Chapter 43 The Betrothal Ceremony ([-])

Chapter 44 Engagement Ceremony ([-])
In order to welcome the Xia family to Hujiawan to hold the "Dading" ceremony, the old patriarch personally sent a message, and the entire Hujiawan took action. Just like the Chinese New Year, every household was tidy and neat.

Soon the Xia family came to "date" the day. The adults and children in Hujiawan put on their best clothes. From the main room to the floor of Hu Hai's family, dozens of tables were lined up.

In the Hu family's kitchen, more than ten people were busy, killing pigs and sheep, preparing water feasts.

Early in the morning, more than a dozen luxury carriages entered Hujiawan, dressed in jubilation. The carriages parked in the open space. The whole Hujiawan was full of joy, but it seemed a little crowded.

In addition to an elder from the Xia family leading the team, there were fewer than ten people at the ceremony this time, but unexpectedly, the city owner of Sunset City and the county magistrate of Taohuajiang also arrived.

The "Da Ding" ceremony officially began. Hu Hai and Xia Mu signed the marriage certificate. The city owner of Sunset City and the magistrate of Taohuajiang both signed it as witnesses.

After signing the marriage certificate, it is an exchange of tokens of engagement. It does not require precious ornaments handed down from the family, but is the daily belongings of the two children.Hu Zhengying's is a golden hairpin, and Xia Yang's is a jade pendant. These are commonly used tokens, meaning "golden and jade good luck".

Just after the two exchanged tokens and received the marriage certificate, a Buddha's horn sounded, and the mysterious nun appeared in the Xia family's ancestral hall, and miraculously came to Hu Hai's house.

The Hu Hai family was very nervous about the appearance of the mysterious nun. Fortunately, the Xia family also had several masters who practiced the ninth level of Qi, so they were not afraid of her doing anything.

Because this woman Nihuhai had met in the Xia family Zongtang, it did not prevent her from getting close to her daughter.The mysterious nun didn't say much, that is to say, entrusted by others, she left Hu Zhengying a copy of "Changchun Gong" and a copy of "Dan Jue Zheng Yao", and then went away.

Originally, the marriage between the two families was huge, which added a lot of talk for everyone after dinner, and the appearance of the mysterious nun put a mysterious veil on the marriage.

The elders of the Xia family first checked the two secret books, with a surprised look on their faces, because not only were they genuine immortal cultivation secrets, but they were also very compatible with Hu Zhengying's spiritual roots.

Changchun Gong is not a simplified version of the general merchandise, it is the real full version of the secret book, especially the method of condensing the consciousness and the alchemy manual in the "Pill Secret", which are all top-level inheritance.

Hu Zhengying's wood attribute Tianling root was determined by the patriarch himself. Few of the family knew about it, and Hu Hai's family knew nothing.

Although this mysterious nun's behavior is unknown, it has sounded the alarm for the elder Xia clan, and it is not a secret that Hu Zhengying is a wood-type heavenly root.

This is the top-level cultivator qualification that can cause the big brothers in the cultivating world to disregard their face and fight for it.

Although the Xia family also has a master of the Nascent Soul stage in the Heavenly Paradise, once someone fights for it, they will not be able to quench their thirst.

The matter of taking Hu Zhengying to the Xia family for training has been put on the agenda. The original plan was to do it slowly, so as not to cause the Hu family to be unhappy. Now it seems that we have to act early.

Picking up Hu Zhengying now is somewhat similar to the treatment of a child bride. I heard that the Hu family is very concerned about face, will they refuse to agree because of face?

Elder Xia called Xia Mu together to discuss it quietly. Xia Mu also had the same concern. In order to protect his daughter-in-law from an accident, he agreed to go to see what Hu Hai meant.

Xia Mu found Hu Hai and betrayed the Xia family's intention to take away Hu Zhengying's cultivation. Hu Hai understood as soon as he heard it, and said bluntly that he was not good at making decisions about this matter, and he had to ask his wife and the old patriarch. .

The old patriarch was also worried about the mysterious nun who suddenly appeared. No matter what the reason was, it was not a good thing for the Hu family.

Xia Jiashu is very popular, and there are not a few people who offend.They can't do anything about the Xia family. If they want to be detrimental to Xiao Zhengying, it is not something that Xiaoxiao Hu's family can handle.The old patriarch suggested that Hu Hai consider the arrangements of the Xia family.

Hu Hai went back to discuss with the lady again. Although the two were reluctant, things were a little out of his control, and he could only see what the Xia family meant.

When the Xia family and the Hu family were thinking about Hu Zhengying's safety, the mysterious female nun had already entered the Taoyuan Mountain Realm. She breathed a sigh of relief and said to herself:
"I have already done two of the three things I promised others. Ten years later, if I do the third thing, I can practice with peace of mind!"

She looked around and saw that there was no one around. She changed the majestic image of a treasured elephant on weekdays, like a lively country woman, picking wild flowers and humming a little song all the way to Taoyuan Nunnery.

In fact, this mysterious nun didn't even know that Hu Zhengying was a matter of Tianlinggen. She went to Hu Hai's house to send these two secret books. These are three things that were passed down from Taoyuan Nunnery many years ago, in order to repay the favor.

Taoyuan Nunnery sounds like a Buddhist nun temple. If you just look at the dress and clothes of the nuns practicing inside, it is an ordinary nun temple.

Taoyuan Nunnery is a Guanyin Temple built at the foot of Taoyuan Mountain. The temple is dedicated to the Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva. Outside Taoyuan Nunnery is a large phantom formation of peach trees. There is only a small road leading to the entrance of the temple.

Taoyuan Nunnery has a lot of fertile fields at the foot of Taoyuan Mountain. These tenants are all believers in the temple, and they will not lose the ground rent in the temple.

The Guanyin Bodhisattva in this temple is said to be particularly efficacious in seeking a child.

According to legend, Guanyin, the son of the goddess, was originally the third daughter of King Chu Zhuang of the Great Chu Kingdom during the Spring and Autumn Wars, and her name was Miao Shan.

Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva has actually become a bridge connecting the two religions of Taoism and Buddhism in the Shenfeng Continent.

The ordinary nuns in Taoyuan Nunnery also recite the Guanyin Heart Sutra, but the nunnery master is a single person, practicing the Taoist Changchun Gong and the Taoist alchemy technique.

Taoyuan Nunnery's secret elixir "Peach Blossom Dan" helps secular women conceive, and all women who come to the Nunnery to seek children will drink a cup of Taohua Dan Ling tea, so Taoyuan Nunnery's child-seeking is particularly effective.

The nuns in the nunnery practice Taoist exercises, which is an open secret in the Shenfeng Continent. Most of them worship Guanyin Bodhisattva, and they practice some secret Taoist exercises.

The main reason for this phenomenon is that after the separation of the world of immortals and the world of immortals, there is no place for female disciples in Taoist temples except for the large immortal family.

Those women who are unwilling to marry and who are dedicated to cultivating the Tao cannot stay at their parents' home to support the elderly.The cost of living is a trivial matter. For a girl who cannot marry, it is a hindrance to her family's reputation, so she can only rely on the nunnery to gain a foothold.

The Xia family was afraid of Hu Zhengying's loss, and the Hu family was also afraid of the fire at the city gate, so they quickly reached an agreement that the Xia family would take Hu Zhengying back to cultivate.

Hu Zhengying was a big kid and seemed to have anticipated this arrangement long ago. In turn, he reassured his parents that he would be obedient and obedient. Hu Hai's eyes were red when he said it, especially Li Maixiang, who was almost desperate to keep his daughter.
