After Xipo from both sides supported Xu Wanyi, who was wearing a phoenix crown and a red veil, and put on a big red veil, the relevant people worshipped the "Sedan God" with Heytea and four-color wedding cakes. Eight healthy servants carried the sedan chairs and raised the sedan chairs amid the sound of gongs and drums and firecrackers. Zhang Yanling rode a horse to lead the bride and sent the brides to the Zhang family in a mighty manner.

When the princess of the Dingguo Mansion got married, the dowry was naturally extremely luxurious. In addition to daily necessities such as tables, chairs, benches, shoes, hats, clothes, bedding, mosquito nets, etc., there were naturally many valuable items. In addition to jade Ruyi, gold ingots, gold and silver jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, it even included two horses and four dowry maids. Not counting these, Xu Wanyi's daily utensils in his parents' home, the piano and chess and study rooms, the canary yellow parrots he raised, and even the flowers and plants placed in the house, so he read books, piano notes and albums, all of them were taken away.

There is a saying that marrying a daughter is like a loss of life. Zhang Yanling said that this is like a Japanese raid, and they are all packed and taken away, sweeping away.

Of course, for Zhang Yanling, no matter how much dowry is, it has nothing to do with him. Except for some daily necessities, all dowry items are Xu Wanyi's dowry. The dowry and ownership rights belong to Xu Wanyi. If it is a normal couple, they will naturally have to give them a part to their husbands. But Zhang Yanling is self-aware. With his own relationship with Xu Wanyi, he cannot get these dowry even if he has been in name only from the beginning.

The team and scale of the bride sent out did not disappoint the people. The people were winding around, and the rich dowry made the onlookers stutter and sigh. This is the wealth that most of them could not accumulate in their lives for dozens of lives. Compared with others, it is really frustrating and disappointing. Except for some people who are angry, most people think in their hearts: People have good fate, but we have low fate, so accept their fate.

Halfway through Si, the huge bride-sending team arrived at Jianchang Hou Mansion. With the sound of silk, bamboo, firecrackers, gongs and drums, Xi Po helped the bride get out of the sedan chair. Zhang Yanling was stuffed with a piece of red satin in his hand, and he owed Xu Wanyi to cross the various inexplicable saddles, braziers, jars, jars, and other things placed at the door.

The hall is decorated in a magnificent manner. Queen Zhang actually left the palace and came to Jianchang Hou Mansion early this morning. The Zhang family's parents and elders are no longer there, and the elder sister is a concubine and is a concubine. She cannot take on the role of the elder in terms of identity. Therefore, Queen Zhang obviously acts as the responsibility of the elders.

The newlyweds entered the hall, and Queen Zhang also came out, standing on the upper head and taking charge of marriage with Zhang Heling. On the two Grand Master chairs were placed with a piece of clothing and a hairpin, which represented Zhang Yanling's deceased parents.

The emcee promised auspicious time. While muttering a lot of words and saying auspicious words, he guided the newlyweds to worship the house. He worshiped the heaven and earth, worshiped his parents, and after the couple bowed each other, Xi Po and the maids surrounded the newlyweds and sent them into the bridal chamber. A tedious process finally ended.

But the wedding was just beginning. There were many guests at the door, one of the two housekeepers was responsible for specializing in greeting guests and the other assisted A Xiu to arrange the banquet.

The Zhang family opened a flowing mat today. There were twenty tables in the yard, and there were thirty tables on the hutong venue at the door. The yard was full of serious guests, and the banquets inside and outside the hutong were entertaining ordinary people. Today's rule is that everyone, even if they just say a congratulation, can eat and drink and get a wedding ceremony. This is the so-called grand occasion.

The 50-table tables of water mats were opened, and fifty chefs invited set up dozens of stoves in the side yard. All the maids, mothers and chefs of the Zhang family went together, and seventy or eighty people started to work. They carried water, washed vegetables, chopped vegetables, chopped meat, slaughtered chickens and killed fish. Everyone was busy from noon when the meal started. They kept busy and said that it was dark, and the banquet finally ended. There were still many people who asked about the people who came to fight Qiufeng and didn't get any food, and some beggars and flower girls gathered at the door and refused to go. In the end, A Xiu asked each to send fifty cents and a bag of wedding cakes to send each.

After a day, there was no doubt about the lively show, but everyone was exhausted. Zhang Yanling drank a lot of wine and was drunk. Today, the He Guests were all well-known figures, and the nobles of all the honors and nobles of all sizes came to congratulate. All the people from the Jinyiwei were over a thousand households. There were also many civil servants from the outer court. Of course, several Grand Secretary of the Cabinet and one of the six ministers of the six ministries came, and all the civil servants with low ranks came. The purpose of their coming was to build relationships and mess with each other. The important officials of the outer court showed their backbone. Even if the two great honors and nobles were married, they did not buy it.

The banquet dispersed and the yard finally became quiet. Zhang Yanling sat on the chair with her legs raised, and A Xiu sat next to her drinking tea. Ma Quanhuang Si and others were counting the gifts and gifts. This was the moment Zhang Yanling was looking forward to most. The wedding cost was huge, and the banquet staff and other expenses cost more than 20,000 taels of silver. The spending of Zhang Yanling really hurts. Zhang Yanling hopes to make some compensation in terms of the gifts.

However, the result of the inventory was disappointing. The gift money received less than 8,000 taels of silver, and not many other jewelry and jewelry. However, there were many valuable things such as cloth decorations, calligraphy and painting. It was estimated that the gift money would not exceed 10,000 taels.

In fact, so much gift money is not small, but Zhang Yanling's expectations are too high. He thought that this wedding would cost 8,000 taels of silver. But in fact, most people are not rich families. In addition to the large amount of gift money in the Xu Qi family, some small officials actually live very difficult. For example, fourth-rank officials like Xu Gao have low salaries and their lives are also very shabby. Not every official position is fat and can make money, and not every official can get money beyond his salary.

In addition to the disappointment of the gift, what Zhang Yanling is most worried about today is that his elder brother-in-law did not come. Originally, Zhang Yanling thought that the emperor would definitely come to support him today, which would be his greatest honor. However, the emperor did not appear from beginning to end, and just asked Empress Zhang to congratulate him on the message.

Before the Empress returned to the palace, Zhang Yanling asked Empress Zhang. Empress Zhang only said that if he came, he would be in chaos and everyone would be in peace. It would take a lot of trouble to receive the emperor alone, so it was inconvenient to attend. Although Zhang Yanling felt that this reason was a bit strange, after all, the Emperor did not come, and the Empress left the palace with the same pomp. Besides, the Emperor had to at least give something, such as writing a word, writing a plaque, or something to publicly express it. There are probably some reasons in this.

But Zhang Yanling had no time to think about it. Today's day has been dealing with it. Zhang Yanling, who was drunk, just wanted to have a good sleep now. So he asked A Xiuma Quan Huang Si and the others to clean up and get up and go to the back house with Ayao.

He habitually walked towards the main house of the back house. He saw the red lights flashing and the lights were decorated in the yard from afar. He suddenly remembered that the main house could not sleep, so he turned around and went straight to Axiu's residence in the west courtyard of the back house.

After entering the room, I took off my wedding clothes and lay on the bed. My mind was in a mess, and I fell asleep soon.
