Mr. Transcendence

After Yuan Xiaoyu got married, the wedding date of Yuan Anping and Huo Xiaohan was approaching.According to Yuan Gensheng, the filial piety period has passed and Yuan Anping has experienced such dangers, the marriage is just a joy.So I quickly found someone to combine the characters and chose an auspicious day, and it was also the best day of the year.The day happened to be right after Yuan Xiaoyu got married, which saved a lot of trouble, after all, it is not easy for a cousin to get married before the cousin, so it would be a pity to change the date.

Yuan Anping didn't have any parents, so Yuan Gensheng and his wife would naturally help with such important matters as getting married.

Early in the morning, Yuan Gensheng went to Yuan Anping's place with a few men who hadn't finished their fifth clothes: "Anping, is the dowry ready?" Tomorrow is the day to get married, and today the dowry needs to be carried to him go home.Because Huo Xiaohan and Huo's family broke up, so after discussing, Huo Xiaohan was asked to marry from his family, and they got married tomorrow. According to the rules, today they have to show their dowry in the yard.So Yuan Gensheng brought people over early to carry it.

"It's ready, it's all in the west wing." Yuan Anping led Yuan Gensheng to the room where the dowry was placed, and when the door opened, everyone was surprised to see the situation inside the room.Yuan Gensheng couldn't help being surprised and said: "So many?!" A room full of boxes, he didn't expect Yuan Anping to prepare so much dowry for Huo Xiaohan.

"A total of 36 liters." Yuan Anping actually wanted to buy more. He originally planned to buy 160 liters. He wanted to make Huo Xiaohan marry in a splendid manner and make everyone envy him.From Yuan Anping's point of view, if you don't talk about ten miles of red makeup, at least you have to make up the word "many".It’s just that Huo Xiaohan disagreed in various ways, and felt that this was too eye-catching. As the saying goes, wealth is not revealed. They live in the village. He doesn’t know if they don’t worry about poverty but inequality, but he understands this truth, which makes people jealous It's not a good thing to make people jealous.In the end, under Yuan Anping's various negotiations, the quantity was set at 36 liters.Even this number, Huo Xiaohan still felt a little too much.

Speaking of it, buying dowry is actually very cumbersome, ranging from gold, silver and jewelry to needles and threads, all of which are needed in daily life.Generally, people start saving early, but Yuan Anping didn’t notice this before, and now it’s a little tight, so what he prepares for Huo Xiaohan are mostly cloth clothes and jewelry, as well as some land deeds and shops. He paid 600 taels of silver, of course he didn't tell Huo Xiaohan about this amount, lest the other party be surprised.

Yuan Anping made room for them to go in and carry the dowry box. He said to Yuan Gensheng: "Uncle, are you ready for tomorrow?" He was not familiar with it, so he asked Yuan Gensheng and his wife to handle everything, and asked about it casually.

"Don't worry, everything has been arranged. The banquets are made by well-known masters from ten miles and eight villages. They will come over to set up a stove in the afternoon." In addition, Yuan Anping gave a lot of money, and the menu on the wedding banquet was long and useless. I was worried that the villagers would think that the banquet was not good.

"Come to build a stove in the afternoon? Then I'll wait for them at home." Because he was going to get married, he gave the college students three days off.What made him speechless was that according to the rules, the two parties could not meet each other three days before they got married, so Huo Xiaohan lived in Yuan Gensheng's house two days ago, and he could only wait for his uncle's house to deliver them the meal.Of course, Yuan Anping tried to cook the first meal by himself, but unfortunately, the three of them who had already been spoiled by Huo Xiaohan felt that it was not delicious, and they all felt that it was a waste of food for Yuan Anping to cook.

Yuan Gensheng led people to carry the dowry box all the way back to his home, and some villagers on the way were surprised to see it.

"Hey, I didn't expect Anping to prepare so much dowry for Xiaohan."

"I counted, there must be at least 20 boxes. Anping is really willing."

"It's more than that. I counted at least 36 boxes. It seems that I have prepared [-] bags. Even if they are all needles and thread, they must be worth a lot of money. Anping is really rich."

