When Yang Fan arrived at Ma Qiao's house, the Ma family was already full of people inside and out.
In addition to the neighbors, the Ma family's huge group of relatives and friends all arrived, including those in the city and those in the countryside, bringing the old and the young, men and women, all of whom were magnificent and spectacular.
The small courtyard of the Ma family could not hold so many people, let alone the house, so they set up a water banquet under the outer wall of their house, because the wine banquet was not opened, and the guests were sitting and standing, calling relatives and friends, and chatting with each other.
In the east corner, there is a kitchen, where the invited cooks are busy, and the smell of meat wafts from time to time.
The Ma family's house is a three-room building, with a hall house in the middle and a living house on the left and right.
Originally, the east house was the largest, and it had always been inhabited by the mother of the horse, but now it has been vacated, and the cleaning is clean, and the walls have been repainted as a new house.
Ma Mu moved to Westinghouse.
Although Ma Qiao is filial, he doesn't want the old lady to have a little grievance, but he can't resist the old lady at this point, and the bride is not good to be aggrieved in the hut, so he obeys the old lady's will.
When Yang Fan arrived, Ma Qiao had already changed into a crimson official uniform, wearing a beam crown, and he was so nervous that he was sweating.
The crimson official uniform was originally the court dress of the four to six court officials, but the court exception, the groom and the bride can make an exception to wear the official dress leather belt and phoenix crown and xiaxia veil, which is to be dressed in Maqiao.
Seeing Yang Fan coming, Ma Qiao grinned at him, his face was a little stiff, it seemed that this wedding really made him nervous.
Fortunately, Su Fang is and several enthusiastic and decent people in the market are helping him to manage the wedding, and everything is arranged by these people, but he is also busy but not chaotic.
In the afternoon, because it was early summer, the sky was still bright, and the noodles were not far from the Ma family, they all lived in a workshop, so they didn't have to go to greet their relatives so early, but relatives and friends had been waiting impatiently, and under some noise, Su Fang was making a decision to welcome the bride, so a large group of people clamored out of Ma's house.
Yang Fan accompanied Ma Qiao, and when he walked out of the courtyard gate of Ma's house, a hired carriage had already stopped outside the door, and the horse had a red cloth tied around his neck, looking joyful.
Ma Qiao is the groom, and the groom wants to welcome the bride in person, so Ma Qiao set up a carriage to rush to the noodle family, and when he arrived at Ma's house, he accompanied Ma Qiao into the yard by the maid, first met his mother-in-law and his relatives, and then picked up the bride to get on the car.
At the noodle family, Aunt Hua and a group of old aunts helped to set off, and Miss Xiaodong and a group of girls from the workshop accompanied the dressed dough in the house.
According to the rules, at this time, the man should read the "hypnotic poem", but it is all elegant things played by the literati, and many ordinary people are not even illiterate in big characters, so how can they read what hypnotic poem, so Ma Qiao took a group of male partners to knock on the door outside and shout the name of the noodle, and a group of girls inside refused to open the door, just make it difficult for them to have some problems.
If these girls are bent on making things difficult, Ma Qiao wants to take the lady out smoothly, and he is afraid that he will not have to stand in front of the door for more than half an hour, but he still can't bear to listen to the sisters make a few difficult words, and he can't help but speak for Ma Qiao, begging the sisters to let him go.
When the sisters saw this, they made fun of the noodles, opened the door, and hugged her out.
The noodles are dressed in a blue dark dress, the groom wears red, and the bride wears green, which is the marriage attire of the Tang people, from which the idiom "red man and green woman" comes from.
The face piece has big sleeves, drape, solemn, dignified, headdress gold and silver glaze hairpin ornaments, although they are not real gold and silver ornaments, but there is no difference, and the appearance of the head full of pearls and emeralds looks extremely noble.
It's a pity that Yang Fan didn't see her appearance on tiptoe.
Although the hijab has appeared since the Han Dynasty, but the hijab was not popular in the Tang Dynasty, most people used a fan to get married, and the dough was holding a fan in her hand, a fan with white feathers on the edge, covering her face tightly, and she could only see a little skin from the side.
The bride's family also hired a carriage, the dough by the little east girl and another girl in the workshop, slowly boarded the carriage, Ma Qiao as a groom, driving forward, the wheel only rolled three turns, he got out of the car and got into his own carriage, the coachman drove for the bride, Ma Qiao beat the horse and whipped the horse, first rushed home to get ready to pick up the kiss.
This rule is called "anti-horse", if it is found that the bride is not a virgin, or there is any serious disobedience to women's morals during this period, the man can return the person, the reason why the bride brings her own carriage is here, although she has become a parent, she is not really a real horse family.
When Ma Qiao drove away, Yang Fan did not accompany him, his identity is the most free, and he is both a husband and a mother-in-law.
Yang Fan smiled and followed a group of relatives who sent off the noodles to the family, accompanied the carriage of the noodles, and walked slowly back to Ma's house, and saw Ma Qiao wearing the groom's dress, standing at the door and stretching his neck for a long time.
Next, the brazier, across the saddle, across the rice bag, a series of cumbersome greeting procedures, finally finished this set of processes, two "golden boys and girls" to the bridge and the noodles sprinkled grains, the groom in front, the bride half a step behind, in the crowd cheered and slowly walked into the hall.
