After worshipping heaven and earth, everyone hugged the bride and groom to the plum courtyard, and there were people laying silk all the way, changing it one by one, and making sure that the bride's feet did not touch the ground. As soon as you enter the main room, there are a group of wives and grandmothers who help the bride to go to the kang, which is "sitting in the tent", also known as "sitting in the house". Li and the other two Quanfu wives also sprinkled longan, dates, chestnuts and peanuts on the bride's dress, saying auspicious words.

Shu Ning was just crowded among the ladies before, watching her brother worship heaven and earth from behind the screen, but now that the newcomer has entered the new house, she can finally look through the door openly. It's just that the second sister-in-law kept reminding her in her ear not to step on the threshold, and asked her to avoid those male guests.

Duan Ning was about to lift the bride's hijab, he picked up the weighing rod held by his wife, picked up the red hijab, and revealed a delicate and touching face. I saw Zhenzhen wearing a tin on her head, with four rows of velvet flowers on her head, a hairpin ring, and hairpins were made of bright pearls and jade, lining her beautiful appearance, the more picturesque her eyebrows and eyes. Although the two clumps of fat powder on her cheeks seemed a little ruined, they still did not diminish her beauty.

Everyone in the cave room was amazed, and several relatives said hello to Tong's family, Tong just pursed his lips and coughed lightly, stepped forward and whispered two words in the ear of his son who was a little stunned, Duan Ning immediately woke up, and was a little embarrassed to pick off the two velvet flowers on his newlywed wife's head, looked at the new house, and then put one of them on the top of the big wardrobe next to it, and the other on the surface of the wardrobe in the corner. Jin-jin's face turned even redder and lowered her head. The people around laughed and whispered: "The groom is so smart, now he has both children and daughters." ”

The wives of the women's family shouted and lined up the crowd. Take three bowls of dumplings and say "Eat the dumplings of the descendants", and then hand them to Duanning and Zhenzhen. They exchanged and ate with each other. When Shuning saw her brother take the first bite. He frowned slightly, but still smiled and ate it. I wondered if the dumplings were too unpalatable. asked the second sister-in-law, but the second sister-in-law said: "It is wrapped with chestnuts, peanuts and red dates, and it is naturally not delicious if it is not cooked." Shu Ning suddenly realized that she was a little pitiful of her brother. When had he ever eaten anything like this?

After eating the dumplings, Xiao Liu sent someone to send longevity noodles to Duanning, and the two of them also ate separately, and then they drank a glass of wine. The pair of cups were brought back from Guangdong that year, and they were carved from a whole piece of verdant Burmese jade, and there were dragon and phoenix patterns carved on them. At the moment, the two cups were tied by a red thread, and the wife handed one to Duanning, and the other was handed to Zhenzhen, and each drank half a cup. He exchanged the remaining half a cup. The people inside and outside the new house applauded, and someone invited the guests to the courtyard outside to eat and drink.

Only the bride and groom and the wives and grandmothers who helped in the cave room were now left in the new house, and Tong Shi rubbed the corners of his eyes slightly. urged the family to watch the excitement, the children went out, and by the way, asked his daughter to take care of the things that should be done.

Shuning knew that the next part was the bride's face. It may take a while. After looking at the little couple who were still looking at each other and smiling, they couldn't help but smile to see if the reward purse was ready.

The ceremony continued in the middle of the new house. The wives took off Zhenzhen's tanzi, broke her head, twisted the hairs on her face with five-colored silk threads, separated the mane horns, and then combed the woman's style again, but this time she didn't wear it anymore, just a little bit of pearl and jade velvet flowers. When others were busy, Zhenzhen blushed and lowered her head, and Jiao Duanning kept smiling at her, only thinking that his wife was even better looking now than just now. From time to time, the second sister-in-law of the Li family and other people who knew the bottom of the matter suddenly ran outside to laugh. The person concerned is unaware.

