"Oh, Brother Zirou, why are you here?" Cai Mao was the first to speak with a smile. Although Cai Mao and Kuai Liang were always at odds with each other at Liu Biao's residence, the Kuai Family and the Cai Family were allies. The two families had a good relationship in private.
"Second Brother, why aren't you wearing red clothes?" Kuai Yue looked at his second brother strangely. Why wasn't he wearing red clothes that represented a joyous occasion? That way, it would be more festive. One had to know that it was difficult to wear new clothes and it would take a long time to put them on. Now that they were about to leave Xi Ji Time, it was not too late for him to not wear it now!
"Welcome, welcome. Today is a joyous occasion for the Kuai Family. I, Kuai Liang, Kuai Zirou, am very happy that so many friends and family have come to my residence to attend this wedding! I, Kuai Liang, represent the Kuai Family to thank everyone for coming! " Kuai Liang did not immediately pay attention to Cai Mao and his eldest brother Kuai Yue. Instead, he stepped forward and smiled at everyone present.
The following responses were naturally flattering, saying that this was what they should do, or congratulating him.
"Some people will definitely ask why you are still wearing red clothes without the groom's red clothes!" Kuai Liang voiced everyone's doubts. "Then I will tell you that today is a joyous occasion for the Kuai Family, but it doesn't mean that it is my wedding! I, Kuai Liang, am an old man. I have long called myself an old man. How can I marry a beautiful woman? This body of mine can't take it anymore! " Kuai Liang's words stunned everyone present, and some of them even had kind smiles on their faces.
Kuai Liang's words contained a meaning that all men understood.
"Not Kuai Liang's wedding?" Everyone guessed. If it wasn't Kuai Liang, could it be Kuai Liang's son? However, no one had heard of Kuai Liang having a son. He did have a nephew, but that was Kuai Yue's son. The wedding should be held in the Kuai Residence in the inner city! Both of his daughters were married. There was no extra daughter!
"Brother Yidu, does Brother Zirou have other children? Or does Brother Yidu have other brothers that he has not introduced to us? "Cai Mao asked Kuai Yue instead of Kuai Liang.
"Children? Brother?! " Kuai Yue was also confused by Cai Mao's question. Although his second brother had moved out, how could he not know about his second brother's son? He was the one who presided over the marriage of his two nieces. How could he have a son? As for the brothers, that was even more nonsense. Their father had only left behind these two sons. He didn't even have a daughter. How could he have other brothers?
"Interesting!" Pang Degong took a sip of tea and looked at the strange scene in the field with a smile.
Cai Mao teased Kuai Liang while Kuai Yue was confused. However, all of this had nothing to do with Pang Degong. He didn't care who was getting a concubine. He was only here to greet his son and ask everyone to take care of him.
"Although my Kuai Family is a big family in Jingzhou, I, Kuai Liang, have failed to live up to expectations. I gave birth to two daughters in a row and failed to leave behind any descendants for my Kuai Family. As for my eldest brother, Kuai Yue, although he worked hard, he only left behind one child!" Although Kuai Liang's words were filled with complaints, there was also a hint of a smile in them. This made the people below laugh and even more interested in Kuai Liang's next words.
"Since the two of us can't take it anymore! Then the matter of passing down the descendants of my Kuai Family will be left to the next generation! "Kuai Liang said, making Kuai Yue feel even more uneasy.
As for the next generation of the Feng family, the ones who could blossom were naturally men. In the eyes of the ancients, a married lady was like spilled water. Even if she died, she would be buried in the ancestral grave of the Feng family.
Only men had the possibility of blooming. Those who only had daughters and no sons would either adopt a son or let the son-in-law marry into the family.
"Yidu? Could this be Nephew Kuai Ran's happy occasion? "Cai Mao looked at his old partner and said.
"Me!" Kuai Yue wanted to say that it was impossible. His son was still having fun somewhere. However, Kuai Liang was faster than him.
"I believe everyone has already guessed that the main character of our Kuai Family's wedding is my eldest brother's son, my good-for-nothing nephew Kuai Ran!" Kuai Liang's words made Kuai Yue's face darken completely.
"Kuai Ran!" Kuai Yue stared at his younger brother, who was in the middle of the crowd. How could he not know that his son was getting married? How could Kuai Yue endure this? All of this was organized by his younger brother. He finally understood why his younger brother had written so simply on the invitation card. Originally, he thought that his younger brother had been enlightened and thought it through. He also wanted to be an old cow nibbling on young grass. Although it didn't look good, he was still a landowning household after all! Naturally, he didn't care about this. However, this was a drama that even he didn't know about.
Although Kuai Yue was infuriated, he maintained a smile on his face and nodded to the congratulatory voices below. If he were to fall out with his younger brother, the Kuai Family's face would really be thrown to the ground. Among the landowning households, face was very important.
"Kuai Yue's son is getting married? Is it that Kuai Ran? " Pang Tong also looked at the scene below. He had seen Kuai Ran before. He was a very ordinary young man who was also a disciple of the Lumen Academy. Back then, when Pang Tong was arguing with the Confucians, Kuai Ran only looked at him. Naturally, Pang Tong wasn't interested in such an ordinary person. If Kuai Ran wasn't Kuai Yue's son, Pang Tong might not have even remembered his name.
