Chapter 238: The Day of Greeting (2)
Liu Mang and Yu Wenxi, as their respective envoys of Fanbang, often wear Chinese clothes when they follow the customs of the countryside on weekdays, but they are still dressed as the tribe on formal occasions. But although Ah Zhuang is a Huns, after entering Shifu, he has long been dressed as Chinese. Not only is the dress the same, but after living in a certain group of people for a long time, even the tolerance has become similar, so Liu Mang didn't see that Ah Zhuang was a Huns.
"What, you're also a Hun?"
"Exactly." Ah Zhuang nodded and said, "I am also a Hunn, so I advise you to know some practice." Otherwise, it would be bad if we were forced to take tough measures. ”
Liu Mang and Yu Wenxi are both smart people, and what they do is also a temptation: if the Shi family does not control their behavior, it will succeed; If the Shi family is tough, of course he doesn't dare to be tough. However, Liu Mang found himself to go down the stairs and said to Ah Zhuang: "For the sake of the same Huns, I will give you this face." We've met today, and we'll see you later. ”
It was normal for two people of the same clan to recognize each other, but when they looked at each other, they seemed to feel a restless strange message from each other's eyes, which could not be expressed. Ah Zhuang's status is low, and his parents are just poor ordinary people in the Xiongnu. Liu Mang's family is the most noble Shan Yu family in the Huns. It was a great honor for Ah Zhuang to get to know Liu Mang. At that moment, he personally sent Liu Mang and Yuwen to the other courtyard to say goodbye.
Today's visitors are all distinguished guests, not only dignitaries, but also their mothers and wives, and they also have to receive people in the palace to send relatives. Shi Hui led the family to receive male guests, and Mrs. Wang led her inner family to receive female guests, which was very lively and busy inside and out.
At this time, the honor guard in the palace happened to arrive, pulling a long walking barrier. The eldest princess of Yong'an calmly got out of the car and followed Biyu into the mansion. From the moment she got off the car, the eldest princess of Yong'an looked at this mansion attentively: Zhumen Kuo Mansion, Golden Tile House, Fang Yu Garden, layer upon layer, the gentleman's demeanor is extraordinary, and the male slave and female maid are busy but not chaotic.
Although the Shi family does not have the most honorable title and the most lucrative wealth, Shi Hui is very good at seeking it. He bought good land, ran a shop and a restaurant, opened up a wide range of financial roads, and operated in many ways, and he had already earned hundreds of millions of furniture. Regardless of prestige, in terms of wealth alone, it is not weaker than those top gatekeepers.
When the marriage was first pointed out, someone said to the eldest princess of Yong'an that the Shi family was not the third prince of the extremely human minister, and it was not a top-level gate valve at all, and such a family background was probably the identity of the eldest princess Qu. However, when she saw the situation of Shifu today, she should not be inferior to those of the A clan at all.
The eldest princess of Yong'an has lived in the palace since she was a child, and no matter what kind of luxurious mansion she has outside, it can't be compared with the palace. However, no matter how big the palace is, it is not his own, and in this mansion, he is the eldest daughter-in-law, and in the future, the entire palace will be under the control of himself and his husband. She was secretly overjoyed.
When they arrived at the gate of Biyu's courtyard, a group of maids in Biyu's room had already bowed down to the ground to greet them. The eldest princess of Yong'an glanced downward, then got up and entered the main hall.
Seeing that the two women in the lead, dressed brightly and with outstanding appearances, the black hair was more graceful and pretty, and the yellow hair was fair-skinned and more serious, and after a closer look, they were still a little kind, so they asked, "Who are you two?" ”
With a noble aura in their crisp tone, Ah Miao and Ah Yan felt a heavy pressure hit them.
Ah Yan rushed forward and said to herself: "If you go back to the eldest princess, we are the people of Gongzi's side." My name is Ah Yan, and I have been serving my son for many years, and my two of them take care of my daily food, clothing, housing and transportation......"
The eldest princess of Yong'an was originally a fairly easy and kind person, and she was not bitter, but marriage is a turning point in a woman's life, and before and after marriage are two completely different environments for women. Especially in this kind of wealthy family, there are usually many concubines around the children, and it is inevitable that there will be pampered people.
"Someone around? You are the people next to my colt, so what am I, an outsider? ”
Ah Miao saw that the eldest princess of Yong'an looked at Ah Yan sharply, knowing that Ah Yan's words had upset the eldest princess, so she hurriedly smiled and said: "The eldest princess is not strange, Ah Yan must have been frightened by the extraordinary demeanor of the eldest princess, and she said the wrong thing when she was nervous. How dare we claim to be the people around Childe? We are actually the maidservants and maidservants beside Childe. The eldest princess is the main lady of my son-in-law, and she is really the person next to my son. ”
When the eldest princess Yong'an heard this, she put away her angry face and said with a slight smile: "What are the names of the two of you?" ”
"The concubine's name is Ah Miao, her name is Ah Yan, both of us are maidservants who have been sold to Shifu since childhood, and we have always served our son."
"Why is your hair yellow?"
"I'm a Xianbei person."
"Xianbei people? Ah Miao? "The eldest princess of Yong'an has long heard that Biyu has two personal maids who love for ten minutes, and one of them is named Ah Miao, who is a Xianbei person.
