Chapter 317 Together tomorrow

What is the most engaging part for tourists and fans in this Tang Dynasty wedding show?

That can only be a "wreck car".

What is a car wreck?

According to the original ceremony, when the bride's "wedding car" arrives at the groom's door, the groom rides around the car three times and distributes joy to the neighbors who come to watch and congratulate.

But this kind of situation can only happen in TV series.

The reality is... let’s put it this way, have you ever seen someone in the news stopping a wedding car to ask for money or cigarettes?

This is the actual execution mode of the barrier car. No matter ancient or modern.

Yes, the tradition of blocking wedding cars has been around since the Tang Dynasty.

However, at the beginning, everyone just wanted to get some luck.

By the time of Emperor Suzong of the Tang Dynasty, the custom of blocking wedding cars was almost the same as that of blocking wedding cars and making news today. This caused everyone to complain. After all, the gangsters back then were much more arrogant than people today.

Anyway, in the end, the imperial court directly issued an order to ban this bad habit. But it is of no use. The people who should be the people to block the car are still the car.

At this time, Xu Chuan was riding on a horse. He looked around at the tourists who shouted, "I, the fan, are robbing...no, I am robbing money!" He was very glad that he had prepared enough gifts, and there were two large carriages behind him. .

Of course, money and wine are definitely not given when you are happy, and cigarettes are even more nonsense. This is in the "Tang Dynasty", so smoking is nothing.

A lot of wedding candies were prepared, and these were distributed together with Xu Chuan's specially customized commemorative AR album card in his wallet.

On the other side, Lin Mengying, who was sitting in the two-horse "wedding car", heard the congratulations coming from outside and wanted to open the curtain and peek out.

But considering that I had to follow ancient etiquette, I held back.

In the eyes of others, this is a "wedding show", but she really regards this as a wedding.

I don’t know how long the commotion lasted, but a voice of “Please ask the bride to get off the sedan” came. The door of the sedan was opened, and Shen Pingan, who was dressed like Zhou Xun in "Da Ming Palace Ci", poked his head in and whispered with a smile. :"sister in law."

Hearing the word "sister-in-law", Lin Mengying couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth and said "Hey" in a happy tone.

"Get off the car, sister-in-law." Shen Pingan continued to say with a smile.

"Okay." After hearing this, Lin Mengying stood up and slowly got out of the car with the help of Shen Pingan.

In fact, no matter in ancient times or in many modern places, a bride's feet are not allowed to touch the ground from the time she gets married until she enters the bridal chamber.

In many places, when the bride leaves her natal home, her younger brother carries her in the car. When they arrive at the groom's house, the groom will carry them to the worship hall, where the floor will be laid in advance.

Naturally, the Tang Dynasty could not cling to the past.

After Lin Mengying got out of the car, the "ceremony music" specially composed by Shen Huajin began to play. When the music started, special people alternately put down the rectangular straw mats for Lin Mengying to walk on.

This is called "passing the seat", also called "turning the seat".

As for Shen Pingan, who had just picked up Lin Mengying from the car, as the only unmarried female dependent of the Xu Chuan family, she followed Lin Mengying and followed her "footprints".

This behavior is for the sake of happiness, and it was called "the trace of the bride" in ancient times.

When they reached the house, Ning Kaijun, as the wedding master of ceremonies, shouted: "Put the saddle on!!"

As he finished speaking, a saddle was placed at Lin Mengying's feet, and Ning Kaijun said again: "The bride is riding on the saddle, may she be blessed with good fortune and peace!"

Seeing this, some viewers in the live broadcast room suddenly commented.

[Is this thing the same as crossing a brazier? 】

[Speaking of this, I suddenly remembered that one year I attended a friend’s wedding, and the bride stepped over the brazier and burned her skirt]

[From this point of view, it is safer to cross the saddle]

[Your focus is really weird]

Amid the discussion among the audience, Xu Chuan and Lin Mengying walked in side by side.

At this time, a large Qinglu tent was set up in the house. This tent was also called the "Baizizhang" and was used for worship.

