Rebirth of the Northern Giants

But Ye Zhikui had no choice but to come forward to pay respects, and hastily explained: "Mother-in-law, son-in-law was just joking, so it can't be taken seriously."

Mrs. Zhuang picked up a feather duster from the table, slapped Ye Zhikui twice on the head, and said bitterly, "Well, you Ye Zhikui, you dared to sneak into Sheng's mansion and do so many things we don't know about."

Ye Zhikui jumped away and shouted: "Mother-in-law, Mrs. Mother-in-law, calm down first, Huiyi, please persuade your mother, ouch, it hurts."

Sheng Huiyi, who was sitting next to him, heard the words, stood up and stopped him: "Mother, don't hit him."

Only then did Mrs. Zhuang stop, and she was a little tired. Sheng Huiyi walked up to Ye Zhikui, then stretched out her foot, stepped on Ye Zhikui's foot hard, and said: "Your body is not good, don't get angry, let my daughter Come to help you out."

Ye Zhikui burst into tears, who is this family, do you want to marry a tigress home?

Of course, the few people were half-truths and half-false, noisy and noisy, just to add some happiness and reduce some parting sorrows.

Not long after, Sheng Huiyi, supported by the wife Xi Niang, slowly walked out of the gate of Sheng's mansion, and climbed into the carriage quietly and obediently. She returned to the appearance of the gentle and calm young lady, only Ye Zhikui who had suffered a lot could do it. I know what kind of violence factor is hidden under her calm appearance.

Ye Zhikui still breathed a sigh of relief, and under the watchful eyes of the two elders of the Sheng Mansion, he happily set up the carriage, and the welcoming team started whistling again, and slowly headed towards the Tu Mansion.

"Master, we can't see anymore, let's go in." Mrs. Zhuang saw Sheng Xuanhuai standing still at the door, knowing that he loves this daughter more on weekdays, so she couldn't help persuading her.

"Hey! You bastard Ye Zhikui, if you don't treat our Huiyi well, I won't care what kind of Zhili admiral he is, just rush to the door and beat him up."

Sheng Xuanhuai felt distressed as if he had lost a sweetheart. If Ye Zhikui heard this, he would suddenly realize that the root of the violence was here, and it was all caused by genetics.

Fortunately, Ye Zhikui came to the Tu mansion to marry Xiao Linglong and there was no major accident. It's just that the butcher and Xiao Linglong had lived together for a long time, but now they were separated.

So the two families joined together, turned a corner, and marched towards Ye's mansion in a mighty way. Ye Zhikui looked at the two beautiful girls sitting motionless in the carriage behind him, and he was very happy in his heart.

It's just that when the welcoming team was not far from Ye's mansion, the whole morning was almost over, and a group of children followed behind the welcoming team, singing and laughing happily.

Ye's mansion heard the noise, and after a while, there was loud music and firecrackers. A group of Ye Zhikui's clan members came out of the mansion and came to greet him. Ye Zhikui was about to get off the car when the group of children were urged to stop in front of the carriage by the adults watching the excitement. , The wedding team is not allowed to pass.

Xi Niang was well-informed, and immediately smiled and took out a large amount of copper coins and candies from the wedding sending team and threw them into the air. The children rushed to snatch them first, and there was a lot of excitement. The children who grabbed the candies bit their mouths and dodged aside. Continue to squat in front of the car and refuse to get up, the child is innocent and innocent, so I don't care what Zhili admiral you are.

After this over and over again, four or five servant girls came forward to help throw it away, and it was only when no one blocked the way that Ye Zhikui was put down from the car.

But when he was about to help his two beauties out of the car, the bridal lady stepped forward and grabbed his hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the groom."

Ye Zhikui had no choice but to stop and looked at her in confusion, only to see Xi Niang pull out a four or five-year-old little girl from the mansion. With a sweet smile, he called his brother, and then looked at Ye Zhikui with a pair of innocent big watery eyes.

Xi Niang touched Ye Zhikui slightly, and said softly, "Gift, gift!"

