Chapter 2583 Viewing the Ceremony

The Zhou family's team to welcome the bride arrived at Ji's house about an hour later than Mr. Xuan and others. To show that the Zhou family attached great importance to the marriage, Mr. Zhou went to Ji's house to welcome the bride in person. There were nineteen people in the team.

The Zhou family's wedding car and some young people had arrived in Qin Province two days ago. Mr. Zhou just set off from his hometown last night. He rushed to Qixian County in Qin Province in the middle of the night.

In order to keep the flowers on the wedding car bright, the Zhou family's wedding car was decorated only in the morning. It took a lot of time to decorate the car, so they fell behind Mr. Xuan and his group.

Zhou Ji's family is a family that inherits etiquette, and the wedding process is based on the ancient etiquette process. Because there is a thousand rivers between them, they do not use a sedan chair and use a modern car instead of a sedan chair.

The Zhou family's wedding convoy stopped first when it arrived at the entrance of the village. Xiniang handed the name card to the Zhou family first, and the Ji family members went out to greet the bride. The groom and other talents entered the village.

The Zhou family's betrothal gifts have already been sent to Ji's family, so they only brought a few essential things on the wedding day.

The reception envoy of the Ji family led Mr. Zhou and his entourage to the third courtyard of the main house. Mr. Ji took several brothers to greet them at the steps of the upper room, and then invited Mr. Zhou and others into the middle hall to meet with the Ji family. Elders.

Young Master Zhou led people into the middle hall and saw that Young Master Jiang Shaohua and others did not say hello. They first greeted the elders of the parents-in-law and then presented the wedding ceremony.

Everyone in the Ji family became more and more satisfied when they saw the gift from the husband's family, and invited everyone in the Zhou family to sit down and have tea.

Only then did Young Master Zhou, Third Young Master Xuan and others greet each other and take their seats.

The young people of the Zhou family have to drive when they go back. Long-distance driving is the most tiring. The Ji family also arranges rooms for them and lets them rest first after drinking tea.

The young people of the Zhou family didn't show any pretense and went to the guest room to catch up on their sleep.

Young Master Zhou sat and chatted with the elders of the Ji family for an hour and then took a nap. He returned to the main house of the Ji family more than half an hour before the luncheon and went to the place where the banquet was set to meet with the old and young of the Ji family.

Student Le Xiao actually really wanted to see the process and rules of the real old family when a man marries a girl, but Miss Jijiu kept chatting and refused to let him go, thus missing another good opportunity.

Ji Jiufeng was so happy to have little Loli and Wu Shao playing with her. She reluctantly let them go until her Xiaoba came to pick up Little Loli and Wu Shao to sit down at the table.

Before leaving, Mr. Le Xiao also gave Miss Ji Jiu the makeup gift he had prepared. When he and Master Ji Ba returned to the main hall of the Ji family's main house, the main hall of the Ji family's house had been rearranged and the banquet tables had been set up.

This time she was lucky enough to avoid sitting on the table with the master's relatives and elders. She, Young Master Xuan, Young Master Jiang and the others sat in the VIP seats.

When the elders of the Ji family invited the little girl, Mr. Xuan and others to take their seats, Mr. Zhou went over and saluted the little girl: "Thank you, little beauty, for the honor. Zhou is very grateful."

"You're welcome, I'm just following you here to eat and drink, and I'm causing trouble for you two." Le Yun responded with a smile.

"No, it's our honor for the little girl to come to this humble house." The head of the Ji family smiled brightly.

The Dongfang family sent out invitations, but the little beauty didn't show any appreciation. The Jizhou family didn't make any big deal, but the little beauty still found time to watch the ceremony despite her busy schedule. The difference was clear at a glance.

Both Mr. Zhou and the Ji family were happy that the little girl was willing to treat them as friends, and they accompanied her for a few words before leaving.

After a series of preparations, the luncheon started.

The luncheon at the Ji family was particularly grand, with pre-dinner pastries and appetizer soup first, then cold cuts, and then the formal dishes.

The little Loli was in an unprecedented mood, and her lunch was particularly delicious.

Only a small number of representatives of the bride's family will send the bride to the Zhou family in Shonan Province. Others will not go, and Young Master Zhou is not allowed to toast to thank the relatives of the Ji family.