In the Tang Dynasty, there was no worship in heaven and earth, nor in the high hall. Worshiping uncles and aunts was always done on the second day.

Therefore, there is only one link in Qinglu worship hall, which is the so-called "husband and wife worshiping each other". The specific process is that the woman bows first and the husband returns the bow.

Of course, in order to make the process look richer and the effect better. In terms of design, after discussion, the tent-raising and worship hall were combined.

At the same time, in order to prevent some people who were knocked unconscious from looking for trouble. The process in which the woman bows first and the husband returns the bow is directly changed to the opposite bow.

At this time, in Baizi's tent, Xu Chuan was on the left, and Lin Mengying was on the right, still covering their faces with fans. They stood facing each other, waiting to worship.

Ning Kaijun, the officiant next to him, colored another middle-aged woman in ancient costume. The woman held a lacquer box, which contained dried fruits such as dates, peanuts, longans, lychees, walnuts, lotus seeds, and copper coins. .

When the "ceremonial music" created by Shen Huajin reaches its climax.

The woman grabbed a handful of colorful fruits, threw them to the east, and shouted: "To the east of the tent, the light is full of embroidered hibiscus. I can't clearly see the beauty of the fairy, but I know which peak it is in Wushan."

As the first line of the woman's confession song fell, Ning Kaijun next to him said: "Bye~~"

Hearing this "Blessing", Xu Chuan and Lin Mengying immediately bowed to each other.

"Xing~~" Ning Kaijun's voice came again.

Xu Chuan and Lin Mengying stood up following the sound. Although at this time, due to the fan covering their faces, neither party could see the other's face.

But both of them intuitively told themselves that the other person was suppressing a smile.

It was in this suppressed laughter that another handful of fruits were scattered to the west, and then the woman's voice came again: "To the west of the tent, the fragrant wind is blowing on the ground and the auspicious clouds are low. The peaches are flying to the shore with red rain, and I am beginning to believe Taoyuan Road is not lost.”

"Bye~~"

"Xing~~"

It was another greeting. I don’t know why, but the two people who were still suppressing their laughter just now began to feel like they were about to laugh. They gradually began to leave. What replaced it was a state of seriousness.

"South of the tent, pearls and jade are always in the pool. Thousands of flowers are about to cage Xizi. This evening, Qingluan is trying to make a fool of himself."

"Bye~~"

As the sound of the third prayer came and the background music played, the expressions of Xu Chuan and Lin Mengying changed. Obviously, the two of them were much more serious at this time.

"Xing~~"

Straightening up again, Xu Chuan raised his eyes and looked at the beauty in front of him who was covering her face with a fan. For some reason, he felt a sour feeling in his heart.

"The tent is spread to the north, and Fu Fen doesn't know anyone when she first comes. Red and green surround her to protect her, and she smiles and takes off her fragrant scarf to pay homage to Yao."

"Bye~~"

The fourth bow came, and an inexplicable feeling rose from the soles of Xu Chuan's feet and went straight to his forehead.

At this moment, he suddenly realized the changes that the sense of ritual brings to people. This is something that is indescribable but really exists.

"Xing~~"

After four prayers, the song of "Chanting the Tent" continues under the background of music, first spreading all over the north, south, west and east, and then up, down, front, and center.

In the "Sagging Song" with auspicious wishes and some couple's affairs. Xu Chuan stood there, his eyes never leaving the person in front of him who was about to become his wife.

Lin Mengying, who was on the other side of the fan, could vaguely see Xu Chuan's tender eyes through the tulle of the fan.

It is said that two people who are in love will cry easily when they look at each other.

In fact, there is no need to look directly at each other. As long as you feel that the other person is looking at you, the warmth will be enough to flow through your body and into your eyes.

Perhaps sensing Lin Mengying's state at this time, Xu Chuan gently shook his head at her, signaling her not to cry.

Keren is a strange animal. This shake of the head made Lin Mengying's already uncontrollable tears fall instantly.

