Chapter 101 The wedding day

The rude man turned around, looked at Yan Qing suspiciously, and snorted coldly: "You little brother, don't bother me! There are many of you, so I won't tangle with you."

Yan Qing said with a smile: "My brother Xiao likes to make friends with good men. This good man is good at fists and kicks. It's too late for our house to entertain such good people, so how can we embarrass the good man? Do you dare to ask the good man his name?"

The rude man shouted angrily: "I have no name or surname! Just put aside the dispute, but don't lie to me with your words!"

Zheng Tianshou was knocked down twice by the arrogant man, and he was so angry that he had nowhere to vent his anger. Hearing what the arrogant man said again, he immediately cursed: "Pull the bird! Don't be shameless!"

The rude man was angry again and was about to scold him again. Yan Qing immediately advised the rude man and said: "We are all at odds with each other, so let's just have a fist fight. A good man has no hatred overnight, and it is not a grudge to the sky, so why keep arguing? ?This eldest brother is walking in the rivers and lakes. He should also know the name of Xiao Renxia in Daming Mansion. Since it is not a big deal, how can we get entangled with you, eldest brother?"

The rude man admired Yan Qing's ability, and saw that he was polite, so he replied: "I also know Xiao Renxia's name, but my words are unscrupulous and often offend people. , then how can Xiao Tang be friends with me?"

Yan Qing heard that the man's tone had softened a bit and he was no longer as wary as before, so he smiled and said: "If this elder brother can trust me, I would like to make an introduction for you. It is better to settle down here than to be a person in the world." A rootless duckweed living in the open air?"

The rude man thought about it for a while and found out that he had mastered a unique skill passed down from his family and was trying to make a living by doing sumo wrestling. However, he spoke rudely and liked to argue with others, so he spent several years in the world and offended many people. There were many places to go that could save him from the pain of wandering around, but he could never find them.

This little brother is friendly in speech and has good health. I don’t expect him to play tricks on me... Thinking of this, the rough man replied: "My name is Jiao Ting, and I am from Zhongshan Prefecture, Hebei Province. My ancestral family name is Three generations of sumo wrestlers have made a living. It has been passed down from father to son. If I don’t teach disciples, others call me shameless Jiao Ting. I want to find a place to join the gang, but there is no way. If I can recommend a name to Xiao Tang for me. Thank you very much."

Zheng Tianshou was not angry, and when he was about to speak, Xu Guanzhong, who had been watching from the sidelines, persuaded him to stop and said: "This man is good at boxing. Brother Xiao is a man who loves talents. Brother Tianshou is also an upright man. Why bother with him?" Pregnant?"

"I know this!" Zheng Tianshou said angrily: "It's just that if you want to meet such a fool like him with your head up but not your head down, I don't know how much anger I will suffer in the future!"

Jiao Ting exchanged a few words with Yan Qing, then said bluntly: "Let's go!"

Yan Qing was startled and asked, "Where are you going, brother Jiao Ting?"

Jiao Ting frowned and said in a naive voice: "Aren't you going to introduce me to that Xiao Tang? Why don't you go?"

Yan Qing shook his head and said with a smile: "Brother Jiao Ting, my brother Xiao is getting married soon. Everything is complicated and he has no time to spare. How can I have the energy to arrange brother Jiao Ting properly at this time? I will arrange a place for brother Jiao Ting and wait for Xiao. My elder brother and his sister-in-law have paid three visits. After the wedding ceremony, I will take Brother Jiao Ting to see Brother Xiao. How about that?"

Now Xiao Tang is indeed very busy. Not only does he have to receive Wu Song, Lu Da, Lu Junyi, Han Shizhong, Wu Li and other guests, decorate the wedding banquet, and provide wedding gifts, but his subordinates are also in charge of the affairs of the guests present that day. If it is done, it must be reviewed and discussed by him.

Moreover, three days before the wedding, according to the wedding customs in the Song Dynasty, Xiao Tang would also send flower buns, gold hijabs, flower fans for five men and two women, pollen boxes and other wedding clothes and powder gifts to the bride's family. In ancient times, it was called the invitation period.

In the Song Dynasty, it was commonly known as urging makeup.

Among them were the betrothal gifts and the decoration of the clothes used on the wedding day, such as the gold-stained yellow sleeves and gold skirts prepared by Hou Jian and the tailor of the clothing shop, as well as the pearls and jade balls prepared by the white-faced man Zheng Tianshou and his silversmiths.

Crown, four o'clock crown flowers, rows of pearls and emeralds, plus the gold necklace, gold rug, gold pendant and three gold pendants that were sent to Pan's house when he was hired, and fine mixed color segments, silk, plus scented tea, fruits, reunion

Every betrothal gift such as cakes and sheep wine must be verified by Xiao Tang one by one.

