"Hey! Brother Ji's second uncle, you're here! Come in and have a seat! "
"You are? Oh, you're Brother Ji's eldest uncle right? Brother Ji told me about you? Please come in! "
"Brother Ji's eldest uncle, please come in and have a seat!"
The next day, it was close to noon. In front of the Han Family Village's new residence, red silk was fluttering in the wind.
Pang Feiji's two underlings, Xiong Da and Xiong Er, were serving as hosts at the entrance of the courtyard, greeting the guests. These two brothers were twins. Today, they were wearing brand new clothes, which made them look especially festive. It was fitting for the occasion.
"Yo! Brothers Liu, you're here so early too? "
At this time, two people came over. Xiong Da's eyes lit up and he quickly went forward to greet them warmly.
They were Li Zexuan's current bodyguards, Liu Feng and Liu Yun.
Liu Feng smiled and said, "Brother Pang's wedding, of course we have to come early! We also want to see if there's anything we can help with! Oh right, where's Brother Pang? "
Xiong Da laughed and replied, "Boss is changing his clothes now and preparing to marry the bride! The former Japanese Princess Xiamu is now the adopted daughter of the Plum Village's Second Master Liu. She has changed her name to Liu Xiamu. We can tell outsiders that she was an orphan when she was young and was later adopted by Second Master Liu. This way, we can avoid unnecessary trouble! "
Liu Feng nodded and said, "I've heard Marquis mention this before. Don't worry, our people won't let it slip!"
He knew that this was a new identity that Li Zexuan had helped Pang Feiji's relatives and friends to avoid suspicion!
"Oh! Oh right! Brother Liu, when will Marquis and Madam Marquis arrive? "
Xiong Da asked.
"They should be here soon. Marquis asked us to come first. He said he'll come later! Xiong Da and Xiong Er, you guys go ahead. We'll go in and see if there's anything we can help with! "
Liu Feng replied and walked into the courtyard.
…
"Hehe! Feiji is doing well now. He's following the Marquis of Yong 'an to do great things and even married a beautiful wife. Second Sister Yu, you finally don't have to worry about Feiji anymore ~! "
Pang family, main hall.
A few of Pang Feiji's close friends and relatives were sitting beside Pang Feiji's mother, Madam Yu, and chatting about daily life.
"Haha! Not gay his aunt, for him to be able to get to where he is today, it's all because of Marquis's nurturing. Otherwise, based on his previous sloppy attitude in Wu Hou government, when would he be able to find a wife? "
Madam Yu's face was rosy and beaming with joy. It was obvious that she was very happy.
"Haha! I heard that Fei Ke's wife is really pretty. We'll have to open our eyes later! "
"That's right! Feige is considered the most promising child in the Pang family. His wife must be extraordinarily beautiful. As relatives, we have never seen her before! Wait a moment! We have to take a good look! "
Inside the house, Pang Feiji's seven and eight aunts were all talking noisily.
Madam Yu pursed her lips and smiled. "I don't care if she's pretty or not, as long as she's virtuous and Fei Ke likes her!"
"Second Sister Yu is right. When marrying a wife, you can't just look at her looks. What's important is that she's virtuous!"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
"Eh? Speaking of which, Chen should be here soon. Where's Feiji? We're all waiting to welcome the bride together ~! "
"He's here! He's here! Second Uncle, Second Aunt, Eldest Uncle, Uncle, you're all here? "
As they were talking, Pang Feiji walked out of the room in his wedding attire with a bright red flower pinned on his chest.
"Yo ~! Eldest Nephew, you look so spirited in this wedding attire! "
"That's right, that's right! Feige used to look like a burly man, but after dressing up today, he looks quite handsome. That lady has good taste! "
Pang Feiji felt a little embarrassed after hearing everyone's praises. He scratched his head and smiled. "That's enough, Uncle, Second Aunt, stop talking. If you continue, people will say that you're selling melons and praising yourselves!"
"Hey! Look at you, child. How can you say that about your relatives? "
"That's right! If we're old ladies, then Feige, aren't you a watermelon? "
Everyone burst into laughter when they heard that.
"Eldest Brother, the auspicious hour is here. We should go to Plum Village to welcome the bride!"
At this moment, Big Xiong walked in and said to Pang Feiji.
"That's right! Feige, go and welcome the bride. Don't miss the auspicious hour! "
Madam Yu also stood up and said.
"Yes! Mother! "
Pang Feiji nodded.
Then, he rode on a tall horse and led the wedding procession to Plum Village.
At four in the afternoon, the wedding procession brought the bride back to the Han Family Manor.
Just as they were about to perform the ceremony, a shout came from outside the door.
