The newlyweds were welcomed to the Su Mansion. They got off the sedan and stepped on the colorful mats that had been laid out into the hall. They worshiped the heaven and the earth, worshiped their ancestors and worshiped their parents. Finally, the couple held Dahong in hand and worshiped together. All four worships were completed, and they drank Hexin wine.
After entering the bridal chamber, the wedding comes to an end.
There are naturally various small customs unique to the Song Dynasty, which Su Jin has never heard of or seen, such as spreading beans when entering the door, riding on the saddle when entering the hall, and after entering the bridal chamber, a special bride will cut off a small strand of hair of the two people and braid it into a concentric knot.
This way, the name is: combined bun; Su Jin is resigned to it. In short, today, he is just a puppet. You can do whatever others want you to do, as long as you comply with the conditions.
When the sky was bright, people came to congratulate one after another. Zhao Zhen seemed to be kind to him today. The morning court dispersed very early. The officials all knew that today was Su Zhuangyuan's happy day, so they rushed to the court one after another.
The Su family came to congratulate me.
The first one to arrive was the great matchmaker Ouyang Xiu, followed by Fu Bi, Yang Cha and others. Naturally, the officials of the court, including Wang Anshi, Wei Songhe and other friends of the same age also arrived one after another.
Not surprisingly, just like the last time the bank opened, although Lu Yijian, Du Yan, Xia Song and others did not arrive, they still sent people to send congratulatory gifts; everyone knew what was going on in the officialdom, and it was obvious.
He is kind and friendly, even if he stabs you secretly, he refuses to be gossiped out of favor; what's more, it is not just as simple as Su Jin getting married, he is marrying Yan Shu's niece, and this alone is not enough.
Expressed expressed.[
The Su family's new house is quite large, and the main hall of the flower hall was quickly filled with guests. Even the wedding tent in the courtyard was filled with people with lower official positions congratulating them. Everyone in the Su family was so busy that their feet did not touch the floor, and the servants and maids kept coming and going.
While going back and forth to pour tea and snacks, Su Jin also waved her hands back and forth to say hello, keeping her busy feet from touching the floor.
While everyone was laughing and talking, another guest came outside the door. This time, it was several palace servants who came in. The leader was Huang Peisheng, the chief servant of the emperor, followed by several small Huangmen.
Officials who knew Huang Peisheng immediately realized that the emperor had sent someone to announce the decree. Sure enough, as soon as Huang Peisheng entered the courtyard, he shouted: "The imperial decree has arrived!"
Except for Yan Biyun, who was in the bridal chamber and could not go out, everyone in the Su family hurriedly rushed to the courtyard. The officials also hurriedly left their seats and came to the courtyard. Hundreds of people fell to their knees.
"I heard that Su Aiqing was happy to be married today, and I congratulated Su Aiqing with the four words 'Togetherness and Eternal Marriage' on her hand, and gave the following awards to everyone in the Su family. In view of Su Jin's many outstanding achievements for the court, the previous time he failed to pass the imperial examination and thus delayed the reward,
This time, they were also rewarded with titles; Su was awarded the title of Bachelor of the Jin Hanlin Academy, and was awarded the post of Weizhou magistrate in addition to the original history library; Su's mother, Wang, was good at raising her children and was a model mother, and was specially awarded the title of fourth-grade imperial concubine; and Su
Several members of the Family Nursing Institute have been awarded the title of Eighth-Rank Imperial Guard Commander of the Dynasty, including Ma Han, Zhang Long and Zhao Hu, because of their meritorious service following Su Aiqing on errands. I appreciate this!"
Everyone shouted long live in unison. Su Jin got up and hurriedly invited Huang Peisheng into the hall to have tea. Huang Peisheng actually brought a congratulatory gift himself, which was a set of exquisite fourth-grade prefectural official uniforms from the Palace Clothing Department.
It is both precious and suitable for the occasion. Of course, whether the money was paid for by himself, or whether he used the money from the Ministry of Internal Affairs as a favor, this is not what Su Jin considered.
Zhao Zhen's inscription with the emperor's seal was immediately hung on the wall above the main hall. All the officials present were envious. Now Su Zhuangyuan is so red that when he opens a shop in his home or gets married, he has to be given a plaque and a banner.
, this honor is unmatched by anyone.
Everyone was busy congratulating Su Jin on his appointment as the magistrate of Weizhou. In the morning, everyone heard about the whereabouts of the new scholars, but they did not hear about Su Jin's arrangements. Only then did they know that the emperor had actually directly awarded them.
The position of Su Jin's fourth grade magistrate.
However, some people were secretly murmuring, since Su Zhuangyuan was a popular person in the eyes of the emperor, why was he released from the capital? Even if he was released as a prefect, he was a special favor of the emperor, but why was he sent to Weizhou?
To become a magistrate in a shitty place? Everyone knows that there is a war in the northwest. If Su Jin, a scholar, goes to Weizhou to be a magistrate, isn't he looking for death? Does the emperor simply want to look good to Su Jin?
Some people even directly connected it to the overt and secret fighting in the court. Further speculation on this matter must be that someone stabbed Su Jin in the back. He was considered a jelly bean to the prefect, but when he went to the northwest to do the prefecture, he immediately took a big dung ball after eating the jelly beans.
When it enters Su Jin's mouth, it is called sweet first and then bitter.
At noon, the Su Mansion opened more than a hundred tables of banquets, showing its luxurious style. When the banquet was over in the evening, everyone gave a return gift of considerable value, and then the guests were sent away.
