529. Wedding feast

In early April, the Wu'an Hou Mansion was lively.

Such a big event of the two governments and relatives alarmed the entire capital, and the guests who came to congratulate them on receiving the wedding card were endless, and people came to the door one after another from early in the morning.

On this day, Shen Xingluo rarely met Xiu Mu, so the three masters of the Shen family got into the carriage together, and Fuguang and Wangshu brothers and sisters were responsible for catching up with the car.

The group swayed towards the Wu'an Hou Mansion, no matter in terms of staffing and carriage luxury, this family can be called quite simple, and it can be said to be inconspicuous in the eyes of a group of people who wear silk and satin.

However, whether it is Qu Shaojing, the groom official or Qu Shaoya, they are quite intimate, and they have long ordered the personal maid to wait at the door, specifically responsible for receiving their master's friends.

"Lord Shen, Mrs. Shen is here, please come here."

The little maid took the invitation in Fuguang's hand and warmly entertained the customers without looking at it, and the maid on her side was still an acquaintance, which was the cuizhu who had received them on the hot spring village on the outskirts of Wu'anhou.

"There are two of you."

"Hey, Lord Shen's words can be tormenting to the little ones, and the little marquis specially instructed the little ones to entertain the three of them well."

The little guy looked at the three members of the Shen family without a trace while leading the way, the man was dressed in blue, his eyebrows were handsome and a little indifferent, and the woman was in a green dress and skirt, one was elegant and indifferent, and the other was gentle and lovely, even the two servants around him were all good-looking.

Mother, how do these Shen family members look good, why are they so handsome!

Are you sure it's from the countryside?

Look at the temperament of this body, look at this extraordinary appearance, no one dares to question the young master and young lady in the family's mansion!

Ay? I'm afraid that the little marquis and the young lady of his family didn't make friends because they admired the Shen family's extraordinary appearance, right?

The little guy inexplicably felt that he was the truth.

"Brother Shen, this way."

Yu Heting was sitting in his position drinking tea alone, and when he saw his acquaintance get up to say hello, Shen Xingluo nodded to the other party, turned around and said a few words to Cheng Xi and walked towards him with Fuguang.

When the ancients entertained guests, male and female guests were separated, and even if it was a family, the male and female hosts of the house had different social circles.

At this point, Cheng Xi couldn't help but complain in his heart, saying "troublesome", and had some expectations.

It is also a pleasure to be able to experience the complicated marriage etiquette that has long disappeared in the long river of history in modern times.

"Mrs. Shen, Miss Shen, this is the side yard, and my wife and young lady are waiting here."

"Thank you, Sister Cuizhu, for leading the way."

"Why did Miss Shen meet the slave so much?"

Cuizhu is worthy of being a first-class girl in the Hou Mansion of Wu'an, not only knows etiquette but also is generous and decent, which makes Shen Xingqi feel that she is treated ceremoniously and feels a little intimate at the same time, and her attitude is just right.

The little girl chuckled, "Where is the outside, Sister Cuizhu specially came to pick me up and my sister-in-law, she must be busy and free." ”

"You are my young lady's best friend, the slave maid is just a guide, Miss Shen should not praise the slave maid for such a trivial matter."

Walking through a winding wooden corridor into the side yard, I met a lot of maids and maids during the process, and the order was revealed in the busyness, which was enough to show that the housewife managed the home.

"It's just ahead."

As soon as Cuizhu's voice fell, the two of them stepped into another small courtyard, and they were full of female guests dressed in flowers and branches, full of flowers, smiling and tactful.

Mrs. Wu'anhou was entertaining the guests with a smile, and most of the people talking around were the housewives of the various houses in the capital.

Cheng Xi's eyes swept around, and he unexpectedly found that there were not a few familiar faces.

The hereditary first-class duke of the Marquis of Wu'an, with a prominent status in the capital, the identity of the female guest who came to the wedding banquet and could be personally received by Mrs. Hou is naturally not ordinary, and she is not in the same circle as the people who attended the banquet before.

"Madam, Mrs. Shen and Miss Shen have arrived."

Cuizhu saluted the main mother and introduced the two sideways.

"It turned out to be a guest in the Shen Mansion, and Shao Ya's child has been looking forward to it for a long time."

Mrs. Hou was dressed in a dark red festive dress, her hair was meticulously combed, and her hairpin was fixed, dignified and atmospheric.

"I've seen Madame."

Cheng Xi bowed slightly, and unexpectedly got the staring eyes of the surrounding people, and his good ear power made the two of them hear a few small mutters.

Well, it's all about discussing the identities of their aunts and sisters-in-law.

"Don't be polite, today is a wedding banquet, if there is a bad reception, please Mrs. Shen and Miss Shen don't see outside."