The Ji family's luncheon had nine rounds of dishes. Mr. Zhou went to make a toast after the fifth round of dishes was served. After he finished the toast, the sixth round of dishes was served.

It took Mr. Zhou more than two hours to toast. After a period of digestion, even those who had eaten a little before were able to fight again.

The atmosphere at lunch was quite lively.

Jijiu Xiaofeng had lunch with her accompanying staff and rested for an hour before starting to put on makeup.

The banquet at the main house of the Ji family lasted until after four o'clock in the afternoon. After the banquet, fresh fruits and nuts were served.

The young people of the Ji family quickly cleaned up the main hall, took the dining table out, cleaned the floor, arranged it as it would have been when entertaining guests, and laid a carpet in the center of the hall.

Moreover, the red carpet was laid all the way from the central hall to the main entrance to the courtyard, and then outside, and the red carpet was laid all the way from the main entrance to the entrance of the village.

Near five o'clock, Xi Niang of the Zhou family urged her to make up for the first time. The best man who came with the groom to welcome the bride quickly recited a poem to urge her to make up, wrote it out, and handed it to Xi Niang of the Ji family.

Xi Niang of the Ji family sent a poem urging makeup to the woman's boudoir.

The bride's female elders are also in the boudoir, showing favor to the bride and accompanying her to talk about herself.

The bride's wife went to the bride's boudoir to have a look. After a while, she went out and said to the man: "The bride is dressing up."

The groom's family waited for a while, and Xi Niang urged her to put on makeup for the second time.

The bride's wife, Xi Niang, went to the boudoir again and received the reply that "the makeup is almost finished."

The groom's family waited for a while, and Xi Niang urged her to make up for the third time.

Xi Niang of the bride's family and a dozen female members of the bride's family go to the bride's boudoir, sit for a while, and then put a phoenix crown on the bride, a Xiapei, and a hijab.

Xi Niang helps the bride out of the boudoir, and the bride's elders and sisters of the same race go to the main house together.

The head of the Ji family, the elders of the clan, and the wedding reception staff of the Zhou family were all in the middle hall. When the bride was helped into the hall, the bride of the Zhou family came up to greet her and handed the red silk into the hands of the bride.

The bride and groom stood together and were led by Xi Niang to the front of the hall.

The head of the Ji family and the bride's parents were sitting in the high hall.

The newlyweds knelt down and thanked Gaotang.

Mrs. Ji, the head of the Ji family, gave instructions according to ancient precepts, and the bride's parents also gave some earnest instructions.

The newlyweds paid their respects to the high hall, were helped up by Xiniang, bowed to the elders from all directions, and after the ceremony was completed, they left the boudoir.

The groom helped the bride turn around and walked out. The female elders of the Ji family cried and gave away their daughter.

The head of the Ji family, Patriarch Ji, and the bride's parents were only sent to the entrance of the central hall. They did not leave the threshold of the main hall, and other elders helped them get married.

The group of people walked to the first house. Jiba Shao carried his sister on his back inside the door and sent her out.

The young and old of the Ji family were sent all the way out of the village and onto the road outside.

Major General Jiba sent his cousin to the wedding car, and he and the dozen brothers and several clan elders who were getting married went to the car behind.

According to ancient rituals, the Ji family's dowry was also sent to the Zhou family in advance. On the day of the wedding, there was no large dowry accompanying her, only a few boxes and cages, which were the most valuable part of the dowry given by the bride's parents and grandmother.

——There were valuables at the bottom of the dowry box, which is also the origin of "pressing the bottom of the box".

The Zhou family sent twelve wedding cars to pick up the bride, and the Ji family sent eighteen people to get married.

Young Master Zhou and some part of the wedding team were left behind on foot, and everyone in the Ji family saw them off.

When the motorcade slowed down for about a hundred meters, the Zhou family invited Ji's family to stay, set a table with wine, and kill a chicken.

Everyone in the Ji family stayed here.

Mr. Zhou and others packed up their belongings, boarded the car one by one, and the convoy set off.

Watching the motorcade go further and further away, until it disappeared from sight, everyone in the Ji family turned around and returned to the village.

Young Master Xuan and others also delivered the wedding to the village entrance with the Zhou family, and then went back to Ji's house. They sat there for a few minutes, drank tea, and then said goodbye.

The Ji family sent a car to take the little girl and her husband to the station in Qixian County.

