Chapter 219: Red All Over the Sky
No, it will be considered a real marriage in two days. Today, she will go to the Xiao family's house in the county town first, just to have a wedding banquet with relatives, and no other ceremonies will be held yet.
The sedan chair was shaky, and the space inside was not big and dark. Thinking that she would have to sit upright like this to go to the capital, her face turned green. This was worse than a carriage, where you could lie down.
On the way back to the city, there were more people on the roadside. The housekeeper asked people to scatter candies and copper coins along the way. Children, women, and men all rushed to pick up things on the ground. This candy, with bright red wrappers, looked delicious. There were also copper coins. Someone actually scatters money like this at a wedding!
The people following behind each had a wedding cake and ate it as they walked.
They walked and scattered all the way. After entering the city gate, there were even more people. Fortunately, the Marquis' Mansion and the County Government also sent people to maintain order. Those who watched the excitement could only stand on both sides, so they could enter the city smoothly.
When they arrived at the mansion, there was no ceremony, so it was just a transit station. Xiaomi was carried directly into a room prepared in advance, accompanied by her dowry.
"Miss, are you tired?"
"I'm not tired, just a little hungry."
She couldn’t get out of bed after wearing her wedding dress, so she only ate a few dumplings in the morning and didn’t even dare drink a sip of water.
"Someone just said that the food will be served soon."
Wang came into the room and helped her take off the veil first. "My daughter, I have to go out to entertain the clan members. I will be with you later." Now that there is no wedding ceremony, her daughter is not married yet.
"it is good!"
As she was talking, Sun brought people to deliver food, "Xiaomi, take a look at these and see if they suit your taste. If you want to eat something, just tell them. Don't put yourself in a difficult position."
"Thank you ma'am, these are great."
It’s really good, better than what she usually eats at home.
As long as the food is good, you won’t have to go hungry in the future.
After the banquet, Wang stayed with Lin Xiaomi for a while before going back. They were going to the city tomorrow, so everyone had to pack up in the evening.
She was a little reluctant to leave. This was the first time she had lived away from home without her parents since she came to this world.
When Lin Dashan and his wife returned home, they felt empty without their daughter. The twins felt the same way. Thinking that their eldest sister would live with her brother-in-law in the future, the two little guys looked sad. Could they go and ask their eldest sister not to get married? They would earn money to support her for the rest of her life when they grow up.
"You two should go back to your room and rest. Mom and I still have some things to clean up."
"Dad, does my eldest sister have to get married?"
"Well, if you don't get married by the age of 18, the government will force you to marry. So you should study hard and be a support for your eldest sister. Then people won't dare to bully her in the future."
"Yes." The two little ones nodded firmly.
Sun was worried that Lin Xiaomi was not used to it, so she came over to chat with her in the evening and told the first and third maids who came with the dowry to serve her well before leaving.
The next day, at dawn, Old Man Lin and Lin Mujin's family came to prepare for the trip to the capital. Lin Wanxiu also came with Lin Dachuan's family. Her husband was a little shy and stood alone at the back.
He had never been to the prefectural capital. He had been to the county town once or twice to buy things for the wedding. The first time he came to Uncle Wanxiu's house, he was shocked by everything here. Later, he went to the Marquis's Mansion to attend the wedding banquet, which overturned his three views. He could not even dream of the life they lived!
People are always afraid of unknown things, and he is the same. The prefectural city and the marquis's mansion make him feel timid. At the same time, it also makes him feel inferior. They are both sons-in-law, but they are a world apart.
Fortunately, they separated and the prince still lived in the capital, so he had few opportunities to see him. If they continued to celebrate the New Year and festivals together in the future, would he still be alive?
After everyone is gathered, everyone sets off together.
The Xiao family went ahead of them, and they followed closely behind.
Because there were so many people, the pace was slow, and they rested for another night outside the city. This was all calculated in time. On the third day, they went directly to the Marquis's Mansion to get married. There were 22 loads of dowry, which had been carried outside the city yesterday and would be brought into the city today with other dowries.
Apart from the bride-welcoming party, the elders of the Xiao family went back first to prepare for the wedding.
The road was noisy, with more than a dozen servants throwing wedding candies and copper coins on both sides. The Lin family's bride sat quietly in the carriage, not daring to lift the curtain to watch the fun.
When they arrived at the gate of the marquis' mansion, Xiao Ran was the first to dismount.
Lin Xiaomi got up very early every day these days. The sedan chair was shaking all the way. When she was about to fall asleep, she felt someone kicked the sedan door.
Hey!
Purse your lips and cheer yourself up.
Quan Xin's mother carefully helped the person down from the sedan chair, and Xiao Ran and she held the two ends of the wedding flower respectively.
The Marquis' Mansion was filled with red, which was very festive.
After getting off the bridal sedan and stepping over the fire basin, she entered the main courtyard of the Marquis's Mansion. The person under the veil could only follow Xiao Ran's footsteps. Fortunately, Xiao Ran took into consideration that she couldn't see anything, so he didn't walk too fast and followed her steps.
After entering the house, Lin Xiaomi was supported by the maid and stood still.
"Worship heaven and earth!"
With the help of her maid, she found the direction, lowered her head and knelt down.
"Two thanks to the high hall!"
He turned around and knelt down in front of the elder of the Xiao family who was sitting in the upper seat.
Sun, who was sitting at the top, looked at the two people below with a look of relief on her face. Her son had grown up and started a family.
"Couple greetings!"
Facing each other, Lin Xiaomi couldn't see his face, she could only see his feet hanging down from his wedding dress. It was still a little unreal, she was getting married already?
