Chapter 1074 Marriage
Seeing his daughter's disbelieving look, Xian Dengkui said helplessly:
"Besides, your father is already a few years old, and I look like this, do you think people will be interested in me?"
"Then what is she here for?" Xian Yi had just arrived and had not heard their previous conversation, so she asked curiously.
"She's here to get information."
"To get information?" Xian Yi asked curiously, "To be remembered by someone like this, that person must be no ordinary person. Who is he?"
"Haha, he's just a poor boy pretending to be rich, nothing!" It was obvious that Xian Dengkui didn't want to say it.
"Dad, you say it, you say it!" Xian Yi shook Xian Dengkui's arm and used her unique skill of acting like a spoiled child. This trick always worked against her dad.
Thinking of his subordinates' report that Lin Hao's courtyard was once mortgaged to his casino, and later repaid with interest, he said with some regret:
"It's this kid named Lin Hao. I don't know where he got rich recently. He also did a big business and made a lot of money!"
"He made more money in one sale than we make in two months, and I still have to pay the salaries of my people!"
"He works alone and all the money he earns goes into his own pocket. To be honest, even I envy him a little!"
Xian Yi also became interested after hearing this. She used to study journalism and had a special desire to explore curious things.
She even thought of the title: Why did the poor boy become so rich? Why did he attract the attention of the foreign woman? To know what happened next, please read today's morning paper.
Thinking of this, Xian Yi couldn't help but ask, "Dad, where does this Lin Hao live?"
"Why are you asking this?" Xian Dengkui asked with a frown, not understanding why his daughter was interested in this person.
"Just say it, just say it!" Xian Yi immediately resorted to the method of acting like a spoiled child.
"Okay, okay, stop shaking. My bones are all broken apart!" Xian Dengkui said helplessly:
"This Lin Hao lives at No. 56 Maoer Hutong, Qianmen Hutong!"
"I'm warning you, don't do anything rash. People who suddenly make a fortune must be no simple people. You'd better stay away from them." Xian Dengkui did not forget to admonish his precious daughter.
"Got it, Dad, you're so nagging, I'm going out to play!"
After Xian Yi left, Xian Dengkui felt that his little cotton-padded jacket suddenly went out, maybe she wanted to look for that boy?
So Xian Dengkui waved to the outside of the door, and then two people came in from the door, wearing suits and hats.
It’s been so hot today, I don’t know if I’ll die from the heat, but this outfit is quite eye-catching.
Some people these days wish they could bury themselves in the ground to prevent others from discovering them, but there are also some people who want to show off deliberately to create a sense of power for themselves and show that they are not easy to mess with.
Xian Dengkui ordered the two of them, "You two follow the young lady and protect her well!"
"Yes, boss!"
Xian Dengkui ostensibly runs a pharmaceutical company, of course, this is just his business on the surface.
In fact, his main business is still gang running. The casino where Lin Hao's father gambled and mortgaged is his property.
However, Xian Dengkui was worried for a long time. When his two subordinates came back, he found out that Xian Yi did not go to find Lin Hao as he expected, but went to play with her classmates.
······
On the other hand, when Elena left here, she no longer took a rickshaw.
Because she saw a lot of rickshaws nearby with the words "Xu Ji Rickshaw Shop" behind them.
After she walked for a while, she took a rickshaw and arrived at the Six Nations Hotel Club.
The Six Nations Hotel is not just a place to eat and drink, it can also provide accommodation, a bit like the prototype of the future Las Vegas hotel.
Since the hotel has six shareholders, belonging to exactly six countries, it is called the Six Nations Hotel Club.
Because of this background, most people don't dare to cause trouble here.
Elena returned to her room, had her luggage packed, and then sent to Lin Hao's courtyard.
She then checked out of the room. She had originally planned to move in after Lin Hao got married, but after hearing Xian Dengkui's information, she decided to move in earlier.
Firstly, if Lin Hao waits until he gets married before moving in, it will be too late. The bride will become suspicious and become more wary of him.
Because if we move in now, it will be too conspicuous.
The second reason is that when Lin Hao gets married the day after tomorrow, all his social networks will definitely come to celebrate. Then she will have the opportunity to find out Lin Hao's information and maybe even find Lin Hao's distributor.
When Lin Hao saw Elena again, he was a little surprised that she wanted to move in early. Lin Hao felt something was wrong.