"Where, it is our honor to have Miss Cuizhu personally lead the way."

The two sides exchanged a few polite words back and forth, and the two sisters-in-law received a lot of projected eyes around them, and most of the whispers in their ears turned into exclamations such as "It turned out to be Lord Shen's family".

Wow, I brushed a small wave of presence~(*^▽^*)~

"Sister Cheng and Sister Shen are here!"

Qu Shaoya came from nowhere, there were Qin Nan and Song Yan beside her, and there were several figures a few steps behind them, one of them looked a little sickly and gasped.

Cheng Xi swept the girl's eyebrows that were somewhat similar to Qu Shaoya's, and brought in the identity of the lady of Wu'an's Hou Mansion.

In just two minutes, she recognized all the main ladies in the Hou Mansion.

Of course, on such a big day, Wu Anhou's aunt or something, because of her lack of identity, is about to nest in her own small courtyard and quietly feel the excitement of the main courtyard.

"The sedan chair has arrived!"

A loud sound mixed with surprise came into everyone's ears, and the people around who were originally talking about the combination of "Mrs. Shen and Miss Shen" immediately changed the topic, and Mrs. Hou smiled when she saw this and took the female guests to the front yard.

"Everyone, let me see."

Today is a good day calculated by Qin Tian, God has not disappointed expectations, the sky is blue with occasional white clouds, and the spring sun is evenly sprinkled on the body to make people warm.

Lukewarm, it's a good time.

When Cheng Xi took Shen Xingqi and Wang Shu to the front yard with the large army, there were already a lot of male guests gathered here, and they looked at Shen Xingluo across the "newcomer road" in the middle of the living room.

At this time, he was whispering something to Yu Heting, Qin Zheng took a fan and echoed beside him, sensing the familiar gaze and looking up, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned in an arc.

"The newcomer has arrived—"

The festive blowing sound sounded, and everyone looked outside the courtyard, and saw Qu Shaojing, who was dressed in red, walking towards this side in high spirits, wearing a huge red flower on his chest, and holding a red silk in his hand to link another newcomer.

"It's Sister Jiang~"

"Hmm."

Even through the red hijab, Cheng Xi could see the familiar figure, and her mental power could even sense her nervousness.

"Worship heaven and earth—"

"The Second Worship Hall—"

"Husband and wife worship each other—"

The ceremonial official shouted loudly, and a pair of newcomers kowtowed three times to be considered a ceremony, and Cheng Xi was also able to see Wu Anhou, who had five beards and three thick beards.

Both of them were startled by the huge body.

"Thanks to Mrs. Hou's beauty~"

Shen Xingqi looked at Qu Shaojing, who was in the middle of the hall, and then looked sideways at the playful and lovely Qu Shaoya, and marveled at the genetics of this family.

"Not necessarily, maybe Wu Anhou is also a first-class beautiful man even if he shaves his beard."

"Huh?"

Shen Xingqi had a look of surprise on the radish in the arms of the little rabbit, don't doubt life too much.

The sound of the discussion between the two was too small to be heard, and with a sound of "send into the cave room", the guests on both sides of the hall were divided into two groups again, the male guests entered the table to celebrate, and the female guests mostly returned to the side courtyard with the bride.

Cheng Xi followed Mrs. Hou all the way to the new house, and finally got to see Jiang Yuyao, who was married, after the groom picked the bride's hijab.

"Wow~ Sister Jiang is so beautiful!"

"Sister-in-law is really beautiful, the most beautiful today!"

Jiang Yuyao, who was teased by everyone, blushed shamefully, adding a bit of style.

Today's bride is indeed amazingly beautiful, Jiang Yuyao's makeup was light in the past, but today she deliberately used a red lipstick, and then matched with the red dress with outstanding embroidery skills to make the whole person dignified and atmospheric.

There is also a faint bit of housewife's momentum on that face.

Cheng Xi was rarely stunned, and secretly said that the ancients changed a lot once they got married, it was like a junior high school student stepping into the workplace, and there was a sense of déjà vu that he would become a white bone spirit in a second.

"Let the lord of this county see where the bride is?"

The new room was opened again, and a girl with exquisite makeup and a luxurious body walked in, followed by two palace maids in palace clothes.

"Xue Han!"

Qu Shaoya rushed over in surprise, "Why are you free to leave the palace today?" ”

"How can Sister Yuyao's marriage not come to such a big event? I begged my uncle for a long time before I came out. ”

The noble woman's name is Lu Xuehan, and her mother is the youngest and only sister of the saint today, Lu Xuehan has been deeply loved by the saint since she was a child, and she was awarded the title of the lord of Cheng'an three years ago.

