Chapter 623: One More Wedding for You
However, their plans did not come to fruition.
Because when Cui Pu was 'recuperating' in the annex of Fanchuan Villa, Cui Ge passed away due to old age.
When the father dies, the son must keep filial piety for three years. In that case, how could he have the face to go out to eat, drink, and have fun? At least for the first year, they had to obediently guard in Chang'an.
"Woo woo, lady, I'm so miserable!" After learning the news, Cui Pu leaned on Mu Jiaojiao's arms again and cried so miserably.
Mu Jiaojiao touched his head. "It's okay, we can do something at this time. ”
"What's the matter?" Cui Pu blinked.
Mu Jiaojiao smiled at him. "You'll know when the time comes. ”
Half a year later
A carriage with a gauze tent hanging on all sides walked slowly on the Leyou Plain. The coachman waved his whip to steer the horse forward slowly, and through the tulle, it was faintly visible that the people in the car were sitting and lying down, and their postures were extremely comfortable and elegant. From a distance, it looks like a painting.
However, the carriage that walked quietly soon caused a sensation in all directions.
"Look, that's the carriage of King Hanyang and Princess Hanyang!
I don't know who shouted, and everyone rushed here.
However, everyone consciously gathered far around the carriage, giving up enough space to the carriage to move forward.
The carriage came to a halt in the shade of a tree with a great view. Immediately, I saw a few maids jumping out of the back car, they spread a thick Persian blanket on the ground, and then put a small red clay stove, a few delicate pastries, and two small couches on the blanket. Then, I saw a maid step forward and help Mu Jiaojiao out of the carriage. Two more strong and healthy guys helped Cui Pu down.
The husband and wife sat down on the blankets, and Cui Pu began to make tea.
By the time the tea was ready, someone had already stepped forward with a child in her arms. "Princess, my little grandson has been bleeding from his nose these days, I wonder if you can help take a look?"
"Okay, put the child down first, and let me see his pulse. Mu Jiaojiao nodded with a smile and pointed to the empty seat beside her.
The person who came hurriedly put the child down.
Mu Jiaojiao looked at the face that was still there, touched and bought it for him, and heard the child's grandfather say: "This child doesn't know what's going on, he suddenly started to have a nosebleed at noon yesterday, and he can't stop it." We also thought about applying cold water and ice, but who knew that the child's bleeding would worsen. Inviting a doctor in Chang'an City didn't work, so I could only take him here to try my luck. As a result, I didn't expect that you, the princess, and the county king are really here again!"
"The king of the county has just recovered, and he will often come out and see people these days. Mu Jiaojiao said, retracting the hand that gave the child a pulse, "He is a sign of lack of yin and cold, his yang qi is weak, and he can't take blood; It's just that the futile hemostasis will not work, the necessary aphrodisiac to drive away the yin, the warm meridian to take blood, and the four reverses to save it can be rushed. ”
As soon as she finished speaking, a prescription was already sent to her: "Do you think this prescription is available?"
Mu Jiaojiao looked at it and nodded: "You wrote it right." This is the recipe, first fry it for a quarter of an hour, take a small amount first, and fry the rest of the medicine for another quarter of an hour, and then continue to take it. ”
This time, they were also prepared. After the prescription came out, the maid had already grabbed the medicine from the medicine box she brought with her, and fried it on the spot. Before the first dose of medicine was exhausted, the child's nosebleed stopped. After a while, the child's pale face regained a little blood, and his previously godless eyes began to swim with the chirping birds on the branches, and he began to hold his grandfather's hand and shout to catch the birds.
This disease was cured in this way.
Everyone looked at it and smiled. As a result, more people began to take the initiative to line up for Mu Jiaojiao to be diagnosed and treated.
Cui Pu kept grinding ink on the side and helping her write prescriptions. The husband and wife cooperated seamlessly, and they looked at each other and smiled from time to time, and the sweet atmosphere made the patients in line feel less uncomfortable.
After seeing a hundred patients as usual, they closed their stalls and planned to go back.
However, at this time, I saw Xiao Langjun, who had been cured by Mu Jiaojiao before, running over on his feet.
