Indeed, when Ishihara Hai returned to the county government office at night, it was almost midnight. He hesitated, worried that Shi Jinrou had already rested. But after entering the back house, he found that the gate of his daughter's yard was still open and the room was bright.

With the lights on, he entered Shi Jinrou's yard.

After hearing the news that Anning County was mainly coming to Yi'an, Ishihara Hai calculated the time and said, "It's time. According to the news, Princess Anning should have arrived in Yi'an on the seventh day of the 10th. After the ceremony, I will

Arrange welcome matters.”

Shi Jinrou said, "At that time, my father and I will go to greet you."

"Okay, it's okay to get to know the princess. OK, it's getting late, Xiaorou can rest quickly." After saying that, Ishihara Haka got up and walked out. As soon as he arrived at the door, he suddenly stopped again.

After walking, he turned around and asked in confusion:

"Xiao Rou, how did you get this news? Has the imperial court's official letter arrived?"

Shi Jinrou said the truth: "It was the news sent by Manager Zhao from Yuanlai Inn."

Ishihara Hai was even more surprised and asked, "How did he know? Who is he?"

Shi Jinrou continued to explain: "Dad, his boss is in the capital, and he is a close friend with General Ran. The person who sent the message said that General Ran entrusted them to notify me."

Ishihara nodded and muttered, "The county chief is here, the court should have a letter. Could it be that the princess was visiting privately this time? Alas, this Ran Yicheng is always so mysterious and mysterious in his work, and he doesn't know what he sells in the gourd.

What medicine!”

Ishihara Hai still muttered in confusion, while walking out of Shi Jinrou's room.

..............

On October 1st, the ceremony was held as scheduled!

Early in the morning, Shi Jinrou took Xiao Lian, Xiuhe and Gu's mother to take a carriage that she specially applied to Ishihara Hai for coming. Aquarius drove it to the dock by carriage.

Originally, Shi Jinrou wanted to take Ding Zhong there, but Ding Zhong was unwilling to participate in this lively scene. He also said that he would take care of the back house in the mansion and refused to leave. Shi Jinrou had to give up.

Shi Jinrou ordered Shuisheng to rush the carriage directly to Yuanlai Inn, because it was very close to the pier, and when they went to the pier to watch the ceremony, someone helped to take care of the carriage.

When the carriage arrived at Yuanlai Inn, Shi Jinrou and others got out of the car. Shi Jinrou took out a purse and gave it to the waiter who ran up to him, and told him to help take care of the carriage. Then, she took everyone to walk to the dock.

Mama Gu specially picked up a bench and a package from the carriage. Shi Jinrou smiled slightly, feeling quite pleased with Mama Gu's meticulousness and thoughtfulness.

Shi Jinrou had already learned the arrangement of the ceremony clearly from her father in advance. The ceremony was hosted in the name of Anzhou Prefecture, which was similar to the modern ceremony model. The biggest difference was that there was no "leader's speech", but there was

A notice written on red paper like a "big-character poster".

In order to express respect for Wu Yuehou and the Grandma, the Anzhou Prefect erected a stone tablet with the words "Yi'an Pier" written on it, and another "Songdes" was erected as a wall, with Wu Yue's book written on it.

The contributions of Hou and the Grand Lady to Yi'an were filled with praise. Of course, at the end of the inscription, he also praised the Duan family, saying that they were public but forgot about their own selfishness and were role models. Although Wu Yue Hou read it,

I felt a little unhappy, but the ceremony was so grand and lively, all of which were paid by the Duan family. For the sake of money, I no longer deliberately care about it.

As soon as the Si hour arrived, the ceremony began on time. The dragon and lion dance team came to the rostrum, and the marquis and the prefect gave the finishing touch to the dragon.

The finishing touch fell, and the red silk covered on the "Yi'an Pier" and the "Songdes" were lifted by Ishihara Hai and Duan's owner Duan Gang at the same time.

Immediately, firecrackers were ringing on the dock, and gongs and drums were clamoring. Amid the shouts and beatings and scoldings of the yamen runners, the dragon and lion dance performances officially began.

Shi Jinrou took Xiao Lian and others through the crowd, and sometimes she had to squeeze around with all her might.

Shi Jinrou reminded everyone not to get separated, and also instructed: "If you get separated, go to Yuanlai Inn to gather together. We will have lunch there at noon. I will treat you to the best! Let's watch the dragon boat performance together in the afternoon.

”

Xiao Lian, Xiuhe, Shuisheng and Mama Gu all nodded and smiled happily.

Shi Jinrou and others were shuttled through the crowd and finally arrived at a relatively empty place by the river. Although lions and dragons dance were not real, there were few people here, relatively quiet, and the terrain was slightly higher, so you can see it.

It went further, so Shi Jinrou asked everyone to stop here to watch the ceremony.

Mama Gu put down the bench and let Shi Jinrou sit down. She took out a bag of dessert and water bags from the package.

Shi Jinrou took the snack and separated from everyone, and said to Xiao Lian: "My mother and I are here to rest. You can go and watch the show. Don't forget to come back for a while."

Xiao Lian nodded and said, "Xiao Lian is not going to go anymore. Let me accompany the young master here and let Mom Gu go. Although she leaves the house almost every day, she just goes to the vegetable market to buy vegetables and has never been to the riverside. Today, she has never been to the riverside.

After finally coming, let Mom Gu play more.”

Shi Jinrou nodded and said, "This statement makes sense, then Mom Gu will go, Xiao Lian and I will wait for you here."

In order to prevent everyone from being humble, Shi Jinrou waved her hand and said firmly: "Okay, don't be humble anymore. The performance is over later. Go quickly."

Xiuhe was the first to agree, held Shuisheng's hand, greeted Gu's mother, and the three of them left happily.

Shi Jinrou sat for a while and saw Xiao Lian looking here with excitement on her face, looking at where she was, but she just didn't look at herself. So she spoke:

"Xiao Lian, there is something I want to ask you."

Xiao Lian turned his head, looked at Shi Jinrou with confusion, and said, "Young Master, please ask!"

"What do you think of Mr. Lu?"

Xiao Lian was stunned and immediately blushed and said, "Young Master Lu is kind and has no airs to you."

Shi Jinrou asked, "Is it just these?"
