Chapter 97 Married Couple

This was the second time Cui Che came to Princess Leping's Mansion. As soon as he entered the door, he was shocked by the dowry filling the courtyard.

'This is a lot of lifting!'

Cui Che said secretly.

Although Yang Jian and his wife usually advocated frugality, when the eldest daughter remarried, they were still very generous, giving away thousands of pieces of cloth alone.

Lu Zuqian of the Southern Song Dynasty recorded in the "Patriarchal Items": The cost of marrying a girl is one hundred guan, and the cost of marrying a woman is 50 guan, and the dowry fee is twice the marriage fee.

Although it is far removed from the Sui Dynasty, one thing is the same: the dowry for a woman to marry is higher than the bride price for a man to marry his wife.

In ancient times, there were cases where the girl's parents had nothing to lose and only asked for a large sum of money, even if they didn't pay a dowry, but that was called concubine-buying.

The head wife must bring enough dowry and be successful, otherwise she will be despised by the people in her husband's house.

Cui Che had already given the betrothal gift, which was the lower part of the six gifts. It was his first time to come to Princess Leping's Mansion, but Yang Lihua avoided it according to the ceremony, and Yu Wen Eying didn't see it either.

But for the gifts Cui Che gave, even if they were super doubled, they would not require such a large dowry.

However, when Yang Lihua, dressed in a pure black harp dress, walked towards him, Cui Che could no longer take his eyes away from his wife's generous dowry.

Yang Lihua looked at Cui Che's lost look, smiled shyly, and covered her face with a round fan.

Yuwen Eying was picked up by Cui Che along with her mother, holding the wedding red envelope given by her stepfather in her hand. On the festive day, a smile finally appeared on her face.

At a young age, she knew her mother's thoughts very well. Although she didn't want to share her thoughts with others, she was still sincerely moved and happy for her.

From Princess Leping's Mansion to the Lihui Courtyard, the people along the way were amazed as the dowries were being carried.

When we arrived at the ceremonial hall, it was already approaching the hour.

After waiting for a while, when the time came, with a shout of "auspicious time has arrived", Cui Che and Yang Lihua walked into the venue accompanied by the flower girl Yu Wenying.

The venue was crowded with guests, both familiar and unfamiliar, and everyone with official or semi-official positions crowded into the ceremonial courtyard. Even Mr. and Mrs. Yang Jian attended their daughter's wedding in person.

The praisers read out the edict, and Cui Che and Yang Lihua performed the ritual of washing their hands and expressing their solemn feelings.

Then they greeted each other and sat facing each other.

Yang Jian gave them a bowl of rice and a bowl of meat for Cui Che and Yang Lihua to eat together, which was a gift of being imprisoned together, indicating that they were one family from now on.

Someone else presented He Ning wine. The so-called Ning refers to a gourd-made gourd. Cui Che and Yang Lihua each drank half a gourd, and then exchanged it with each other. They drank all the rest of the other's gourd. This was the He Ning gift. Because the gourd tastes bitter, it also has a symbolic meaning.

The two of them will share joys and sorrows in the future.

After drinking the Hexin wine, Cui Che forced himself to take off the ribbon from Yang Lihua's bun. He held the ribbon high to show to his relatives and friends, indicating that the wedding had received their approval and blessing. This was the wedding ceremony, and it also meant that Yang Lihua had been married to him.

Come in.

Then came the hair knot. Cui Che and Yang Lihua cut off a small piece of hair each and tied it together with a red rope, and they were the knotted couple.

The two gave each other jade pendants as tokens, then held hands to receive blessings from relatives and friends, performed the hand-holding ceremony, and finally came to the three bows, that is, worshiping heaven and earth, worshiping parents, and worshiping husband and wife.

It's just that this time I'm paying homage to my parents, it's just Yang Jian and his wife.

It's not that Cui Che's parents died young. If he married an ordinary woman, he would invite his grandmother and aunt to the seat no matter what. But even if it was a wedding, who could be on an equal footing with Yang Jian and his wife.

After listening to Yang Jian and his wife's instructions, the official said, "It's done."