As night fell, the guests gradually dispersed, and the Su Mansion became quiet. The day's tossing in the Su family made everyone exhausted. Except for the nurse who was performing his duties, he was still patrolling around energetically.
Everyone sat in their chairs and didn't want to move.
Su Jin had drunk a lot of wine, and his steps were light and graceful. Now he was sitting in the hall, burping from wine, and letting Xiao Sui'er bring hot water to rub his feet.
"Have everyone in the family received their rewards?" Su Jin asked with a crooked eyebrow and eyes, smelling of alcohol.
"Don't worry about it, my lord. Sister Rou Niang has already sealed a big red envelope for everyone. Why are you drinking so much wine? The young lady has been staying in the bridal chamber for a whole day, and you didn't go in to accompany her."
she."
"Young Madam? What Young Madam?" Su Jin asked in a daze.
"Are you stupid? Isn't Miss Yan a young lady now?" Rou Niang poked Su Jin's head and said with a smile.
Su Jin suddenly understood. He kicked up his shoes and walked to the back hall before he could wipe his wet feet. Xiao Sui'er said hurriedly: "Wipe your feet, wipe your feet."
Rou Niang said sourly: "Silly sister, a spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold. How can I have time to wipe my feet now? I ordered people to clean up the hall and yard. Let's also eat something and take a bath. The slave family is very tired this day; by the way;
, The old lady hasn’t eaten yet, look, she’s so busy that she’s forgotten about the old lady, damn it!”[
Before he finished speaking, he left in a hurry, leaving Xiao Sui'er holding a wet towel and rolling her eyes.
Su Jin came to the door of the bridal chamber, and the maid at the door quickly said hello in a low voice. Su Jin asked: "Can the young lady have something to eat?"
The maid said: "The young lady seems to have lost her appetite. She brought some food in and then some soup."
Su Jin was startled and quickly opened the curtain and entered the room. The red candle in the room was burning high and the fragrance filled her nose. Huan Niang and Xiao Xian'er were sitting on the edge of the bed chatting with Yan Biyun who was wearing a hijab. Yan Biyun thought she had been sitting for a long time and her body was tilted.
Leaning on a small pillow, Xiao Xian'er squeezed her arm.
As soon as Su Jin entered the door, she hurriedly asked: "Sister Yan, haven't you eaten? How can you not eat all day long?"
Xiao Xian'er and Huan Niang were startled. When they saw Su Jin coming in, they stood up and saluted. Yan Biyun also quickly sat up straight.
"Miss drank some soup and just ate some rice but vomited it out." Xiao Xian'er said.
"Is that okay? Hurry up and ask the doctor." Su Jin was mostly awake from alcohol. Yan Biyun was already weak and had been seriously ill twice in a year. He must not take it lightly.
"No, no, no..." Yan Biyun said hurriedly.
"Why not? It's not good to hide a disease and avoid medical treatment." Su Jin turned around and went to call for a doctor.
Xiao Xian'er hurriedly said: "Uncle, don't go...Miss, this is...it's just because of a reaction."
Su Jin asked: "What's the reaction?" He immediately understood and said with a smile: "It turned out to be... the reaction of pregnancy, which shocked me; but since I can drink soup, I might as well ask the cook to get some gruel for two bowls.
, it’s better than an empty stomach, you don’t want to eat the baby but you still have to eat it.”
Xiao Xian'er said angrily: "How can we drink more soup today? Today we can't... we can't go to the toilet. Do you want me to go to the toilet with a hijab on my head? Isn't this a joke?"
Su Jin rolled his eyes, forgetting that this was in the Song Dynasty. There was no bathroom in the room, and he had to go to the latrine to go to the toilet.
Huan Niang winked at Xiao Xian'er, and Xiao Xian'er understood. She stood up and said goodbye and went out. She closed the door and ordered everyone to leave. Xiao Xian'er stood guard at the door.
Su Jin walked forward slowly, sat next to Yan Biyun, held her hand and said: "Sister Yan, from today on, you are my wife, Su Jin."
Yan Biyun's little hands trembled slightly, and she said softly: "Mengjun will not give up, and I will not mind the reputation of the slave family's bad posture. The slave family will repay you, and you will be happy to serve your husband in this life."
Su Jin's heart felt hot, and she used the gold pick to lift Yan Biyun's hijab, but she saw under the phoenix crown and red candles, a beautiful and charming face that was particularly attractive.
"Madam, on the wedding night, when you are most in ecstasy, how about I come and undress you?" Su Jin smiled softly and whispered into Yan Biyun's ear.
Yan Biyun's pink face turned red to the back of her ears, her body became weak for a while, and she leaned on Su Jin's arms: "My family, my family... I'm afraid I won't be able to serve you tonight. The nanny told my family that if you have a baby in your belly, don't do it.
The roommate is here."
Su Jin smiled and said: "If you can't serve me, you can't serve me. Wouldn't it be good for me to hold my wife in my arms and sleep peacefully?"
Yan Biyun whispered: "Why don't I go to the slave family and ask Xian'er to serve my husband for me? The wedding night always has to..." [
Su Jin interrupted her and said: "Tonight is your wedding night and mine. How can you let others disturb you? Don't think too much. You must be really tired after a long day of work. You have to get up early to pay your respects to your mother tomorrow morning. Hurry up."
Let’s get some rest.”
After that, he helped Yan Biyun take off her jewelry, take off her wedding robe, hug her and blow the lamp to sleep.
