Chapter 511: Wedding Turmoil (1)
In this era of comprehensive revival of Chinese culture, although the wedding process of the wealthy families in the imperial capital has also incorporated many new elements that are in line with the times, it still generally follows the ancient Chinese rites. The three books and the six rites are all indispensable!
The three books refer to the letter of appointment, the letter of ceremony, and the letter of welcome, and the six gifts refer to the acceptance, the name, the naji, the recruitment, the invitation, and the welcome. There are many detailed processes, which are extremely cumbersome to handle!
Since this is the marriage of the descendants of the two thousand-year-old wealthy families of the An family and the Zhao family, and An Yulong is still the number one popular candidate to compete for the position of the head of the family in the future, the two high-level executives attach great importance to this marriage, so this wedding is held very grandly!
In fact, since the two high-level executives officially agreed on the marriage contract half a year ago, this marriage has begun to be prepared! A series of processes went down, and by the time the day of the big gift, it was already the end of August!
Early in the morning, Xiao Junling was taken to the family mansion by the envoy of the An family, and many family children, relatives and friends had already arrived.
The guard of honor has already been prepared, and 12 brand-new large-scale hovering cars have been carefully decorated by professional designers, which looks precious and elegant, gorgeous and magnificent! They will be used to go to the Zhao family's mansion to greet the bride.
Xiao Junling, as the best man, has received extraordinary courtesy since he arrived, not only An Yulong's parents came out to entertain him personally, but even the old man of the An family took the time to meet him and invited him to the banquet at the right time.
A large number of servants and maids have changed into new clothes, and they are busy going back and forth. Originally, Xiao Junling also had a lot of errands, but it was impossible for An Fu to really call him as a servant. Therefore, a special team of servants was sent to listen to his orders. They do most of the work. He himself just accompanied the groom, An Yulong, to entertain the guests.
ββ¦β¦ Brother An, how do you feel? Dealing with the waves of relatives and friends in front of him, as if he would never be able to entertain all kinds of relatives, friends, dignitaries, and protΓ©gΓ©s, Xiao Junling asked in a hurry.
"Don't mention it! I didn't even get a chance to sleep last night, this ...... It's even more tiring than going to the battlefield! An Yulong, who was dressed in a bright red dress and laughed so much that he almost began to cramp, replied depressedly.
Xiao Junling smiled and said half-truthfully: "This is just the beginning, you can't stand it?" Don't forget to wait for the Zhao family to have a large number of guests to deal with! Then, the salute, the toast, the worship...... There is also a hole in the house or something, and you can't run away. You need to be prepared! I won't help you then! β
An Yulong's face turned a little blue, he looked around, pulled his arm without a trace, and whispered: "Brother Xiao, this is your fault!" What is the friendship between the two of us? You're not going to watch me and your sister suffer this living sin, are you? β
"Help us find a way, as long as we get through this level safely, we will remember your favor!"
"Rub, what can I do? It's not like I'm in charge of such a big scene! Xiao Junling hurriedly cleared himself.
An Yulong raised his eyebrows, revealing a malicious smile: "You can't help it?" That's fine! You're going to get married one day anyway, right? Until then. Your sister and I will 'earn' all the hardships we have experienced today! Hum! β
"You sinister guy......" Xiao Junling's face changed slightly, he knew that these two people could do what they said. Especially the unscrupulous character of the princess of the Zhao family, she may not have to come up with some way to toss herself when the time comes!
"Alright! I can try, but it's not guaranteed! In order not to be "pulled into the list" by these two people in the future, Xiao Junling had to compromise.
"Whether it's useful or not, let's hear it first!" As if he had caught a life-saving straw, An Yulong hurriedly asked.
"I'm going to talk to your old man about further cooperation, I originally wanted to wait a few days, in order to help you, why don't we hold it today?" Xiao Junling said,
"Of course, I won't bypass you to talk to the family higher-ups, so you must be present when you sign the contract! This will distract the old men! The only problem is that it will disturb your cave candle night! So it's not very good......"
"What does it matter?" An Yulong waved his hand and said happily:
"That's it! Wait for me to pick a chance to mention it to the old man, he will be very happy! β
"That's fine, as long as you're okay!" Xiao Junling breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that the time was almost up, the wedding master of ceremonies urged the groom to board the car, leading the guard of honor, the limousine, the drum music, the guests, the servants and maids, and a large number of guards, etc., more than 1,000 flying cars stretched for nearly ten kilometers! It can be described as extraordinary!
Such a grand event naturally attracted reporters from all walks of life, and hundreds of interview cars followed all the way, and when the convoy arrived at the Zhao family's mansion, the head of the Zhao family greeted him with a group of high-level family members with joyful faces.
According to the ancient etiquette, the two sides had a Q&A dialogue, and the master of ceremonies announced the completion of the ceremony, and the firecrackers roared in front of the house gate, and the drums were noisy. Reporters also recorded this commemorative scene into the light brain and broadcast it to the emperor and abroad in real time.
