"Not bad! Little Xuan, when other people get married, the bride's family will make things difficult for them. But when you come here, it's like you're going home. You're amazing! Teach me! "
After entering the Han Family Manor, Li Zexuan led everyone to the Han Family's small courtyard. The grandiose procession of horses and carriages almost filled the entire village. Just as Li Zexuan was thinking about how to turn the procession around, Cheng Chumo ran over and asked with a fawning face.
"Why are you learning this? You don't even have a girlfriend yet, and you're already thinking about getting married. Aren't you thinking too much? "
Li Zexuan squinted his eyes and said indifferently.
His eyes and expression were clearly saying, "You're a single dog, don't worry about it. Even if you learn it, you won't be able to use it!"
Cheng Chumo was furious. He wanted to go up and fight, but he was pulled back by Cheng Yaojin.
"Brat, watch from the side and learn well. Don't mess around. After so many years, I haven't seen you get a wife. Useless!"
Cheng Chumo opened his mouth. Not only was he fed dog food by Li Zexuan, but now he was being fed dog shit by his own father. My life is really bitter!
… … …
"Bride, rush her out! Bride, rush her out! Bride, rush her out! Bride, rush her out! Bride, rush her out … … "
When they arrived at the Han Manor's courtyard, today's wedding ceremony had reached the most important part — rushing the bride's makeup. Li Zexuan brought so many carriages, so of course, he couldn't bring all of them to the Han Manor. Only the leading carriage was brought here to pick up the bride. The rest of the carriages were lined up on the small path in the village. Following Li Zexuan was the 1200 people who came with the bride.
With so many people, the small courtyard of the Han Clan would definitely not be able to fit all of them. Only a little over a hundred people entered the courtyard with Li Zexuan. The rest of the people were in the open space outside the courtyard to bolster Li Zexuan's momentum.
More than 1,200 strong men shouted the same sentence in unison. It could only be described as a "deafening sound wave". Those who had gone through military training in high school or university would definitely be very familiar with this scene. It was just like more than a thousand people shouting slogans in unison during military training, each louder than the previous one, and each louder than the previous one.
At this moment, the noise had clearly broken through the upper limit. This was especially true for Cheng Chumo and Yuchi Baolin, who were famous for their loud voices. They were shouting and yelling at the same time, trying their best to kick up a fuss. This kind of noise completely broke the atmosphere. Looking at the two of them, it didn't seem like they were here to help Li Zexuan rush the bride, but to make a fool of themselves.
In the boudoir, a group of people suddenly covered their mouths and chuckled. Han Yuxi could tell that this was Li Zexuan's good brother's mischief. She shook her head in amusement and didn't get angry. She just looked at the dressing table in silence.
Madam Qin laughed and scolded, "It must be Chumo and Bao Lin. Those two kids are just messing around. I'll have to scold them when we get back!"
"Mother, it's okay. Everyone is happy. It's good to be lively!"
Han Yuxi smiled slightly.
Madam Qin smiled and nodded. After a while, she called Han Yuxi to get ready to go out. "Yuxi, that's enough. Let's go out!"
So, Li Zexuan could finally see his wife, whom he hadn't seen for a long time? Of course not! There were still procedures to be completed!
Madam Qin and the maidservants supported and surrounded Han Yuxi as they carried her out of the boudoir. Now, even if the bride left the room and went to the hall, the house would hang layers of screens and curtains to block the way. There was a saddle on the ground inside the tent, and Han Yuxi was supported to sit on the saddle. She faced the south and back to the north. At this time, no matter how one looked at it, one could only vaguely see a graceful shadow.
Next, it was time to prepare for the "birthing ceremony". "Birthing the Wild Goose" was the core part of the wedding ceremony in the Tang Dynasty. Because wild geese were monogamous and loyal, the ancients used wild geese as mascots. They hoped that the newlyweds would live happily ever after and never stop until death …
That being said, even though the social status of women in the Tang Dynasty was higher than that of women in the later dynasties, it was still normal for men to have multiple wives and concubines. Therefore, this so-called "birthing ceremony" was just a beautiful fantasy of a married woman for her future husband.
Li Zexuan looked at the faintly discernible graceful figure behind the screen, and his heart was filled with joy and excitement. He turned around and picked up the live wild goose he had brought from home. Circulating his zhenqi, he accurately threw it over the screen. Behind the screen, the maidservants and young girls from the same village saw the wild goose being thrown over. They swarmed over and grabbed the wild goose, then used some ropes to tie up the wild goose's body and mouth. They didn't let it move or cry and just left it there. After the wedding, the groom's family would come back with something to "redeem" the wild goose and set it free.
Then, there was the melodramatic plot that Li Zexuan often saw in countless time-travel novels in his previous life — reciting poems. This had to be recited until the bride was so touched that she asked someone to tear open the curtain. Only then could the couple meet. At this time, the groom was usually very anxious.
Because ancient times were not like modern times, many couples would not meet before marriage, let alone know each other. Therefore, the groom was usually eager to know what his future wife looked like. However, Li Zexuan and Han Yuxi were different. They were free to fall in love.
Although he already knew that Han Yuxi was as beautiful as a fairy, Li Zexuan still had to recite a poem. However, he was already prepared for this.
"Last night's stars and last night's wind; West of the painting tower, east of the cassia hall; Body without the wings of a colorful phoenix, heart as one. Next seat, send Gou Chun wine to warm, separate Cao shoot to cover the red wax lantern; Siu Yu listen to the drum to respond to the official, walk the horse Lantai to turn the canopy. "
"Good! Good! Good! Well done! "
Once Li Shangyin's "Untitled" poem was released, it would definitely shock everyone, right? Haha! You think too much! Most of the people present were rough men. How many of them were cultured? How many of them knew how to appreciate poems? Cheng Chumo and the others did not care about the poem. As long as it was written by Li Zexuan, they would praise it in unison.
However, it was an eternal masterpiece. Among the people present, there were always people who knew what was good, such as Mrs. Qin and Han Yuxi.
"Good, good, good! I didn't expect Little Xuan's literary talent to be so outstanding! This makeup poem can be considered a rare masterpiece ~! "
Mrs. Qin savored it for a moment, then clapped her hands and laughed.
She had originally thought that Li Zexuan would use a few works of his predecessors to bluff his way through. After all, Li Zexuan was not known for his talent in poetry. She had never thought that she would be able to hear such a masterpiece handed down from generation to generation today.
"Body without the wings of a colorful phoenix, heart as one."
Han Yuxi's eyes bloomed with infinite brilliance. She kept repeating these two lines of the poem. Gradually, her eyes became a little moist. She said softly, "Mother ~! Let them take down the screen ~! "
"Ah ~! Good, good, good. Looks like Little Xuan is quite capable. He moved Yuxi with a poem ~! Hongling, take down the screen, take down the curtain ~! "
Mrs. Qin was stunned, but she did not object. She was only slightly surprised and got someone to do it.
