The Book of Raising Children by Houmen

Chapter 265 I still remember (1)
The sound of gongs and drums outside stopped for a moment, and Zhao Jing heard Xu Si'an said: "Why don't you come back to the Hou's Mansion with us, my lord, and have a glass of wedding wine?"

Zhao Jing lowered her eyebrows after hearing this, she really wanted Zhou Yi to pass by in her heart, what about high position and weight, what about being under one person and above ten thousand people, he must be lonely now, even when she fell in love with him and killed him at first That person is gone too.

"The king still has official duties, so I won't go." However, Zhou Yi's refusal did not surprise Zhao Jing. She sighed in the sedan chair and began to slowly adapt to the ups and downs of the sedan chair.

From Gulou Street to Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion, it usually takes more than half an hour to walk, but today it took a full hour to walk staggeringly.Zhao Jing was not used to sitting in a sedan chair, and after being shaken like this for a long time, she felt a little dizzy. Fortunately, the sedan chair stopped at the door, and Xi Niang came to help her get off the sedan chair.

Zhao Jing was supported all the way across the main gate of Marquis Wu'an Mansion, bypassed the screen wall, entered the Yi Gate, and came to the large courtyard of the outer courtyard.The whole journey was full of gongs and drums, and various words of congratulations were heard. Xu Si'an, just a few steps in front of him, thanked the guests with a smile.

Xi Niang whispered in her ear, "The bride is coming in!"

Zhao Jing stepped over the one-foot-high threshold in the main hall, and finally stopped.A long time ago, Zhang's mother came forward with a smile and said to Mrs. Xu: "Old lady, this old slave helped you welcome your daughter-in-law back."

"That's good, that's good! I also said that the sedan chair is moving too slowly, and I just want to go out and see for myself!" Mrs. Xu said with a smile.

Zhao Jing couldn't see Mrs. Xu's expression at the moment, but she was very happy to hear her tone.Fortunately, the bridal sedan chair had already arrived at this time, otherwise the old lady would welcome the son to the door when he got married. This would really be No. 1 in the capital.

Zhang's mother laughed and said, "There are a lot of cars outside, and today is an auspicious day, and there are other families on the way to greet the relatives, and the old lady is a little impatient!"

Here, Zhang’s mother’s words were just for fun, and Xi Niang over there smiled and said: “Old lady, don’t be so happy, just sit down and let the bride and groom see the ceremony. The ceremony has not yet been completed! The daughter-in-law is still halfway Go through the door!"

Mrs. Xu laughed again when she heard the words, and she kept scolding herself: "Look at my memory, I'm so happy, I haven't worshiped the world yet!"

After finishing speaking, the old lady happily sat on the armchair in the high hall, waiting for Zhao Jing and Xu Si'an to salute her.

Following Xi Niang's report and singing, Zhao Jing was supported to kneel down and then stood up. There was a futon placed by Xi Niang on the ground, and she didn't feel any difficulty when kneeling. Feeling the phoenix crown on her head being lightly touched, she heard Xi Niang laughing from the side and said: "Licheng, send it to the bridal chamber!"

Only hearing the noisy noise in the hall, Zhao Jing was helped by Xi Niang into the bridal chamber again.

After uncovering the happy handkerchief, drinking the henna wine, and looking at the candies filled with higo fruit, Zhao Jing blushed and sat on the edge of the red bed, lowering her head to listen to Xi Niang saying auspicious words from the side: "Now it's a gift. It's done, just wait until you enter the bridal chamber tonight, and give birth to a fat son and grandson for the old lady next year."

The Xu family didn't have any particularly close relatives in the capital, so most of the people watching the excitement in the room were elderly women and daughters-in-law in the Hou's mansion. After hearing this, they all followed suit, and one of them said to Zhao Jing Say a word of auspiciousness.When it was Mama Zhang's turn, Mama Zhang felt a little emotional. Although she thought that Zhao Jing could enter the door, it was just a fantasy. She never thought that Zhao Jing could really enter the door. Now she is sitting on the edge of the bed For the newlyweds who were sitting, Ms. Zhang was too excited to speak.

"This old slave pays respects to Mrs. Hou. I wish Mrs. Hou and Mrs. Hou will be as good as each other, harmonious and beautiful, have a precious son early, and have a full house of children and grandchildren!"

Zhao Jing's face became hot when she heard this, and she reached out to help Zhang's mother get up, then raised her head and swept across the servants of the Hou's mansion, and turned to look at Xu Si'an.

At this time, the ceremony was completed, Xi Niang had already exited the room, and the banquet was about to start outside, the women had fun for a while, and they all went out to greet the guests.Soon there were only Zhao Jing and Xu Si'an left in the room, and the sound of gongs, drums and firecrackers outside was also far away.

Zhao Jing sat with her head down on the mahogany carved bed covered with big red sheets, and her eyes fell on the purple-colored auspicious cloud pattern boots on Xu Si'an's feet. He moved a few steps forward and sat beside Zhao Jing. When he got down, his big palm suddenly stretched out and covered the back of Zhao Jing's hand that was placed on his knee in a regular manner.

"I'm going out to greet the guests, and I'll come back later, you wait for me in the room." Xu Si'an usually spoke seriously, but at this time his words were soft, so Zhao Jing nodded and saw him get up When he was about to leave, he stood up again and sent him to the door, and whispered: "Alcoholism hurts your body, don't drink too much."

This sounded like an old couple. Xu Si'an turned around and couldn't help laughing. With a wave of his long arm, he took Zhao Jing into his arms and whispered in her ear, "Don't worry!" , I still remember, you and I want a bridal chamber tonight!"