Little Lolita and Du Shao waited in the station hall for less than half an hour to check in and enter the station. They waited in the station for another ten minutes before the high-speed train they took entered the station. Zhong Junshao took the high-speed train to the provincial capital of Qin Province, then transferred to the high-speed train to Han City in the north of E, and then transferred to the high-speed train to Yuezhou City in southern Hunan.

After going round and round all the way, we arrived in Yuezhou City at around four o'clock in the morning on May 1st.

Yueshi is not the terminal station of the high-speed rail, but just a stop on the way.

Zuo Shao, who finally arrived in Yuezhou, stayed at the station until dawn, went to have breakfast, and then calmly took a taxi to Zhou's house in Wuchi Lane, Shili Changqiao, on the south bank of East Dongting Lake.

The taxi took them to a place not far from their destination and convenient for parking. After collecting the fare, they went to the sports car and walked more or less slowly to Wuchichi Alley.

As soon as they appeared at the end of Wuchichi Alley, the head of the Zhou family had already brought people to greet them.

The Zhou family and the young people who were going to welcome the bride called the family in advance and informed the head of the family that several young men from the Gu Xiu family were with the little girl at Ji's house and would drive to Yuezhou at night and might arrive at Zhou's house in the morning.

The Zhou family had already arranged for people to keep an eye on them, and when they noticed the whereabouts of Young Master Jiang and others from a distance, they immediately notified the family owner.

The head of the Zhou family went out to welcome them, and received a group of young distant visitors at the entrance of the alley. Their smiles were as bright as spring, and they were less polite than others, and invited them to the Zhou family.

"The young lady and the handsome young man are traveling under the stars and the moon. How can the Zhou family be so virtuous and capable when so many young people praise Ying Hao."

"Master Zhou is too foreign. We and Young Master Zhou are old friends. He is getting married, so we naturally want to come to have a wedding drink. Maybe we will be happy because of this, and we older young people can also be single next year."


Young Master Xuan and Young Master Jiang were responsible for the communication work and had a lively conversation with the head of the Zhou family.

The head of the Zhou family was in a happy mood. He accompanied a group of young people to walk along the five-and-a-half-foot alley for a while until they arrived at the Zhou family's residence area. Then they went around and made a few twists and turns until they arrived at the Zhou family's main residence.

The Zhou family only held a family banquet, and the Zhou clan gathered together to celebrate the young master's wedding.

Some elders of the Zhou family were in the main hall where guests had always been entertained. When they saw the head of the family coming in accompanied by young heroes from the ancient cultivating family, they all stood up to greet them.

Young Master Xuan and the other guests followed the host's instructions and walked into the Zhou family hall. They greeted the elders of the Zhou family and then sat down among the guests of honor.

The young people of the Zhou family served tea and presented colorful snacks and fruits.

The young master had a conversation with the elders of the Zhou family and went out for a walk.

Young Master Xuan, Young Master Zhou and other young men rested at Zhou's house for nearly three hours. Young Master Zhou and his party finally returned to Shili Changqiao Village.

The motorcade stopped outside the village. The Zhou family carried the red sedan to the entrance of the village. The bride transferred from the sedan to the sedan.

The young people of the Zhou family carried the sedan chair away, with Young Master Zhou walking beside the sedan chair. The Zhou family's wedding team and the bride-offering team followed behind, and a mighty procession entered the village.

The sedan does not enter the Zhou family directly, but first goes around the village, and then enters the residence of the Zhou family. It is carried all the way into the main house of the Zhou family, and stops outside the Yimen gate.

Xiniang took the brazier from the Zhou family and placed it inside the threshold, then put the tiles on it.

Then he went to the door and directed the young man to place a saddle in front of the sedan, and then stood beside the sedan to wait for the bride to get out of the sedan.

The bearer removed the door of the sedan chair, and a six-year-old girl from the Zhou family who was dressed in makeup, known as the "little girl who came out of the sedan chair", pulled the bride's sleeves three times, and then the bride put her hand in the hands of the bride who came out of the sedan chair. , get out of the sedan chair.

The bride got out of the sedan chair, and the groom went up to support the bride.

Xi Niang supported the bride on the other side, helped the bride cross the sedan bars, then stepped on the saddle, crossed the saddle, walked on the red carpet to the ceremony gate, crossed the threshold and entered the second courtyard of the Zhou family.