A table of wine was set up outside the new house, and the wives of the relatives were invited to eat and drink with the wives of the relatives, the wives of the relatives and the wives of Quanfu. But everyone had actually eaten some things, so they just dipped in some wine and food. However, the newcomers of Duanning and Zhenzhen had already eaten a bowl of half dumplings and half a bowl of noodles each, and they were full, but they still had to take another big bite of steamed buns, and then followed the guidance of a group of women to eat a lot of "festive" food, and they were almost unable to support it.

The ceremony in the new house was over, and the wives said a few more auspicious words, and told Zhenzhen not to go down for two days, so he said goodbye and returned to the woman's house to exchange for the guests who wanted to eat and drink. At this time, it was already approaching evening, and the second sister-in-law reminded Duan Ning to prepare to go to the front to greet the guests, and he looked at his wife a few more times with some reluctance before leaving.

When he arrived in the courtyard, he met his sister Shuning, and when he learned that he was going to the front to greet the guests, he glanced at Huzi next to him, and Huzi knew how to pull Duan Ning to the side and whispered a few words. Duan Ning laughed and followed him to the next room.

It turned out that after Shuning knew the wedding procedure, she called the girl in the house to help make a pair of special leather pants. There is a rule for the groom to kneel at the door to welcome the guests, and at least a thousand children must be beaten. In this winter, there is still unmelted snow on the ground, even if it is clean, kneeling down at night is not playing on the ground. Therefore, the pants designed by Shuning are not only made of sheepskin, but also made of thick sewing of hands and feet at the knees, and even stuffed cotton into them, which is somewhat like "easy to kneel" in a certain clear costume idol drama that I watched before wearing them. She originally persuaded her brother to put it on early in the morning, but Duan Ning felt that wearing such clever pants to worship heaven and earth was not very respectful to his wife, so she refused. But now it's no longer a problem to go and greet guests.

Duan Ning kept beating Qian'er at the front door, and when he toasted to the guests, he knelt down on his knees again and again, and deeply felt that his sister's idea was really clever, so he simply asked people to make a few more preparations, and they could use it in the future.

In addition to the relatives and friends of the two families and the relatives of the Tong family, the Nala family, and the Shen family, the guests who came today also included Duanning's old classmates, Guozijian and Zongxue, among whom there were many young clan children like Tongying. These people are young, although they all have noble titles, but they are impatient for others to salute them, just frolicking and making fun of Duan Ning's "stupidity" with a big red flower on his chest today.

Zhang Bao also greeted guests at the front door, and when he saw his son and these friends joking with each other, talking and laughing, he generously no longer treated these red and yellow belts as nobles, and only ordered the people below to wait for a good life, so that these gentlemen drank refreshedly. And these children saw this. They all felt that Duanning's father was not a layman, so he happily followed people into the wedding shed to drink.

After a while, it was dark, and lights were lit up everywhere in the house. Duan Ning saw that no guests came for a while. So he told the others to go to the concierge next to him to rest on the fire. He had just taken a few sips of hot tea. Then I heard someone else report that another guest had come.

This time it was the two cousins and the fourth elder brother of the Tong family who came back, as well as their respective relatives.

Duan Ning wanted to bow down, but was stopped by the fourth elder brother and said, "No need to be polite, everyone is cousin." Today is your day of great joy, and these rules will be waived, just let me be a relative and come to drink the wedding wine. ”

Seeing that he insisted, the two cousins of the Tong family helped to speak again, so they didn't postpone it anymore, and made a toast as usual, so he asked Huzi to welcome them to the seat where Tongying was, and sat down with the sons of the clan and nobles, and the ladies who came with them. He was accompanied by his mother-in-law into the inner courtyard. said that Shu Ning, Fang Ning, Wan Ning and Yuan Ning and other sisters were talking to the bride in the new house, and the Li family and the sister-in-law also had fun. Zhenzhen is shy. In the end, it is a generous girl's house, and it is not like the other bride's side. Soon won the favor of a group of sisters-in-law.

Wan Ning originally knew Zhenzhen. But it's strange to not see each other for a long time. Seeing that she spoke simply, and her appearance was better than when she was a child, she was also happy, so he kept teasing her. From when she and Duan Ning met, how many times they met, to when they fell in love, when they talked about marriage, they all asked one by one. Zhenzhen's face was flushed, so she lowered her head and didn't speak.

