After the other party got in the car, Zhang Yan had to drive back home first, and prepare for the follow-up matters after the bride arrived home.
In the whole wedding ceremony, this journey can be said to be a period of anxiety in the bride's heart.Not only because I boarded the wedding car of my husband's family and gradually moved away from my own house, but also because the whole journey was accompanied by sorrow and joy, and the atmosphere was already extremely depressing.
Although Qiaoying's family is not in Luoyang, but in Lujiang County, Zhang Yan's wedding ceremony is just a formality, but after hearing what the ceremony official said, most brides will be in the wedding car, The mood will become a little depressed, and Zhang Yan, as a single pusher who was born in a later life, still inevitably has some small thoughts.
If Qiaoying was made to feel sad and sad on the way to welcome the bride, then he must have felt a little unwilling.
It's just that the process and rules of the wedding have been passed down from generation to generation, and Zhang Yan has no way to modify it into that kind of lively scene for future generations by relying on his own status.
Therefore, in order to weigh the gains and losses between the two, Zhang Yan did lose a lot of hair the day before yesterday.
Fortunately, in the end, under the prompt of the system, Zhang Yan managed to find a solution to both.
Quickly stepped back to the position two steps away from the door, and after knocking on the courtyard door a few times, Zhang Yan's enhanced hearing immediately heard a burst of sound in the originally quiet courtyard. The sound of confused footsteps.
Instead of making him wait any longer, just a few seconds later, the previously closed door quietly opened a gap.
"Master, are you here?"
A somewhat sluggish voice came from inside the gate, and Zhang Yan could only vaguely hear that it was the voice of the maid who followed Qiao Ying to his banquet, and couldn't help but be a little surprised that that person was the one who wanted to A dowry maid who married into the Zhang family with Qiaoying.
And after a few seconds of stalemate, he finally reacted, and then responded in the direction of the door with a voice.
During the Qin and Han Dynasties, since the Northwest Wuhu had not entered the Central Plains, there were many customs on weddings that were different from the regulations of later generations. Zhang Yan also studied and understood for a long time.
And this is the most typical, and also the most unbelievable, that this woman does not cover her head when she gets married.
Chapter 63 Big Wedding Three
According to the speculation of later generations, during the wedding process after the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the reason why the bride covered her head with a red cloth was because of the difference between men and women. Can not meet, to use the hijab as a taboo.
The other theory, which is somewhat extreme, but certainly possible, is related to the entry of the Northwest Five Hus into the Central Plains.
Two ○ Lu 8 (V) ⑥ [-] [-] ③
It is said that during the period of chaos in China, Han women often encountered robbery and snatching of relatives when they got married. Therefore, in order to prevent their daughter from being targeted by people with intentions in the crowd, the woman's father had to cover her daughter before she got married. Hijab, to isolate the prying eyes of those who have a heart.
And because the Eastern Han Dynasty that Zhang Yan lived in was chaotic at this time, but the Hu people had not yet gone south, so at the time of the wedding, the woman also exposed her face openly, and at the same time, she was married to her future husband at the time of the three prisons. Be honest.
Now the door in front of Zhang Yan finally opened, and he immediately saw a woman with a pretty face in a light yellow dress walking out from behind the door, it was just a few days ago that he had met once. Qiao Jin, the maid of the Qiao family.
After Qiao Jin stepped forward and bowed in Zhang Yan's direction, she turned around and opened the door, helping Qiao Ying who had been waiting behind the door to come out.
His eyes seemed to be frozen for a moment. Zhang Yan only saw that his fiancée Qiao Ying who had left a deep impression on him a few days ago was wearing a black pure dress that matched him as a wedding dress, and wearing a golden hairpin on her head. , walking slowly in front of himself with a glamorous face.But just looking at the other party's face, Zhang Yan's heart started beating somewhat disappointingly.
I saw that Qiao Ying had delicate light makeup painted on her face today, her whole person's temperament was not as immature as before, but the seductive aura of some young girls faintly escaped from the other party's body.