"Princess, this is for you!" held up a budding lotus flower in his hand, his big round and bright eyes were full of sincerity.
"Thank you. Mu Jiaojiao took it with a smile, and then swaggered twice to Cui Pu, "See, this is the consultation fee given to me by the patient!"
"See. So, how about letting your husband put it on for you now?" Cui Pu took the lotus flower with a smile and put it on her hairpin.
"Is it good-looking?" When he went out and didn't bring a mirror, Mu Jiaojiao used him as a human mirror.
Cui Pu naturally nodded. "Good looking. My lady is the best-looking!"
Mu Jiaojiao smiled. She took his hand: "Let's go!"
"Hmm. Cui Pu bowed, and the husband and wife abandoned the carriage and walked back home step by step. Hengzhu is not far from their mansion in Fan Chuan Villa, just two steps away. And now, Cui Pu's body can already withstand such a amount of exercise.
The husband and wife walked in front, and the people behind spontaneously formed a team to escort them all the way home.
The two of them had long been accustomed to everyone's way of being treated, so they continued to walk forward slowly.
It's just that just as I was about to arrive at the mansion, I suddenly heard a lively sound of gongs and drums. Mu Jiaojiao raised her eyes and saw a colorful welcoming team, which was going around Fanchuan Villa and heading towards Chang'an City.
"Whose family is marrying a daughter-in-law? Such a big pomp, I think the status is not low. Mu Jiaojiao said in a low voice.
"Princess, don't you know? Today is Liang Guogong's wife, with the saint as the matchmaker, and the little lady of the Lanling Xiao family. With the support of the saints, he naturally has to put on a big show. The maid on the side hurriedly said.
When Cui Pu heard this, he sneered. And sure enough, he floated again. ”
Mu Jiaojiao just tugged at the corners of her lips.
Liang Guogong, after returning from Shaanzhou, the sage sealed Peng Zhang's. Now, in addition to a few big eunuchs around him, he is the most trusted person of the saint. Coupled with the fact that he has not yet married a wife at an old age, the saint is naturally concerned, and it is understandable that he took the initiative to help match.
However, they absolutely believe that letting the saint be this matchmaker and putting gold on his face is definitely Peng Zhang's plan. This man is the best at doing this kind of thing.
But it doesn't have anything to do with them anymore.
"If you want us to see it, let's just watch it. Isn't it just a wedding, no matter how lively it is, it can't change the fact that he is not as good as me now! It's the age of my great-grandfather, and marrying a wife is still so fanfare, is this a joke for people, or is it going to show jokes to people?" Cui Pu said coldly.
However, at that time, he was just the identity of the concubine of the old mansion, and Mu Jiaojiao was the daughter of a merchant, so the pomp and circumstance must not be comparable to the marriage of the Son of Heaven. Peng Zhang should have grasped this point to stimulate them. Cui Pu was indeed stimulated.
When the welcoming team walked away, the two of them returned to the house, Cui Pu was still sour, and his face was very ugly.
"This bastard......" Cui Pu clenched his fists, "Stimulate me, don't you?
As he spoke, he turned around and grabbed Mu Jiaojiao's hand. "Lady, let's kiss again!"
Yes?
Mu Jiaojiao was frightened by his whim, and froze in place.
Cui Pu fixed his head, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this idea was good, so he clapped his hands and said, "Okay, this is the matter!"
Fast forward and it's been two years.
On this day, after the bell and drum of the whole city were announced, a round of red sun erupted from the sky, and the doors of various places slowly opened, and the people of Chang'an City were getting up in a daze to prepare for the start of the day's activities, when they suddenly heard bursts of shocking drums.
In all directions, before and after, the majestic drum sound seems to be far away in the sky, and it seems to be close to the ears. The unsuspecting people were frightened by the voice, and they quickly put on their clothes and ran out and asked, "What happened, what happened?"
"I heard that the old King Hanyang is going to remarry the princess today, so the soldiers who used to follow him and his former friends have come to the wedding banquet. Those who served as soldiers couldn't hold back, so they directly asked people to beat drums and play music at the city gate, adding icing on the cake to today's good deeds!" Soon someone who knew the news spoke out.
