Red Mansion: I am Jia Lian

Chapter 190 The red candles were stopped in the bridal chamber last night

The eighth day of the lunar month is an auspicious day for marriage.

Wang Xifeng, who couldn't wait for this day, went to bed early last night. Because she was so excited, she fell into a lonely sleep and couldn't sleep at all.

Amid all kinds of beautiful fantasies, I fell asleep in a daze in the early hours of the morning.

In the morning, he was woken up by a group of women and maids. After bathing in fragrant soup, Wang Xifeng woke up.

Both Wang Ziteng and Wang Zisheng were officials outside, and the highest-ranking clan uncle was the temporary host at home.

Because the relationship between Jia Lian and the Wang clan was average, Wang Xifeng specifically asked her mother to come forward and warn the uncle.

Jia Lian, who had been planning for a long time, should eat, drink and sleep, and was not affected too much. After all, he had a channel to vent.

Wang Xifeng is very beautiful, a concubine and a fairy. People with aggressive and domineering personalities often admire Qiang.

As long as she was stronger than she expected, nothing would be a problem. When men dominated, Jia Lian in the original work couldn't bear it and dared to chase Wang Xifeng with a sword, which scared her to death.

Of course, there is no need for Jia Lian to do this. Today's Jia family has not reached that point. Although Jia Lian cannot make ends meet, Jia Lian has found a solution. As long as he is strong enough, as long as he can get money, he doesn't give Wang Xifeng the chance to use dowry to subsidize the Jia family.

There should be changes between the illiterate Wang Xifeng and the literate Wang Xifeng.

The last time Pi Hong rode a horse and paraded through the streets, it was the day he won the first prize. As the white horse slowly passed through Rongning Street, the roads were lined with red leather and colorful firecrackers. Accompanied by Li Dong, Lin Ping, Jia Rong, Xia Gang and the four groomsmen, they left Rongning Street and headed east, heading straight to Wang's house.

When entering the street where the Wang family is located, firecrackers went off again. The Wang family was also very concerned about this wedding and did not want the girl to be crushed before she could pass through the door.

Jia Lian, who was well prepared, still encountered many hardships, and it took him an hour to appear under Wang Xifeng's embroidery building.

Looking at the red carpet after entering the door, Jia Lian couldn't help but sigh, the Wang family is indeed rich.

It's strange that he has no money. Wang Ziteng is away leading troops and just doing logistics and supply business, making hundreds of thousands taels a year as if it's just for fun.

In fact, the Wang family only relied on the business of providing supplies and handling trophies, and their income in the past two years was two million taels.

And you don’t have to pay taxes.

After three poems to encourage makeup, Wang Xifeng, who was very noble and elegant, was supported by two maids and surrounded by eight maids and wives.

Because of the hijab, Jia Lian showed that he could not see Wang Xifeng. If he had not met beforehand, it would be a blind box.

Well, in many weddings during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the man could not see the woman beforehand. It was really a blind box.

In this era, the higher the family background, the more important it is for the daughter to emphasize that she never leaves the front door or steps forward, in order to show her nobility.

Because of the lack of exercise and the young age for marriage, having children is like passing through the gate of death.

After being carried onto the sedan chair by a rough lady, when Wang Xifeng sat firmly, she quietly raised her hijab, lifted a corner of the curtain, and peeked at Jia Lian through the gap.

In Wang Xifeng's eyes, Jia Lian stood out among the crowd, standing out from the crowd.

Thinking of becoming Jia Lian's wife from today on, Wang Xifeng's whole body trembled with excitement, finally waiting for this day.

At the beginning, the Wang family was not optimistic about Jia Lian, who gave up martial arts and became civilized, thinking that he might be another Jia She. At that time, Wang Xifeng had no choice. The Jia family needed the Wang family, so why didn't the Wang family need the Jia family?

Marriage between powerful people is not only because of the matching interests, but also the lubricant for future exchanges of interests.

The escorting team set off early, carrying Wang Xifeng's dowry and dragged it ten miles away.

Not only the Wang family, but also the four princes, eight princes and other noble servants also carried boxes and cages to join in the fun. These people did not go straight to Jia's house, but went around the inner city before finally going to Jia's house, which directly caused the entire capital to know about the marriage.

Jia Lian didn't know the original scene when Wang Xifeng got married, but he knew that it was difficult to rival Wang Xifeng's wedding scene today.

Through Jia Lian's wedding, despite all the secret discords between the four kings and the eight princes, they still have to show unity on the surface and tell the world, don't be provocative, we are united and we are strong.

In fact, after the efforts of two generations of emperors, the conflict of interests between nobles and nobles became more and more intense, and they were not as close as before. The more this happens, the more important it is for the nobles to show their unity and promote whatever is lacking.

Just like in Hollywood science fiction movies, the American emperor saves the world time and time again. The reality is that the United States is constantly sucking blood from all over the world to enrich itself. Film and television works and other literary and artistic works are all tools to please yourself. Never regard the works as reality.