"The Marquis of Yong 'an has arrived! The Marquis of Yong 'an has arrived! Twenty pieces of jade, ten pearls, a pair of elephant tusks, a Great Celestial Mirror, and a hundred thousand dollars! "
It was Big Xiong's voice.
After hearing that, everyone in the house was shocked. Firstly, they were shocked that Li Zexuan, the Marquis of Tang Kingdom, would come personally to Pang Feiji's wedding. Secondly, they were shocked that Li Zexuan would bring such valuable gifts!
Everyone could not help but reevaluate the relationship between Pang Feiji and Li Zexuan.
"Marquis! You … You're here? Quick, take a seat! "
Pang Feiji was also a little surprised. In his mind, Li Zexuan coming to attend his wedding banquet was already giving him face. He didn't expect Li Zexuan to not only come, but also bring so many congratulatory gifts!
If you treat me like a country knight, I will repay you like a country knight!
At this moment, he thought that even if Li Zexuan asked him to die immediately, he would be willing to do so without a frown!
"Hehe! I was delayed by some things on the way. I should not have missed the timing. Otherwise, I would have sinned greatly! "
Li Zexuan nodded and said with a smile.
"Greetings, Marquis Yong 'an!"
Next to Pang Feiji, the bride, Suwo Xiamu, who was dressed in red and covered with a veil, quickly came over and bowed to Li Zexuan.
She did the standard etiquette of a Han woman. She must have put in a lot of effort in private.
"Greetings, Marquis!"
Everyone in the room recovered from their shock and hurriedly bowed to Li Zexuan.
Among Pang Feiji's friends and relatives, some were from Lantian County, some were from Chang 'an City, and some were from other counties around Chang' an City. However, no matter where they came from, they had all heard of Li Zexuan's name without exception. Most of them had even received favors from Li Zexuan!
However, most of them had only heard of Li Zexuan's name in the past. Now that they were able to see him up close, they couldn't help but feel excited. At the same time, they couldn't help but secretly praise Pang Feiji for being so successful. Li Zexuan had personally come to support his wedding with a huge gift!
"Hehe! There's no need to be so polite! I brought my wife here today to drink a cup of wine. We can't steal the limelight. Those who are supposed to get married, get married. Those who are supposed to get married, get married. There's no need to care about me! Don't miss the time! "
Li Zexuan waved his hand and said with an easy-going expression.
Everyone could not help but breathe a sigh of relief when they saw Li Zexuan being so easy-going.
Pang Feiji's mother, Madam Yu, walked over and bowed to Li Zexuan. "I, Madam Yu, greet Marquis! It is the Pang family's honor that Marquis can attend my son's wedding. How can my son accept Marquis's generous gift? "
Li Zexuan turned his head to look at Han Yuxi. Han Yuxi understood and went forward to help Madam Yu up. Li Zexuan then said, "Madam Yu, Feiji has done his best by my side. It can be said that he has worked hard and contributed a lot. I have never treated him as a servant. A mere gift is nothing! Don't decline anymore. Today is Feiji's wedding day. There are more important things to do! "
Seeing Li Zexuan's sincerity, Madam Yu could not decline anymore. She thanked him and then turned to look at Pang Feiji. She said seriously, "My son, the Pang family has to have a conscience. Marquis has treated you so well. If you can't serve Marquis wholeheartedly in the future, I won't acknowledge you as my son! Do you hear me? "
Pang Feiji nodded heavily and said, "Mother, you don't need to say this. I know. Don't worry!"
"Alright, alright! Hurry up and get married! The guests are getting impatient from waiting! "
Li Zexuan urged at this moment.
Madam Yu smiled and agreed. She also invited Li Zexuan to sit on the left side of the main hall. However, how could Li Zexuan be willing to sit there? This seat was usually reserved for the parents of the married people. He could not break the rules.
"Alright! Deacon, please take your seat. The first gong, pray for good luck and eternal peace. The second gong, bless the newlyweds. The third gong, the auspicious time has arrived. Lanterns and colored banners will be hung and the auspicious stars will shine. Let's invite the bride and groom to the flower hall! ”
Xiong Da started to preside over the wedding ceremony.
Li Zexuan, who was sitting at the head of the hall, almost spat out the tea in his mouth when he heard this. He thought to himself, Where did this guy learn this from? It looked like it was true! However, this guy had to straighten his tongue when he spoke. Otherwise, it would sound too funny!
"First, bow to the heavens and earth to thank our marriage.
Bow to thank the heavens for the auspicious signs.
Bow to the heavens and earth for a long time.
Pray for happiness and good health. Bow to the heavens three times!
Rise!
Bow to the parents for raising us. Bow to the heavens and earth!