Enter the Yimen, step over the brazier, walk a few more steps, step on the broken tiles, and go straight to the third courtyard.

Enter the third courtyard and then go to the middle hall.

The central hall was covered with a big red carpet, and red candles were lit on the altar table.

The head of the Zhou family, the matron of the Zhou family, the elders of the Zhou family, and the Ji family's natal family met the ceremony, and invited people from the Ji family to the middle hall to watch the ceremony.

The old head of the Zhou family, the head of the Zhou family, and his wife were sitting in the high hall.

Xi Niang leads the newlyweds to the front of the hall. As the master of ceremonies sings, the newlyweds kneel down and bow first to heaven and earth, and secondly to the high hall.

After the couple bows to each other, the bride and the bridegroom lift the bride up and take her to the bridal chamber.

The newlyweds paid their respects, and the head of the Zhou family entertained the wedding guests from the Ji family in the middle hall.

Classmate Le Xiao, Mr. Jiang and others followed the Zhou family to see the newlyweds to the bridal chamber. The newlyweds sat on the bed, picked up the hijab, and drank Heyi wine.

After drinking the Heyi wine, the groom left first to accompany the guests to eat the "makeup-changing soup and fruit". The bride changed her make-up in the bridal chamber, took off her phoenix crown, combed her hair, and wore a robe.

The groom waits for a while, then goes to the new house to pick up the bride, and together they return to the main hall to pay homage and meet the elders.

The elders who are greeted by the newlyweds all give a greeting gift.

After the greeting ceremony, it is time to "wait for the banquet".

The banquet is just a wedding etiquette. The banquet is held in the middle hall, the bride sits at the head of the table, and four women accompany the banquet. The bride only eats a little.

After the banquet, the bride accompanies the bride to the kitchen for "circumcision", which means cooking. Afterwards, after the ceremony, the bride returns to her bridal chamber to rest.

Afterwards, the Zhou family held a luncheon.

At noon, the bride does not sit at the table, but the groom does. The Zhou family drinks with the bridegrooms from the Ji family and takes turns toasting.

The group of people who were getting married from the Ji family were all drunk.

The Zhou family also has a main banquet in the evening for "Helang wine". The bride also sits at the banquet and has to pour wine for the elders table by table.

After the dinner, the guests invited by the Zhou family went to the new house and accompanied the newlyweds in the "Three Drinks and Easy Drinking" ceremony. After each drink, the newlyweds took a sip and exchanged glasses. The two congratulators drank and congratulated the groom while drinking.

After the three drinks and the wedding ceremony, the guests went to the wedding house.

Wu Shao, Ren Shao, Jiang Shao and others were obviously single and were not afraid of being retaliated by Zhou Shao when they got married. They watched the entire ceremony and even made trouble with the groom.

They just joined in the fun themselves, and even forced Miss Le to join in the fun.

Classmate Le Xiao was originally very happy to watch the ancient ceremony, but when she was forced to have a wedding ceremony, she could only risk her life to accompany the gentleman, thinking that she would just join in the fun, but who knows that every time those guys are captured by the bride and groom, she will be captured again. Pushed out to the rescue.

The little girl who was forced to take the post sang four or five songs to celebrate the bridegroom and wrote three poems. She was frightened and escaped through the window when the guys weren't paying attention.

The little Lolita who escaped by jumping out of the window hurried back to the Zhou family hall. She saw the elders of the Zhou family chatting and laughing with the four elders of the Ji family. They sat down aside and drank tea.

Ancestor Zhou looked at the little girl with rosy cheeks and asked with a smile: "Why did the little girl come back so soon? Isn't it fun to have a wedding ceremony?"

"Young Master Jiang Shaohua and those handsome guys are so unkind. They make trouble for the newcomers and always push me to take the blame when they encounter problems. I don't dare to stay any longer.

Otherwise, in the future, Young Master Zhou and Mrs. Zhou will think that it is me who is making trouble, and she will also go to the wedding ceremony when my brother and I get married. Wouldn't it be too unfair for me? ”

Le Yun drank another cup of tea and complained about the ruthlessness of Young Master Jiang and others.

The head of the Zhou family and others laughed heartily.

The little Loli ran away, so Wu Shao and others stopped and just watched the excitement.

People who are making trouble at the new house are also restrained and stop making trouble until midnight.
