Chapter Ninety-Four: The Grand Wedding 2
One person has four positions, and there are positions from heaven to earth, such a young man is really rare in the world, and it is also a relatively rare behavior to see that the sedan chair is actually two.
The burden of gifts in the back, in addition to the normal silk and satin, is left with boxes of gold and silver jewelry, and those who know the goods found that only the two boxes of gold and silver reached two million taels, which requires much money to show off like this.
More than seven miles of road, walked for an hour to Anfu, this was arranged by Yu Shupeng, beating gongs and drums all the way, attracting passers-by to stop and watch, this time Zilin can be regarded as out of the limelight.
The first one to pick up An Yanran, this is to give face to the old princess,
There was also a jubilant mood in front of the Anfu, although it was the first time Zilin came, but he was a golden immortal, and the whole Anfu was clear at a glance as soon as the divine thought came out.
Anfu saw the welcoming procession coming, and immediately someone went in to report it, and found that the family members in the courtyard began to line up, arranged three checkpoints, and then the housekeeper brought people to receive the gifts.
The Qixi personnel welcomed Zilin into the door, stopped the best men such as Xiaobai, Huzi, Zhenli and Ziwei outside the door, and waited for Zilin to come to the first level, and found that these people were waiting for his arrival with pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
According to custom, the groom must write a poem or a splendid article, must show that he is knowledgeable, and it is a festive content to pass, and not let Xiaobai these groomsmen enter the door for fear that these people will remind the new aunt.
Fortunately, Zilin used to love reading novels and remembered a few festive poems, so he didn't even hold a pen and directly used his mind to suck up the ink, which turned into a poem in the air and fell on the paper, causing a cheer from Anfu's family and relatives and friends.
The Xixi staff read aloud the poems written by Zilin: The good couple worships the jade hall and competes to see the jade girl with the fairy. The banquet is drunk, and the head of the Huaguo building is Luan Fengxiang.
It caused everyone to applaud again, this is to inspect the groom's writing, Zilin finished writing in a very stylish manner, and it was very appropriate and festive, and naturally this pass was passed.
The old princess who was chatting with An Yanran in the boudoir in the backyard saw it clearly with her senses, and then said to the people in the house: "Zilin, this kid has behaved well, he didn't hesitate at all, and Wencai is good." ”
An Yanran's mother and herself also saw clearly with their divine senses, but with the old princess here, they didn't have the share of the two of them to speak first, but they saw that Zilin was indeed a talent, and there was no resistance from the previous lord, which seemed very natural.
In fact, it's not that Zilin doesn't resist, but he thinks that the marriage customs are very fresh, and before he faces An Yanran, it is estimated that he should be more at a loss when he faces An Yanran.
Then the housekeeper put Xiaobai and others in, Zilin also walked to the second level, in front of the family is a large copper cylinder, is the kind of oversized cylinder that large households store water for fire prevention, in order to increase the weight, the cylinder is full of iron sand, the two should add up to nearly 10,000 catties, according to the general customs, it is more than 1,000 catties of water inside, the cylinder is very large, and the outside is smeared with oil and slippery without leaving hands, not to mention, a person can not be surrounded at all, can only be lifted with mental power, mainly to examine the strength of the cultivator's mental power.
In general, people in the later stage of Jindan can lift up to two thousand catties is great, on such an occasion, if it is successfully lifted, people will applaud, if it can't be lifted, the relatives and friends of the woman's family will applaud, in fact, it is not really to examine a person's cultivation, mainly to make the groom ugly, to win a smile from relatives and friends, and to be happy.
The An family knew that Zilin's cultivation was superb, and it was not easy to make him ugly, so they deliberately cleaned up the water and replaced it with iron sand, and the original vat of one or two thousand catties became close to ten thousand catties.
After the explanation of the Qi Xi personnel, Zilin thought to himself, just want to stump me, you also underestimate the golden immortals of the Holy Light Realm, I am still afraid of this when I move a mountain just like playing.
So I walked to the vat and turned around three times, and looked up again, the relatives and friends of the An family thought that there was a good show this time, who came up with the bad idea to replace the water with iron sand, so talented, the new aunt estimated that he would definitely blush his face and couldn't lift it, and he could be happy to think about it.
Zilin saw the people around him with a good show, smiled, and then the 10,000-pound vat flew up with his smile and landed steadily on the rockery in the yard.
Everyone didn't take a breath of relief, and then saw the huge rockery top of the vat also flew up, the original breath that was not relieved, now it can't be slowed down, one by one's eyes are glaring, their faces are red, they are afraid that they will fall down as soon as they are discouraged.
In this way, there was still water dripping on the rockery, circling around the top of everyone's heads, falling back to its original place steadily, and the vat automatically flew back to the family, and everyone breathed evenly, and then burst into warm applause.
It's just divine power, everyone thought to themselves, and only the golden immortals of the Holy Light Realm could do it, and several women in the boudoir were stunned and didn't speak.
This level has also been successfully passed, the third level is called Fortune and Treasure, an open wooden box is erected on a shelf, a red rope is tied in the middle of the shelf beam, and a bell the size of a fingernail is tied to the red rope.
Qi Xi said that the new aunt can stand 100 meters away from gold, silver and other coins to hit the copper bell, how old the woman is to hit a few times, the money thrown out is not allowed to be picked up, until the number is enough, the money that falls in the box will be taken away as the woman's private money with the dowry, and the money on the ground will go to the woman's family.
In fact, this level is to see if the new aunt has money, think about it, standing a hundred meters away and hitting a copper bell the size of a fingernail, how much money do you have to throw.
