If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, no one would believe that a man who looked like the God of War Guan Yu could actually have such magical fingering skills. A tall and dignified man of nine feet could actually make needlework with flying needles, which was comparable to that of a girl with ten slender fingers, and even better than many seamstresses. It’s going to be awesome!
The needle and thread swam back and forth on the red fabric like a fish. Unknowingly, an elegant wedding dress had been sewn.
When Guan Wenchang handed the brand new wedding dress to the girl in Tsing Yi, the girl in Tsing Yi was still in a daze, as if she couldn't believe that her wedding dress had been made.
Seeing this, Qin'er smiled sweetly, went over and patted her and said, "Girl, your wedding dress is ready. Do you think it's suitable?"
After Qin'er patted it, the girl in green clothes seemed to wake up from a dream. She eagerly took the wedding dress, looked left and right, and said with great surprise: "Wow? It's done so quickly? Oh, it's so beautiful, I'm so happy I like it!”
He hurriedly took out five taels of silver, stuffed it into Guan Wenchang and said, "Brother Guan, the clothes you made are so beautiful. I will definitely look even more beautiful when I wear them on my wedding day. Thank you!"
At this time, the crowd was excited. Everyone said that the bridal dress was so beautiful. Many people applauded Guan Wenchang's craftsmanship. Some people shouted in succession: "Brother Guan, please help me tailor a dress. I will help you." Two taels of silver!"
Someone said: "You only pay two taels of silver for such ingenious craftsmanship? The second master is in trouble because of the cold, I will pay ten taels of silver!"
"I'll give you fifteen taels of silver. Brother Guan, please help me sew a big cloak!"...
Seeing that people were so enthusiastic, they all asked Guan Wenchang to make clothes for them. Many people even went to tailor shops to buy cloth and asked Guan Wenchang to help them tailor their clothes.
Looking at his shabby clothes, Zhang Feide rolled his eyes, and joined in the fun, saying loudly: "Oh, second brother, since you have such skills, you see, my clothes are also torn, brother, why not Can you sew a set of clothes for me too? Hehe."
Seeing this, Xue Wuhen stopped him and said, "Brother Zhang, we are together every day. If you want new clothes, when will you not be able to sew them?"
Qin'er glared at Zhang Feide and said, "That's right, now is the time for your second brother to show off his skills and make money. Don't waste time and block your second brother's way of making money!"
"Oh?...This is it too!"
Zhang Feide scratched his head and said sheepishly: "Well, when we get back to the inn, my second brother can help me tailor my clothes when he is free? Hehe, I'll buy the fabric first!"
With that said, he walked to the center of the street and went to the fabric store to buy cloth.
Guan Wenchang was indeed a skillful tailor. By evening, he had made dozens of pieces of clothing, satisfying twenty or thirty people.
After a long time, he earned more than one hundred taels of silver. Guan Wen was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.
However, it also made him very tired. His hands were flying for most of the day, and he kept threading needles and threads, which made his eyes dazzled.
The next day, Guan Wenchang still went to the street to cut clothes for others. With his superb craftsmanship, he earned more than two hundred taels of silver, and he had no worries anymore.
Each of them, depending on their abilities, had earned some money and had no worries about food and clothing. Zhang Feide then thought of the sworn friendship again.
After breakfast that day, seeing Guan Wenchang going to the street to make clothes for others again, Zhang Feide stopped him and said, "Brother, don't be a tailor. We have more important things to do!"
Guan Wen was stunned for a moment and said: "Third brother, is there anything more important than making money?"
Zhang Feide sighed and said helplessly: "Second brother, in this world, it is impossible to live without money, but we can't only have money and silver in our minds? We have said that the Taoyuan three are sworn brothers, have you forgotten?"
Oops, this guy brings this up again!
Guan Wenchang said with a helpless smile: "But there is no Taoyuan here? How can we sworn sworn friends? The sworn vows are very solemn. Don't you have to be in Taoyuan to do so?"
Xue Wuhen also smiled and said: "Yes, Brother Zhang, there is only a plum orchard behind this inn, there are no peach blossoms, and there is no peach orchard. Is this possible?"
Zhang Feide laughed and said: "Don't worry, I went shopping outside Fuzhou yesterday and finally found a peach orchard for me. The peach blossoms are in full bloom!
Moreover, it is an unowned peach garden. You can enter it at will without spending any money, second brother! "
Because he knew that Guan Wenchang was relatively stingy and not as generous as Xue Wuhen and Qin'er, he specially reminded Guan Wenchang that there was no need to spend money to enter this peach garden, so that Guan Wenchang would not worry about money.
Sure enough, when Guan Wenchang heard that there was no need to spend money, he happily said: "Okay, since there is no need to spend money, let's just go and have fun..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhang Feide's face sank and he said unhappily: "Hey, second brother, what are you talking about? Why are you just having fun? We are going to do serious things and hold a grand Taoyuan marriage ceremony. How can we be childish? ?”
"Hey, this guy is here again, and he really takes sworn vows seriously!" Guan Wen was speechless for a long time, so he had to let him go.
At that moment, the four of them followed Zhang Feide to the street and bought incense, candles, three pig heads and other sacrifices, then rode out of Fuzhou City with their horses and whips raised.
