.
The master of ceremonies of the wedding is a well-known old man in Chang'an, and many model couples in Chang'an are wedding ceremonies presided over by him, so this time Xiao Di and Xiao Wu's wedding, Xu Yang also invited him.
Although this old man looks a little old, his eyes are bright, he does not speak at all, and he knows how to stir up the atmosphere.
At first, I only heard the old man say to the two newlyweds who walked in from the gate of the courtyard: "The bride and groom enter the courtyard!" ”
Xiao Di held Xiao Wu's arm very unnaturally at this time, and walked towards the courtyard, Xu Yang also looked at such a couple with a smile on his face at this time, turned around and sat on the chair next to Di's father and Di's mother, and next to him was Liu Mengli, the eldest young grandmother of Xujiazhuang.
When the couple walked into the courtyard, the old man said aloud: "The newcomer gets up, leads, and enters." The guests in the hall were staring at such a couple with smiles on their faces at the moment, and Xiao Di was flushed.
The old master of ceremonies waited until the couple stood up, and then said, "The bride and groom are in place!" ”
"The bride and groom are incense!"
"Kneel, offer incense!"
"Kneel, prostrate, prostrate, prostrate, prostrate three times!" This whole set of etiquette is like a solemn ceremony, Wu Zhao's eyes under the hijab are a little dazed at this time, and he can feel the warmth next to his arm, this man will stay with him for the rest of his life.
"Grace, get up, give a gift!" At this time, the old man began to instruct the prime minister again, this time the prime minister Di Renjie found was actually Niu Shizan from Nanshan Academy, although Niu Shizan was much older than Di Renjie, but the age gap between the two was not an obstacle to the communication between the two. Rather, it is a sublimation of communication. also contributed to the year-end friendship between the two.
Xiao Wu has no maiden family. Since the Wu family moved the Wu sisters to Xujiazhuang, they have never asked them about their lives, so the wedding ceremony of the first ring of Xiao Wu's family is also simple, and the bull market praise is also a lot less, after all, when the woman's relatives and women can beat the concubine with a stick, when Xu Yang got married, please Wei Chi, and Chu Mo were almost beaten into grandsons. The power of those women is evident.
After the prime minister is also ready, the following is the familiar hall ceremony, facing Xu Yang and Liu Mengli sitting on the high platform, as well as Di's father and Di's mother, the four of them are all sitting upright, watching the children under the stage salute themselves.
"Today, you are here, it is a blessing for the wedding, and it is also the honor of Di Renjie and Wu Zhao'er, now, start three worships, and many relatives and friends can also witness it." The old man turned his head to the many relatives and friends behind him. Everyone nodded their heads to show that they understood.
"Worship heaven and earth!"
"Second worship high hall!"
"Husband and wife worship each other!"
"Send to the cave!" As the old man's last word ended, everyone seemed to hear the slogan of the carnival. The businessmen invited by Xu Yang who were lively and good at laughing and enlivening the atmosphere played a great role at this time, and the whole courtyard immediately turned into a sea of cheers, and a bowl of drunk was carried up by the servants, and everyone picked up the big bowl in their hands, filled it with liquor, and began to celebrate the wedding of the couple.
"Boy, from now on, you will be the head of the family, where can you run." Seeing that Di Renjie was about to run, the sharp-eyed Wei Chi Baolin suddenly dragged him back, picked up a large vat of liquor in one breath, and said in a heroic tone: "From now on, you will be a serious man, how can you not drink!" Come, uncle teach you to drink! After Yu Chi Baolin said, he took a bowl and stuffed it into Di Renjie's hand.
"Uncle Wei Chi, I'...... I don't know how to drink! Di Renjie's voice changed a little, and it seemed that he really didn't know how to drink.
"Hey, don't you drink it now?" As soon as Yu Chi Baolin grabbed Di Renjie, he poured the wine in the bowl into his mouth.
"Congratulations!"
"A hundred years of good together, give birth to a noble son early!"
"Grow old!" …… There was a sound of compliments in the courtyard, and Di's father was also busy entertaining, and the atmosphere of the banquet reached its peak......
When will it arrive? Everyone is a little anxious, we haven't seen this little couple, I have heard that Di Renjie is a well-known precocious young man in Kuizhou, and everyone also wants to open their eyes to see what kind of Tongtian character can enter the door of the Ghost Valley! ”

Xu Yang laughed, "What Fang Xiang is holding in his hand is the dragon fruit brought back from South America to plant, the appearance is like fire, there are dragon scales, and the shell is broken, it can be seen that the white flesh and black seeds in it are rare to cool and relieve the heat, this thing is very difficult to survive in my Tang Dynasty, even if it is planted in the greenhouse of the palace, the amount produced is very small." Xu Yang explained triumphantly.
As soon as Xu Yang said this, everyone was amazed, and they all put their hands up and down, and for a while, all the dragon fruits on the plate were taken away, and Xu Yang was also thoughtful, and he had already ordered someone to prepare the right amount of fruits. Everyone is guaranteed to have one.
Peel off the skin. The juicy white flesh of the dragon fruit was revealed. A bite down is really very cool, the entrance is extended, the black sesame seeds in the mouth chewing taste is very delicious, so that everyone is happy to eat, perhaps it is the psychological effect of Xu Yang's previous words, everyone when eating this fruit, they all feel very delicious, and they have praised it.

There are also two small seal fonts on the back, which are eye-catching.