Compared with the powerful maternal family, the name of the father of the lord of Cheng'an should not be underestimated, although he was born poor, he won the title of champion in the imperial examination more than ten years ago, Princess Meng took a fancy to become a concubine, even if he did not enter the court over the years, he also made a lot of friends with a lot of Hongru with his hand Danqing, perhaps because the life of the concubine was too boring and often held various poetry gatherings.

It is said that he is a beautiful and beautiful son.

Oh no, I should say that he is a mild-mannered and beautiful uncle by now.

Cheng Xi automatically came up with the above introductions in his mind after hearing the self-proclaimed title of "this county lord", in fact, it is easy to distinguish, so far there is only the one in front of him who can be called the county lord.

There are seven princes who have survived to the order of the saint, and there are a few little princesses, but the royal county lord is in short supply, except for the few little dolls in front of him who are still slugs.

Thinking of this, she had to sigh at the scarcity of royal heirs, and it was clear that the princes had a lot of side concubines and concubines.

"Shaoya, have you met a new friend again? Don't you want to introduce it? ”

"Introduction, it is difficult for you to go out of the palace, I will introduce you one by one."

Seeing the bride sending belated makeup, the little county lord who had not yet reached the end of the year saw a few strangers, Shen Xingqi found out that the rest of the people had gone out at some point, and the people who stayed in the new house were all friends of the bride and Qu Shaoya.

"This is Mrs. Shen and Miss Shen, the family members of the Hanlin Academy who edited Lord Shen's mansion."

"Is it the wife and sister of the Zhuangyuanlang family?"

Lu Xuehan looked at the two of them curiously, and his palm-sized little face was a little more surprised, and he glanced at it a few times when his beautiful eyes swept over.

"I've seen Lord Cheng'an."

"Since the two of them are Shaoya's sisters, they are their own sisters, so they don't need to be polite."

She raised her hand slightly to dispense with the etiquette of the two, "I have heard of Lord Shen's name before, but I never thought that Mrs. Shen and Miss Shen would be so outstanding. ”

"Thank you for the compliment, if it is about appearance, the two of us are far inferior to the county lord."

"Don't call me the county lord, Mrs. Shen can call me Xuehan like Shaoya, and Cheng'an is fine."

The county lord of Cheng'an smiled more brightly when he heard others praise her beauty, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that she was very useful, which attracted a lot of jokes from others, and even Jiang Yuyao, who had just lifted her red hijab, covered her mouth with a red veil.

After entering the new house, she changed her name, and she unconsciously brought a little closeness when talking to a few people, which is enough to show that there is still a bit of friendship between her and Qu Shaoya and others.

Cheng Xi never thought that there was a member of the royal family in this small group.

"I haven't seen you for so many days, and you're still so shameless and skinless."

"Who has no face and no skin?"

Lu Xuehan crossed her waist, "I haven't come out for a few months, and you actually made such a flower-like girl behind my back?" Do you still treat me as a friend? ”

"Who made you stay in the palace? If you are in your princess's mansion, you will definitely not miss these gatherings. ”

"Alas~ I can't help it."

"You, you are deeply favored by the saints, this is to show off in front of us!"

"You can see it!"

The rest:

Cheng Xi and Shen Xingqi:

Sure enough, the personalities of the people who are familiar with Qu Shaoya are different.

A few people laughed and teased, and finally pulled the topic to the bride, Cheng Xi was married after all, and after greeting a few people, he asked Cuizhu to take Mrs. Xunhou to go, and Shen Xingqi took Wangshu to stay in the new house.

***

The female guests were lively and chattering, but the male guests in the front yard had been attracted by the fruit wine on the table.

The fruit wine is naturally from the Qin family, and it is the first shot to open up the market.

When the maids filled the wine glasses for everyone, many people smelled a domineering fragrance into the tip of their noses, and the wine fragrance carried a few traces of fruit, mellow and thick, attracting several people who spoke to glance at the sight again and again.

"What tastes so good?"

"It's like. It's the smell of wine! ”

There is no man who doesn't love wine, even if he doesn't love it at first, the old and young masters who are used to the life of the Dayan family will gradually change their attitude towards wine, not to mention that drinking is still an indispensable item for dinner table culture.

The smell of wine wafting in the air alone was enough to make this small field shake.

The first to notice the abnormality was a drunkard, who was also a subordinate of Wu Anhou, who was drinking the fruit wine in the cup with a full beard and letting out a loud exclamation.

"Good wine, good wine!"

After the words fell, he felt that the small wine glass was not satisfied, so he directly took the small pot closest to him and poured himself a large glass, followed by a sip.

"It's enjoyable, hahahaha, another pot!"

"Is it really wine?"

Where else did everyone not understand, driven by his neatness, they picked up the small wine glass next to him and tried it, and the moment the mellow fragrance entered the mouth, it was instantly beautiful.
