Chapter 207: The Big Wedding
"The bride has arrived!"
The Gu Mansion was lit up and down, and everyone was beaming. The relatives and friends of the guests had already stretched their necks and waited at the door, and when they saw Gu Yunji coming back with the welcoming team, they immediately crackled and set off firecrackers, and the sound of gongs and drums sounded in unison, which was very lively.
Xi Po dragged Gu Yunji to the sedan chair and said with a smile: "Please ask the groom to kick the sedan chair." β
Gu Yunji smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and patted it lightly on the top of the sedan chair as a reminder.
Feeling the movement from the top of the sedan chair, Xu Shuhua's nerves in the sedan chair tightened, and he was a little apprehensive in an instant. The groom kicks the sedan chair, cheers up, and is not afraid of guilt after marriage; And the bride also has to kick it back, set up a gang, and ask her husband to respect her.
Among them, the bride's kick of the sedan chair is very particular, and it is best to be on par with the strength of the groom's kick, and the sound is about the same, so as to maximize the face of both parties.
Xu Shuhua was thinking about what kind of force he should use to kick back later, but found that Gu Yunji had no movement after shooting the top of the sedan chair, and he did not kick the sedan chair for a long time. She looked up suspiciously, and saw a muscular hand reaching out of the palanquin.
Gu Yunji's low laughter came from outside: "If I don't come out again, my hands will be sore." β
Xu Shuhua was slightly stunned, then settled down, reached out to hold his hand, and slowly walked out of the sedan chair.
Seeing that Gu Yunji didn't kick the sedan chair, everyone was stunned, Gu Huaihui was the first to react, and joked loudly: "Cousin Yunji is reluctant to let his cousin-in-law suffer even the grievance of kicking the sedan chair, and he must not spoil his sister-in-law to the sky in the future!" β
When everyone heard this, they immediately burst into laughter.
Listening to the laughter of the people around her, Xu Shuhua's ears turned red, but fortunately, there was a hijab in the way, so that everyone did not see her shame. Gu Yunji laughed at it, didn't take it to heart, and with the help of Xi Po, he carried Xu Shuhua on his back, and walked towards the main hall with steady steps.
Xu Shuhua was petite and lightweight, Gu Yunji supported her legs and walked without any burden. The two have never been close to each other like this, even though the surroundings are noisy and noisy at this moment, but listening to each other's slight breathing, it seems that only the two of them are left in the quiet of heaven and earth.
The woman behind her didn't say a word, Gu Yunji couldn't see her face, nor could she hear her voice, walking and walking, her heart suddenly felt a little bottomless, so she turned her head and shouted softly: "Shuhua? β
The other party still didn't respond, Gu Yunji became more and more flustered, and called again: "Shuhua? β
"Well, I'm here, what do you want me to do?"
Hearing the familiar voice, Gu Yunji's heart relaxed: "It's nothing, I just want to call you." I can't hear your voice, and I'm panicking. β
Xu Shuhua climbed on his shoulder, smiled lightly, and comforted softly: "What are you panicking about?" I'm here, and I'm not going to leave you. β
Hearing this, Gu Yunji was completely relieved and carried Xu Shuhua all the way into the main hall.
In the main hall, Gu Kaizhen and Mrs. Wang were already sitting upright. As Gu Yunji's biological mother, although Aunt Zhao can't accept the gifts of her son and daughter-in-law, she also sits on the side and can watch Gu Yunji and the two get married.
The auspicious time has arrived, and seeing that everyone is ready, Gu Yuanhui, the officiant, stood up and cleared his throat, and said loudly: "Worship heaven and earth!" β
Gu Yunji and Xu Shuhua each held one end of the red silk, turned around in unison, and bowed deeply to the door.
"The Second Worship Hallβ"
Gu Yunji is the most promising and sensible of the three brothers, and now he has also come to this step of starting a family, Gu Kaizhen and Mrs. Wang are both relieved and happy, and they smile from ear to ear.