Ye Zhikui just realized it, touched his body, and was embarrassed for a while. He didn't expect to prepare any gift at all. After touching for a while, he took out a pen from his underwear pocket. This was the pen used in the armistice agreement between China and Germany. , although Ye Zhikui was reluctant to part with it, but compared with the major events in life, he had to put it in the little girl's hands, pinched her small round face and said, "Come on, little sister, big brother gave it to you, take care of it."

The little girl smiled sweetly, revealing two dimples, and replied, "Thank you, big brother!" Then she bounced towards the brides.

However, Ye Zhikui did not expect that it was because of his temporary mistakes that directly led to the birth of China's first outstanding female diplomat in the future. She used the gold pen Ye Zhikui gave to China to abolish countless unequal treaties, and it became a good story for a while. , this is something to say.

But the little girl said that after receiving the gift, she went to Sheng Huiyi and Xiao Linglong respectively, pulled their sleeves three times with her hand, and said cutely and mischievously: "Sister is a bride, get out of the car quickly, big brother is waiting for you!" .”

Sheng Huiyi and Xiao Linglong had been told long ago that this little girl was a "little lady who got out of the sedan chair". After coming to welcome them out of the sedan chair, the two of them could slowly walk down with the support of their respective bridesmaids.

The surrounding area was already full of excitement, and the common people squeezed forward desperately to see the bride's appearance. Fortunately, the sergeants of the patrol battalion were also very strong, and they pushed back with their flesh and blood.

Only after the two brides got out of the carriage, they became quiet for a while, but seeing the brides covered their heads, there was another burst of noise, and they began to comment on Ye Zhikui, the two beautiful ladies. Slender, with a plump body, one said that the other was good, petite and exquisite, with a big butt and a good birth.

Ye Zhikui was speechless for a while, he couldn't see clearly, so he rushed forward to enter Ye Mansion together with the brides, and finally drove the noise out of his head.

The courtyard of Ye Mansion was already full of guests and voices, and here were some low-level officers in the army and relatives who had somehow climbed up.As soon as these people saw the groom and the brides coming in, they all got up and said some words of congratulations. Ye Zhikui clasped his fists all the way, smiled at each other, greeted each other repeatedly, and bluntly said that he was negligent.

From the place where the two brides get off the car to the wedding hall, felt is laid on the road to prevent the bride from accidentally falling or getting off the car, so as not to offend the God of the land.

Although Ye Zhikui's uncle Ye Zhichao didn't have time to come, quite a few elders from the old Hefei family came. Li Hongzhang led these people to stand at the gate of Xitang, waiting for Ye Zhikui and others to arrive.

As soon as the three of Ye Zhikui entered the door, they didn't rest for a while, and some appraisers shouted: "Let's go to the temple to see the ceremony, and play music!" And the two brides performed the ceremony of "kneeling three times, kowtowing nine times, and worshiping six liters". This set of etiquette is more complicated and cumbersome than the usual TV one worshiping the heaven and the earth, and the second worshiping the high hall. Fortunately, I have made it clear before. With someone pointing at the side, the three survived without any danger.

After the ceremony, the praiser shouted: "The bride is sent to the bridal chamber!"

Sheng Huiyi and Xiao Linglong left with the help of their bridesmaids and waited silently in the bridal chamber, but during this time they would go through the old woman's pre-marital sex education again, and of course, someone would deliver food so that the bride would not be hungry.

After watching Ye Zhikui's worship ceremony, all the guests arranged their seats according to their seniority.

When I saw Renren, I had already roughly determined the order according to the identity of the visitors. This time, everyone just made a little humility and sat down in roughly the same order.

There was another burst of music and cannons, and the bridesmaid announced the opening of the banquet.

Ye Zhikui had no choice but to stand in the middle, clasped his fists gratefully to the surroundings, and said with a smile: "All uncles and uncles, colleagues and friends, I am very grateful that you have time to attend Ye Zhikui's wedding banquet today. I hope you can have a good time here today." the crossing."