Li Shi hurriedly persuaded: "Where did the second sister know this? Don't let people hear the jokes. Yuan Ning tugged at the corners of her mouth beside her: "Isn't it?" The third brother and the third sister-in-law are married to the emperor, and it is not interesting for the sister to ask these strange. ”

Wan Ning pouted, "What's this?" I also heard that they had known each other for several years before asking. Shuning diverted the topic, talking about the embroidery on Zhenzhen's wedding dress, I don't know which one made it, and then said that the jewelry she wore was exquisite, and I don't know which shop made it. Fang Ning and the Li family interjected one after another, bringing up the topic, and Wan Ning was interested, and soon joined in. Only Yuan Ning glanced at Shuning and bent the corners of her mouth. When Wan Liuha entered the new house, she happened to see a group of sisters-in-law, talking and laughing, she was a little depressed in her heart, thinking about why she was not so popular, and she was even more depressed when she saw Zhenzhen's beauty. However, she soon thought that her enemy was a six-rank guard, but the uncle who was the groom today was only an eight-rank guard, so she became proud again, and thought: A woman is married, and all her glory comes from her own man, no matter how high your father's official position is, no matter how beautiful he is, what is the use of marrying a man who is not angry?

She thought to herself, so she leaned over and laughed, and everyone was very polite to her. She chatted for a while, then turned to Wan Ning and said, "I remember that the second girl and the fourth Beile Fujin are best friends, aren't they?" I just saw this Fujin coming, and the second girl didn't go to meet it? ”

Wan Ning was stunned for a moment, and her face was a little pale: "Sifu Jin...... How did it come? ”

"I remember that the third aunt is the Tong family, right? The Four Baylors and the Four Blessings probably came here for this aspect. Wan Liuha replied indifferently and turned his head to talk to Shu Ning: "I heard that there are a lot of distinguished guests in front of me, and there are many clans, I heard that they are all old classmates of the fourth brother?" ”

Shu Ning's mouth responded, and she quietly paid attention to Wan Ning's face, only to see her stunned for a while, her expression became serious, and she said to everyone: "Since Sifujin is here, I always have to go to say hello." I lost my company first. Then he got up and went out of the room.

Shuning was a little worried, afraid that something would happen to her brother at the wedding banquet, so she found an excuse to go out. When I came to the courtyard of the hostess, I asked my mother-in-law and found out that she was the guest of honor in the house.

Shuning entered the house and greeted the female guests, and then sat down next to Wanning. Wan Ning was talking to Sifu Jin Yumin, and Yu Min said, "...... It's really not intentional, it's the grandmothers who are blocking the royal rules, and I can only obey them. I've been wanting to invite you over, but I've been busy. ”

Wan Ning smiled: "Your identity is not as good as before, and I am not stingy, so naturally I won't blame you." How have you been married for so long? Fourth Elder Brother ...... Is it good for you? Her voice was a little nervous, her eyes fixed on Yumin.

Yumin blushed slightly. Said shyly: "He treats me very well...... My mother also loves me...... I'm doing well, you don't have to bear it

Wan Ning's face turned pale, and she only felt that her heart was like a knife. just barely supported the smile: "That's good, I'm still worried that you won't get along with those concubines." I will be wronged. ”

"How so? My lord treated me very well, and those sisters were not difficult to get along with. Yu Min wiped the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief and changed the subject: "But it's really not easy to get along with the Fujin people in other provinces." I rejoice at the thought that you will be my concubine in the future. Then we will be able to come and go as often as before. ”

Wan Ning's face turned paler. Just barely laughing. However, Yumin soon talked about other things, and her face gradually improved.

Shuning accompanied her and occasionally said a few words. After a while, the second sister-in-law came over and said two words in her ear, and she quit, and she said to Yumin: "Fu Jin said that Sibeile drank too much and was a little dizzy. I have already changed to the prepared room to rest, please Fu Jin go over and take a look. ”

Yumin knew in her heart, complaining in her mouth, "Why do you drink so much". Then he got up to leave. Wan Ning rolled her eyes and bit her lip. "Shall I go with you?" Show you the way. Shuning smiled: "I'll accompany you." A few wives over there seem to be beckoning my sister over. Then he led Yumin away.

