There was nothing to prepare for the wedding of Yihe and Zhou Xiang. Neither party had any relatives, and most of their friends were at Zixiao. It was like having a dinner together.
But after all, it is a lifelong event, so you still need to be prepared.
Procedures such as three media and six appointments were also symbolically completed, and the problem came from the parents' court.
Both of their parents have died, and they have no other distant relatives or elders, so there will be no elders to pay their respects when visiting the church.
Everyone suggested that Chen Jingke or Sun Simiao should be the beheading officer on behalf of the elders, but Chen Jingke refused.
"If your parents abandoned you when you were young, then it would be okay for Master and I to go up and have your heads shaved."
"But your parents worked hard to raise you, and no one could have predicted what would happen later."
"They don't owe you anything, so it's not appropriate for anyone to take this responsibility on their behalf."
"Just place their memorial tablets on their heads. I believe they will be happy under the Nine Springs and will bless you."
Yihe's parents did not treat their sisters badly at all when they were alive. They were not to blame for both of their deaths later, and they were not to blame for what happened next.
Zhou Xiang's parents both died in military disasters. This is no one's fault. I can only hope that the Tang Dynasty will encounter military disasters more than ten years after its establishment.
Naturally, the two of them had no objections. On the contrary, they were very grateful to Chen Jingke for thinking about them.
That's how things were settled.
Soon it was November 16th, which was considered an auspicious day.
The backyard and outer courtyard of Zixiao Temple were newly decorated. Qing Ju personally cooked and took several disciples to prepare snacks one after another.
The chef of Tiantianju showed his special skills and prepared tables of delicious dishes.
We have prepared wines from the Western Regions and fine wines from the Central Plains.
What was really unexpected was that on the morning of the wedding, Changsun Wugou sent a full set of wedding hairpins, and Crown Princess Su Yu sent a dress made of Shu brocade.
Huachai is a hat made mainly of gold and silver and decorated with various colored glazes. It weighs several kilograms in total.
I won’t go into detail about the value of Shu brocade.
This made everyone both surprised and envious.
Yihe's eyes filled with tears of gratitude, and she saluted repeatedly in the direction of the palace.
In the Tang Dynasty, there was a rule that the wedding dress of brides, regardless of their status, should be cyan, and the groom's dress should be red.
This is where Guys and Dolls comes from.
However, according to actual unearthed cultural relics, it was found that the bride's dress was actually dark blue and green.
Class differences existed everywhere. Only high-class ladies could wear silk dresses when they got married, while common people could only wear variegated leather clothes.
There is also jewelry. According to different status levels, the jewelry that the bride can wear is also different.
A white-bodied person like Yihe is basically not allowed to wear other jewelry besides essential jewelry such as hairpins, bracelets, and earrings.
Flower hairpins are unthinkable. Even if they are allowed to be worn, ordinary people cannot afford to make them.
But it's different now. The jewelry and clothes given by the Queen and the Crown Princess can be worn at higher levels.
For a bride, this honor is very great.
After Yihe expressed her gratitude, she saluted Chen Jingke and expressed her gratitude. In her opinion, the queen and the princess gave the jewelry all because of Chen Jingke's face.
In fact, she somewhat underestimated the influence she had with Mochizuki.
There must be Chen Jingke’s reasons why the Queen and the Crown Princess gave the jewelry. There is no doubt about this.
But another reason is her status as the editor-in-chief of Mochizuki Tan.
No matter who can control a journal that sells more than 100,000 copies and affects millions of readers, the royal family will give them some respect.
Moreover, after being the editor-in-chief of Mochizuki Tan for so long, she has indeed accumulated enough reputation in the literary world.
Many great scholars wrote to her with utmost respect.
Of course, she was right to thank Chen Jingke, because without him, there would be no hope for Wang Yue Tan.
Considering that Wangyuetan has been released for so long, do you really think that no one has imitated it? Why hasn’t a second competing product appeared?
Because all imitators have been shut down by the court, dignitaries and yamen for various reasons.
Meat eaters are least willing to see the existence of something like this that can affect people's hearts.
The Moon Talk could exist only because Chen Jingke was the guarantor, and the emperor really needed a similar channel to do something.
So it can be preserved and prosper.
Zhou Xiang and a group of brothers rushed to the Qingju Courtyard, which represents her mother's family, to welcome the bride before noon.
In fact, it is against the rules here, and the groom is not allowed to go there to welcome the bride.
