Chapter 240: The Newlyweds
If Zhang Binggui is now a minister of justice, his work is really quite good. [】 His wife Liu came here this time and sent a gold-inlaid coral headband, a second-class east bead inlaid, a gold-inlaid blue-gold square-sacred hanging piece, a dark-colored and scary-patterned small beads, a gold-inlaid coral top circle, and two second-class east beads. In addition, a pair of thirteen-pack boxes with carved lacquer, colored brocade and icing patterns, a set of official kiln tea sets and a mother-of-pearl money cabinet.
Of course, Zhang Linqi's wedding would not forget his subordinates. Although Zhang Linqi's Zhen and Xichang Anime were too many people, they could not come all, but Zhang Linqi also specifically instructed Liu Dabangchui to explain that each person would add five dishes in the afternoon, and each person would give ten taels of silver to be happy together! If he ordered this, many towns and Xichang Anime would also be happy. I wish their general a happy night in bridal chamber!
The general's mansion was bustling and the general's mansion was crowded with people outside. Can the scene be less enthusiastic when the generals got married? And Zhang Linqi also followed the folk wedding ceremony, carrying a large sedan chair eight times, opening the road with a ceremonial guard, greeting the bride in a sedan chair, and leading the door with lion dance.
Yang Sichang was appointed by Emperor Chongzhen as the groom's bride's bride's envoy, and went to the girl's house with Zhang Linqi. Since Fang Jianping had always lived in the General's Mansion, there was no girl's house. In fact, after leaving the General's Mansion, he walked around outside and returned to the General's Mansion.
Zhang Linqi sat on the black hooves and stepped on the snow, with his sides facing the sky, and behind him was a sedan chair carried by eight people. The sedan chair was covered with red curtains and green covers, his face was embroidered with auspicious patterns of dragons and phoenixes, and colorful silk fringes hung from the four corners.
There are five cars in the sedan chair, which is in accordance with the grandfather's style. There are three cars in the sedan chair, and the female carries a wedding. Tang Yanyan, who is temporarily guest-starred, rides in one car, and the other two car sits in the sedan chair. When the bride comes back, the bride sits in the main car. There are two cars in the blue car, which are mainly cared by men who can't ride horses.
After walking around Dongcheng District, the wedding team returned to the General's Mansion with the envious eyes of several ordinary people. At this time, Fang Jianping had already been dressed up. He was wearing a light red gold woven yarn and persimmon-shaped phoenix short shirt, decorated with tangled saw lotus pattern flowers, shoulders and sleeves woven gold as cloud shoulders, and embroidered colorful skirts under him, covered with red phoenix robe, and a shiny robe with various auspicious patterns on his shoulders. He was wearing a small waist that was not worthy of grasping, tied with tassel streamers, embroidered shoes, and a phoenix crown decorated with pearls and jade silk pendants. He walked to the door with Tang Yanyan.
According to the rules, the bride did not see the sky before she arrived at her husband's house, and her feet could not touch the ground. Therefore, Fang Jianping's head was covered with a red veil. As soon as the sedan chair was in the sedan, the old mothers were busy sprinkling grain beans into the sack pieces that were spread to the lobby. Grain beans are plants with many children, which also means more blessings. As for sack pieces, it is because bags are homophones, for auspiciousness, and to ensure that the newcomers can complete the important task of inheriting the family line.
Next to the "red carpet" made of sacks is placed in the yard next to the "red carpet" made of sacks, there are tables of heaven and earth, and there are big buckets, rulers, scissors, mirrors, abacus and scales. This is commonly known as "Nine Certificates". It means that you can tell how much food there is, how much cloth there is, how good the clothes are, what the appearance is, whether the accounts are clear, etc.
When Fang Jian put the sedan chair in, the drummer went out with a blow and whispered, and then went out for a walk and returned to the general's mansion. However, the meaning of coming back this time was different. He had officially arrived at the husband's house. Next was the formal ceremony of the bride and groom.
Since neither side had elders present, the entire ceremony was presided over by Yang Sichang. One worshipped the world and the other worshipped the high hall. Zhang Linqi and Fang Jianping turned to the empty chair on their heads and bowed again. "Honey and wife bowed each other!" The wedding girl held Fang Jianping and bowed to Zhang Linqi. Zhang Linqi received the gift and then bowed back. Fang Jianping bowed again, Zhang Linqi received the gift and returned the gift. There were four such people.
The wedding girl is also called "supporting guests" in the area of Fangcheng, Henan. The support guests should be smart and clever, and the hands and feet should be neat. It is taboo to support guests with the zodiac sign and the bride. If the bride is born in the rabbit, the dog cannot be used as a support guest, and the pig cannot be used as a support guest, etc.
These rituals were taught to Zhang Linqi by Mr. Chen, otherwise Zhang Linqi would have been quite difficult to remember. Because according to his understanding, the marriage ceremony in later generations and the current Ming Dynasty is still very different. For example, this ceremony is not a worship meeting between husband and wife. According to Mr. Chen, husband is the heaven of wife, so there is no reason to worship at the same time, and it is not a feud in Taoyuan.
In front of the gate with the big red letter of joy, there was a saddle. The mom sang a joy song and said, "The bride will cross the saddle and keep peace for the rest of her life."