"But don't all the marriages take place at dusk? Who starts making a fuss early in the morning?"
"Oh, you don't know this, right? The old King Hanyang said that when he first married the princess, his status was low, which made the princess at that time suffer a lot. Now that he is finally developed, he is going to give the princess a special wedding, how can one evening be enough?
"He's crazy, isn't he?"
"It doesn't matter if he's crazy or not, anyway, it's such a big show, you don't watch it, I'll watch it. Today, I have to take a good look at how the old Hanyang King plans to marry the princess back again! Do you still remember the grand occasion when the eldest daughter of the old Hanyang King, the lord of Hanoi, got married? Many people came to participate because of the old Hanyang King's face! Now that it is the old Hanyang King himself, God knows what tricks they can come up with!"
"Who said I won't watch it?
Conversations like this go on one after another. By the time the sun broke free of the horizon and scattered brilliant rays onto the earth, the streets and alleys of Chang'an City were already crowded with people.
Everyone saw a car carrying a big drum walking in the front, and on the car stood a heroic young man, he held a drumstick in his hand, and every time the drum fell, it made a knocking sound outward, and the chest of people couldn't help but resonate. Behind the car, there was also a team of soldiers in military uniforms, everyone holding spears in their hands, following the back of the car in a uniform step, striding towards the weighing.
Seeing such a scene early in the morning is really pleasing to the eye.
There are nine gates, and every gate is like this. The sound of drums, footsteps, all the sounds are surprisingly consistent. If it weren't for the fact that the sound was too loud and the direction it came from, it would have made people think that these voices were coming from a team of people!
Such an opening is shocking enough, and it also makes people have endless interest in this unique wedding.
Cui Pu got up early, and after wearing a new dress, he saw Guo Ziyi, Yu Chi Saburo and others rushing in. When he saw his well-dressed appearance, a group of men over half a hundred years old laughed about him.
"I can't see it, you're all this age, and you're still coquettish when you pack up! Although you can't compare to those young little Langjun, you must stand out from the crowd in our group of old bones!"
"That's nature. I've been trying my best to maintain my face for the past two years!" Cui Pu said triumphantly.
just praised him twice, and he really gave him a sigh!
Everyone burst into laughter, and they couldn't help but speak even more. However, jokes aside, they quickly cleaned up, and they hugged Cui Pu out of the county king's mansion and went to the Hejian county king's mansion.
That's right, today's place to pick up the bride is set at the Hejian County Palace. Just three years ago, Mu Jiaojiao had recognized the king of Hejian County as his father-in-law, and this matter was naturally approved by Mu You. In this way, Ah Bao's little lady naturally called Mu Jiaojiao Ah Niang.
A bearded groom, surrounded by a group of men of the same age, but still strong and imposing, rode to the bride's house.
Let the generals with great achievements in the DPRK and China be the prime ministers, and only Cui Pu can have the ability to order them.
However, soon the people who came to watch discovered another important event - look at it, the people who carried the sedan chair were actually the King of Hanyang, Zhao Guogong, and Marquis An Yuan!
My good boy!
Everyone couldn't help but gasp.
The general will be the prime minister, and the princes and princes of the younger generation will come to carry the sedan chair for the bride, and this honor is not even the princess of the court, right? Today's bride is really a big deal!
Mu Jiaojiao, who had already made up, listened to the girls talk about the grand occasion outside, and she couldn't help but bend the corners of her lips.
Although Cui Pu arranged it, she didn't know - that guy kept saying that he wanted to surprise her, so he really told everyone around him to keep his mouth shut and didn't reveal a word to her. She was also called up early this morning to dress up, only to know that he had arranged this play!
"Sister, don't be nervous. The eldest sister Mu Yi listened to the maid with a smile, and hurriedly patted her shoulder and smiled.
Mu Jiaojiao shook her head. "I'm not nervous. ”
"If you're not nervous, what are you doing with your hands?"