The day before the wedding, Su Jinniang, Sun Erniang, and Hua Xiaomei were sent to Pan Taigong's house in Kongsongzhuang to wait for the wedding the next day. Pan Taigong also sent the furniture and utensils of the new house to the groom's house, and arranged the new house properly for the newlyweds.

After getting married and getting married, this step is called "building a house" to seek good luck.

After being busy for several days, the wedding day finally arrived.

As soon as it dawned, Xiao Tang took Yan Qing, Xu Guanzhong, Hua Rong, and Xiao Yi as the groomsmen at the chosen time, and led his villagers to hold vases, candles, incense balls, and saros to wash up, put on makeup, and take care of the table.

Dress boxes, clothing boxes, knots, parasols, chairs and other wedding items.

There are also Yang Xu and Yang Lin who serve as street officials and take Liu Yingyan and other oirans to the brothels of famous mansions. In the Song Dynasty, when there were weddings and other events, it was the custom to invite famous prostitutes to the scene to support the appearance.

"Meng Liang Lu" contains: Gu borrowed an official's private license to ride a horse, and asked music officials to encourage him, leading a rattan sedan with flower eaves or rice dumpling eaves to his wife's house to marry the new couple) and the music craftsman in Jinfeng Yulu Tower.

Playing, singing and playing music, we are on our way to celebrate.

At this time, in the Pan Mansion in Kongsongzhuang, Su Jinniang was wearing a red hijab and was sitting quietly in her boudoir wearing a red robe embroidered with clouds. There were also Miss Pan family, Sun Erniang, Hua Xiaomei and others dressed in red to accompany her.

.

Suddenly there was a loud roar of gongs and drums and the blast of firecrackers. Su Jinniang's heart trembled slightly, and she thought: This moment has finally arrived.

Xiao Tang's wedding reception arrived at the door of Pan's Mansion in Kongsongzhuang. Pan's Mansion was also full of red lights and festive colors today. When Xiao Tang entered the house and paid homage to Grand Duke Pan and Mrs. Pan, everyone in Pan's Mansion was filled with excitement.

They also entertained everyone receiving the bride with wine gifts, scattered flowers, red and silver lintels, and gave money to the welcoming team. After a lot of busy work, after Kesei Guan reported the good day and auspicious time, Su Jinniang was finally supported by Sun Erniang and Hua Xiaomei.

, except Pan Fu boarded the sedan chair.

He led the wedding procession all the way to play, play and sing. When they arrived at the gate of Xiao Mansion in Daming Mansion, Wu Zhi and other villagers in Kongsongzhuang in Qingyihe County followed the custom of blocking the door in the Song Dynasty and just sang:

Immortal Era descended to earth, and returned to the cave in all her glory.?

There is a lot of joy in the door today, and there is no need to be frugal with the flower boxes to make a profit.?

The crimson silk silver candle supports Chang'e, and what can be done if there is a clam?

Thousands of brocades are laid out, just like Luanpo in Xiao history.?

The gifts that show up at the door are often expensive, how can they be compared to ordinary street gifts?

You should be satisfied with a hundred thousand cords, but don't throw away three thousand five thousand cords.?

Yan Qing, Xu Guanzhong and others on the groom's side, Xiao Tang, had already responded and replied with a smile:

A gentleman has never cherished gold, but this pursuit has deepened his meaning.?

** Dear relatives, we have a brief chat, so don’t bother introducing us for a long time.?

The cave is just a stone's throw away, so why bother blocking it in front of the door?

It is shameful that there is no profit and the market can be thrown away. It is difficult to retreat without a reason to advance.

Afterwards, after going through the process of scattering grain beans, walking on the carpet, sitting on the empty tent, paying the red door, and making the same knot, Xiao Tang, wearing emerald green clothes with a flowered bun on his head, and Su Jinniang, who was covered with a red hijab, paid homage to Taigong Pan and Mrs. Pan.

At the same time, the wedding banquet to welcome guests in the inner courtyard of Xiao Mansion is about to begin.

At this time, there were many congratulators from the Xiao Mansion. Liang Shijie, the left-behind prime minister of Daming Mansion, had the highest official position. The congratulatory gifts he sent were also the heaviest. Not only were there countless gold, pearls, jade, and flowers, but there were also a number of incense bonfires and a piece of fire called Red Thousand Miles.

A roaring BMW.

The most elegant congratulatory gifts from Xiaoxuanfeng Chaijin of Henghai County were the exquisitely crafted emerald mandarin duck belt and ice flower dove jade. Not only did they wish Xiao Tang and Su Jinniang a happy marriage for a hundred years, they were also very valuable.

of rare treasures.

Others include tea and jade articles sent by Song Jiang of Yuncheng County, calligraphy and paintings, pine ink paper and ginseng medicinal materials sent by Cui Muyuan of Goryeo, as well as gold and silver money from Deng Fei, Bao Xu, Zhou Tong, etc., etc.