However, to Pang Tong, whether it was Kuai Ran's or Kuai Liang's wedding, it had nothing to do with him. He only cared about the landowning households present. As long as he could convince them, his trip to Jingzhou would be a success. That fake King Liu Mang wouldn't be able to obtain any rations from Jingzhou. Once the Lvbu's Army couldn't get any rations and was destroyed, Pang Tong would have the final say on how Liu Mang wanted to die.
"Everyone knows that a few years ago, I didn't understand my eldest brother's intentions and moved out of the Kuai Family in a fit of anger. I moved out and lived in the outer city!" Kuai Liang directly brought up the matter of him and Kuai Yue splitting from the family.
"At that time, I didn't know any better. Although I was over 40 years old, I was still very childish. Now, I understand that no matter what happens between me and my eldest brother, my surname will always be Kuai. I will always be a member of the Kuai Family! " Kuai Liang said affectionately. Using the relationship between Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang as brothers, Liu Mang, Jia Xu, and Kuai Liang, these three sly old foxes, came up with this.
They were afraid that Kuai Yue would fall out with the person Kuai Ran was going to marry. Then, everything would be in vain. After all, Kuai Yue was Kuai Ran's father. If Kuai Yue objected, Kuai Liang wouldn't be able to do anything.
"Second brother!" Kuai Yue was still in a fit of anger. He didn't even know that his son was going to get married. Not only did he not know, but he also didn't know who he was going to marry. If it wasn't for the Kuai Family's reputation, he would have already fallen out.
However, now that Kuai Liang had used the relationship card, Kuai Yue couldn't help but be moved. Did he not have feelings for his younger brother? How could that be? The two brothers had relied on each other for so many years. They had supported each other. Kuai Liang helped the Kuai Family conquer the world while Kuai Yue helped maintain the stability of the Kuai Family. The two of them had gone through life and death situations before the Kuai Family could become an aristocratic family in Jing Province. It wasn't easy for the two of them, but because of political differences, the two brothers had different opinions. In the end, they separated. This had always made Kuai Yue feel guilty. He was a good family head, but he wasn't a good elder brother. Now that Kuai Liang had admitted his mistake, Kuai Yue immediately had the thought of hugging his younger brother.
"This time, using my nephew Kuai Ran's marriage, I also want to announce to everyone that the Kuai Family in the outer city no longer exists. I will return to the Kuai Manor once again. I wonder if my courtyard is still around? "Kuai Liang said as he looked at Kuai Yue.
"Yes, yes, of course! It hasn't moved at all. It's still the same as when you left! " Kuai Yue said to his younger brother. Kuai Yue had always wanted Kuai Liang to return. He thought that he would have to wait until the Lord left, but he didn't expect happiness to come so quickly.
"Big Brother!" Kuai Yue looked at Kuai Liang and was touched. On the other hand, Kuai Liang looked at his elder brother with guilt. To put it nicely, playing the relationship card was to strengthen the relationship between brothers. However, in reality, it was just using their relationship. He was scheming against his elder brother, but Kuai Liang didn't have a choice. Although the Kuai Family was important, it would be better if the Kuai Family didn't exist for the rest of their lives. Kuai Liang wanted the Kuai Family to not only be an aristocratic family in Jing Province, but also an aristocratic family in the world.
The feelings of the Si brothers naturally moved the people below.
"Alright, alright! If the two of you want to talk about your relationship, go back. We are here to attend Nephew Kuai Ran's wedding, not to see the two of you! " Cai Mao stepped forward and said with a smile. Kuai Liang's compromise meant that the Kuai Family's strength had increased. This meant that the Kuai Family's strength in Jing Province had increased by a level.
"Hmph!" Cai Mao was happy, but Huang She was unhappy. "Hypocrite!" Huang She snorted.
"That's right, that's right. My son's marriage is important!" Kuai Yue became more tolerant because of his second brother's return. Wasn't it just marrying a concubine? Although that unfilial son didn't tell Kuai Yue, Kuai Yue didn't care about it because of his second brother's return.
As long as it wasn't a wife, there was no pressure at all. Kuai Yue wanted to find a suitable wife for his son who was useful to the Kuai Family. For example, Cai Mao's daughter or Eunuch Cao's daughter. A concubine wasn't a big deal.
Everyone present had already accepted the fact that Kuai Liang was hosting Kuai Ran's wedding. Perhaps the Kuai brothers were just trying to find an excuse to reconcile. Wasn't it a good opportunity for their uncle to host his nephew's wedding?
"Alright, let's invite a pair of newcomers!" Kuai Liang clapped his hands. The first person to walk out was naturally Kuai Ran, who was dressed in red.
"Young Master Kuai Ran, congratulations!" Everyone congratulated Kuai Ran.
Kuai Ran also walked to the main hall and greeted his father and uncle. "Father!"
"Not bad! Not bad! " Although Kuai Yue nodded and had a smile on his face, Kuai Ran could see the dissatisfaction in his father's eyes. Kuai Yue was a strict father to Kuai Ran, so he was naturally a little afraid of his father.
Fortunately, Kuai Liang stepped forward and patted Kuai Ran's shoulder. "Go! She is still waiting for you! "
"Understood, Uncle!" With Kuai Liang's support, Kuai Ran took a deep breath and shook off his father's pressure.
"Clap, clap!" Kuai Liang clapped his hands again and two people walked out from the backyard. That's right, there were two people, a man and a woman. The woman was wearing a veil and red makeup. She was very beautiful and dignified. She was definitely the bride.
The man beside her was elegant and had the gentleness of a scholar. However, there was also a masculine firmness.
"It's you!"
"How can it be him?"
"Impossible, impossible!"
