Chapter 305 Recognizing Family
At the gate of Li's Mansion in Liushu Hutong, Mother Zhang and Haitang personally led people and carried lanterns to meet them under the steps outside the gate. Seeing Wei Shuisheng help Shuilian get out of the car, they hurried forward and said auspicious words to salute. The little man led Wei Shuisheng into the main hall. Mother Zhang and Haitang led Shuilian to the main hall to worship the new wife.
The front of the main hall has been set up for a long time. There is a big red and painted high table with a mirror table and a bronze mirror. Mother Zhang led Shuilian to kneel on the big red cushion in front of the table and meticulously salute three times to the bronze mirror. Li Xiaoyao stood on the steps of the main hall wrapped in a cloak and holding a flat red copper hand stove and laughed. Yingying looked at the lively. Lv Feng stood next to her and pointed to Shuilian undisguisedly, saying how his sister-in-law was in those years and how the etiquette was between the south and the north was. Wei Shuisheng, who was standing in the main hall, looked sideways. Li Xiaoyao seemed to listen to Lv Feng's words. He just wondered that the bride worshipped. Tang is such a worship, worshiping a bronze mirror, and I don't know what it means.
Shuilian knelt three times and kowtowed nine times. Begonia hurried forward to help her up. Mother Zhang led her and went into the main hall. The dowry girl who followed her hurriedly hugged the reward and followed. According to the rules of Beiping, the bride worshipped the hall. The next step was to recognize her eldest relatives. The bride wanted to present silk, shoes, pillows, purses and other things one by one. Tao asked the bride to recognize her relatives and offer her congratulations, and her relatives naturally wanted to return the gift, which is called congratulations. Of course, the rewarding object is the best if it is made by the bride herself.
Wei Shuisheng quietly stepped out of the threshold of the main hall, went down two steps, reached out to help Shuilian in. Li Xiaoxiao looked at Wei Shuisheng with a curved smile, and the bronze stove with his fingernails jingled. Lv Feng and Li Zonggui, who jumped out of the room, whistled strangely beside him. Shuilian's face turned red, and Wei Shuisheng only turned his face. Pretend not to hear, I don't plan to pay attention to this boring trio at all.
At the head of the main hall, Mr. Fan sat on the left. Li Zongliang sat in his right hand, and the two rows of chairs below sat in turn. Li Erhuai and his wife, Zhang Tiemu and his wife, Jiang Shuncai and Cheng Wang and other people sat in turn. Li Tiemu was still sitting steadily. Jiang Shuncai and Cheng Wang and others sat a little uneasy. Li Xiaoyao and other three people came in and fell in turn. Sitting down, Li Xiaoyao took a cup of tea and drank it, looking with a smile at Wei Shuisheng leading Shuilian to recognize each other and send congratulatory gifts.
Wisteria and Begonia put two big red mats in front of Mr. Fan. Before Wei Shuisheng and Shuilian knelt down, Mr. Fan had hurriedly stood up to help Wei Shuisheng and smiled, "You can't make such a big gift!" I can't do it!" Wei Shuisheng did not insist. He bowed to the end. Shuilian bowed his knees and gave a blessing. He took the tray handed over by the mother behind him and raised his head and said respectfully, "Sir, these are shoes made by my niece." In the middle of the tray were two pairs of exquisitely crafted indigo silk cloth shoes. Mr. Fan quickly took the shoes from the tray, thanked them repeatedly, and put an old piece of white jade on the tray and said with a smile, "The bride is as warm as jade, and she is now returned to the Wei family, which is the blessing of the Wei family."
Shuilian and Wei Shuisheng thanked Mr. Fan and turned to Li Zongliang and bowed their knees. Shuilian gave Li Zongliang a dark blue brocade gown. Li Zongliang answered the red gold inlaid shrimp beard bracelet. To Li Erhuai and his wife, Shuilian sent a dark jujube red brocade gown and a twelve large red In the pomegranate skirt, Sister Zhang returned an extremely thick red gold hairpin with a smile on her face. Li Xiaoyao stared at the golden hairpin, which was obviously not good-looking as long as the weight was, and sighed that it was indeed like a person. At first glance, this golden hairpin was produced by Sister Zhang. Lv Feng stared at the golden hairpin, covered half of his face with a fan and smiled, came over and lowered his voice. He said, "It's better to go back to a lifetime of golden cakes." Li Xiaoyao turned his head and tried his best to hold back his smile.
This wedding was lively and smooth beyond her expectation. Yesterday's miscellaneous drama was also better than expected. Last night, someone was invited to the house to perform. Luo Yan followed the rules set by Li Xiaoyao. If you want to see it, please come to the Green Courtyard. If you want to come, you will not agree anyway.
Li Xiaoyao stopped walking. Do you want to go to the Green Courtyard? Forget it. It's better to stay at home these two days and don't go anywhere. In times of emergency, be careful.
Li Zongliang accompanied Mr. Fan for lunch and came back. M Mother Zhang came in and saw that Li Xiaoyao had fallen asleep. She thought about it and told Li Xiaoyi to wait for Li Xiaoyao to wake up and report that Li Zongliang had returned, so he did not wake up Li Xiaoyao. First, it was not urgent to see the girl's appearance. Second, the girl has been resting these two days. Today It's hard to fall asleep, and I can't bear to wake her up anymore.
It was not until the end that Li Xiaoyao washed and changed his clothes and went to the front yard to talk to Li Zongliang.
Li Zongliang was sitting in the yard reading a book. When he saw Li Xiaoyao coming in, he greeted him with a smile. He got up and went to the room and moved a chair to let Li Xiaoyao sit down. Li Xiaoyao sat down and looked at Li Zongliang and asked with a smile, "I'm busy these days, and I didn't have time to ask my eldest brother. Before entering the city, did you go to Han Chan'an to see Sister Fan?"
"I didn't go, and my husband didn't go either. What do you mean? It's best for her to calm down in the nunnery and don't disturb her. That's what I mean." Li Zongliang answered very directly. Li Xiaoyao frowned. Li Zongliang looked at her and then explained, "I was going to persuade my husband to see her. My husband said that whether it was me or me, it would be harmful to go to see her at this time." Li Xiaoyao looked at Li Zongliang and sighed and whispered, "I went to see her a while ago, but I didn't let her see me. She was very thin and bitter. Grandma Shen said that she was worried day and night, and she was afraid that you would break this marriage. She had to die in the nunnery in her life. I asked my grandmother to persuade her more and calm her heart. Since you and The gentleman has discussed it, so that's it. Tomorrow I'll ask M mother Zhang to send someone there. First, I will tell her about the marriage of Shui Sheng, and second, I will bring her the second sister-in-law's congratulations.
"Hmm." Li Zongliang answered in a low voice, reached out and brushed Li Xiaoyao's scattered hair. He said pitily, "You are not young anymore. Don't just worry about your brothers, and pay more attention to your own affairs. As long as you are kind and good to others, don't care too much."
"I know, big brother, don't worry." Li Xiaoyao answered vaguely. As he said, he got up and said goodbye to Li Zongliang, asked Mother Zhang to come over and ordered her to send someone to the Hancicada Temple the next day.