After Ye Zhikui finished speaking, the banquet officially began, and the kitchen began to serve the first course. Ye Zhikui stayed in the hall and heaved a long sigh of relief. After this set of procedures, Ye Zhikui only felt that he would lose two years of life. He has been in a daze, like a marionette, let the bride next to him operate, I believe Sheng Huiyi and Xiao Linglong who are also inexperienced are the same.

Seeing Ye Zhikui relieved, Li Hongzhang couldn't help but chuckled secretly, and said, "Congyun, the good show is yet to come, it's too early for you to relax now!"

Li Hongzhang, an old fox, said that he came to Tianjin for business, but in fact he was here for vacation. He entrusted the work of the Machinery Bureau to his subordinates, while he himself visited Tianjin all day long. There were even more of them, and life was so unrestrained for a while. When Ye Zhikui got married, he saw that there was no one who could hold the scene to host, so he took the initiative to take over. His appearance brought more officials to attend Ye Zhikui's wedding.

Ye Zhikui looked over at the chairman where Li Hongzhang was sitting, and saw that they were all uncles, including several respected elders in the clan, people in Li Hongzhang's staff who were close to Ye Zhichao, and Rong Lu, Dong Fuxiang and other high-ranking officials. Those who can sit at this table are all of age and prestige, and standing next to him is when I see you personally. I saw him with a happy face, witty words like pearls, frequently persuading him to drink, and using some exaggerated actions and words. Those old men were amused.

Ye Zhikui couldn't escape, so he had no choice but to go forward and see the wine one by one.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Thirty years after drinking, Ye Zhikui was still pulled above the chairman by Li Hongzhang, Rong Lu and others, drinking again and again. These big shots just came for a cutscene, and they probably would leave after a while, so Ye Zhikui had to do his duty as a junior , let the crowd 'bully', endure a moment of calm.

There were nine Boxers who came to Ye Zhikui's wedding, and they were arranged by Jianren Shiwu as a table. In the second seat of the new house next to the hall, there were also some middle and high-ranking generals of Ye Zhikui's Wu Yi army, such as Wang Shizhen and Wu Dashan. , Baobudeng and some Tianjin local gentry.

Although the generals of the Wu Yi Army have eyes higher than the sky and look down on the local turtles of the Boxer Regiment, they will not speak ill of each other, nor will they come here to make trouble.

Tianjin officials such as Yuan Shikai and Xu Shichang, and foreign friendly people such as Cook and Morrison were arranged in the new house on the other side, separated by a hall, so as to avoid conflicts as much as possible. It was well-intentioned, but what made him depressed was that even so, there were still people who didn't open their eyes to make trouble.

Lin Heier was the only female boxer leader who came today. Lin Heier's husband, Li You, was arrested and beaten for violating foreign religions, and then died of illness.She is the organizer of the red light photo, and she calls herself "The Madonna of Huanglian" and "Master Sister".

Now that she is in her forties, she still has a charming charm. In addition, she came to Ye Zhikui's wedding today and dressed up specially, so she looks a little shy and heroic.

Although the leaders of the Boxer Regiment didn't like to see other people, but fortunately, I treated them equally when it came to seeing each other. I sent two smart companions to accompany them, laughing and persuading them all the time, and they didn't feel left out.

It's just that compared with the tables of general Wu Yijun who came to toast from time to time, it was indeed much deserted.

"Come on! Chief Cao, have another drink." Seeing that Cao Futian's glass was empty, the person from Ye's house who accompanied the wine persuaded him to refill it.

Cao Futian smiled slightly, looked around, raised his glass and said, "Why don't you all have a drink together."

The other leaders of the Boxer Regiment applauded loudly, they didn't have so many rules, they just took a big bowl to drink, gorged on meat, talked and laughed loudly, all the while causing other people at the wine table to look sideways frequently.

"Who are those people?"

"Hush, be quiet, they are the leaders of a group of rioters."

"The old man sees that they have no demeanor, it is really insulting."
