183 Ancient Marriage Proposal

183 The marriage was mentioned again in ancient times

Last time, Ouyang Xinyu, who traveled from modern times to ancient times, wanted to go down the cliff where Shangguan Wan'er fell off the cliff and see if there was anything strange on the cliff. Xiao Cuiya was afraid that the tragedy of Miss Wan'er fell off the cliff and refused to help Ouyang Xinyu.

The two of them had eaten stinky tofu from under the East Bridge in Furong Town and returned home, and they happened to have dinner. After dinner, the two returned to Shangguan Wan'er's room.

"Xiao Cui, what I told you on the cliff this afternoon, how are you thinking about? Are you really planning not to help me?" After returning to the room, sitting next to the round table in the room, Ouyang Xinyu carefully begged Xiao Cuiya and asked.

"Miss Xinyu, Xiao Cui can help you with other things, but this matter is not discussed! If you must insist on acting alone, Xiao Cui will not only not help you, but will also report the matter to the master and his wife, so that you can't do it at all!" Faced with Ouyang Xinyu's plea to her, Xiao Cui refused selflessly. Moreover, she also warned Ouyang Xinyu that if she insisted on acting alone, she would report the matter to Mr. Shangguan and his wife.

"Xiao Cui, my good Xiao Cui, don't you do this! OK!" When Xiao Cui's girl said so utterly, Ouyang Xinyu immediately begged her like a coquettish.

"Miss Xinyu, when I was having dinner, I heard the maids in the mansion discussing that our Miss Wan'er's marriage was about to be settled! My son-in-law is the son of the Yang family, the richest man in Furong Town! Because the other party's family has a prominent family, Mr. Yang is also the head of a town in Furong Town. The son of the Yang family has been studying and literate since childhood and is also a handsome talent. The master and his wife will naturally be satisfied! You should think about how you should survive this disaster!" Suddenly, Xiao Cui's girl reminded Ouyang Xinyu seriously.

"What? Xiao Cui, don't scare me, why haven't I heard of this?" When Xiao Cui said that Shangguan Wan'er's marriage was about to be settled, Ouyang Xinyu asked her excitedly.

"Of course you haven't heard of it! There is a relative of a servant in the mansion who works as a slave in the Yang Mansion. He heard the rumor and came to the mansion. Everyone knows it! I also know it when I was dinner today and heard the girls in the mansion discussing privately!" Xiao Cui replied to Ouyang Xinyu.

"What did you say? Everyone in the government official knows about this?" After hearing Xiao Cuiya say this, Ouyang Xinyu suddenly widened her eyes. She asked Xiao Cuiya in disbelief.

"Yes, everyone should know this except you!" Xiao Cuiya pointed at Ouyang Xinyu with her finger and replied to her with great certainty.

"Then what you mean is that even the master and the wife know? Why didn't you hear them tell me during dinner?" Ouyang Xinyu still asked Xiao Cuiya unwillingly.

"Miss Xinyu, don't forget that this was in our ancient times! What had not happened yet can only be regarded as a rumor. Moreover, this matter is related to Miss Wan'er's lifelong event in our mansion. How could the master and his wife tell you in a silence!" Facing Ouyang Xinyu's appearance that she didn't believe it even if she beat her to death, Xiao Cuiya reminded her.

"That means that as long as the other party comes to the mansion to formally propose marriage, the master and wife accept the betrothal gift, will this matter be done?" Ouyang Xinyu stopped arguing with Xiao Cui Yatou, and she suddenly asked Xiao Cui Yatou.

"Miss Xinyu, our ancient wedding procedures focused on the 'six rituals'. That is,: to invite relatives, ask for names, ask for titles, ask for elections, invite appointments, and welcome brides. Due to geographical differences, different places are very different, but in essence, the six rituals have been used together for thousands of years. The wedding in the Qing Dynasty also implemented its intentions, which were divided into three stages: discussing marriage, getting engaged, and getting married." Xiao Cuiya replied to her.

"Xiao Cui, I know that this 'welcome' means marrying a wife. What does it mean to ask for a name, Najib, Najib, Najib, and asking for a date?" Ouyang Xinyu didn't understand what the "Six Les" meant, so she asked Xiao Cuiya in confusion.

"Acquiring a marriage means proposing a marriage; asking a name means asking the other party's birth date and horoscope; Naji means getting engaged; accepting a marriage means giving a bride gift; asking for a date means telling the woman first after confirming the wedding date and obtaining the woman's consent." Xiao Cuiya replied to Ouyang Xinyu.

"It's so complicated! Why do I still feel that I can't understand?" Hearing Xiao Cuiya's explanation of "Liu Li", Ouyang Xinyu said that she still couldn't understand it. She tilted her head and looked at Xiao Cuiya helplessly.

"Okay, I'll explain it to you in detail again! The 'Six Lessons' I mentioned to you is the procedure for the wedding of ancient Han people. The Qing Dynasty wedding implemented its intention and was divided into three stages: discussing marriage, getting engaged, and getting married. Discussing marriage means choosing a partner, which is equivalent to a lottery and asking for names; engagement means establishing a marriage contract between a man and a woman, divided into small deciding and big deciding. Small deciding is equivalent to Najib, and big deciding is equivalent to Nazheng; getting married is holding a wedding, which is equivalent to welcome the bride. Miss Xinyu, do you understand this? " Seeing Ouyang Xinyu being confused, Xiao Cuiya had to explain it in detail to her again and say to her. And asked her if she understood it?

"Your wedding in the Qing Dynasty is similar to our modern times. Why is it so simple? There are only three stages?" This time, Ouyang Xinyu understood it clearly. She knew that the wedding in the Qing Dynasty was divided into three stages, which was too simple! This means that as long as the man and the woman settled the marriage, they would get married soon? This is too scary, too scary! Ouyang Xinyu muttered and asked Xiao Cuiya.

"It sounds simple, but in fact it is not as simple as you think! Some details are still very complicated and cumbersome!" Xiao Cuiya explained to her in the face of Ouyang Xinyu's muttering.

"What if I don't agree with this marriage? Can I stop this marriage?" Suddenly, Ouyang Xinyu asked Xiao Cuiya with whispers.