Fortunately she stopped quickly.

She kept telling herself in her heart that she couldn't cry and her makeup would fade. She was the bride today and she had to look beautiful.

"The bridegroom and the bride perform the ritual of joining hands together~~" As the last five sentences of "The Account Song" ended, Ning Kaijun sang again.

"Book of Rites: Hunyi" says: "When the wife arrives, the son-in-law bows to her and lets her in. They are locked together and eat together, and they are drunk together."

These two ceremonies had to be performed in the bridal chamber, so after Xu Chuan heard this, he led Lin Mengying into the bridal chamber.

When they arrived at the bridal chamber, it was still the same pattern of men sitting on the left and women on the right facing each other. They sat on both sides of a table.

The family next to them brought two portions of the same dish for the two of them to eat, as a gift for sharing the prison.

After the two took a symbolic bite, someone brought over a gourd split in half. Although the gourd is in two halves, a red rope is tied around the stem of the gourd's head.

The two of them took another sip of wine.

Of course, what Xu Chuan drank was really high-quality liquor, while Lin Mengying drank sugar water. She was allergic to alcohol and really didn't dare to drink indiscriminately.

After drinking, the person next to him takes the gourd back and uses the red thread on the gourd to tie the two halves of the gourd together. This is called the ceremony of joining together.

It is worth mentioning that during this process, Lin Mengying kept her face covered with a fan.

At this time, a woman playing the role of Xu Chuan's family member said: "Madam, please stop fanning."

Hearing this, Lin Mengying shook her head slightly and did not take off the fan.

Ever since, the woman just covered her mouth and smiled at Xu Chuan: "Lang Jun, Madam is going to take a test on you."

Xu Chuan laughed loudly when he heard this, and then said: "Don't fan the paintings out of the curtains to cover up the talent on the spring mountain. If the reunion of the road is like the bright moon, there must be osmanthus flowers blooming in it."

This is a fan poem written by Li Shangyin. The meaning is easy to understand and I don’t need to explain too much.

At this time, Lin Mengying did not ask Xu Chuan to play another original song of her own like she did when she was putting on makeup.

After listening to the fan poem, she slowly put down the round fan in her hand.

As the round fan fell, Lin Mengying's eyebrows, almond-shaped eyes, rosy nose, and crimson lips appeared one by one in front of Xu Chuan's eyes.

shocked.

Xu Chuan was really dumbfounded now.

For a moment, he didn't know what words to use to describe Lin Mengying's beauty.

Not only Xu Chuan was dumbfounded, but Bai Tianyu who was standing behind him watching the excitement saw this face and couldn't help but bumped Du Wenyu next to him with his elbow and whispered: "Teacher Lin, is this too beautiful? !”

"Yes, you think so too! I was also amazed when I saw it over there." Du Wenyu nodded in agreement.

At this time, Lin Mengying suddenly felt a little ashamed when she saw Xu Chuan staring straight at her. She bit her lip lightly, lowered her eyes slightly to the right, avoiding Xu Chuan's gaze and whispered: " Don’t look at it.”

"Hahahahahaha." As soon as Lin Mengying's voice came out, before Xu Chuan could reply, the onlookers started laughing.

This laughter made Lin Mengying, who was already a little shy, blush even more. This added a bit of color to the extremely beautiful woman, and Xu Chuan couldn't stand it.

Dear mother, is this really my wife?

It was at this time that the live broadcast room was filled with barrages.

[Damn it, Teacher Lin’s appearance is really not bad. After waiting for so long, the wait is not in vain]

[It’s over, it’s over, Xu Laosan has really fallen into trouble now. I’m afraid he’s going to fake it and become in love because of the drama.]

[No one can stand this, how can you stand it? I can’t stand it anyway]

[Can anyone tell me whether the third brother is acting or having a real reaction?]

[Make it clear that this is a true reflection, eyes cannot deceive]

[When I think of such a beautiful woman liking women, my heart suddenly hurts]

[I'm different. I feel much better when I think that such a beautiful woman likes women. I can’t get it anyway, so other men had better not get it either]

[You are a person who knows how to think from different perspectives]

Amidst the noise of the live broadcast audience, Xu Chuan finally recovered from Lin Mengying's beauty.