"I don't know what they are. After dinner, let's go to Gen Sheng's house to see what kind of dowry Anping has prepared for Xiao Han."

..............................

The dowry was brought into Yuan Gensheng's house, and Huo Xiaohan was helping to cook breakfast, although Zhou Xiangzhi always said that she and her daughter-in-law Yang were there, so there was no need for Huo Xiaohan to cook with her.But Huo Xiaohan felt that it was awkward to wait at someone else's house to eat or not to work, so he has been helping with cooking for the past two days.As he was serving the dishes, he heard the movement outside and knew that the dowry was being carried.

Zhou Xiangzhi put down the washed dishes and said to Huo Xiaohan and the others: "Come on, let's go out and have a look." The meal is almost ready, and the bottom of the stove is firewood, so it doesn't matter if you leave for a while.

When Zhou Xiangzhi saw the wooden box brought in, she hurried forward to help and told them where to put it.A single door cleared a place in the yard, and she pointed to them to put the wooden box there.

Looking at the crowded yard, Zhou Xiangzhi exclaimed in her heart: "I didn't expect Anping to prepare so much dowry!" When her daughter went out, the husband and wife prepared ten dowry, which was thanks to Yuan Anping's help. Xue Zhoujin's betrothal gift is not bad for a family like them, so Yuan Anping's 36 lift looks even more imposing.

Yang Wan looked at so many dowries in the yard and felt very envious. Who doesn't want to be able to have a good time when they get married, have face and be looked at by others, and what's even more rare is that the dowry was bought by the man.She glanced at Huo Xiaohan beside her, and felt that he should be able to have today.She also saw how difficult the period of Yuan Anping's accident was. Fortunately, Yuan Anping was fine, and it was a blessing in disguise.

Huo Xiaohan looked at so many dowries, feeling a little conflicted, both happy and troubled.Yu Yuan Anping was happy for being kind to him, but he was worried that the dowry was too much, and he didn't know how long the villagers would discuss it.And when he remembered that he was going to get married tomorrow, he couldn't help but get nervous.

Although he has been with Yuan Anping for a long time and is very familiar with that family, but facing the marriage, he still can't help being nervous. There is no one to talk about, so he can only hold it in his heart.

After breakfast, Zhou Xiangzhi asked Huo Xiaohan to go back to his room to stay, because today is the day to put on the dowry, and many people in the village will come to join in the fun, it will definitely be very noisy, Huo Xiaohan is thin-skinned, it is best to hide in the house for a while, Don't deal with talkative people.

In the middle of the morning, people began to go to Yuan Gensheng's house one after another. Anyone with a child who got married and posted the dowry would come to join in the fun and popularity.This is the time to reflect how well the family gets along with others in the village.For things like weddings and funerals, if very few people go there, it will be embarrassing for the host family.

Although Yuan Anping doesn't have much contact with the villagers, because he teaches the children in the village to read and is now the only person in the village with a reputation, his status is not the same. Come join us.

When everyone arrived at Yuan Gensheng's house, they saw so many dowries. They could see the contents inside the opened wooden box, but they couldn't see the precious jewelry, but the clothes and cloth they saw were good things.Everyone was amazed at Yuan Anping's generosity. Before, some people said it was true, saying that there seemed to be a lot of boxes, and there might be some worthless things in them. Now that they saw the things in the boxes, they really hit a lot of people. Face.

When she got home, Dongfeng Niang couldn't help but sigh with her son: "I went to see, Anping prepared a dowry for Xiaohan with 36 liters! They pretend to be good things, let alone those girls who are not yet married. Even the little daughters-in-law are jealous when they see it."

Li Dongfeng was sorting out the articles he had collected and planned to make a volume. Hearing what his mother said, he didn't find it surprising: "Sir saved King Rui and was rewarded with a lot of things. It's no surprise that he can buy so much dowry. "

"Anping's luck is truly incomparable. He was appreciated by Master Zhang and saved King Rui. What is the identity of King Rui? He is the son of a dragon." Although he almost lost his life, he survived the catastrophe. That must be a great blessing, "Xiaohan has also changed his luck, Anping treats him so well, after he marries Anping, he will have endless blessings."

