Chapter 340: Marriage
At the gate of the city, a mighty team escorted a prisoner car, the people in the prisoner car had messy hair and blocked their faces, and they were embarrassed, it should be the Huai'an Governor's Guard, and there was a coffin behind it, presumably the body of Xue Chengxiang, and there was a group of prisoners behind the coffin, which should be all the Governor's Guard's cronies.
The escort team was murderous, and at first glance, it was a soldier who came down from the battlefield, which was definitely not comparable to these yamen guards.
There were a lot of onlookers gathered in the surrounding distance, and they all talked about it, this Huai'an City was about to change again, but with General Xue Xiao here, most of them were very relieved.
Young Master Xue and General Xue were wearing linen in front of the team, and were talking to Cheng Xin, who was wearing plain clothes, Cheng Xi and Xu Sanlang walked over quickly, and Cheng Xi said apologetically, "We're late." ”
Young Master Xue responded, "It's okay, now that we say goodbye, I don't know when we will see each other, I hope we will keep our promises to each other." ”
In the last sentence, Young Master Xue said it to Xu Sanlang, and Xu Sanlang replied briefly, "Of course." ”
Young Master Xue hugged his fists and said, "It's not too early, it's time for me to set off, take care, uncle, you don't have to send it." ”
Everyone returned the salute and said to each other to take care, and General Xue Xiao instructed again, "If there is any news in Jingcheng, write to inform me in time, the two people left with you are my cronies, and if there is any important news, let them inform me." ”
Xue Dashao hugged his fists and responded, "Thank you, uncle." ”
General Xue waved his hand, "Let's go, take care all the way." ”
Seeing that Young Master Xue led the mighty team out of the city and gradually moved away, General Xue Xiao opened his mouth and said to Cheng Xi and them on the side, "I am going back to the station soon, and the rest of the things will be hard for you, I will come back to see when I have time, Xin'er, leave those few people who are familiar with Huai'an City, if there is anything to do, just tell them." ”
Cheng Xin responded, "Thank you, uncle." ”
General Xue waved his hand, "Be polite to Uncle Xiao, you all go back, I'm going to leave too." ”
After speaking, he took the horse on the side, turned over, said goodbye, and left in a hurry with a few people to beat the horse.
A few of them walked back at this time, and the people around looked at them, all of them were talking about it, guessing their identities, but it had something to do with General Xue Xiao, no matter what their identity was, it was all incomprehensible, and they all thought in their hearts, these people must not be offended.
In the next few days, Cheng Xi and the others were very busy, all of them were busy with Cheng Xin and Ah Yi's family affairs, just a few days, such and such preparations Zhang Luo, basically busy with their feet not touching the ground.
Fortunately, there are many of them, and those in Huai'an City, knowing the relationship between Cheng Xin and General Xue Xiao, the people who came up to curry favor took the initiative to help, and after four or five days of busyness, they were finally well prepared.
Regarding her sister Cheng Xin's dowry, Cheng Xi really didn't understand it, and Cheng Xin, the eldest girl, was even more unclear, but fortunately, Xiaomei moved to the rescuers and found the grandmother of Tianxianglou to help, and the difficulty was solved.
Knowing that Cheng Xin was going to get married, and there was no older woman at home to help Zhang Luo, the old bustard simply stayed and helped for a few days.
On the first night of the auspicious day, Cheng Xi stayed with Cheng Xin, and there were still a lot of things to do the next morning, if she went back to the restaurant, she was afraid that it would be too late to come back in the morning.
Xu Sanlang, who came to pick up Cheng Xi, heard that Cheng Xi was going to stay here, so he also wanted to stay in the house here, but he was driven back to the restaurant by Cheng Xi, and there were still a lot of things waiting for him Zhang Luo, but he couldn't let him stay here.
There are a lot of customs of getting married, Cheng Xi himself has experienced it twice, the first time was destroyed by Xu Wenyu, and he went to the capital to experience it again, but he has experience, and he is quite decent for his sister Zhang Luo.
When Cheng Xi got married, she was troublesome in everything, but when she got to her sister, she didn't want to miss it, and persuaded Cheng Xin seriously, saying that it was only once in her life that she got married, but she must not be sloppy.
Early this morning, General Xue Xiao rushed back from the border station early, of course, there were many of General Xue Xiao's subordinates, they heard that General Xue Xiao's niece was going to marry in Huai'an City, or General Xue Xiao personally gave them a marriage, so they all made a noise to come to drink wine.
General Xue Xiao thought that they had been stationed at the border for many years, and it was rare for them to have happy events, so they also followed them to Huai'an City.
In addition, in this Huai'an City, there are many people who have heard that General Xue Xiao's niece is married, and they want to curry favor, and they also came to the door with gifts.
Xu Sanlang and the others didn't expect that it would be such a grand scene, and the banquet they prepared was afraid that it would not be enough at all, so they filmed Chen Wei out and moved the chef's dishes from several large restaurants in Huai'an City.
