Weddings are divided into wedding ceremonies and rites. Marriage is the same time and evening. The three rites are the betrothal and the welcoming letter. The six rites are nacai, asking for name, naji, nazheng, asking for date and personal greeting. Nacai is a proposal.
The name of the woman is asked for advice (because the same surname is not married), Naji is used to divine the appropriateness of the birth date, Nazhi is used to pay the bride price, the request period is used to determine the date of the wedding, and the personal wedding is used to welcome the bride. It is said in the Zhou rites that the woman has arrived.
The man lives at home, so it is not appropriate to marry into a wife and is looked down upon by the world.
Here in Lijiagang, there is a lot of tea and three tea rituals in the mountain village. You can't get married without three teas and six rituals. Li Feng heard some of these from the old man. They seem simple, but there are many rules for each one. At this time, Li Feng just briefly said,
The girl opposite was so surprised that she couldn't speak. To put it simply, Uncle Fu Zheng could have written a book about the rules here.
"I'm sorry, please wait a moment. Let's discuss it." The girl said and gave the phone to Lu Jun. Li Feng and Lu Jun talked about the situation. "I'll get back to you in a while. I didn't expect a wedding to be so complicated.
.”
"More than that, I just asked how many sets of Republican-style wedding clothes there are, including simple suits, mandarin jackets, robes, and girls wearing cheongsams and long skirts. This matter is really complicated. I think they are not willing to pay for it.
, let’s pay for it. We can’t do it without inviting this matchmaker. Uncle Fu Zheng can do so many things outside, but these little rules and small tasks are hard to get started with." Li Feng felt that he was a little dizzy.
Okay, there are too many things going on here.
Li Feng didn't wait any longer. After a while, the phone call came, not from Lu Jun but from a middle-aged woman's voice. "Hello, auntie, yes, I'm in charge here. It's your wife. Congratulations. Haha, the matchmaker is not here."
It's not like you said, the matchmaker here behaves like one. Yes, yes. Iceman, a man of his duty, don't worry about this, you won't be frivolous."
"You can take a look at this first. After all, as the old saying goes, there is no cloud in the sky and it doesn't rain. There is no marriage without a matchmaker on the ground." Li Feng said earnestly for a while. There is no way that three aunts and six wives have a bad reputation in the 360 industry. The third aunt,
Matchmakers and tooth dealers, witches and masters dance. Some witches draw talismans, cast spells, and ask gods for orders. The qianpo is the madam in the brothel. The medicine woman deals with drugs, and the steady woman delivers babies. This was not a good job in the past. In ancient times,
Besides, childbirth often means death. Most of the Wen women will also work as part-time forensic doctors. When the female corpse appears, they will go there to check whether there was any involuntary love behavior before death. Matchmakers are among the six wives, and none of them has a good reputation.
It rarely appears in history. Although there are reports from official media, there are few historical data. Most of them appear in romance novels. Most of them are negative characters.
"We'll talk about this when we get there later. Invite the people here first, and we'll pay for it if you want." The woman thought for a while and said. What should I say about this? My daughter wants to see it for herself first. It's really like Li Feng.
He said that he is not a shady person. This person can be invited. After all, there are not many people who know these rules nowadays. The film must be shown to relatives and friends. If something goes wrong and relatives and friends laugh at it, it will not be good.
.It’s only a few hundred yuan, and my family doesn’t lack that kind of money.
"Okay, if we can't pay for it, how can we leave you alone? Why don't I contact you first for lunch? I'm afraid there are so many people in the May Day Family. There are farmers in the village, and there are
The restaurants in Diaoshuilou specialize in dishes that are absolutely delicious. If you want to be more modern, we also have a green bar that has just opened. You can take a look at the whole layout first. Okay, okay, okay, goodbye." Li Feng thought.
I went back to the time when I contacted the client and finally made an agreement.
"Xiaobao, how's the matter?" Li Fuzheng was busy contacting the suona, bearers, and horses for welcoming the bride. Then there was the old man who presided over the wedding, and the roll call of these neat old people. I don't know if I want these.
.
"Uncle, let's get ready first. Let the matchmaker come over when she has time. This matter has been discussed. We will discuss the rest when the matchmaker comes. Alas, I didn't expect that this matter would be quite complicated." Li Feng sighed.
One bite, this is a simple preparation, if it is done according to ancient rituals, things can be overwhelming. This is just a wedding during the Republic of China, so busy, it really makes people’s heads feel as big as a bucket. Li Feng and Li Fuzheng returned to the oxcart
Taolin Courtyard.
"Dad, come back, wow, the bullock cart, the baby has to sit on it." Baby Li was trying hard to dig out the cicadas with his little butt raised. When he heard the movement, his little head saw Li Feng standing upside down from under his butt, and he quickly threw the shovel and ran over.
Li Feng looked around and saw that the entire pond was full of holes dug by this little guy. Li Feng patted his forehead helplessly and realized that it was the same for these cicadas. It was not good to run far away. They all ran to the edge of the pond.
"Haha, okay, daddy will take you on a bullock cart later. Come here, grandpa." "Hello, grandpa." The name over there in Likouzi is different from that in Lijiagang. Lijiagang is all lined up in a courtyard. Li Fuzheng
In another yard, the eldest of the two brothers, Li Feng, should be called uncle. There is nothing wrong with calling the baby grandpa.
