According to the provisions of "Shihun Rites", weddings in ancient times generally consisted of six steps...namely, accepting, asking for names, accepting gifts, receiving invitations, asking for dates and welcoming relatives. These are the so-called "six rites".
The wedding tradition is here.
No matter how the customs in East Asia changed in later generations, they still basically followed this process and concept.
However, it is just a general follow, because if you really want to follow the steps of "Shihun Rite" and do every action in which direction, it would be too far away from reality. In fact, even Zheng Xuan a few years ago
A corresponding annotation for "Shihun Li" that is more in line with this era is given, but it still seems cumbersome and redundant, making people dislike it.
Therefore, the customs of each place are still the same. As long as the main etiquette such as matchmaking, appointment, and wife's visit has not changed.
As for Gongsun Xun's own wedding, he couldn't keep up with these etiquettes... What really played a decisive role was Mrs. Zhao's pointing finger at her granddaughter while standing on the street. Later, the Gongsun family added
The various etiquette mentioned above are actually just supplementary. But this time sharing a room and entertaining guests are a bit out of etiquette... After all, the bride Zhao Yun has already entered the Gongsun family, and the Zhao family has also
All are far away in western Liaoning.
However, it has to be said that the more straightforward the woman is, the more refined the man must be as much as possible. Therefore, in order to show respect, Aunt Gongsun simply wore glasses and temporarily studied "Shi Shi" annotated by Zheng Xuan.
"Evening Ceremony".
"I read carefully all night," Aunt Gongsun sat on a chair at the top, taking off her glasses with one hand, and holding up a silk book with the other hand trembling slightly. "It's all confusing stuff.
Later, in the middle of the night, I couldn't help it anymore, so I got up from the bed and looked at the candle, but I could only see three useful things between the words of "Shidun Li"!"
Gongsun Xun, who was standing below with his hands tied, suddenly became a little uneasy.
"One is the so-called evening ritual evening, which is actually not a false word, but the evening evening. Everything must be dealt with at evening... No wonder Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were able to steal someone else's wife at night when they were young!"
Gongsun Xun was speechless for a moment.
"The other one is the wild geese. They need wild geese for everything... If this continues for a long time, the wild geese of the Han Dynasty will probably be exterminated!" Aunt Gongsun's tone became more and more unkind. "I don't know how to protect the resources.
?"
"When we were in western Liaoning, we had already sent geese four times." Gongsun Xun saw this and quickly comforted him. "Just add one more this time!"
"The last one is to pull out all the nails on the pig's trotters when steaming the pig!" Aunt Gongsun didn't even pay attention to her son. Instead, she couldn't bear it at all. She directly clenched the silk book into a ball and threw it to the ground. "
What do you mean by this?! What’s the use of removing the nails on the pig’s trotters when steaming the pig? Don’t you know that the pig’s trotters are the most delicious?”
Gongsun Xun was also confused for a moment.
"That's it!" Aunt Gongsun was so angry that she felt helpless. "Just follow what's mentioned above, and you'll save the guests a joke..."
After all, it was Aunt Gongsun who had the final say. Since she nodded, Gongsun Xun naturally breathed a sigh of relief.
By the way, since there are guidelines for the last step of the wedding, Pingcheng will inevitably become more lively day by day from the second day on.
Not to mention anything else, just around the two houses in the south and north of the city that serve as the gates of the man and the woman's home, almost the entire Pingcheng children gather in these two places every day, just to grab the fixed distribution at noon and dusk.
Happy money twice.
Of course, what really makes the whole Pingcheng lively are the guests who come from all over the country as the wedding date approaches... Not to mention the local wealthy families and officials in Yanmen, but the Fang Bo of Bingzhou, Liangzhou, Shanggu, and Dai
The prefect of the county and even someone as confused as the Zhen family in Zhongshan sent people to congratulate him, which was inevitably shocking.
These so-called 'nobles' gathered in large numbers in a small Pingcheng, and it was inevitable for them to communicate and get to know each other. For a time, it was said that all the virtuous people had arrived, and all the young and old had gathered... Even the groom's official Gongsun Xun took the opportunity to pose.
A famous disciple of Confucianism in the country gave a public lecture on "Mao's Poems" to young sages from all over Yanmen in the city on a very hot afternoon!
