The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 245 Chapter 230
After lunch, people were resting in the house. Duan Changsheng came over quietly and pulled Duan Wuji with his hand, and then said in a low voice: "Brother, go over quickly, Xiao Fuzi brought our grandma and master over just now, you hurry up." Go and have a look."

After hearing this, Duan Wuji quietly retreated from the west wing room, and followed his brother straight to the main room.

When I entered the house, I saw that my grandma and master were sitting in the house having lunch, and my parents were beside me.

When Duan Wuji saw this, he took a few steps and came to his grandma and master.He grabbed his master's hand and said, "Master, why didn't my uncle come over with him?"

"Hi! Your uncle has been very busy these days. Now every day besides land reclamation, he has opened dozens of acres of land.

Your uncle said that this year, no matter what, we must be self-sufficient and strive for a good harvest after autumn. "

Liucaihua laughed and said, "Dunzi is quite good at this point, um, he has ambition.

Father and mother, you will have a good life in the future, and you two elders can wait to enjoy the blessings in the future. "

"Well, who dares to say whether you can enjoy the blessing? But with so much money you bring, I'm afraid it will be too poor for ten or twenty years."

"Hey, son-in-law, how did your family get rich? Isn't this family too rich?

I'm afraid there is no such wealthy family as yours in a radius of one hundred and eighty miles. "

After hearing this, Duan Yanqing said with a smile: "Hey! Isn't this how much money Wuji has earned from selling horses in the past two or three years?
In the past, our house was also a thatched house, and there was no next meal after eating.

Hey, father and mother, you are here for this longevity wedding, just stay here for a while, you see, it is not easy to come all the way. "

Liu Qingyun shook his head after listening.

"No, son-in-law, you don't know, your brother is the only one left in our family now. He is starting a business now, and there is not even a housekeeper in this family. How can we do it after a long time?

After Dunzi gets married and the house is settled, we old couple will come to live here for a long time. "

After hearing this, Duan Wuji asked with a smile: "Master, hasn't my uncle found our aunt yet?"

Liu Qingyun laughed and said: "Now that matchmaker has broken the threshold, you said that with our family's current good conditions, what's the problem with finding a daughter-in-law?

Just because we now have that big yellow ox at home, which neighbors in the neighborhood are not very envious!

How convenient it would be to get married to our family and use cows. "

Duan Wuji smiled and said: "Master, this time you leave, our family will give you another cow. How fast are these two cows plowing the land?

After a year and a half, maybe this cow can give birth to a calf.

The two cows are used alternately, one is put on the field to graze, and the other is plowed. It takes half a day to change. How efficient is this work? "

"Then your house will be okay? We've already taken it away, so what else do you use for your house?"

Liu Laihua laughed and said: "Father, you don't have to worry about our family, there are more than a dozen cows like this in our family, and the ones that are missing one or two don't even show up.

When you leave, feel free to take one of them. "

"Well, that's fine."

After lunch, Duan Wuji said to Liucaihua: "The head of the family, hurry up and arrange for father and mother to rest. It's been such a long time in the car, and it's time to rest for a while."

"Well, well, master, don't worry about this matter. I will arrange it.

Changsheng, Wuji, you can go busy with your work, after all, there are so many guests at home, and there are still many things to take care of, why don't you worry about it? "

The two brothers smiled, greeted their master and grandma, and walked out.

At this time the sun has turned west, Duan Wuji walked around the house to take care of his friends.

Before long, bearers carried a sedan chair carried by eight people into the yard.

A lot of people surrounded the yard, and the time was short, Duan Wuji's good buddies also got enough rest and walked out of the house.

Everyone looked and looked around the sedan chair, not to mention, this flower bridge is really pretty.

Qi Guoyuan looked at the red sedan chair and said, "Brother Shan, how magnificent is this red sedan chair? You have to sit inside to be comfortable.

Brother Shan, after this matter is over, why don't you rent it for a couple of days?At that time, brother, I will also take advantage of you. "

The red-haired spiritual officer's face sank when he heard this.

"My dear brother, since you talk a lot, if you don't say a few words, are you afraid that others will sell you as dumb?

It’s true that the sedan chair carried by eight people is comfortable, but don’t you know how slow it is? We don’t lack arms and feet, so what do you think we are doing with that thing?Isn't that when you are full and free?

The bride wants to sit in a bridal sedan chair when she leaves the pavilion, it's for the sake of pomp, it's just for the sake of etiquette, it's okay, who will sit in this thing? "

Chai Shao listened to it and said with a smile: "Brother Shan, do you know the township? I didn't expect your brother to be so knowledgeable!

If you have time, can you also tell us about this knowledge?I love to hear this knowledge. "

Shan Xiongxin covered his mouth.