Li Dongfeng felt that it was not accidental that Huo Xiaohan was able to have today's happiness, Yuan Anping was able to come back safely and he contributed a lot to him, he was just a little worried about the gift he was going to give tomorrow.The few of them have agreed that they must express their congratulations on such a major event as Yuan Anping's marriage.

The eighth day of August, a day of great auspiciousness.

When the sound of joy sounded, the whole village became lively.The children happily flocked to the door of Yuan Anping's house, waiting for the wedding candy.

Yuan Anping put on a bright red wedding dress and stepped on the horse, ready to pick up his new husband. Although he didn't know how to ride a horse, it was no problem with such a small distance.

When the children saw Yuan Anping going out, they saw the beautiful sedan chair behind them, and happily followed them. The pillars were helping to spread some wedding candy and nuts to make everyone feel happy.

Zhong Sunrui, who was also following, saw Yuan Lin and the others, ran over, and asked with a smile: "You guys are here, come in with me, or do you want to follow Brother Xiaohan?"

Li Zi held the small box in his hand: "Let's go home with you first, we'll put the presents in the house first, and then don't forget to remind Brother Anping." They felt a little embarrassed to give presents in person, and they planned to put them in advance. The gift was delivered to Yuan Anping's family, anyway, they will be so busy today that they don't have time to see what gifts others gave.

Sitting on the horse, Yuan Anping reached out and pulled the hem of his clothes. Today is his wedding day.After today, he will have a family, and he is looking forward to it.

Huo Xiaohan, who was woken up early in the morning and asked his good mother-in-law to help comb his hair, sat quietly on the bed and waited. He knew nothing about what would happen on the wedding night, and he was both looking forward to and nervous.Until seeing Yuan Xiaoyu, who came to congratulate with Xue Zhoujin, entered the room, and couldn't help but confide in him.

"Sister Xiaoyu, you're here." He had a lot of things in his heart that he needed to talk to someone, so he pulled him to the bedside and talked about his nervousness.

Yuan Xiaoyu, who is already married, seems to be doing well. After hearing Huo Xiaohan's words, she smiled and comforted him and said: "Don't be nervous, you have been with Anping for more than two years, and there is nothing you are not used to."

"I know that too, but I still can't help but be nervous. That..." Huo Xiaohan blushed and asked, "Sister Xiaoyu, what is the bridal chamber like? What should I do?" No elder told him these things, It made him feel very uncertain.

Yuan Xiaoyu was also very embarrassed when he asked him this question. She and Huo Xiaohan were of the same generation, so she was naturally ashamed to mention this kind of thing, so she could only respond casually: "This kind of thing... don't worry about it. Anping knows " She felt ashamed as she said that, she only learned about this kind of thing from her mother the night before she got married.

Huo Xiaohan knew from her expression that it was hard to say such an intimate matter, but once he heard Yuan Anping knew about it, he stopped asking.The two chatted in the room until they heard the sound of joy and knew that Yuan Anping had come to pick up the kiss.

Being led out by the matchmaker, Huo Xiaohan was very nervous, felt his hand being held by Yuan Anping, and heard him whispering to himself: "Be careful, you are about to get on the bridal sedan chair."

Hearing Yuan Anping's voice, Huo Xiaohan suddenly became less nervous, and carefully sat in the sedan chair. After today, he will become Yuan Anping's husband and spend his whole life with Yuan Anping.

After paying homage, Yuan Anping was busy greeting the guests.Almost all the people in the village came to congratulate. Fortunately, the yard is big enough, and there is also a table in the house, so there is no need to put the table outside the yard.

Compared with others, the Huo family is a little embarrassed.Although they were originally Huo Xiaohan's family members, they were divorced after all.After the family discussed, because Yuan Anping gave a gift money when Huo Xiasheng got married, they naturally wanted to return the gift. Huo Xiasheng's daughter-in-law, Mrs. Zhang, saw that it was almost time to start the banquet, so she said, "It's time for us to go too, miss it Thanks for the time to open the banquet. Anyway, we have a lot of family members, so we can take a gift money and eat there, so we won’t suffer.”