The luxurious golden hairpins and jade pendants are just adorned on each other's hair and earrings. Not only did they not overwhelm each other, but they set off Qiao Ying's perfect facial features exquisitely, and firmly attracted Zhang Yan's eyes to her. above the cheek.
Walking in front of Zhang Yan with a reddish complexion, Qiao Ying was both a little excited and extremely nervous at the same time.
Slightly lowering her eyes and not daring to look at Zhang Yan's face, she left the courtyard with the help of her maid, then lowered her head and stretched out her other hand in Zhang Yan's direction, signaling Zhang Yan Help yourself up.
Looking at his fiancée walking slowly in front of him with a dull gaze, Zhang Yan lowered his head slightly at this time, staring closely at the delicate eyebrows and eyes of the other party, watching Qiaoying's slightly trembling eyelashes, for a moment Can't help but become a little dazed.
And it wasn't until he heard a light cough from the ceremony officer behind him, that Zhang Yan suddenly came back to his senses, and at the same time swallowed a mouthful of saliva, then tremblingly grabbed the stick that was stretched out towards him. Flawless arms.
Maybe it's because she has no experience in getting married for the first time, or maybe it's because Qiao Ying is a one-off object that she has been obsessed with for decades. I shivered.
The feeling of coolness in the silky smoothness swept Zhang Yan's mind in an instant along his arm, making him a little confused for a while. Moisturize your hands, or the other person's skin really fascinates you like this.
On the other side, it seemed that Zhang Yan didn't expect Zhang Yan to help her as expected, but directly held her palm tightly. Qiaoying's body trembled slightly, not only her pretty face turned pink with embarrassment, but also her legs There is a faint look of being unable to stand.
……
"From now on, we will establish a good relationship and make a good couple."
"The red rope is tied early, and the white head is always together."
"The flowers are beautiful and the moon is full, and Yanyan Erzhi."
"Will swim in the sea and dry rocks, refer to the kite couple and make an alliance first."
……
Fortunately, this embarrassment didn't last long, and soon, the side had seen a lot, and even the more embarrassing scene than this had been seen before. At the same time, they read aloud the engagement vows that had been made in advance.
And when the courtesy officer's voice finally fell, Zhang Yan's big hand holding Qiao Ying gradually stopped trembling. Instead, while holding each other tightly, he carefully felt Qiao Ying's somewhat thin palm penetrate the skin. Faintly towards the warmth that came to him.
Looking at Qiao Ying firmly, Zhang Yan lightly moved his hand, leading Qiao Ying to his wedding car, that is, the four-horse carriage painted black.
On the other side, after feeling the power coming from the big hand, although Qiao Ying blushed, she followed him slowly, walking towards the carriage step by step.
"Why are you here so late?"
While everyone was not paying attention, Qiao Ying's voice as small as a mosquito rang in Zhang Yan's ears, and he turned his head in surprise, Zhang Yan suddenly found that although Qiao Ying was looking straight ahead at the direction of the carriage, , with a rather serious look, but secretly, her lips moved slightly, complaining to herself in a low voice.
But for some reason, after hearing Qiaoying's complaint, Zhang Yan lost the previous sense of nervousness, instead, he felt a little more at ease, and also felt a little better.
"I have prepared some things for you, and you will know when you get in the car."
Said to Qiao Ying in the same soft voice, Zhang Yan looked at the other party with a trace of obsession, and seemed to be full of love and longing.After hearing Zhang Yan's explanation, Qiao Ying snorted slightly, and then entered the rather luxurious carriage under the guidance of the ceremony officer.
Turning to face Zhang Yan under the carriage, Qiao Ying seemed to have finally made up her mind before the other party left, and secretly whispered something in Zhang Yan's ear.
But after hearing this whisper, Zhang Yan suddenly seemed to have been broken, and an irrepressible smile filled the corners of his mouth.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time."
With a simple six-word exit, Qiao Ying seemed to have exhausted all her courage, and slid back into the carriage, and firmly blocked the door curtain of the carriage, unwilling to say more to Zhang Yan. The last big character.
