Quick travel: I am bound by the longevity system
Chapter 251 Leading the tribe to survive in troubled times 14
The two families set the wedding date for seven days. When Qi Mingjing learned that she and Lin Jiu were getting married, she was so excited that she practiced shooting in the yard all night.
Fearing that things might change, Qi Xiuwen sent several waves of people to create trouble for people coming to Zhending Mansion from the capital.
Qi Xiuwen also knew who came to Zhending Mansion this time, Prime Minister Lin's son-in-law Zhao Qian. This person is even more cruel and cruel than Lin Xianglai.
At the same time, Qi Xiuwu suddenly fell ill while training new soldiers. The doctors who searched the Zhending Mansion were at a loss what to do. Some people suggested that he should rush into a happy event. Qi Xiuwen's most precious younger brother, even the eldest son, had to take a step back. Considering that the younger brother had no children, Qi Xiuwen adopted his younger son Qi Mingjing to his younger brother, and asked Qi Mingjing to marry his younger brother.
Although it is said to be a happy occasion, there is no lack of etiquette.
On the day of the betrothal, Qi Mingjing went to catch a pair of live geese in person. In addition to the things prepared by the house, Qi Mingjing also put the treasures in her private treasury into the betrothal gift list.
As for Lin Jiu's dowry, in addition to the ones that Lin's mother had praised since she was born, there was also the reward given to her by Qi Xiuwu for catching Ye Luxiong. When Yan Di Qizhou got it back, many shops and houses were empty. Lin Jiu did not ask Qi Xiuwu for gold or silver, but asked for several shops, two of which were owned by the clan, and the remaining four were recorded in Lin's mother's name.
Now Lin's mother left two of them to Lin Jiu as her dowry. The Lin family didn't keep the betrothal gifts sent by the Qi family, and they were all used as Lin Jiu's dowry.
On the wedding day, Lin Jiu sat in front of the dressing table early, waiting for Quan Fu to come and comb her hair.
At this time, Mother Lin came in carrying a small bowl with three dumplings lying in it.
It is a custom in the Zhou Dynasty that the bride eats three dumplings before dressing up, which symbolizes a happy and fruitful life after marriage.
Although Lin Jiu didn't know how this dumpling was related to having many children and many blessings, since he was living in his hometown, he just followed the customs.
After eating dumplings, Lin Jiu's aunt Yang also came over to comb Lin Jiu's hair.
"Once you comb your hair, you don't have to worry about wealth."
"If you comb your hair with two combs, you will be free from disease and worry."
"If you comb your hair three times, you will have more children and a longer life."
"Brush your comb to the end again, and your eyebrows will be straight again when you lift the case."
"Two combs are combed to the end, and we fly together."
"Comb three combs to the end, and we will be united forever!"
Running a wooden comb through his hair and listening to his uncle's singing, Lin Jiu was shocked to realize that she was really getting married.
Yang pulled Lin Jiu's hair into a bridal bun and fixed it with a gold hairpin. After putting on her makeup and wedding clothes, she handed Lin Jiu a wedding fan that hung on the branch.
Lin Jiu covered her face with a fan in both hands, waiting for the groom to come and pick her up.
At that moment, there was the sound of blowing and beating outside the door. This was the arrival of the wedding team.
Qi Mingjing rode into the village on a tall horse, with a large sedan chair behind him.
When the sedan chair came to the door, the Lin family stopped them symbolically and started the banquet. After the banquet, the groom began to urge the bride to put on her makeup and go out.
But no matter how noisy outside, there was no movement from the room door.
"The groom reads a poem to encourage makeup. If he doesn't compose a poem to encourage makeup, how can the bride put on makeup and open the door?"
"Smiling flowers are not free, urging people to go away from the sorrow on their eyebrows. The light smoke and light rain are approaching the end of spring, competing for the east wind to climb up the small building."
As soon as Qi Mingjing finished reading her poem, Lin Jiu's door opened.
Lin Yu then carried Lin Jiu out.
"Sister, if he dares to bully you, just tell Brother Six and Brother Six will make the decision for you."
"Ah."