It's just that they live in a big courtyard. After everyone discussed it, we didn't need to be too particular about it. Let the groom personally carry the bride over.
When bidding farewell to the high hall, Yihe cried heartbrokenly in front of her parents' memorial tablets, which was heartbreaking to hear.
Qing Jue pulled her out and said to Zhou Xiang: "Don't let her down."
Zhou Xiang said firmly: "Sister Qingju, don't worry, if I betray her, I will be struck by thunder and die without a burial place."
Only then did Qingju hand Yihe over to him.
Zhou Xiang carried Yihe, who was all dressed up, to his yard, and the wedding ceremony was completed.
Then we waited until dusk to start the wedding ceremony.
I won’t go into too much detail about the process. In short, the wedding went smoothly and everyone was very happy.
Then it's time to have dinner.
In fact, the groom does not need to accompany him. He can go to the bride after dinner. Accompanying guests is a matter for the elders in the family.
So after dinner, Zhou Xiang returned home with a blushing face amidst everyone's joking, and then locked the door firmly.
However, as soon as he walked away, someone climbed over the wall and listened to the root of the wall. Chen Jingke and others laughed but did not stop him.
Everyone was just joking and wouldn't really listen to Qiangen.
While eating, Chen Jingke asked Elaine: "I heard that you have a crush? Or a pen pal?"
Many people at the scene pricked up their ears. There was no shortage of suitors for these sisters in the audience. It would be fine if they were married off by one of their own, and no one could say anything.
If this person is married off by an outsider, where will their dignity go?
Elaine's face turned red with embarrassment, and she whispered: "No way, the man we wrote to was just asking me for advice on writing skills."
How could Chen Jingke not see that she was indeed a little moved, but he deliberately pretended not to know and said, "That's good, I thought you were attracted to an outsider."
"Don't be stupid. You will be bullied after you get married so far away. You don't even have any family members around you."
"Besides, our big family is so lively. You can also do things that interest you here. If you get married, you can spend your whole life raising your children."
Elian panicked and shook her head hurriedly: "No, really no, I...how could I let everyone go?"
As if to show her determination, she whispered: "If you want to find me, you have to look for me in our courtyard, so you don't have to be separated from everyone."
"Haha..." Chen Jingke laughed loudly and said, "Brothers, did you hear that? You don't need me to teach you anymore."
"Oh!!!" A group of men started shouting and making noises, and the meaning was obviously self-evident.
How could Yi Lian still eat, and spat: "Master, you are so bad, I will never pay attention to you again."
Then he got up and ran home.
Qing Jue said angrily: "Master, you can just bully Yi Lian as much as you can, be careful if she really marries somewhere else."
Chen Jingke smiled and said: "If Elian can marry an outsider, all the unmarried men here will jump into the river. I said, we can't afford to lose that person."
"Yes, Elian can only be a member of our courtyard, and she will always be a member of our courtyard." A kind of unmarried boy cried like a ghost.
Chen Jingke yelled again: "Don't just focus on Yi Lian, there are so many girls in our outer hospital, and there is a Kundao in the front yard, and unmarried doctors..."
"There is a saying that wealth should not flow to outsiders, but we cannot let outsiders cheat them away."
As a result, all the little girls spat.
All the men were boiling with excitement, and there was another burst of ghostly cries and howls.
Sun Simiao, Hong Ling and others who were eating next to them were smiling. This was actually quite good.
Elaine, who ran back to the yard, came to her room and took out a thick stack of letters from a box.
She was indeed attracted to the man, but her previous experiences had left her with a fear of the outside world.
She was also worried about whether the husband was pretending to be a man. What if she was not happy when she really married him?
But she was a little unwilling to give up like this, and partly because her conscience couldn't bear it.
If you deny that gentleman and deny the feelings in your heart because of these unfounded things, then wouldn't you become a scumbag?
But it's different now. Chen Jingke expressed clear opposition and she found the best excuse.
If the real person doesn’t agree, I can’t help it, so let’s leave it at that.
She came to the stove with the letter, but when she was about to throw it in, she hesitated. After all, it also represented a hazy emotional experience for her.
Although neither party has made it clear, there are some things that have been tacitly understood in their hearts.
She had fantasized about spending time with the other person, and she also fantasized about growing old together.
Now that I suddenly want to give up, I am really hesitant.
"Woohoo!!!" Everyone's noises came from outside again.
She couldn't help but think about what happened in Zixiaoguan. Did she really have to give up all this for someone she had never met?
