The tenth day of the lunar month is a day where even the weather is good.
In Guo Jiayue's boudoir, Xiao Yanyu had put on new clothes early and arrived. He envied her sister Jiayue, who put on a bright red embroidered robe and twirled in front of Xiao Yanyu.
"Wow, she's so beautiful, like a rosy bird in the forest." Xiao Yanyu drooled with envy.
"Xiao Yanyu, you will wear something more beautiful in the future." Guo Jiayue wiped her drool, like a sister doting on her sister.
At this time, Guo Jiayue was wearing a red robe, a red shirt underneath, a Tianguan lock collar around her neck, and a silver bracelet given to her by her grandmother on her arm. She was wearing a red skirt, red trousers, and red satin embroidered shoes. It was exactly as Yan Yu said
rose cardinal.
Sitting in front of the dressing table, under the curious and surprised gaze of Xiao Yanyu, a happy lady was rubbing the string on Guo Jiayue's face with her mouth along the string and holding the string with both hands.
"What are you doing?"
"Let's meet." Guo Jiayue smiled.
"What's it for?"
"Make my sister look better."
"My sister is very beautiful."
"You little mouth, how much candy have you eaten?"
"I didn't eat anything today."
I am busy dressing up here, but it seems much more leisurely outside.
Everyone in the escort agency put on their cleanest and most decent clothes. There was nothing to do today. A group of people sat around, cracking melon seeds, and occasionally helping out with small tasks.
According to the rules of the common people in Xiayang City, guests do not come to the door until after noon, so the escort agency at this time is filled with our own people.
There are not many guests coming to visit. According to Guo Shengwen's statistics, there are only two tables of people.
The gongs and drums sound, and the guests arrive.
Guo Shengwu was waiting at the door early.
"Congratulations, Lao Wu."
"Hey, Lao Song, you're here. Come on, come inside. Lao Wen is waiting inside."
...
"Hey, Lao Wu, Lao Wen said that when she gets married, he will take out the wine from the bottom of the box."
"You have to ask Lao Wen about this. I haven't even tasted it. When you see him later, you have to hold him down and don't default on him."
...
"Ah, Aunt Li, you're here, please come in quickly."
...
The guests came one after another. Just when Guo Shengwu thought that the guests had finished arriving, two horses came "tat-tat-tat". Guo Shengwu took a closer look and saw that they were the Sun family's father and son.
As soon as the Sun family father and son got off the horse, two guys from the escort agency came over and took over the horse's reins and the congratulatory gifts brought by Sun Zhiyuan.
"Oh, it's Mr. Sun, Mr. Sun, who is here to welcome you. The Guo family is so splendid." Guo Shengwu cupped his hands towards Mr. Sun and said with a smile.
"Shengwu, who did you learn this art of flattery from? It's really weird for you to say such things." Mr. Sun's face was full of smiles.
"I have to learn some elegant words to embellish this special day."
"Why, if you don't invite us in to sit for a while, are you chasing us away after accepting the gift?" Looking at Guo Shengwu's unmoved look, Master Sun said sarcastically.
"Wherever this is, tea has been prepared. Please come in and invite me in." Guo Shengwu still smiled. Today is his niece's big day, and he can tolerate anything as long as it's not too excessive.
With the arrival of the Sun family, the last guests have also arrived.
The lobby was lively with a bunch of people talking and laughing. Only the place where the Sun family and his son were sitting was a little quiet. Fortunately, Guo Shengwen was accompanying him. Although they were fighting to the death in secret, they still had to give them the face they deserved.
Yes, since you are here, I will not be distant and indifferent.
"Master Guo, it seems that your escort agency is doing good things one after another. Good times are just around the corner." Master Sun said leisurely while drinking tea.
"As the saying goes, if you survive a disaster, you will be blessed later." Guo Shengwen stared at Mr. Sun and sighed, but Mr. Sun's expression did not change in his eyes at all because of his words.
Isn't it him?
Guo Shengwen murmured in his heart. He suspected that the last time the escort team was intercepted outside had something to do with him. Although the Sun family did not have that kind of strength, maybe they had some contact with the group of people suspected of being from Black Tiger Mountain.
"Then here, Mr. Sun would like to wish the Guo family's escort agency better and better." Mr. Sun said to Guo Shengwen with his hands in blessing.
"I would like to send you my grandson's good wishes." Guo Shengwen also bowed his hand.
The two people's flattery was noticed by Sun Zhiyuan, who only drank tea and said nothing, and sighed in his heart: Two old foxes.
.......
Because both the Guo and Qu families were members of the escort agency, and they were not far apart, many procedures were simplified and merged. According to the plan, the groom took the bride out, took her to the hall for worship, then returned to the groom's room, and finally held a banquet.
In the backyard, in Guo Jiayue's boudoir, her mother put on a red hijab for her. The groom was already waiting outside the house, and at this time, Guo Jiaqi, who had dressed up, was also there.
"You have to treat my sister well in the future, otherwise..." Guo Jiaqi waved his arms.
"That's natural." Qu Buping, dressed in a groom's outfit, said with a smile.
Guo Jiaqi looked at the sky and said, "The time has come."