Zilin stood a hundred meters away, took out a handful of ordinary spirit stones and a top-grade spirit stone and put them together, closed his eyes and threw them out, only to hear the "ding" sound of the copper bell being hit, there were more than a dozen ordinary spirit stones on the ground in front of the wooden box, and the top-grade spirit stone that hit the copper bell fell at the bottom of the wooden box.
An Yanran is eighteen years old this year, so Zilin scattered eighteen spirit stones, and every time a spirit stone fell into the box, now there are eighteen top-grade spirit stones in the wooden box that are crystal clear and shining with an attractive light, and there are more than two hundred ordinary spirit stones on the ground, which is more than two million taels of silver.
Everyone was stunned, they had never seen a rich person who had ever seen more than two million dollars, and it was a spirit stone, and the most wonderful thing was that there were eighteen top-grade spirit stones in the wooden box, worth 180 million taels of silver, and the woman had nearly 200 million private money before she passed the door.
Everyone was speechless, thinking, are you here to welcome your relatives, or are you here to show off your wealth.
An Yanran was completely relieved, originally heard that Zilin was unwilling to marry her, and it was the lord of the country who forced him to agree, but judging from Zilin's performance today, this is not the case at all.
If he was resistant, he didn't need to pass the three levels seriously, just a perfunctory one, and now he is not only very serious, but also very attentive, and he sent so much money to her without going through the door.
An Yanran's parents led the way in front, and An Yanran's four brothers used the Taishi chair to carry her out of the boudoir wearing auspicious clothes and a red hijab and came to Zilin.
An Yanran and Zilin said goodbye to their parents together, and then came to the gate, Zilin carried her into the sedan chair, and the team of An's wedding followed behind the sedan chair, and then the gongs and drums were noisy, and the team went straight to the squire's house.
The Shilang Mansion is not as thoughtful as the An family's preparations, first, Xia Wan's uncle came in a hurry, and second, there are not many people in the Shilang Mansion at all, unlike An Yanran's family.
But there are still three levels, but it's just a show, and a total of more than a dozen people can't put on a big scene.
The first level is Ji Yunxue and the three maids holding pen, ink, paper and inkstone, Zilin is still acting as if he is in the An family, but the poem is different, he writes: Like a dream, the eyes cut the autumn water, and the aspiring husband is the leader. should also share the burden of life, and boundless love will always be reincarnated.
Xia Wan is not exempt from vulgarity, Shen Nian has been paying attention to the movements here, and seeing the poems written by Zilin, although they feel simple and easy to understand, they do not show a high level of culture, but they speak to their hearts.
The second level is to put water in the tank, Zilin didn't show off, and put it back in its original place after lifting it, so as not to have to trouble people to move it away.
In the third level, he directly repeated the scene in Anfu, the money on the ground was deliberately given to Uncle Xia Wan, although her uncle was incompetent, but he must be the only living elder in her family, this money is nothing at all.
Zilin saw Xia Wan's uncle and aunt come to him, but Xia Wan was about to come over by herself without anyone lifting her, so he asked Xiaobai and the four of them to carry Xia Wan to the sedan chair, and Zilin carried her into the second sedan chair.
Her uncle and aunt didn't prepare any dowry, she looked very shabby, and the dowry team in Anfu obviously looked down on her, but Zilin knew that as long as she had Xia Wan, she was worth more than anything else, and she had more face than anything.
The welcoming team rushed all the way back to the Hou Mansion, the entire Qinglong Street was surrounded by water, and the square in front of the main building of the Hou Mansion was crowded with people, fortunately Yu Shupeng was a monk in the late Jindan period, otherwise the people in the square would not hear him at all.
Yu Shupeng read out the congratulatory message of the lord of the country, and then introduced the social value created by Zilin and his current position, which attracted a lot of discussion among the guests and friends, more than 6,000 people came today, of which more than 4,000 were students, and these people who listened to it were enthusiastic, because no matter how powerful Zilin was, he was still their little junior brother, and with this relationship, they felt that their faces were bright.
Then the witness Hua Tianbo spoke, and praised Zilin to the sky.
Then, Dean Hua, as an elder, thanked everyone for coming.
The wedding enters the most important part of the chapel, and there is nothing special about worshipping heaven and earth, and the three newlyweds all begin to worship heaven and earth.
When it came to the second worship hall, it was a bit special, Zilin neither found someone to replace his parents, nor did he put the spiritual seat to worship, but there were two empty chairs, so they worshiped empty chairs in the second worship hall.
The husband and wife worship each other, which is also more special, Zilin and An Yanran worship each other first, and then worship Xia Wan.
Yu Shupeng announced that the newcomers would be sent to the cave room, and the master bedroom on the second floor was not regarded as a cave room, according to Yu Shupeng's discussion, a cave room was arranged on the east and west sides of the master bedroom.
An Yanran's cave room is on the east side, Xia Wan's is on the west side, Zilin first sent An Yanran into the cave room, and then came out and sent Xia Wan into the cave room.
Then Zilin came outside and went to the General's Pavilion with relatives and friends to feast and celebrate.
After Zilin set the fastest construction speed in the capital, he once again set a record for the largest number of wedding banquets, with more than 6,000 people gathered in the General's Pavilion, and more than 100 people in the back kitchen worked hard for a day before they were ready.
Lingguo is used as a snack, Lingguo wine is enough, the specialty dishes of the famous chefs in Beijing and the special dishes of Shiweitian together form 38 hot and cold dishes, which completely detonate the taste buds of the guests, even after many years, when it comes to Zilin's wedding banquet, the people who participate in the banquet still have endless aftertaste.
