Chapter 173: Marriage
In the winter, the cold faded slightly, and a group of men in the private school ran out and used the materials sent by Qi You Zhixing early to build a few house foundations.
Half a month was busy from morning to night, non-stop, and at the end of February, a group of people stopped their work early, all of them cleaned up their own.
Sharp-eyed people have long seen a few homeless people living in private schools go to a tea house, come out with a set of tea sets, and go back cautiously, for fear of bumping into them.
The concierge who arrived early in the private school asked casually when he saw that he had finished work so early today, and the group of men replied happily: "Tomorrow the two adults will get married!" We're going to have a good time! Hold up the scene for adults! ”
The porter felt strange: "You can do it once a year in the town, and you put down half a month's work to make up for this lively trip?" ”
Several men retorted with a smile: "Can an adult's family affair be an ordinary family affair!" It's just a big deal, and we're going to stop today! ”
So the 20s washed off their bodies on this day, put the tea set on the table and went to bed early, even thinking about the next day's family affairs in their dreams.
Although the atmosphere of the New Year in the town has dissipated, the liveliness is no less than that of the New Year, and there are often people who look in front of the shop, what arrangement, the melons and fruits bought, as long as you can see it, you have to talk to other people.
Chun Hui also sent a sedan chair to Guo's mansion a long time ago, and the dowry was also carried to Guo's house and sealed with a red lock.
In the past two months, she and Guo Ruyi have met for the first time, and when they meet again, it is this marriage day, and both of them have some emotion in their hearts.
That small fan diagram of that day led to today's fate.
Guo Ruyi smiled and pulled people over: "Sister Yue, I am used to calling your sister, and I will not change it in the future!" ”
Mrs. Guo has already mentioned that although the two got married on the same day, according to the etiquette, she must regard Chungui as her sister, whether it is age or the mind of knowing and doing, Chungui is respected by the family.
Since she married Zhixing, she threw away her identity as a young lady, and Chungui is a relative on the surface, and she is not the girl who does not know how to be polite, a family, so that she can naturally live a better life.
There is no need for Mrs. Guo to say these words, and Guo Ruyi naturally understands them.
She has always admired Chungui, and has a family relationship, only more and more respectful.
Chungui also smiled and patted her hands: "It will definitely not change." ”
It's just that Zhixing is willing to call her sister-in-law, she is still a sister-in-law, just a few titles, since the family is closed, you can call it whatever you want.
The two sat down together and talked about the trivial matters of the past two months, and when it came to the house, Chun Hui emphasized it.
"Years ago, I thought about adding some manpower to this house, but I thought that in the future, it will be used by the two of you, and this manpower will still come according to your wishes, and the house will always be empty, so you can bother to find some competent housekeepers or mothers-in-law."
It's not good to ask someone to marry a rich lady, but it's not as good as living at home.
Guo Ruyi also knew from Mrs. Guo that there was such a house, I thought it was two families living together, but I didn't expect that Spring Return would not live?
Chungui smiled: "Leave the third place to enter that place, the two houses will be opened up in the future, and it will only be a few steps to go back and forth, which is very convenient, and when you are willing to eat together, you will eat together, and there is no difference between us living together." ”
Guo Ruyi hurriedly said: "Naturally, I want to eat in one place!" I also pointed to being close to Sister Yue! ”
Chun Gui also knows that she has such thoughts, but no matter how close she is, it is only right that the husband and wife have a place of their own behind closed doors, and trivial matters are easy to discuss.
It's not that it's not close.
She smiled faintly and shook Guo Ruyi's hand: "In the future, we will be a family, and we are naturally the closest." ”
After talking about trivial matters, Guo Ruyi's youngest daughter's mentality, she talked about getting along with Zhixing all the way, and she occasionally came and went when she was in the town, looked at each other a few times, talked in a few places, and then went all the way to Beijing, and her mind was only a few words.
For Chungui and Qi You, the two can be said to have a smooth journey.
The two of them stopped until the maid outside came to urge, and they each rested in the room.
The mattress carefully arranged by the Guo family is soft and comfortable to lie down, and as soon as the spring returns to lie down, a strong sense of sleepiness hits.
In the chaos, remembering that tomorrow would be the day she got married, she couldn't help but bend the corners of her mouth and fall into a deep sleep.
Early the next morning, before Chun Gui woke up, someone shouted at the door, she was getting up and dressing, and Mrs. Guo couldn't wait outside, so she urged again.
"Spring returns, but wake up! This auspicious time can't be mistaken, wait for a while in the sedan chair! You aunts, Ah Zhen and her mother are waiting! ”
Chun Gui hurriedly put on a piece of clothing and put people in first.
"Auntie, why did you come so early?"
Mrs. Guo saw that she looked like she had just woken up, and hurriedly pushed people to the dresser, and four maids went into battle together, one combed her hair, one carried a basin, one helped wring a face towel, and one brought a bowl of jujube porridge.
Mrs. Guo gave an order, and the four of them surrounded Chun Gui and started to move.
"Girl, it's not early, this day of marriage, I have to rush everywhere, jujube porridge pads the stomach, and after a while, Mrs. Wufu will come over with the noodle mother-in-law, and your aunt will also come over, I will go to Ruyi first, this girl is too, and she sleeps soundly!"
After a few commands, she hurried out of the room, and walked to another room without stopping, and in a few moments there were several beats.
Chun Gui wanted to laugh, but his face was covered with a warm handkerchief and wiped carefully.
When I opened my eyes again, Lizheng's daughter-in-law, Aunt Cai, and a few familiar women had already come in, looking at her with a smile.