Originally, Xue Wuhen said that just buying a few sticks of incense would be enough, but Zhang Feide said no. Such a big deal as the marriage of the three Taoyuan brothers would be remembered for eternity in the future, so it should be more grand.
According to Zhang Feide, some respected old men should be invited to preside over the sworn relationship. However, they were just here for the first time and were just passing by. Apart from the inn's clerk, they didn't know anyone. How could they know who the respected people were? So forget it.
Arriving more than twenty miles outside Fuzhou City, I saw a bright purple and red area in front of me, and the area for dozens of miles was filled with graceful peach trees.
At this time, the flowers are in full bloom, peach blossoms are fluttering in the wind, and thousands of flowers are swaying, smiling in the spring breeze.
"Ah, what beautiful peach blossoms, what a big peach orchard!"
When Qin'er saw the peach blossom forest in front of her, she danced for joy, burst into laughter, and ran over happily, leaping into the sea of flowers, holding peach blossoms in her hands, laughing heartily, like an innocent girl.
Suddenly seeing the colorful peach blossom forest, it was like being in a sea of flowers. The breath of spring hit my face, making people instantly feel happy and unconsciously singing along with the birds in the forest.
Xue Wuhen couldn't resist the temptation of spring, so she and Guan Zhang rode into the peach blossom forest.
As if there was a mysterious force pulling them, Xueguan, Zhang and the others went straight to the center of the peach garden.
Where the fragrance of flowers is strongest, a strange-shaped boulder can be seen standing there proudly, as majestic as a mountain.
The boulder has mottled lines, four of which are particularly deep, as if five huge fingers are tightly held together, like a giant's iron fist, giving people a shocking feeling of huge power.
Looking at the iron-fist-like boulder, a sense of sacredness arose spontaneously. Xueguan, Zhang and the other three dismounted in unison and said in unison:
"It's him, let's sworn sworn friends here!"
"Fujian, Fuzhou, the land of happiness!"
Xue Wuhen looked at the boulder with sharp eyes and said solemnly: "The fist symbolizes strength, and unity is strength. Today, the three of us are sworn brothers and become one body. Just like a clenched fist, we will be more powerful." Power is invincible!"
Guan and Zhang also said excitedly: "Yes, today we in Taoyuan will be more united and stronger after we have become sworn brothers. We will be invincible and create our own glory!"
After that, Xueguan, Zhang and the others took out the incense and candle sacrifices and placed them in front of the iron-fist-like boulder. After lighting the incense and candles and inserting them, the three of them knelt down together and said in unison:
"The sky is above, and the loess is a mirror. Today, the three of us have become sworn brothers in the peach garden. We are sworn brothers who depend on each other for life and death. We do not wish to die in the same year, month and day on the same day, but we hope to die in the same year, month and day. From now on, we will share weal and woe, share joys and sorrows, if not This oath will be punished by heaven and earth!"
After saying this, they bowed three times and kowtowed to heaven and earth, then stood up, embraced each other, laughed, and sang loudly, with great pride.
After a while, Guan and Zhang looked at each other, smiled, and kneeled down to Xue Wuhen in unison: "Guan Wenchang and Zhang Feide meet my eldest brother!"
Xue Wuhen was startled and hurriedly stopped him: "You two, no!"
Zhang Feide said in a serious voice: "Brother, why not? Among the three of us, your martial arts is the most powerful. The two of us together are no match for you. If you don't become the eldest brother, who will be the eldest brother?"
Guan Wenchang also said: "Yes, brother Wuhen, you are not only very powerful in martial arts, but you have also saved us many times. My third brother and I have both been blessed by you and are able to survive until now, so you are the most suitable as the eldest brother!"
"Huh? This..."
After thinking for a while, Xue Wuhen said plausibly: "Listen to me, you two, although your current martial arts skills are not as good as mine, you have unique skills and each have your own skills.
For example, whether it's Brother Zhang's pig-killing skills or Brother Guan's flying needle threading skills, both can be called unique.
and I? Apart from his martial arts skills, how can he be your eldest brother? Besides, you are all older than me, so it’s even more difficult for me to be your eldest brother! "
Afraid that they would be recalcitrant, he then added: "Do you two still remember? Back then, Liu, Guan, and Zhang Taoyuan were sworn brothers. Guan and Zhang were both more powerful in martial arts than Liu Bei, but they still regarded Liu Bei as their eldest brother. Why?
Because Liu Bei is the oldest, Liu Bei is the eldest brother; Guan Yu is the second brother, and Zhang Fei is the third brother! "
Guan and Zhang saw that what he said was reasonable and that he refused to be the eldest brother, so they had no choice but to nod and said: "Okay, we'll do what you want, whoever is the oldest will be the eldest brother!"
Zhang Feide thought to himself, among the three of us, it seems that Guan Wenchang is the oldest. He should be the oldest. It seems that the second brother is going to be the eldest brother! And Xue Wuhen seems to be the youngest. It seems that he can only be the third child and take my third brother's position.
Xue Wuhen also thought so, so he took the lead in announcing his birth date, saying: "Two eldest brothers, the younger brother was born on the fifth day of spring in the third year of Tianyou, which is the fifth day of the Lunar New Year.
According to my mother, although it was spring when I was born, the snowflakes were still fluttering and falling silently to the ground, so she named me Xue Wuhen. I wonder when my two brothers were born? To celebrate my brother's birthday. "