Mu Jiaojiao lowered her head, only to find that her hands had already crumpled a Jiaojiao handkerchief.
Her cheeks flushed.
is at this age, and he was just cooperating with Cui Pu to mess around, but why did he just start out, he was already in the state, and he was still nervous like this?
Mu Yiyi and Mu Yiyi sisters covered their lips and laughed.
"Actually, it's nothing, getting married, who can not be nervous about such a big thing? Not to mention that it has been almost 30 years since the last time. Mu Yiyi whispered, her eyes full of envy.
Give her a grand wedding, how many men in this world can do this?
After a short time, the bridegroom and his party arrived.
Liang Changshi in the palace of Hejian County was in charge, and it was only then that Cui Pu suddenly discovered that this person was also a hidden master! He was proficient in poetry and kung fu, and he actually stopped such a large group of leaders in all aspects as they were outside the door for half an hour.
However, in this half an hour, the wonderful words and swords, witty words, and the heroic posture of the veterans and young generals dancing with knives and guns made the onlookers feast their eyes.
It was easy to enter the palace of the county king, and a group of big men passed five levels and killed six generals, and it was easy to kill the bride's boudoir.
After being tossed by the big ladies and little ladies around the bride, Cui Pu was finally able to enter the bride's boudoir to perform the goose ceremony.
When he finally held Mu Jiaojiao's hand in his hand, Cui Pu's tears were about to fall. "Didn't we all have an experience, but why do I still find it so difficult this time?"
"Do you regret it?" asked Mu Jiaojiao softly.
"Of course not!" Cui Pu immediately shook his head.
The two of them came to say goodbye to their father, and now sitting on the top are the king of Hejian and Mu You. Gong died two years ago.
Although it was the second time to send Mu Jiaojiao to marry, Mu You was still so excited that she burst into tears. The king of Hejian was much calmer, but if he looked closely, he could see that his body was too straight, and the hands that were placed on the side were clutching the corners of his clothes. If you pull the corners of your clothes out of his palm, you must be soaking wet, right?
As usual, the words were still taught, but now the two fathers said them all by themselves.
Mu You and the King of Hejian County both said seriously, and Mu Jiaojiao also listened carefully. Then, she and Cui Pu both left.
When crossing the threshold, Mu Jiaojiao clearly heard Mu You whispering, "Don't cry." How unlucky is it to cry on a happy day?"
"Who said I cried? I didn't cry, your eyes are wrong!" the king of Hejian immediately responded, his thick nasal voice was not convincing at all.
Mu Jiaojiao almost couldn't help laughing. Cui Pu in front of him is not much better.
The two of them went out of the Hejian County Palace, where Mu Jiaojiao temporarily lived. Although she had already known from the mouths of the maids that Cui Pu's battle today was huge, she couldn't help but gasp when she saw those familiar faces again.
"You're playing too much, aren't you?" she whispered to Cui Pu.
"I'm old, I'm willful, can't I?" Cui Pu said.
Mu Jiaojiao was speechless.
got on the sedan chair with the support of the maid, and immediately heard a voice next to him shouting: "Get up the sedan chair, lift the curtain!"
Immediately, the sedan chair was steadily lifted. Immediately, Mu Jiaojiao noticed that the curtains on the front and back of the sedan chair were actually lifted high - this sedan chair was actually specially made, unlike the ordinary sedan chair that was made of wood on three sides except for the soft cloth in front, it was hung down on all four sides of the soft cloth, and it was specially made to expand and contract freely. Now after that, the maids in front and behind answered the call, and the curtain went up, so that Mu Jiaojiao, who was sitting inside, had no cover, which could not only see the people around her clearly, but also let the people see her clearly.
Mu Jiaojiao panicked for a moment, and a flush involuntarily appeared on her face.
Cui Pu couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw his wife's charm, so he said loudly: "My Cui's wife is not an ordinary woman. I want everyone to know that you are the one who will be with me in this life, and I want everyone to remember your face!"
That's why he designed this palanquin.
Mu Jiaojiao heard it in her ears, and her heart couldn't help but warm, so she gradually released the tension in her heart, and slowly put down the fan in her hand, and let out a light smile at the people around her.