Lin Hao originally thought that the other party would wait until tomorrow, or move in after he got married, but he didn't expect her to be so anxious.
In such an unusual situation, Lin Hao directly used his skills to spy on the other party's memory, and only then did he discover the other party's plan.
What was unexpected was that Elena had gone to Xian Dengkui in advance and bought relevant information about herself.
However, these are not the end of Lin Hao's worries. What Lin Hao is most worried about now is when the Bureau of Secrets will take action.
I have penicillin in my hand, and this matter must have spread. First, the Big Goose sent someone to get close to me, and then the Red Side also sent someone to contact me, the only one left was the Secret Service.
"I hope it's a beautiful girl!" Lin Hao smiled.
When the time came to the agreed time of twelve o'clock in the evening, Lin Hao went straight to the front yard and asked Elena to continue sleeping so as not to delay his own business.
At this time, Fuzi had already parked two carriages on the street behind the courtyard.
Seeing them coming, Lin Hao went straight forward to greet them and took them to move the medicines onto the carriage.
At the same time, Lin Hao will go to the prison to find Jin Hai today, ask about the specific situation of their comrades, and tell the other party about it in time.
Of course, it was also mentioned that Jin Hai admired them and was willing to help rescue them, which also showed his attitude.
This time, Lin Hao clearly felt the other party's vague defensive mentality, but it was normal when he thought about it.
Lin Hao had used his skills before and temporarily gained the other party's favor, so the other party told him everything.
But the other party was strong-willed. As soon as Lin Hao left, Fuzi reacted immediately. Coupled with the reprimand from her superior, she realized that something was wrong when facing Lin Hao.
Therefore, when he sees Lin Hao again, he will definitely be more alert than before.
This time, Fu Zi did not communicate much with Lin Hao except saying that his superiors agreed to temporary cooperation.
Lin Hao could also understand, and after completing the transaction, Lin Hao took the initiative to leave contact information and radio call signs with Fu Zi.
Then he returned to the central courtyard and fell asleep while holding the lovely young version of Qin Huairu.
······
The next morning, around 7 o'clock.
The early bird catches the food, and the early worm gets eaten.
Suddenly, there was a loud sound of music, and the birds seemed to be frightened, flapping their wings and flying away. Suddenly, many rickshaw drivers came to the gate of Lin Hao's yard, all of them were from Xu's rickshaw shop.
Old Master Xu also came, and there were some women on these rickshaws.
They all carried bamboo baskets in their hands, and in the baskets were things like scissors and red paper.
"Hey, old man, what are you doing today?" Lin Hao arrived at the door and welcomed Xu Yunnuo in.
"I knew you weren't prepared. You're getting married today, but look at your yard. It doesn't look festive at all. There aren't even any window decorations or red wedding characters. It doesn't look like a wedding at all."
"They said they were going to use a sedan chair to bring the girl home, but with the current decoration, there's no wedding atmosphere at all!"
"Oh, I was so focused on the eight-man sedan chair that I forgot about this!" Lin Hao reacted at this time.
There was no elder person or housekeeper at home to remind me, so I really forgot about this. Although Qin Huairu knew everything, she was still a girl who knew nothing, let alone these things.
"So, I'll bring some paper-cutting experts with me to sweep your yard and do some preparation work to add a festive feel!"
"Oh, I really have to thank you, old man!" Then Lin Hao said with emotion:
"So, having an old person in the family is like having a treasure. We have already prepared wedding clothes and a sedan chair!"
Lin Hao said embarrassedly that he had really overlooked this matter. Fortunately, it was not a big problem and could be remedied in time.
At this time, Xu Yunnuo said to everyone: "Let's start, ladies!"
Afterwards, these old women did not hesitate and each of them worked very quickly to help Lin Hao decorate the house.
In just one morning, the whole yard was indeed different from before.
Now it has become a sea of red, with not only various window grilles, but also Double Happiness and the like.
There was also a lot of red silk, but it was prepared by Lin Hao in advance.
At 3 pm, Lin Hao led a large wedding procession, carrying a sedan chair with music and drums, to Hufang Bridge.
The people from Xu's Carriage Company followed behind, pulling their rickshaws. Each of them had a red ribbon hanging on his chest.
There was a red Double Happiness pattern on each of the rickshaws, and the entire team was very large.