Cui Che breathed a sigh of relief. He finally completed the entire process. Compared with marrying a wife, it was much simpler to take a concubine.

Brother Che has three side rooms, Miaorong was born as his own maid, Mu Xieli was also bought back to the mansion by him, and Yuchi Chifan was given to him by Yang Jian, so he was left alone.

At that time, Cui Che just called a few relatives and friends, closed the door and had a small banquet, which was not so complicated.

Yang Jian and his wife drove back to the palace, Cui Che invited a group of relatives and friends to have a banquet at the palace, and Yuwen Eying was also temporarily sent back to Princess Leping's mansion.

In Wucheng Palace, Yang Lihua was sitting in her new house, waiting for Cui Che nervously and uneasily.

This was not her first marriage. It could be said that her father arranged the marriage, but in fact she chose her own son-in-law and married the man of her dreams.

Hearing the movement outside the house, Yang Lihua quickly picked up the round fan to cover her face.

After the two worshiped in the church, they had already stopped fanning themselves. It was just a subconscious move on her part to cover her face with a round fan.

The door of the room was pushed open, and it was Cui Che who staggered back. At this time, the night was getting darker, and the guests were still noisy in the front yard. Brother Che had been drunk a lot of wine, but he didn't want to drink anymore, and he was anxious to come back to see him.

My own bride.

Cui Che took away the obstructive round fan, held Yang Lihua's oval face and carefully looked at her beautiful facial features. Yang Lihua's face was filled with red glow, and she was so shy that she praised:

"I, Cui Che, have spent several lifetimes cultivating good fortune to have such a beautiful wife."

Yang Lihua endured her shame and replied:

"It is my heart's and my heart's wish to marry Cui Lang's wife."

"And his name is Cui Lang!"

Cui Che smiled.

"Husband."

Just when Yang Lihua changed her name, Cui Che moved her lips closer and blocked her mouth.

Her tongue responded clumsily to Cui Che, allowing him to do whatever he wanted.

When the love was getting stronger, I heard Pei Le banging on the door and making noise outside:

"Father! I want to sleep with my foster father!"

It turned out that since Cui Zhaorong knew that Cui Che was about to marry Yang Lihua, he was worried that he would not be able to bear the loneliness of sleeping with Miaorong, Mu Xieli, and Yuchi Chifan, so he stuffed Pei Le into Cui Che's room and let him sleep with him.

Naturally, they were worried that Miaorong and the others would get pregnant before Yang Lihua.

Cui Che deeply agrees with this.

Even Yang Yong, his own son, got a concubine's eldest son, which made Dugu Jialuo unhappy, let alone his own son-in-law.

It was a fluke that he was not forced to drive the three concubines out of the house. Cui Che did not dare to test Dugu Jialuo's bottom line.

It's just that Pei Le is used to sleeping with his adoptive father, and even if it's Cui Che's big day, he still wants to join in the fun.

Before Cui Che could go out to chase people away, Pei Le, who was crying outside the house, had already been taken away by Cui Zhaorong, but the atmosphere had been ruined by that brat.

Pulling out the right hand that had penetrated Yang Lihua's clothes, Cui Che himself didn't know it. He clearly put it in through the clothes at first, and he didn't know when he reached it.

The atmosphere was slightly awkward. Cui Che sat on the edge of the bed next to Yang Lihua, quite at a loss.

Seemingly sensing Cui Che's embarrassment, Yang Lihua took the initiative to turn around, brought her lips together, and kissed her for a long time. The rouge had already been wiped clean by Cui Che's lips.

When their lips parted, Yang Lihua leaned against Cui Che's chest and whispered, before she could catch her breath:

"I hope your husband will take pity on you."

It was obviously early autumn, but Cui Che felt unbearably hot all over.

It will be released the day after tomorrow. This chapter failed to pass the review and was blocked. Needless to say the reason. Although I think it is quite good, I can only modify it and re-post it.

Thanks to book friends Zhou ⑧ Say I Love You Again, Purple Sky, and all kinds of rewards.