But standing under the carriage, Zhang Yan smiled uncontrollably after the other party said six words.
He gestured in the direction of the ceremony officer, and then with a smile on his face, Zhang Yan rushed towards his home one step ahead of the convoy.
And the eight servants holding torches followed the carriage driven by the ceremony officer and walked slowly in the direction they came from.
Chapter 64 Big Wedding Four
Leaving ahead of the carriage, Zhang Yan did not return home immediately. Instead, he contacted the group of children who had been arranged in the streets and alleys of Luoyang through his servants, and informed them that they had already passed away. When the time comes, you can start the plan you ordered earlier.
After making sure that he had notified everyone, Zhang Yancai heaved a sigh of relief, then he pursed his lips and chuckled and rushed towards his home first.
After he got home, he had to arrange all kinds of food needed to welcome Qiao Ying into the room and salute, as well as a series of necessities needed for the ceremony, such as the red tassels and candles used for the hair tie.
And walking along the main road in Luoyang City with a few bodyguard-like servants, Zhang Yancai was not far away from the line of sight of the wedding reception team, and his footsteps became a little joyful and brisk.
Just now, after helping Qiao Ying into the car, the other party once attached herself and whispered something in his ear.But it was these simple words that aroused Zhang Yan's emotions.
Unlike later generations, both men and women often have to go through the pre-marital love trial stage ranging from several months to several years before they officially get married. Because Zhang Yan is currently in a relatively strict etiquette, and at the same time, his values are extremely conservative. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, he only met Qiao Ying before his marriage. On this side, the other party did not play cards according to the routine, and changed clothes to mix with Zhang Yan so that the two could meet in advance.
But now the time has finally come to the sixth day of June, and the marriage between himself and Qiao Ying is about to be settled. Zhang Yan is already a little excited today, but after hearing Qiao Ying's whisper of expressing his heart in secret, he is even more ambitious. Satisfied, she wished she could rush home now and finalize everything.
It’s just that although Zhang Yan’s mood is extremely excited, as a public figure who has been awarded a title by Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Ling, he still tried his best to maintain his composure in appearance while he was on his way home. The common people who congratulated him also nodded slightly, with a rather calm look.
On the other hand, on the other side of the wedding reception team, after Qiao Ying returned to the interior of the ink car, her skin was red and swollen, and she was so shy that she couldn't breathe.
Shrinking herself in the corner of the carriage, Qiao Ying felt that with her relatively agile personality, it was expected that she would make such a small move.
I just don't know why, but when recalling the other party's obviously stunned and joyful look at that time, Qiao Ying felt a little bit ashamed.
After thinking about it for a long time, she couldn't come up with any results, and she could only attribute this matter to the fact that today is her wedding day, so it is inevitable that her emotions will change a little bit.
Before she could calm down, Qiao Ying saw her dowry maid, Qiao Jin, quietly lifted the curtain of the carriage, and poked her head in her direction.
In fact, according to the strict rules, except for the married bride, no one else can enter the carriage, which is also a kind of protection for the couple.
Just considering that Qiao Jin is the other party's dowry maid, and unlike ordinary maids, she will follow her for a long time after marrying together, so after roughly estimating the distance from here to her home, Zhang Yan is Discussing with the ceremony officer, Qiao Jin was also allowed to sit at the entrance outside the carriage in front of the carriage, which was regarded as a free ride, and she no longer had to walk back to her home with the group of strong men with a height of eight feet in high heels.
And because Qiao Jin and Qiao Ying have a very good relationship, there has never been any arrogance between the two of them, so Qiao Ying naturally has no objection to her fiancé's decision, and instead asks the ceremony officer When asked whether he would ride with him, he not only nodded slightly in agreement, but also thanked the ceremony officer.
At this moment, because Zhang Yan had to go back home to prepare in advance, the carriage did not move forward at full speed like when it first arrived, but instead slowly swayed in Luoyang City. Who dares to rob Zhang Yan, a newly promoted Marquis, halfway.
