Text Chapter 64 Wedding (Part 2)

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    When they arrived at the door of Chao's house, they saw two women holding a bouquet of fire, waiting for the bride's sedan to arrive, and then walked half a circle around the bride's sedan to exchange torches.

    This is called "burning the sedan chair" to prevent unclean things from following on the road.  These two women are also particular about being "perfectly beautiful" with husbands and children.

    After getting off the sedan, the people who followed the Hu family put the chair they had used to get on the sedan in front of the sedan. Hu Sanniang sat directly on the chair and was carried by her family members to the courtyard.

    As soon as they entered the courtyard, people on both sides began to scatter red and green paper scraps and grains into the air, with some copper coins and candies mixed in. Ruan Liang, Xu Sheng and other children rushed to the ground to pick up the candies and copper coins.

    The purpose of scattering grains is to suppress the three evil spirits of green sheep, black-bone chicken, and green ox. If a newcomer enters directly, it will harm the elders and the childless.  Spreading grains can make the three evil spirits retreat.

    The newlyweds were led to the heaven and earth table in the courtyard of the new house, and then Hu Sanniang was placed on the blue cloth that had been laid out.

    In the middle of the heaven and earth table is a bucket with the word "happy" on it. It is filled with red sorghum, with a steel scale, a weaving shuttle, and a sling of money stuck on it. Traditionally, men farm and women weave the things they need to live.  After the men farmed, they had to sell the crops by the pound, while the women weaved at home.

    But for Chao Yong and Hu Sanniang, these two things seemed to be of no use.

    ??Then the couple worships heaven and earth, the high hall, and the husband and wife worship each other.

    After paying homage, they are sent to the bridal chamber.

    Just as the person carrying the chair from the Hu family was about to go up, Ruan Xiaoqi had already rushed up and said: "No need for the chair, let the groom carry the bride in."

    Before entering the bridal chamber, the bride must not touch the ground with her feet.

    Chao Yong saw Ruan Xiaoqi and others starting to make trouble again, so he had no choice but to let them play for a while, and then carried Sanniang into the bridal chamber.

    Although Chao Yong was born with supernatural powers, he was teased by Ruan Xiaoqi and others all the way. In addition, he was wearing too many clothes. When he put Sanniang on the new bed, he was sweating profusely.

    A crowd of people followed Chao Yong into the bridal chamber and shouted: "Okay, it's time to see the bride."

    Chao Yong was just about to reach out to remove the red veil, but Lin Chong stopped him and said, "Brother Yong, don't move. It's not you who removed the red veil. Everyone, give way and let all the Americans come over."

    Ruan Xiaoqi pushed the people next to him away and said with a smile: "Quickly give way, the groom can't wait any longer, otherwise he will do it himself again."

    Although Chao Yong has also absorbed the memory of the original owner, overall the memory of later generations has the upper hand, so there will be some actions of later generations from time to time.

    Being teased by everyone, I couldn¡¯t help but blush.

    Everyone made a way, and an "American" came over, using the scale pole to pick the hooded red girl, and sang: "Listen, grandma, give birth to the baby, hooded head red, pick three peaches, and next year I will give birth to a white and fat baby. One pick  , I want to be an official, not a whipper; for the second pick, I want someone who is rich, not someone who carries a basket; for the third pick, I want someone who rides a horse and shoots arrows, not someone who pushes a cart and carries a load."

    After singing, he quickly took off the red veil.

    Chao Yong couldn¡¯t help but look straight as soon as the blush fell from his head.

    On weekdays, Hu Sanniang doesn't like red makeup and prefers to be armed, and rarely paints her eyebrows. Today, she has carefully sculpted her face. She wears eight-treasure purple gold pendants in her ears, silver bracelets and gold trowels on her hands. She has a bun on the back and a bun on the front.  She has straight eyebrows, red and green silk flowers, jade hairpins, and white fungus on her temples, and red flowers, green leaves, and peonies are inserted diagonally on her temples. She is a charming beauty.

    Ruan Xiaoqi stared at Hu Sanniang and shouted, "Does Grandpa Hu have two daughters?"

    Lin Chong patted Ruan Xiaoqi and said with a smile: "Stop making trouble, let them eat dumplings and heart-to-heart wine. So brother Layong can go have wine with us."

    Ruan Xiaoqi thought it was enough after fussing for a while, and shouted: "Bring the dumplings quickly."

    "All Americans" were already prepared and brought over red plates.

    Chao Yong looked at the bowl, which was obviously freshly made raw dumplings, and he could only swallow them whole one by one with Hu Sanniang.

    Everyone was still shouting and asking: "Are you alive or not?"

