Chapter 140 Getting Married (I)

Zhao Zhen wore a red wedding dress and rode on a snow-kicking black horse. He was surrounded by people carrying vases, candles, incense balls, saros, makeup boxes, mirrors, skirt boxes, clothes boxes, hundred knots, green umbrellas, and chairs. He welcomed the bridal sedan, beat gongs and drums, and headed to Xixi Village.

Yesterday, when Cheng Wan'er had just arrived, Zhao Yuanli came to urge her to prepare the makeup. Flower buns, gold-plated veils, five male and two female flower fans, pollen, wash necks, painted money and fruits were all ready. Zhao Duguan also returned with gold and silver double-victorious imperial robes, Luohua Futou, green robes, boots, and hu.

Cheng Wan'er's wet nurse, Zhao Duguan's wife Zhao Chengshi, and a maid came to the bridal chamber to hang curtains, lay out the box, jewelry, and other items, guard the bridal chamber, and prevent outsiders from entering, warming the room for the newlyweds.

Today, Dong Laodao was invited to be the ceremonial officer. After raising the eaves, blocking the door, scattering grain beans, turning the mat, crossing the saddle, sitting on wealth, sitting high, paying the door with a lucky money, holding the scarf, visiting the family temple, spreading the curtain, bunting, and drinking the wine together, Zhao Zhen finally got married. This is much more complicated than when Bai Zhi and Jin Cui Lian were married.

The etiquette seems complicated, but none of them is redundant. Some are to pray for the safety of the newlyweds and many children and blessings after marriage, such as laying the room and scattering grain beans; some are to wish the couple a happy marriage and respect each other like guests, such as spreading the curtain, bunting, and drinking wine together; some are to exaggerate the peaceful and festive atmosphere of the wedding and announce the marriage news to people, such as raising the burden and blocking the door.

Zhao Zhen had only seen it at his brother Zhao Xiang’s wedding, and the process was not as complicated as this. For example, there was no scattering of grain beans. Zhao Zhen also felt novel when he saw it today.

Cheng Wan'er got off the sedan chair, and Taoist Dong held a bucket filled with grain, beans, money, fruit, and grass, and cursed and threw it around the door. The children in the village scrambled to pick it up, which was called scattering grains and beans.

Zhao Zhen secretly asked Taoist Dong, and then he knew that this was to drive away the three evil gods. The so-called three evils are the gods of green sheep, black chicken, and green cow. If the three are at the door, the newlyweds are not allowed to enter. Violating them will harm the elders and have no offspring. Grains, beans, and grass are liked by the three evil gods. It is probably that if the three evil gods are fed, they will not make trouble.

Needless to say, the wedding banquet was lively. Now it is the harvest season again. Zhao Zhen even ordered to slaughter a yellow cow, kill more than a dozen pigs and sheep, chickens, geese, fish, and ducks, all of which were fat, and all the delicacies from the mountains and waters were brought up. A banquet was arranged to entertain all the heroes and managers. The continuous banquet lasted for two days to entertain the farmers who came to congratulate.

That night, Zhao Zhen returned to the bridal chamber early. When he pushed the door open, he saw Cheng Wan'er sitting on the newly built rosewood flower column bed with a beautiful full moon and auspicious cloud pattern, accompanied by two little maids. The one who worked in the warm room yesterday was called Qingzhu, and the other was called Danju. When they saw Zhao Zhen, the two little maids hurriedly stood up and called out, "Son-in-law." They went forward to serve the two to drink the wedding wine, and then went to the outer room to guard.

Zhao Zhen then took a closer look at the person in front of him, and saw:

Her fingers were as tender as lotus pond lotus roots, and her waist was as weak as Zhangtai willow.

Her steps were like flowing gold, and her peach cheeks were reflected by her emerald eyebrows.

Tonight, when I look back under the lamp, I always see a jade fairy descending to the Wushan Mountain.

Zhao Zhen said, "My lady, let's rest."

Cheng Wan'er blushed and murmured, "Hmm."

It was not the first time for Zhao Zhen to do this. He blew out the lamp and got on the bed. That night, Zhao Zhen and Cheng Wan'er made love, and there was no need to describe their affection.

On the second day, Zhao Zhen and his partner got up and washed. Bai Zhi and Jin Cui Lian were waiting in the hall downstairs. When they saw the two of them coming downstairs, they hurried forward and asked Cheng Wan'er to sit up. The two of them served tea and called her sister, which was considered to be the order of seniority in the family.

Zhao Zhen took the opportunity to look at Cheng Wan'er while the three of them were talking.

Zhao Zhen looked at Cheng Wan'er, who was not only beautiful, but also had excellent talents and temperament. Although it was a marriage, he was very satisfied now. When he came to his senses, he saw the three of them smiling sweetly and getting along harmoniously. Zhao Zhen called out, "Madam, I practice boxing with Zhi and Lian every day. It's not a killing martial art, but just for strengthening the body. Madam, do you want to learn?"

