The Return of the General to the Field

Chapter 12 When the wedding is going on

On the nineteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, both Meng Wu and Xia He woke up very early in the morning. Meng Wu was a man and didn't need to make much trouble, but Xia He was miserable. From beginning to end, there was makeup and extremely cumbersome wedding clothes. , After a complete set of procedures, it has been a whole morning.

The auspicious time for the personal welcome has arrived. Meng Wu is riding a horse, followed by a series of men who carry sedan chairs, dowry gifts, and music. Wearing a handkerchief, she twisted her thick waist and walked beside the wedding sedan chair.The welcoming team went bustlingly towards Li Lao Yao's house at the head of the village.

Because Xia He had already broken with his own father, there was no suitable brother to carry Xia He out. Finally, Meng Wu and Li Laoyao discussed and decided that Meng Kui, the son of the deputy Lizheng, would carry Xia He out.Xia He's popularity in the village has not been very good, so naturally there are not many handkerchiefs from her boudoir. When Meng Wu picked him up, he was only stopped by Meng Yuer and a few brothers who had a good relationship with Xia He in the village. door, so the meaning passed, and Meng Wu quickly received someone.Meng Kui carried Xia He out of the house, and Meng Wu quickly put his husband on his back. Xi Niang helped Xia He into the sedan chair, and when the sedan chair got up, Meng Wu got on the horse, and a group of people went to Meng Wu's house in a mighty manner. go.Rites and music sounded again, and the sound of suona echoed loudly throughout the village.

A group of children blocked the way ahead, and Xi Niang cheerfully stuffed candies into their hands, and some monkeys even reached into the basket full of candies carried by Xi Niang to grab candies.After catching it, he ran away with a smile, for fear that Xi Niang would trouble him.As the team moved forward, Xia He was sitting in a swaying sedan chair, his brows and eyes filled with joy, and the past that was struggling in the quagmire seemed like a lifetime ago.

The front hall and courtyard of Meng Wu’s house were already full of tables and tables of wedding banquets. The well-known banquet chefs invited by Meng Wu from all over the world really lived up to their reputation. It's not very good, but in the eyes of ancient peasants, it was a big deal.

The sedan chair stopped at the gate of the courtyard, Meng Wu let go of the reins, dismounted sideways, and strode towards the big red sedan chair.After kicking the sedan door, Meng Wu couldn't wait to grab Xia He's outstretched hand.Xia He couldn't see it, but he was not afraid of falling when he was being held by Meng Wu, and Meng Wu could hold him steadily.Meng Wu led his husband, one step at a time, walked up to the front of the hall, stepped over the brazier in front of the main room, the newlyweds finally stepped into the main room where the ceremony was held.

At this time, there were two respectable old people sitting in the high hall—the old village head and the youngest Li.Because both Meng Wuhe and Xia He can be regarded as having no elders and relatives, so it is perfect for Xia He's Gan Mo and the village chief, who can be said to be Meng Wu's grandfather, to be Gao Tang.

When Meng Wu led Xia He to stand still in the hall, the master of ceremonies pulled his voice and shouted: "One bow to heaven and earth—"... "Second bow to the high hall—"...

Meng Wu meticulously completed the ceremony of worshiping heaven and earth. He felt a sense of holiness that he had never felt before. He and Xiaohe have been married since then. Unlike the previous life, no one here has the right to accuse the two of them They can show their affection openly and aboveboard, they are the closest people, they are recognized by the law and the world, no matter who has something to do with the two, the other is the natural person to be informed and responsible.This realization made him feel excited and dazzled.

Xia He was helped into the new house by Xima.The banquet started, and Meng Wu toasted table by table. Almost everyone in the village gathered here, even Meng Tao's family came, but no one paid any attention to them.The bustling banquet lasted until it was dark, and the children were jostling and jostling in and out of the yard. There were always all kinds of excitement in the free time of the farm.

Meng Wu is a hearty man. Over the past two months since he settled down in Mengjia Village, he has become very familiar with many men in the village, so he was not drunk too much today. He blocks most of it.Meng Wu respected table by table, and finally walked to a table of people whom Meng Wu hated very much.Meng Wu didn't want to invite them to block his eyes, but it's not good to not invite them due to favors. Meng Wu didn't want to make any mistakes in the wedding ceremony with Xia He, and didn't want to leave any topics for others to talk about.So I invited them perfunctorily, and these people were Meng Wu's uncle's family.

"Uncle, thank you for coming to have my nephew's wedding wine. This glass of wine is toast to you." Meng Xinfu said with a smile on his face that he thought he was very kind: "My nephew is really lucky. Not only did he come back from the battlefield alive, I became a great hero who defended my family and defended the country, and even married a man I liked. Seeing that you are doing well, I am relieved, and I am worthy of your parents." Meng Wu sneered in his heart, and he didn't bother to talk to you. He cares a lot, and there will be plenty of time to calculate slowly after the account. "Uncle, uncle, why are you interested? Eat well, and my nephew is going to toast the others." After finishing speaking, he raised his foot and left without any response.

Abandoning the unhappy family, Meng Wu turned around and merged into the joyful and festive atmosphere.