    Hu Sanniang naturally knew that they were not asking whether the dumplings would give birth, but whether they would have children after getting married. Although her face was red with shame, in order to seek good luck, she still said crisply: "I will give birth."

    Ruan Xiaoqi said teasingly: "Don't be anxious, you can meet again tonight, I'm still waiting to have a drink with Brother Yong."

    "The American" saw the two eating dumplings, so he handed over a pair of scissors. Chao Yong and Hu Sanniang each cut off a lock of hair and tied it together. Sanniang wrapped it in a silk paris and put it away.

    "The beautiful man" saw that the two of them had finished tying their hair, so he handed over another glass of wine. Chao Yong and Hu Sanniang each drank half a glass, which was a heart-to-heart wine.

    After having a heart-to-heart drink, the "American" said: "The bride needs to change her clothes, let's go out."

    Chao Yong just lay down and was ready to take a rest.

      Ruan Xiaoqi pulled Chao Yong up and said with a smile: "Sanniang, you can't help me change my clothes, so I'm going to have a drink with everyone."

    Chao Yong turned around and gave Hu Sanniang a helpless look, and had no choice but to come to the front hall with everyone.

    Not long after, the wedding banquet was held, and the marriage of the young village leader was naturally the highest standard in Liangshan.  Eight plates, four platters, eight small bowls, eight medium bowls, and eight large bowls.  Since there are so many dishes, we can only drop in and out.  The fish can only be eaten on one side and cannot be turned over.

    During the banquet, Chao Yong naturally had to sit across the table to toast. Under the coaxing of Ruan Xiaoqi and others, Chao Yong could only change the prepared wine cup into a bowl.

    Although most of the drinks in the Northern Song Dynasty were in the teens, after dozens of bowls, Chao Yong felt dizzy and felt that the people in front of him were shaking.

    Seeing that her son was staggering when walking, Mrs. He couldn't help but feel distressed and asked Lin Chong to help Chao Yong into the bridal chamber.

    Hu Sanniang was having dinner in her new house. When she saw Chao Yong being helped in, she quickly stepped forward to help.

    Chao Yong looked at Hu Sanniang, who was swaying from side to side in front of him, and said with a naive smile: "Sanniang, I'm fine, but I just ate a few more bowls with Xiao Qi and the others."

    Hu Sanniang saw that Chao Yong's face was completely different from usual dullness, and she couldn't help but feel distressed and said: "Why have you eaten so much? Come to bed and have a rest."

    Chao Yong was put on the bed by Lin Chong and Hu Sanniang. He watched Lin Chong go out and fell asleep without saying a few words to Hu Sanniang.

    I don¡¯t know how long it took, but Chao Yong woke up and looked at the window. The sun seemed to be setting in the west. Hu Sanniang was sitting at the table pounding wheat straw with a pair of red chopsticks.

    Chao Yong originally wanted to quietly get out of bed to tease Hu Sanniang, but he didn't expect that Hu Sanniang was very smart. As soon as Chao Yong made a move, he heard it. He turned around to see Chao Yong getting up and said hurriedly: "Is the officer feeling better? Don't get up, I will  Pour you some tea."

    "OK."

    Chao Yong looked at Sanniang, who was suddenly as gentle as water, and wondered for a while whether women in ancient times would become good wives and mothers after getting married.  No wonder so many emperors and generals in history dared to turn the wives and daughters of their enemies into their bedfellows without worrying about losing their lives in a daze.

    In Water Margin, Wang Yingming knew that the whole family of Hujiazhuang was killed by Li Kui, but he still dared to marry Hu Sanniang.

    Chao Yong took the tea from Hu Sanniang and said with a smile, "What were you doing just now?"

    Hu Sanniang said with a smile: "I'm stuffing my pillow, and the wheat straw is a bit irritating, so I'll crush it."

    Chao Yong looked at the wheat straw that was as thick as a finger. Thinking about sleeping on it at night, he felt a headache. He shook his head and said, "It would be too uncomfortable to put this wheat straw in the pillow. Let's sleep on another pillow."

    Hu Sanniang said: "This has been a custom for many years. How can we change it? I just pound some wheat straw."

    Seeing Hu Sanniang¡¯s persistence, Chao Yong had no choice but to help Hu Sanniang mash the wheat straw.

    Seeing that the wheat straw was pounded, Hu Sanniang took out the pillowcase she had prepared, put a copper coin in each corner, and then started filling it with wheat straw and red dates.  After filling it out, I took my needle and thread and started to seal it.

    Chao Yong watched Hu Sanniang sewing clumsily and seriously, and couldn't help but be stunned. This person was completely different from the heroic Hu Sanniang he knew.
