Chapter 788 Getting Married

Spring came a little late this year.

However, when the grass grows and the warblers fly to welcome the spring flowers, they will also come when it is late.

In the past, there were not many visitors at the gate of the temple. Except for the young monk who cleaned the gate, few people came here.

But today, the entrance of the temple is rarely noisy.

Chen Xiyi and Mo Yukun were ready to go home, and several friends including Wu Hutui saw them off at the gate of the temple.

Looking at Chen Xiyi and Mo Yukun who were carrying the packed packages with them, Wu Hutui said with some reluctance.

"Why are you going home so soon?"

"It's not too soon. After entering the temple to practice for at least three years or even five years, you have to leave." Chen Xi said with a slight smile as he waved the paper fan in his hand.

"And I've already been engaged in Tianshui. Your lady has been waiting for me for a few years. It's time to go home and get married."

"Oh, your fiancée is Mo Yukun's cousin." Wu Hu retreated and looked at Mo Yukun who was about to go home with Chen Xiyi.

Chen Xiyi said before that the Tianshui Chen clan and the Pingliang Mo clan had a long history of marriage, and Chen Xiyi and Mo Yukun were still cousins.

If it weren't for the fact that the two families have been married for many years, this time Chen Xi went to the temple to learn art at the age of 15, and the fiancee of the Mo family in Pingliang would not have waited for Chen Xi for three years.

It's just that people got married earlier in ancient times, and Chen Xi thinks it's a late marriage now. Even if the fiancee from the Mo Clan in Pingliang can wait for him for three years, it won't work if he waits for two more years. There will be some criticism.

So after finishing the assessment of becoming a teacher in the temple this time, Chen Xiyi and Mo Yukun are going to go home. Those who should get married should get married... Oh, right, speaking of which, why did Mo Yukun go home so early?

"I want to go back and marry my sister." Mo Yukun said with a hearty smile.

"What about after the wedding?" Five Tigers asked back.

"Probably go wandering around the rivers and lakes, weeding out the strong and supporting the weak." Mo Yukun said seriously.

"It's ridiculous, how can the children of Pingliang's Mo family wander around outside." Yan Churen who was on the side couldn't help but say something.

The Dingbian Nan family, Xinghaiyan family, Pingliang Mo family, Tianshui Chen family and Qingyang Shao family were the five major families in the Ye Dynasty. The children of these five families were either officials in the court or engaged in business abroad.

Although Mo Yukun and the others were sent to the temple to study and practice, the greatest effect of these practices was to allow Shao Zishu and the others to protect themselves.

Mo Yukun's closed mouth is chivalrous and righteous. It's not that this ambition is not good, but it feels a bit irresponsible when placed on the children of the five major families.

"Going home in spring, it will probably be next summer after the appointment ceremony." Shao Zishu calculated the time and said with a smile.

"When I receive your wedding invitation from Tianshuichen, I will definitely come to ask for a glass of wedding wine."

In ancient times, there were six ceremonies for getting married, which are:

Nacai, that is, the man's family invites a matchmaker to the woman's family to propose marriage. After the woman's family agrees to discuss marriage, the man uses a wild goose and prepares other gifts to propose marriage, and asks the woman's family to accept it, so it is called "Nacai".

Ask the name, after the man’s family accepts the choice, ask the matchmaker to ask the woman’s family’s name and the year, month, and day of birth, and then divination in the ancestral temple, divination of good and bad luck, and then proceed to the next step.

Najib, after the man's family asked the name, it was a good omen, and the man's family still asked the matchmaker to inform the woman's family with a wild goose as a gift, and decided to conclude a marriage.

Nazheng, also called Nacoin, after Najib, the man's family gave five pieces of black cloth and two buckskins to the woman's family as a betrothal gift, that is, the engagement ceremony later.

Please ask for a date, after accepting the levy, the man's family chooses a good day and auspicious day as the wedding date, and prepares a gift to tell the woman's family to ask for her consent.

Welcome, Xinlang personally welcomes to the woman's house to marry.

After such a set of procedures, the whole year is considered very rushed.

"Is the process of getting married so troublesome?" Wu Hu retreated and smacked his lips, a little surprised.

From spring of this year to summer of next year, a whole year's work was actually spent on hiring.

"Fortunately, I don't need to get married." Wu Hu Tui muttered.

"With your long childhood, it will take many years before you can get married." Nan Shaoxuan pressed Wu Hutui's shoulders and compared their heights.

When they first met in the past, Wu Hutui was only half a head shorter than Nan Shaoxuan. In the past three years, Nan Shaoxuan was two or three heads taller than Wuhu Tui.

"Five tigers retreat, you haven't grown up at all." Nan Shaoxuan said regretfully.

"..." The five tigers retreated.

Heartbroken.

"Hahaha, don't be angry, when I get home, I will send you some fresh things from the mountain to play with." Chen Xi gently stroked the angry Wuhutui, comforted him, and said.

"Didn't you like my black jade fan very much before the five tigers retreated? Unfortunately, it was broken for several years and I couldn't find a new one with a suitable black jade carving. When I go back to look for it, Tianshui is full of outstanding people and rare things. find something similar."

"You're going to be busy marrying young lady this time when you go back, how can you still remember me?" Wu Hu retreated and said with a grunt, making the request as a matter of course.

