Great Imperial Merchant

On May [-], everything is suitable.

After five beeps of the drum, Yang Zhongyuan suddenly opened his eyes when the night was getting brighter, but found that it was still dark outside the bed curtain.

It should be Mao Shi at this time, Yang Zhongyuan lay quietly on the bed, for a moment he couldn't remember why he woke up so early.

It wasn't until a slightly unfamiliar voice sounded that Yang Zhongyuan came back to his senses.

"My lord, it's time to wake up. The two old masters have already woken up, and the old master Quan is waiting here."

That was a servant I had just signed, named Changqing. He signed a ten-year contract with his husband-in-law. The two of them, one inside and the other outside, helped Yang Zhongyuan and Cheng Weizhe manage the house.

"Is it Evergreen? Prepare water."

Yang Zhongyuan turned over and got out of bed. He was about to habitually pick up the clothes placed beside the bed and put them on. He stretched out his hand, but found that the clothes were dazzlingly red.

Oh... Today is their day of great joy.

Yang Zhongyuan was in a daze, and sat by the bed for a while, until his father Zhou Quanxu came in with a water basin, but he still didn't recover.

"You child, don't hurry up and put on your auspicious clothes. Chenshi has to go out for a parade anyway." Zhou Quanxu put warm water on the rack, walked over to pick up the top white underwear, and started to help his son change his clothes.

This auspicious suit is very expensive, and the best fabric is used from the inside to the outside. The inner shirt is very elegant. Although it is pure white, it is embellished with light-colored auspicious cloud patterns on the neckline and sleeve edges. It looks very festive.

Yang Zhongyuan was still a little dazed, he stared blankly at his father, and asked him in a low voice: "Am I going to get married today?"

Hearing his low moan, Zhou Quanxu didn't know whether it was joy or sourness.He knew that although his son's personality was very different from when he was young, he was no longer so cheerful and direct.He has had a hard time in these years, and now he has finally made it through, but he has never had too many fantasies about the future.

Right now, holding hands with the bamboo horse who grew up with him for the rest of his life, such a happy thing, if it were him, he would feel like a dream.

"Yes, son, today is your big day. Be refreshed and wash your face so that we can wear auspicious clothes." Zhou Quanxu suppressed all the thoughts in his heart, and said to Yang Zhongyuan with a smile.

Yang Zhongyuan nodded. Yesterday he and Cheng Weizhe were happily planning the entire wedding process, but today he felt that everything was unrealistic. Everything since he left the palace seemed to be a castle in the sky, beautiful but illusory.

But he also knew in his heart that all of this was true, he and Cheng Weizhe left Danluo together, expressed their feelings to each other, and now bought their own house in Quzhou and have their own home.

Today, the two of them will ride horses through the streets, pay homage to the high hall, kneel down to their ancestors, entertain guests together, and then set up red candle tents to achieve a beautiful marriage.

Will the two of them be a good match?Yang Zhongyuan suddenly felt a little confused.

In a daze, he followed Zhou Quanxu to wash his mouth and clean his face, then put on the auspicious clothes one by one, and finally sat neatly in front of the bronze mirror, letting his father tie up his hair crown.

He is 25 now, at this age, he is already a late-married person in Daliang.He and Cheng Weizhe spent the first half of their lives working hard for others, involuntary and mediocre, and then they ran into each other on the bustling Danluo street, but they recognized each other at a glance.

There are so many people in the world, and the only thing they always remember in their hearts is each other.

Yang Zhongyuan looked at himself in the bronze mirror, with a handsome and clean face, a straight nose, and full lips. He vaguely remembered that when he was young, someone said that he was a person of poor fortune, and he didn't believe it at that time.

Later, after experiencing life and death several times, he suddenly realized what that person said back then.

But looking at his own face now, he can't find half of the brilliance of his childhood, what is left is firmness and sharpness.He didn't know how his father and Cheng Weizhe recognized him at a glance, even he couldn't recognize himself.