If it weren't for the generals of the Jia family coming out in full force and more than a hundred cavalry escorting Jia Lian, many people would have forgotten what the Jia family was like. Anyone who knows how to do it will know just by taking a look at the fierce aura that as long as this iron cavalry protects Jia Lian, even in front of the two armies, it can protect Jia Lian from dangerous situations and protect these people before they are all dead. .

Jia Lian, who appears as a scholar, and Jia Jiang, who looks murderous, are combined, and the two completely different atmospheres are unexpectedly harmoniously mixed. It seems that at any time and anywhere, Jia Lian can change his clothes and lead these warriors to the battlefield again.

Although this possibility is very small, who can guarantee that it will not happen again?

Wang Xifeng was not only given a dowry, but also dozens of servants, so that she would not have anyone around her who could be useful after entering the house.

People all over the capital were talking about how much the Wang family spent on this wedding to buy such a dowry.

It is said that the box containing the gold collar alone required two boxes to be carried. One box must weigh eighty kilograms, right?
Various figures are flying all over the sky. A reliable statement is 300,000 taels, and an exaggerated statement is one million taels.

Taking into account the half-way interference and sponsorship of the nobles from all walks of life in the capital, the dowry may not be worth a million taels, but half a million taels is not an exaggeration.

Jia Lian did not have a clear figure on how much the Jia family spent on the wedding. He only knew that just to repair a courtyard in the northwest corner of Rongguo Mansion and buy various property, Jia Min, his aunt, spent fifty thousand taels.

On the way back, the wedding team scattered copper coins along the way. How many were scattered? According to the statistics of good people, it was one hundred baskets.

After the wedding ceremony, the welcoming team returned to Rongguo Mansion just before dusk. In order to show the importance of the marriage between the two families, perhaps because Wang Xifeng was wearing a wedding dress provided by the queen, the middle door of Rongguo Mansion was opened wide. In the past, when this door was wide open, there were days when the ancestors of the Jia family fought on the battlefield and triumphed, and there were also days when the imperial edict came.

Let's put it this way, when Jia Lian won the first prize, the gate of Jia's mansion was not even opened. It’s so high-end!
Wang Xifeng was carried by a sedan chair of sixteen people and entered the Rongguo Mansion through the main gate. When Mrs. Wang married into the house, she did not receive this kind of treatment. As soon as the door opened, it was not just to lift Wang Xifeng's hand, but to lift Jia Lian's mother's truest purpose.

From today on, we will establish a benchmark figure in Rongguo Mansion. It used to be Jia Zheng, but now as Jia Lian gets married, he must be replaced.

In fact, Jia Lian lived in Dongkuaoyuan before, but it was the lintel of Rongxi Hall that was propped up. For this, Jia Lian paid a fatal blow.

If Jia Lian hadn't carried it all, the reputation of Rongguo Mansion would have plummeted because of Jia Zhu and Ningguo Mansion because of Jia Zhen.

The wedding ceremony was held in Rongxi Hall, the most solemn place in Jia's house. After the process was completed, Wang Xifeng was sent to the courtyard northwest of Rongxi Hall, which will be Wang Xifeng's home base in the future.

Jia Lian was forced to stay, and today he is the protagonist. A banquet was held in the Jia Mansion, and a running banquet was also set up on Rongning Street. All local residents could come and eat and drink for free, and those who were related to the residents of Rongning Street could also join in the fun.

The grandness of this wedding reached its peak level at the level of the Duke.

Jia Lian was thankful for the pleasant weather in autumn. As he walked between the banquets, Jia Lian drank a lot of water.

Well, you have to bring your own wine pot, others add water to the wine, and Jia Lian adds wine to the water. Several of the groomsmen secretly expressed that they had given up their studies, especially Jia Rong, whose wedding was scheduled for next year, and they secretly rejoiced.

Amid the praise of "the number one scholar", Jia Lian stayed up until nine o'clock in the night before he was able to escape.

I saw so many people today that Jia Lian almost couldn't remember everyone. Thanks for hanging.

Feng Ziying, Wei Ruolan, Jia Lian met these two people for the first time today. Especially the mysterious figure Feng Ziying seems to be related to Qin Keqing. The son of Shenwu General Feng Tang, right?
Jia Lian moved into this courtyard in the northwest the day before yesterday. Now he was familiar with the way he entered the courtyard. After driving away Li Dong, Jia Rong and others who were still making trouble, Jia Lian saw Guixiang standing at the door.

With a slight expression on his face, Jia Lian went straight over and asked, "No one will make you feel wronged today, right?"

In front of a group of servants, Jia Lian's voice was not low. The servants of my family were fine, but the expressions of the Wang family's servants all changed.

Guixiang's slightly swollen chest puffed up and she whispered, "Today is a good day for me. Don't be angry for your servant."

Jia Lian hummed, without comment, but waved to a woman who seemed to be the leader, who was accompanying Wang Xifeng.

