Chapter 478
The new house was also hurriedly packed and arranged, all the furniture was equipped with a full set, and everything was new. There is a red tent hanging on the bed, and the sheets and quilts are red embroidered with mandarin ducks and red lotuses. The mattresses and quilts are made of cotton, which is soft and comfortable. The round table is also covered with red embroidered tablecloths with golden tassels on the brows, the words Double Happiness in red on the cabinets, windows and doors, and a pair of brass candlesticks on the long table with dragon and phoenix candles...
Looking so happy.
All the people who have seen the new house are envious, saying that this country has to be well-off and relatively wealthy people to be able to prepare for this - even the wealthier may not be able to afford it! Don't say anything else, but the quilts that are spread and covered are available in the Lian family, regardless of the owner and the servants, and other families can't afford to buy them.
This made a lot of people in the village who were about to marry their daughters but didn't say they were very excited. Although they were servants, they were divided into three, six, nine, and nine classes.
For example, Wang Da, Li Da and the others, even if they have no ability, they will still be in charge in the future. Those who are promising and capable can do great things. It is still possible to buy a house and land outside, and to live a life with a big tree backing it is much better than the average family!
For example, someone like Wang Da now has two taels of silver a month, not counting clothes and daily food for the four seasons.
As the saying goes, marry a man, marry a man, dress and eat, marry a poor family without three meals, and have to serve the mother-in-law and manage the affairs of a large family. things to do.
Asking for grace in the future, or saving up money to redeem the deed of betrayal, and still doing things in her house, is it better than someone outside?
Therefore, whenever Steward Qin appeared in the village, more and more people were looking for him to say something nice. The gentleness in his attitude and the faint pleasing smile made Steward Qin very puzzled for a time.
Wang Da is very authentic. The two pieces of material and several pieces of silver jewelry given by Lian Fangzhou were all included in the betrothal gift. For twenty taels of silver, he bought the essential wine, sugar, square meat, and live goose, and added two more. Pieces of fine cloth, a silver collar, and the remaining ten taels of silver were exchanged for a pair of five taels of ingots, plus their own wages and rewards, and the ten taels were also exchanged for a pair of five taels of ingots, all of which were given to Zhang Xiuer as a betrothal gift. sent home.
Zhang Xiaojun and Mrs. Li laughed so hard that they didn't covet the son-in-law, but the son-in-law loves his daughter!
Thirty taels of silver is enough to marry a wife in the countryside and even hold a banquet, and it can be done decently!
Mrs. Li finally raised her eyebrows and spread it well in the village, which attracted the envy and praise of the three aunts and six women, who all said that her family Xiu'er was a lucky one.
That's what Li wanted.
Xiu'er has a beautiful face, and when she first came, some people in the village were eyeing her. A young man named Wang You once wanted to marry her, but his mother was very powerful, and she didn't look down on Zhang Xiu'er's background, so she met Li again. Shi was washing clothes by the river, pointing Sang and scolding Huai for a long time, making Li's eyes red with anger.
The relationship will naturally end.
Now that my daughter can marry a good man, she doesn't slap him hard! It's a pity that I didn't make that stupid marriage in the first place! Otherwise, my daughter will not fall into the fire pit!
In a blink of an eye, it was the second day of the first month of December. Lian Fangzhou told Aunt Zhang and Uncle Li, asking them to help with accommodation and let Zhang Xiuer marry from the Li family. Aunt Zhang and Uncle Li happily agreed.
The night before, Zhang Xiu'er and Mrs. Li stayed at Aunt Zhang's house.
Aunt Zhang's courtyard door and gate were also pasted with the words "Double Happiness" in red.
Early the next morning, a large group of people crowded the sedan chair to the door. Wang Da was wearing a new red bridegroom's robe, wearing a big red flower, and riding a tall jujube-red horse. With laughter, he picked up the bride from Aunt Zhang's house.
The sound of firecrackers, gongs and drums rang out in the sky, the crowd watching the lively chattering and laughter, and the frolic of children chasing horses and sedan chairs, made it very festive and lively.
Everyone knew that Lian Fangzhou had the intention to hold a big wedding for them, how could he not be funny? Almost the whole village followed the ceremony and attended the wedding.
The seats were all bought by Lian Fangzhou with the help of money. According to the local customs of eight cool and eight hot, it was very authentic, and a large yard was full of people.
Qiao Shi and Lian Li originally did not plan to attend the ceremony, but they always felt that their son was a scholar and would soon become an official. Unlike ordinary people, at the wedding of a servant of Lian Fangzhou's family, wouldn't they feel free to attend the ceremony? Lose your identity?
Lian Hai was also a little dissatisfied with Lian Fangzhou's high-profile behavior. He felt that she simply didn't understand the rules and did not discriminate between high and low. There are no regulations!
If he knew in advance, he would definitely dissuade her!
But now that everything has been done, it is useless to say anything else. Lian Hai heard that Sun Ming's family came with the ceremony. He didn't want to fall behind Sun Ming, so he also asked Qiao Shi and Lian Li to send two coins to the ceremony.
Qiao had to listen to her son and went reluctantly.
Seeing the scene was very festive and lively, Mrs. Qiao couldn't help but stay and watch it for a long time. She couldn't help but muttered maliciously in her heart: You are very active in hosting a happy event for the next person, I'm afraid you won't want to have this in your life It's been a day! I can only watch other people's fun and have a good time...
When it was time to sit down, Mr. Qiao saw the rich dishes with big fish and meat, thinking that he was following the ceremony, and he didn't eat for nothing, so he sat down and didn't rush back.
As for what can't lose her identity, she has already been thrown out of the sky at this time!
No surprise to Lian Fangzhou, that night Ah Jian climbed the wall and came to her room, hugged her from behind and the first words were: "Fangzhou, when will you marry me and be my bride? I really envy Wang Da..."
Lian Fangzhou was sweet in his heart, and smiled with his lips hooked. He wanted to make fun of him, "I envy Wang Da for not marrying Zhang Xiu'er", but he didn't say it.
Perhaps, she should also consider slowly letting the three of Lian Ze know about this, right? It's not good to scare them too suddenly!
Early the next morning, Wang Dabian and Zhang Xiuer specially served tea to Lian Fangzhou, which made Lian Fangzhou blushed, and everyone laughed when they saw it.
Lian Fangzhou drank the tea Zhang Xiu'er handed him almost in a daze, secretly thinking that it was fortunate that he had prepared a red envelope.
After giving the red envelope, Lian Fangzhou laughed again: "I'll give you seven days off, you can play wherever you want!"
go Go! For your honeymoon vacation!
Lian Fangzhou was waiting for the two of them to thank him for being grateful. Who knew these two would look at me and I would look at you. Zhang Xiuer tried to scout and asked with a puzzled smile, "Go, go play?"