Thinking of this, Yang Zhongyuan couldn't help but chuckled and asked Zhou Quanxu: "Father, I haven't come back for more than ten years. I don't know why you recognized me at a glance?"

Zhou Quanxu was helping him comb his hair. Yang Zhongyuan's hair was very black, long and soft, so he should be a soft-hearted person.

"Silly boy, you are my son. When you are not at home, I think about you day and night. Sometimes I miss your naughty childhood, and sometimes I think about what you will be like when you grow up. After so many days and nights, of course Daddy glanced at you. Then I can recognize you." Zhou Quanxu said with a very gentle expression.

"Okay, what are you talking about? Today you are very happy, we should say some auspicious words to listen to, you sit down, dad will help you tie the crown."

Even though he is weak in his twenties, in the hearts of the older generation, a man can only be regarded as an indomitable man only when he has a family.

Therefore, the hair crown for Cheng Weizhe and Yang Zhongyuan's marriage was carefully selected by Zhou Quanxu and Han Shiqian.

The shape of the Lingyun crown used for the hair crown is matched with red yarn and pearls, which looks very festive and beautiful.Finally, there is a long-handled ebony hairpin, but it looks stable.

"Xiao Yuan, you got married today, father has nothing to say, he doesn't ask for a rich life, but only asks you and Wei Zhe to be safe and happy in the future, and you will be happy, remember?"

Yang Zhongyuan nodded firmly and did not speak.

After all the auspicious clothes were put on, Zhou Quanxu took another box from the stage: "This is what Weizhe told me before, so I must wear it for you."

Yang Zhongyuan looked at the box, his heart skipped a beat.

Cheng Weizhe told him when the two of them exchanged wedding ceremony before, that this was brought from the Lin family by his father in the early years, and it can be regarded as an ancestral item of the Lin family.Lin Shaofeng severed ties with his family back then, and it was secretly given to him by his grandfather, so that he could leave it to his own children and pass it down from generation to generation, even if it was just a thought.

Later, when Lin Shaofeng was dying, he left this jade ring to Cheng Weizhe.

Now, he entrusted Zhou Quanxu and delivered it to Yang Zhongyuan.

Yang Zhongyuan opened the box, and a grain-patterned jade ring lay quietly on the velvet cloth. This jade ring is white and moist, made of high-quality white jade, and the jade is engraved with grain patterns, which symbolizes the meaning of a good harvest.

This jade ring has continued to this day for 300 years.

Yang Zhongyuan gently touched the fine grain patterns on the jade ring, and the hesitation and confusion in his heart disappeared in an instant.

Cheng Weizhe gave Lin Shaofeng the only relic left behind, and his intentions are self-evident.

Yang Zhongyuan took a deep breath, raised his head, and firmly said to Zhou Quanxu: "Daddy, help me put it on."

Seeing the clarity in his son's eyes, Zhou Quanxu knew that he was still awake. He took out the jade ring with a smile and put it carefully around his neck.

In an instant, the pure white jade ring seemed to be shining against the bright red auspicious clothes, extremely dazzling.

Yang Zhongyuan stared fixedly at himself in the mirror, and slowly revealed a shallow smile. He stood up while supporting the table, and carefully smoothed out the folds on his clothes.

The auspicious clothes are cumbersome, with three layers inside and three layers outside, and they are exquisite and gorgeous everywhere. He wears them very heavy, but he doesn't feel tired.

This heavy weight is like a sudden responsibility. He and Cheng Weizhe are going to form a new family. Afterwards, the two will become a whole, sharing wealth and wealth, bearing wind and rain, and sharing joys and sorrows together until the end of their lives.

Suddenly, a bell rang in the distance, the morning bell and the evening drum. It was the Quzhou Bell Tower telling the people that a new day was about to begin.

Yang Zhongyuan took a deep breath, turned around and made a big gift to Zhou Quanxu: "Father, the child's success today is all due to his careful teaching. Now that the child is married, I will be filial to you with Ah Zhe in the future, so that you will always be safe, prosperous, and happy. "

Zhou Quanxu endured the tears already hidden in his eyes, smiled and nodded to him: "Good boy, get up quickly. The auspicious time has come, and Daddy is still waiting to see you riding a horse to welcome your relatives."

