[Comprehensive] The Giant of the Red Chamber

No matter how important the state affairs are, Nangong Yan can't be bothered now. This person is either preparing the dowry gift or on the way to prepare the dowry gift, or sending gifts or letters to his daughter-in-law.In short, the people who serve at least have to go to the Lin Mansion to say hello every day, and sometimes they are assigned to bring new things to the Lin Mansion after returning from the front foot, or a new cake, or a hairpin, or just a sentence. As for the words and notes, whatever Nangong Yan thought of, he sent them all at once.

The concierge of the Lin family has changed from a surprise at the beginning to a habit. When the door slams, it goes without saying that in all likelihood, it is someone from the future son-in-law.Nangong Yan really wanted to come to the door every day, but due to etiquette, there were several uncles who obstructed him openly and secretly, whether they were pulling him to drink tea or playing chess. It would be good to see Daiyu once out of ten times.As a last resort, I can only send some things to relieve the pain of lovesickness.

Thanks to the frequent gift giving every day, Nangong Yan has also received a lot of gifts in return. The robe she is wearing, the purse hanging around her waist, and the boots on her feet are all made by Daiyu. The beautiful Nangong Yan is sleeping Can't wait to sleep in it.

The wedding date of the two has been set, and three months later, on the eighth day of the eighth lunar month, it is an auspicious day for marriage.This is a good day recently, otherwise Nangong Yan would have packed his luggage and moved into the Princess Mansion right away. He didn't feel ashamed to live in his wife's mansion at all, and he didn't even have the idea of ​​buying a private courtyard.

It seems that three months is quite long, but the ancient wedding process is cumbersome, plus it is the marriage of the eldest son and the marriage of the princess, which is even more complicated. I don't know how many procedures.There is no need to worry about the dowry. Since Daiyu was born, Lin Ruhai and Jiang Yingrong added a little bit every year, and now it is neat and tidy.

Although the Holy Majesty has already bestowed the marriage, because of Nangong Yan's serious attitude, he still intends to go through the entire marriage process according to Daqi's wedding customs, so that there must be no mistakes or omissions, and it must be done satisfactorily.

The first item was Nacai. Nangong Yanhua hired the most famous matchmaker in the capital with a lot of money, prepared thirty kinds of auspicious gifts, and chose a good day to bring them to the Lin Mansion to propose marriage.There are live geese, sake, white wine, japonica rice, millet, cattails, reeds, Selaginella, Jiahe, threaded clothes, five-color silk, acacia bells, Jiuzimo, fish, deer, blackbirds, etc., totaling more than [-] species .

Among them, the most rare ones were live geese. Nangong Yan led his people outside the city for three days before he managed to gather eight live geese that were of good quality and full of vitality.Apart from these eight, there were also bad-looking ones that died, and I don't know how many died.

The second item is to ask about the name. If you ask someone to match the horoscope, it means the combination of the top and the top.

The third item is Najib, which has passed the engagement.

The fourth item is to accept the levy, and the Lin family helped to find four well-wishers to make an appointment with the matchmaker. They brought the dowry money, gift money and dowry to the Lin family to formally seal the marriage contract.

The fifth item is the application period, set an auspicious day, and gave the auspicious day book and gifts to Lin's family.

The sixth item is the personal welcome.Lin Hanyu, the North Marquis of Second Township, and Xiao Liu and Xiao Qi, who were far away overseas, all rushed back to the capital before their personal reception, and were waiting to send their only younger sister to become a monk.

On the wedding day, half of the people in the capital came to congratulate each other, and some wanted to participate, but they didn't receive the invitation.Daiyu was dug up from the bed by the maid at the third watch, bathed, changed, opened her face, put on makeup, and combed her hair.After a lot of work, it's time to say goodbye to my parents.

Dressed in a fine dress, Daiyu was supported by her maid and knelt down to worship Lin Ruhai and Jiang Yingrong. Once she kowtowed, Daiyu's eyes became sour; after the second kowtow, her nose and hair were blocked;

"A daughter is not filial, and she cannot do her filial piety at her knees. She hopes that her father and mother will be healthy and live a long life."

