Chapter 150: Six Rites
Luo Hui'an knew that now he and Tong Chuxue were in the county seat most of the time, but it still took some time for these etiquettes to walk, and it was inevitable to run at both ends.
It's just that he is a little tired, and besides, when he is in Fu Runian, his husband will also urge him to speed up the progress.
"Chuxue, if you have a lot of things to do in the restaurant, you can go back, and I can stay and finish the etiquette." Luo returned to Andao.
Tong Chuxue understood that Luo Hui'an was thinking about her, but she went to the county seat alone, leaving Luo Hui'an alone to deal with these things, and she always felt sorry for Luo Hui'an.
"Can't you go fast with these etiquette?" Tong Chuxue asked tentatively, if it could be over in a few days, she would stay a few more days.
"It'sβit should work." Luo Hui'an can't say for sure, according to the normal process, the man pays attention to three books and six ceremonies, and it will take a few months to complete the same, Luo Hui'an silently calculated, if it is according to Fu Runian's words, when the etiquette is over, I am afraid it will be winter. It's cold, it's really inconvenient.
"Well, I'll go back and talk to my father about it." Luo returned to Andao.
He didn't want to spend too much time on it.
Tong Chuxue can see this, "We are all ordinary people, and what you said may not be appropriate to be placed in a high-ranking household, but for us, it can be simplified." β
She has always felt that these things are made for others to see, and if the two of them can really live a good life, these false etiquette actually have little effect.
Luo Hui'an did discuss with Luo Changhua as soon as he went back, Luo Changhua looked at it better than Luo Hui'an, and said, "If you want me to say that it's so troublesome, bring the dowry, the sister of the Xu family agreed, how could I be so troublesome when I married your mother back then." β
Luo Changhua also "disciplined" Luo Hui'an as he spoke, saying that he was stupid when he read, and such a simple thing was complicated.
Luo Hui'an touched his nose and didn't speak, obviously Fu Runian said that he would only show respect for the girl's family after he had to finish the ceremony.
However, since Luo Changhua had no opinion, Luo Hui'an decided to prepare things as soon as possible, and went to Tong Chuxue's house to hire him the day after tomorrow.
The reason why it was put on the day after tomorrow is mainly because there are two processes before the dowry, asking for names and Najib, but these are all going through the motions, and the matchmaker will be asked to go again tomorrow.
Tong Chuxue also didn't expect that the matchmaker came to the door again on the second day.
In fact, not to mention Tong Chuxue, even the matchmaker herself didn't expect that she wouldn't let her go after she was busy with Tong Chuxue's business, and the reason for this was that she would have to work for her again tomorrow.
She had never heard of a family marrying a relative and doing such a rush of etiquette.
But Luo Hui'an gave the silver in place, and the matchmaker took the silver and shut up, happily promising that he would get things done.
The matchmaker invited by Luo Hui'an is experienced, and once he went to Tong Chuxue's house, he was done.
Seeing that the etiquette was more than halfway completed, Luo Hui'an happily sorted out the dowry, and called Luo Huiqing and Luo Huifeng to explain carefully.
These two little guys were not surprised at all when they heard about Luo Hui'an and Tong Chuxue, they had gone through so much before they had followed behind, and if the eldest brother married someone else at this time, the two little guys would have to make trouble.
Now Luo Hui'an's home is adjacent to Tong Chuxue's home, and this dowry is equivalent to going out of the door with the front foot, and falling to the ground with the back foot.
This is really not the effect Luo Hui'an wanted to achieve, he thought about it and went to the neighboring village to invite a band to come over, and the next morning he used an ox cart to pull the dowry around Qingshan Village for a whole circle.
It's good now, there is no one in the entire Qingshan Village who doesn't know that Luo Hui'an is going to Tong Chuxue's appointment.
Although it was expected, I couldn't help but feel a little pantothenic acid in my heart, if it weren't for my own kid not being angry, how could it be Luo Hui'an, a sick seedling, who is marrying Tong Chuxue now.
Tong Chuxue is so young, beautiful and beautiful, there is only one Xu Jinniang in the family, and after getting married, she doesn't have to worry about her supplementing her mother's family, how can such a good marriage not fall on her son. Many people in the village sighed.
Luo Hui'an already knew about some school-age young people in the village coveting Tong Chuxue, but Tong Chuxue has been in the county during this time, and she won't come back if she has nothing to do, and it is really not easy for the people in the village to contact her, so he is a lot more relieved.
As for going around Qingshan Village with a dowry today, he also did it on purpose, he just wanted everyone to know that Tong Chuxue was his future wife.
The team that gave the dowry came down in a circle, and finally settled at the door of Tong Chuxue's house.
At this moment, a lot of villagers had gathered in front of Tong Chuxue's house to watch the excitement, and the dowry that was full of the entire ox cart shook their eyes.
Luo Hui'an was hired this time, and the things he prepared cost about 1,000 taels of silver, from jewelry and utensils to cloth, gold and silver.
The onlookers watched the boxes of dowry gifts carried into Tong Chuxue's house, and couldn't help but sigh that this Luo family really made a lot of money behind Tong Chuxue.
And the most eye-catching of them are Luo Changhua's two eldest brothers, when Luo Hui'an wanted to follow Tong Chuxue, the other two houses of the Luo family tried their best to oppose it, who knew that now Luo Changhua is making a lot of money.
They didn't know how much money Luo Changhua had, but these things added up, how could they have a hundred taels of silver.
The two brothers have never seen the world, and they stubbornly regard a thousand taels as a hundred taels, but for them, one hundred taels is already an unimaginable sky-high price.
In addition to the dowry, Luo Hui'an also prepared the bride price.
According to the custom of Qingshan Village, the bride price is to be taken out in front of the big guys.
The melon-eating crowd outside the door stretched their necks to look in, wanting to see how much money Luo Hui'an had brought.
I saw Luo Hui'an take out a red cloth wrapped thing from his arms and open it in front of Xu Jinniang.
Two impressive gold bars.
Now, the villagers outside the door are frying.
"Obediently, I didn't look dazzled, did I, this is gold?"
"It's not just gold, two gold bars, how much is it worth!"
"The Locke family is so rich now!"
Xu Jinniang looked at the two gold bars in front of her and was also a little stunned, and subconsciously prepared to resign, but fortunately, Luo Hui'an reacted quickly and stopped Xu Jinniang's unspoken words, "Auntie, do you want to test?" β
Xu Jinniang came back to her senses in an instant, fortunately she didn't talk nonsense, if she said her resignation in front of so many people in the village, how could Luo Hui'an see people.
"No, you grew up as an aunt." Xu Jinniang said with a smile.
Compared with the harmony inside the door, the faces of the people outside the door are wonderful, some regret not giving their daughter to Luo Hui'an, some regret not teaching their son to chase Tong Chuxue, and some people specifically mock the two brothers of the Luo family.
The little brother is so good, but the Luo family drove people out of the door at the beginning, but now it's okay, and they can't get a piece of the pie, it's really a blood loss.
The two brothers of the Locke family couldn't stay any longer, so they turned around and left with a cold snort.
Tong Chuxue inside the door was lying in front of the window looking at the situation outside, she originally wanted to go out, but Xu Jinniang said that she was an unmarried girl and should not show her face.
Tong Chuxue was speechless, she had not shown up a lot before.
However, she still chose to be obedient and obediently stayed in the house.
It was lively outside for a while, and finally stopped.
As soon as Xu Jinniang came in, she saw Tong Chuxue sitting sullenly on the chair and asked, "Today is a good day for you to get married, why are you not happy at all." β
