Chapter 179: Welcome to the door

The Cai Mansion was also decorated with lights and colorful clothes. Cai Yong was wearing black satin clothes and stood at the gate with joy all over his face.?

Cai Yong was even more happy to see Guan Yan slowly driving the horse with the wedding team.

All the old friends around congratulated each other: "Your Majesty Cai is so happy to have this good son-in-law!"

Cai Yong laughed: "Happy together!"

Lord Taishan was right there, but Guan Yan dared not sit high and immediately. He quickly turned over and got off the horse and said, "Gourse to Mr. Cai!"

Huangfu Song took two steps at once, slapped Guan Yan in the back of the head: "Stupid brat, why are you still named Cai Weng?"

Guan Yan knew it and quickly changed his words: "Greetings to my father-in-law!"

Cai Yong's face was better: "Please get up with a wise son-in-law!"

Guan Yan stood up, glanced behind Cai Yong secretly, and asked carefully: "Master Taishan, Zhao Ji..."

Cai Yong raised his white beard and replied softly, "Look at your unpromising thing! You have asked you to come to welcome the bride, will there be fewer people?"

As he said that, Cai Yong turned sideways and saw a beautiful figure slowly walking behind the stone screen surrounded by the crowd.

Although it was through the red veil, Guan Yan seemed to be able to feel the shyness between his eyebrows and eyes under the veil through the red cloth.

Guan Yan was stunned for a moment and stood there as if time had frozen at this moment.

"Uh!" Although it is a good thing for the son-in-law to be obsessed with his daughter, Guan Yan's stupid look was really not good in front of everyone. Cai Yong coughed heavily before awakening Guan Yan.

Guan Yan quickly calmed down and stood beside him.

According to etiquette, when the bride leaves her parents' house to get into the sedan chair, her brother should carry it out and send it to the sedan chair. However, Cai Yan is Cai Yong's only daughter, so she had to let Cai Yong's nephew, Cai Zhe, do it on her behalf.

Cai Yan has a slim figure, and Cai Zhe took Cai Yan into the sedan chair without much effort.

When Cai Yan sat down, the host shouted: "Get up the sedan chair and play music!"

Gongs, drums, suona, and flutes sounded in an instant, and the scene suddenly became lively. Guan Yan saluted Cai Yong: "My father-in-law, the son-in-law will take the lead and wait for the journey of Mount Tai!"

Cai Yong nodded, Guan Yan couldn't wait to turn back on his horse and lead the wedding team to his mansion.

The situation of returning was much greater than when I came. With Guan Yan's large reward, the ritual musicians were playing hard, and the entire Zhuque Street was full of joy and lively.

Guan Yan's mansion was not far from Cai's Mansion. Although the wedding party was not moving quickly, he could vaguely see the eaves of Guan's mansion in less than two hours.

Turning through another alley, you can see your own gate. Guan Yan couldn't help but kick the horse's belly and move forward.

Guan Yangang, who was full of joy, turned the alley, and a fire came into his eyes and a wave of heat came to his face.

Even though the Red Rabbit Horse under his crotch is a peerless horse, it is a beast after all. Any animal except humans is more afraid of fire. The fire waves rushed towards him, and the Red Rabbit Horse neighed and retreated continuously. Guan Yan squandered a lot of strength before he comforted the Red Rabbit Horse.

Looking up, the fire had basically covered the door of the mansion, and the fire could be seen vaguely.

Guan Yan's first reaction was: Who came to my house to set the fire? If someone set the fire, why didn't he see who went to put out the fire?

Guan Yan turned over and got off the horse, walked forward quickly to see what was going on.

At this moment, a person flashed out from behind the fire and shouted with joy: "It's not bad, it's so big! How festive! Hahaha~~~"

When he heard the sound of laughing, Guan Yan's mind was filled with a square face - Zhou Cang.

"Old Zhou, what are you doing?" Guan Yan asked.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Cang turned around and hurriedly ran in front of Guan Yan: "Lord, what you told me to do is done!"

As he said that, Zhou Cang shook his arm and pointed at the fire behind him as if he wanted to make a contribution.

Guan Yan looked at the fire that was getting stronger and stronger, then looked at Zhou Cang's eager and praising eyes, and asked in confusion: "What did I tell you?"

Zhou Cangqi said: "When the lord left today, I asked me to set up a brazier in front of the mansion. Did you forget?"

In ancient times, there was a saying that a bride sat in a sedan chair and passed by a charcoal brazier. Even if the etiquette is still followed in modern times, the bride usually crosses directly with the help of a matchmaker.

Guan Yan also agreed with the etiquette of crossing the brazier. Before we went out, Guan Yan specifically instructed Zhou Cang to burn a brazier in front of the mansion. Due to the haste, Guan Yan did not have time to explain in detail, so Zhou Cang believed that Guan Yan meant to ignite a bonfire to increase the festive atmosphere.

So, this "masterpiece" was completed.

Guan Yan looked up at the fire that was running through the sky. If he carried the sedan chair and passed by, Cai Yan would probably be burnt!

Guan Yan suppressed his anger and grinned at Zhou Cang: "It's done well!"

Zhou Cang's tampered man did not see the anger of killing in Guan Yan's eyes. When he heard Guan Yan's praise, Zhou Cang clasped his fists and said happily: "Thank you for your appreciation, lord!"

If it were normal, Guan Yan would have cursed, but today is the day of Guan Yan's wedding. Guan Yan could only bear the anger in his heart and gently patted Zhou Cang's square face: "No need to thank you! Take the fire away! The bride is about to enter!"

"Here!" Zhou Cang clasped his fists and turned around and shouted: "Don't add firewood, retreat, retreat, withdraw the fun fire!"

The fire was quickly withdrawn. Several personal guards "drained the fire from the bottom of the cauldron" and pulled away the firewood lined below one by one, and the fire gradually disappeared.

Guan Yan sighed and turned his horse back. When he saw the sedan chair behind him, Guan Yan couldn't help but smile from the bottom of his heart.

Although the fire was extinguished, the ground had already burned hot. When passing by the black stone floor, the rolling heat waves still made people feel uncomfortable, which was much hotter than the brazier.

The four sedan chairmen have carried many brides' sedan chairs, but they have never seen such a brazier. The four of them couldn't help but think: Dongxiang Hou is not an ordinary person after all, and this brazier is unique!

After passing the brazier, Guan Yan got off the horse and stood in front of the mansion gate. Everyone stood on both sides, only Cai Yan's sedan chair was parked outside the mansion gate.

The following should be the joyful arrows. Before the bride gets out of the sedan chair, the groom has to draw a bow and shoot three red arrows at the sedan door to drive away the joy that the bride may be contaminated along the way.

As the host shouted, Chen Deng presented a longbow and three arrows. The longbow is an ordinary bow, but a circle of red cloth is wrapped outside to show joy. The arrows are not ordinary arrows. The arrows of these arrows have been cut off, leaving only the arrow shaft, which is painted with vermilion paint, and even the feathers at the tail are festive red.

Guan Yan bent his bow and arrows. Under the gaze of everyone, the first happy arrow came out, and in the center of the sedan door, everyone cheered loudly.

The second and third ones shot out one after another, and the arrows and arrows hit the sedan door, and everyone cheered.

Seeing this, the emcee shouted at the top of her voice: "The bride is coming in~~"
