Brother Beggar refuses to beg

The ritual sense of ancient weddings is more important than modern ones, which makes people realize that marriage needs to be cautious.

According to the guidance of the bridesmaid, the new people offer incense, kneel, kowtow, kowtow again, kowtow three times.

The real ceremony of three prostrations and nine prostrations begins after the offering of incense. After the worship of heaven and earth, it is the high hall. Both Yin Su's parents have passed away, and Xie Chen's mother became ill two years ago and passed away forever.

Now, Xie Guogong is the only person sitting in the high hall, his face is still gentle at this time, when Xie Chen and Yin Su knelt down and kowtowed three times, he finally felt a little relieved, at least his son got married.

"Husband and wife pay respects!" The bridesmaid waited for them to get up and sang praises again.

Xie Chen turned around and stood face to face with Yin Su. The hijab on Yin Su's head was a thin layer of silk, and his face could be vaguely seen.

This is different from the original style. Under normal circumstances, when two men get married, in order to avoid the embarrassment of the married party, the hijab is made of opaque fabric, just to prevent the guests from seeing the appearance.

Xie Guogong temporarily ordered someone to change the hijab, he was obviously wary of Xie Chen, and he wanted to see the two of them pay homage with his own eyes.

For some reason, since he returned to his hometown, his heart has always been very uneasy.Years of fighting gave him almost a beast-like intuition, but this time, he couldn't find the point that worried him, so he could only stare at the whole process.

Yin Su, who has a big nerve and is very thoughtful, is also a little upset this time.When a girl gets married and wears a hijab, it is a surprise to see the beautiful woman inside.When Xie Chen took off the hijab, he saw a strong man who was more manly than himself, what a shock!

Fortunately, I can't see my hot-eyed outfit, what should I do, I feel a little sorry for the guests who came to watch the ceremony today.

While complaining in his heart, his body knelt down and saluted honestly.Husband and wife bow down to each other, expressing that they will respect and love each other as guests in the future.

"Licheng!"

With the last line of praise from the best man, Xie Guogong finally felt a little relieved.

Duan Lingyue was pregnant with Liujia and was easily exhausted. Before the third worship, Luo Er, the big girl who was close to her, took her to the wing room to rest first, and her two sister-in-laws also went with her.

Jiang Yuefeng watched his wife leave the banquet, and did not turn to continue watching the ceremony until he could no longer see her back.

After the ceremony, a herald suddenly walked into Xie's mansion in palace attire, looked arrogantly around the crowd, unfolded a roll of brocade silk with black border and red background and said loudly: "Duke of Zhen Guo Xie Yuyi, son Xie Chen welcomes you!" Purpose!"

The person who came was the eunuch who served the emperor personally, the father and son of the Xie family recognized it, both of them thumped in their hearts, their expressions remained unchanged, they lifted their clothes and knelt down to listen to the order.

As the eunuch chanted the contents of the imperial decree in a slightly shrill voice, boxes of rewards were carried into Xie's mansion.

The emperor was clearly in Yecheng, but Xie Chen didn't show up for his wedding. His attitude towards Xie's family can be seen.What's more amazing is that Xie Guogong even sent invitations quietly, just to keep a low profile and not plan to publicize, but the emperor ostentatiously rewarded things and sent them to the Duke's mansion ostentatiously.

Now it's all right, Xie Guogong can't hide it even if he wants to, not only can't get angry, but also thank Dade, thank the Lord Long En.

Xie Shizi got married, and the emperor was not stingy, and prepared a big gift for him, pearl agate, gold, silver and jade, all top grade.Those who didn't know thought that there were many princes in the state that the emperor favored, and there were very few truly intelligent people who could see through the emperor's mind.

Those in charge of preaching the imperial decree have always had special officials to do it. Sending eunuchs like eunuchs here is a blatant slap in the face of Xie's family.

After the eunuch delivered the decree, he left with the 1000 taels of money from Xie's family.The wedding can continue, the couple is sent to the bridal chamber, and the guests begin to feast.

The two brothers Duan Lin and Duan Yu said with a smile that they were going to have a bridal chamber. As soon as the couple left, they followed.

After the newlyweds are sent to the bridal chamber, the bride needs to wait in the bridal chamber, while the groom has to change his clothes and go to the banquet to toast the guests.

Before Xie Chen took off his clothes, Duan Lin and Duan Yu came with a small jar of wine.After a while, Miss Duan San also arrived with her maid.

The maid who was guarding outside the new house brought a servant to prevent the three of them from entering, and said: "The master ordered, everything about the marriage should be kept simple, and the Duan family members are all brothers of our own family, so don't make trouble in this bridal chamber, it's not proper to be noisy. "

"Oh, I thought I could take this opportunity to play crossword puzzles with my cousin and make him look bad in front of the bride! I bet that I've carefully prepared the crossword puzzles for several days, and he definitely won't be able to solve them!" Duan Yuyi A pity look, full of disappointment.

Duan Lin laughed and said, "Are you sure it's not you who will lose face? Why don't I really believe it?"

"You two are married people, and you are not stable at all." Duan Lingyue walked over slowly, and after talking about her brother, she turned to the servant woman and said, "Nurse, I want to go in and see my sister-in-law, he is busy now." I haven’t eaten all day, and there is no elder at home to suggest something, I’m afraid I’m starving.”

