At the end of Shen Shi, it was time for snacks in Huan Mansion.

Yongxiu Hou Huanyi and his wife Wang came to the table first, followed by the eldest son Huan Suzhi and the eldest daughter Huan Xianrong. However, Xu Zongwen, who was a guest in Huan Mansion, was still missing.

"Quickly go to the other courtyard to invite Mr. Xu to come over for dinner. Don't miss the time." Wang called the servant waiting outside the hall.

"No!" The servant arched his hands, turned around and walked towards the other courtyard.

Huan Yi tilted his head, looked at Wang and said: "Xu Langjun is deeply appreciated by His Majesty, and now he has been granted the title of general and has become the commander of the 18th Battalion of the Forbidden Army. Such a favor has never been seen or heard of before! You should

Please go down and tell the people in this house to serve Mr. Xu Lang carefully and not to disobey his wishes, lest they make him unhappy, which would not be beautiful."

Mrs. Wang nodded gently and responded: "I'll spare you the trouble. I've already given instructions to my servants. My husband can rest assured."

"That's good. Everything in the house is taken care of by good people, so I can rest assured."

When Huan Xianrong saw that Xu Zongwen had not arrived, he frowned slightly and complained: "Since you are a general in the Northern Campaign and have been in the army for a long time, how could you forget the time so much?"

"Yao Ji, don't say anything! Xu Langjun has been staying in the house for many days and is busy with military affairs, so he has not asked you to get married. But you will eventually get married. It's just a family banquet at this time. How can you complain?

, What's wrong with your words?" Huan Yi said seriously, his words were quite harsh.

Yao Ji is the diminutive of Huan Xianrong.

Huan Xianrong lowered his head and did not dare to refute. He just replied softly: "Aye, my daughter knows."

Huan Yi looked at the pair of children and explained carefully: "Xu Langjun is a prominent figure in the world. Your Majesty has a keen eye for pearls. It is a great gift for you to issue an edict to marry Xu Langjun to my Huan family! Don't say it is for me.

People and you, even my father and your mother-in-law, must be well received and must not be rude, do you understand?"

Huan Suzhi raised his hands and replied loudly: "My son has memorized all my father's words. My son understands. From now on, I must pay attention and be more respectful to Xu Langjun!"

"My daughter will also be very respectful to Mr. Xu Lang and will never be scornful!" Huan Xianrong lowered his head and clasped his bare hands casually. Just as he put his hands down, he looked up and saw the sound of footsteps approaching from far away, and soon a pair of feet

appeared in the field of vision.

Huan Xianrong Zhen slowly raised his head, and his eyes caught a tall man in white clothes and a crane cloak.

The man's bronze skin is very different from the young men in Jiankang City who are immersed in Jiangnan makeup. His sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, his tall and straight posture, and a heroic and masculine aura are blowing towards his face!

The white brocade clothes and the bronze skin complement each other, embodying the man's temperament in every detail, making people look sideways and want to take a closer look.

Xu Zongwen stepped forward and saluted: "Xiao has met my father-in-law and my mother-in-law."

In the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the word "adult" refers to the elders in the family, and has no direct relationship with the title of officials.

Huan Yi and Wang smiled and said in unison: "Zong Wen, please forgive me!"

Xu Zongwen was not polite, turned around and exchanged a few words with his uncle Huan Suzhi, ignoring Huan Xianrong.

When Huan Xianrong heard Xu Zongwen calling her parents as father-in-law and mother-in-law in front of her, her favorable impression of Xu Zongwen suddenly dropped a lot. When Xu Zongwen entered the hall, her impression immediately fell to the bottom.

Frivolous, dissolute, and sweet-talking! This is Huan Xianrong's evaluation of Xu Zongwen.

Xu Zongwen naturally saw the displeasure on Huan Xianrong's face, but after all, he was in Huan Mansion at this time, and it was a snack for the Huan Mansion family, so he could not say anything directly to Huan Xianrong.

Parents' orders, matchmaker's words.

Although the marriage of men and women at this time was not as prosperous as the aftermath, the most basic etiquette still existed. For example, men and women would try to meet as little as possible before the wedding ceremony. Some newlyweds even did not even see each other's faces before the bridal chamber.

