Farmer’s Stepmother’s Skillful Farming

Chapter 849 Meeting Ceremony

On the day of the wedding, the entire county was decorated with lanterns, gongs and drums, and it was very lively.

The Lu family was well off, and Lu Jingyan had only one younger sister, and most of the family property was earned by Lu Wenqing. When Lu Jingyan prepared the dowry for Lu Wenqing, he spent all his money.

  It is truly Shili Hongzhuang.

As for the Gu family, Gu Xiuwen did not want to wrong Lu Wenqing, so he worked **** the marriage. The clan elders of the Gu family were also very dedicated to Gu Xiuwen's marriage and gave them many suggestions.

  Generally speaking, this marriage can be said to be the most grand marriage in Zeng Yin County.

The merchants in Zeng Yin County, on the one hand, congratulated Gu Xiuwen and Lu Wenqing on their wedding, and on the other hand, they were also willing to seek good luck, so they each selected a few suitable foods, pastries, melon seeds, peanuts, etc., and took them A bamboo basket covered with a big red cloth was placed at the door, allowing people who came and went to help themselves to the meal, and everyone felt happy together.

 Some stores even take advantage of this time to offer discounts and give out gifts, just to have fun together.

 The county town is lively, and so is the Gu family.

There was an endless stream of people congratulating and congratulating the guests, and it was not until late at night that the guests gradually dispersed.

Gu Xiuwen and Lu Wenqing, who were already exhausted and falling apart, drank Hexin wine in the wedding room as a ceremony, and then sent Forsythia and the others to prepare some porridge and side dishes to cushion their already hungry bellies.

 Gu Xiuwen knew that on the day of the wedding, for the sake of etiquette and etiquette, women were not allowed to eat or drink. They stayed there for a whole day. He also knew that Lu Wenqing must be starving at this time. After she took off her headdress for a while, he hurriedly helped her pick up the food.

Afraid that the minced meat porridge was too hot to taste, I just took a spoonful and blew on it. When it was no longer hot, I brought it to Lu Wenqing's mouth.

"I'll do it myself." Lu Wenqing blushed with embarrassment.

"Serving the lady is what a husband should do." Gu Xiuwen laughed and joked, "It's better for the lady to get used to it earlier in the future."

Lu Wenqing lowered her eyelashes, blushed slightly and swallowed the mouthful of minced meat porridge, "Thank you, sir."

"You still call me Sir?" Gu Xiuwen raised his eyebrows.

 “Mr. Gong…”

Lu Wenqing’s face looked more like an apple when highlighted by the red candle next to her.

 The dragon, phoenix and red candles were burning until dawn.

 The house is filled with bright red colors, which look even more dazzling under the morning light.

When Forsythia was waiting for the maid to clean up, she looked at the messy clothes in the room, looked at each other, hid the smile in her eyes, and just lowered her head to do her work.

Lu Wenqing's face turned slightly red and her whole body ached. She only went to take a shower, wash and dress.

 On the first day of marriage, it is said that one has to pay homage to the parents-in-law and the elders.

 But Gu Xiuwen's parents had passed away long ago, so he only went to the outer house to meet a few elders of the Gu family who came to preside over the wedding.

The elders are also kind and kind. Although they think Lu Wenqing is the daughter of a merchant, her brother is already a scholar. He has also cured his leg disease and has achieved success in the imperial examination. Moreover, Lu Wenqing herself is also well-educated, dignified and virtuous, so she feels very good. satisfy.

After Gu Xiuwen and Lu Wenqing served tea and kowtowed, each of them was given a piece of calligraphy, painting, ornaments, etc., which was regarded as a gift for the bride to change her words after meeting.

After leaving this ceremony, someone in the inner house sent word that breakfast was ready, and Gu Yunxi had been waiting in the house for a long time.

Lu Wenqing is married to Gu Xiuwen and is Gu Yunxi's stepmother. Gu Yunxi wants to formally meet her stepmother.

Gu Xiuwen and Lu Wenqing entered the main hall of the inner house. Gu Yunxi was full of joy, but he did not pounce on them like a monkey as usual. Instead, he pursed his lips and smiled and said, "My daughter has met her father and mother."

 Then he bowed respectfully. "Get up quickly." Lu Wenqing didn't wait for Gu Yunxi to finish bowing, stretched out her hand to help her up, took the things that had been prepared from Forsythia and gave them to Gu Yunxi, "I know you like to eat, this is one of the two Shunyi Restaurants in the county. As a family, I will give her to you, and you will have endless pastries from now on."

"Child, why are you giving her a shop?" Gu Xiuwen stopped her.

Especially this Shunyi Zhai, which was rebuilt by Lu Wenqing through all possible means, continuing the name given by Lu Shunyi.

  It can be said that Shunyizhai is of great significance to Lu Wenqing.

"It's because of the children that every family needs these things." Lu Wenqing smiled and stuffed the box containing the land deed and house deed into Gu Yunxi's hand, "I have a shop in my hand, and I save the income every year. It can be used as personal money and is convenient to spend. ”

 “The little girl’s family should be rich, she should have money in her hands, and she should be confident in whatever she does.”

 And it was precisely because Shunyizhai had a special meaning to her that she wanted to give the most precious thing to Gu Yunxi.

 She really likes Gu Yunxi.

 Lu Wenqing did not say these two words in her heart, but Gu Yunxi understood and nodded, "The elder is a gift that cannot be declined. Since my mother loves me so much, my daughter will accept it shamelessly."

“This is a gift I gave to my mother. I wonder if she likes it?”

Gu Yunxi brought the things to Lu Wenqing.

They are a pair of jade pendants. They are made of mutton-fat white jade, with a transparent color and a warm texture. They are carved into the shape of mandarin ducks and look very delicate.

“This jade pendant is so beautiful.” Lu Wenqing happily accepted it with both hands, “I like it very much, thank you Yunxi.”

"As long as mother likes it." Gu Yunxi grinned, her little face as bright as the sun at this time.

 “Hurry up and eat.”

The servants had already laid out the food. Gu Xiuwen took a seat and urged the mother and daughter to sit down quickly.

Lu Wenqing first pulled a stool for Gu Yunxi. After she sat down, she sat down and used chopsticks to help Gu Yunxi pick up some of her favorite dishes.

Gu Yunxi did not refuse, just thanked him and ate his meal sweetly.

 The family of three had breakfast happily.

 After eating, Gu Yunxi went to play in his yard first, while Gu Xiuwen was preparing to accompany Lu Wenqing to get acquainted with his home.

 Look around, recognize the way, and let the servants recognize the Lord.

Lu Wenqing smiled and said, "I want to go and pay homage to Yunxi's mother, is that okay?"

Gu Xiuwen didn't expect that Lu Wenqing would have this idea on the first day after they got married. After hesitating for a moment, he nodded, "Okay, I'll take you there."

Gu Xiuwen's wife, the Meng family, is enshrined in the small ancestral hall in the backyard. Gu Xiuwen will come to offer incense every first and fifteenth day of the lunar month.

 The small ancestral hall is usually looked after by servants and kept clean and tidy.

Gu Xiuwen led Lu Wenqing, knelt down and worshiped, and then placed a new stick of incense for Meng.

 After staying for a while, the two of them left the small ancestral hall and summoned their servants to meet Lu Wenqing as originally planned.