Huo Xiangxiang got up with a displeased face: "I'm not going." She watched the wedding reception from a distance today, and the long dowry line made her feel very depressed, thinking that when she married Li Mo in a few days, she would definitely be compared , I feel angry in my heart.

Mrs. Zhang knew why Huo Xiangxiang didn't want to go. Seeing that this sister-in-law had always displeased her, didn't she just think she was more beautiful, so she deliberately said, "Why don't you go? See if he can buy so many dowry for Huo Xiaohan. The banquet will definitely not be bad, if you don’t eat for nothing, you won’t eat for nothing.”

Huo Xiangxiang heard that she was sarcastic to herself on purpose, and felt unhappy: "Isn't it just a bite, my eyelids are not so shallow." After finishing speaking, he left.

Mrs. Zhang snorted coldly, and looked at Huo Xiasheng: "Let's go, I'm just short-sighted, and I definitely want to eat this meal after paying for it."

Huo Xiasheng followed obediently.

The Yuan family is different from the rest of the Huo family. Since the birth of her son, Huo Dayu has treated her much better. Although she was separated because of the Zhang family, Huo Dayu has a fighting spirit after having a son. Although life is not considered rich, the family can at least have enough to eat, and Yuanshi is already very satisfied.Holding her son and daughter, Yuan Shi congratulated Yuan Anping, she wanted to see Huo Xiaohan.

Although Yuan Anping didn't like to see Huo's family, he wouldn't specifically keep Huo Xiaohan away from Yuan's and the others, he could do whatever he wanted with Huo Xiaohan himself.What's more, today is a day of great joy, and what happened before is nothing to him.Yuan Anping thanked Yuan Shi, and asked someone to take her to see Huo Xiaohan, and then went to greet other guests.

"Sir, congratulations." Zheng Qiuwen also came here early and offered a generous gift. It was thanks to Yuan Anping that he was able to successfully pass the examination of scholar, and he was very grateful.Being a teacher for one day is a teacher for life, not to mention that if he wants to go further, he will naturally continue to learn from Yuan Anping.

Yuan Anping was very happy: "Thank you, drink a few more glasses today, it doesn't matter if you get drunk, there is a guest room."

Zheng Qiuwen smiled and said, "It must be, today is your big day, be careful not to get drunk."

Yuan Anping said with a smile: "Then you have to drink less for me." As for helping to block the wine, there are Zhuzi and the others to help, "You can sit down as you please, and I will entertain other guests."

"Okay, sir, go get busy."

Yuan Anping greeted several tables of guests, especially the village head and his table. Just as everyone was happily talking and laughing and congratulating Yuan Anping in various ways, someone suddenly ran over and whispered something to Yuan Anping.

Yuan Anping's heart skipped a beat after hearing this.Then I saw a few people in official uniforms coming in, the leader walked up to Yuan Anping and cupped his hands, "I am the bodyguard next to Princess Rui. The princess specially sent me to send a congratulatory gift when she learned that Prince Yuan is married."

The people present gasped when they heard that Princess Rui had also sent congratulatory gifts.Concubine, what a high-ranking person she is, she even specially gave Yuan Anping a congratulatory gift, and they all felt that Yuan Anping had too much face.Zheng Qiuwen looked envious, it would be a great thing to make friends with King Rui.Xue Zhoujin thought more about it. As a scholar, it is not a good thing to make friends with the vassal king.

Yuan Anping didn't feel any joy in his heart, the last thing he wanted to see was King Rui, because of the space problem, he wished he would never see King Rui and the people related to King Rui in his life.As if begging God to worship Buddha, he wanted to make King Rui and the others forget that he was such a character. In order not to expose the space, he has not used the space recently, because he was afraid of being put on the roof. Who knows whether King Rui sent someone to come Spy on his secrets.

Although he didn't want to see it in his heart, Yuan Anping didn't dare to reveal anything on his face. After listening to the guards' words, he hurriedly thanked them, and then greeted them: "If you don't mind it, I will also stay for a glass of wedding wine."

The guards were not in a hurry to rush back, and they didn't refuse when Yuan Anping spoke up: "Thank you."