Wan Ning turned around and saw several aunts shouting, complaining in her heart. I had to bite the bullet and deal with a few words.

Shuning and Yumin walked to the gate of the courtyard and met up with the second sister-in-law who was waiting there, and went to a quiet house, and the fourth elder brother was already talking to the Tong family. When he looked back at his wife, he said, "Come and see your aunt." ”

Yumin had already heard him say before he came, and he didn't put on a show, and he bowed down and worshiped each other seriously. Tong Shi hurriedly said: "If you can't help it, wouldn't it be a loss of my life if you can't do this?" The fourth elder brother said: "I have been cared for by my aunt since I was a child, but I have not received anything in return. Now that I have married my wife, I should have let her see her. Aunt Mo excused. Tong couldn't do it, so he had to stand half a step away and accept a bow from his husband and wife, and then ordered Shuning to come and see him again.

I saw the people sit down and talk. She stayed outside and guarded. Tong and the fourth elder brother first chatted about some recent family affairs, and when they saw that the fourth elder brother looked a little haggard, and the person had lost weight, he sighed: "The fourth elder brother is also a family now, why has he lost weight?" When I go back, I'll ask someone to send you a few places to stew soup, and you remember to ask someone to make it and eat it. ”

Yumin's face turned red: "I didn't take care of it." The fourth elder brother said, "How can I blame you? I'm just worried about business and don't have the heart to eat or sleep. Tong frowned and said: "No matter how much business you do, you have to take care of your body, don't you understand this reason when you are so old?" Although I don't know what is going on outside of you men, but in the end, I have heard some of those words of the people in this house, don't take it too seriously, how can you say that you will lose it if you have seen people's hearts for more than ten years? Sooner or later, it will be known who is right and who is wrong. ”

Yumin was a little surprised when she heard Tong's tone at first, and the fourth elder brother looked like she was bowing her head and being taught, but after listening to Tong's words, her heart moved: "Master, what's the trouble?" But he wouldn't tell me. ”

The fourth elder brother smiled: "It's all shadowless, why bother to let you know?" It's just a mess, so don't ask. Yumin looked at him and smiled and didn't say much.

But apparently the person concerned is not so easy to speak. Outside the house, there was a voice from the second sister-in-law: "Why did the second girl come over?" This is the place where you can go to the big table outside. Wan Ning's voice sounded: "I just heard that the fourth elder brother is drunk, and I don't know what the situation is now, so I came to ask." Why is the second sister-in-law still here? Everyone in the room had their own thoughts, and Shuning's mind flashed and glanced at Tong's family, and quickly got up, opened the door a little, flashed out, and closed it again. She smiled and said to Wan Ning, "Is the second sister here too?" Then he turned to the second sister-in-law and said, "The hangover medicine you brought just now is very effective, and the fourth elder brother is fine." The second sister-in-law said knowingly: "Then it's good, I'll go back to the table to help first." Then he turned and walked away.

Wan Ning was a little disappointed: "It turns out that someone has already sent medicine?" I even brought medicine with me. How is the fourth elder brother now? Shall I go in and take a look? She really wanted to see him again.

Shuning shook his head and said, "He is sleeping now, Sifu Jin is in it to accompany him, so let's not disturb it." "Just kidding, my mother is still in it, how can I goof?!

Wan Ning wanted to say something. Someone behind her asked, "What's going on?" "It turned out to be a cousin of Tong's family. She saw the two Shuning sisters standing here, turned her head to look at the outer courtyard not far away, and frowned, "This place is too close to the big table outside." Inevitably, a male guest will come. Why did you girls come here? She glanced at Wan Ning a few times and said, "I've decided on someone else's girl." We should be more cautious in our words and deeds. The guests outside drank too much, who knew what would happen, and you were too careless. ”