It is said that the atmosphere at the scene was so enthusiastic that five people were so excited that they fainted!
In addition, the Cuju competition at the military camp in the north of the city is also very exciting... Well, on the occasion of Gongsun Xun's wedding, it was initiated by Lou Gui and organized by Lu Fan. These days, the army has a special competition every day.
A 'Wedding Cup' was made! Three days before Sima's wedding, the final winner, the team from Jiuyuan Cavalry Tunnel, was personally given wine by Gongsun Sima's mother, Gongsun Auntie!
As for the small engraved gold cup used to give wine, it was awarded to the team leader Wei Yue who performed best in public!
For a moment, everyone was really paying attention!
But I don’t know when, another matter gradually became the focus of private attention of these Yanmen wealthy families, and gradually became public and intense... That is the Amway number in the family of Gongsun Sima!
By the way, this Amway store not only has a wide variety of eye-opening fresh goods for you to choose from, but also delivers them! Tartary buckwheat, wolfberry, almonds, daylilies from the mountains... Although everyone knows that these have some uses in daily life,
But most of them can only rot in the mountains. They are all open to buying them. It is said that they will be sold to Bohai and Liaodong. Anyway, they don’t have to worry about sales!
And one of the rules of this Amway number that these wealthy families can't stop is that if your mountain forest and Wubao can guarantee annual output, you can obtain the corresponding offline level qualifications of the Amway number. And if one person has the corresponding offline qualifications
, you can use the corresponding discount to buy a certain amount of goods from Amway!
Not to mention the groceries, there are paper, books, pen and ink, grain, salted fish, cloth... There are even some exquisite silver ingots said to be produced in western Liaoning, all of which are discounted!
You know, grain and cloth are generally equivalent items these days, and silver is a rare precious metal in the Han Dynasty. This kind of discount is simply a gift, isn't it?
According to the rules of Amway, if you can personally contribute to this store, such as organizing supply sources, caravans, or simply assisting Amway in opening a branch and warehouse somewhere, then these benefits will be counted on you.
on, and then further improve your downline level and various delivery qualifications!
Ever since, I don’t know when, on the streets of Pingcheng, people riding horses, riding cars, and even walking, if everyone didn’t ask each other, “Do you know about Amway?”
Shameful! Moreover, it seems that because of this, the number of wealthy Yanmen people attending the wedding is increasing day by day!
And on the day before the wedding, as Governor Guo came here in person to congratulate his grandson Sima, Pingcheng's newly appointed Amway boss revealed the last thing that stunned all the Yanmen wealthy families... It turns out that if it is your subordinate.
When your line level reaches a certain level, you can actually be allowed to develop your own downlines, and then count part of the downline's contribution to yourself!
In other words, if you consider that you can buy certain goods only with the third-level qualification of the second-level offline, then one day, I am afraid that you can make a profit just by relying on this offline qualification.
Such a good thing, why did it wait until today for Yanmen County’s turn?!
To put it another way, how could those bastards from Daijun and Shanggu dare to cut off our financial path and not allow Amway to come over?!
Or even to put it another way, why did this grandson Sima come to our Yanmen to be the Sima of our department at the age of twenty?! Couldn't it have been seven or eight years earlier... half a year earlier?!
However, behind this rapid recovery of prosperity is not that simple.
You'll understand when you think about it.
If the Amway had not planned to use Pingcheng as an important base, carry out large-scale construction projects here, and use work as a relief, where would it be the children's turn to grab the wedding money? I'm afraid the adults would have to fight for it!
If Guo Mian hadn't lowered his face and collected a large amount of food, the people's hearts would have been in chaos long ago. How could anyone have the heart to follow the Amway's massive construction work? They would have become bandits long ago!
If it hadn't been for the 'Wedding Cup', the garrison in Pingcheng would have been united by Qu, Tuen, and teams, and coordinated with the county soldiers to attack in turns, sweeping away the bandits in the northern area of Yanmen, breaking up the troops, and driving them to build roads and open canals.
Where did so many goods of all kinds come from and were sent to Pingcheng? I'm afraid they were all 'consumed' halfway through!
If the previous grain collection period had not ended, Guo Yu and Gongsun Xun would have lost their temper and sent Cheng Pu and Gao Shunyuan to Lu County, the southernmost part of Yanmen, to lay down two forts in the Taihang Mountains for some unknown power, and then exterminate their clans in public.