The wedding car was guided into the backyard of the mansion and parked directly in front of the boudoir of the princess of the Zhao family, and then Xiao Junling accompanied An Yulong to meet the bride. When he entered the door, he was inevitably found by the maids around Zhao Ziyan for all kinds of reasons, and he "blackmailed" a large amount of money before he stopped.
After a while, the dressed princess of the Zhao family finally stepped out of the inner room surrounded by a group of personal maids, and because she was covered with a red hijab, no one could see her current appearance.
Beside her, a girl with handsome eyebrows and eyes, a mouth and a nose, and beautiful snow skin stared at Xiao Junling curiously, as if she wanted to say hello, but she was a little hesitant.
Xiao Junling knew that this should be the bridesmaid of the princess of the Zhao family, but she didn't know her before, so she didn't have any interest in talking, so she just nodded politely.
After the salute, An Yulong led his bride to board the wedding car, and the girl and Xiao Junling followed. As groomsmen and bridesmaids, you are also eligible to ride in the same car with them.
The wedding convoy departed again. And it's a lot bigger than when I came! An family's various gifts filled a full 150 heavy transport vehicles. And the Zhao family returned the gift more. It took a full 200 transport speeders to load! It can be seen that the extraordinary style of the family!
After the flying car lifted off, Xiao Junling looked at the couple sitting on the main seat in the center, and before he could think of what to say, he saw the bride tear off the big red hijab on her head.
The two personal maids were startled and hurriedly said, "The eldest lady can't ......"
"That's it! Don't tell me about those useless things! Zhao Ziyan waved his hand impatiently and said:
"You all go outside and wait, we have something to talk about! Come in when you get off the bus! β
The two maids had no choice but to retreat to the outside compartment with the bridesmaid. Xiao Junling wanted to follow suit. was dragged by Zhao Ziyan.
An Yulong got up and locked the compartment door, and turned on the magnetic field shielding function, and then he was relieved.
"Sister, which one are you playing?" Xiao Junling looked at the princess of the Zhao family, who was dressed in a phoenix crown, jewels, and glamorous, and asked in surprise.
Zhao Ziyan snorted and said angrily: "What else can it be?" Sister, in order to cope with this fateful wedding, I have been tossing and turning from last night to now, and I have done my makeup several times, and my face is about to be broken by those old women! I knew that Lu Dao was going to suffer this crime, so I would have just eloped with this bastard! β
Xiao Junling touched his nose. Didn't say anything, as the future head of the house. Is it idle to have a major marriage event? I'm afraid that even if it is elopement, this wedding will definitely be rescheduled in the future!
An Yulong smiled: "Brother Xiao, I have already told your sister about the next step of cooperation!" I don't know what specific agreement you have, can you give us a little bit more insight now? In addition, we have some things to discuss with you. β
He thought about it, took out a light brain chip, handed it to Zhao Ziyan and said, "Let's talk about this later, um!" This is my wedding gift for both of you! β
"What's the good thing?" She looked overjoyed, and quickly took it and embedded it in the light brain on Hao's wrist, and then saw a series of mysterious formula data appear on it.
"This is ......" An Yulong looked at it, and his expression changed suddenly.
"An improved A-grade energy spar smelting and processing technique," Xiao Junling explained.
"Compared with the current production technology of the same type in the Chinese Empire, its finished product yield is higher, and the production cycle and processing cost have been improved to a considerable extent. The process can also be streamlined to a certain extent! It should be a lot of help to your family! β
An Yulong, who was an expert, quickly assessed the great value of this technique! Since An Jia controls and operates nearly 30% of the energy spar mining and refining of the Chinese Empire, the research and technical reserves in this area are second to none in China! Except for the Imperial Academy of Sciences, there are few who can compare with his family in this field!
To put it simply, if Anjia's energy spar production base uses this new technology on a large scale, it can save at least tens of billions of energy points in production costs every year! And it can also help Anjia's products to be more competitive, so as to expand its market share! The resulting long-term effects are definitely beneficial to settle down!
This is a simplified version of the technique that Xiao Junling took out from the ancient base of the Biluo Galaxy, which can produce A3 and A4 grade energy crystals. As for the more advanced techniques, it is obviously not the time to come up with them yet.
ββ¦β¦ Don't ask me where I got it! Xiao Junling said the most,
"You've helped me before, so I'll only give it to you! I didn't even tell the Zhou family, so what to do, you know! β
An Yulong's expression became serious, and he solemnly promised: "Brother Xiao, just rest assured, we will definitely keep this matter secret for you!" And An Jia will also be your staunchest ally! β
Zhao Ziyan said with a smile: "If there is a new cooperation project in the future, remember to give priority to us!" Sister will never let you down! β
The An family has recently been deliberating on the establishment of a successor to the future head of the family, and various battles within the top management are very fierce, and although An Yulong has a greater chance of winning, he does not dare to guarantee that there will be no variables.
But now, as long as this technique is taken out through An Yulong's hands, the future master of the An family will basically have no more suspense! It can be seen how heavy Xiao Junling's congratulatory gift is.
"Alright! Now let's talk about you! Zhao Ziyan said again,
"As for your cousin, I think it's time for you to take decisive action! If you don't want to be calculated by that old guy Li Jinyin! (To be continued......)