"Get up, get up quickly." Lin Ruhai and Jiang Yingrong stood up and helped Daiyu up, time flies, the small group back then has grown into a big girl now, even though their hearts are sour, they all endured the thought of a good day , Comforting Daiyu with a smile on her face.

"The auspicious time has come, the bride, please enter the sedan chair." The matchmaker next to her urged her to get on the sedan chair.

Daiyu finally looked around at the big family in festive clothes, several sisters-in-law, nephews and nieces, and Mrs. Quanfu covered her head herself.Xiao Qi, who had been waiting at the side for a long time, carried Daiyu on her back. She hadn't seen each other for many years, and her younger sister, who was as precious as jewels, was about to get married after only a few days together.

Xiao Qi walked very slowly, as if he wanted to slow down the time, and he still did not forget to ask: "If my sister-in-law dares to bully you and make you sad, you must come back and tell your brothers."

"Yeah." Daiyu nodded while leaning on Seventh Brother's generous shoulder.

No matter how slow he walked, he soon reached the place where Xiao Liu was waiting. Xiao Qi carefully placed his sister on Xiao Liu's back, and Xiao Liu continued to carry on the next paragraph.Then came Xiao Wu, Xiao Si, the third child, the second child, and the boss who was waiting near the gate. Finally, the boss personally sent the younger sister to the sedan chair.

The seven people had all gathered at the door, standing together, some were majestic, some were handsome, some were imposing, some were sharp, each had their own characteristics, but they all looked at Nangongyan who was wearing a scarlet robe with secret warning eyes.There is a meaning revealed in the eyes: the younger sister is entrusted to you, then take good care of it, and always don't forget that there are seven uncles standing behind the younger sister.

Although Nangong Yan had no bad intentions, and had already prepared one hundred and eight ways to spoil his wife, but the eyes of the seven uncles all focused on him, and they couldn't help but feel a little weak for a while.Nangong Yanchao paid homage to the seven people, and at the urging of the matchmaker, he got on his horse and headed to the princess mansion.Nangong Yan decided to give the matchmaker a big red envelope later, definitely saving him in time.

Nangong Yan rode a white horse at the head, followed by eighteen large sedan chairs, accompanied by musicians playing music, and behind them was a team carrying dowry.The Lin family had already prepared one hundred and eight loads of dowry, plus the rewards from the emperor, the crown prince and the princes and ladies in the harem, as well as the makeup of some relatives and friends, so that every dowry was filled to the brim. Without leaving a single gap, the wedding sticks that lifted the makeup were bent a little.

It can be said that ten miles of red makeup crowns cover the capital.The dowry team lined up from the street to the end of the street, moving forward in an orderly manner. The first one had already entered the Princess Mansion, and the dowry bearers came out of the Lin Mansion in a steady stream.The streets are covered with red carpets, and even the trees and pavements on both sides are tied with countless red ribbons.Five steps away from the roadside stood a soldier, maintaining order, and the surging crowd was bustling with each other. They all stretched their necks to watch this rare and grand wedding ceremony. I am afraid that it will be difficult to see such a lively and grand event in the next hundred years. marriage.

When they arrived at the gate of the Princess Mansion, Nangong dismounted from his horse and walked to the gate of the sedan chair, and stretched out his hand to pick Daiyu off the sedan chair.Nangong Yan felt as if he was holding a piece of high-quality suet white jade in his hand, which was white and delicate, soft and boneless.Nangongyan carefully led Daiyu across the brazier, stepped over the threshold, and walked into the main hall of the worship hall.

In the main hall, the emperor and the queen personally acted as witnesses for the wedding.Because it is inconvenient for the king and queen of Southern Xinjiang to come, the emperor and queen are also the high hall this time.

"Worship heaven and earth!"

"Two thanks to the high hall!"

