Zhang Linqi started a thriving arrangement in the form of the Nine Lis. [】The first step is to adopt accompaniment: Simply put, after the man asked the matchmaker to propose marriage, the woman agreed to discuss marriage, and the man prepared a gift to go to the woman's house to propose marriage. This gift must be paid attention to, and it must be a geese. Why use geese as migratory birds to symbolize compliance with yin and yang? There is another meaning, saying that geese will lose their spouse and will no longer be in pairs for life, and will win their loyalty.

Of course, if there are no wild geese, it is not impossible to give one. But that would appear much inferior. Another point is that it is alive and it is taboo to use death. Because marriage is a festive thing, it is too unlucky to associate it with the word "death". Zhang Linqi gave four wild geese without frowning.

Although it is very difficult to get wild geese at this time, that is relatively speaking. It is not difficult for Zhang Linqi! To put it bluntly, except for the stars in the sky, everything else cannot be difficult for Zhang Linqi! Of course, some people are asking, didn’t Fang Jianping come alone? Other people’s wild geese are given to elders, who are her wild geese? Let me explain here that Zhang Linqi has actually solicited her opinions with Fang Jianping in advance on this matter. Is it necessary to do it?

However, Fang Jianping also thought it was fun, or he thought it was just like this. It was good to experience the ancient procedures three hundred years ago, so he asked Zhang Linqi to come and do it again. So there was a scene of sending four geese. The other was Tang Yanyan. Although she had a father, it was obvious that now the father and daughter are in conflict, and the geese cannot be sent. What should I do? It can be solved, because recently, Tang Yanyan had been adopted by Queen Zhou as her adopted daughter.

This is also the plot of Empress Zhou. After Princess Changping married into the general's mansion, she was alone and powerless. If she had one more sister, it would be much better. For this reason, Empress Zhou threw an olive branch to Tang Yanyan. Of course, there were also considerations in the candidates.

In addition to Princess Changping, Zhang Linqi has three more prospective wives. Zhang Qingci is definitely not good, both parents are good, and Fang Jianping is what Queen Zhou dares to think but not say. After all, this person is too big, and even if he accepts him as his adopted daughter, he feels wronged! In this way, Tang Yanyan meets the standards!

Queen Zhou didn't know that Tang Yanyan had his father, because Tang Yanyan's origin, except for a few people, no one knew Tang Yanyan's origin. Tang Yanyan lost her mother since childhood and felt that she was the adopted daughter of the empress of a country. With a mother, she happily agreed. So, Ma had a title and rewarded Princess Izumo. After all, she was the adopted daughter of Queen Zhou, so she couldn't be careless! But that's true. If Queen Zhou knew that her adopted daughter who went to the country, the saint of the White Lotus Sect, she had been upheld before to translate the Ming Dynasty, and I don't know how to think!

The second step is to ask the name. After the proposal, I asked the matchmaker to ask the woman's date of birth and name to prepare for the marriage ceremony. This step is not simple, because Zhang Linqi had to handle it four times within a month, so he invited four matchmakers at once, two official media and two folk matchmakers. But as the saying goes, if the boss is too much, he will capsize, and if the matchmaker is too much, he will bicker.

This is originally an enemy, and there are two official media outlets, which are licensed and are even more superior. Therefore, these four matchmakers are also competing secretly, but this is beneficial to Zhang Linqi. The four matchmakers all seemed to have taken big tonic pills, full of energy!

The third is Najib, who notified the woman the rituals of the good news of the marriage after asking the name and divination. It is also called "Encourt". This is relatively simple, and the matchmaker will be able to go back and forth. Especially the matchmaker who is Fang Jianping, because Fang Jianping has no parents in this world and lives in the General's Mansion, so the matchmaker left the General's Mansion and went around outside, entered the General's Mansion, and told Fang Jianping that it was over. It was not easy to do it!

The fourth is to enroll the chasing, that is, after the alliance is formed, the man's family sends the betrothal gift to the woman's family, which is a ritual during the marriage stage. It is also commonly known as the complete chasing or the large chasing. In the entire marriage process, this is the highlight. Generally, the man's family situation can be clearly understood from this aspect. Just like later generations, if the woman was dowrying a motorcycle when she got married in the 1990s, she would feel very proud.

After the millennium, you have to dowry a gear car to feel like you are doing well. Now this is the same in the Ming Dynasty. Of course, there is another thing to pay attention to, that is, take the number of betrothal gifts and take the single one. Otherwise, you will be a taboo!

On the day of giving gifts, the General's Mansion was also particularly busy. Although Fang Jianping, the first to set a date, was the so-called gift-giving, went out from the door of the General's Mansion, then took a walk outside and carried it in and moved into another yard. However, the steps were indeed not careless!

Zhang Linqi ignored all this kind of thing and left it to Butler Chen to take care of. Anyway, he was the butler of Zhang Bingfu before, and he was able to do such things. It was just dawn that the genius, butler Chen had already gotten up early, paced back and forth on the ground, and said in a nagging manner: "There are two pieces of gold satin everywhere, two pieces of makeup satin, two pieces of cloud satin, two pieces of woven gold silk, two pieces of green silk silk, two pieces of Lu silk, and two pieces of cloud silk. The fabric should be almost the same... No, I have to add velvet and makeup velvet..."