Behind him was a woman dressed in royal blue brocade, followed by a woman with another basin and cotton thread and a pot of flour.
This is the blessed lady of the noodles.
Spring return and Guo Ruyi yesterday, listened to Mrs. Guo's detailed instructions for half an hour, and the marriage process has been remembered in my heart.
Knowing that after washing her face, Mrs. Fu will have to come to wring her face.
The woman and the mother-in-law looked at Chun Gui with a smile: "I have also seen Mrs. Yue before, but today this complexion is getting better and better, and people are more blessed when they are happy!" ”
When he came in, he began to say auspicious words, and when his daughter-in-law heard it, she was as happy as if she was something, and quickly took out a red envelope and handed it over: "Mrs. Labor!" ”
The lady accepted the red envelope, and then began to pick up the flour, layer by layer to rub it on the spring return noodles, after wiping, pinched one end of the cotton thread, and the other end was also bitten in the mouth, and stepped forward and flicked it again and again.
The first blow made Chungui cry out in pain, and several women immediately held the person down as if they had known it for a long time.
"Girl, bear with me, it looks good on your face!"
There is no way to return to spring, so I can only grit my teeth and endure it.
Mrs. Fu was twisted here, and the mother-in-law with the basin said auspicious words: "Raise a pair of lucky chopsticks, and the nobility will fall from the sky, remove the dirt and seek auspiciousness, and you will be safe for a hundred years." With a clean forehead, you will not be hungry when you marry, you are not afraid of tiredness when you work, and you will be loved for filial piety; Two clean eyes, eliminate disasters and solve problems, husband and wife hold hands, until the white head ......"
Lizheng's daughter-in-law took out the red seal and stuffed it into her mother-in-law's arms.
This action is smooth, and I'm afraid there are several stuffed along the way.
Chun Gui couldn't help but feel a little funny, smiled, and bounced down again, which made her eyebrows jump.
Finally, after the noodles were finished, everyone came up to take a look, and sure enough, the complexion was ruddy and delicate, which was suitable for makeup.
Now it was the turn of the maids left by Mrs. Guo. Dressing and putting on makeup, it's like being in a hurry, a few women are even more, you flick the hairpin, I check the seam corners of the wedding dress, and turn the whole person back from top to bottom.
From time to time outside the house, the steward of the Guo family spoke loudly, and the sound of running back and forth came and went.
On this day, everyone was busy, and only one person was unusually calm.
Calmly put on makeup and changed clothes, calmly covered with the Xipa embroidered by Zhimin's own hands, and was helped out by the lady herself.
happened to meet Guo Ruyi, who came out together, and Lizheng's daughter-in-law also nodded with a smile with Mrs. Guo, and the rest of the women and maids followed behind.
The two girls were covered with hijabs, and they were surrounded by everyone and walked out of the boudoir one after the other, and bumped into the lively scene outside. The congratulatory voices of the people in the courtyard continued, and the daughter-in-law did not know how many red envelopes she hid, and sent them one after another.
The two brides stood together and waited for the auspicious time.
Chun Gui is not unhappy, on the contrary, on this day, like Qi You, she has also thought about it many times in and out of her dreams. In the past, only Qi You could get her mind.
She just felt that such a day was as ordinary as she had been in the past year, and she walked naturally step by step, to this day, and she ushered in the day she was destined to do, rather than asking for everything.
Her life will be with this person to grow old, and her family will stay together, which can be seen and seen at a glance.
This kind of stability made her whole person more calm and calm.
……
At this moment, Qi You and Zhixing on the other side are setting off, pinning the big red silk on their chests and getting on the horse, and the dowry behind the front and kissing is carried by people, and Zhou Han is also like Lizheng's daughter-in-law next to him, and he is about to hand over the red fief one by one, with a smile on his face, which is happier than the two groom officials looking at it.
The door of the house was crowded, and everyone in the town who was empty, whether it was the little people or those who were out of town, all came to the door early to celebrate.
Dozens of villagers from private schools came here before dawn and surrounded themselves at the nearest place.
Zhou Han was naturally the first to send it to these villagers, but before he could deliver it to the first person, he saw an old man in the group in front of him trembling and handing him a box in his hand.
Zhou Han hurriedly wondered: "This is ......"
The old man smiled embarrassedly: "We are short of money, so we have a set of tea sets for the adults, and Lord Zhou will keep it for the adults." ”
As soon as these words fell, Zhou Han's hands trembled, and he almost didn't catch it.
The villagers are still thinking about giving gifts...... It was a tea set.
A set of tea sets is not cheap, and it costs a lot of money to put it together, but it also shows the trouble of this congratulatory gift.
He hurriedly looked at Qi You and Zhixing, who were on the horse.
This group of villagers was at the front, how could the two not really listen.
Glancing at Zhou Han's gaze that he didn't know how to decide, Qi You glanced at this group of villagers with sincere faces, sighed, and said softly: "Then thank you folks." ”
Then he turned back to Zhou Han and said: "The courtesy is still exchanged, and the villagers should be more happy." ”
As soon as he said it, Zhou Han understood, and took out a bunch of red envelopes from his arms, and the familiar homeless people in the front row stuffed several envelopes.
He calculated, a letter cost fifteen yuan, and it was time to make up the price of the tea set if one person stuffed a few letters.
Those villagers looked at the few red envelopes in their hands that were more than others, how could they not know the meaning of the two adults, this happy day, and then subdivide these silver coins It would be too blind, and they had to read Qi You's good deeds in their hearts.
The greeting procession was long, blowing and beating in front, in the middle were two groom officials riding tall horses, with happy faces, and the back head was about ten meters long, just walking towards Guo's house in a mighty way.
