Chapter 263: Flower Candle (I)
It wasn't until he entered the cave room that Chen Lan felt that the hustle and bustle just now had disappeared from his ears all at once.
After sitting in the tent and withdrawing the account, she finally calmed down while sitting firmly on the bed, listening to the praises of the mothers one after another as if singing, and she even had time to ponder. But in an instant, "a weighing rod wrapped in red paper suddenly reached into the hijab, and before she could react, she gently picked aside the big red pin gold handkerchief, and then the weighing rod fell, revealing the face she was extremely familiar with." It's just that, unlike the usual coldness, at this moment, his face is red as if he was drunk, and his eyebrows are full of joy and pleasure that can't be hidden. When he saw her coming, he smiled knowingly.
The mothers in the room rarely knew that the bride and groom had seen each other before, and when they saw them at first glance, they seemed to have a deep understanding, and several people couldn't help but glance at each other, and then one of them stood up and smiled: "It's time to drink Hexiang wine!" ”
Two silver cups tied with multicolored silk threads were held by the two mothers and sent up, and one left and one right were personally handed to the hands of the two newcomers. Between the four eyes, Chen Lan, who had not yet drunk, felt the blazing gaze, only to feel that his face was a little hot. It wasn't until Yang Jinzhou gently raised her hand to gesture that she didn't raise her hand to sip the cup with him, and waited until she drank half of it before putting it down, and the two mothers exchanged the cups in their hands with a smile, and they drank the remaining half of the cup by them as they could. Although it was not a strong drink, it was almost dusk at this time, and Chen Lan's stomach was empty, but this glass of wine felt as if a fire was instantly ignited in his chest and abdomen, and his cheeks were even crimson.
Seeing Chen Lan like this, Yang Jinzhou was slightly stunned and came to his senses, knowing that she must have an empty stomach, so it was uncomfortable to drink. He coughed lightly, and was about to give an order, when a mother over there was already waiting at the door, and then she picked up something and came up quickly.
"Fresh into the dumplings of the descendants!"
Chen Lan was already dazzled at this time" Hearing the words dumplings of this descendant, his eyes suddenly brightened, and his stomach seemed to match her eagerness, and he actually let out a grunt. At this time, "she finally realized that her gaffe was more than a face, and she couldn't help but blush as if it were burning, and she wanted to bury her head in the thick brocade quilt on the bed. But Yang Jinzhou had never seen her so cute and cute, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a while, until his mother reminded him again, and he saw that two boxes full of dumplings from his children and grandchildren had been sent to him and Chen Lan.
Although he was already hungry, he could be served by his mother to eat dumplings, "Outside, you can still hear the voice of the boy asking in a loud voice, where can Chen Lan, who swallowed it, know what kind of stuffing is here, and can only eat with a red face and answer, seeing that Yang Jinzhou on the opposite side is still looking at herself, as if she is usually eating from a natural home, even if she knows that this is just a mouthful, she still can't help but glance sideways, and then bite the dumplings in her mouth fiercely. She originally felt that the marriage was too early, but who knew that in the end, she was forced to be two months early, and she was not even mentally prepared!
With the endless stream of many sons and grandchildren, full of wealth, glory, happiness, longevity and countless other auspicious words, plus the children outside who shouted "born or not", Chen Lan finally finished eating seven dumplings in a daze, but just when the two mothers smiled and put away the box and retreated, she heard a sentence in her ears and immediately raised her head in surprise.
"You won't be able to eat longevity noodles until you meet them, and if you're still hungry at this time, you'll have to eat some snacks to cushion your stomach."
Yang Jinzhou saw Chen Lan raise his head, and added in a low voice: "I still have to go to the front to toast one by one, and come down for at least an hour, after all, they can't make trouble in the cave room, they came all the way from Xuanfu, and they have to appease the ............ of Anjiao, and besides, this head full of gold is too heavy to wear, "Hurry up and let them replace you, it's good to be loose and loose,"
When the two mothers on the side heard this, they all pursed their lips and snickered, and one of them smiled and stepped forward and curts, "Don't worry, sir, Madame, we will take care of the housekeeper, and you won't be hungry or tired." Otherwise, we wouldn't have gone around several times to send it over. The guests are still waiting, so let's go first. ”
Seeing Yang Jinzhou standing up, Chen Lan couldn't help but remind: "Although you have a good amount of wine, but if the guests at the table, if so, it is not fun to salute...... Be careful! ”
"Okay, don't worry!"
When Yang Jin and Zhou came, the four mothers and grandmothers came up in clusters, first helped Chen Lan to the dressing table, removed the heavy Zhai crown, and then took off all the gold events and wrapped them in silk handkerchiefs, and then brought water to Chen Lan to make up and wash his face. It's just that although she is still wearing this, there is no heavy burden on her head, Chen Lan can finally move her shoulders, which have been completely stiff, and when she stands up and turns around, she sees a mother holding a boxwood plate in both hands, and a porcelain cup on it.
"It's rock sugar bird's nest porridge, the old lady has already ordered the kitchen to prepare it, I don't know how long it will take, Madame, please use it first."
