After sitting for a while, the second wife and the third wife also had nails growing on their buttocks. It happened that the Princess of Zhenbei ordered someone to come over and report that guests were coming one after another, and some of them were too busy, so she asked the second wife and the third wife to help entertain the guests.
When the two of them heard this, they stood up impatiently, making the old lady's face turn purple with anger.
Outside, the team welcoming the bride has set off at the auspicious time.
Leban was in front, followed by the heroic attendants carefully selected from the factory guards and the royal guards. They all wore the same crimson, purple, and gold-knotted fairy robes. They rode on horses and straddled swords. They held vases, candles, and incense balls. , saros, toiletries, makeup boxes, photo stands, clothing boxes, knots, parasols, chairs and other various objects.
Behind the groomsmen were the maids selected from the Jiaofang Division, all riding horses and singing auspicious songs with the band.
Further behind, there was Qin Zeng, dressed in the groom's official attire, riding on a horse to greet him personally.
Lei Ye, Song Yang, Chen Yan and his second brother were the groomsmen. They were also dressed in red robes and followed Qin Zeng from left to right. This long welcoming procession of handsome men and pretty women was really festive and beautiful!
The wedding tent in front of Li's house in Xuandehou Mansion was already brightly lit, and delicacies and wine were prepared. The band entered the wedding tent and played a joyful song. The groom and the maids dismounted one by one, and before Qin Qin could After the increase, the first round of bonuses will be distributed from the door of the house.
This bonus is very worthy of yesterday's dowry. It consists of fifty taels of silver notes. Along with the bonus, there are also baskets of profit money.
The profit money is not the copper coins you usually see when getting married, but a double wedding knot or auspicious knot with a copper coin strung on top and bottom, with a small peanut, pomegranate and other auspicious objects in the middle.
These are all the work of Princess Yuanheng. Her eldest daughter wants to be happy when she gets married!
When Qin Zeng got off his horse, all the men of the Li family stepped forward to greet him. They let him go to the second door with smiles on their faces, but did not follow him in. If you welcome him in person, it is the rule of welcoming him in person. This blocking of the door to urge makeup must withstand the test.
In front of the Moon Gate that leads to the inner courtyard, there are many ladies and grandmothers from all over the country who are watching the excitement. There are also many maids and ladies surrounding the outside.
The person who was blocked from the door was Qin Zeng, who was usually invisible and invisible. Now this god was right in front of him, and he was still being teased. Such a lively event, like the dowry yesterday, was hundreds of years old. Nothing new ever seen.
The moon door of the second door is closed tightly.
Qin Zeng stared at the closed Moon Gate in confusion, not knowing what to do next. Chen Yan hurriedly took out a piece of paper full of words from his arms and handed it to Qin Zeng and whispered: "You must first There is no substitute for calling the door, you have to call the door yourself."
It was also the first time that Qin Zeng was confused. He took the paper, looked down, blinked, and then looked around at the crowd of spectators who were waiting for him to speak out. He took a deep breath and read loudly: "Thieves must be beaten when they come, and guests must be watched when they come." , Report to my sister-in-law and come out to see her."
There was a burst of laughter outside the door.
Behind the door, Song Lingyu was the leader, standing majestically with her hands on her hips, surrounded by a group of excited young ladies, and a group of even more excited little girls outside. When everyone heard Qin Zeng's shouting, they all responded in a very lively manner: " Who is this distinguished guest who cannot be judged, but who can stay at the door at night? Who is this gentleman, who is his talent? Where does he come from with such a bright and upright spirit?"
There are rules for this set of responses. Amidst the laughter of a group of women around him, Qin Zeng felt a little nervous and forced himself to finish this set of words.
Logically speaking, after the "We'll discuss it later" is said inside, it's time to write poems. Who knows that there is no need for poems in the Moon Gate? Song Lingyu made it clear: "We don't want to recite poems or make arguments today. We want to listen to little songs. Groom." Just sing a little tune and open the door!!"
There was loud laughter inside and outside the door, and Qin Zeng's temples jumped three times.
"Sing a little tune?!"
Song Yang, who just came back to work as a trader last night, laughed out loud, surprised and delighted. Whose idea was this? It’s so satisfying!
He was just a makeshift person, and he neither planned to help Qin Zeng write his essays nor help him march in the army. He just came to occupy a position and make Qin Zeng feel embarrassed because he abducted the person he liked. Therefore, when he heard that Qin Zeng had to "sing a song" to pass the test, he laughed harder than anyone else.
Lei Ye couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth. Chen Yan's brows were raised. It looked like the ladies inside were already prepared!
Only Chen Yan's second brother scratched his head and became distressed for Qin Zeng.
Qin Zeng turned around and looked at the four men asking for help.
Song Yang spread his hands, "We men can listen to music and sing it..." He shook his head solemnly, "I don't have the ability!"
Qin Zeng glared at him fiercely and looked at the others.
Chen Yan looked helpless, "Ahem, just sing. You married such a good wife. Yesterday, you spent a full day of dowry. Who in the capital doesn't envy you? It's just a little song, so hurry up and sing!" Even if I open the door, I still have to make up, and it’s getting late.”
Brother Chen was confused: "If it's poetry, I can still think of a way, but this... can't!"
Lei Ye became even more polished and said, "Isn't it right for a wife to have some difficulties when marrying her? Isn't it just a little song to sing? Isn't it hard for you?"
The veins on Qin Zeng's forehead were beating wildly. Are these people definitely here to help him?
Why don't any of your elbows turn toward him?
Qin Zeng took a breath and sighed again, it was really killing him.
Forget it, you have to find a way to get your wife back by yourself, you can't rely on anyone else.
He raised his hand to rub his eyebrows, then put it down again, looking like he couldn't wipe his face or open his mouth.
Just seeing him in such a difficult situation gave the spectators a great deal of satisfaction. Some people began to cheer, "If you really don't know how to sing a song, just sing a lyric! Same thing!"
The people inside the door must have felt that Qin Zeng, who usually neither goes to Goulan nor to the Jiaofang Department, probably couldn’t do it, so he thought the lyrics were passable, so he agreed, "I can sing lyrics! I can sing lyrics too!" "
Qin Zeng breathed a sigh of relief and took a few steps forward.
Seeing that he was about to speak, the music at the gate paused, cheers broke out, and then another round of flower bonuses came out.
Qin Zeng didn't want to spoil the fun and said in a long voice, half chanting and half singing: "The cypress is the Nanshan cypress, and it will be the gate in the future. The gate is always here, and the woman is a temporary visitor."
It means that your daughter cannot stay at home for a long time and not become a monk. This is exactly the sentence in the poem urging makeup.
Everyone's eyebrows were raised high. As expected of Qin Zeng, he had the quick wit to take advantage of this skill of reciting poems and singing them.
Song Yang rolled his eyes. Wasn't this giving him an advantage?
Chen Yan was laughing so hard on the sidelines. Usually they would not dare to breathe when they saw Qin Zeng, but now they could finally laugh at his jokes openly.
Lei Ye looked at the Moon Gate expectantly, hoping that the door would never be opened and it would be best to force Qin Zeng to sing a serious and exquisite tune.
However, the young ladies at the door were actually more anxious than anyone else.
You can't see anything through the door, but it's no better than being able to see Qin Zeng's every move from outside.
As soon as they heard Qin Zeng speak, he didn't even hear a word of what was being sung. Everyone's face turned red with excitement and their eyes lit up. As soon as the singing ended, Song Lingyu pointed at the moon door and shouted: "Are you all ready? Open the door. !」