No, these things have been integrated into her life and become an inseparable part. How could she give up.
Thinking of this, her expression became firm and she threw the letters in her hand one by one into the stove and burned them.
Burning a letter does not mean cutting off contact with the other party. The other party knows her address, and she also knows the other party's address. She can write a letter anytime she wants to contact her.
But this represents her will to cut off any emotional entanglement with the other person.
After burning the letter in her hand, she suddenly felt relaxed, as if a heavy burden had been lifted.
At this moment, she suddenly remembered Chen Jingke's words in a fairy tale: When a relationship brings you more pressure than happiness, what is the meaning of its existence?
She didn't know what this sentence meant before, and she didn't take it seriously.
Feelings are feelings. You should move forward bravely without fear of any difficulties and obstacles. How can you give up just because of a little pressure?
Only then did she realize how naive she was.
Yes, true love should indeed be pursued bravely, even at the cost of life.
But there is a premise, which is to make sure that this is true love and that it is a two-way journey.
Dong Yong and the Seven Fairies first had a sweet experience and understood each other's feelings.
Therefore, they are willing to give everything for each other, no matter how much suffering they suffer, they are still happy, and finally withstand many tests and finally get married.
But what about the relationship between her and the person in the letter? The two parties have never met each other, and the window paper has not even been pierced.
It hasn't officially started yet, and it hasn't even let you feel the sweetness yet, but it has already brought so much psychological pressure, so why does it still exist?
After thinking about this, the last bit of guilt in her heart completely disappeared.
This wedding banquet was actually similar to an internal party at Zixiaoguan, so no one was deliberately joking around.
Besides, it's already getting cold. Who has nothing to do with being cold here at night? They all went back to their houses to warm up after they had eaten and drank enough.
The few who still had more to say took some drinks and food back to their homes and continued around the fire.
Chen Jingke went to Wu Shuyuan to rest tonight. Perhaps she was stimulated by Yihe's wedding. She was a little excited and pulled him to toss for a long time before resting.
She is getting older and older, and it is too tiring to deal with her, even more tiring than dealing with Yi Nu and Yu Zhu.
The main reason is that I am afraid of accidentally hurting the child if I move too much, so I have to be very careful.
The most important thing is that rice green can easily cause infection, is detrimental to fetal growth and development, and can also cause uterine contractions and lead to miscarriage.
So basically he never reaches the top every time, and he just pulls out if he can't help it.
It doesn't matter if I had a small umbrella in my previous life, but in this life I don't have that thing, so I can only rely on myself to be careful.
In this case, he couldn't feel much pleasure.
As for why we still have sex with her, firstly, it is because pregnant women have imbalanced hormone secretion and have particularly strong needs in this area. Proper satisfaction is beneficial to physical and mental health.
Second, a proper married life will... Anyway, it will make childbirth smoother and reduce the probability of dystocia to a certain extent.
So he really wasn't driven by lust. If it was really because of desire, wouldn't it be better to go to Yi Nu and Yu Zhu.
Early the next morning, a group of idle people deliberately blocked the door of Zhou Xiang's house, as if watching the fun.
Yihe, who came out to open the door, was caught off guard and was startled. When he realized what he was doing, he turned red in the face.
However, as the editor-in-chief of Mochizuki Tan, she is not that kind of weak little woman. She is very gentle on the surface, but very strong on the inside.
Knowing that these people were here to make fun of her, she suppressed her shyness and said openly:
"Why are you here as a guest at our house so early? Come in and sit down. I'll make tea for you."
This makes other people feel embarrassed. It's just fun, and it's a bit inappropriate to go to the newlyweds' house so early in the morning.
So a group of people left quickly.
Yihe put his hands on his hips and looked at the embarrassed figures of these guys with pride.
If you want to see my jokes, you are simply overthinking.
At this time Zhou Xiang shouted from inside the room: "He'er, who is outside?"
Yihe immediately put away his proud expression and said softly: "The neighbors passed by and I said hello to them."
Zhou Xiang didn't think much about it and just said: "I thought they were those bastards. Humph, let's see how I deal with them next time they get married."
Yihe covered her mouth and smiled: "I've been waiting for this day too... It's getting late, I'll go cook for you."
Zhou Xiang hurriedly followed up and said: "I'll light the fire for you... Hehe, our pot hasn't been burned since we got it back. Today we finally have a mistress, so we can start the fire."