"Bye husband and wife!"

"Licheng, send it to the bridal chamber!" The ceremony official sang loudly.

Nangongyan placed the bride on the marriage bed, which had already been rolled over by a few younger generations of the Lin family, and now there are longans, red dates, peanuts, and walnuts on the "early birth precious son".

Nangong Yan leaned closer and whispered: "Lady, I'll come right after toasting my husband." I still didn't forget to scratch Daiyu's palm, and Daiyu's small hand tightened, Nangongyan chuckled softly, sleeve robe With a wave, he went to the front to toast with high spirits.

Daiyu was covered with a red hijab, and everything she could see was bright red. Not long after, a female historian presented a bowl of silver silk noodles: "Princess, please eat some food first." According to reason, a bride should not eat before lifting her hijab. Fearing that the daughter-in-law would be hungry and told her several times in advance, Nv Shi broke the rules and presented the silver noodles.Because the wedding venue was at the Princess Mansion, Nangong Yan packed his luggage and moved in three days ago, so he naturally had the opportunity to explain the female history.

Next to her was a witty dowry maid who helped lift up a corner of her hijab, and fed Daiyu noodles with chopsticks.After eating a small bowl of noodles, Daiyu's stomach, which had been empty for a long time, felt much better, and the fatigue on her body also eased a lot.Another maid waited on her and rinsed her mouth, and then sat quietly waiting for the follow-up procedure.

Nangong Yan doesn't have any brothers or friends here, he has to serve all the wine by himself, and no one can help him top it off.Originally, the only little brother Mu that he knew, Nangong Yan, had written all the posts, but he sent someone to find out that there was no family of officials in the capital with the surname Mu.Because Nangong Yan was only focused on preparing for the wedding, he didn't care about why the little brother disappeared out of thin air.

Nangongyan was already a little dizzy after coming down from the Lin family's table, not to mention the aristocratic sons of the capital who wanted to take revenge for taking their wives.Anyway, in the end Nangong Yan was carried to the door of the new house by two subordinates, Nan Tian and Nan Yan, and then the servants in the house took over and helped her to the marriage bed.

When they got to the marriage bed, Nangongyan tried his best to finish the hijab picking and drinking together with the last sliver of Qingming.At this moment, the serving maids retreated quietly. Nangong Yan looked at the beautiful woman who was close at hand with a pair of hazy eyes. She had excellent black silk, green eyebrows, almond eyes and silver stars, icy muscles and fine bones, and a beautiful beauty.She can even use her brain to recite a poem: "Jiaojiao is full of national beauty, slowly moving the lotus. Once she falls into a dream, she is haunted by her soul and dreams. How about calling you Jiaojiao as a husband?"

"The son-in-law is drunk." This man was really drunk, and he had the nerve to read such poems.Although he was flattering himself, his literary talent was really hard to compliment.And the name "Jiaojiao" makes people feel ashamed when they hear it, why is he calling it out so carelessly.

"My husband is drunk. It's just that everyone gets drunk when he's not drunk. I'm very happy for my husband. How about Jiaojiao calling me my husband? Son-in-law doesn't sound good." Nangong Yan took Daiyu's hand and placed it on his chest, Let her really feel her joy and excitement.

Daiyu's palm clearly felt the beating heart of the other party, and the beating seemed to carry a wave of enthusiasm directly to Daiyu's heart through the wedding clothes.Seeing the slightly wronged expression of the person in front of her because of the word "son-in-law", Daiyu lowered her eyes and called softly: "Mr.

With such a gentle call, Nangong Yan responded happily, and couldn't bear it any longer, hugging the charming person beside him, shouting "Jiaojiao, Jiaojiao..." That strength seemed to melt people into their flesh and blood.

The candlelight on the red candle is dancing responsibly, accompanied by the beauty and panting of the room, the night is still very long.When the love was strong, pity kisses fell one after another, and "Jiaojiao" was called over and over again, which made Daiyu's heart feel hot.

very nice!