Thank the parents for raising us. Bow to the heavens and earth.
Bow to the heavens and earth. Bow to the heavens and earth. Bow to the heavens and earth!
Pray for the heavens and earth. Bow to the heavens and earth!
Rise! "
After the three bows to the parents, Pang Feiji paused. Then, he pulled Xia Mu and walked to Li Zexuan. The two of them knelt down together. Pang Feiji said, "This bow is to thank Marquis for giving me a new life and for raising me. Feiji will go through fire and water for Marquis in the future. I won't hesitate!"
Xia Mu said, "Thank you, Marquis Yong 'an, for saving my life and giving me a good partner!"
"Get up!"
Li Zexuan helped the two of them up. Then, he smiled meaningfully and said, "Since the two of you are together, then live a good life. There is a saying, 'If you marry a chicken, follow the chicken; if you marry a dog, follow the dog'. Let's not delve into the past for now. But Xia Mu, since you are married to Pang Feiji, then you have to think about your husband's family! Feiji, if Xia Mu is really a virtuous and virtuous wife, then you have to treat her well! With a harmonious and stable family as your backing, you can do things for me wholeheartedly. Do you hear me? "
The meaning behind these words was to warn Xia Mu that after marrying Pang Feiji, she had to completely become a Tang. She had to completely forget her identity as a Japanese. She had to forget about her country and her people. She had to think about her husband's family and the Tang Empire. She had to not do anything that would harm the interests of the Tang Empire!
"We will remember Marquis's teachings!"
Pang Feiji and Xia Mu said in unison.
"Alright! Let's continue with the wedding ceremony! "
Li Zexuan waved his hand and said.
The two of them hurriedly agreed.
Xiong Da then shouted,
"Husband and wife, bow to each other! A hundred years of cultivation to cross the sea together. A thousand years of cultivation to sleep on the same pillow. The bride and groom face each other. Husband and wife bow to each other in front of the flower hall. Kneel!
Heaven and earth meet, the zither sing in harmony. Kowtow!
Mandarin ducks wing to wing, husband and wife of one heart, kowtow again!
Husband and wife sing together, you have a son early, kowtow thrice! Rise! The ceremony is complete, send the bride to the bridal chamber! "
After the wedding ceremony, it was time for the banquet.
Li Zexuan had originally planned to drink a cup of wine before leaving with his wife. Many guests could not eat freely with him around. However, just as he was about to leave, he saw two familiar faces at the table beside him — Yan Shaoning and Mo Lingwei!
"Little Ningzi, look at Pang Feiji and then look at yourself! Hmph! "
"Me? What's wrong with me? "
"Hmph! What's wrong with you? "
"Oh! I understand now! Don't worry, Wei 'er. I'll find a chance to talk to my father about us. I'll ask him to send a matchmaker to your house to propose marriage as soon as possible! "
"Bah! Who … Who wants you to propose marriage? You're really shameless. I'm going to ignore you! "
"No … No, didn't Yamachō analyze me like this the last time? Wei 'er, don't you want to marry me? "
Hearing this, Li Zexuan was speechless. He really wanted to pick up a brick and smack Yan Shaoning's head. He had seen emotional idiots before, but he had never seen such an idiot before!
However, in order to avoid being entangled with these two infatuated men and women, Li Zexuan did not go over to greet them. He only informed Pang Feiji before leaving with Han Yuxi!
Today, they had attended a wedding banquet. It wouldn't be long before they had to attend another wedding banquet!
To be honest, Li Zexuan was very happy to see that his good brother Yan Shaoning could find a good match!
…
"Yamachō, the workshop has already refined a batch of vanadium and produced two cans of concentrated sulfuric acid. Do you want to go over and take a look?"
The next day, afternoon.
Li Zexuan was about to go home when he met Wang Ji at the foot of the Cloud Mountain.
Wang Ji stopped the carriage and said to Li Zexuan excitedly.
"So fast?"
Li Zexuan was shocked. He had planned to come back to the Cloud Mountain to check on the progress in a few days, but he did not expect Wang Ji to produce concentrated sulfuric acid so quickly!
This kind of progress was truly beyond his expectations!
However, looking at Wang Ji's panda eyes and his face full of excitement, Li Zexuan immediately understood that Wang Ji's progress was so fast because this old man had stayed up late in the workshop again!
"Mr. Wang, how many times have I told you? I told you not to stay up late and not to rush the progress. Why didn't you listen? "
Li Zexuan looked at Wang Ji and reprimanded him.
"Haha! Yamachō, it doesn't matter. I slept for more than four hours last night. I'm still energetic! Besides, there are electric lights in the workshop now. Working at night is almost the same as during the day. "
