28. Ask the bride to get out of the sedan chair by herself
On the twenty-seventh day of the lunar month, the wedding date was rushed.
But it doesn't hurt.
The wedding dress is ready-made, the price is not expensive, although the size does not fit well, the material is not good, but the color is bright, the pattern is complicated, very good-looking.
As for the dowry, Liu Xiaoyan originally planned to count the silver money and property shops left by his deceased wife, but Liu Wenchan didn't ask for it. She asked people to buy fifty or sixty large boxes, painted them with red paint, tied them with red silk, and stuffed them with mud bricks wrapped in red paper.
Let's live.
"What the hell are you going to do?" Liu Xiaoyan had a calm face, "Although the Yue family is powerful, we may not be able to fight, and we can't afford you to give up your reputation and life!" ”
Liu Wencian closed the box and straightened up, carelessly: "How big is it, and it's worth fighting?" ”
Liu Xiaoyan's brows tightened.
Behind her, Xi Niang was already urging, Liu Wencia hooked her lips and smiled, clapped her hands and turned around: "It's time for me to put on makeup." Rest for now, and I'll drink with you when I come back. ”
How can a married daughter come back on the same day?
Liu Xiaoyanpin smacked this sentence, and then thought about the things that the minions of Xia Zhai had been sneakily busy in the past few days, and he knew even more in his heart.
"You can't put yourself at risk," he said, "and you can't put yourself at risk," he said, "and what you need to do." ”
Liu Wencian nodded and didn't say much, calmly followed Xi Niang into the door, and the door was closed immediately.
Liu Xiaoyan still had nothing to say, but the guests who were joining in the excitement outside had already come, pushing and shoving and shoving and about to squeeze into this courtyard, so frightened that he hurriedly greeted him, and pushed people out with a black face: "Let's go, go outside to drink, you can enter the courtyard of your daughter's house?" ”
"Haha, Lao Liu!" The other party grabbed his shoulders and laughed, "You have now climbed to the Prime Minister's Mansion to be your in-laws, and the shelf is big!" Isn't it time to run smoothly in the future? ”
Liu Xiaoyan shook him off vigorously and said angrily: "If you talk nonsense again, I will immediately ask someone to take a broom to shoot you out!" ”
This is a real anger.
The few people next to him were all close colleagues of Su Ri, so they naturally knew why he was angry, and they didn't dare to joke anymore at the moment, so they hugged him back to the outer courtyard with a haha.
But where can the world's speculation and discussion be stopped?
Across the courtyard wall, the laughter has never stopped, mixed with the high-minded talk of some "people who understand": "...... Therefore, the officialdom is full of old foxes, and the words 'gain and loss' can be regarded as letting them eat it through! You think he doesn't know he's going to make people laugh? People don't care! What can we do if we laugh, people can still get rich with their son-in-law's glory......"
Liu Xiaoyan was furious when he heard this, and he couldn't help but roar: "Come and protect, let the dog go!" ”
Fuck the happy event, fuck the demeanor! This matter is terrible from beginning to end, and Hengzhu's daughter doesn't care, what's wrong with him sprinkling wine and madness on this "big day"!
Saixue and they were very happy to do this kind of dog and human power, so the spectators in front of Liu's house quickly dispersed. So much so that when Liu Wen Cicada went out, it was very quiet.
She was satisfied.
When she saw the sedan chair, she was even more satisfied.
The Yue family's attitude towards this marriage was almost the same as hers. The sedan chair is very wide, carried by eight people, and the color is painted beautifully, but the workmanship is very rough, and you can tell that it is rented casually at a glance.
It creaks when you step on it.
Question: Xia Zhai's mother-in-law pushed, pushed, pulled, pulled, and pulled and pulled, and it took some effort to help Liu Wencian and a clumsy little maid into the sedan chair. Zhiyue saw that it was already crowded, so she didn't go in, and followed Xi Niang silently in front of the sedan chair man.
With the sound of "getting up the sedan chair", the idlers who watched the excitement began to talk loudly again. The children ran along with the sedan chairs, the family lit a cannon behind them, and the servants sprinkled candy and copper coins into the crowd with smiling faces.
It's lively and lively, but it's quite like a happy event.
The road from Liujia to Xiangfu is not short, and the sedan chair is surrounded by a group of idlers and walks slowly, and the road has to be delayed for at least half an hour. The people next to the sedan chair changed and changed, except for the sedan chair driver, no one noticed that a little maid with heavy makeup suddenly jumped out of the sedan chair and disappeared into the crowd.
The sedan chair came to the front of the Prime Minister's Mansion with seventy-two dowries, the hall was already full of guests and friends, and the outside was also full of idlers watching the excitement.
The groom's official did not come out to greet him for a long time, but the idlers who did not know the origin went through wave after wave, and the discussion became more and more unscrupulous:
"This Miss Liu family is really lucky, with her background, it can be regarded as a concubine for Yue Sanlang!"
In this way, she pretended to swear that she would not marry! How is it now, it's not a self-defeating face? As soon as he said that he would hire her as the main room, he came! She is not afraid of the gods and bodhisattvas to blame! ”
"Don't think too badly of people, if you want me to say that when she swore an oath, she might really want to be tough, as for later...... The world is unpredictable! ”
"What's so hard to predict? Could it be that the pearl has already been knotted? Otherwise, why would you marry in such a hurry......"
Mrs. Yue listened to the increasingly unbearable discussions, smiled with satisfaction, and raised her hand to support the tired gold silk on the sideburns.
Then he strode out of the door with his head held high, and lowered his face: "What are you arguing about, don't help the newcomer get off the sedan chair!" ”
Xi Niang was stunned, looked behind her, and then looked at the sedan door: "However, the groom has not ...... yet"
"Saburo is drunk and hasn't woken up." Mrs. Yue said coldly, "The auspicious time will come soon, the bride will get off the sedan chair by herself!" ”
This is clearly going to give a disadvantage.
The onlookers were gloating, and they all wanted to see how this young lady of the Liu family responded: should she take out the momentum she had in Jingzhao Mansion that day, or should she swallow her anger and accept it?
Of course, few people present believed that she could be tough.
That day, Jingzhao Mansion was stubborn, and then he didn't get married obediently? Now that the sedan chair has arrived at the door, can she go back as she was?
Everyone talked like this, waiting, and jumping, and after a long time there was still no movement in the sedan chair.
Mrs. Yue paced two steps with her hands in her hands, and smiled again: "She is worthy of being a young lady from the Shili family who does not leave the boudoir, she is really noble!" - Xi Niang, open the curtain for me, and ask our new young grandmother to get off the sedan chair! ”
Xi Niang hesitated slightly, bowed down and answered "yes".
She was originally invited by the Yue family, so naturally she respected Mrs. Yue in everything.
So the idlers who watched the excitement came to their senses, and one by one they stared at each other, stretching their necks and tiptoeing, for fear that if they looked at it less, they would lose more than others.
The bride stepped forward with everyone's expectations, raised her hand and knocked on the sedan pole three times, and shouted "The bride gets off the sedan chair-".
Then he reached out and lifted the sedan curtain.
A scream exploded like thunder.
