The melon-eating system, everyone listens to my voice

Shen Zhao looked ahead with great effort and could vaguely see a man riding a tall horse.

He was dressed in red, had a handsome face, a straight back and outstanding temperament.

Shen Zhao sighed, "What a good-looking girl she is."

I just don’t know what the bride in the sedan looks like.

But judging from the maids following the sedan chair, the bride should be pretty good looking.

It was the first time Shen Zhao saw a wedding ceremony and he was curious about the bride and groom.

Hearing Guagua's voice, he quickly replied,

[Guagua, speak quickly, I love to listen]

Shen Zhao also specifically explained,

"Lingyun, An'an, this is my first time seeing a wedding ceremony.

Let's stop here and take a look, okay?"

The two of them loved gossip, so there was no reason for them to say anything bad at this moment.

In order to prevent Shen Zhao from suspecting anything, Qing An walked directly to a wooden stall selling carvings and said in surprise,

"The ones on this stall look quite wild and interesting. We can take a good look at them."

I have to say, this performance was a bit exaggerated.

A princess like her has seen a lot, so why would she be so excited about a small stall?

But Lingyun did not expose her, and the two of them looked at Shen Zhao with secret expectation.

Gua Gua: [Today is the day for the families of the third-rank official Lin Yuanxue and the fifth-rank official Cheng Feng to get together.

The groom is the eldest son Lin Guangcheng, and the bride is the eldest daughter Cheng Xue.

The old ladies of the two families were close friends in the boudoir. They had a very good relationship when they were young girls. Even the relationship between sisters in the family could not be as close as theirs.

In order to maintain a close relationship between the two families, the two old ladies agreed that their future children would get married and become in-laws.

But Mrs. Lin only had one child, Lin Yuanxue.

Old Madam Cheng has many children, three boys and one girl in total.

This youngest daughter was born in old age and is twenty years younger than Madam Cheng’s eldest child, Cheng Feng.

Therefore, Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Cheng did not fulfill their wishes in their children's generation.

So we set our sights on the third generation.

They agreed that if the third generation had a child of the right age, the two families would be reunited.

After Lin Yuanxue passed the imperial examination and became a Jinshi, he first trained himself for several years and served as a seventh-rank official for three years.

Later, he was sent to serve as an official abroad, and thanks to his own efforts, he achieved excellent political results every year.

Ten years later, he was transferred to the capital and became an official of the third rank.

But the three men of this generation who formed a family may not have enough talent or maturity.

The two failed to pass the imperial examination and became Jinshi, and ended up as Juren.

The Cheng family was not a family of aristocracy, but one of their ancestors was an official of the fourth or fifth rank in the capital.

Because Cheng's second and third sons had no talent for studying, he didn't pass the imperial examination until he was in his thirties.

They don't like being officials, and don't like struggling for years to become low-ranking officials.

The second son chose to run the family business, and the third son chose to travel and enjoy his freedom.

The eldest son, Chengfeng, is more talented than his two younger brothers.

He passed the imperial examination and also relied on his ancestors' connections to get a minor official position as a county magistrate.

But Cheng Feng prefers to plan in the capital.

He was only sent out for three years before he returned to Beijing to take up a post thanks to a huge favor.

Without any political achievements, after more than ten years of hard work, he could only rise to the fifth rank.

After more than ten years, the Lin family and the Cheng family reunited in the capital.

The two old ladies were also in good health, so they put the marriage of the third generation children on the agenda.

Lin Yuanxue has one son and one daughter, Lin Guangcheng and Lin Si.

Cheng Feng had three sons and two daughters, a legitimate daughter named Cheng Xue and a concubine's daughter named Cheng Yun.

Originally, it was supposed to be Lin Guangcheng and Cheng Xue who got married, and they looked a good match.

But Cheng Miao, the youngest daughter of the Cheng family and Madam Cheng, fell in love with Lin Guangcheng.

The person sitting in this sedan now is Cheng Miao, not the original bride Cheng Xue! 】
