Chapter 38
It was a pair of red phoenix-like sedan chairs. All the strong men wearing ancient sedan chairmen's clothes took relatively neat steps and sent the newcomer to the big house.
The sedan chair is made of pure wood and painted with red paint. The curtains are covered with phoenixes and phoenixes, intertwined with each other and are lifelike.
Next to the sedan chair, there were a few middle-aged and old women who looked like matchmakers. They were also wearing gorgeous Song gowns, with white skin as white as blood, bright cheeks and a smile.
"The jewelry box represents sincerity. The villagers and elders can take a look. This is the gift given to the bride by the groom's house." A matchmaker took his relatives and walked in front, showing the jewelry to the pedestrians openly.
They are all retro jewelry, earrings, bracelets, and necklaces. It can be seen that the man is very attentive.
On the other hand, the matchmaker took out a long painting and pulled it apart halfway. The person in the painting seemed to be the bride painted in colorful ink, with a decent and elegant manner.
Even though he didn't say anything, the matchmaker's expression of picking up his relatives had already told the people watching on the street: Our bride is a symbolic beauty.
A man and a man are rich and beautiful.
Made in heaven and earth!
It is indeed rare to have a largely restored ancient wedding customs in this day and age.
Especially the pompous event held by these two families, the whole town watched over, looking at the colorful silks, scarves, red belts, listening to the suona, gongs, drums, and firecrackers along the way, many passers-by couldn't help but envy them.
"The groom is so beautiful. Is there such a beautiful girl in Nanhe Town? If so, I would be willing to marry her!" said a man wearing a thick sweatshirt, and his eyes kept looking into the woman's sedan chair, as if he wanted to see the bride's beauty.
"Come on, can you afford those gold and silver brides? I guess you can't afford even a pure wooden sedan."
As the sedan chair slowly entered the house, the outside of the house was surrounded by people. Not to mention that such a grand retro wedding was never seen in this small place in Nanhe Town, it probably didn't exist in a big city outside, which really made countless people envious.
"Today's wedding day for my son Pang Dongxu." The middle-aged man wearing a white coat and a red hood said loudly.
"Today's wedding day for my daughter Fu Qing." The bride's father also said loudly.
"Our Pang family and Fu family have become in-laws today. The happy events of the parents and villagers should be shared with everyone. There is also a flowing mat in the backyard, so everyone can go over from the side and have fun together!" The two fathers said almost at the same time.
There were many people watching the fun. It was noon and many people had not yet gone home for lunch. I heard that there were even a flowing table for passers-by in the backyard. Many people congratulated the two old fathers and then entered the backyard.
The red sedan chair has been carried to the front hall, and the spacious hall is also decorated with many embroidery, silk and candles, filling the entire hall with a very beautiful and festive atmosphere.
"Why haven't you invited the bride and groom to come out?" Someone has started to cheer.
"What do you know? This is the rule of a wealthy family. The bride and groom even have to come out to thank the guests after they have enough food and drink. During this process, the bride and groom have to sit in the sedan chair." said a woman who looked like a matchmaker.
"So that's it, hehe, I'm a vulgar man. I just want to respect the groom, and I can actually marry such a beautiful wife!" the man said with a smile.
"The man is not bad either. He is talented and handsome. He is said to be doing business overseas and is engaged in antique business. He is said to have a very high education and is a very young Confucian businessman."
"Actually, the Pang family and the Fu family are the two most wealthy families in our town. They specially found the nine masters to calculate the birth dates and horoscopes for the groom and the bride. Not to mention that they are quite good, they even went to Yue Lao Temple to ask for a signature, and they got a one-year sign-up!"
"Did you notice when you came in through the side door just now? The two families are actually separated by a courtyard wall, with a courtyard road in the middle. There are two pairs of windows looking at each other on the courtyard road wall. The big camphor trees planted by the two families have branches that pass through the wall and window at the same time, and they are intertwined and turned into a small green field. Do you know what this means?" An old man who seemed to know Feng Shui very well said with a smile.
Everyone pricked up their ears and listened.
Most of the backyards are passers-by, and they are not particularly familiar with the situation of these two families. They have rarely seen such weddings. They can sit in and eat and drink for free. Of course, they have to listen to other people’s stories.
"This is called a branch. Think about it, it is obviously a family of two families, but the branches of the two camphor trees pass through the walls and windows and intertwined with each other. Isn't it necessary for the two families to be combined on the top? Isn't this the best blessing to the bride and groom?" The old Feng Shui pointed to the sky and said mysteriously and solemnly.
Others were surprised that someone actually went to see the two camphor trees, and the result was indeed as the Feng Shui old man said.
"A good family, a man and a beautiful woman, with the matchmaker of the old man and God's blessings, it's so enviable! I took my boyfriend home last year, let alone received God's blessings, even my dog didn't like him. The whole family was very opposed. Alas... people compare themselves to others, it's so annoying!" said a young girl dressed in fancy clothes.
"Isn't that true? There is a second fool living next door to me. How can such a beautiful lady be like this?"
"Who the hell do you call me?!"
"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't expect you to be here too, Brother Tie."
...
After drinking and eating, everyone was quite satisfied, and there was no more enjoyable eating than this time.
Seeing that many people were beginning to leave, the happy family naturally began to let the bride and groom come to thank him.
"Everyone, the bride and groom are here, please give me the warmest welcome!" said a wedding girl.
At this time, two red sedan chairs were carried over again, and they were still those big and thick men.
While everyone was puzzled, they couldn't help but sigh that the rich family had many rules and decided not to go to the ground.
At the same time, the man's parents and the woman's parents walked towards the backyard.
"According to the rules, we have to thank all the villagers and elders first. Only those who know each other but do not know each other can respect their relatives and friends. I am really grateful for everyone's arrival. Are you satisfied with the meal?" Master Pang asked with a smile, and raised his glass to toast everyone.
After eating someone else's, the etiquette will definitely come. Everyone stood up and gave the huge rich man a drink.
(Sorry, there are too many things on hand recently, and the updates in the past two days are a bit slackened. In addition, Brother Lu is in a mess, and he can only update so much. I hope to understand that after the work is done, he will resume normal updates as soon as possible. After all, amateurs cannot afford to be injured.)