Yang Zhongyuan stepped forward and hugged Zhou Quanxu.

This thin middle-aged man supported him for most of the sky when he was young, but now he is the most important person in everything, and he is the closest person to him.

"Daddy, thank you." After Yang Zhongyuan finished speaking, he turned and left the guest room in the main house. When he passed by the new house, he paused, but he didn't stop, and went downstairs all the way.

Some stars were already waiting for him in the courtyard, Changqing was leading the horse, while Xu Xiaotian and Xia Ziyu were sitting next to Xia Junran, being fed snacks by him.

"Zhongyuan, congratulations, you're very energetic today. Look at your handsome face. When brother Cheng sees it later, you won't be able to walk anymore." Seeing him going downstairs, Xia Junran quickly stepped forward to make fun of him.

It was rare for Yang Zhongyuan not to refute this time, he greeted Xia Junran with a smile: "Brother Xia, I have troubled you and Brother Shang these few days."

Xia Junran smiled: "Zhongyuan is too annoying, we are very happy to do this kind of joyful thing. Well, get on the horse quickly, the welcoming team at the door has been waiting for a long time."

Yang Zhongyuan thanked him, and went straight to the edge of Dianxing. Because he hadn't learned how to ride a horse for long, Cheng Weizhe specially left him the docile Dianxing, so that he could ride across Quzhou Mansion smoothly.

These days, Dian Xing has been accompanying Yang Zhongyuan to learn how to ride a horse, so as soon as he approached, Dian Xing happily stomped his hooves and rubbed his head against his skirt.

Yang Zhongyuan walked along its slender neck with a smile, and said with a smile: "Dian Xing, come take a good walk with me today."

After all, Yang Zhongyuan got on his horse, and his red clothes were elegant and eye-catching, like red plums blooming in winter.

Zhou Quanxu and Xia Junran stood on the porch, watching him gallop out, they both smiled.

Yang Zhongyuan first let Dianxing walk out of the inner courtyard slowly, met the welcoming team at the door of the house, and then started to ride his horse towards the left side of the door.

The welcoming team behind him carried no more than no less than twelve sets of wedding ceremony, playing, playing and singing all the way, telling the people on the roadside of today's good marriage.

Because it was lucky to return to live in the new home, Cheng Weizhe borrowed the Xia family's house and came out from their house to welcome the relatives.

The two of them would ride around the city from opposite directions, and at last they would meet at nowhere.

From the moment he ran out of the house, Yang Zhongyuan felt the howling spring breeze blowing towards his face, and his heart beat faster and faster. The person he was about to run into had just met yesterday, but at this moment, he missed him very much.

A day without seeing each other is like three autumns. It turns out that's really the case.

As the festive music kept ringing behind his ears, Yang Zhongyuan controlled the speed of Dianxing, eager to meet Cheng Weizhe earlier, but on the other hand, he wanted to keep his pace so as not to throw away the wedding party.

The torment in that eagerness is really unforgettable.

Seeing how handsome the bridegroom officer who got married today was, the people on the side of the road stopped and said congratulatory words loudly.

Gradually, the houses on both sides passed by one by one, and Yang Zhongyuan's heart gradually stabilized. He smiled and thanked the people, telling himself in his heart that we will meet soon.

Bypassing the Huichun Hall, walking past the Xiting Evening Photo, turning around, I suddenly saw that young man in red and on a black horse, waiting for him quietly under the Futang.

Cheng Weizhe had a smile on his face, and he was dressed in red and auspicious clothes, giving off a heroic appearance, and the high hair crown on his head shone with pearls, which reflected his brows brightly.

Futang Dada's "Fu" is so eye-catching, but it can't take Yang Zhongyuan's eyes away.

Cheng Weizhe rode forward suddenly, and he walked to Yang Zhongyuan's side step by step, stretching out his slender hands: "Xiao Yuan, are you here to pick me up?"