Under Yuan Gensheng's reminder, Zhuzi hurriedly received Princess Rui's congratulatory gift with a few cousins, while Yuan Anping led a few guards to sit at the table alone, after all others would not feel comfortable sitting with them.

When Yuan Genshuo and Fang Hua saw the congratulatory gifts from Princess Rui, they fixed their eyes on them and wanted to open them to see what was inside.

Fang Hua was so envious: "Tell me, what's in those boxes?"

"I don't know, but it must be a good thing." Yuan Genshuo was jealous, and there were six boxes, "That's a congratulatory gift from the princess. Even if it's not priceless, it must not be cheap. Anping, this boy is really lucky! "

Yuan Anping continued to greet the guests, but he was a little restless.Sitting at the banquet, Zhongsun Lianjue found that Yuan Anping was in a bad mood, but it was not easy to ask at the banquet, guessing that it might have something to do with the guards.Touching him with an elbow, Yuan Anping hurriedly withdrew his mind, thinking that today was his big day, King Rui and others would be put aside first, and the soldiers would come to cover the water and soil, not to mention that he was just sending congratulatory gifts now, so he didn't have to think about it. so many.

Zhu Zi and the others carried the congratulatory gift from Princess Rui into the dowry room, Zhu Zi carefully locked the door, and there were all valuable things inside, if someone got greedy and wanted to take advantage of the chaos, it would be broken .

After locking the door, Zhu Zhu whispered to the children sitting on the seats in front of the dowry room: "Pay attention to this room, and don't let anyone enter it."

Li Zi and his group of children sat at a table, right by the door of the dowry room. Hearing what Zhu Zi said, they said that they would definitely like it.After the pillar left, they all started discussing.

Fat pier ate so much that his mouth was full of greasiness. In his eyes, neither King Rui nor Princess was as attractive as meat. He just looked at the room behind him curiously: "Aren't there many treasures?"

"It must be." Li Zi was very curious: "I didn't expect that Princess Rui would send a congratulatory gift. Brother Anping will save face now. I don't know what's in the box, so I really want to take a look." He said It's not that I envy those things too much, but I just want to see what people like princes and concubines will give away, so I can learn a lot.

Li Dongfeng glanced at him: "Take a rest, you want to see everything, why are you so curious!"

Li Zi expressed that he was not as knowledgeable as him, looked at Zhong Sunrui, and whispered to him: "If you have a chance to see it, you must tell me."

Zhong Sunrui agreed: "Okay. If I see it, I will tell you. If you don't see it, don't blame me."

After receiving Princess Rui's congratulatory gift, Zhang Linyi's congratulatory gift also arrived, but Yuan Anping felt a little regretful that Zhang Linyi couldn't come because of something, after all, the other party was a friend he recognized.

The banquet lasted from noon to night, Yuan Anping finally got out and was surrounded into the room.Yuan Anping, who was originally drunk, suddenly turned around and blocked all the people who wanted to come in to make a bridal chamber, then turned around and smiled at Huo Xiaohan, who was dressed in a bright red wedding dress: "Those boys kept pouring me wine, luckily I pretended to be drunk Otherwise, they would really have to be carried in."

Huo Xiaohan got up and asked concerned: "Are you okay?"

Yuan Anping glanced at the food on the table, as if it hadn't been touched: "It's all right. Have you eaten yet?"

"Eat, my aunt gave me something to eat." According to the rules, the food on the table cannot be moved, and should be eaten with Yuan Anping, and the dumplings are still raw.

Yuan Anping stretched out his hand to hold Huo Xiaohan's hand, and Huo Xiaohan sat down shyly.

Yuan Anping poured two glasses of wine and handed one to Huo Xiaohan: "Come on, let's have a cup of wine."

Huo Xiaohan picked up the wine glass, he had never drunk before, but he knew the meaning of handing over a glass of wine, looking at Yuan Anping opposite, after tonight, they will be husband and wife.

Yuan Anping took Huo Xiaohan's hand, drank a glass of wine, kissed him on the forehead, and looked deeply at the person in front of him: "From now on, we will be a married couple for life."

Huo Xiaohan nodded, his eyes were full of happiness: "Well, for a lifetime."