Qu Buping nodded and gently knocked on the door three times with his hand. Not long after, the door opened with a "squeak".
Xiao Yanyu supported Guo Jiayue, who had already put on a hijab, and slowly stepped out of the door. Xiao Yanyu handed the red cloth strip with big red flowers in her hand to the groom who was guarding the door.
The groom wears a red wedding ribbon, and the other end of the ribbon is in the bride's hand.
A group of newcomers walked towards the hall with slight steps, and behind them were Guo Jiaqi, Xiao Yanyu, and the only pair of maids in the escort agency.
The people in the hall had separated and stood on both sides, leaving the middle to the newcomers. The sound of drumming outside had already started.
Under the attention of everyone, the newlyweds walked to the entrance of the hall, and the sunset was shining down.
Wedding ceremonies are held at dusk. Dusk is the time when yang comes and goes. As for "couple", the husband is yang and the woman is yin. Welcoming the bride at this time just symbolizes the state of the husband going to welcome and the woman coming back.
A brazier was placed in the middle of the door. The bride, with the help of the groom, stepped over the brazier and walked to the center of the hall.
At the main seats in the hall were the parents of two families, looking at their children with smiles on their faces, or with tears in their eyes.
Guo Shengwu was promoted to be the best man and distributed the lit incense to the newlyweds. After receiving the incense, the newlyweds knelt three times and kowtowed three times to the main god's tablet to offer the incense, pray for the gods' blessings and tell their ancestors the good news.
After the newlyweds offered incense, they stood still.
Guo Shengwu moistened his throat and sang praises.
"Worship the heaven and the earth."
Thank heaven and earth for protecting and nurturing me.
The newlyweds turned around and bowed to the heaven and earth outside the door.
"Second worship to the high hall."
I am grateful to both my parents for their upbringing.
The newlyweds turned around and bowed to their parents.
At this time, the Sun family father and son standing at the door sneered. Sun Zhiyuan secretly said in his father's ear: "Let them really go smoothly?"
"It's not good to be too smooth. How can you see the truth without experiencing setbacks? You think so." Mr. Sun said with a playful smile.
"Then, what should father do?"
"Don't go too far. The dog will bite when it is anxious. Just give it a little color. It depends on the father." Mr. Sun raised his wrist slightly. I don't know when, there was an extra finger between his two fingers.
A medium-sized stone.
At this time, the newlyweds were preparing to perform the third ceremony.
Just when Mr. Sun had gathered his strength to give the newcomer a "surprise", a young man's back blocked him, causing Mr. Sun to take back his hand.
Sun Zhiyuan looked at the familiar figure from behind and shouted in a deep voice: "It's you again, what are you doing here?!"
Chen Mo heard the deep angry roar behind him, turned around and said lightly: "Can't I stand here?"
"You're blocking me here, you peasant ruffian." Sun Zhiyuan scolded.
"If it's an eyesore, move it yourself." After Chen Mo finished speaking, he turned back.
While they were arguing, the third prayer was completed.
"Husband and wife greet each other."
I am grateful to have you for the rest of my life, and I will give you lots of guidance.
The newlyweds face each other and worship each other.
"After the ceremony, we send you to the bridal chamber."
Amid the cheers and blessings of the crowd, the pair of pedestrians slowly left.
Watching the newlyweds successfully complete the ceremony, Sun Zhiyuan was so angry that he stamped his feet.
"You brat, you have ruined my good deeds over and over again, please be careful."
Chen Mo ignored him and left indifferently.
"Who is he?" Mr. Sun asked, looking at Chen Mo's leaving figure.
"A rural relative of the Guo family has a lot of brute strength and doesn't understand any rules." Sun Zhiyuan explained.
"Then you still argue with a country boy, and you have lost your status."
"Yes, that's what my father taught me." Although Sun Zhiyuan said this, he had already decided to cut this kid into pieces.
After the etiquette was over, everyone was waiting for the meal.
Xiao Yanyu pulled Xiao Jiaxing and followed the newlyweds, followed by several people from the escort agency. After all, it was impossible to let the newlyweds off so easily.
The door of Qu Buping's room was crowded with "good guys". Qu Buping took the bride to the bedside and sat down. When he came to the door, as soon as he opened the door, a group of "good guys" rushed in and teased her in various ways.
The groom and the groom can only greet each other with a smile.
After the fun, everyone still had something to say, but at this time, the bride already had a rolling pin in her hand. Everyone dispersed in a hurry, leaving only two ignorant children, Xiao Yanyu and Xiao Jiaxing.
Looking at the two innocent and ignorant children, Qu Buping took out the candies he prepared and gave them to them. After the two got the candies, they left happily.
There were only two newcomers in the house who had known each other for many years.
Qu Buping picked up the wedding scale and gently lifted his wife's red hijab, and a beautiful face appeared in front of him.
Qu Buping looked at her cheek and gently raised his hand to touch the face that he had not dared to touch since he grew up. A thousand words can be said in just one sentence.
"If you don't live up to your youth, you won't live up to your honor."
Although Guo Jiayue didn't quite understand the meaning, she still chanted along.
"If you don't live up to your youth, you won't live up to your honor."