"I want a finely carved black jade fan."

Don't look at the fact that the five tigers have been unable to go down the mountain because of the barrier, but they have been a direct disciple of Master Wu Nian for several years, so they still have the common sense they should have.

Moyu is inherently precious, and fine carving is a very delicate and difficult way of carving.

Based on the carving techniques of this ancient era, it would be good if one piece of jade can be carved out of ten pieces, and among these successful pieces, there are very few works that can catch the eyes of Chen Xi and his family.

To say that the five tigers retreat is a big mouth for the lions, it's really not bad.

"Chen Xi used to wear the ink jade fan that was only roughly carved, and it was already worth thousands of gold. This opening is a finely carved ink jade fan. You really know how to ask for five tigers retreat. "

Nan Shaoxuan boldly rested his elbow on Wu Hutui's head, joking like a bully.

However, Shao Zishu and others who were present were also laughing happily, and no one thought that the five tigers retreated to take advantage of it.

After all, in the past few years of practicing in the temple, the five tigers have all learned the true biography of Master Wu Nian. Mo Yukun and the others have either wooden plaques or strings of Buddhist beads, and they have been consecrated by the five tigers to pray for blessings.

These Buddhist objects that have been blessed can keep people safe, and they are worth more than a thousand gold outside, and it is not uncommon for the five tigers to retreat. They are all used by Shao Zishu and the others.

The friendship of young people is the rarest and most precious, for Chen Xi and the others, things outside of him are nothing compared to these.

"When Chen Xiyi is on the way to marry Miss Sister, I will find these precious things for you." Mo Yukun patted Chen Xiyi's shoulder beside him and said with a smile.

"By the way?" Five Tigers puffed up their cheeks.

"It's good to be able to drop by the way, children, don't push too hard." Looking at Wuhu's bulging cheeks, Nan Shaoxuan couldn't help poking them.

Such an act of underestimating others caused Chen Xiyi and the others to snicker.

"..." The five tigers retreated.

I really have no love for these little friends who know how to gloat!

****

Chen Xiyi said when they left the temple that they wanted to find Moyu fans for Wu Hutui 'by the way', but in fact, before January arrived, Wuhutui received the package sent back by Chen Xiyi and them.

Leaving aside the letter that Chenxi sent to Yan Churen and the others in the package, the most secure thing in the package is a long wooden box made of sandalwood, which looks exquisite and precious on the outside, and the items inside are even more It's hard to change.

——A finely carved black jade fan.

"Chen Xi really found this precious thing." Nan Shaoxuan, who followed the five tigers and they opened the package, clicked his tongue.

It's really cheap to be young.

The five tigers haven't grown up much after three years of retreat. They still look like young and arrogant young masters when they first met Nan Shaoxuan and the others, but Shao Zishu and the others are already 'old'.

In ancient times, 15-year-old teenagers could get married and divide the family. Chen Xi thought they were all adults.

So when facing the young friend of Five Tigers Tui, Shao Zishu and the others not only had an irresistible friendship when they were young, but also inevitably brought a little bit of the doting and tolerance of the elders.

Chen Xi also said 'by the way' to find some gadgets for the five tigers to play with. According to the journey, such a precious Moyu fan was sent back and forth once a month. If he didn't pay attention, how could it be so fast.

"You are jealous of my popularity." Wu Hu retreated and put away the small wooden box containing the black jade fan, and ran out of the wing.

Five tigers retreated in Shao Zishu's wing to unpack the parcels, and what did they mean when they took the things and ran away?

"Hey, such a rare finely carved black jade fan is not common, I haven't seen enough." Shao Zishu shouted from a distance.

"Wait and see, I'm going to take this black jade fan to the master to consecrate it." Wu Hu retreated quickly, leaving only this sentence.

Wuhu Tui's self-cultivation is pretty good. In recent years, he has consecrated [-] or [-] objects, and he is very skilled in making them.

But for such a proficient job, Five Tigers returned and insisted on begging his master, Master Wu Nian, to do it, which shows how much he likes the ink jade fan that Chen Xiyi sent him.

It is said to be begging, but it is not so formal.

There are very few elders in the temple who accept disciples. Although Master Wu Nian usually seems to be indifferent to this disciple of the Five Tigers, he taught him everything and taught him carefully, saying that Master Wu Nian did not love his only disciple. disciple, who would believe it?

Not to mention being responsive to the five tigers, but on the principle of not involving homework and laziness, whatever the five tigers want, Master Wu Nian will never refuse.

So this time when Five Tigers Tui held a long sandalwood box and asked the master to consecrate the black jade fan in the box, of course Master Wu Nian agreed.

The Moyu fan that had been turned on felt a little warm in the hand, Wu Hutui liked it very much, and grinned with little tiger teeth.

In spring and summer of the following year, Chen Xi, the second young master of the Tianshui Chen clan, married Mo Qiwei, the third young lady of the Pingliang Mo clan's clan.

According to historical records, in the fourth year of Yuanshou, the marriage between the Tianshui Chen family and the Pingliang Mo family was the last public gathering of the five major families of the Ye Dynasty.

The gongs and drums are noisy, the house is full of guests, red makeup is everywhere, and flowers are blooming like brocade.

Like a castle in the air.
