Chapter 867 The most beautiful thing in the world

"Ah, I'm sorry, I don't know much about this." Lu Mingfei replied apologetically, reluctant to let go of Eli Yi's hand.

But to Lu Mingfei's surprise, Hui Liyi used her backhand to squeeze Lu Mingfei's hand tightly. She looked at the young priest and said lightly: "I will hold him."

The young priest showed a surprised expression. He didn't know why a girl who looked so well-behaved suddenly became willful.

According to the rules of the wedding in front of the gods, the groom and the bride cannot have physical contact at all before asking the gods to bless them. When the wine priest just walked out of the main hall, the wedding ceremony officially started. The wedding in front of the gods should follow strict rules.

It was a harsh step...but the other party was the head of the Uesugi family, and the young priest did not dare to reprimand her in a harsh tone. He could not afford to offend her.

"But...but..." The young priest was in a dilemma.

"It doesn't matter, whatever Eriki wants to do, just do it according to her ideas." A young voice came from the main hall, coming to the rescue of the young priest, "My brother set the wedding venue at Meiji Shrine, but did not explicitly say so.

It is a wedding in the style of God, so we don’t need to require the bride and groom to strictly follow the standards of God.”

"Yes, yes, I understand." The young priest said respectfully.

In the distance, you can see a long queue coming from the torii gate to the main hall. The two people at the head of the queue have already crossed the gate of the main hall wall. Lu Mingfei holds Eri Yi's hand and welcomes them.

"Uncle, aunt." Lu Mingfei greeted his uncle and aunt with a smile. He was quite happy. Although he had never had a wedding before God, Lu Mingfei at least knew what it meant to be at the front of the queue on such an occasion.

Principal Ange, the heads of the Sheqiba family and the elders all lined up behind their uncles and aunts. This arrangement of the Sheqiba family really gives them face.

"Mingfei, Hui Liyi, what you are wearing looks great!" Aunt looked at the clothes on Lu Mingfei and Hui Liyi, her eyes full of novelty.

Lu Mingfei was wearing dark-colored haori clothing with a white kimono underneath. This was the most popular kami-style ceremonial dress among the families of military attachés in the Muromachi period of Japan, and Eri was also wearing the "white kimono" commonly worn by kami-style wedding brides underneath.

"Stainless" dress.

But the "Shiro no Ku" suit worn by Eri is different. The hem of this dress is sewn with red silk thread. The overall look is just like the red and white suit that Eri often wears.

Miko costume, Eriyi just saw this dress, and she was very happy when she knew she was going to wear this to marry Lu Mingfei, because it was Eriyi's favorite color.

Eli Yi and Lu Mingfei also dressed like this when they first met. The crimson red and clean white are really suitable for this innocent girl. However, their uncle and aunt have never seen Eli Yi dressed like this.

I feel that this girl is really old-fashioned when she dresses like this, like a real witch who came out of the mountains.

Needless to say, this must be Yuan Zhisheng's design. No one knows Eli Yi's preferences better than him except Lu Mingfei. I have to say that this brother really did everything for his sister's wedding, from the entire wedding process

From the color design of the dress, he paid no attention to every detail.

In fact, in addition to catering to Eri's preferences, Minamoto's designs like this should also have her own selfish motives.

In Shinto belief, white symbolizes the purity of the bride. The pure white dress means that the bride's personality is like a blank sheet of paper. All the bad habits and interpersonal relationships developed in her mother's family will be erased, and she is waiting to learn from her husband's family.

All family traditions and customs are like a piece of white paper waiting to be dyed again, so the wedding in front of the gods is a symbol of the beginning of a new life, and also represents the end of the original old life... For ancient Japanese women, getting married means leaving the past.

Say goodbye completely and start a new life starting from the wedding.

The "white dirt" on Eriyi's body is dyed with other variegated colors, which means that Minamoto Zhisheng does not want Eriyi to become a piece of white paper. He does not want this girl to deny her life of the past twenty years...

...Even a lonely life, a life spent in a small, isolated room like a grid, is evidence of Eri's existence.

Lu Mingfei has no objection to this at all, and even feels that he has to be close to Yuan Zhisheng... Eryi has such a caring brother, as her future husband, I can't compare you to him!

Eri wears a pure white brocade hat on her head. This hat looks really cute on her head. According to the god-like belief, this hat can protect the bride from the devil. In fact, its actual function is to prevent the cold.