Watching her son take the bride to salute her father and mother, Aunt Zhao could almost empathize, her eyes were moist as early as the moment the two entered the door, and now she cried with joy, and kept wiping her tears with a handkerchief.
"Husband and wife worship each otherβ"
At the moment of bowing down, Gu Yunji and Xu Shuhua couldn't see each other's expressions, but they both noticed that each other's heartbeats were fast, beating vigorously and vigorously, just like their mood at the moment, excited and happy.
Seeing this, Gu Yuanhui smiled and announced loudly: "Licheng!" β
Hearing this, everyone applauded and cheered, and immediately stepped forward in a hurry, hugging the two newcomers all the way into the new house. At the same time, the front yard was opened, and the guests were seated, so Gu Yunji had just stayed in the new house for a long time, and he didn't even say a word to Xu Shuhua, so he was pulled out to toast.
Gu Yunji has long been famous, and he is the protagonist of today's wedding, many guests have teasing thoughts, and they are all vying to pour him wine, and they have the posture of getting him drunk.
Gu Yunji is the groom's official, if he was drunk and unconscious before entering the cave room, wouldn't he be making a joke? It was Gu Yunxiao who protected him throughout the whole process, blocking for him if he could block it, and drinking it himself if he couldn't stop it, just like he got married three years ago and blocked the wine himself, but the situation of the two was adjusted to each other.
However, today is not the same as at that time, the guests who came were all high-ranking officials and nobles in Beijing, with high power and many elders, so it was not good to save their face and refuse to drink directly. Gu Yunxiao had no choice but to take glass after glass to himself, and after half a circle of wine, Gu Yunji was fine, he was drunk first.
The eldest brother Gu Yunxiao has already been drunk, and the second brother Gu Yunlin is not up to the task, Gu Yunji didn't help stop the wine at this time, and seeing that he was about to be overwhelmed by the enthusiastic guests, in a hurry, he had to pull Cheng Yan up from the banquet to toast with him.
Cheng Yan quickly entered the role, and immediately protected Gu Yunji behind him. Who knew that the guests saw that it was Zhuang Yuanlang, and they became more and more energetic, and they turned their attention to him, and they toasted for a while, climbed friendship, and wanted to take this opportunity to say kiss to him, so that Cheng Yan couldn't get out.
The two of them couldn't resist it, so Gu Yunji casually found a reason to temporarily leave the banquet, and as soon as the groom left, the guests had no reason to continue to pester Cheng Yan, and they dispersed one after another.
Cheng Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to find a secluded place to rest, when he saw Gu Yunqiao walking towards him.
Cheng Yan bowed slightly: "Miss Gu is good." β
Catching a glimpse of the hangover pill in Gu Yunqiao's hand, Cheng Yan subconsciously thought that she was here to find Gu Yunji, so he said, "Miss Gu is going to send the hangover pill to Yunji?" He should be in the backyard by now, and it may be a little while. Why don't you give it to me first, and I'll pass it on to him later? β
Gu Yunqiao shook his head and said, "This hangover pill is not for my brother, but for Cheng Gongzi." β
Cheng Yan was a little stunned: "For me?" β
Gu Yunqiao's eyebrows were crooked, and he said with a smile: "Cheng Gongzi just drank so much wine for his brother, and my brother was able to retreat because of this. One drinks too much and the other drinks less, how can anyone who drinks too much ignore the person who drinks too much, but instead care about the person who drinks less? This hangover pill should naturally be given to Cheng Gongzi. β
Cheng Yan has always been accustomed to putting himself in a secondary position, and only after listening to Gu Yunqiao's words did he realize that this was the truth, and he smiled dumbly for a moment, and reached out to take Gu Yunqiao's hangover pill: "Then thank you Miss Gu." β
"It's just a trivial matter, Cheng Gongzi doesn't have to say thank you." Gu Yunqiao returned the salute generously, and then turned around and left.