And when the speed of the car was not fast and the road was not too bumpy, Qiao Jin naturally sat steadily in front of the car, and even turned around to whisper to her young master when she had time.
……
"Young Master, you really know how to seduce people, Mr. Zhang... Ah, it's the Lord, his eyes were a little straight just now, and you probably took away at least half of his soul, right?"
With a smile in the corner of her eyes, Qiao Jin poked her head into the carriage, teasingly teased Qiao Ying who still had a faint blush on her cheeks.
After hearing Qiao Jin's words, Qiao Ying, who was still a little restless before, not knowing how to soothe her inner shame, suddenly found an outlet to vent, reached out and flicked the other person's forehead lightly with her knuckles.
"Jin'er, you still say it!"
"It's not that you told me that my husband would like this, otherwise how could I do such a thing on such a solemn occasion as the evening ceremony!"
With a blushing face, she complained to her maid, and Qiao Ying couldn't help but feel a little helpless deep in her heart when she thought of the other party's somewhat jumpy character.
As early as a while ago, when the two of them finished dressing up and were waiting for Zhang Yan to pick up the bride, Qiao Jin quietly told herself that she had learned something from some experienced women in Luoyang a few days ago. A lot of knowledge, and said it was some little tricks that could make my husband happy, and I kept encouraging myself to try it after seeing Zhang Yan, maybe it would have some special effect.
It's just that even though she didn't believe it, after meeting Zhang Yan, Qiao Ying still couldn't control herself, and she learned what the other party taught her word by word and said it to Zhang Yan.
Seeing Qiao Jin smiling like a fox now, Qiao Ying couldn't help but feel a little shy, so it was inevitable that she raised her hand and wanted to hit her.
After the two of them played around, Qiao Jin recalled Zhang Yan's reaction before, and comforted her heroine while chuckling.
"I can't help it. Miss Lai taught me this way, so I naturally conveyed the truth to you, Shaojun."
"No matter what, at least judging from the master's previous reaction, the effect is not bad!"
Chapter 65 Big Wedding Five
Smiling and comforting Qiao Ying, since she has no father and no mother, she was adopted by the Qiao family since she was a child, so marrying Zhang Yan with Qiao Ying is nothing difficult for Qiao Jin to accept, just It was like changing a residence, not only did he not have any negative and depressed emotions in his heart, but he was still sitting on the shaft shaking his calf, as if he felt some vague expectation.
On the other side, after hearing Qiao Jin say that her previous behavior seemed to be pretty good, Qiao Ying secretly withdrew her thoughts, and at the same time looked through the car window at the dark street in the distance, feeling a little melancholy in her heart.
Now that I got on the wedding car of this husband's family, I can say that I am a member of the Zhang family. Not only will there be very few opportunities to go home to visit my parents in the future, even going back to Lujiang may be a luxury.
And then followed Zhang Yan to live in his fief. If that place is far away from her hometown, it is very likely that she may not have the opportunity to see the customs of her hometown when she was a child.
Although after seeing Zhang Yan, Qiao Ying was quite satisfied with him, and at the same time, she had already realized her own choice in her heart, but when it comes to her expectations for future life and her age, she must Married far away, Qiaoying still couldn't help feeling some pain in her heart.
While staring at the quiet street not far away, Qiao Ying couldn't stop sighing softly when she heard the sad music played by the band next to her ear.
"Ugh……"
After all, no matter how you say it, Qiao Ying is still a young woman in her teens. Perhaps a few days ago, she might have attracted attention because of the prosperity and novelty in Luoyang City, but when she got on the wedding car at this moment, , she still inevitably feels a little nostalgic for her hometown and her life in the past ten years.
And not far in front of her, after hearing the sigh of her heroine, Qiao Jin also knew that Qiao Ying was not in a good mood, so she was sensible and didn't make any more noise, just sitting on the shaft of the carriage The above silently accompanied her.
After a while, Qiao Jin seemed to feel that the atmosphere in the carriage had become a little oppressive, as if wanting to find some topics, Qiao Jin spoke cautiously, breaking the silence in the carriage along the way.