"I said, Lao Chen, it's enough, it's almost done. There's no need to be too complicated." Zhang Linqi happened to get up. Hearing the housekeeper Chen's nagging like a scripture, he couldn't help but smile. The betrothal gifts he prepared had already been piled up in two yards. How could he put the yard of Jianping at that time?

"Oh, General, you don't know anything about this. This is pretty ordinary!" Butler Chen has always obeyed Zhang Linqi's words, but this time it was rare to say "true!"

"If you follow the real house's rituals, satin, silk, silk, yarn, silk, machine-making, velvet, silk, silk cloth, brocade, and ten kinds of clothing are indispensable. Now the young people have prepared several types? Of course, you are worried about big things, just leave these small things to the young people." Seeing Zhang Linqi smacking his tongue with silk and satin on the ground, Housekeeper Chen had no time to talk to him, and it would be unlucky to go out if he went out late. Housekeeper Chen issued a banished order and drove Zhang Linqi out of the "provoking ghost". His appearance was even more caring than Zhang Linqi, the prospective groom.

'The ancients were troublesome to get married. Why do you open a ready-to-wear shop for so many silks and satin?' Zhang Linqi couldn't help but complain. If you really put on a big deal, it would be fine if you gave a silver bill of 100,000 taels of silver! But he also knew that if you really gave a silver bill, the effect would not be better than these things. Why? Because so many silks and satin would require more than a dozen large cages, which were very stylish, and what if you only gave one silver bill? There were only one cage, and it would be too shabby to go.

At the same time, he realized that some of the problems in later generations have been passed down since ancient times. For example, in Zhang Linqi's later generations, when he got married, the woman brought 32 quilts with her dowry. And there were many names, such as space cotton, duck down quilts, silk cotton quilts... all kinds of things. His family was small, and just to put down so many quilts, he used a lot of brains to put down so many quilts. So he laughed afterwards that he didn't have to buy quilts in his life, and it was more than enough.

Now that Zhang Linqi has seen so many silks and satin, he has realized it.

After half an hour, the huge gift-giving team finally set off. Thirty-two huts were held. At the beginning were four goose cages, two pairs of live gooses inside. Next were four wines for each two jars of wine. The wine jars were decorated with red painted oil and painted with blue dragon and phoenix patterns, and then there were two live carp. Then there were silk and ruler-headed clothes, gold and silver jewelry, and bedding, etc., and the four layers of red paint were painted with gold edges and other boxes, so the pedestrians could only guess each other.

After transferring half a capital, and escorting more than a dozen Western Factory players, this huge team returned. It is estimated that this trip will cause a huge sensation again. It is not because there are too many things, but because the groom to be the prospective groom is Zhang Linqi.

But after finally entering the General's Mansion and carrying all the things into Fang Jianping's yard, Fang Jianping was just as interesting as Zhang Linqi imagined. It was true that these were all the bride gifts Zhang Linqi had given to marry her!

However, after Fang Jianping was finished, only a light sentence was left: "After one-third of the things you wear, you will be rewarded with all the other things, so that everyone in the mansion can be divided." As soon as Fang Jianping said this, the servants in the general's mansion cheered and kept saying joy.

Next is the ceremony to invite the date of the betrothal gift, which is to choose the wedding date, prepare the gift to the girl's house, and obtain consent. This is nothing complicated, just take a look at it.

The ninth is a ceremonial welcome, which is the ceremony where the new son-in-law goes to the daughter's house to welcome him. This ritual is often the main procedure for the wedding, while the first five items are transitional etiquette.

On the third day of September, the General's Mansion was very lively. Anyone who knew Zhang Linqi or had a little familiar face came. Like Zhang Bing, Gao Qiqian, Wang Cheng'en, Sun Yuanhua, and Song Xuezhu all came in person. Anyway, the General's Mansion was large and he was not afraid of many people coming.

As for Zhang Linqi's fighters, they arrived early, such as Li Sicheng, Fang Wei, Zhou Momo and others. They were all the best in life! They are their old leaders, how could they not come early!

Even the officials and generals stationed outside, many of them sent people to give gifts. For example, Lu Xiangsheng, Cao Bianjiao, Tiger Minister, Jin Guofeng, etc., they sent people to give generous gifts. Of course, Zhang Linqi ordered Butler Chen to write down the feelings of these people one by one, and he would have doubled his heart at that time! Zhang Bing felt that he had a special relationship with Zhang Linqi, so in addition to being present in person, he also asked his wife Liu to come and add a box.

The so-called adding boxes is also a customary habit. When some friends are in good condition, if one wants to hold a wedding, the other will help buy some dowry to enhance your character. Of course, when another family wants to hold a wedding, it is the other company's turn to do its best. This kind of helping each other is also a good story.
