Today is the wedding day!

When it was still dark, Yu Xiaobao opened his eyes. He couldn't think of any difference between this day and the past. The house was quiet. Lying on the bed, he could vaguely breathe a little bit of the anxiety on the bed.

The smell of paste - he found this bed from the ruins of the wall. Although there were some burnt places, it was still in good condition overall. After a few repairs, it became his new bed. In fact, there are only a few simple pieces of furniture in this house.

, are all picked up in this way.

He was so anxious that when he heard the rooster crow, he jumped up and opened the door. He saw that it was a hazy dawn with a reddish sky. The wind blew on him, but he didn't feel cold at all.

My heart is burning.

"From today on, I am no longer alone."

Yu Xiaobao whispered to himself.

On this day, in more than a dozen villages near Jinan, thousands of men in their prime were all, like Yu Xiaobao, full of longing for the future.

They went out early in the morning and walked towards Jinan City. They knew that their bride was waiting for them there. With excitement, their pace even accelerated a lot involuntarily...

The twelfth day of the second lunar month in the twelfth year of Chongzhen was an auspicious day for marriage.

The city of Jinan was very lively on this day. This city, which had not yet recovered from the trauma of the war, was full of joy. There were even flower towers erected at the damaged city gates, with words written all over them.

There is a big word "happiness" in it. The flower tower made of wood is not only full of flowers, but also made of many silks and satins provided by the Prince's Mansion.

Today is the day to hold a mass wedding.

A thousand couples held their wedding at the university grounds in the city. This was the first time for Jinan and even for Ming Dynasty that such a grand collective wedding was held.

As the matchmaker for these thousands of newlyweds, when Zhu Guoqiang came to the school grounds, he saw the sea of ​​people outside the school grounds, which could be described as "a crowd of spectators." He never thought that the impact of this collective wedding would be so great! He knew but

Everyone always likes to "watch the fun". But he really didn't expect that so many people would come to watch at once.

"This is also a good thing. At least from today on, the people of Jinan will know that if you fight with the prince, you will not only have houses and fields, but also women..."

However, for no reason, several other words appeared in Zhu Guoqiang's mind - robbing money, robbing food, robbing women...

Perhaps this is also the reason why the Qing army was able to win every battle after entering the customs. After all, the feudal army always needed some material encouragement, and robbery was undoubtedly the best motivation.

"In a few years, you can go to Liaodong to grab a chance."

With this thought in his mind, Zhu Guoqiang, who came to the wooden platform of the school field, cast his eyes on the newlyweds in the field - the grooms who were waiting anxiously in line, occasionally casting their eyes into the distance. They were wearing various robes,

The colors vary, but most of them are 80% to 90% new clothes. Speaking of which, these clothes themselves are part of the atrocities committed by the Qing Dynasty - they were all captured in the Qing army camp.

The invading Qing troops looted almost everything they could, including the clothes in people's homes. This would have been their spoils of war, but now they were rewarded to these strong men. After all, when they were rescued from the human trap,

They have nothing but a piece of clothing. Even a few old clothes are extremely rare for them, especially at this time. Although the clothes are of different colors, the ones on their chests are

A red silk flower showed their identity. Today they are the grooms.

They would always cast their eyes expectantly to the shed in the distance, where women with red cloths on their heads were sitting - those women were their brides. Although they didn't know the bride's appearance or temperament, they were still happy.

Hehehe giggled.

While the newlyweds were waiting with great expectations, the people on the human wall outside the fence could not help but look at them one by one. Many of them had even climbed to the top of the fence and sat on it from time to time.

He also pointed at the women with red headscarves in the shed. Their eyes were full of envy.

The atmosphere was a bit more lively than expected, and this festive mood also infected Zhu Guoqiang. As the planner of the entire wedding, although he consulted a lot of information, he even found a wedding company in another world to provide him with a wedding plan.

plan, but he still tensed up his nerves - after all, the larger the group activity and the more links, the greater the possibility of problems. What's more, he had no experience in hosting weddings at all.

"Your Majesty, the auspicious time has come!"

Song Xuezhu's reminder made the somewhat nervous Zhu Guoqiang nodded, and then said.

"let's start!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the soldiers beside the wooden platform waved their corner flags, and the already noisy campus immediately erupted with a sharp suona sound, and the "band" of hundreds of people immediately started playing music.

, the suona, known as the king of music, first played the tune, and then the gongs and drums started to play. The melody played was not something Zhu Guoqiang was familiar with, but the joy of this era. Although he didn't understand it, it sounded like it.

It’s also quite a celebration.

At the same time, tens of thousands of firecrackers that had been hung on both sides of the high platform also exploded with "cracking" sounds. The firecrackers were specially bought by Zhu Guoqiang from another world as "carpet red" - the firecrackers were wrapped in thick red paper and exploded into pieces.

After that, red paper was everywhere. Not to mention it was beautiful and festive, it looked like a red carpet. Before the ban, it had always been the only choice for festive days.

With the sound of firecrackers here, the maids in palace attire helped the brides under the shed to walk towards the front row. The moment they walked out of the shed, the crowd of onlookers became excited.

The bride is here!

The bride is here...

People were shouting loudly there.

At this moment, these orphan girls whose families were massacred are wearing a grand outfit - although the clothes are not bright red auspicious clothes, they are still palace clothes made of fine materials. These palace clothes were all found in the palace.

Only on grand and festive days, the maids would put on such dresses. Now, these dresses have become the bride's wedding dress. And the red hijab that covers the bride's face has become a symbol of their identity as a bride.

There is no way to keep everything simple for a collective wedding. After all, even with the support of the productivity of another world, Zhu Guoqiang is not willing to waste his "luck" on the couple's wedding clothes. But now it seems that everything is not bad
Chapter completed!