Zhang Linqi opened the door, and a wedding girl supported Fang Jianping and stepped into the door. Fang Jianping stepped into the threshold with his front foot, and raised his back foot before he fell down. Another wedding girl squatted down quickly and pulled the saddle away with a brush. This is called "A strong woman doesn't marry her husband, and a good horse doesn't deserve a double saddle."
But this is a waste of time. Which man dares to be the second saddle of Zhang Linqi? After entering the door and sitting down, Zhang Linqi touched a pair of scissors again. "Crack!" "Crack!" The two of them cut off a strand of hair, looked at each other and smiled, their hands were put together, and the two strands of hair were also put together. "Born hair is a husband and wife, and they are both loving and loving. Happy entertainment is on the evening, Yan Wan is at a good time." This is called a strand of hair."
Then Zhang Linqi and Fang Jianping ate wedding wine in the bridal chamber, which is the ancient custom of mercy. mercy is a mercy. Cut a gourd into two mercy, and the bride and groom each took one for drinking, which is called a mercy. Therefore, performing a mercy not only symbolizes the unity of the couple, but also contains the meaning of letting the newlyweds share the joys and sorrows!
Of course, when Zhang Linqi's current status and status are now, it is okay to merge into one, but it is impossible to share the joys and sorrows. It is too late to enjoy happiness! However, now, the mercy of the mercy has long evolved into eating a cup of wine, that is, tied two wine glasses together with red colored threads, and after the newlyweds drink together, throw them under the bed to tell whether the harmony is. At this time, the wine glasses are not upheld or combined, which is called disharmony. If the wine glasses are upheld, it is called auspiciousness, symbolizing that the sky is overwhelming, the man is downheld, the yin and yang are harmonious, and the marriage is happy.
After drinking the glass of wine, Zhang Linqi and Fang Jianping threw it to the ground. By chance, the wine glass was just leaning and closing. At this scene, even Fang Jianping didn't care much about this set, his face showed a sweet smile! "Hehe, is it there? The wine glass is leaning and closing, which means that we two will live in harmony and happiness in the future!" Zhang Linqi blinked at Fang Jianping and said.
I believe that Fang Jianping has been taught by the official media over the past few days, and he should also know the meaning of raising one glass and closing one.
Unexpectedly, Fang Jianping didn't buy his account at all. In the eyes of others, he was the famous general of the country, the governor of the West Factory, and the Dinghai Shen Needle! But in her eyes, he was still the same Zhang Linqi who only knew how to do the experiment all day long. Everything had not changed!
"Go to you, you will be raising your eyes, so I won't raising them!" Fang Jianping said softly. What? Zhang Linqi heard the loud movement of his index finger and couldn't help swallowing. So, tonight, there will be an unexpected show? When Zhang Linqi's expression showed his eyes, Fang Jianping knew that Zhang Linqi was not thinking of anything serious. However, now the two have had a drink and a sedan chair. According to tradition, the two are already husband and wife, and can do such "unfair" things.
Thinking of the kind of thing I would do later, Fang Jianping felt that his body was a little hot, and his face was even more hot. I guess his face should be red at this moment! Fang Jianping looked up at Zhang Linqi and saw that he was smiling at her. Fang Jianping was big. In order to get rid of the current embarrassing situation, Fang Jianping pulled Zhang Linqi hard and said, "Everyone is eating outside, we are also going out as our masters."
"Affect your wife's orders," Zhang Linqi leaned over Fang Jianping's white little ears and said with a smile. "Good-mouthed and smooth-mouthed." Fang Jianping felt a strange thing when he heard Zhang Linqi calling his wife again, but then he thought that now that the two of them were married, wasn't he the legitimate wife for him? Thinking of this, Fang Jianping's little hand, which was originally going to twist him, finally turned into soft fingers and gently placed it in Zhang Linqi's wide palm, experiencing the temperature of the palm. The two walked out with their shoulders and holding hands.
At this time, the house outside the general's mansion was already very lively. Thinking about it, nearly a thousand people gathered together to have a banquet, and Zhang Linqi was treating guests again. The good wine and dishes came like flowing water, and no one was laughing and joy. Everyone was drinking and drinking vigorously.
But it is a little strange. So many people come to have wedding banquets, but no one dares to come in to make a wedding chamber. What a joke, who dares to make trouble for the new house of the General of Zhenguo? Is Taisui's head getting into trouble? Even Liu Dabangchui didn't dare. Even if others instigated him to enter, he shook his head honestly and said he didn't dare. Although he was a General of Zhenguo, he knew this kind of thing. Now is the time when the General of Zhenguo and the Chief Instructor are in love. Isn't it your own to make itchy when you go in? Whether it is the General of Zhenguo or the Chief Instructor who is angry, it is not something he can bear.
At most, Liu Dabangcui just stood two meters away from the door and glanced for a few times, listening for a while.
Not long after, Zhang Linqi and Fang Jianping came out with a smile and held hands. "Congratulations to General Zhenguo, and congratulate General Zhenguo!"
Seeing that the protagonist came out today, the guests cheered loudly. As for the small movements of the two holding hands, although they did not allow it to their secular concepts, since the other party was the general of the Zhenguo and the chief instructor of the West Factory, they all took it consciously. Even a leader like Yang Sichang, who smiled and would never say anything!
Since Zhang Linqi and Fang Jianping came out, it would come with it. It would be okay to make a fuss on the new house, and it would be okay to make a fuss on the wine table. So, after Zhang Linqi and Fang Jianping sat at the table in their hearts, it would come with it.