The clothing used metaphorically is like the veil of a Western wedding dress. It is used to slightly cover the bride's face from the beginning to the end of the wedding ceremony, so that only the groom can see it.

Before Lu Mingfei could say a few words to his aunt, a figure slowly walked over from the direction of the side hall. He walked delicately towards Hui Liyi and put a colorful and exquisite small coat on Hui Liyi's body.

"It was just finished over there. Your brother asked me to deliver it for you." Uesugoshi showed a fatherly smile that he had never seen before towards Eriko.

"Thank you, dad." Eriyi also smiled.

Uesugoshi froze for a moment and turned his head away. The corners of his mouth were grinning almost to the base of his ears. The nails in his sleeves were pinching his flesh hard. Eri Yi's "Daddy" almost made him faint.

"I'll ask you to deliver the clothes in person, please." Lu Mingfei rushed to Shangyue and bowed slightly.

Uesugoshi's eyes fell on Lu Mingfei. He originally wanted to say something bad about this kid, but when he thought that his uncle, aunt, teacher and principal were behind him, and today was such an important day, Uesugoshi said a few bad words.

He suppressed his anger and said with a straight face: "Well, not bad, I finally look like a man."

"Thank you, your way of complimenting others is quite unusual." Lu Mingfei also held back his bad words and did not dare to say them.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In the end, Uesugi patted Lu Mingfei's shoulder a few times in an affirmative manner, and this euphemistic conversation ended. As for how hard Uesugi slapped, it depends on the road.

You can tell how painful Mingfei's coughing look is.

When their uncle and aunt saw Uesugi Koshi coming, they immediately made way for him in the queue. After all, they were just Lu Mingfei's elders, not his parents. They had met Uesugi Koshi and knew that he was Eriki's biological father.

Knowing that this was a super big shot who could donate a large piece of land worth more than one billion U.S. dollars with just a wave of his hand, the uncle and aunt thought that they must show respect to this old gentleman... In fact, both of them were a little frightened.

But Uesugoshi shook his head, walked around to the other side of his uncle and aunt, joined his uncle and aunt in a row, and stood directly behind Eriki.

"How about you stand at the front?" Uncle asked Uesugoshi in a low voice.

"That would be great, the elders of the two children can be with them." Uesugi shook his head and his voice floated to the front.

Lu Mingfei's heart was moved, and his eyes were a little sore. He felt the force coming from his hand, and Eri Yi's mood was also a little unstable, because Uesugoshi's words were too lethal to the two lonely children.

Big.

In a person's life, you may be able to survive many major events on your own, such as going to and from school alone, going to the hospital alone, or even attending weddings or funerals alone. But if you can occasionally find someone to accompany or rely on, even just once or twice.

, a child’s lonely life can also be cast with a light layer of happiness.

"Eri's clothes look pretty good in this dress." The socialite uncle was afraid that the atmosphere would be too dry, so he took the initiative to find a topic to praise Eri's clothes, "It's very exquisite, is it purely hand-sewn?"

"This dress is called 'Color Uchikake'. It originated from the Muromachi period and was a popular dress during the Ooku period. The piece on Eri's body was handmade by twelve craftsmen. This was my idea." Uesugoshi explained, "Only

If it's 'Bai Wugu', the color is still too monotonous. On festive days, you should wear more festive colors."

"Oh oh oh, it turns out there is such a far-reaching background. You have such a good taste." The uncle nodded, not because he was trying to flatter Sugoshi, but mainly because the "colored uchikake" on Eri's body was too exquisite.

, almost like a work of art stolen from a museum booth.

"This dress must not be cheap!" Auntie thought that this little coat would cost at least thousands of dollars.

"Fortunately, it's not expensive." Uesugoshi said lightly, but did not mention the specific number.

If you tell me, you will probably scare your aunt to death!

The origin of "Uchikake" dates back to the Muromachi period. At that time, wealthy samurai women would wear coats on the kimonos with inner sleeves from autumn to spring. Because of the thick material, they had a thermal effect. Until the Edo period, Ookuzhong shen

Women with higher status, superior female officials and public women will also wear "daqi" to highlight their status.

Until the late Edo period, some women from wealthy families also used "Ukake" as wedding clothes. It seems that "Ukake" is a special dress for women with high status, but this is not entirely true, except for women with high status.

