Chapter 279: Entering the Burden
Beauty Fierce 279_Chapter 279 Entering the Rich from Bayi Chinese Net (.) On the twelfth day of the lunar month, the sky was sunny for several days, and suddenly it rained again, and they were all like ruffles, and when they looked up, they saw that between the pavilions and houses, Qionghua was dancing.
It's just that today's snow can't hide the lively atmosphere on Ping'an Street.
Since three days ago, the shop with the best silk trade on this street, called Yunshang Pavilion, has closed its doors, and red lanterns and red silk have been hung at the door. Early this morning, a long firecracker was set off, and the crackling sound lasted for half a cup of tea, almost waking up the entire street.
When the neighbors on the street all ran out to see the excitement, there was already a banquet in the Mo family, and there were more than a dozen tables in the front yard and backyard.
Knowing that the Zhu family is weak and mentally weak, the Wen family is thoughtful in everything, responsible for going out to greet the guests at the door, responsible for arranging seats for the guests, responsible for water, wine, melons and fruits, responsible for cups and utensils, and responsible for serving food in the kitchen, etc., whether it is a maid or a servant, each has a stall of work to take care of, busy but not chaotic.
So in the morning, because most of the people who came over were relatives of the clan and neighbors on the street, with the greeting of the Wen family and the help of the Zhu family, the wedding banquet was really lively and decent. But I didn't want to, just as the morning was about to pass, and when the banquet reached the second round, there were more and more people who came to congratulate them.
The director and steward of the Yongzhou Weaving and Dyeing Bureau and the buyers below, more than a dozen merchants from Yongzhou Silk Bank, major merchants who come and go on weekdays, several grandmothers and wives of the Xie family, the young master and wife of the Ran family, in addition, there are more than a dozen grassland men brought by Bayan who are specially for Ah Sheng to sit in, plus the maids and servants who are running back and forth, and there are also flowing congratulatory gifts to follow. So, this small mansion, suddenly. There is a feeling of crowding that I can't get my feet in.
"Second grandmother, wife, the dishes in the kitchen are almost out of service. There are so many guests that a few chefs are too busy! ”
"Second grandma. Madam, the seat, the seat can't sit down, there are already guests standing on the side! ”
"Second grandmother, wife, there is no place to arrange the carriages of the guests outside, they are all blocked!"
"Second grandma. Mrs......"
"Alright, alright!" Wen waved his hand, stood up anxiously and asked, "I have invited three chefs, specially prepared one hundred and twenty seats, and the carriage has also arranged twenty or thirty seats, how can I still ......?"
Zhu Shi was also a little panicked: "What can I do, why are so many people here, obviously I didn't send so many wedding cards!" ”
Mrs. Mo on the side hurriedly said: "You first count those useless, this kind of happy day, how can there be a reason to drive the guests out, hurry up and think about how to arrange it!" ”
Wen asked the servant woman beside him a few words, and then said, "Hurry up, go to the restaurant opposite." There are ready-made drinks and dishes to be brought over first, and then a few tables of banquets will be booked in the hall on the first floor of the restaurant. ”
The servant woman next to her said, "Second grandma, I went to ask just now, and it seems that someone has already taken care of it!" ”
"What!" Wen was taken aback, and then said, "Then hurry up, hurry up and ask someone else." ”
"Second aunt, you don't need to ask elsewhere, the restaurant opposite is something I asked someone to charter." After the servant woman answered, she was about to go out, but at this moment, Ah Sheng, who was dressed in a wedding dress, walked in from outside and said with a smile.
Suddenly, seeing that the groom official came over, Wen's and Zhu's and Mrs. Mo were all stunned for a moment, and then Wen's said, "When are you going to wrap it?" ”
"It was morning, and I saw that there seemed to be more and more guests, so I asked Bayan to go to the opposite side first to set a seat." Ah Sheng glanced out as he spoke, and then said, "There are too many guests now, I have to invite the male guests to the restaurant to sit down, and the guests at home will invite the second aunt and wife to entertain them first, and I will come over to take a look later, and a few of them will stay here to help out." ”
As he spoke, he turned around and walked out, but as soon as he stepped out of the threshold, he turned around again, and Wen was stunned, thinking that there was something else. But he didn't want this to happen, he walked up to Zhu and Old Lady Mo, suddenly bowed deeply, then straightened up and smiled: "Please don't worry, mother and grandma, I will entertain guests." ”
Zhu and Mrs. Mo were a little stunned by the sudden salutation, until Ah Sheng came out of the hall and strode towards the guests under the snowflakes, the tall figure, steady pace, and red wedding dress seemed to have drawn the most colorful stroke in his Mo family in this winter.
Zhu suddenly felt that his eyes were a little hot, and the son he had been looking forward to for most of his life seemed to be sent to her all at once.
Sure enough, there is a man in the family who is different, and this time he stood up, and his heart settled down inexplicably.
After Wen Shi praised a few words on the side, he suddenly remembered that now was not the time to sigh, and there were still a bunch of guests waiting for her to arrange outside, so he greeted Zhu and led the mother-in-law over first. Zhu also stroked his chest, then reluctantly stood up and went out with Old Lady Mo to show his face.
Xie Gexian just got off the carriage, and before he could help Wang Ying get out of the car, he looked not far away, the high-spirited man in red clothes led a group of guests out of the gate of the Mo family.
"Husband?" After Wang Ying leaned out of the carriage, she saw Xie Gexian looking ahead, looking distracted, so she called him softly.