Wan Ning's face turned red and white when she heard this, and she whispered, "I'll go back first." Then he hurriedly gave a salute and left. Shuning smiled and said to her cousin: "Originally, it was only the fourth elder brother who was drunk in the back. I brought Sifujin over to take care of me before I came here. Then the aunt understood, looked at the closed door of the room, and said, "It's inside, right?" Does it matter? I'll take a look. ”

Shuning hurriedly said: "It doesn't matter if you have already taken the anti-alcohol medicine. She paused and lowered her voice: "Sifu Jin is accompanying him, I'm just guarding outside, so as not to let people approach." The aunt was a little amused: "Really...... But newlyweds inevitably ...... That's it. It's not like you're a girl, and it's not like you're guarding outside, so I'll send someone to call the entourage of the fourth elder brother. Then he walked back. Shuning secretly breathed a sigh of relief. I couldn't help but laugh when I saw the second sister-in-law flash out from behind a nearby tree.

Words from outside came into the house. The fourth elder brother smiled and said to the Tong family: "Sister Shu is becoming more and more capable now. It's really my aunt's child. Tong smiled: "It's just a little clever." You see that she is steady, but in fact, she is also unrestrained inside. Now Brother Duan has become a parent. I just hope that my daughter who is safe and secure in the family can have a good home, and it is enough for Brother Xian to have a future in the future.

The fourth elder brother's heart moved: "Auntie, you are ...... Worried about Sister Shu's draft next year? Tong sighed: "No matter what, it's the emperor's grace, but as a mother, I always hope that my daughter can marry a good family and not suffer any grievances." ”

The fourth elder brother asked, "What does my aunt think?" Just listen to it, maybe I can do something. Tong Shi glanced at him and smiled: "What can I think?" The three of her sisters are drafted together, and she will most likely lose the draft, and I have already seen several families. Originally, General Wu Dan's second son was good, but it was a pity...... Now we are close to his family, and it is too rare to be intimate. ”

The fourth elder brother groaned: "Chongli? A gentleman indeed. Tong secretly sneered and said, "It's really rare for people like us to change relatives." I also pay attention to other families, but you also know that Shu'er doesn't like to interact with other families on weekdays, and there are few people she knows, only Tongying's little grandfather gets along well with her. It's just this little grandfather...... The water in Prince Jane's mansion is too deep, and I am afraid that she will be wronged. I grew up and married into a big family, and I really don't want my daughter to suffer like that. ”

The fourth elder brother lowered his head and thought about it, and said with a smile: "Auntie, don't worry, I have a plan in my heart, and I will find a way." "I'm splitting the line from a different perspective

The conversation between Tong and the fourth elder brother and his wife lasted not long, and because she was still worried that there were guests outside, she left quickly. Shuning originally followed her mother, halfway through, remembering that Da Liu was still in Huaiyuan, so she separated from her mother and walked to the backyard alone. On the way, she heard someone sobbing, and she followed the sound to touch it, but now Wanning was crying behind a bush.

She hurriedly asked, "Second sister, what's wrong with you?" Wan Ning looked up, flashed a pair of tearful eyes, and saw Shu Ning move her mouth, so she jumped up and cried. Shuning was startled, and hurriedly asked what was wrong, and when she couldn't get an answer, she guessed that she couldn't see the fourth elder brother, so she cried? She saw that Wanning was crying pitifully, and her heart softened a little, so she gently patted her on the back and comforted her.

Wan Ning recalled that when Fang Cai Shuning went out, she saw through the crack in the door that the fourth elder brother was talking softly with a smile on his face. Although I couldn't see who he was talking to, there was only Yumin in the room, and it must be her. I didn't expect their husband and wife to be so affectionate, how could she not feel uncomfortable in her heart?

She cried for a long time, and when Shuning was worried about whether she would send someone to find them when they were not there, she gradually stopped. She choked up and said to Shuning: "Third sister, don't tell anyone to go." Shuning nodded: "Your eyes are swollen, and others will definitely go back to the house to wash their faces." ”

Wan Ning responded, stood up straight, tidied up her clothes, and walked in the direction of her yard, knowing in her heart that the past was over, and she was going to start a new life.

(I'm sorry, I'm sorry, forgive me for the sake of the big show ^^b)