I heard that Zui Qingfeng was going to reopen, and those restaurants were waiting to see the jokes, and in the blink of an eye, it became a major restaurant competing with each other, even those restaurants that didn't send anyone to invite them, they actually sent their own cooks to send food over.
Originally, I was worried that there would not be enough seats, but it was easily solved.
Xu Sanlang and Ah Wu were arranged to greet the guests at the door, but they found that he didn't know most of the people who came to the door, and it was impossible to drive them away even if they came to the door, so they let people in with a few polite words to each other.
Cheng Xi and General Xue Xiao both want to run at both ends, after arranging for Cheng Xin to get on the sedan chair, Cheng Xi took the first step to ride General Xue Xiao over to the restaurant, and saw Xu Sanlang and Ah Wu standing at the door to greet the guests with a straight face like two statues, Cheng Xi couldn't help but sigh, "It's really embarrassing for them." ”
General Xue on the side heard Cheng Xi's sigh, so he said, "You are good at everything, but you are a little wooden, and it is really boring." ”
Cheng Xi listened to General Xue's evaluation, and then remembered that when Xu Sanlang was in private with him, he couldn't help but slander in his heart, where is this person wooden, obviously he is a black belly who pretends to be wooden.
Xu Sanlang, who was far away, saw Cheng Xi sitting on horseback, Xu Sanlang frowned slightly and greeted Ah Wu on the side, asking him to greet the guests, and he walked quickly towards Cheng Xi.
waited until Xu Sanlang personally hugged Cheng Xi off the horse, and then greeted General Xue Xiao with a fist, and after greeting him, he began to reprimand Cheng Xi, "It's not that there is a carriage, why is it riding a horse alone?" It's just that I don't have a long memory, what should I do if I fall. ”
Cheng Xi stuck out his tongue and responded, "Isn't this in a hurry?" ”
Xu Sanlang reached out and pinched Cheng Xi's nose, threatening, "There will be another time, see how I clean you up." ”
On the side, General Xue Xiao watched the interaction between the two, and then looked at Xu Sanlang, who showed a gentle smile, and wanted to retract what he had just said.
Because there were still a bunch of things, Xu Sanlang reprimanded Cheng Xi a few words, and then didn't pursue it anymore, beckoned General Xue Xiao into the house, and then began to greet the welcoming team.
When Cheng Xi entered the restaurant, he was also startled when he saw that the restaurant was full of friends, and couldn't help muttering, "Why are there so many people?" ”
General Xue on the side glanced at it and replied, "Most of them are people who tend to be inflammatory, but I was negligent and let this situation develop." ”
Cheng Xi responded with a smile, "It's good, it's lively, and you can also receive a bunch of gifts, since you are here to climb the relationship, presumably the gift will not be less, hehe, my sister has another dowry." ”
The corners of General Xue's eyes twitched, but he didn't speak.
When many people saw General Xue Xiao coming in, they all stood up and saluted, greeting General Xue, just hoping to get in touch with General Xue or be familiar in front of General Xue.
General Xue frowned slightly, but thinking that today was Xin'er's big day, he still couldn't help but drive people out without having a seizure.
Later, when he wanted to climb the relationship, he saw that the people before him were deflated, but he didn't get a response from General Xue Xiao, and he also made General Xue Xiao's face cold, so he dispelled this idea.
When General Xue Xiao sat down on the first place arranged, the sound of firecrackers sounded outside, and the welcoming team also arrived, and General Xue's originally tense expression finally showed signs of loosening.
Ah Yi is an orphan and has no elders, and Cheng Xin has not recognized the Cheng family now, except for his mother who is far away in the Xia Kingdom, there is only General Xue Xiao's uncle, so the link of the second worship of the high hall is to worship General Xue, which is also the reason why General Xue Xiao rushed over with Cheng Xi in a hurry.
Although the time was in a hurry, all the marriage customs were very well prepared, and after some cumbersome procedures, the bride Cheng Xin was sent to the cave room, but the groom still had to accompany the guests outside.
Just looking at the guests in this restaurant, Ah Yi began to worry, so many people who don't know each other, do you want a table of toasts? Then this circle is saluted, he has to lie down.
Although he also likes to drink, he doesn't want to get drunk today, and there is still the bride he thinks about waiting for him in the new house.
General Xue Xiao saw his embarrassment, and besides, this situation in the restaurant was also because of his relationship, so he rarely took the initiative to greet Ah Yi and began to take him to toast, of course, only the people he knew who he felt should be respected, such as those subordinates he brought, and people who really had some friendship with him in Huai'an City.
As for the others who didn't know each other, they didn't give face at all, and they simply ignored them.
Originally, Cheng Xi sat at a table with Xu Sanlang Awu and others eating, looking at this situation, thinking that it was a happy day, and in the future, this drunken breeze would be opened, and these people should not be offended.
