Dongfu was happy at this time, thinking that Chen Ziliang had just said, "I just came back", thinking that he had not rested for two nights, so he asked Chen Ziliang to rest, and he also went down to the tree to find ginseng flowers in the back mountain to practice swords.

In this way, there was a sparring of ginseng flowers in the morning, and in the afternoon, he went to Chen Ziliang to practice internal skills, and Dongfu himself felt that both swordsmanship and internal skills had improved.

In the blink of an eye, the big day of Baoding and Cuicui was ushered in.

Bao Ding Cuicui and Wang Sister-in-law came to the temple early in the morning to invite Master Baofa and Dongfu. I went to the town to invite Mrs. San's face to come. Mrs. San smiled and agreed.

According to village custom, the marriage takes a whole day. On this day, the banquet should be placed in the big field in the village, and every household in the village does not turn on the fire to cook, so they gather in the big field to eat lively. If the owner is wealthy, he can also invite people to perform lion and dragon dances, stilt walking, etc., and have some impromptu performances. In the evening, there is also an activity called: "Receiving incense". A large village of people sat around the fire around the bride and groom, lit a finger-thick red incense, and the elders of the village made the first gong. In the sound of gongs and drums, the joy incense was passed and handed over. It's a bit like today's "beating drums and passing flowers", when the drums stop, the person who gets the joy can come up with all kinds of problems and play tricks on the newlyweds in the laughter and coaxing of everyone. The more lively it is, the more sweet and prosperous the life of the two of them will be in the future.

Ninghai Village is sparsely populated, and the whole village is combined, and it is enough to set up seven tables of banquets. In the middle there was a table to worship heaven and earth. A table of vegetarian seats was specially prepared for the magic weapon master and the elders in the village. It's only nine tables.

Early in the morning, Blacksmith Zhang put a "blasting rod" at the head of the village (there were no firecrackers in ancient times, so a long bamboo pole was burned section by section, and the sound of explosion was continuously emitted). With a crackling sound, the village became busy. Those who burn the fire, those who cook, those who deliver dishes and chopsticks, and the three aunts and six women help the bride and groom to dress up, and the children are playing and naughty all over the village, and the chickens, ducks and dogs come to the open space to find something to eat. The village was full of joy and liveliness.

Dongfu had already heard the sound of the pole, where could he stay up, and he ran down the mountain. But the master of Baofa was not in a hurry, cleaned the temple, put incense on it, and recited the scriptures for a while, then he cleaned up and slowly descended the mountain.

When Dongfu arrived in the village, a big pot and stove had been set up in the open space at the entrance of the village, and it was steaming. It turned out that there were not enough pots and stoves for cooking in the homes of small villagers on weekdays, so on such a lively occasion, only pots and stoves were set up in the open space. When there is a major event in the village, it has always been like this, and Dongfu is also accustomed to it. Next to the big pot and stove, there are all kinds of vegetables and vegetables that have been washed, cut pork, and loaches and yellow eels raised with water in several large pots. In the dustpan there was a snow-white field pheasant. There is nothing else in the village, but there is no shortage of game. Blacksmith Zhang was not idle every day, went up the mountain and down the field, and invited a few villagers to get so much. It makes people feel that their belly is drumming when they see it.

When I entered the village, I saw that the hut of Zhang Blacksmith and Wang's sister-in-law was pasted with red paper and couplets inside and out, which was nothing more than "Red Lotus opens and stalks/Caifeng Le flies, a good fate is in the same place for a long time/a hundred years of good couples are long together." Dongfu heard the sound of laughter in the next room, entered Debaoding's house, opened the curtain of the house on the west side, and saw Baoding wearing a red robe, and was being helped by two mothers-in-law in the village to tie up his hair. Bao Ding was quite uncomfortable wrapped in the big red robe, but his face was full of joy, and even the smile between his eyebrows. There was also a packet of rouge on the side, thinking that he would have to punch Baoding in the face a little. Dongfu Dale ran over and dipped some of his fingers on Bao Ding's face, leaving a red mark immediately. Bao Ding felt cold, and hurriedly rubbed it with his hand, but made a big face. Seeing Dongfu and the children crowded on the side, they all burst into laughter. The mothers-in-law on the side laughed and scolded, and coaxed Dongfu and the children out of the house. Dongfu went to Wang's sister-in-law's house again, but he didn't dare to go in, he only looked at the door once, and he could hear the chatter inside, so he was naturally dressing up.

Dongfu couldn't be idle, so he went to help everywhere again. This meal in the morning is not a main meal, but it is also hearty, there is a big bowl of back pot meat, a big bowl of dried radish fried bacon. It is in May and June, the mountain is mostly bamboo shoots and toons, so the green and tender bamboo shoots are fried, and there are toon fried eggs, as well as homemade pickles, and a big bowl is added. When the pickles are on the table, they will not be changed, and when they are finished, they will go and put them in a big bowl. There is also a bowl of soup, which is also wild mustard greens picked from the mountains, smooth and smooth, green and oily floating in the water, which is appetizing.

At noon, two blue sedan chairs came to the village, but it was Mrs. San and Sanshenhua who came. Mrs. San sealed two silver bags and asked the scattered ginseng flowers to be given to Sister-in-law Wang and Blacksmith Zhang one by one. It is rare for a large family in the village to come over, and he is regarded as a guest. I sat in a clean room, brought some melons and fruits, served tea, and invited two elderly and talkative mothers-in-law to accompany me. He also vacated the table that had been worshiped in the morning and arranged for the sedan chair to sit down, so that he could rest.

Mrs. San called Dongfu into the room again, and asked with a smile: "I heard that Shen'er said, I have been practicing with you in the past few mornings, has it grown a lot?" After a while and lunch, I'll take a look at your practice. He also asked Dongfu to sit beside him. When the mother-in-law on the side saw it, she inevitably asked, "How can Madame be so familiar with Dongfu?" Mrs. San stroked Dongfu and said with a smile: "I heard that Dongfu had a pitiful background, and when I met, I felt very close to him, and I already regarded him as my own son in my heart." The mother-in-law sighed that Mrs. San was really a bodhisattva, and said that Dongfu was a good blessing. met such a noble person as Mrs. San.

At lunchtime, there are nine dishes steaming up, a whole chicken on each table, and mapo tofu, stir-fried yellow eel, boiled loach, perilla field chicken, chopped pepper spring bamboo shoots, etc., the biggest dish is a plate of angelica stewed roe deer broth, the roe deer meat is warm, although it is not suitable for this season, it is a dish that is rare to taste.

Before the banquet, firecrackers were set off, and the master of Baofa was invited to lead two newcomers out, Cuicui was dressed in a red dress, wearing a hairpin jade pendant on her head that she usually does not wear, and her face was red and cloudy, which was beautiful and shy. Bao Ding was wearing a big red robe, wearing a big flower on his body, and his face was flushed with joy, and he didn't know if it was reflected in the big red robe, or it was given by the happy event. Master Baofa witnessed the marriage of the two, and Li Qiao, who was the master of ceremonies, said some lively words next to him, and worshiped heaven and earth, respected his parents, and worshiped husband and wife. The happy events of the village and the wild people are naturally not rich and expensive, but eating and drinking in such an open venue is an incomparable lively scene.

Bao Ding and Cuicui came to each table to toast again, pushing the glass and touching the lamp for a while, and the people were noisy, so it was not lively.