Thinking of Yang Jinzhou's care when he came, as well as the bird's nest porridge that Jiang Ming's team had prepared a long time ago, Chen Lan only felt that all the fatigue and anxiety of today had gradually disappeared. Sitting back on the bed, slowly stirring the small porcelain cup with a small silver spoon, she was still inevitably worried about the future.
It's time to toast... Amitabha, there is no best man who can attract wine these days, he must be leisurely!
As Chen Lan expected, Yang Jinzhou in front of him took turns to toast, those noble and high-ranking officials were better, most of them sat down and went home, but it was the young people of the same generation who were not the rest. Although he has a good amount of wine, "but today because he is a new upstart" and the face of the Yixing county lord, the nobles of the clan account for most of them, and his former robes have not yet been coaxed, but these people are all around him and do not let him come, and he is doured with left and right cups. A few slightly familiar faces are just that, and I saw a few fresh faces that I had never seen before also come over to mingle," he suddenly looked slightly gloomy.
"Lord Yang, you have respected so many people, you can't help but give us face!"
"That's it, if it weren't for the fact that you are a hero, we would have been here a long time ago!"
"Today's great day, you have to have fun!"
At this moment, Yang Jin Zhou coldly heard a low voice from behind him: "Brother-in-law, those two are the side disciples of the Yang family of Runing Bo, and there is also a clan that was close to King Wu in the past, don't bother with them!" ”
Without looking back, Yang Jinzhou knew that it was Chen Yan who was speaking from his mother's house today, and his heart jumped, and he couldn't help but secretly praise the little guy for being clever. It's impossible to ignore it at this moment, and he was about to speak, but someone next to him stepped forward.
"Lord Yang has poured more than ten or twenty cups all the way, and if you drink it again, this cave room will be disturbed by everyone at night, "I think you don't want my second aunt to be angry and come to you to find your bad luck, right?" With this voice, Zhang Yi, the prince of South Korea, stepped forward, he was usually a little soft and nerdy, but he was full of momentum at this time, and his eyes swept like a knife at the three people in his head, and then he said lightly, "I am also the eldest brother today, if I drink, I will do it for my uncle!" ”
Among the noble princes, although Zhang Zhao is the prince of the country, he has always studied behind closed doors and does not care about other things, so his reputation is not obvious, at this time he stood outside, and the reason was unbearable, but he couldn't help but carry the Yixing county lord out This master is not according to common sense, who provokes the heart is stunned. Therefore, the one who originally wanted to echo the coaxing quietly dodged, and for a while, the three people in front suddenly looked extremely conspicuous. At this juncture, it was not easy for them to retreat, so they had to watch Zhang Zhaolian toast three times, and then they reluctantly left.
"Thank you, Zhang Shizi."
Zhang Nuan was not strong enough to drink, and at this time, he was a little drunk after three cups, but when he heard this, he turned his head sideways and glanced at it, waved his hand angrily and said: "Since you have worshiped heaven and earth and drunk Hejuan wine, remember to call your eldest cousin in the future, of course, you can call your eldest brother... Thank you don't need to thank you, the second aunt told me, this time Hui Yu can be safe, thanks to the third cousin, and you have also helped a lot. I'm just this one sister, but I can't help her, and now I'm giving you a drink or something......"
There was a loud hiccup, and when he saw Chen Yan flashing out from behind Yang Jinzhou, he also smiled and threw his hand to himself, he swept away the seriousness of the past, and also patted the little guy's shoulder with a smile: "Little four, it's up to you in the future!" ”
Seeing Zhang Zhao waving his hand to signal that he didn't care about him, and then staggered to open, Yang Jinzhou breathed a sigh of relief, and simply took Chen Yan to the wine table in his robes. He said this, but Chen Yan in the back quietly stuck out his tongue.
...... is still making trouble in the cave room, and when he makes trouble, isn't his sister being looked down upon by everyone, then it will be cheaper for others!
After finally finishing the salute here, Chen Yan took the opportunity to pull Yang Jinzhou to hide in the corner where few people paid attention to, and saw that a small servant had already sent a sobering soup, so he breathed a sigh of relief, but he looked around for a while but was a little disappointed.
"Why hasn't Senior Brother Luo come yet......
You won't come, will you? ”
"Brother Luo said that he would come, and he would always come. About the cabinet has a face that can't get rid of it, and I heard that he will be officially appointed at the end of the year. ”
Yang Jinzhou replied with a smile, but he remembered what Du Weifang mentioned last time. At present, most of the mention's eyes are on the capital, and he has no time to pay attention to the outside, but Du Weifang asked him to pay attention to the movements of all parties in Beijing, because the emperor's movements in the south of the Yangtze River are not small. As he was thinking, he felt someone tug at his sleeve.
"Brother-in-law, look, I'm going to have a senior brother!"
Yang Jinzhou, who looked up when he heard the sound, saw that Luo Xu had already stepped into the hall over there, and hurriedly greeted him with a nod, "Chen Yanzi hurriedly followed." Neither of them noticed that there were several pairs of eyes staring at them behind them.
