Chapter 52 Preparations Before Marriage

In the current Song Dynasty, marriage has been simplified a lot compared to previous dynasties.

Usually, when ancient people got married, they had to go to the name of the ancients, ask for their names, ask for their appointments, ask for a date, and welcome them to the bride for six steps.

But at this time, I took down the title and asked for these two movies. Since the economy was already very prosperous during this period, when discussing marriage, the practice of looking for a wife and sharing wealth appeared.

The so-called wanting a wife is a blind date. The man and woman agree on a date for meeting.

If you put a gold hairpin on a woman's hair bun, it is called "insert hairpin". If you don't like it, you should give it colorful satin, which is called "shocking"

Tongzicai means that in the intermarriage letter, in addition to the names and birth dates of both men and women, it also requires the property status of the family. The performance of marriage lottery is very obvious.

Before the wedding, the man would send something like pollen to "urge the marriage", while the woman would use curtains and bedding to decorate the new house, which was called "shopping".

When welcoming the bride, the groom came to the girl's house with a float or sedan chair, and the bride began with the bride.

Although the scholars and officials of the Song Dynasty were still accustomed to making horse-drawn carriages, there was already a saying among the people that they were sitting in sedan chairs.

After getting into the sedan chair, the bride also has the custom of asking for good money and having a wedding banquet. When she came to the man's doorstep, the bride came down and asked for good luck.

After the bride enters the church, there is a church. The newlyweds need to hold the "knot of the same heart" in their hands. The newlyweds first worship the heaven and earth, the ancestors, and then enter the bridal chamber, and the couple worship each other.

After the visit, the newlyweds sat on the bed, spread their tents and tied their buns together.

Together with a bun means that the newlyweds cut a strand of hair and tie a concentric knot as a token of the wedding.

There will be a ceremony to remove flowers and fan the flowers until the candle is extinguished.

If you think this is done, you're a big mistake!

During the period when the candle was extinguished, guests who came, both young and old, could make pranks and make things difficult for newcomers, just like the bridal chambers in later generations.

If you think the wedding chamber is over, you are still wrong!

The next morning, the wedding was over after the newlyweds worshipped their parents-in-law.

When Zhang Yun finished listening to these procedures, she looked a little dazed. After this arrangement, she felt that there was no big difference from the wedding ceremony in later generations.

At this moment, he only has one feeling, that is, "tired"!

"Is this still possible for people to have a wedding chamber?" Zhang Yun just thought about it in her heart, and she could never say it out loud.

Since it was granted by the official family, these five steps of Nacai, Naji, Nazheng and Nazheng were removed under Zhang Yun's strong opposition.

As for what the woman's family thought, she didn't see Zhao Guihe's depressed look on her face, but it was time to go ahead. He had been fed very much by dog ​​food these days.

Now Zhao Gui and his elder brother have a deep understanding of this sentence when a woman is old but not a woman.

Although he agreed to Zhang Yun’s previous suggestion, Liu still has a bottom line after all. In the current Zhang family, if it is just their mother and son, it would be more than enough.

But no matter how you say it, Zhao Min is also a princess!

I was too aggrieved when I got married into the Zhang family, right? So, buying a house was put on the agenda.

After hearing this, Zhang Yun said casually: "Damn!"

It seems that it is not only necessary to buy a house when getting married in later generations, but also to buy a house when getting married in the Song Dynasty.

"Mom, buying a house is a waste of money..." Before Zhang Yun finished speaking, she was blocked by Liu.

"Are you short of money? How can the princess marrying her to lose face of the royal family!" Every sentence Liu said was reasonable, and Zhang Yun had no reason to refute it at all.

But Zhang Yun, who is known as the iron rooster, still did not give up and muttered to herself: "The manor in Niujia Village will be repaired soon, it would be great that we can move there together at that time."

As soon as Zhang Yun said this, Liu was a little surprised: "Niujia Village? Manor?"

Only then did Zhang Yun remember that he had never mentioned the construction of a manor in Niujia Village to Liu. He was always the elusive Mo San.

So, when Zhang Yun took out the picture of the manor in Niujia Village, Liu's chest was undulating, completely looking as if he was disappointed.

"A prodigal son, Liulang, why are you so luxurious!" Liu family beat Zhang Yun upset.

Now Zhang Yun became even more depressed. Buying a house is not a waste of money, but building a manor by yourself is considered a waste of money?

Now Liu invited Zhao Min and accompanied by Zhang Yun, hurried towards Niujia Village.

In fact, Liu was excited at this time. He wanted to say "beautiful job", but he couldn't say that.

It is such a timid thing to live in a manor surrounded by mountains and rivers away from Lin'an. What's more, once the manor Zhang Yun mentioned is built, it will not lose the face of the royal family.

Along the way, Zhang Yun sat in front of the carriage depressedly, while Liu and Zhao Min were talking and laughing in the carriage, as if they didn't exist.

"Animals like women are so scary!" Zhao Guihe, who was following along the side, reminded carefully.

When Zhang Yun heard this, she said angrily: "Is this the reason why my brother has not gotten married for a long time?"

This sentence hurt Zhao Guihe's nerves. He wanted to say that it was not that he didn't want to get married, but that the one he liked had already passed away.

Seeing that a shocking gossip was about to be dug out, the convoy had arrived at Zhangjiazhuang, which was about to be built.

Looking at the huge courtyard in front of him, Zhao Guihe was a little confused and looked back at Zhang Yun. He looked at how big his eyes were. Ten thousand grass and mud horses ran past in his heart in an instant.

"Liu Lang is sure that he is building a manor?" Zhao Guihe only said the first half, but the second half was not said at all.

Zhang Yun nodded with satisfaction and said, "Manor, an absolute manor! A big family and a large family, many servants, is a waste of land."

What Zhang Yun said is, why do you feel shameless!

This Zhangjiazhuang is built next to the northern foot of Phoenix Mountain. It contains winemaking workshops, blacksmith workshops, carpenter workshops, and even a small military camp that can accommodate thousands of people.

The most core area is the R&D workshop near Phoenix Mountain!

There was an exclusive area for the Mo family, and ordinary idle people in the village could not enter at all. After returning from the Northern Expedition, Qin Ming and others were arranged here.

Since that conspiracy with Zhao Kuo, Zhang Yun has not hidden this matter.

In this regard, Zhao Kuo really closed his eyes. After all, the land belongs to Zhang Yun himself. As long as you don’t rebel, it depends on how you make trouble.

Therefore, although some people in the court impeached Zhang Yun, they were all suppressed by Zhao Kuo.

Let me ask, who can use most of his assets to support the Northern Expedition?

It is true that Zhang Yun could make money, but at that time he was devoted to the country! Just one thing was much better than those literati and literati who spoke slander all day long.

After the Northern Expedition, Han Tuozhou did not win over Zhang Yun like before. After all, he is now in a state of office and life.

Although I still quarrel with the peacemakers on weekdays, it is also for the sake of maximizing my own interests.

By this comparison, Zhang Yun became a "selfless" person instead.

Therefore, in Zhao Kuo's eyes, whether it is building a manor or giving a marriage, these are considered to be a recognition of Zhang Yun, and they are also moral.

At present, there are not many people who can truly do things for the Song Dynasty. Compared with the emperor Zhao Kuo, there are quite a few people like Xiang Zhang Yun, but they don’t have real power.

Therefore, Zhao Kuo needs a breakthrough, and Zhang Yun is one of the best candidates for this breakthrough.
