Beautiful step by step

Chapter 24

Accompanying Yan Heng to welcome the bride are several soldiers in robes. There are many wars in the northwest, and the soldiers who have experienced the baptism of war have a murderous look that has seen blood. Even if they take off their armor, it is difficult to hide their sharp edge.

The neighbors who were invited by Mother Wei to embarrass her in-laws were all a little apprehensive, the sound of the suona stopped, and there was a rare silence in front of the door.The lady shopkeeper of the rice shop remembered that her husband-in-law said when he mentioned Yan Heng that "a rough man loves his daughter-in-law", and finally stood up boldly and stood in front of the door with her arms stretched out.

"The girl's house is so delicate, how can I let you greet her casually. If you want to enter the door, you have to go through our gate first."

The neighbors are like waking up from a dream, what are you afraid of on the big day?Everyone stood in front of the door to form a human wall. Seeing the shopkeeper's lady was even more courageous, she took out a sandbag and pointed to the young boy next to her.

"One of you will play sandbags against Dani. If you lose, how will you be punished?"

"Give out red envelopes!" Everyone booed repeatedly.

Behind Yan Heng, Ding Youde was carrying a basket of red envelopes.It is said to be a red envelope, but in fact it is to use red paper to seal some copper coins, wedding candies, and silver coins, and send them to neighbors when welcoming relatives to celebrate.Yesterday, the brothers stayed up all night until their hands became numb. At that time, he still felt that Yan Heng was too careful, and it was completely useless to prepare so much.This time, he saw a woman standing in the crowd, a woman who had a husband who was invincible, and he suddenly felt that the basket in his hand was not enough.

His scalp was numb, Ding Youde stepped forward according to what had been discussed in advance.

Holding the sandbag, Dani raised her head and sighed like a grown-up: "The groom looks really good-looking, so let me kick it easier."

Ding Youde stared at the sky speechlessly, it doesn't matter if you have a difficult kick, little girl, I am not the one who is impatient.Yan Heng can marry such a beautiful daughter-in-law, we are envious and jealous and want to make things difficult for him.

A sense of oppression came from behind him, Ding Youde quickly stopped his thoughts of harming others and benefiting himself, and kicked his hands and wheels.Dani said it was simple, but he kicked the sandbag in front and back, his hard bones couldn't do it at all.Seeing that the sandbag was about to fall to the ground, he quickly picked it up with quick hands.Turning his mind, he asked the child next to him for two more sandbags, including the one at the beginning, and the three sandbags were thrown out by him in turn, and the throwing became faster and faster, and finally formed a semicircular trajectory in midair.

"it is good."

I don't know who took the lead in booing, and there was applause from all around.Sweating all over, Ding Youde begged for mercy: "Everyone, please do me a favor, if I throw it down again, I won't be able to hold the wedding wine with my arm today."

The shopkeeper's wife enjoyed watching it, and waved her hand: "You pass the test."

Yan Heng handed over the basket without making a sound, and Ding Youde grabbed a few handfuls and scattered them around.The adults stretched out their hands to pick it up, and the children nimbly jumped up and down to grab it. After grabbing it, they chirped and showed off what was inside, and the scene was extremely lively for a while.

After being aroused by the good beginning, everyone is not afraid of these soldiers anymore.Jumping the big rope, breaking the wrists, stacking arhats, etc. There are a lot of tricks, and the climaxes come and go, and everyone who welcomes the bride is sweating.Seeing people gradually pouring in from all around the bustle, laughter and laughter overwhelmed the sound of horns and suona for a while.

Seeing that the sun was setting to the west and the auspicious time was approaching, Yan Heng cupped his hands and said: "It's getting late, everyone should be accommodating. Today coincides with the Qiqiao Festival, and the curfew will only start at midnight. If you don't enjoy yourself, come and have a drink together later." Wedding wine."

"it is good!"

"What's so good!" The shopkeeper's lady raised her voice and suppressed everyone: "The bridegroom officer hasn't played yet, so you come to the last stage in person."

Yan Heng cupped his hands: "It should be like this."

The shopkeeper's lady came over: "It's not that I'm bad-mouthing, it's not easy for women. When you're a girl, you can't be as free as your brothers. After you get married, you can't be free. You have children and take care of the backyard. Every year, it turns from a green onion to a yellow-faced woman. The girl in the family is very handsome now, so the groom is naturally willing to pamper and protect her, but who knows what it will be like in a few decades. In this way, in front of so many people today, you carry the fat sister around. In the future, even if Ah Mao does not Looks good, you can't have newcomers and forget the old ones, and let people bully her casually."

After the shopkeeper's wife finished speaking, the fat sister-in-law walked out from the crowd.As her name suggests, she is wider vertically than others horizontally.

Yan Heng's face was troubled and he didn't move for a long time. Seeing the surrounding quiet down, the shopkeeper's lady's expression changed: "What does the groom mean?"

Behind the gate, Mother Wei, who had been silently listening to the movement outside, showed doubts. Brother Heng is not like this kind of person.Gu Yu, who was listening with her and running around spreading the news, saw this and stomped into the room to learn her tongue.

"Who is the fat lady?"