"This is the baby. He's so handsome." Fu Zheng touched the baby's little head. The little girl was still a little afraid to hide when Li Feng stretched out his head. "It's a bit naughty. The baby is going to pour tea for grandpa." Li Feng asked Qi Qi.
They called over. The children in the family were all very polite. Fu Zheng couldn't help but feel envious. His little grandson came back with his parents to work during the Chinese New Year. He was so naughty. Look at other college students, it's different. How well-behaved the children are.
.
"Grandpa, tea." The baby came over cautiously holding a teacup. "Uncle Fu Zheng has a sip of tea first, and I will pack these things." Li Feng untied the rope, and the children carried the small things to the bamboo house first.
Come on, these guys can't be left outside. It's not a problem. It's really not easy to get a sedan chair. I still need help over there.
"Changfa, you two are at home, at Xiao Can's house. You guys just happened to come over. I have something that I can't handle alone." Li Feng hung up the phone and didn't have time. Li Can and the Changfa brothers came over.
"Uncle and aunt are gone?" Li Feng saw Li Can's happy face and guessed that the matter was done. "Well, let's go. I'll go there in the middle of the month. Hehe, it's finally done." "You kid, you are happy now."
"Hehe, I'm really happy about that." Li Can's face was as thick as a city wall. Li Feng smiled and punched him twice. "Okay, let's have a drink at noon. Uncle Fu Zheng can't go back at noon.
"
"Okay, I heard a lot of people say that your craftsmanship is good. Let's try it today." Li Fuzheng knew that there was something to discuss and did not refuse. Li Feng, Li Can, Long Hair, and Chang Hong told Lu Jun to take up the job.
"Brother Lu is really capable, and now he can make money again." Changfa and Changhong earned a lot from filming, one or two thousand each. Listening to such a big show, they clapped their hands with joy. "Okay.
"Let's talk about the money. Come and help me pack up the sedan." Although the sedan has been separated, these have to be moved to the yard and temporarily installed. This takes a lot of time, otherwise the sedan will swing too much. Not only the bride will not be able to
It's comfortable, but the bearer is tired.
"Work." Changhong and Changfa started working. Li Fuzheng said that they were both strong and capable, and the matchmaker came to see if they could find a wife.
"Uncle Fu Zheng, you have to worry about this. The income of these two boys is not low now. They work in Uncle Fu Sheng's green bar. They earn two thousand a month each and still manage food. There is a scheming mother-in-law who has two thousand dollars left a year.
It's quite easy to get 10,000 yuan. Besides, just from making movies, the two of them have an income of 10,000 to 20,000 yuan a year. How can a house be built in a year or two? No, I will pay for the rent first." Li Feng knew that the two of them had some problems.
Damn, this one is no worse than anyone else when it comes to finding a real wife who can live a good life. Let the matchmaker help you find her. She knows a lot of people, and it is best to be honest. She has too many ambitions. She can't live a good life, and she doesn't have too many requirements for her appearance.
"Okay, you two are good. Your uncle Fuzheng has taken care of this for you." Li Fuzheng didn't expect that the two boys would be successful.
"We are learning from Brother Xiaobao. Haha, we don't have any skills. A few days ago, Xiaobao gave us both 10,000 yuan. Neither of us wanted it. My dad told us to follow Brother Xiaobao from now on."
This kid with long hair was not stunned. Li Feng and Li Can looked at each other and both of them smiled.
"That's true. If you follow your brother Xiaobao's skills well, you might be better than anyone else in the future." Li Fuzheng didn't expect that Li Feng would give him so much money at once.
"Uncle Fu Zheng, this is what they deserve. I have been working hard for two months and I don't want to give them any money. I feel bad. You two should stop talking about this in the future and work hard at Green Bar. You usually film and take care of the grounds at home."
Now, I will marry an honest and responsible woman and I will give birth to a big fat boy next year and call me uncle." Li Feng said with a smile. After a while, everything in the bullock cart was moved down, and Man Ying was busy in the greenhouse.
Li Xiaoman, Xiaoqing heard the noise and came over.
"Li Feng, is this a sedan?" Xiao Qing saw it for the first time. Although it was not assembled completely, it was still possible to tell. Li Feng nodded, this is not just a sedan. Li Fuzheng's sedan is made of high-quality materials.
Wood, and it is a large sedan, which was not allowed in ancient times. There are grade restrictions for four-person sedans. After Zhao Gou of the Southern Song Dynasty abolished the ban that only the royal family could use sedans in the Northern Song Dynasty, the sedan entered a stage of rapid development. Officials of the Ming and Qing Dynasties
There are extremely detailed rules for the type, rank, color and pattern of sedans. For example, the sedan in front of you is made of bright red colored silk, and is embroidered with auspicious patterns such as flowers of wealth, red phoenixes rising to the sun and pictures of a hundred sons, and decorated with
Gold and silver are used to enhance the lively and festive atmosphere. Not only that, but also the auspicious pattern of dragon and phoenix. Whoever used this in ancient times has a small life, unless you are a royal emperor.
"Yeah, how have you seen it before?" Li Fuzheng's sedan is very strange. It is not a hard-clothed sedan, but a soft-clothed sedan. This is strange. Most of the hard-clothed sedans in the south are hard-clothed sedans. The hard-clothed sedan means that the whole body of the sedan is made of wood. The structure is similar to the top shape of a pagoda with eaves at the four corners. The soft-clothed sedan chair is popular in the northern region of my country. It is covered with red silk curtains around the sedan frame. These red curtains are called sedan curtains.