And at the front was Lin Hao, who was wearing a wedding dress and riding a tall horse.
The entire team moved at a moderate pace, and it took them more than an hour to get from Qianmen Hutong to Hufangqiao.
In ancient times, weddings were mostly held at dusk, followed by the wedding ceremony and the bridal chamber ceremony.
This is actually related to the origin of the word "wedding" as we know it now. The word "wedding" comes from "hunli", which means the ceremony at dusk, following the tradition of "morning welcoming and dusk walking", that is, marrying the bride in the morning and holding the wedding at dusk.
The ancients firmly believed that all things in the world follow the principles of yin and yang, with men belonging to yang and women belonging to yin.
Dusk is the time when day and night alternate and yin and yang come into harmony, and is considered the best time to get married.
This tradition was originally limited to the ancient Central Plains, but as the Han people moved south, this custom was also introduced to the south and has continued to this day.
However, this tradition has undergone some changes since it was passed down to the Republic of China. For example, Lin Hao and Mu Chunhua's homes are very close, so they usually set out in the afternoon and arrive at the bride's house in the evening to pick her up.
After arriving at Hubaoqiao, the team came to the door of the Mu family. Many children ran out to ask for wedding candies, and some asked for wedding money.
This money was all copper coins, which Lin Hao had prepared in advance and then scattered along the way.
As for the wedding candy, it is small pieces of candy made from maltose, wrapped in paper and scattered along the way.
At this time, not only children came to grab them, but even some adults couldn't help but pick up a few to take back.
Although the wedding was held in a traditional way, all the necessary procedures were followed, but some steps were omitted. For example, there was no barrier at the entrance.
In ancient times, people believed that good things come hard, so there were actually many obstacles along the way, and one even had to write poetry.
Of course, Lin Hao's place was not that complicated. After he knocked on the door, Mr. Mu opened it.
Then they went into the house, Lin Hao and Mu Chunhua offered tea to Grandpa Mu. The old man gave them some instructions before bidding farewell to his daughter.
Afterwards, Lin Hao took Mu Chunhua's hand and helped her into the big sedan chair. Then he rode a tall horse and went back with music and dance all the way.
The wedding procession returned to Maoer Hutong and the large sedan stopped at the door.
It was just dusk at this time, and because Lin Hao had no elders, the parents he paid homage to were the two wooden plaques that Lin Hao had prepared.
Afterwards, under the auspices of Mr. Xu and witnessed by all the guests, Lin Hao and Mu Chunhua were officially married after bowing to heaven and earth, bowing to their parents, and then bowing to each other.
After completing the ceremony, Mu Chunhua was sent to the bridal chamber.
If it were in ancient times, she would stay in the new house for the whole day and could not eat until the evening.
However, Lin Hao is not such a rigid person. After arriving at the bridal chamber, he lifted the red veil and took Mu Chunhua out to toast and introduce the bride to his network of connections.
The banquet was set up in the yard, in the front yard, middle yard and back yard.
The elderly and children were arranged in the backyard, while the middle yard was basically occupied by Lin Hao’s relatives and friends and Mu Chunhua’s relatives who came to send off the bride.
As for the front yard, it was a buffet for the nearby neighbors, which was definitely a grand occasion!
At this time, Jin Hai, Xu Tian, Lou Zhenhua, Lou Xiaoe, Dao Meilan and Jia Xiaoduo were all there.
Yan Zhensheng and his wife, Fuzi, and Wang Mantang and his wife also came, making it quite lively.
He didn't let Tielin come, and Tielin really didn't come. This is the best way, the less contamination the better.
There hasn't been a traditional wedding of this scale in Maoer Hutong in recent years.
"Congratulations, I wish you a long and happy life together..."
"Thank you, everyone, enjoy your meal."
The entire wedding banquet lasted until the evening in such a festive and harmonious atmosphere.
After everyone left the banquet, Lin Hao took Mu Chunhua back to the main room, then called Qin Huairu to come along, and set rules for them.
"From now on, you, Mu Chunhua, are the mistress of this family. All household affairs are left to you to manage!"
"Yeah!" Mu Chunhua looked at Lin Hao happily after hearing that.
Then Lin Hao said to Qin Huairu: "Huairu, from now on you will listen to your wife!"
"Just call me sister!" Mu Chunhua said with a smile.