, kill the chicken to scare the monkeys, where did a large group of Yanmen tycoons come from, braving the heat wave, waiting in Pingcheng for more than half a month, just waiting for Sima, who is more than a thousand stones, to get married? Wouldn't it be beautiful to eat a big white pear at home with deep well water?!
Of course, there is an additional person who must be praised here, and that is Tanshihuai Khan who was burned down in Danhan Mountain.
If it weren't for this wise and mighty steppe hero slapped Xianbei in the west on the face, and then ran to the east to snatch Japanese people as fishermen slaves, then Gongsun Xun would still be struggling on the Great Wall at this time... I'm afraid he couldn't even get to the bridal chamber.
No one can get in.
But no matter what.
At the turn of summer and autumn in the sixth year of Xiping (AD 177), Gongsun Xun and his newlywed wife enjoyed the little pig without nails, drank the bitter wine made from 庺 (bitter gourd), and entered the bridal chamber.
After that, the entire Yanmen was unknowingly recasting its order in an untimely prosperity!
"I wonder why Mr. Xi is called Yun?" Gongsun Xun followed the last step of etiquette and untied his wife's colorful crown, but then asked a question that puzzled the other party. "Isn't this the same name as my father-in-law?"
Is it heavy?"
Gongsun Xun's father-in-law, who was granted the title of Marquis of the Countryside, was named Zhao Bao. Bao started with the prefix Cao, and so did Yun... This is indeed a bit strange.
"I won't hide anything from you." Under the candlelight, Zhao Yun replied with a little embarrassment. "This matter is related to the original meaning of the word Yun, and there is also a story..."
"Tell me about it." Gongsun Xun asked curiously while helping the other party take off the colorful crown.
Zhao Yun couldn't help but lowered her head slightly: "Yes... it's like this. When my mother gave birth to me, she was weak and the medical divination was ineffective, and there was almost an accident. Then one day my father held me in his arms and watched "Huainanzi".
When I saw the word Yun, I couldn't help but sigh, and said to my grandmother, since my mother had such a bad experience because of my birth, why not call me Yun and use the effect of Yun to bring the dead back to life to heal my mother, and my mother turned out great!"
Gongsun Xun immediately held his wife's hands and praised: "This is an interesting thing."
"Indeed." Zhao Yun couldn't help but feel a little shy. "Later, my father gradually felt that something was wrong. He wanted to change it several times, but was stopped by my grandmother... To be honest with you, outsiders may know my name by chance. I'm afraid
They all thought my Yun was a cloud of clouds!"
"Even my mother thought you were that Yun at first!" Gongsun Xun couldn't help laughing, and then put a hand on the other person's waist.
Zhao Yun's face was red, but she still raised her head slightly and said: "Actually, now that I think about it, it is also the fate of Lang Jun and I. The names of you and me are both taken from "Huainanzi", one is the jade, the other is the sacred grass, and the other is the sacred grass.
They also complement each other.”
Gongsun Xun nodded slightly: "There is indeed such a level of fate, but it may not be as interesting as that..."
Zhao Yun couldn't help but panic: "What does Mr. Lang mean?"
Gongsun Xun immediately laughed again: "Teng's wife should have taught you something before Xijun came to Yanmen. In that case, do you know what seven in and seven out are?"
After saying this, Gongsun Xun finally couldn't bear it anymore and pushed his wife onto the marriage bed, preparing to complete the last step of his life's major event.
Blow out the candles and turn off the lights, take off your clothes and take off your skirts, even if a cat suddenly meows from under the bed, you can't even care about it.
————I am the dividing line between taking off clothes and taking off skirts————
"When the master comes out, the wife returns to her position. It is placed in the room, as if it were placed in the room for use, whether it is respected or not. The master persuades the room, and the concubine accepts it; the woman persuades the room, and the concubine accepts it. The mother gives the scarf.
The banquet is in the east, with pillows on both sides, and ends in the north. When the host enters, he kisses his wife's tassel, and candles come out." - "Shihun Li"
PS: Embarrassing... Now I basically cash out the code every night, but today's condition is really bad... I hope everyone can understand. In fact, if it doesn't work, I can just watch it the next day. I'm sorry, everyone. Sorry.