After entering the hall, it is time to perform the "Fan Ceremony", which is equivalent to the later hijab, but the bride at this time is not so restrained, and she is not sent to the new house at the wedding scene.
In this era, the man's parents are only responsible for chatting, drinking and feasting with relatives and friends of the same generation, and the protagonists of the wedding are the newlyweds, so this "fan ceremony" is held in the hall.
Ma Qiao didn't say "but fan poetry", so he only performed "fan salute" to the dough, and the dough gently moved the fan blocking in front of him.
The fan moved away, she was still her, and she was not her The noodles were full of eyebrows, shyly smiling, and her charming appearance made even Ma Qiao and Yang Fan, who knew her well, stunned.
The bride is indeed the most beautiful woman at this moment Mother Ma smiled and gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
The bride and groom sang in harmony and let the bride and groom bow to each other.
At this time of the year, there was no prayer or worship to heaven and earth, but the husband and wife stood facing each other, and the dough bent down and bowed to their husbands.
Ma Qiao stood upright, nervously accepted the dough and bowed, and then returned the salute.
Noodles and then worship, Ma Qiao and then return the ceremony, if this is the case four times, the two of them salute, this is considered to be a real husband and wife, the noodles and Ma Qiao stepped forward together, as a bride to the mother-in-law salute.
Yang Fan stood on the side, watching them cut off a strand of hair, tie it up with red thread, put it in the bag, and complete the "gift of knotting hair"; watched them pick up chopsticks and eat a stew of meat that had been sacrificed to the ancestors' spiritual position, completing the "same prison ritual"; Watching them drink a glass of wine with a gourd scoop that was divided into two and tied together with a red rope, his eyes were a little moist, it was a feeling of blood connection, he had already regarded Maqiao and the noodles as his relatives, and seeing them complete the gift and finally get married, Yang Fan was sincerely happy for them in Wulizhuang, south of Luoyang City.
In the courtyard of the first family in the village, a woman with a dustpan was cooing to the chickens raised by the family and sprinkling the soaked grain rice on them.
Under the big locust tree at the intersection, several village children are playing a game of hide and seek.
Suddenly, a dozen fast horses galloped far away, and it had not rained for the past two days, and wherever they passed, a cloud of dust was splashed, rolling like a yellow dragon.
The knights soon stopped at the gate of the outer courtyard of a member of the village, surnamed Qiu.
The knights are all dressed in Western Regions Hufu, all wearing Luo Jin lapel-collared narrow-sleeved short robes, leather belts around their waists, deerskin boots, and swords behind their backs, which look light and neat, and heroic.
They all had "shallow dew" on their heads, and the wind occasionally lifted a trace of drape, revealing a trace of tender white skin, which was obviously some women.
The courtyard door opened, and the reunited Qiu Qiu Qiu came out at a trot, and as soon as the short and fat calves stepped out of the threshold, they clasped their fists and saluted again and again before they saw anyone: "Ahahaha, the seventh girl has arrived, Qiu has lost the distance, has lost the distance, forgive the sin, forgive the sin." ” "Qiu Qiu, I haven't seen you for two years, why are you almost fat?"

With a pleasing voice, a girl provoked a shallow dew with a horsewhip, revealing a happy and disgusted face.
Her eyes are clear and clear, she is smiling, bright and beautiful, handsome and lovely, and has a kind of hearty and pure Northwest woman, and her expression, gestures, and grace of a daughter of a big family.
When people see it, their eyes light up.
The enemy's smiling face stiffened, and he hurriedly smiled again: "Seventh girl, you are laughing, hahaha" Qiu Qiu bent his ball-like belly with difficulty and asked, "Seventh girl, why did you come all the way from Chang'an?"
The seven girls didn't answer, but only asked, "I'm looking for Shen Mu, is he in the house?"
Qiu Qiu said: "Ouch, this is unfortunate, the prince went out just after noon, and said that he would not come back tonight." ” The seventh girl's eyes froze, and she bowed her head from her horse and said, "Where did he go?"
Qiu Qiu shook his head like a rattle, and said with a fat face: "How can I tell you about the whereabouts of my son."
Eh, if the seventh girl will go to rest in the lower mansion first, presumably the son will not come back today, and he will come back tomorrow. ” The seventh girl snorted, raised her chin and said, "That vixen, is it going out with him or in your house?"
Qiu Qiu didn't answer directly, but said with a smile: "Childe is a person who goes out." ” The seventh girl's eyes rolled, and she snorted coldly: "That girl will find another place to live, the surname Shen must have heard some rumors, go out to hide from me, let's go, he thinks that if he hides, I won't find him?"
This seventh girl was an impatient, and as soon as she pulled her horse, she rushed towards Luoyang City.
A group of more than a dozen fast horses rushed out behind her, the horses' hooves rolled up a cloud of dust, Qiu Qiu's round body disappeared in an instant, and in the dust, only half of a stump-like fat thing was seen there, and there was a coughing sound in the dust.
At this time, Shen Mu was carrying a box of wedding cakes and two horses of fine cotton cloth, and was stepping into the door of Ma Qiao's house with a smile To be continued:
