As night falls, the lights in Zhangjia Village and the Marquis Mansion are still brightly lit. The woman and the assistant cook are waiting to select dishes, and the chef, Aunt Song, is mixing soup and preparing for tomorrow's wedding banquet.
Xiaoyu and Xiaolan checked the items they would use tomorrow over and over again, while Xiaomei and Suxin checked the gift list, fearing that there would be any mistakes.
Hua'er and Sister-in-law Li helped Zhang San prepare new clothes for tomorrow. Muramasa and Ban Zizai checked the banquet list again and again, checking for any missing guests.
Zhang San was lying on the bed recuperating his energy, but unfortunately he was very excited and could not fall asleep.
Zhang San did not fall asleep until late at night. Fortunately, the wedding in the early Tang Dynasty was still at dusk, so Zhang San also took a "lazy nap".
After getting up, Hua'er and Sister-in-law Li put Zhang San into new clothes, a purple marquis costume, a jade pendant, and a bright red flower. Zhang San felt that riding on horseback was sexy.
He was a bit arrogant, but he didn't refuse, just do as the Romans do.
"Zhang Fu, let's see if Cheng Chumo and Yuchi Baolin are here. Today they are going to pick up the bride with me." Zhang San sat there like a wooden figure and accepted Xie Hua'er's instructions. Suddenly
Thinking of something, he shouted outside.
"Okay, Sir." Zhang Fu responded outside and ran away in a hurry.
"Don't move, put some powder on your face." Xie Hua'er reminded Zhang San quickly when she saw Zhang San moving around.
"No need for this, I'm afraid of allergies." Zhang San quickly refused.
"You're so pretentious, just wipe it a little and it'll be fine." Xie Hua'er used her hands to straighten Zhang San's turned face, and looked at Zhang San's face seriously to see where there was still some makeup needed.
"Forget it, forget it, I'm not a pretty girl." Xie Hua'er's face was very close to Zhang San's. Zhang San could smell the fragrance of Xie Hua'er's body when he breathed, and he could also feel Xie Hua'er's fragrance on his face.
The heat from the flowers’ breath.
"Tch, look at your embarrassed look, forget it." Xie Hua'er rolled her eyes at Zhang San angrily.
"Sir, Young Master Cheng and the others are here." Zhang Fu hurried in and said.
"Okay, I understand."
"Groom, you look even more girly, come and let me pinch you." Cheng Chumo burst out laughing when he saw Zhang San.
Zhang San slapped Cheng Chumo's hand away and said angrily: "I don't think you will be like this in the future. When the time comes, your faces will be as dark as coal, and with this big red flower, ugh! I don't dare.
I don’t dare to think about it!”
"Don't worry, brother, I won't be so strict when the time comes, haha, but it's quite festive to see you." Yuchi Baolin said with a smile.
"Sir, the auspicious day has arrived, let's set off!" Muramasa walked in and said when he saw Zhang San had prepared himself.
"Okay, let's go!"
Zhang Sanxiong was arrogant and high-spirited, and he jumped onto his horse. Cheng Chumo and Yuchi Baolin also rode horses that had been tied with red ribbons, and a group of people walked toward Chang'an in a mighty manner.
In front is the marquis' honor guard, and behind is a carriage procession stretching hundreds of meters, filled with betrothal gifts.
Wherever Zhang San went, many people immediately gathered to watch, and everyone was talking about which family was getting married and engaging in such a big fight.
"Xiaolan, spread out these wedding candies that the young master mentioned and give them to the people who are watching. Today is the wedding day of the Marquis. We, the Marquis Mansion, must not be stingy." The carriage where Sister-in-law Li and Xiaolan were sitting was full of goods.
Wedding candy, this was prepared by Zhang San in advance.
"Okay Sister-in-law Li."
The two of them used small wooden ladles to sprinkle candies and pastries outside.
"Today is the day of great joy for the Marquis Zhang of Wannian County. I invite you all to eat wedding candies and feel happy." Sitting on the carriage, Sister-in-law Li shouted several times outside, and then she and Xiaolan began to throw the candies outside.
Immediately, the people watching outside fell on the ground to grab the fallen candies and cakes, and kept saying a few auspicious words.
"Tsk tsk, you are worthy of being the Marquis of Zhang County. He is so grand."
"Isn't that right? Zhang County Marquis is the youngest Marquis in the Tang Dynasty. He earned his fortune by relying on his own ability."
"I heard that Zhang Xianhou married a daughter of the Fang family."
"Which Fang family?"
"Who else could it be from the Fang family? Of course it would be Shangshu Zuopushe and Xing Guogong Fang Xuanling!"
"It's incredible, it's incredible!"
…
There was a crowd of people eating melons on the road. They looked at the wedding procession going away and kept sighing.
At this time, Fang Keying was also neatly dressed, wearing a green robe and leather belt, a flower hairpin on her head, plain makeup, cherry red lips, and willow-shaped eyebrows, and she was as beautiful as a fairy.
If paired with a long white dress, she will look like a fairy. Unfortunately, women's wedding clothes at this time are all cyan.
But this can't stop Fang Keying's beautiful face.
"Miss, you look so good today. I'm sure Zhang Xianhou will be fascinated when he sees you later." Xiaoyan helped Fang Keying put on her hairpin and praised her.
"You are making fun of me again. I wonder where Zhang San is now..." Fang Keying said in a low voice.
"Hehe! Miss, I can't wait any longer! I think it will be here soon." Xiaoyan smiled narrowly, causing Fang Keying to give her an annoyed look.
"Miss, Zhang Xianhou's wedding team is here. Madam asked me to see how you are preparing." A maid came in and said.
"Ready." Fang Keying was very excited and nervous at this time. She was about to get married and became a woman. I don't know...
At this time, a poem urging makeup was suddenly heard from outside. It turned out that it was Zhang San who started urging makeup.
"There is no such thing as two good things in one bed. How can a good girl find a good husband? With a high curtain made of beads and a candle lit, try to teach the Bodhisattva how to see mahu. The bride will come out..."
After shouting several times, Zhang San saw Fang Keying walking out accompanied by a group of female relatives and maids.
When the people from Zhang San's side saw the bride coming out, they shouted loudly, and it didn't end until Fang Keying got into the "wedding car".
Zhang San saluted Fang Xuanling, Mrs. Fang and others one by one. Zhang San practiced these etiquettes for a long time yesterday. After finally waiting for Fang Keying to get into the wedding car, Zhang San also finished here. He got on his horse and prepared to go home quickly.
, after a set of procedures, Zhang San was almost tortured crazy.
At this moment, Zhang San did not expect that Fang Keying's wedding car was stopped by a group of women and family members from the house.
"No! What is this for?"
"Damn it, you, the groom, don't understand anything. This is a broken car. Are you ready to win?" Cheng Chumo said angrily.
"I didn't know. If you didn't stop me, I would leave first." Zhang San really forgot about this step, but fortunately Sister-in-law Li came with him.
Sister-in-law Li quickly greeted her with a smile, holding a flower basket in her hand, which contained "red envelopes" prepared in advance.
After finally sending away these women who were stuck in the car, Zhang San could finally take Fang Keying home.
Back at the Marquis Palace, there were already many guests there, and then there was another complicated and cumbersome process before the entire wedding process was completed.
Since Zhang San's parents were away, some links were omitted. Fang Keying kept her head covered throughout the whole process, and the two of them didn't say a word. After accepting the blessings from the guests, both of them couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