Lin Jiu nodded lightly.
Lin Yu put Lin Jiu on the sedan chair, and Qi Mingjing also rode on a horse and walked in front of the sedan chair. After the sedan chair had walked a certain distance, the brothers of the Lin family followed behind the sedan chair on horseback.
Knocking all the way, the sedan entered the city and circled around the city before kicking it off in front of the Qi Mansion.
At this time, Xiniang brought a piece of red silk and put one end in Qi Mingjing's hand and the other in Lin Jiu's hand.
Lin Jiu followed Qi Mingjing into the gate of Qi Mansion with Xiniang's support.
There was still some distance from the gate to the main hall. Lin Jiu stepped on the red carpet carefully, for fear of making a mistake and causing laughter.
At this time, Lin Jiu really misses the modern times. In modern times, just getting a marriage certificate is enough. There is no such ceremony. Although it is very formal and ceremonial, it is really a torment for people, especially the bride.
She had only eaten three dumplings from morning to now, and she was already singing about the empty city plan.
When we arrived at the main hall, sitting on the high hall were Qi Xiuwu and Qi Xiuwen.
At the beginning of the worship ceremony, the girl took a red futon and placed it in front of Qi Mingjing. On the wedding day of Zhou Dynasty, men and women were required to kneel when worshiping.
"The auspicious time has arrived, and the worship ceremony has begun..." the master of ceremonies shouted, and Qi Mingjing knelt on the futon.
"Worship the heaven and the earth!"
Lin Jiu and Qi Mingjing faced outside the gate. The master of ceremonies said a sentence, Lin Jiu bent down slightly, and Qi Mingjing kowtowed with her head.
"Bow down: Respect the heaven, your match is made in heaven!"
"Two bows: respect the loess and get married."
"Three bows: Respect the heaven and the earth, may the earth last forever."
"Two thanks to Gaotang!"
The two turned around and faced Qi Xiuwu and Qi Xiuwen sitting in the high hall.
"One bow: Respect your parents, flesh and blood, love like the East Sea."
"Second bow: Thank you parents for raising me. Your kindness is as heavy as a mountain."
"Three bows: I wish my parents a happy family and a long life."
"Couple greetings!"
The two were facing each other, one standing and the other kneeling.
A bow: wholeheartedly, deeply devoted, and growing old together. "
"Two bows: mutual consent, the best of both worlds, and eternal love."
"Three bows: three lives of good fortune, three stars shining brightly, and eternal unity."
"The ceremony is completed and sent to the bridal chamber."
Following the ceremony from the master of ceremonies, Qi Mingjing hugged Lin Jiu directly, and Lin Jiu almost breathed out in shock.
"Don't be afraid." Qi Mingjing said these two words in Lin Jiu's ear.
Qi Mingjing hugged Lin Jiu and walked out of the main hall. There were corridors on the left and right outside the main hall.
Qi Mingjing turned right, walked through a corridor and then entered a vase-like flower door. From here, there was a small garden. However, in the garden, except for a few pots of flowers placed around the Langfang, the middle position was covered with flowers. It was transformed into a martial arts training ground. Probably because of the celebrations these days, even the weapon shelves were painted with red paint.
After passing through the garden transformed into a martial arts training ground, and then passing through a hanging arch, we arrived at Qi Mingjing's yard.
When the maid in the courtyard saw Qi Mingjing coming with the bride in her arms, she didn't say anything, but carefully lifted the red curtain.
After entering the bedroom, Qi Mingjing carried Lin Jiu to the Nuan Pavilion inside, and sat down next to her.
The two of them sat quietly like this, neither of them speaking, until Xi Niang arrived.
"Groom, why are you still standing there? Hurry up and recite the fan poem!" Xi Niang joked.
"Whose beautiful girl is better than Wu Ji? The sun is getting late in the singing and dancing. The catkins are floating in the spring, and the peach blossoms are falling when the swallows return. The clothes are cut with gold threads and double dragon belts, and the fans cover the blue luan and the phoenix. Don't sing a song of Li Ge, When the feaster is in the moon, he knows clearly."
