Chapter 95

Everything is ready, just waiting for the auspicious day.

On October [-], everything will be fine.

The ceremony of welcoming relatives is also the last ceremony in Liuli, solemn and rigorous, and more solemn than lively.

Early in the morning, Chu Xu was taken by his grandfather and other male elders to the ancestral hall to offer sacrifices to the ancestors, and told them that he was about to marry a bride.

The ancestral hall of General Zhen Guo's Mansion only enshrines the ancestors of the previous three generations, and the ancestors of more than three generations are enshrined in the imperial mausoleum.The father of the old general was the Duke of Zhen, his grandfather was the king of the county, and his great-grandfather was the prince; those who were more than three generations old were the first emperors. There are big clan's descendants, and it's not their turn to worship at home.

After kneeling down, Chu Xu had to listen to his grandfather's instruction.

The old man was dressed in strict attire, with a solemn expression: "Getting a family and starting a business are the two most important things in life. Now that you have a family, you should focus on the family business in everything from now on."

Chu Xu kowtowed and said "yes", and the old man said again: "Go to meet your wife and honor the ancestral temple! Go!"

Chu Xu kowtowed again, and said, "We dare not resign! Grandson obeys orders!" After finishing speaking, he stood up, took a pair of wild geese from the steward, and held them in front of Chu Xun, Chu Zhuo, Chu Yuan, Chu Qing and Zhang Cang. Accompanied by the bridesmaids, Chen Tianbao and others, together with Matchmaker Hao who had been waiting for a long time, they set off to Huaishu Hutong to welcome the bride with a guard of drums and music.

Firecrackers were crackling and exploding, amidst the sound of soft music, Chu Xu was wearing a crimson embroidered brocade robe today, with a three-clawed resplendent dragon embroidered on both shoulders and front and back knees, as well as clouds, seas, mountains and rocks. Wearing a jade leather belt, wearing leather boots, and wearing a Yuguan, the whole person looks extraordinarily high-spirited.

Chu Xu was sitting on a steed, surrounded by several clan brothers who also wore splendid python robes, and guard brothers in brand-new official uniforms. As soon as this group of people came out of the street, it immediately attracted many onlookers.There were even girls who threw handkerchiefs, sachets, flower balls, etc. at men regardless of whether they were married or not. Even Zhang Cang was thrown two or three flower balls.

Early this morning, Shi Chuying went to practice for a while as usual.When he came back, the room was already surrounded by Aunt Yue and a group of girls.

The third daughter-in-law of Li is from Quanfu today, and she is waiting to be promoted later, while Aunt Chen has already gone to the new house to wait.

Shi Chuying was given a bowl of Yungu porridge to eat, rinsed her mouth, put on her master's robe and went out. She had to pay respects to her ancestors before waiting for the welcoming team to arrive.

In the main hall of the Shi family, there is a new painting hanging on the wall above the altar. In the painting, an old man with long beard and long eyebrows is wearing a toga with long sleeves, and his clothes are fluttering. His face is slightly blurred, only a pair of phoenix Eyes seem to see through everything in general.

There were five utensils on the table, and the offerings were complete. The Wuming Daoist was wearing a maroon muslin robe, his hair was pulled up in a bun, and a bamboo hairpin was inserted. On his feet were a pair of Yungu bamboo shoes made by Shi Chuying.

He personally lit the three pillars of fragrance, bowed to the master, and handed the incense to Shi Chuying, symbolizing the inheritance of the master.Shi Chuying took the incense, bowed too, and put it on the incense burner.Then retreated to the side and stood still. The unknown Taoist priest stroked his beard and said: "After today, you will be a woman, and you will pass on your children and take good care of your family business."

Shi Chuying bowed and replied, "Disciple respects the order of the teacher!"

Unnamed Daoist held his sleeves again and said: "Since we are married, we should look for your family."

Shi Chuying pursed her lips, and replied: "I understand." After paying homage to the ancestors, the morning passed in a hurry.

At noon, Yulu brought a bowl of sweet thick rice porridge boiled by Yungu, and several dishes of refreshing side dishes.Shi Chuying looked as if she had turned into a sheep. Was this eating grass?There is nothing you can do if you are not happy, the bride cannot eat too much today, this is a common practice.

Aunt Yue stared at Shi Chuying as she finished drinking a bowl of porridge, Yuhua handed her pine perfume and rinsed her mouth, Yushu and other maids brought two large buckets of hot water, and set up a screen to wait for Shi Chuying to take a bath.After soaking in the bath, I used Yuyan Bean to help her wash her whole body. Her hair was also washed with homemade balm, and then she was taken out, and the water mixed with floral dew was passed again until she was washed. It must be fragrant and slippery.

"The girl's body is so beautiful. I've never seen it like this before. Not only is her skin white and translucent, it's also slippery, flexible and firm. It's been years since I've had such good skin.

The girl looks slender, but her bones are really thin, and her body is very fleshy to the touch. "Aunt Yue praised Shi Chuying's back while applying jade muscle ointment.

It's not that Aunt Yue is exaggerating, it's really that Shi Chuying has been nourished by the treasures of heaven and earth since she was a child, and after washing her tendons and cutting her marrow, there are no impurities in her body. Her current beauty is no longer the usual beauty and ugliness No matter the appearance, skin, charm or temperament have undergone fundamental changes, if the true face is revealed, it is not an exaggeration to be shocked.