"Wow!"
There was another exclamation from the crowd.
"The bride is so beautiful!"
One person couldn't stop screaming, and everyone followed suit.
Although she is no longer young, her beauty has long been beyond the age limit, it is a pleasing and otherworldly beauty, which makes people feel comfortable and tight just by looking at her, and can't help but stare at her again and again.
Rusi's shocking lineup is only worthy of such a beauty.
After receiving the people, Cui Pu and his party did not directly take the people back to their mansions, but drove around Chang'an City on horseback. This time, what he earned was not a small circle, but a big circle, which was even bigger than Peng Zhang's big circle back then!
When you walk up Suzaku Street, you will see a neat shelf on one side of the street. There are many kinds of food on the shelves, and people are dazzled to see them.
Cui Pu saw Liu San and the others who were already old in the crowd.
However, I don't know if it's because of the perennial work in the field, although most of his hair is already white, Liu San's movements are extremely agile, and his voice is even louder. I only heard him shout: "Today, the people of Tianchang County came to congratulate Cui Xianzun and his wife on their wedding." These foods are all sweet potato products that we have researched in Tianchang County over the years, and they are guaranteed to be full of color, flavor, and flavor! Today, these things don't cost money, everyone is allowed to eat, and they are enough!"
On the other side of the street, there is a large vat at a distance. Standing next to each vat stood several people wearing homemade masks and gloves invented by Mu Jiaojiao.
Qiu Shan and Cao Shu stood in front of them, shouting loudly: "In order to congratulate the old Hanyang King and Princess on their wedding, we are here to donate medicine today on behalf of the people of Lingnan." These medicines were prescribed by the princess back then, and everyone can drink them to cure them when they are sick, and they can strengthen their bodies even if they are not sick. You can come and get the medicine according to your needs, one bowl per person, and it will be distributed from now until dark!"
Not only Suzaku Street, but also every street they walked on, both sides of the road were full of people from Yangzhou and Lingnan.
And as the sedan chair walked by, it began to stage various plays that would be staged at the end of the year, and its variety was much richer than that of the day when the eldest lady got married.
As they spent a whole day walking around Chang'an City, Chang'an City was also lively all day long.
It was around until dusk, and the sedan chair finally returned to the Junwangfu Villa in Fanchuan Villa - what everyone called the old Junwangfu.
Mu Jiaojiao got off the sedan chair, and saw Da Lang Jun, Erlang Jun, Xiao Lang Jun, the eldest lady, the little lady and Ah Bao, as well as his daughter-in-law and son-in-law, grandchildren and grandchildren, and everyone shouted in unison: "Congratulations to the princess returning home!"
Mu Jiaojiao's eyes were hot, and tears almost fell uncontrollably.
Fortunately, Cui Pu held her hand in time.
Mu Jiaojiao glanced up at him. "It's not time to hold hands yet. ”
"Whatever! today we are married, so what should we do, I have the final say!" Cui Pu said triumphantly, then threw aside the red silk sent by the bride, and generously took Mu Jiaojiao's hand and pulled her into the door.
When everyone saw this, they were all surprised.
Hurriedly all went inside, all the staff were ready, and just as they were about to salute, they suddenly heard a shout outside: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!"
Everyone hurriedly turned around, and saw King Yong, who had been named the crown prince, that is, the original King of Fengjie County, striding in.
"Today, Lone is on the order of his father to marry the old King of Hanyang and the princess. When I walked in, I heard him smile.
Now the crown prince is marrying them, and he is still at the behest of a saint! This naturally adds another layer of luster to this family business.
Naturally, everyone can only agree happily.
Hurriedly sent the prince to the upper seat, Mu Jiaojiao and Cui Pucai worshiped again surrounded by everyone, and then the maid wanted to lead Mu Jiaojiao to the new house. Cui Pu was still reluctant, so he was ridiculed by Guo Ziyi and others: "It's all old husbands and wives, so you can't bear to be separated?" Come on, come on, today is your big day, our brothers are rare to get together again, you must accompany us to have a good drink!"
