Although there are only a few people in Lao Wangtou's home, there are still many relatives, friends, and neighbors.
In addition, Yu Yan is well-known in this small town. When people in the town heard that Yu Yan was finally getting married, they all rushed over to help!
In fact, under the guise of helping, I came over to see what the new official looked like.
I heard that he is a foreigner, but I don’t know how ferocious he looks. Otherwise, how could he dare to marry such an ugly creature like her!
But the result was a big disappointment for those who were watching the show, because this foreigner looked relatively handsome, but he looked too weak.
The two stood together and formed a strong contrast, which made countless people who saw the joke cry out as a pity.
So word spread, and everyone in the town knew that Yu Yan, the ugliest woman in the town, had found a handsome husband!
This made the two-story building bustling and noisy.
Liangchen was also dizzy with the commotion of people coming and going to "help".
...
On the third day, all preparations were completed and the ceremony officially began.
Liangchen was sent to the place where Lao Litou found him early in the morning.
According to the custom here, foreigners who want to marry here need to start from their hometown and then arrive at the woman's home before Chen time.
Since he didn't know where he came from, he had to regard the place where he was found as his hometown, and was accompanied by Lao Li Tou and two young men.
Lao Wangtou hired four black-hoofed goats, otherwise he might not have been able to reach the destination and would have died of exhaustion on the way.
Goats run like flying, red clothes dance lightly on good days.
The bridal chamber should have been a day for men to be high-spirited, but at this moment, he was sitting on the black-hoofed goat with no joy or sadness.
A few people rushed to the town in a short time.
At the gate of the yard, several people got off the sheep and walked forward.
As soon as he crossed the gate, a man next to him handed him a bow and arrow, signaling Liangchen to shoot out the door.
Along the way, Lao Wangtou had already explained all the rules here. He knew that this was the custom of this town.
When the groom enters the door, he needs to shoot three arrows at the place where the sheep are laid outside, which means to drive away the demons and ghosts following the groom and all bad luck.
Liangchen picked up his bow and arrow and shot three arrows crookedly.
Everyone cheered in unison!
Entering the bride's attic at a good time, she saw Yu Yan sitting on the bed wearing a big red gold magpie robe and a golden crown of hundreds of birds facing phoenixes, covered with a square red cloth.
At the signal of the emcee next to him, he walked forward, held Yu Yan's hand, and walked slowly downstairs.
The crowd formed a circle downstairs, and an offering table was placed in the middle. An unknown animal head as big as a millstone was placed on the table. Next to the animal head were three glasses of strong wine and a sharp knife.
A chair was placed next to the altar table, and Lao Wangtou was sitting there.
Standing in front of the chair was an old priest, wearing a short robe made of colorful cloth ribbons, a linen skirt underneath, and bare feet.
The face of the priest was painted with various colors of oil paint, making it difficult to see his appearance. He was mumbling words that Liangchen could not understand, and was dancing in front of the altar table.
Seeing the two people walking into the courtyard, the priest stopped and pointed at the two futons in front of the altar table, asking them to kneel down.
Then he held a sharp knife in one hand and cut off pieces of meat from the animal's head, throwing them into the air, and then scattered the strong wine in the cup on the ground in the courtyard.
This process is to pray to the sun god to bless the newlyweds to have a happy family and grow old together.
After finishing, Liangchen and Yuyan kowtowed three times to the altar table.
"Sprinkle golden flowers!" someone shouted.
I saw several women walking out from the side, scattering small flowers made of gold foil in their hands to the crowd for the guests to compete for.
After all the procedures were completed, it was already noon when the two of them were sent to the bridal chamber.
"Haha, my little girl is having a big celebration today, and everyone is not allowed to leave!
Bring out the King of Bacteria wine from the cellar and drink it all! "
Lao Wangtou arranged for a banquet to be held in the courtyard to entertain the guests, smiling from ear to ear.
The room upstairs was exactly the opposite of the hustle and bustle outside. The two of them sat on the edge of the bed and looked at each other in silence. The scene was quiet and awkward.
Finally, Yu Yan spoke up to break the scene.
"I didn't expect that I actually got married!" Yu Yan said as if he didn't believe it.
"Yes, things are unpredictable." Liangchen continued.
"Alas, you don't understand how I feel." Yu Yan sighed.
"Everyone has their own bitterness." Liangchen thought that this girl was so ugly and had such a weird temper. If she hadn't been a foreigner and ended up here, it would have been difficult for her to get married in her life!
"Even if you don't want to do anything, at least take off my hijab." Yu Yan said.
"Uh." Liangchen thought about it, she couldn't let her reveal it herself.
He reached out and uncovered the red cloth on Yu Yan's head.
There seemed to be a few tears on his pockmarked face.
"Don't worry. Although you and I will be called husband and wife from now on, we don't interfere with each other. You don't have to worry about what I do. If you want to leave, you don't have to report to me." Yu Yan seemed to understand Liangchen's thoughts. He spoke.
"That's very good. Thank you girl for your kindness!" Liangchen said.
Then Yu Yan seemed to lose interest in talking and fell silent. Liang Chen didn't know what to say. The two of them just sat there, thinking about their own thoughts.
...
Half a year later.
Liangchen gradually got used to this ordinary and comfortable life.
After these few months of cultivation, coupled with Lao Li Tou's conditioning, he can now move freely.
It’s just that all the magic power is lost, and the storage bag cannot be opened. Of course it is opened. Without the magic power, I don’t know what to do.
Liangchen began to try meditation practice, but because many meridians in his body could not be fully recovered, the movement of his magic power was blocked, and he could hardly condense any spiritual power.
And the green liquid in Dantian still nourishes the dry body day and night.
So he simply didn't think about anything and An Ran was in front of his new uncle.
As she said, Yu Yan didn't force him to do anything. He was still the same, running out every two days, and Liangchen was happy to do so.
He also often wandered around the town. At first, Lao Wangtou was worried that he would escape and would not let him go far.
He also said hello to many acquaintances in the town. If he found any intention to leave, he would immediately stop him or summon him himself.
Later, after asking around, I found that this new uncle seemed to really not want to leave.
I wandered around the town all day long, asking here and there, and often went to the blacksmith shop at the west end of the town. I seemed very interested in forging weapons.
That day, when Liangchen came back from the blacksmith shop, Lao Wangtou called him.
"Chen'er, how is your recovery?"
"Thanks to your great blessing, uncle, the injury has almost recovered."
Although Liangchen didn't think of him as his father-in-law from the bottom of his heart, he was always the one who saved his life, so he was still very grateful to him and called him uncle after they got married.
"It's good to have recovered! I see you go out a lot these days, but want to learn some skills?" Lao Wangtou said.
"I'm just busy at home and want to go out and have a look." Liangchen replied.
"I heard from Old Li Tou that you often stay at the Zhenxi Blacksmith Shop for half a day. Do you want to learn how to make weapons?" Old Wang Tou said with a smile.
"My child is somewhat interested." Liangchen replied.
"With your current body, the method of forging iron and making weapons is not suitable for you at all. If you really want to learn some skills, why not learn the art of winemaking from me!" Old Wangtou smiled and took out a wine gourd.
