"By the words of the empress Jingci, the great virtuous man:
I heard that Mrs. Qin, the daughter of the repairman of the Ministry of Industry, has a gentle face, a light body, graceful and quiet, a cautious nature, gentle and honest, and an outstanding appearance.
We have had a good time with Uncle Zhenwu for a long time. Today, Uncle Zhenwu is working hard for the country and has missed the good time. He specially chooses October 20 to get married. All the etiquette will be jointly handled by the Ministry of Rites and Qin Tian Jianzheng! "
The day after Jia Hui received the reward, two marriage edicts were also issued from the palace.
Seeing that Jia Hui did what he said in the letter, Qin Keqing's grudge disappeared.
She also knew that men had three wives and four concubines. As long as they did not spoil their concubines and destroy their wives, Qin Keqing would not be dissatisfied.
This time, the grudge was just because Jia Hui had brought his concubine into the house before he had even passed the door.
Now that she saw that Jia Hui had given herself such dignity, she was deeply moved.
It was already October 8th, and the wedding would be consummated in more than ten days. Qin Keqing felt shy when she thought of this.
Soon, the Ministry of Rites, the Zongren Mansion, and the Qintian Supervisor sent people to the Jia and Qin families to start preparing for the wedding.
The two houses had already prepared things for their wedding. Now that the emperor has granted the marriage, it is just a matter of adding some other things and some necessary etiquette.
Although there was a bit of a rush, the preparations were completed quickly.
During this period, except for the occasional trip to the military show camp to deal with the matter of a branch of the Jia family joining the army, Jia Hui spent the rest of his time at home being shouted around and taught etiquette by officials from the Ministry of Rites.
These days, Jia Hui feels only one word, annoying!
There were too many etiquettes, which made Jia Hui feel unnecessary. However, as he followed the local customs, Jia Hui had to be like a puppet, controlled by the people of the Ministry of Rites.
Now the entire Rongguo Mansion is decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and everyone is smiling.
Not even Mrs. Wang dared to trip up Jia Hui at this time.
"Third brother, third brother, my sister-in-law gave us a lot of gifts. We come here to thank you for coming!"
In Zhengwu Courtyard, Jia Hui had just taken some time off when he heard Xichun's voice coming from outside.
Not long after, all the Miharu sisters came to the Zhengwu Hall.
"It turns out that three sisters are here. You should thank your sister-in-law for the things you gave her!"
"My sister-in-law hasn't come in yet, so she wants to thank her third brother first!"
Now Jia Hui is also taking some time off from her busy schedule to chat with her three younger sisters.
Since Jia Hui's arrival, their lives have become much easier.
In particular, Jia Hui not only gave them small gifts from time to time, but also supported them, so the relationship between the three of them and Jia Hui had become closer than Baoyu at this time.
It's a pity that Jia Hui just chatted with them for a few words before she was called away by Wang Xifeng.
Looks like I'm going to be busy again.
Soon, October 20th came quietly.
Outside the Rongguo Mansion, the entire Ningrong Street was blocked by horse-drawn carriages. If the entire Jia family hadn't been dispatched, and Jia Rong led people from the Army and Horses Department to guide them, the wedding would have been blocked.
"Congratulations to Uncle Zhenwu on your wedding!"
"congratulations!"
"Hou Shibo, please come in!"
"Shi Shibo, please come in!"
Standing outside the door, Jia Hui felt that her waist was aching.
Even if Jia Hui decided to only receive members of the Jia family, there were still too many people to receive.
Fortunately, the female family members were arranged in the East Mansion, otherwise the gate of Rongguo Mansion would have been trampled to pieces!
"Brother Hui, you are finally getting married, congratulations!"
"Brother Qi is so reckless, don't be rude to Uncle Zhenwu!"
Jia Hui turned around and saw that Niu Qi and Niu Jizong were coming, and Jia Hui hurriedly greeted them.
"I've met Niu Shibo! Brother Qi and I joined the army in Northern Xinjiang together, so we don't need to treat him with state courtesy. Besides, today is my nephew's wedding. All the people here are relatives and old relatives. Our two families are close relatives, so we don't need to see him too much. Got it!"
"That's right! Father, you are too serious!"
After exchanging a few words with the two, Niu Jizong also knew that Jia Hui was busy, so he pulled Niu Qi towards the house.
"Third brother, it's time to pick up the bride!"
Not long after, Jia Lian came over and replaced Jia Hui to greet the guests with Jia Zheng.
Jia Hui also went to the back hall to change into auspicious clothes, and went to Rongqing Hall to meet Jia She.
After listening to Jia She's emotionless admonishment, Jia Hui said goodbye to Jia She and led others towards the Qin Mansion.
At this moment, the inner courtyard of the Qin Mansion has already been occupied by the wives of the clan and the nuns from the palace.
Qin Ye couldn't get into Qin Keqing's side at all.
In the front yard were members of the Qin family, waiting for Jia Hui to come to welcome the bride.
"Come on, come on, uncle is here!"
Soon, the people from the Qin Mansion saw Jia Hui's wedding team. After shouting excitedly, they quickly closed the door.
Jia Hui looked at the closed door and knew that he was preparing to accept a test.
Fortunately, he had already prepared the sword catcher. After exchanging a few poems, everyone in the Qin family did not dare to make it too difficult for the uncle Jia Hui, so they opened the door.
"Hahaha! Reward!"
Entering the house, a group of descendants from the founding line were opening the way. Jia Hui also had people shower red envelopes and had fun with everyone.
Entering the inner courtyard, under the guidance of the Ministry of Rites, Jia Hui and the Qin family's wedding master came to the main hall in the backyard.
Not long after, Qin Keqing also came to the hall wearing a phoenix crown and harem, and paid homage to Qin Ye in the hall with Jia Hui.
Seeing that his daughter finally married a noble son-in-law, he could rest assured in the future.
"My son is getting married today. He should keep in mind the virtues of a woman! She must serve her husband and honor her parents-in-law, and never slack off for a day! She must manage the affairs of the family and advise her husband..."
After a sincere admonishment, Qin Zhong carried Qin Keqing on his back and got into the sedan chair that he had been waiting for for a long time.
After a period of tedious etiquette, Jia Hui finally took Huaqiao on the return journey.
In the city of Shenjing, because of Jia Hui's wedding, many people stopped what they were doing and began to stand on the street corner to watch.
Because it was a gift marriage, Qin Keqing's dowry cost a lot. Although it was not as good as Shili Hongzhuang, it was a rare gift from the palace.
There were soldiers and horses clearing the way along the way, and Jia Hui soon arrived at Ningrong Street and entered the Rongguo Mansion.
Surrounded by a group of people, Qin Keqing was placed in the bridal chamber of Zhengwuyuan!
"Did you see it? Did you see it?"
As soon as Xichun left Zhengwuyuan, he was pulled aside by Yingchun and Tanchun.
"well!"
"You can't squeeze in at all!"
Thinking of the house full of ladies of the clan's mansion, Xichun's face shrank and she said helplessly.
Not to mention her, even Mrs. Wang, Wang Xifeng and others didn't dare to step forward to squeeze in when they looked at the concubines wearing imperial robes.
After welcoming Qin Keqing, Jia Hui came to the front yard again and greeted the guests.
"Uncle, Prince Yizhong is here, saying he is here to congratulate uncle on his wedding!"
As soon as he arrived in the front yard, Wang Min gave Jia Hui a head-on blow.
"This... this person must be a bad guy!"
Jia Hui couldn't believe his ears. I, a count in charge of the army, am getting married, and you, a prince, come to congratulate me. Which prince can do such a thing?