"Brother Chai, keep your word, can I keep silent? Your words make me ashamed."

Seeing this, Qiu Tianbao smiled and said: "Brothers, don't gossip about nothing, let's go into the house and discuss it, who will go to the wedding party later?

Let's not discuss this business, what's the point of arguing about it here?

Brother Wuji, do you think what I said, brother, is right? "

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Yes, yes, it's time for us to discuss the marriage.

Brothers, let's go, follow me into the house, let's discuss who will get married, so that we don't get caught blind when it happens. "

Tieniu laughed and said, "What's there to discuss? Why don't we all go at this time? Brother Changqing, what do you think?"

Duan Changqing listened and nodded.

"That's right. Our family is doing business. Can there be fewer people getting married? I don't care about others. Just count me in when the time comes."

At this moment, Duan Yingchun walked over with a smile, Duan Yingchun looked at Duan Wuji and Duan Changsheng and said: "Hey, you all come over here, let's hurry up and fix this wedding team, you see that it is also a good time now." It's getting late, we've already decided on this matter and it's over."

After hearing this, everyone followed Duan Yingchun into the room, only to see Duan Yanqing and Liu Laihua sitting in the room, everyone came in and found a place to sit down.

Duan Yingchun looked at Duan Changqing and said: "Boy, this time your elder brother Changsheng will marry you a sister-in-law. You and Changhong and Changhao, you brothers, go play the lantern."

Duan Changqing laughed when he heard this.

"Okay, grandpa can arrange us to do whatever."

Qiu Tianbao laughed and said, "Old man, there are two people playing lanterns, why did you arrange an odd number? Could it be that the position is reserved for me?"

Duan Yingchun laughed and said: "Young prince, don't joke with Wuxi, how can I arrange such an errand for you with such a high body injury?

I don't have the guts to be old! "

"Hey, old man, you are wrong when you say that. Why are there so many young princes? Here, they are all friends of Wuji, so where is there any young prince? I am the one who plays the lantern, that's all." deal."

Duan Yanqing laughed and said: "Young Prince, can this be done?"

"Hey, what's wrong with this? I say yes."

Well, that's it.

Duan Yingchun looked at Chai Shao and said with a smile: "Mr. Chai, don't you want to be a servant? I think this job is for you. It would be great to have you as the servant."

After hearing this, Chai Shao said with a smile, "Okay, then I'll be the gangster. Young Lord Qiu, I'm one rank higher than you, don't worry about it."

Qiu Tianbao smiled.

"Brother Chai, you will be your servant, what do I want?"

Duan Yingchun looked at Duan Wuji and Tie Niu and said: "Wuji, Tie Niu, haven't you two little brothers grown up as bannermen?
This is the face of my Duan family, you two should be the guards in this wedding.

In this way, our Duan family will look brighter. "

Tieniu and Duan Tianji laughed.

"Second Grandpa, we both obey your arrangement, and that's it."

Shan Xiongxin laughed and said, "Old man, I and my buddies will take care of the rear guards, and I will be their leader."

"Besides Shan Er, is this okay? With such a high status, can you arrange such an errand for you?"

"Okay, what's wrong with this? The young prince has already gone to play lanterns, so I'm not qualified for this job?
Hey, my dear brothers, when did you become officials?Why don't you explain it to the brothers? "

After hearing this, Duan Wuji said with a smile: "Brother Shan, our Banner Chief is just a fake official. He has no salary and no real power. He is just a bluff, so we didn't mention it to everyone." .”

"Oh, so it's like that? I can't blame you for being too shy to say it. But that's okay too, since our family will have an official in the future."

Chai Shao laughed and said: "Tie Niu, Wuji, this matter can't be over like this. When the marriage is done, you two brothers will have to treat each other with wine."

Tie Niu laughed when he heard this.

"Brother Chai, what's the matter? Can't we invite you alone when we come back? As long as you have time, it doesn't matter if we invite you every day."

The matter was settled like this, and then several tables of banquets were set up.People are chatting as they go to the table. "

It was not until very late that people stopped eating and drinking.

Chai Shao looked at everyone and said, "It's getting late, brothers, let's have some tea and let's go, it's not good to be late."

Everyone stood up, and Liu Caihua stuffed a large package of red envelopes to Shan Xiongxin.

"Brother Shan, here is a bag of red envelopes, you can distribute them to people."

Shan Xiongxin took the red envelope and said with a smile: "Auntie, it's a great job for me. Tonight I became that money-spreading boy."

"Well, let's spread the money boy, let's spread the money boy, who told us Shanxi envoys to do this."

Duan Yingchun shouted loudly: "Light the lanterns now, let's walk right away."

After hearing this, Duan Changhong muttered in a low voice: "What? Grandpa, are you going too?"