When the households in the Tang Dynasty checked the list of gifts, they found that a woman named Tang Pengxiu had sent a number of red-glazed porcelains from Bianliang, Tokyo, decorated with rosy clouds, mandarin ducks, pheasants and other symbols, which symbolized blessings for a happy wedding.

Among the guests present, such as Wen Da, the supervisor of the military and horse forces, and Shi Suo, the deputy commander of the horse army, were introduced by Lu Junyi, the famous jade unicorn in Daming Mansion. They had met Lu Da, Wu Song, Han Shizhong and others. Most of these people were

The generals in the army are also good men who like to fight hard. Together with Hua Rong, Xiao Tang's confidant, the group of heroes have similar interests and have a feeling of regret for meeting each other late.

The two men imprisoned Cai Fu at the festival level, Cai Qing and others at the old prison were imprisoned, and the Yuan and Sili Yuan of Daming Mansion came to congratulate the officials. They sat together and were accompanied by Hou Jian, Shi Yong and other stewards of Xiaotang Mansion.

As for Wu Li, a wealthy businessman from around Daming Mansion and even from Hebei and Hebei, rich businessmen and Weisheng from Hedong came to congratulate him, Yang Xu and some of his subordinates and villagers came to entertain him.

Gold bottles of wine cost ten thousand coins, and jade dishes cost ten thousand coins.

The complicated ceremony and the lively banquet continued for several more hours. It was now three o'clock in the morning, and the bright moon was in the sky. After Xiao Tang sent Liang Shijie back to his house, he thanked the guests one by one. He had just walked around and was responsible for replacing Liang Shijie.

Shi Yong, Hou Jian, Zhang Qing, Zheng Tianshou and others who were holding back the wine in Xiaotang were already top-heavy and extremely drunk.

Xiao Tang was persuaded by all the guests, so he had to drink a few more drinks himself. But today was his big day, how could he really be drunk? After a while, Xiao Tang pretended to be drunk and was helped into the backyard. It was a good thing.

The guests immediately wanted to make a noise and go to the bridal chamber,

Shi Xiu, Yang Lin, Xue Yong, Xiao Yi and others, who still had room for drinking, were already prepared. They each held wine bowls and blocked the door of the backyard, so Shi Xiu smiled and said: "You guys seem to have not finished enjoying yourself?

It's just that a moment of sex is worth a thousand pieces of gold. If they want to have a wedding, Brother Xiao and his sister-in-law are not willing to accept it! Tonight, everyone wants to have a drink and will not return until they are drunk, so we brothers will have a good time with you! "

The other guests just accepted it after cheering, so how could they really go to Xiao Tang's bridal chamber to drink heavily? But Luda just got into the mood after drinking, although he was not reckless enough to rush into the bridal chamber and pull Xiao Tang out to drink again, it was audible

Shi Xiu said this and immediately shouted: "Hello! I'm worried that I don't have a rival to challenge Sajia! Come on, let's drink three jars with Sajia again!"

Next to him, Wu Song also stood up and said: "Brother Lu, there are many of them, I will accompany you to fight with them!"

Xue Yong, Xiao Yi and Wu Song were old acquaintances, and they knew very well Wu Erlang's drinking capacity, so he hurriedly said: "Brother Wu, my young master is your brother-in-law. It's fine if you don't block the wedding for the young master. Why are you in trouble?"

us?"

Wu Song laughed loudly and scolded: "You guys are ignorant! The Su family's sister worshiped Taigong Pan as her adoptive father. My eldest brother is the steward of Pan's house, so naturally I am from my mother's side. That boy Xiao Tang kidnapped Su

Sister, I don’t want to argue with him, but you bump into me and pick on me! Even if you drink less, see if I will obey you!?"

When Han Shizhong, Suo, Zhou Jin and others saw Lu Da and Wu Song wanting to have a lively drinking contest, they all started shouting, causing the guests who had just calmed down to cheer and stand up.

The people fought hard, as if they were trying to spread the idle anger generated by Shi Xiu and others because they did not allow them to have a wedding ceremony back to them.

Shi Xiu, who had always been shrewd, was dumbfounded and murmured with a wry smile: "Brother, this time the brothers are really loyal..."

Yang Lin also gritted his teeth and sighed: "As the saying goes: It is better to suffer in body and bones than to be embarrassed. How can we not respond now that we have drawn a path? We will risk our lives to accompany the heroes, just drink!"

........

The faces of Shi Xiu, Yang Lin and others here were both tragic and determined. They all looked like heroic martyrs who were about to be dragged to the execution ground. Over there, Xiao Tang had turned into the backyard and walked to the door of the new house.

Taking a deep breath, he gently opened the door.