Cheng Wan'er heard this and saw that Bai Zhi and Jin Cui Lian were indeed wearing shorts, while she was wearing a green striped shirt and a tight-fitting colored gauze skirt with gold mops. She said, "My husband and sister go first, I'll change my clothes."

As she said this, she got up and went upstairs to change clothes. Zhao Zhen and the other two went to the courtyard to wait. After a while, Cheng Wan'er changed into a short-sleeved dress and walked out.

Zhao Zhen then saw that Cheng Wan'er's feet were turned outward and she frowned when she walked. Then he remembered that Cheng Wan'er might be particularly obsessed with him because of the white jade ring on her hand. Zhao Zhen didn't think much about it. Last night, Meng Wang was so careless that he didn't care that it was his first time to be with his wife. He tossed around for a long time. If Cheng Wan'er hadn't been physically exhausted, they wouldn't have stopped until who knows when.

Zhao Zhen said, "Qingzhu, Danju, bring a chair and let Madam sit down. Madam will watch you today and we can practice together in a few days."

Cheng Wan'er blushed and sat down on the edge. As usual, Zhao Zhen and the others started playing Baduanjin and then Five Elements Boxing.

Then, the four of them had breakfast together, with Qingzhu and Danju waiting on them.

After dinner, Bai Zhi and Jin Cuilian still went to Xixi Village, and Zhao Zhen accompanied Cheng Wan'er back to her room.

Seeing that Cheng Waner was inconvenienced, Zhao Zhen helped Cheng Waner to rest on the couch. He saw a piano on the table and said to Cheng Waner, "Is this piano the wife's dowry?"

Cheng Wan'er was half lying on the couch, leaning on the quilt, and replied: "Ms. sir, my father got this piano when he was a child. The slave family used it for more than ten years. Before getting married, I begged my mother to make it a dowry. This piano Comes from the palace, Xuanhe style. Look, the neck and waist of this instrument are both concave and convex, with a soft outline and a shallow concave on the forehead. It is five feet five inches long and eight inches eight inches wide at the forehead. The shoulder is nine inches wide, and the tail is six inches wide. It is wide and long, with a black lacquered snake belly. The name of the instrument is on the pool, and the diameter is more than an inch. The Yin text on the bottom of the pool is "Blue Sky and Blue Sea", and the Yang text is "Moon Pendant Wind Ring". . They are all filled with gold paint. They are white jade feet and are called Mei Shaoyue.

As if she was afraid that Zhao Zhen would dislike the small dowry she brought, Cheng Wan'er immediately said: "Because my father was robbed on his way to his post, many of his belongings were lost. The Nu family also had a large red sandalwood bed carved with dragons and phoenixes, and it was the granddaughter Tong Jiaoxiu who looked like a child. All the things they had won were now sunk in the lake, and the distance between Dongping Mansion and Liangshan was difficult to escort. In addition to the bedding and clothes commonly used by slaves, the dowry only consisted of red rulers, vases, copper plates, silver wallets, belts, etc. A small item. Before leaving, my mother gave me this small box made of sandalwood. I saw it on the way home and found that there were only one hundred taels of gold in it." After saying this, he looked at Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen said: "It is my blessing that Lord Taishan can marry my wife to me. It is better than any dowry. Liangshan is a big country with thousands of hectares of fertile land. I just need to feel at ease."

As he spoke, Zhao Zhen fiddled with it twice. The sound of the piano was crisp and clear, and he praised the piano for its good performance. The two talked again. Seeing that Cheng Waner was low on energy, Zhao Zhen asked Qingzhu and Danju to take care of the eldest lady. Zhao Zhen went ahead to practice martial arts with Guanghui and others.

At noon, Zhao Zhen had lunch with Cheng Wan'er. Seeing that Cheng Wan'er was in much better spirits, Zhao Zhen said: "Madam, except for Qing Zhu and Dan Ju who are waiting in the room, Zhao Duguan, Cheng Wan'er and the two little ones are here. Sis, do you have any ideas?"

Cheng Wan'er pursed her lips and said: "My husband, there is a saying: obey your father at home, and obey your husband when you get married. Zhao Duguan and Cheng Nanny used to be stewards of the mansion. If there are suitable positions in the village, these two can do it." They are competent. These two young men are also born in the same family. They are the most loyal. They are still young and can only do errands. My husband can arrange it himself. "

Zhao Zhen nodded and said: "Madam is the wife that I am marrying. I have something to go out these days. After a few days, I will summon the village stewards and village guards to come to my lady's office to report today. Later, the village will ask my lady again." Worry a lot.”

After saying that, he took out a bunch of keys and handed them to Cheng Wan'er, saying, "These are the keys to all the places in the village. From now on, they will all be with you, and I will take good care of them."

Cheng Wan'er took the key and her face turned rosy.
