Chapter 270(2/2)
"Hahaha, let's go to the church."
Wei Changtian laughed dumbly and reached out to take Xu Qingwan's hand.
However, as the latter's little hand shrank back like an electric shock, he realized that he had been too excited for the moment and had forgotten Yuan'er's instructions yesterday -
Young Master, you must remember not to touch Miss Xu tomorrow until you enter the bridal chamber! Otherwise, others will laugh!
Even if the bridal chamber ceremony is not over, Xu Qingwan is not his wife yet, so she must strictly abide by the rule of "no intimacy between men and women".
Although Comrade Wei Changtian and Comrade Xiao Xu even kissed each other in private, no one saw it, and no one else would know unless they told them.
But now this is a "public place", and there are so many eyes watching every move of the two of them, so it is not appropriate to do this anymore.
Even if Wei Changtian doesn't care, others don't dare to say anything, but Xu Qingwan is a decent girl after all, and if word spreads about it in the future, there is no guarantee that others will gossip about her.
"Ahem, there's a weed on your sleeve."
With a dry cough, Wei Changtian patted Xu Qingwan's long sleeve with some embarrassment, brushed off the non-existent weed, and then tried to take his hand back.
But at this moment.
"Um?"
A warm, moist, and trembling little hand suddenly broke into the palm of his hand and immediately grasped Wei Changtian's fingertips tightly.
Warmth is the rise in body temperature caused by shyness.
Dampness is caused by sweating on the palms due to nervousness.
Trembling is muscle spasm caused by anxiety.
But no matter how shy, nervous, and uneasy he was, between his own face and Wei Changtian's, Comrade Xiao Xu chose the latter without hesitation.
"..."
After being stunned for a moment, Wei Changtian suddenly held Xu Qingwan's little hand back, and immediately walked towards the main hall decorated with lights and colorful lights in the eyes of Yuan'er and Li Suyue with "desperation" in their eyes.
"Walk!"
"Go to the church!"
...
Similar to the previous life, the ritual of worshiping in this world also requires three prostrations.
One bow, heaven and earth.
Although the "heaven and earth" of this world not only did not help Wei Changtian, they even caused trouble for him by the sons of heaven all day long.
But Wei Changtian didn't do anything fancy like "God is nothing, I won't bow to you!" and bowed to the east honestly.
Second bow, high hall.
Compared with "worshiping heaven and earth", Wei Changtian was more willing to "worship Gaotang".
However, because both Wei Xianzhi and Qin Caizhen were still in the capital dealing with the "remnants" of the Liu family, Qin Zhengqiu could only sit in the upper position and accept the blessings of Wei Changtian and Xu Qingwan.
Three greetings, husband and wife.
Wei Changtian also went through this step before when he married Lu Jingyao, but both of them were very perfunctory at the time. What they knew was that the couple was bowing to each other, and what they didn't know was that they thought they were nodding in greeting.
But towards Xu Qingwan, Wei Changtian definitely couldn't have such a perfunctory attitude.
They raised their hands to their chests and bowed seriously, but when they raised their heads, they accidentally bumped their foreheads.
"..."
Looking at the shy Comrade Xiao Xu, Wei Changtian felt that this moment was not perfect, and asked in a low voice: "How about... we pay homage again?"
"ah?"
Xu Qingwan was stunned and nodded weakly: "Well, well..."
Without waiting for Chu Xianping, who was officiating, to speak, the two bowed to each other again, leaving everyone around them stunned.
Only Qin Zhengqiu, who was sitting in the main seat, nodded slightly and praised:
"Chang Tian is so diligent in improving himself!"
"good!"
...
After the worship service, the next program is dinner.
Although in the previous life, the newlyweds had to sit around the table for a toast, but according to true etiquette, the bride was not allowed to show her face during the banquet, but had to go to the "bridal chamber" to wait for her husband.
Xu Qingwan quickly went to the newly decorated new house accompanied by Yuan'er.
Dozens of banquet tables were officially opened in the courtyard.
As the now unknown "King of Shuzhou", Wei Changtian's concubines only had dozens of banquets. This scene seemed a bit shabby.
But in fact, everyone who can come and have a sip of wine today are all famous people in Shuzhou.
And naturally these people cannot come empty-handed.
The long gift list was sent to Chu Xianping, who then selected dozens of "lucky ones" based on the value of the gifts to win the "honor" of having a drink with Wei Changtian.
Of course, Wei Changtian is a cultivator, so if he really wanted to drink it, it would be no problem for everyone present to give him ten laps.
But you still have to take the shelf that needs to be taken.
According to Chu Xianping's words, this is called "the way of serving". Wei Changtian was too lazy to think about it. He drank with dozens of people according to the list provided by the former, and then returned to the main table to start drinking with Qin Zhengqiu and others.
The sun gradually set in the west, then completely fell into the sky.
Dozens of red lanterns were hung high, and the banquet started at Shen Shi and ended at the end of Xu Shi.
There were no remnants of the Liu family who suddenly attacked, no sons of heaven coming to snatch the wedding, and there were not even drunken guests. The normal banquet came to an end in a festive and harmonious atmosphere.
The only thing worthy of praise is that Yangliu Shi asked Wei Changtian to compose a poem. The latter waved his hand and casually recited four sentences——
Last night's stars and last night's wind were to the west of the painting building and to the east of Guitang.
There is no colorful phoenix flying wings in the body, but there is a clear understanding in the heart.
The most famous love poem by Li Shangyin, a specialist in "love poetry", is naturally of extremely high standard.
As for everyone's reaction...
There is no doubt that everyone was shocked.
...
At the beginning of Haishi, the moon rises above the stars.
When Wei Changtian walked into the bridal chamber smelling of alcohol, Xu Qingwan was leaning on the table in her wedding robe and writing a letter seriously. She quickly put down her pen when she heard the noise.
"You, have you finished drinking?"
"Um."
Wei Changtian walked over and asked casually with a smile: "Who are you writing to? Your father and mother?"
"no."
Xu Qingwan answered honestly: "It's Zhou Cheng."
"What? Zhou Cheng???"
No, what is the operation of writing a letter to another man on your wedding night?
Wei Changtian was stunned for a moment, but then he thought of something again, and asked tentatively in disbelief:
"You wrote to Zhou Cheng, could it be because of the twenty taels..."
"Um......"
Comrade Xiao Xu nodded sheepishly, and the golden tassel on his head swayed twice.
"For example, now that you have married me, then I have won the twenty taels of silver..."
"I, I want Zhou Cheng to send it to me earlier..."
"..."
Sure enough! I knew it!
Wei Changtian was dumbfounded for a while, then asked suspiciously: "The reason why you married me was just for these twenty taels of silver, right?"
This was actually meant as a joke, but Comrade Xiao Xu became anxious after hearing it.
"No, it's not!"
She waved her hands hurriedly, and at the same time fumbled for a pile of warm banknotes from her chest, and raised them to Wei Changtian's eyes in a panic.
"This, this is all the money I have saved!"
"All, all for you!"