At this time, the woman who had been slapped came forward and took a pair of scissors, and first cut a strand of Xu Chuan's real hair from the bottom of the back of his head. Then he cut a strand of Lin Mengying's hair from the end, which was also real hair.

Then he tied two strands of hair together with a red rope, put it in his purse and handed it to Lin Mengying.

When he handed it over, he muttered something: "Yi cut off Yun Huan, and Lang also parted his hair. Looking for a place where no one is around, we tied it into a knot of the same heart. You two are now a married couple. I wish you two hearts and the same mind. May you have many more years. May you be blessed and grow old together."

"Thank you." Lin Mengying still took the purse with a hint of shame and held it in her hand.

Xu Chuan also said thank you.

The wedding was already over at this time, so Ning Kaijun said: "It's done, everyone, come with me to the banquet."

After saying this, everyone began to leave, and Xu Chuan indeed set up a banquet in the name of a "final banquet" so that everyone could eat after taking off their makeup.

At the same time, when the live broadcast reached this point, it was cut off and started playing the video prepared in advance.

But the audience simply didn’t get enough.

[Wait a minute, is this the end? No, I always feel that a very important process is missing? 】

[There is indeed a very important process missing, which is called bride-making, which is also called bridal chamber making.]

[Let me go, how can such an important link be omitted? If it starts... no, it will cause trouble]

[Having trouble in the bridal chamber, making trouble in the bridal chamber, quickly switch back to having trouble in the bridal chamber]

It was impossible to make trouble in the bridal chamber. At this time, only Lin Mengying and Xu Chuan were left sitting side by side in the room.

"Are you tired?" Xu Chuan asked.

Lin Mengying nodded when she heard this, then shook her head and said, "I'm still a little bit unresponsive."

"You're still not finished, are you?" Xu Chuan chuckled.

"Yes." Lin Mengying turned to look at Xu Chuan with a smile, "What about you?"

Looking at Lin Mengying, who was as beautiful as a flower in the true sense, Xu Chuan did not answer her question, but said, "You look so beautiful today."

"Didn't I look good before?"

"It looks particularly beautiful today."

"Look at how stupid you are." Lin Mengying pursed her lips and smiled. After saying that, she looked around again, and then quickly pecked Xu Chuan on the mouth.

Feeling the drop of water, Xu Chuan couldn't help but said: "Can I not take off this makeup yet?"

"What do you want to do?"

"think."

"Tsk... not today." Lin Mengying shook her head and said.

"Why, shouldn't you enter the bridal chamber when you get married?" Xu Chuan asked in a low voice.

Lin Mengying looked at Xu Chuan angrily when she heard this, and then said in his ear: "Wait until tomorrow..."

"Tomorrow? Why tomorrow?" A possibility came to Xu Chuan's mind, which made his heart beat faster.

"Oh, it's just tomorrow... Let's go home together tomorrow."

As soon as these words came out, Xu Chuan's eyes widened and he looked at Lin Mengying with 50% surprise, 30% shyness and 92% surprise.

Just as she was about to speak, she saw Lin Mengying standing up with a red face and saying, "I'm going to leave first. You should go and rest early. There is another show tomorrow."

After saying that, he walked to the door, opened the door and called A Liu and Fu Wanwan.

As for Xu Chuan, he continued to look at Lin Mengying's back with wide eyes until she disappeared from sight.

After a long time, Cai Meng's arrival brought Xu Chuan back to his senses.

The first thing he said after coming back to his senses was: "Cai Cai, arrange the car, I have to go back to Shang Hai's house tomorrow no matter what."

"Ang, okay." Cai Meng was stunned for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

After talking about this, Xu Chuan went to the place where the "final banquet" was held and began to exchange glasses with the guests. Lin Mengying, who had taken off her makeup and changed her clothes, also came over.

