Chapter 269: Wedding Anniversary (1)

"Second kneel at the high hall, worship."

Banhua turned her head subconsciously, but the thick veil blocked her view, and all she could see was a dark red.

There was a red silk that was not too long or too short between her and Rong Xia. She could hear the chatter and laughter around her, but she couldn't see anything, which made her a little uncomfortable. Suddenly a hand held hers. This hand was warm and dry, like firewood in winter, warming Banhua's heart.

She pursed her lips and knelt down slowly.

When she stood up, this hand held her waist.

"Husband and wife pay their respects."

Slowly releasing the hand on his waist, Banhua turned around and slowly bowed towards the opposite side of him.

She moved very slowly, and the noise around her also quieted down, she even heard the clashing sound of hairpins on her body.

"Send it to the bridal chamber!"

According to the rules, Mrs. Quan Fu accompanied the bride into the bridal chamber at this time, and the groom stayed outside to entertain the guests. He could not return to the house until nightfall, where he would cover the bride and drink a cup of wine.

But Rong Xia made a big gift to the guests present, and before everyone could react, she reached out to hold Ban Hua's wrist, and together with Mrs. Quan Fu, she helped the bride to the inner room. The guests were taken aback for a moment, and then burst into laughter.

Some said that Mr. Rong loved the bride, and some joked that the groom was impatient, but no matter how you joked, it was true that no one stopped the groom.

"What does it mean to love the bride? This is to love the bride. Master Rong is really considerate."

"Maybe it's because the bride is afraid of going alone?"

After the female family members met, they were envious and jealous, and when they thought about their own men, they felt that they were full of flaws, and there was not much to like.

"Be careful with the steps." Rong Xia helped Ban Hua into the bedroom. The palace was very luxuriously built. The bedroom was inlaid with a whole piece of suet white jade. This jade was carved with lifelike peonies, rich and beautiful. .

But Rong Xia was not in the mood to care about this piece of jade at the moment, all his attention was on Ban Hua.

"Master Hou, you..." The two Quanfu wives looked at Rong Xia and felt a little embarrassed. Let the groom go out, it seems that they are meddling in their own business, but if they don't, it's a bit against the rules.

"I'll go out later," Rong Xia helped Banhua to the bed, worried that the peanut longan candies and other things under the quilt would disturb her, so she shook the things and swept them aside, "Sit."

As soon as Banhua sat down, Rong Xia took off her shoes, hugged her to the bed, put a soft pillow behind her, and covered Banhua with the red quilt, "It's cold at night, sit down for a while , I’ll come over after I go out to toast two glasses of wine.”

"Master Hou..." Mrs. Quanfu saw that Rong Xia had completely changed the bride's abdomen, both of them were dumbfounded. What kind of rule is this? How can the bride take off her shoes and go to bed before the groom?

There are many unwritten customs in the wedding ceremony. For example, the bride cannot step on the groom's shoes. If she steps on it, it means that the woman is a shrew. In addition, the groom cannot let the bride lie on the bed first, otherwise the bride will suppress the groom for the rest of his life, and the groom can only do a little low in front of the bride for the rest of his life.

"It's fine to lie on it for a while. How can you bear it by just sitting in the cold winter?" After making sure that she pressed the quilt tightly so that the cold air would not enter the quilt, she took the hand warmer from the maidservant and put it in the classroom. In Hua's hand, "The servants you brought are all guarding the door. If there is any inconvenience, just ask them to come in and serve you. Don't wrong yourself."

Banhua reached out and grabbed his wrist: "You drink less later."

"Okay." Rong Xia smiled, "I won't keep you waiting."

Ban Hua's bright red lips lifted up, but she didn't speak.

Rong Xia looked at her Danko-dyed hand, squeezed it lightly, and then got up and walked out.

Ban Hua listened attentively until the sound of footsteps disappeared, then she leaned on the soft pillow, squinted her eyes and fell asleep. She was called up early this morning. She is so sleepy now that she can only rely on resting her mind.

Seeing this, the two Quan Fu wives had no choice but to retreat out lightly. They looked at the maids guarding outside, and turned to go to the side hall.

In order to meet the occasion, the two Quanfu wives are wearing purple skirts today, one with the word "Fu" embroidered on their clothes, and the other with the "Shou" character embroidered on their clothes. They have also been Quanfu wives for other newcomers, but they have never seen any of them. That's how families get married.

"There are no elders in Marquis Cheng'an's family, so it's normal not to know some rules," Mrs. Quan Fu, who is in purple clothes, said, "These old rules, if you believe in them, you will be good, if you don't believe them, you will be nothing, so don't take it too seriously."

Mrs. Quanfu, Ziyi Shouzi, smiled and said: "We are just Mrs. Quanfu. As for the matters between the young couple, it has nothing to do with us."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and they decided to forget this matter with a tacit understanding.

When the guests saw Rong Xia coming out, they all gathered around, offering toasts, congratulating congratulatory congratulations, and there was a posture of not letting Rong Xia down. It's a pity that the accompanying guests around Rong Xia were too strong, and they blocked many toasts. As a result, Rong Xia was not drunk, but the guests and accompanying guests were drunk for a long time.

After some literati got drunk, they recited a few specious poems. They didn't know whether they were congratulating the newcomers or remembering their own emotions. Anyway, in this palace where the emperor once lived, these guests had a great meal .

"Master Rong, you have married such a beautiful woman, I wish you and your bride love to the end, and your children and grandchildren will be full." Liu Banshan raised his wine glass, walked up to Rong Xia and said with a smile, "I will do it first!" For your respect, Lord Hou, you can do as you please."

"Thank you." Rong Xia blushed slightly, and he drank the glass of wine in one gulp, "Master Liu, please sit down."

Liu Banshan filled the wine for Rong Xia before returning to his seat and sitting down.

"Master Liu," a colleague next to him looked at Liu Banshan enviously, "You actually have friendship with Lord Rong." These people, who are able to come to this banquet, already feel that they have face, how can they let the groom Can the officer accompany them for a drink?

"Earlier, because of the assassin case of Mr. Jing Ting, Liu had a relationship with Lord Rong." Liu Banshan smiled humbly, "Liu did not expect that Lord Rong would give Liu some face like this."

"Oh..." The people at the same table suddenly realized, how could they forget this matter, this case dragged Mr. Shi into the water, so that his status in the court plummeted, and he was no longer the same as before. , how could they forget about this?
