Chapter 391 Welcoming the Spring Festival

Yingchun took out the house deed and the banknote, and said to Si Qi: "Huan'er also gave me a shop. After I get married, I will arrange the marriage between you and your cousin. When you get married, you will help me manage it."

That shop, the shopkeeper and his wife."

Si Qi was happy and grateful, and hurriedly thanked him, expressing his loyalty.

Yingchun said to Xiuju again: "Don't envy her. Later, I will help you find a good family and let you be a good wife after you get married."

Xiuju was also busy expressing her gratitude and loyalty.

Yingchun sent them to rest and went to bed himself.

However, she couldn't fall asleep while lying on the bed.

Yingchun thought a lot, about everyone in Rongguo Mansion, about my life in the past ten years, about...

It wasn't until it was almost the fourth watch that Yingchun fell asleep.

The next day, Yingchun was woken up by Siqi and Xiuju. She was not in good spirits, but she had to keep herself up.

Today was the day to send the dowry to the Kong family, so she had to look tired.

Jia Lian asked his servants to open the door and said cheerfully: "Brother-in-law, if you want to enter the Rongguo Mansion, you must pass the test of my brother-in-law."

He looked at Jia Huan behind Jia Lian, and intuitively felt that Jia Huan was the main person who was causing trouble for him today.

Jia Huan pursed his lips and smiled, tilting his head, ignoring Kong Weixuan's expression.

Today is the wedding day of the Spring Festival. Jia Baoyu felt sad, so he stayed in Yihong Courtyard and did not go out, thinking that it would not happen if he could not see it.

Jia Lian: "This is the first couplet. Please ask my brother-in-law to correct the second couplet. The first couplet is: Bass with four gills monopolizes Songjiang Prefecture."

This day is still very busy, but as the protagonist, Yingchun is only responsible for sitting there and smiling at people.

This question was very simple for Kong Weixuan. He just thought about it and gave the answer: "Lu Zhishen."

Although the book records seventy-two disciples of Confucius, their ages are not clearly recorded.

Jia Huan chuckled and gave everyone the answer: "The "Waiting Sitting" said: In late spring, when the spring clothes are ready, five or six people will be crowned, and six or seven boys will bathe in Yi, and the wind will dance with Ug, chanting and return. These five or six people

Thirty, there are thirty people crowned. Sixty-seven and forty-two, there are forty-two boys. Doesn’t that add up to exactly seventy-two people?”

Jia Lian asked Jia Huan: "Brother Huan, what can you do to embarrass the groom?"

His best man was either a Jinshi of the same class as him or a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy. They were both well-read in scriptures, and they were also troubled by this question and didn't know the answer.

None of the three questions bothered Kong Weixuan, so he just opened the door, but Jia Lian was unwilling to accept it.

With the way his limbs are not working hard, he is probably no match for Kong Weixuan.

The task of entertaining guests fell on Jia Lian and Jia Huan.

Kong Weixuan looked at his helpers for help.

He hasn't even finished reading the Four Books and Five Classics, so how can he embarrass the groom, who is a scholar in the scientific examination?

Do you want the groom to have a fight with you?

Jia Lian immediately shook his head and shook the idea out of his head.

Fortunately, Yingchun has a good foundation, so even if her face is ruined by bridal makeup, it won't scare anyone.

At the end of the day, Yingchun felt tired, but she no longer had insomnia and fell directly into sleep.

This question was a bit difficult, but it didn't bother Kong Weixuan. Kong Weixuan didn't think about it for long, and he had the answer: "I'm just talking too much."

Early the next morning, Yingchun was called up by the maid to wash up.

Jia Baoyu was very happy that the two returned to the Grand View Garden, but was very sad to get married in the Spring Festival, and was extremely conflicted.

Can the sage’s book still be understood in this way?

Seeing everyone's speechless look, Jia Huan smiled even more happily.

Jia Huan took a step forward and said: "Brother-in-law, Confucius has seventy-two disciples. Do you know how many are crowned? How many young men are there?"

Jia Huan followed Jia Lian and blocked the gate of Rongguo Mansion to embarrass the groom.

Jia Lian said: "As expected of a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, I know that such a simple question is not difficult for you, so continue."

Jia Lian scratched his head, he didn't know how to embarrass the groom.

Because they were getting married in the Spring Festival, she and Lin Daiyu had just moved into the Grand View Garden, but it was only a temporary stay for a few days. After the three days of Spring Festival, they would still have to go back to their homes.

While he was talking, the groom had already arrived at the gate of Rongguo Mansion with a group of groomsmen and was knocking on the door.

After finishing speaking, Jia Lian looked at the next question on the paper.

After the Grand View Garden was confiscated, Xue Baochai returned to his own home.

Jia Huan smiled: "Is this how you apologize?"

He looked at Jia Huan: Brother Huan, do you have any other way to embarrass Kong Weixuan?

Not bothering Kong Weixuan, Jia Lian sighed and continued to ask questions.

Kong Weixuan bowed his hands gratefully to Jia Lian and led the best man to the Hall of Honor and Happiness.

"Tell me a sentence from The Analects of Confucius."

Kong Weixuan raised his hand to Jia Lian and said, "Brother-in-law, please show mercy."

Kong Weixuan was so anxious that he could only ask Jia Huan for mercy.

Yingchun asked Xiuju to put on a slightly thicker makeup to make herself look energetic, and then went to Rongqing Hall.

So he was in a good mood and asked the female concierge to open the door and let Kong Weixuan and his party in.

Jia Lian reached out and patted Jia Huan on the shoulder: "Brother Huan, well done."

Kong Weixuan and a group of groomsmen: "..."

Jia Huan said and took out a piece of paper from his arms. Jia Lian looked at the title on it and was happy.

The ancient bridal makeup was simply unsightly. A good-looking person could turn into a frighteningly ugly person after wearing this kind of makeup.

Although Jia Lian didn't understand it, he was happy because he had troubled the groom.

Jia Huan smiled: "Leave it to me, second brother Lian. I went to consult with powerful people a few days ago and got a lot of difficult questions."

Tanchun and Xichun and other sisters also came to accompany her early in the morning, including Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai.

Jia Lian chuckled, unfolded the paper he got from Jia Huan, and read according to the title on it.

"Brother Huan, I don't know why, so I ask Brother Huan for advice."

Jia Huan smiled and remembered the title of a martial arts novel he had read.

This is very difficult for Kong Weixuan.

Kong Weixuan laughed: "Crabs with eight legs roam all over the world."

Kong Weixuan gave Jia Huan a "begging for mercy" look.

Xi Niang came in to help Yingchun do her hair, make up, and put on her wedding dress.

This is still a puzzle, and the title is a line from Liu Yuxi's poem "From Langzhou to Beijing Opera in the Tenth Year of Yuanhe, I Present Flowers to All the Gentlemen/Xuandu Views Peach Blossoms": "No one knows how to watch flowers return."

"The Foolish Old Man's plan to move mountains is not simple. Name him after someone from Water Margin."

Kong Weixuan smiled bitterly: "There is no way, the auspicious time is coming."

This question is quite difficult for scholars.

Jia Lian quickly followed.

As the bride's brother, he has to carry the bride on his back.

Jia Huan walked slowly behind the crowd, feeling so happy that he almost started to whistle.

By the time he arrived at Rongxi Hall, Yingchun had already paid homage to his grandmother and parents, and was carried out by Jia Lian.