Duan Yingchun laughed and said, "Grandpa, what's the matter with me? This is the first grandson and daughter-in-law of our Duan family. Who do you think will pick me up if I don't?"

Why so much nonsense?Why don't you hurry up and light the lanterns?Let's go. "

"Hey, hey, I'll go right away."

Duan Changhong got a full beard, and Duan Changhong ran away as soon as he turned around.

Then, four bright red lanterns were lit.

Duan Changqing and Qiu Tianbao carried lanterns and rode at the front of the team on horseback. Duan Wuji and Duan Yingchun were in the second row of the team. Behind them were Duan Changsheng and Chai Shao riding side by side. Behind the red-topped sedan chair are Shan Xiongxin, Wang Bodang, Xie Yingdeng, Qi Guoyuan, Li Ruhui, Jin Jia, and Tong Huan.

Duan Changhong and Duan Changhao walked at the end of the team ahead of Lantern.

This wedding team rushed towards Taiyuan City in the dark, and rushed to the city gate to have a look, okay, the city gate has not been closed yet.

This team rushed straight to the tea shop in a mighty way, and went to the tea shop to have a look.

Ho!I saw that the front of the tea shop was brightly lit, and there was a festive atmosphere.

I saw two red lanterns hanging at the gate, and a dozen children and women were standing in front of the tea shop blocking the road, waiting for red envelopes.

Seeing this, Shan Xiongxin urged the horse to step forward, and began to hand out red envelopes to people one by one, one for each, and these people took the red envelopes and said auspicious words such as congratulations, and after a short time, these people dispersed happily .

People got off their horses and walked into the shop, only to see the owner and his wife of the tea shop waiting respectfully in the house.

When everyone entered the house, the owner of the tea shop hurried forward with his wife to say hello.

"Everyone, you came early enough! Come on, come in and go to the banquet quickly, so you can get on your way when you go to the banquet!"

Duan Changsheng laughed and said: "Brother, don't be too busy. We just had dinner and we don't have much time. We are not hungry. I don't think we should go to the banquet today."

"Hey, brother-in-law, how can I do it? For thousands of years, every time a girl is married, her mother's family has prepared a few tables of banquets. How can you do it if you don't eat it?

Isn't this the Chai official who is also here?
Brother-in-law, you are so proud of yourself, such a noble person is invited to move?I really didn't expect it! "

Chai Shao listened and said with a smile: "Boss Niu, you really know how to joke. I am noble? There are people who are more noble than me."

"Ah? Is there someone more noble than you?"

Duan Wuji smiled and said: "Brother Niu, let me introduce some friends to you today."

Duan Wuji pointed at Qiu Tianbao.

"Brother Niu, this is Qiansui, the Young Prince of Qiu Palace in our capital, and his name is Qiu Tianbao."

The owner of the tea shop was taken aback when he heard this, and then quickly bowed to salute.

"Little prince, the little people have blind eyes, but they don't know the young prince Qiansui. I don't think it's strange for the young prince."

Qiu Tianbao smiled and hurriedly returned the salute.

"Brother Niu, you don't need to be too polite. Today you are the lord, and I, Qiu Mou, are just a lantern bearer in the wedding team."

"Ah? Wuji, how dare you do it! How dare you let this little prince come to light the lanterns when your family is married? Isn't this looking for someone else?"

Qiu Tianbao laughed and said, "Brother Niu, what are you talking about? I voluntarily played the lantern, and I wasn't forced by others."

Then, Duan Wuji introduced Xin Xiongxin, Wang Bodang, Xie Yingdeng and others to the boss one by one, and the boss was surprised when he heard it.

"Brother, what kind of people have you made friends with? How come one is more famous than the other?

Come on, everyone, sit down, we must have a few drinks with him today. "

Finally, Duan Wuji pointed at Duan Yingchun.

"Brother Niu, this is my family's second grandfather. He is here to pick up our relatives on behalf of our family."

Boss Niu was really going to come, and immediately fell to his knees.

"Second Grandpa, I don't know it's your old man, but I'm here to salute you."

When Duan Yingchun saw her, she quickly reached out her hand and smiled.

"Boss Niu, don't be too polite, we will be a family from now on, get up quickly."

Duan Yingchun looked at everyone and said: "Everyone, sit down quickly and eat something. Let's go on our way right away after we eat something."

Everyone also knows that tonight's banquet is a formality, but this banquet must be attended.

After everyone sat down, they ate a few mouthfuls indiscriminately, then stood up and walked out the door.

Boss Niu's wife, Amei, helped her sister-in-law out of the house, and then the two of them sat in the sedan chair together. As soon as the team turned around, they rushed straight to Duan's village.