The bride has no time to eat all day during her wedding. Usually, her mother or maid will hide some food on her body and secretly pad her belly.A single man like Yin Su who has no father, no mother, and is still poor and has no servants, how could he know all these twists and turns, and his hungry chest is probably stuck to his back.

The maid herself has experienced this too, and she feels pitiful when she thinks about it. Besides, Miss Duan San is a cousin, so it shouldn't be a problem to let her in.

After thinking about it, the servant girl let people in. She kept watching at the door, and there would be no major problems.

The new house is very big, divided into two rooms, inside and outside. Yin Su sat on the marriage bed in the inner room as a bride, sitting upright, covered with a hijab, so far away that he couldn't see his face clearly.

Xie Chen was changing clothes outside, and when he heard the conversation outside, there was no disturbance in his heart.

"Cousin, congratulations!" Duan Yu congratulated him as soon as he entered the door.

Xie Chen has already changed into another wedding dress, which is still black and red, but it is much simpler than the previous wedding dress, without the long tail of the cloak, and the wide sleeves are much smaller.

"You guys go down first." With only the last shirt left, Xie Chen let all the servants in the room go out first, and walked out from behind the screen, "You two brothers, do you want to come and get me drunk in advance now? ?”

"How come, cousin is still here." Duan Lin smiled, and squinted at the position in the inner room, "A few days ago at the wedding banquet between me and Duan Yu, it was not long before my cousin beat all the others. , how dare we pour you wine in front of him!"

"That's right, I don't want my two brothers to come in vertically and go out lying down." Duan Lingyue's crisp voice was teasing her two brothers.

There was laughter and laughter in the room, and the corners of the servants and servants guarding outside the room also raised their mouths.Mrs. Shizi's feat at the Duan family's wedding banquet has long been spread by the people of Yecheng. Who would dare to overestimate their capabilities and fight with him for wine.

The four of them laughed and quarreled inside for a while, Duan Lin's guard, Duan Fang, came and said that someone in the restaurant was drunk and making trouble, insisting on ordering dishes that were sold out, and had a stalemate with the shopkeeper.

"I really know how to pick the time!" When Duan Lin walked out of the room, his handsome face was full of boredom.

Duan Fang didn't dare to answer, and followed him to the outside of the mansion.

"Cousin, your hair is a little loose, and your complexion is not very good-looking, are you tired?" Duan Lingyue's voice came from the room, "Let Luoer re-tie your hair and put some powder on it, Luoer Her craftsmanship is so good, I can't do without her on weekdays."

"I'm a big man, so I don't need it..." Xie Chen's voice was full of helplessness.

As soon as the words were finished, Duan Lingyue began to scold, "Why can't men put on powder? Everyone likes this nowadays. It's just to improve their complexion. You are celebrating a wedding. It's so ugly to have a pale complexion."

Xie Chen couldn't laugh or cry, "Okay, okay, you are right."

The guards outside tried their best to hold back their laughter, and the maid also became curious, and when Xie Chen came out of the room, she took a closer look.

There is no difference from usual, except that his complexion does look a little ruddy and radiant.

Not many guests came today, Xie Chen was still sober after toasting one by one, it was useless for Duan Yu to follow beside him.

Back at the main table, Xie Chen, who hadn't eaten anything all day, could finally sit down and rest. He picked up the chopsticks and ate the food. Before he could swallow it, he heard Xie Guogong call him.

"Chen'er, don't you not like spicy food?" Xie Guogong watched his son take a mouthful of spicy food without changing his expression, feeling strange in his heart.

Xie Chen swallowed the food in his mouth, and turned to look at him: "Father, do you remember the last time we ate together? I like spicy food, but I can only eat less, so you rarely see it."

"I misremembered." Xie Guogong was asked such a question, he really couldn't remember when they had dinner together, so he laughed.

Both of them have business to do, and the Duke's Mansion has a big business. Apart from the big kitchen in the mansion, the master and the eldest son both have small kitchens in their courtyards, and they seldom eat together.

It's normal to not remember.

After the banquet, the guests gradually dispersed, and the two brothers and sisters of the Duan family came to bid farewell to their uncle and returned home first.

Xie Chen, who was supposed to leave the table first, was left by Xie Guogong to the end. After the outsiders had left, he said earnestly: "Chen'er, being a father didn't mean to make things difficult for Yin Su. If I lift him too high, the emperor may Believe it. Furthermore, how can you be sure that this person can be completely trusted and will not go too far?"

"...Father taught me a lesson." Xie Chen saluted Xie Guogong upright, as if he really knew that he was wrong.

When Yin Su was mentioned two days ago, whenever the father and son were not tit for tat, Xie Guogong always felt that something was wrong.

When Xie Chen finished speaking, when Xie Chen turned around, Xie Guogong suddenly bent his fingers into claws, grabbed his right shoulder with one hand, and tried to fold his arm with the other hand.

Xie Chen's reaction was extremely quick, and he broke free from Xie Guogong's grasp in the blink of an eye.

When he was attacked and subconsciously turned his head to look over, his black eyes suddenly changed, and ominous blood filled his eye sockets.

Yin Su: Women's clothing is only once and countless times! (No! Beggars are not women’s clothing! Only the hijab can touch the edges)

Xie Chen: What do you mean, I was forced to "make up".