Gu Yu tore off the veil, filled with righteous indignation: "What time is it, the girl still cares who the fat sister-in-law is. Young master is not even willing to put on a show now, and in the future, he will not find another troublesome little fairy."

Wei Wei burst out laughing: "Who taught you these words. Gu Yu, don't worry, take care of yourself, if you are welcomed, and asked to carry a plump [-]-year-old old man in front of your in-law's house, would you be happy?"

"Of course not, no, how can this matter be compared. If a girl's family is disowned by her husband's family at the beginning, she will not be crushed to death in the future. On the contrary, if she is a man, she must kill him severely."

Wei Wei had to admit that what Gu Yu said was reasonable, she paused and said firmly: "Ah Heng is not such a person, there must be something hidden in it, you go outside and have a look."

Gu Yu walked out angrily, she wanted to see if there was anything hidden.

Before I got close, I heard a firm voice from outside the door: "Yan understands what everyone means, but I don't know Fat Sister-in-Law, so I don't dare to offend you at this moment. If you really want to recite someone, it's not impossible. Everyone present Only the mother-in-law is the most suitable."

Although she had a good idea in her heart, Mother Wei walked out with a little bit of anxiety.Seeing her, Yan Heng came over and explained softly: "The most important person in Ah Mao's heart is mother. Today I will carry you around, and in the future I will carry her when Ah Mao reaches this age. Mother looks good."

Seeing Wei's mother nodding, Yan Heng squatted down: "Mother, come up and hold on."

The surroundings were silent at first, and after a while, someone said "This is a great filial piety", and then there were praises one after another.People in the world value filial piety, but this kind of filial piety is mostly for the daughter-in-law to serve the parents-in-law, and it is rare for the son-in-law to be filial to the mother-in-law.But if there is no daughter in the family, who doesn't want the married girl to be respected by her husband and live in harmony and beauty.Although the groom's official didn't say it clearly, but he treated his mother-in-law like this, so the bride must be no different.

Chu Lian who came in a hurry just happened to see this scene. Yan Heng, who was dressed in auspicious clothes, walked slowly in front of the person who congratulated him, step by step, with Mother Wei on his back.When passing in front of him, Wei's mother with red eyes was stunned for a moment, but Yan Heng's expression did not change at all.

"Today's honorable guest, I will thank you son on behalf of Grandma. It's still early, son might as well stay and have a glass of water and wine."

Seeing him face the spectators on the inner three floors and the outer three floors with an open expression all the time, and taking Ah Mao into his protection circle as a matter of course when talking to him, Chu Lian's heart felt empty.But he had to admit that he was not as good as Yan Heng.Although he can make Ah Mao rich, but his background determines that he will never be able to marry Ah Mao rightly and honor Mother Wei in an upright manner.

The man in front of him could meet all of Ah Mao's expectations.Thinking of this, Chu Lian suddenly became enlightened.Didn't he hope that Ah Mao would live a happy life since he was a child?Since he was destined to be unable to protect her, why did he stop others from protecting her.

"Of course I want to drink Ah Mao's wedding wine. But before drinking, I have to carry her into the sedan chair. Don't forget that I am Ah Mao's elder brother."

Yan Heng's expression tightened, and then the corners of his lips rose: "Then Yan thanked uncle in advance."

Uncle... Chu Lian choked.Why didn't he come earlier, stand in front of the door and write poems and songs to make a living, this vulgar soldier!
When the eyes of the two met, Gu Yu trotted into the room with a happy expression on his face: "Girl, uncle said he doesn't touch strangers casually, and now he is walking outside with his mother behind his back. Those people outside are jealous, one by one They all envy the girl for finding such a good uncle."

Heartbroken, Wei Wei pulled down the hijab, the corners of her lower lips raised high, she was right about Ah Heng.

When she was seen carrying her into the sedan chair, she was told to "make a face for Yan Heng in front of others in the future", "If the queen bullies you casually, tell him if Yan Heng dares to fight back", "Take care of the family's money, and make trouble whenever a man has money." After Chu Lian, who seemed to be standing in the position of a married man and imparting all his experience, the corners of Wei Wei's lips rose, and Chu Lian finally thought about it.Having said that, it's nice to have an older brother.

"Eldest brother too, although Wu's family has something wrong, but you are the pillar of the Zhenbei Hou's mansion. As long as you are strong, others will not dare to despise the Hou's mansion. In fact, I am very envious of Wu's family. She has an elder brother to support her. I also look forward to that day.”

Chu Lian slowed down her pace, and with a mop of her hands, she arched upwards, "There will be such a day."

It was time to speak before the sedan chair, Wei Wei sat down and said relaxedly: "I believe in elder brother."

With the sound of the suona, the Xi sedan chair got up, and she sat in it swayingly. After a while, her wound, which hadn't fully healed, was slightly swollen and painful.Changing the sitting position relieved the pain, and finally heard the voices of people in the Yuelao Temple outside. Crossing this street was the Xitang, the team suddenly stopped, and provocative voices came from not far away.

"I heard that the groom gave a lot of money for the wedding. Looking at the long row of dowry, the bride must not be short of money. This is just a holiday, and the double happiness is coming. The groom will give some money to let us poor beauties Happy site."