"Drink and drink. I'm happy today, and I'll be with you to the end!" Cui Pu immediately responded boldly.
"Yes! That's what you said!"
Guo Ziyi is also very happy.
This night, Cui Pu must have come back drunk. Although he had used antidote medicine and taken a bath, the smell of alcohol on his body was still very strong. And as soon as he entered the new house, he rushed to Mu Jiaojiao's side, holding her with both hands and refusing to let go.
"Lady, my good lady, we can be regarded as married!
"Happy, but also tired. Mu Jiaojiao said.
"I'm so tired, but I think I'm still happier. Cui Pu smiled stupidly and shook her desperately, "You say, do you like this wedding I gave you?"
"Loved it. Mu Jiaojiao nodded.
He put his heart into it, she knew it.
"Hahaha, if you like it!" Cui Pu was even happier when he heard this, and couldn't help but rub it on her again.
"King Jun, you and the princess haven't drunk the wine yet!" Xi Niang stood on the side, reminding helplessly.
"Oh, by the way, there's also a combination of wine!" Cui Pu woke up from a dream and hurriedly asked someone to bring the wine glass. He and Mu Jiaojiao drank a cup and drank it hand in hand. It's just that as soon as the wine was entered, Cui Pu threw the cup, held Mu Jiaojiao down, sealed her lips with his lips, and crossed the wine in his mouth to her mouth, and also crossed the wine in her mouth by the way.
"Haha, this is called a joint wine! You have me, I have you!" The old man who had done bad things was like a child, and he was proud of his high spirits.
The bride on the side was already stunned.
Mu Jiaojiao waved her hand helplessly. "All of you go down!"
Xi Niang also knew that the old county king would not play his cards according to the rules, so she hurriedly bowed down and retreated with a room full of maids, leaving enough time for the couple to live together.
Without waiting for anyone to leave, Cui Pu had already hugged Mu Jiaojiao again.
Mu Jiaojiao was entangled by him uncomfortably. "Can you let me go first?"
"Don't!" Cui Pu is willful to the end today. He hugged her, kept pecking and kissing her face, kissed her, and said two words, "Lady, I like you, I like you the most! I will hold you like this for the rest of my life, and I will never let go!"
"Okay, then you can hold it like this!" Mu Jiaojiao had no choice but to let him go.
Cui Pu is a talker.
Twenty years later, Leyou was on the plain.
The cool breeze of the night blows in the face, bringing a slight coolness.
Cui Pu tightened the big puff on his body, and then looked at the woman who was wrapped in his arms: "Is it cold?"
"It's not cold. Mu Jiaojiao shook her head, raised her head and smiled at him, "On the contrary, it's very warm." ”
"That's nature. Your husband and I have always been your human flesh heater, and I have always been very qualified!" Cui Pu raised his chin proudly, as if this was a very proud thing.
Seeing this, Mu Jiaojiao couldn't help but smile lightly, and then reached out to rub his face: "Hey, you're old and ugly." ”
"Yes, you're old, but you're not ugly. Cui Pu nodded and kissed her lightly on the forehead.
A sweet smile spread on the corner of Mu Jiaojiao's lips.
He leaned on him, and the two of them shared a large cooster, and together they looked up at the stars in the sky overhead.
"I have heard that when a person dies, he becomes a star in the sky and continues to shine on the people of the world. Then you say, when we die, will we fly into the sky together, as always, shoulder to shoulder, shining side by side with our children?" Cui Pu suddenly asked in a low voice.
"Definitely. Mu Jiaojiao fixed his head.
Cui Pu also smiled.
He suddenly yawned widely.
"Lady, I'm so sleepy. I want to sleep. ”
"Then sleep, I'm sleepy too. Mu Jiaojiao said.
"Hmm. ”
Cui Pu nodded, retracted the big again, leaned his head on her shoulder, and slowly closed his eyes.
Mu Jiaojiao also leaned back, and the whole person leaned on his chest. Feeling the thumping sound in his chest getting slower and slower, slower and slower, he slowly closed his eyes.