Xie Gexian came back to his senses, turned his face, stretched out his hand to his wife, and smiled faintly.
After Wang Ying got out of the car, she glanced in the direction that Xie Gexian had just looked over, and after recognizing the groom official, she smiled: "Why did the groom official lead the guests to the restaurant?" ”
After Xie Gexian looked at the carriage parked near this street, he walked towards the Mo family with his wife, and said, "Most of the time, there are too many guests, and they can't be arranged, so they go to the restaurant to set a location." ”
Wang Ying looked to both sides, and then carefully observed the guests who came in and out of the Mo family's gate a few times, and sighed: "I didn't expect this rich family affair to be able to do such a beautiful thing, I don't know what kind of woman the Mo Dong family is, I hope I can have regular contact with her in the future." ”
Xie Gexian glanced at her: "You want to be good friends with her?" ”
However, most of the people with some status disdain to interact with merchants, and Yongzhou is relatively thin because of the prosperity of commerce and trade, and there are many wealthy businessmen and wealthy customers. But the nobles in the capital have such a concept that has been deeply rooted in their hearts since childhood. Otherwise, after he returned to the public mansion back then, he would not have been so coldly looked at and spurned by others.
Wang Ying saw her husband looking at her like this, and couldn't help but smile: "I used to be in the capital. I have never seen or even heard of such a woman, but now I have the opportunity to get acquainted. is also a person who is familiar to the husband, and the concubine must hope to be good with him. ”
The two walked to the door of the Mo Mansion as they spoke. So he asked his subordinates to present a congratulatory gift, Gu Jing, who was in charge of registration, raised his eyes, and after seeing that it was Xie Gexian, he hurriedly stood up and greeted him, and then asked the guys on the side to hurry inside to inform Wen. Such a distinguished guest came to the door, but there must be no embarrassment of not being able to arrange a seat.
After Ah Sheng was in charge of sharing part of the guests, Wen's side suddenly relaxed a lot. As soon as Xie Gexian and Wang Ying entered, they immediately came over and led them to the special seats.
It's just that Xie Gexian just took a seat, and he didn't even have time to say a few words of greeting with the person next to him, so Ping An walked up to him and whispered a few words in his ear. Xie Gexian pondered for a while, then stood up and left the table, asking the maid of the Mo family to go to the backyard to invite his wife out.
"Husband, are you feeling unwell again?" Wang Ying had just entered, and was about to go to Zhu's place to have a look, but the maid suddenly went over and said that Xie Gexian asked her to go out, and she panicked and hurriedly walked out of it.
"It's not. It's a temporary matter in the yafu that I need to deal with. Seeing that he was still a little childish, but tried his best to put on a meek and decent wife's worried face, Xie Gexian showed her a soothing smile. Let me tell you, you stay here for a wedding wine first, and I'll pick you up in the afternoon. ”
Wang Ying breathed a sigh of relief: "Since the husband is busy with official business, don't come over to pick up the concubine again, and let the concubine go back to call a car for a while." ”
Xie Gexian didn't say anything more, and after letting her in, he turned around and went out. Just before getting into the carriage, he couldn't help but glance quietly at the front of the street again, then withdrew his gaze, got into the car, lowered the curtain, leaned against the wall of the carriage, and closed his eyes.
In the afternoon, the second round of firecrackers sounded at the door of the Mo house, Ah Sheng prepared early, half an hour in advance, I don't know how many times I ran back and forth, and now I finally waited for this moment, and quickly stood at the door with an excited face.
The sound of firecrackers continued, and the lively suona sound also followed from far and near, under the snowflakes, in the fog of smoke, the red sedan chair finally slowly entered everyone's sight, and the crowd of onlookers, as well as the group of men led by Bayan were excited.
Ah Sheng only felt that his heartbeat was getting faster and faster, fluttering and shaking the eardrums on both sides of him, and the sound was so loud that he couldn't even cover the sound of suona and firecrackers. Bayan stood beside him, glanced at him, and said, "Can you stand it?" Just got so much wine! ”
"I must be able to withstand it!" Ah Sheng nodded heavily, his eyes staring straight at the sedan chair that was getting closer and closer.
As soon as the sound of firecrackers stopped, the sedan chair was just put down, and the bride who followed alongside said with a smile: "Please let the bride out of the sedan chair!" ”
The red beans who came with the sedan chair immediately stepped forward to help lift the red curtain.
The bride continued: "Please enter the door with the bride on your back!" ”
This is one of the most special in the ceremony, on the day of marriage, in front of everyone to carry his wife into the door, which means that he will be pressed for a lifetime.
When the figure in a big red dress came out of the sedan chair, Ah Sheng stepped forward, but he didn't know if he was too nervous, or the wine just now rushed up, and he was too excited.
The onlookers were a little stupid all of a sudden, and Xi Niang was also stunned.
And in this flash, the groom has been carrying the bride and I don't know where to go, the red bean came back to his senses, and quickly called the bride, and the bride hurriedly chased in, and the big guy also came back to his senses, and he also rushed in.
As a result, everyone was a little stupid again, and the bride felt that her brain was about to explode, so she hurriedly picked up her skirt and waved a handkerchief to catch up: "Ambiguous, the groom official, the groom official, haven't worshiped heaven and earth yet, worship heaven and earth here, this side ......"
Ah Sheng was stunned, turned his head, and Xi Niang explained with a stiff face: "Yes, you have to worship heaven and earth before you can enter the cave room!" (To be continued)