This is a wedding banquet, but also a peer exchange banquet.

The night passed with everyone's laughter.

The next morning, Xu Chuan got up and rushed to "Xu's house".

On the opposite side is Qiu Yicheng, who also arrived at "Qiu House" in the morning.

There are some differences between the wedding ceremony of the Ming Dynasty and that of the Tang Dynasty. For example, there is no make-up process and there is no fanning process.

Because the bride had already begun to wear the hijab at this time, the fanning became a more familiar ritual of picking the hijab with a weighing beam.

"Sister, it's time to comb your hair." At two o'clock in the afternoon, Qiu Zhixia, who had already done her makeup, entered the room and said to Qiu Yicheng.

This combing of hair is just a ritual. Qiu Yicheng's hair is not long and she will need a wig later. In fact, Lin Mengying also used a lot of wig bags to achieve that look yesterday.

At this time, Qiu Yicheng was in a daze. She didn't sleep well last night, it could even be said that she didn't sleep at all.

I spent the whole night either chatting with Qiu's mother or watching Xu Chuan and Lin Mengying's wedding online.

Come to think of it, the Tang wedding and the Ming wedding were decided by drawing lots, and Qiu Yicheng got the Ming wedding first.

Therefore, she didn't have any resentment at all.

In fact, she just couldn't believe that this marriage really happened like this.

A few more minutes passed while Qiu Yicheng was in a daze. Qiu's mother, her aunt and her second aunt, including the grandma played by Tian Xiu'an, all entered the room.

Looking at Qiu Yicheng, who had already changed into her undergarments but had not yet put her hair up and put on makeup, Qiu's mother came forward with a comb on her hair and said in Xiangnan dialect: "Baby, sit down and I'll help you comb your hair."

All sitcoms and wedding shows were forgotten by Qiu Ma at this moment.

Hearing this old saying, Qiu Yicheng came out of her trance instantly. There was only one thought in her mind, and that was "I'm really going to get married."

When she thought of this, her eyes felt sore. After taking a few breaths, she sat up straight and looked at the polished glass-like bronze mirror in front of her, waiting for her mother to comb her hair.

I saw Qiu's mother standing behind Qiu Yicheng holding a horn comb. While combing her hair, she continued to chant in her hometown dialect: "Once you comb your hair, you don't have to worry about wealth."

With just this sentence, Qiu Yicheng felt that she couldn't hold herself any longer.

Also unable to hold back was Qiu Ma herself. Cry in marriage, cry in marriage. In the past, many people who got married cried from beginning to end.

"If you comb your hair with two combs, you will be free from disease and worry."

"Mom~" Qiu Yicheng couldn't help shouting when she heard this.

"Don't cry on this big day." Mother Qiu shook her head with red eyes, then took a comb and said, "comb it three times to the head, and you will have more children and live longer. If you comb it to the end, you will have more children." eyebrow."

After combing her hair, Qiu Ma stood back.

Aunt Qiu Yicheng took the thread and face-twisting powder and planned to hang her face.

Twisting one's face is also called opening one's face, and you probably hear it more often on TV. Even in modern times, in many places there is still a custom of getting married and twisting one's face.

Its main purpose is to roll the thin thread on the face to remove the fuzz on the girl's face and make the face look smoother and more delicate.

Generally, a woman only shows her face once in her life, and she does not hesitate to marry again.

Of course, face-twisting is now a beauty method in Southeast Asia, so this is not up for discussion.

According to the rules, a "full-blessed woman" is required to open the face. The so-called Quanfu woman refers to a woman who has parents-in-law, husband, and children. She is usually found among the elders of the family.

At this time, Qiu Yicheng raised her head slightly. The aunt first took the face-twisting powder and smeared it on her face. She used pearl powder to make face-twisting face, usually goose egg powder.

After applying the powder evenly, the aunt held one end with her left hand and bit one end in her mouth. At the same time, open the thumb and index finger of your right hand and wrap the thread around to create a triangular shape.