The people who really started to wear "Ukake" among the people were a group of daifus and oirans in Yoshiwara and Kyoshimahara in Edo. "Ukake" was modified and became their orthodox dress. Their gorgeous appearance made Edo people

Commoner women are fascinated by it, but a piece of "double hanging" is worth a lot of money and is definitely not something ordinary families can afford. Therefore, it has become an exclusive item of clothing for upper-class women so that they can be as dazzling and seductive as court ladies.

people.

Until modern society, "dakake" has even transcended the category of luxury goods and has become a real collection and work of art. A "dakake" carefully sewn by a craftsman can even be auctioned for a six-figure price!

And if the money from Eri's clothes goes to the market and is auctioned, it can probably replace her aunt's old two-bedroom house with an improved house with three bedrooms and one living room in the city center with fine decoration.

The crisp bell rang, and the teams that were originally talking about each other in small groups suddenly fell silent. The priests walked out of the side halls on the left and right of Ce and lined up side by side at the door of the main hall.

This is the wedding bell.

A young man wearing a black kimono crossed the threshold of the main hall. His wooden clogs made a crisp sound when he stepped on the road paved with marble slabs. He held a copper bell in his hand and rang it gently with every step he took.

, although he was smiling, his eyes were serious, solemn and solemn.

Fengjian Liuli stopped right in front of Lu Mingfei and Eli Yi, looking at the couple who were having their wedding with pleased eyes. Fengjian Liuli was appointed by Yuan Zhisheng to host today's wedding, but when he saw Lu Mingfei

However, the look in Warii's eyes is that of a gentle brother and a sincere best friend.

"Hello everyone, I am down by Fengjian Liuli. I am honored to be the host of today's wedding." Fengjian Liuli looked at everyone and said slowly, with a gentle and pleasant voice, "Now we will enter the ceremony and the wedding procession. Please, please

Follow us in an orderly manner.”

As he said that, Kazama Ruri slowly turned around, and the priests who walked out of the side hall formed two columns with a wide distance apart, as if they were escorting the team. Girls in witch uniforms stood behind them,

He held an exquisite sterling silver water bowl in his hand.

People holding huge red umbrellas came to the sides and backs of Lu Mingfei and Eli Yi, providing them with two circular patches of shade.

Kazama Liuli took the lead to take the step forward, followed by Lu Mingfei and Eli Yi. Kazama Liuli’s steps were very small, and each step was very slow. Lu Mingfei and Eli Yi walked close to Kazama Liuli.

As the story goes, they were all getting married for the first time and knew nothing about these traditional etiquette.

Lu Mingfei could feel the delicate sweat oozing out of Eliyi's palms... No, no, it was probably him who was sweating. Maybe both of them were sweating. In general, both Lu Mingfei and Eliyi were a little nervous.

, they shouldn’t be holding hands at this stage, but their hands were always held tightly, and no one present criticized this.

At this time, gentle music sounded in everyone's ears.

From the door to the main hall is a road paved with gray marble, about thirty meters long and more than three meters wide. Both sides of the road are fine gravels. The priests who walked out of the side hall stood on the gravels, doing their own things.

The music of his job.

Lu Mingfei glanced at it with his peripheral vision. The priests were holding a bunch of musical instruments that he had never seen before. The few that he could recognize were probably the harmonica and the cucurbit flute. Lu Mingfei had never heard of such a tune.

, a bit like the opening song used by Ruri Kazama when she performs stage plays, and a bit like the soothing soundtrack in Hayao Miyazaki's healing movies... It's such a beautiful music. Lu Mingfei knew that Yuan Zhisheng must also be in this link.

A lot of effort was put into it.

Because the last time he and Eriki came to Meiji Shrine, they saw people getting married, and it was also a wedding in front of a god, but the music at that time... Can the trumpet and short trumpet play any moving music? The music played that time,

It’s almost like a spiritual conjuration!

The cool touch fell from the sky, coming from the witches holding water bowls. In their hands, they twisted fresh peach blossom branches picked from the mountains, dipped the pure mountain spring water from the bowls, and sprayed it on Lu Mingfei and Eriyi.

, it feels like a gentle drizzle on the skin.

In the early spring of 2012, the most beautiful thing in the world is happening