After that, I have to live with tea, salt, soy sauce and vinegar for the rest of my life, with no choice at all.

Xu Zongwen was quite lucky. The emperor granted him a marriage, eliminating the need for a matchmaker. His father-in-law and mother-in-law had a good impression of him, and his only uncle was also kind-hearted.

It's just that this unmarried wife, known as Xiao Xie Daoyun, who is so famous that it is said that the person who proposes marriage has crossed the threshold of Huan Mansion, has a very different personality, and it seems that she is not easy to deal with!

"My son-in-law has been very busy with military affairs these days. He has been patrolling the 18th Camp of the Forbidden Army, so he spent the night in the camp. I hope my father-in-law and mother-in-law can forgive me! It is not that my son-in-law refused deliberately, but because the emperor's orders are on his side, and he is not around.

It's up to you!" Xu Zongwen clasped his hands and confessed to the Huan family.

On the first night when he first came to Huan Mansion, Huan Yi originally arranged for him to meet Huan Xianrong, but because of the emperor's edict, he had no choice but to take his two brothers, Zhang, three, Zhang and four, who were with him as escorts, into the palace overnight.

After two days and two nights of no whereabouts, Xi Jian and Guo Shang were left in Huan Mansion. Fortunately, my mother-in-law, Wang, was observant and considerate, and arranged a separate courtyard for them to live in early.

Huan Yi shook his head frequently and replied: "Your Majesty has an edict, how can I not obey it? Besides, the affairs of the Eighteenth Battalion of the Forbidden Army are complicated, and the rectification of the Forbidden Army is extraordinary. The power of this is beyond what ordinary people can see through!"

"Zong Wen is in a high position at a young age and has gained His Majesty's favor. Given such an important task, he naturally has to go all out. How can I not understand this kind of power? How can I blame you just because you broke the promise for a while?"

"Besides, you and your wife will have a good life in the future. You must not be in a hurry at night, right?" Huan Yi glanced at his beloved daughter, then turned back and asked Xu Zongwen with a smile.

Xu Zongwen heard three meanings in Huan Yi's words.

Although it is imperative to rectify the Forbidden Army, the relationship among the eighteen battalions of the Forbidden Army is intricate. Huan Yi asked him to think twice before doing anything.

The Huan family has been tied to him and must support him. There is no doubt about this.

The marriage contract between Huan Xianrong and him was decreed by the emperor and could not be changed in any way. Huan Yi said on the surface that he did not care about his breaking the contract, but in fact he was hinting that he should cherish his beloved!

"What my father-in-law said is reasonable, my son-in-law will bear it in mind." Xu Zongwen kept his posture very low, and looked like a junior who was listening and being taught, which made Huan Yi very satisfied.

Huan Xianrong was very resistant to Xu Zongwen, who was eloquent and well-rounded.

"Aye, what are you talking about?" Huan Xianrong was a little shy and reminded his father that Huan Yi was too explicit. Before they were married, they tied her and Xu Zongwen to death together.

Huan Yi said sternly: "What's the matter? Isn't it right as a father? We have to start preparing for the wedding ceremony now. Since ancient times, weddings and funerals have been a major event in human relations. There are three matchmakers and six betrothals. The etiquette system is complicated. According to ancient etiquette, the emperor's year is

, one season for doctors, one month for common people. What I mean is, set your wedding ceremony on an auspicious day in April..."

The person who is doing the wedding will combine the two surnames, so that the top one can serve the ancestral temple, and the bottom one can carry on the future generations.

Therefore, a gentleman attaches great importance to it. He uses the obsequious ceremony to accept gifts, ask for names, accept auspiciousness, accept invitations, and ask for appointments. All the masters have a banquet in the temple, and worship at the door. Enter, bow to the temple, and go up. They obey the orders of the temple, so they are respectful.

Be cautious about correctness and obscurity of etiquette.

"Zong Wen! You have to inform Mrs. Xu early, and don't be so busy and at a loss when the time comes!"

Xu Zongwen said solemnly: "My son-in-law took what my father-in-law said to heart and immediately wrote a letter to inform my mother of the good news!"

"Okay, okay!" Huan Yi smiled broadly and said to his wife Wang, "Go and bring me the royal wine from my cellar. I want to have a good drink with Zong Wen today!"