Then he started to roll close to Qiu Yicheng's face. Not only his face, but also his eyebrows and temples had to be neatly groomed.

With the aunt's operation, Qiu Yicheng's tears that she had been holding back finally fell out.

Mother Qiu stepped forward again and said, "This is a happy event, don't cry."

Qiu Yicheng shook her head when she heard this, and then took advantage of the opportunity to twist her face and said: "It hurts so much to pluck out the hair."

"Hahahahaha." As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of laughter, which diluted the slightly depressed atmosphere just now.

At the same time, Xu Chuan on the other side was preparing to welcome the bride.

In this way, about two hours later, Xu Chuan arrived at Qiu's house, also starting with the laying ceremony.

Then came the meeting with my father-in-law and mother-in-law.

At this time, Father Qiu was sitting on the Taishi chair, looking at Xu Chuan who was kowtowing to himself and Mother Qiu three times in front of him. He had thousands of emotions in his heart that he didn't know how to express.

Now that things have happened, Father Qiu has finally come to his senses.

What kind of bullshit does your daughter like both boys and girls at the same time? Basically, both his daughter and the girl named Lin have fallen in love with this person.

But after thinking about it, he could only pretend not to know, otherwise Qiu Ma would definitely jump in.

Thinking of this, after Xu Chuan stood up, Dad Qiu said with a complicated expression: "When my daughter marries you, you should be nice to her and don't bully her."

"You must obey your orders and never bully or let down." Xu Chuan replied solemnly.

"Go ahead, go ahead." Father Qiu didn't want to say anything more. There were so many cameras around him, and he was not a professional actor, so how could he remember so many lines.

According to Ming etiquette, after Xu Chuan paid homage to his parents-in-law, he went outside to wait for the bride to say goodbye to her parents alone before heading to the place of worship together.

Here, Dad Qiu asked Xu Chuan to wait outside first.

On the other hand, Qiu Zhixia quickly ran outside Qiu Yicheng's boudoir, knocked on the door, and then opened the door and went in.

As soon as he entered, he saw Qiu Yicheng sitting on the bed waiting to get married. Qiu Zhixia was stunned and said in a calm voice: "Sister, you are so beautiful today, you look like a fairy."

Hearing this, Qiu Yicheng smiled and did not reply.

But the aunt next to me asked: "Is it over over there?"

"Ang." Qiu Zhixia nodded upon hearing this, "It's time for us to go to the front hall."

As soon as he said this, Qiu Yicheng nodded and walked to the front hall accompanied by everyone.

After a while, Father Qiu and Mother Qiu were still sitting on the chair. Seeing Qiu Yicheng bowing in front of him, Father Qiu endured the sadness and said: "When I go to your house, I will never forget... Never forget...

When you go there, you should get along well with each other, don't be petty, and remember to discuss anything if you have anything to do, anyway... anyway..."

Father Qiu couldn't speak any more, so he turned to Mother Qiu and said, "It's up to you to speak."

Mother Qiu was still speechless. Looking at her daughter who was wearing a phoenix crown and harem and looking graceful and graceful, she took a few deep breaths and completely forgot all the lines she had originally prepared, such as "Thinking about it all night long, there is no disobedience." Er Jing.

In the end, thousands of words turned into one sentence: "Living a good life is better than anything else."

When Qiu Yicheng, who was kneeling below, heard this, her eyes felt sore and uncomfortable, and she began to bid farewell to her parents.

It takes four prayers for a woman to get married.

After praying, the person next to him immediately brought up the hijab. As soon as Qiu Yicheng put the hijab on, Qiu Zhixia's voice came to her ears again: "Sister, I will carry you out."

"Yes." Qiu Yicheng nodded, resisting the urge to cry, and then lay on her brother's back.

I don’t know if this is Mingli, but it is the etiquette of Qiu Yicheng’s hometown.

At this time, Xu Chuan, who was waiting next to him, watched Qiu Yicheng being carried on the sedan chair by Qiu Zhixia, took a deep breath, and then got on his horse.

"Get up the sedan!!!"