The woman hurriedly stepped forward to greet him and said, "My maid has met the second master. I congratulate him very much. My maid is from Lin Zhixiao's family."

Jia Lian pondered for a moment, is Lin Zhixiao? The steward who will be in charge of the bank in the future is very close to Jia Lian and is also the adopted son of Wang Zisheng.

Jia Lian didn't dare to think deeply about this relationship.

Jia Lian said something to Lin Zhixiao's family: "Whenever you see her from now on, you will call her Aunt Guixiang. Don't make a mistake."

This may be the first confrontation with Wang Xifeng. Jia Lian decisively raised Guixiang's hand.

Jia Lian turned around and said to Guixiang: "The servants who came from Dongkuaoyuan will serve you from now on. You have the final say on the courtyard where you live." This was said in front of everyone, Jia Lian could He is not a soft egg like in the original work, he must be hardened.

If Jia Lian were softer, Guixiang would be bullied to death by the servants of the Wang family.

If he can't even protect the cinnamon, what prestige does Jia Lian have?

Maybe people like Jia She and Jia Zhen would think that a mere aunt is not worthy.

With Jia Lian's words, all the servants, regardless of their origins in the Jia family or the Wang family, immediately agreed.

After demonstrating his status in the family in the strongest possible manner, Jia Lian stepped inside.

In the bedroom of the main house, Wang Xifeng quickly returned to the bed from the moment Jia Lian came in, covered her head, and Ping'er held a hot towel at the side and said: "Miss, wipe your mouth, there is still oil and water."

Well, Wang Xifeng will not treat herself badly and starve for a whole day.

As for Guixiang, Wang Xifeng actually said nothing or did nothing. The servants who came with her as a dowry would do everything well.

A maid came in and whispered in Ping'er's ear, and Ping'er decisively told Wang Xifeng.

Wang Xifeng, whose head was covered, made a dull voice: "I know!"

In any case, he was the head of the family. Even though he was a little unhappy, Wang Xifeng didn't think too much about it.

Jia Lian saw Ping'er first when he entered. Under the candlelight, Ping'er stood tall and graceful, especially charming. She was standing obediently next to Wang Xifeng. There are two women and four maids in the house, waiting for the final process to be completed.

The moment he took over the silver scale and raised his hijab, they said that a woman is most beautiful on her wedding day, and Jia Lian believed it.

This shy and pretty face made Jia Lian lose his mind for a moment, and he drifted for a few seconds before recovering.

Jia Lian said: "If you get a wife like this, what more can you ask for? From today on, we will live in the same fur and die in the same hole."

There are no gorgeous words, but they are the most touching love words in Wang Xifeng's heart. Sleep together when alive, bury them together when dead.

[Brother Lian really loves me the most! 】

After Wang Xifeng took off her clothes, Ping'er took scissors and cut off each of their hair. They tied it into a knot and put it into two small cloth bags. During the whole process, Jia Lian kept holding Wang Xifeng's hand and Wang Xifeng kept looking at Jia Lian.

Peanuts and dates were sprinkled on the bed, and after drinking the ginseng wine, the maids cleared the bed and got out, preparing to go to bed.

After the blessings of "giving birth to a precious son soon", the maids and wives all retreated, leaving only Ping'er.

Tongfang literally means that the bedrooms are connected.

Hongzhu shed tears until dawn, during which her daughter's house sang softly, ups and downs.

Perhaps because he kept walking for an hour every day, Wang Xifeng's body adapted quickly.

From being too shy to open her eyes to transforming into an octopus, Wang Xifeng's transformation was smooth and not too difficult.

Ping'er didn't stay at the scene to watch the battle. He went to the next room and stood behind the curtain to listen.

It was a little worrying at first, but then Ping'er couldn't stand steadily and had to reach out to hold on to the wall.

When the movement stopped, Ping'er quickly prepared hot water towels and sent them to the bedroom.

Ping'er didn't see pain on Wang Xifeng's face, but instead saw a look of flattery.

As for Jia Lian, Ping'er didn't dare to look at him and kept his head down to avoid him. He vaguely remembered that the last time he was pushed from behind through his clothes. It's not necessarily a knife that stabs someone in the back.

Lying in each other's arms, everything became quiet again.

Only the dragon, phoenix and red candle insist on burning themselves out.

Despite being a little tired, Jia Lian still won a brilliant victory thanks to his rich experience.

This is just the beginning. As time goes by, the difficulty of winning will gradually increase.

On the first day after the bride entered the house, Wang Xifeng was pushed out of her deep sleep by Ping'er. She looked at Jia Lian next to her, then at Ping'er, and whispered: "Let me sleep a little longer."

When Wang Xifeng got up, he lifted the quilt and exposed Jia Lian. Ping'er took one more look and then gave it a slight twist. He also gave a gentle warning: "There will be plenty of opportunities for you to see enough in the future."

Jia Lian slept very well and was not woken up. Maybe he was really tired.