Ah Yan made the eldest princess unhappy because of what she said just now, and at this time she came to offer a flattery and almost said, "The eldest princess has actually met us. At the Shangsi Festival that year, we also played Qushui Liuzhen together. It's just that the eldest princess has a noble status and doesn't take us subordinates seriously. ”
Of course, the eldest princess of Yong'an remembered it a long time ago, but the game experience of leaving the palace without permission was really not very glorious for an unmarried young princess, and she didn't want to mention it. But she clearly remembered that the first time she had two wine buds that Biyu drifted in front of that Xianbei maid Ah Miao.
Ah Miao knew that the eldest princess of Yong'an was unwilling to mention this matter in public, so she hurriedly called someone to bring a golden basin, washed the hands of Biyu and his wife, and waited for the banquet according to the instructions of the celebrant.
The ceremony of marriage is already cumbersome, and the ceremony of the lord is even more complicated. The eldest princess of Yong'an and Biyu were dominated for most of the day, and finally looked forward to the end of everything before entering the new house. The room is luxuriously furnished, and the newlyweds, daily utensils, everything is carefully added, and its degree of exquisiteness even exceeds that of the eldest princess Yong'an in the palace herself. Of course, it is not that the Shi family is more luxurious than the royal family, just because in the palace, the status of the eldest princess of Yong'an is not ranked at all, but in the Shi mansion, she is the most noble person, the phoenix tail becomes a chicken head, and she enjoys the highest level of treatment in the whole palace.
What the eldest princess of Yongan likes the most is the sweetheart she admires, and she is sitting side by side on the couch at this time.
As soon as he sat down, he saw Ah Miao and Ah Yan coming with a pot of wine and a gourd respectively. The eldest princess of Yong'an knew that this was going to be a wedding ceremony. The main body of the gourd has been cut in half in advance, and it is separated into two scoops, which together are a whole, indicating that the husband and wife are one, and they will be together for a hundred years.
Ah Miao and Ah Yan filled the two scoops with wine and presented them to Biyu and Princess Yong'an respectively. Although the main body of the gourd is divided into two halves, the tail is connected, and it is not possible to drink with each of them tilting their heads up, but two people must stand opposite each other and lean over each other to drink as if they were close to their foreheads.
Biyu and the eldest princess of Yong'an each hold a scoop, the red robe is against the green clothes, and the knight is crowned with a flower crown, and the four eyes are facing each other. The eldest princess of Yong'an couldn't help but be a little shy at this time, lowered her eyes and drank half of the wine, and then looked up at Biyu, but she didn't drink.
"Husband, drink this bar."
Biyu was still looking straight at the eldest princess of Yong'an, like a fool. The eldest princess of Yong'an couldn't guess what it was like, but she felt more pity.
Ah Miao, like Shi Hui and his wife, was originally a little worried about today's wedding, lest Biyu would make some foolish mistakes and disrupt the wedding. It's gratifying that Biyu's performance on this day was not bad, and he didn't cause any trouble. Now there is only one step left of the wine, after drinking the wine, it is done to wait for the two to be sent to the Hehuan brocade tent, how can there be a jam at this critical time?
Although he was in a hurry, he didn't want to urge directly, but said with a smile: "The eldest princess is beautiful, like a fairy descending to earth, and the son is so stunned that he forgot to drink the wine." As everyone knows, you are husband and wife after drinking the wine, and you can see enough of it in the future! Now you can't patronize and watch your wife, the eldest princess has already drunk it first, and you, the husband, will be laughed at after you fall. ”
As he spoke, he pushed the bottom of the two scoops upward, and Biyu and Princess Yong'an drank the wine dry.
After drinking the wine, the two scoops can not be thrown around, and there is also a special attention, that is, to throw them under the bed, look at the posture of the two scoops, one up and one bow for the auspicious, indicating the harmony of the husband and wife.
The eldest princess of Yong'an was originally worried that Biyu's two personal concubines would have bad intentions and would deliberately create disharmony between herself and the concubine in this link, so she had already arranged for the palace maids she brought to do this in advance. Although she reduced her suspicions after seeing Ah Miao's performance, it was better to hand it over to her confidant after all.
Who knew that this henchman palace maid was very weak, she was nervous, and made the wrong hand, but the two scoops were both prone on their stomachs. Although the eldest princess of Yong'an is unhappy, this kind of thing is not very good, and she can't throw it again.
Ah Miao and Ah Yan didn't say anything, they just laid out the mat and set pillows and waited for the newlyweds to go to bed.
Shi Hui is a pragmatist, and it is the greatest benefit to be able to marry the emperor. When he heard the result, he laughed it off and didn't take it to heart.
Although the eldest princess is noble, since she is married to a woman, she still has to follow women's morality and pay attention to ethics. On the second day, the eldest princess, as the bride, also went to meet the Shihui couple according to the etiquette of ordinary people, and served wine and food. Shi Hui and his wife are sincerely afraid, how can they feel at ease and calmly, but they just want to simply go through the motions. But the eldest princess of Yong'an did not have royal pride, and insisted on coming step by step in accordance with the etiquette and law, meticulously.
There was no way, Shi Hui and his wife could only accept the bride ceremony of the eldest princess of Yong'an in anxiety. It is said that marrying a princess will inevitably make the horse family angry. Shi Hui was also worried, but now that she sees the eldest princess Yong'an so virtuous, she can't help but be happy. How did he know that it was all thanks to his son's charm?
Some people died, but not completely......
