September 15th, the 21st year of Yongzhi, can be said to be the busiest day in the Chen family.
The Chen family mentioned here refers to the newly purchased house by Chen Xiaolin, which will serve as his new home after he and Wang Yuyan get married.
At this time, the Chen Mansion was full of guests, and there were more than twenty large tables in the courtyard, all of which were occupied by people who came to watch the ceremony.
What ceremony are you watching? Of course it is to watch Chen Xiaolin's wedding. Today is the day when he and Wang Yuyan get married.
The guests who came today can be roughly divided into four categories.
The first is Chen Dayong's old brothers, the second is the uncles and relatives of the Chen family, the third is Chen Xiaolin's friends and associates, and the fourth is the flag officials in the Jinyiwei Yamen.
People in the four categories each sat in a place, each talking about things in their own circle, and the courtyard was filled with laughter and laughter.
But when Chen Xiaoting arrived with his family, the scene became much quieter, and everyone's eyes were attracted to him.
The subordinates in the hundred households stood up and saluted one after another: "I have met you, sir!"
After Chen Xiaoting signaled his subordinates to excuse themselves, he crossed the courtyard directly and entered the main hall, where Chen Dayong and Gao Erniang were sitting on the main seats.
In addition, some close relatives were also present, including Chen Xiaoting's second uncle Chen Daneng, and several of his uncles.
"Xiao Ting is here!" Chen Daneng was the first to say.
Although most of the people in the room were Chen Xiaoting's elders, as Chen Xiaoting walked into the room, they became more cautious.
Only Chen Daneng, as Chen Xiaoting's second uncle, was not so cautious at this time.
Just listen to him say: "Xiao Ting, why are you here now? Xiao Lin has already gone to pick up the bride!"
Chen Xiaoting explained: "The kids were making a fuss just now, so I came late!"
Hearing this, Chen Dayong, who was sitting on the throne, laughed and said, "Why didn't you bring Ruiling here? His second uncle is getting married today!"
Chen Xiaoting bowed to his father and said: "He has been brought here, Shen Yi is taking him in the next room!"
Immediately, Chen Xiaoting greeted other relatives, many of whom he didn't even know.
After chatting awkwardly in the main hall for a while, I heard the sound of gongs and drums coming from outside, indicating that the wedding team had returned.
As the groom's brother, Chen Xiaoting stood beside Chen Dayong, while Chen Xiaoyu stood beside Gao Erniang.
Soon, Chen Xiaolin took his bride and slowly walked into the main hall.
"Worship heaven and earth..."
Soon the ceremony of worshiping heaven and earth was held, which also brought the atmosphere of the audience to the most enthusiastic, and sent their blessings to the newlyweds.
Soon the bride was sent to the bridal chamber, and then it was time for Chen Xiaolin to compete with his drinking capacity. In fact, his drinking capacity was quite good.
After the wine was served, Chen Xiaoting sat in the family area, but people came to toast him from time to time. No one present wanted to get closer to him.
At this moment, a person quickly walked into the Chen residence, but it was Liu Dong, Ren Xiaolian who was in charge of surveillance.
But seeing the ugly look on his face, Chen Xiaoting knew something bad had happened, so he used his eyes to signal Liu Dong to wait outside.
After saying goodbye to the people at his table, Chen Xiaoting came to the room next to the main hall, only to see Shen Yi sitting there alone.
"Why is Madam here alone?" Chen Xiaoting couldn't help but ask.
Shen Yi then replied: "Isn't Rui Ling so angry? This little ancestor is too naughty!"
Chen Xiaoting sat on the stool next to Shen Yi, and Liu Dong rushed in at this time.
"I've met Master Baihu, I've met Madam!" Liu Dong saluted and paid homage.
Picking up the teacup on the side, Chen Xiaoting asked: "You are coming here at this time. You must have something to report. Please tell me!"
After Liu Dong hesitated for a moment, he said: "Reporting to your lord, Ren Xiaolian... is dead!"
After Liu Dong finished speaking, Chen Xiaoting's face suddenly darkened, and then he slammed the teacup onto the table.
There was a crisp "pop" sound, and the teacup turned into pieces in Chen Xiaoting's hand, which shocked Shen Yi who was sitting next to him.
Since marrying Chen Xiaoting, Shen Yi has never seen him so angry. Obviously, this time things are unusual.
Liu Dongzhan knelt on the ground tremblingly, and heard Chen Xiaoting say in a stern tone: "Is this how you treat me? Trash!"
"You are humble and incompetent, please punish me!" Liu Dongman said in fear.
Chen Xiaoting said angrily: "Then what are you still doing here? Why don't you go check it out quickly?"
Liu Dong felt like he had received an amnesty. He knew that Chen Xiaoting would be angry, but he did not expect that he would be so angry.
After Liu Dong withdrew, Chen Xiaoting was still furious, but his hand was held by Shen Yi.
At this time, Chen Xiaoting's hand overflowed with blood. He was scratched by a fragment of the cup, which made Shen Yi feel heartbroken.
Then she took out the handkerchief from her arms and gently wrapped it around Chen Xiaoting's hand, giving him a simple bandage.
"Master, let's go see a doctor later!" Shen Yi said still worried.
Although Chen Xiaoting was still angry, he would not be angry with his wife, but he still said in a cold tone: "No need!"
At this time, Shen Yi said softly: "Master, today is my second brother's happy day, you can't be too angry!"
Being reminded by this sentence, Chen Xiaoting suppressed his anger, but he still couldn't laugh for a while.
At this time, after hearing the sound of the cup inside breaking, Gao Erniang was worried and came over to check.
Seeing that there were broken cups on the table and the eldest son's hand was injured, Gao Erniang knew something was wrong.
So she asked: "What's going on?"
Chen Xiaoting was not in the mood to answer at this time, so Shen Yi stood up, walked to Gao Erniang, took her hand and said: "Mom, there is no morale, it's just that my husband accidentally dropped the cup, it's nothing serious!"
"It's really nothing?" Gao Erniang was full of doubts and wanted to step forward and take a look at her son's hand.
At this time, Chen Dayong's voice came from outside: "Old lady, is there anything going on inside? Ask Xiao Ting to come out for a drink!"
After hearing this shouting, Gao Erniang did not go into details, but said to Chen Xiaoting: "Your father asked you to go out. Today is the day when your brother is getting married. Please make me happy!"
Speaking of this, Chen Xiaoting could only force out a smile, and then said: "Mom, please go out first, I will be back in a moment!"
Gao Erniang then walked out, and Shen Yi stood up and said: "Master, no matter the good or bad news, don't take it to heart. Is there a Yamen here?"
In fact, although he was still angry, Chen Xiaoting had already figured it out a lot.
So he no longer had a bad face, he stood up and said: "Okay madam, my husband is not so narrow-minded, just don't worry!"
Then Chen Xiaoting and Shen Yi walked out of the room together, and immediately they separated.
Shen Yi went to the women's table, while Chen Xiaoting sat back next to Chen Dayong.
Sitting here, he could see that Ban Zhengkai and Zhang Cheng, who were still eating here, had disappeared.
Obviously, the death of Ren Xiaolian has made them unable to sit still.
Just when Chen Xiaoting was thinking about these things, he heard Chen Xiaolin's voice coming from behind him: "Brother, I'd like to give you a drink today!"
