Chapter 408 was cut off halfway by Mr. Xiao.
Knowing that Yan Yongning married Mr. Lan Chuan's only daughter, the guests' original respect turned into worship.
In addition to giving gifts, each family also asked their female relatives to bring gifts to add makeup to Xiyue.
This puts Xiyue and Yan Yongning in a dilemma. Although adding makeup is not too expensive, it is not necessary to accept it or not to accept it.
I feel sorry for others if I don't accept it, and I feel guilty if I accept it. After all, it is usually close relatives or friends who come to add makeup. It is not expensive, but it can cover a lot of food for ordinary people.
In the end, it was Mr. Lan Chuan and Yan Zheqing who decided that from now on, their family would wrap up the couplets and the red characters "Fu" on their neighbors during the Chinese New Year.
The things that came out of their Yan family, even if they were not written by Mr. Lanchuan or Tanhualang himself, would still be good. Two generations of a family can be elected. How can they allow their descendants and family members to have poor writing skills? Maybe the descendants can still There is no guarantee that the number one pick will come out.
Naturally, everyone is willing to accept good things that are usually hard to ask for. This decision has brought the atmosphere of the engagement banquet to a new climax and made the relationship between neighbors more harmonious.
June 17th.
The Yan family and the Chen family returned home in fine clothes.
The village chief and clan members of Taohua Village had already gone back the day after the banquet at the new house, which was June 15th. They said they were going back first to help them organize the wedding banquet.
In addition to a few children, the Yan family who originally came together also went back together.
If they don't go back, they won't be able to prepare for many things.
Although the specific time of the wedding banquet has not yet been set, they also know that they cannot return home for too long. After the wedding event, they have to return to Beijing as soon as possible to wait for the imperial dispatch, so they cannot delay.
There were so many people coming to the wedding banquet held in Yanfu in the capital, and the scene was so lively that even when we returned to the countryside, there would be no small noise. All these things require someone to run errands.
This is not only a matter for the Yan family, but also a happy event for their entire Yan family and Taohua Village.
In the past, Taohua Village attracted the attention of the county government because of the double-case capital. Now, maybe people outside call Taohua Village Juren Village or Tanhua Village, right?
When the whole family went back together, in addition to Yaya, Sanlang, and Yuanbao, there were also many children traveling with them. I heard that they were returning to their hometown to hold a happy event, and the children who used to play together in the capital were also in Shunguo. The children who studied together in the government also came together.
However, the family members still did not accompany him. He said that he wanted to stay at home with his grandparents and parents.
Duke Shun and his wife didn't want her to go to Taohua Village at first. They were afraid that something might happen to her if she met the Yao family, and they were also worried that the people in the village would notice something fishy about her appearance.
Although the Yan family all said that the Yao family looked better than the Yao family, and they didn't look much alike, and even the clan members who came to the wedding banquet didn't see anything fishy, they were still a little worried.
Because there were too many children, twenty guards from Qingshan Villa were used for this trip.
However, I knew that the wedding banquet would be held in the capital at that time, and I didn't want to make too much noise. Except for the children, no adults from the aristocratic family and a few close friends went. Only seven or eight people from the Li family went as members of the bride's family.
Even so, plus the guards and servants, the number of people is quite large.
It had been a long time since I returned to my hometown, and I had to bring back a lot of gifts to distribute to my fellow villagers and relatives, so I also used ten carriages and twenty-five or six people on horseback.
Fortunately, it was summer. If it had been winter, the things would have been even more cumbersome, and I'd probably have to bring a few more cars.
After leaving Taohua Village for more than a year, it was finally possible to go back. There were so many friends traveling with her. Chu Chu was so happy that she couldn't sleep well the night before leaving.
This trip is very smooth and the road is very easy to walk. It is not like the snow and rain before, and there are no potholes.
The children chattered non-stop along the way, so that when they approached Qingliu County, they were all so tired that they fell asleep.
"Dong-dong-dong-dong, choking, long-dong-cang..."
The children were awakened from their deep sleep only when they heard the roar of gongs and drums and the bustling crowd around them.
"Grandma, what's wrong?"
When she opened her eyes, she found that she was being hugged gently by her grandma. She must have been afraid that she would be frightened when she woke up, and he even covered her ears with his hands.
The children were all confused and a little angry, but they were not awake enough. Naturally, they had no idea what was going on.
"We are about to enter the city. Mr. Xiao and many of his entourage are here to greet him personally. There are many people watching. They say they will be parading through the streets later."
"Where's grandpa?"
Only then did Chu Chu realize that her grandfather who was riding in the same car was missing, leaving only her grandma and a few friends.
"Everyone got off, including my fourth uncle and my sister-in-law. They all got off the bus."
Grandma Yan raised the car curtain to show them: "Why are there so many people? It's not like everyone from Qingliu County is here, right?"
"Yes, if you look further away, aren't the ones wearing red silk immediately the grandpa, the fourth uncle and the little uncle?"
Originally, Chu Chu and her grandma were in the first car, so they lifted the curtain and saw the ancient city gate.
Maybe it’s because I’ve seen too many tall city walls and gates in the capital. Now it seems that the city gate in Qingliu County seems much smaller than when I left. It’s just that the three characters “Qingliu County” written on it are clearer. It is also more elegant and free.
The fourth uncle on horseback was first in line, right under the city gate.
His expression and state were still the same as that day when the No. 1 scholar was parading through the streets. He looked high-spirited. Facing the people in his hometown, he was more confident and enthusiastic, and his smile was even stronger.
The only difference is the clothes on their bodies.
The second in line was my sister-in-law, followed by two others who were also riding horses and wearing red flowers. They were all students who went to Beijing to take the exam together last time. The last in the line was my grandfather, who was equally high-spirited and had no momentum at all. Not inferior to the previous ones.
"Grandma, why is grandpa at the back?"
Ever since the last champion parade, Chu Chu knew that the one ranked first was the one with the best score, and she felt a little uncomfortable seeing her grandpa ranked at the back.
"Fu Bao hasn't woken up yet. If he lies in Grandma's arms for a while longer, shouldn't Grandpa's lifter at the end of the crane be in the back?"
