Chapter 36: Candle Night in the Cave Room

It is said that at this time, the ruling powers, represented by Wang Zeng and Lu Yijian, were all promoted by Wang Dan back then, and confronted Ding Wei and Wang Qinruo, and Wang Dan really knew them. Wang Su had a strange temper and didn't bother them, and in the days that followed, he just followed Xu Ping in the small courtyard to compile books. He had a more abundant collection of books at home, and from time to time he got some out-of-print books, which were printed and saved.

Everyone is young, except for Ji Ying, who is a little older and in her early thirties, everyone else is in their twenties, and it is the time when they are in high spirits, making books and drinking, and getting along well.

Xinke Jinshi has formed some small groups, Wen Yanbo and Bao Zheng are the core group, most of them are the children of middle and lower-level officials, and Han Qi brothers and Wu Yu are a group, most of them are the children of middle- and high-level officials. They are all from official families, and they have had an intricate relationship since their ancestors, and they naturally got closer and closer in the same year.

Xu Ping, except for Wang Su, was born in a poor family, and he couldn't climb any high branches, so he had no reason to go out, so he simply nested in this small courtyard and waited for the award. Among them, Xu Pingmen is the worst, how can the parents be traced back to ordinary people, and the new branch is also the only one. You must know that even Cheng Junzu had people who were officials in the Tang Dynasty, and they were barely considered to be official eunuchs.

The only person Xu Ping knew who was a big official was Zhang Zhibai, but the imperial court did not allow Xinke Jinshi to worship Zaizhi, and he couldn't find a way to get popular, so he gave up that mind and resigned himself to fate.

Officials and doctors are a huge net, linked by marriage, and they are omnipresent. The real children of the poor family, even if they enter the high school, unless they have the opportunity to go against the sky, they can only sink in the middle and lower classes. Officials above the intermediate level in the Song Dynasty were mainly recommended by the recommendation system, and it was difficult for anyone in the court to be officials.

Fortunately, Xu Ping has no ambition to be a big official, he just wants to do a few terms outside while he is young, and when the middle-level officials can't be promoted normally, he will go home and get away. He thought about the reason, his father Xu Zheng was almost seventy years old at that time, and no one would say anything if he was filial at home.

On April 13, a good day chosen by Lin Wensi, Xu Ping and Lin Suniang got married.

Both of them are thin, and in order to be lively, I wanted to post to Jinshi in the same year. But I don't want it to be unlucky, Wang Hao, the oldest Jinshi in this year's Jinshi, died on the tenth day of the fourth month, and he didn't even wait for the Qionglin banquet. I really don't know whether to be pitiful or to be glad that I have a jinshi in this life.

Because of this, Xu Ping only invited a few Jinshi of the same year who were familiar with him, except for the small gang in his own courtyard, only Cheng Jun was alone.

The sun had just risen, and Wang Su came to Xu's house in the same year as the throne, handed over the congratulatory gift, and went straight to Xu Ping's small courtyard.

entered the small courtyard, but saw Xu Ping wandering in the small courtyard, and Li Zhang next to him followed without pulling a step.

A few people came up to say hello, and Wang Suqi said, "Why doesn't Yun Xing rest in the room?" ”

Li Zhang next to him just shook his head: "The bride's family has spread the bill, and she won't be allowed to enter the door again!" ”

Only then did a few people notice that Xiuxiu and Su'er were confronting each other at the door of Xu Pingfang. They also stayed in this small courtyard for a few days, and they both knew each other, and they couldn't help but smile when they saw a few people.

When Xiuxiu saw the guests coming, she said to Su'er: "Sister, get out of the way!" When guests come, don't let people sit in the room, what kind of system! ”

Su Er opened her arms to protect the door and said firmly: "No one is allowed to enter unless my lady comes." What day is it today? Of course, it's the biggest newcomer! Whoever comes, they will be let go! ”

The new house is customarily decorated by the bride's family, and when it is furnished, the room is locked and no one else is allowed to enter. Even the bridegroom had to bring his bride before he could enter the door. As Lin Suniang's personal envoy, Su'er's most important mission is at this moment, to firmly guard the door.

Xiuxiu turned out to be inappropriate, and happily helped Su'er decorate the new house. After the arrangement was finished, Su'er found an excuse to trick her out, clicked the door of the room to lock it, turned her face and didn't recognize anyone anymore, saying that she wouldn't let anyone in. Xiuxiu was so angry that she wanted to cry, and she and Su'er confronted each other in front of the door like fighting cocks.

It is said that Su'er only needs to keep the bedroom, but the bad thing is that Xu Ping's bedroom is connected to the study, and Su'er is all locked in one go, leaving only Xiuxiu's room over there still open.

Wang Su and the others were already married, and they could only shake their heads and smile bitterly when they heard what happened, and it was impossible for them to be angry with a little girl, so they had to find a place to sit down in the courtyard.

It is even more impossible for Xu Ping to take care of these miscellaneous things, and only let the two little girls mess around there.

Seeing that it was almost noon, Xu Ping rode a horse and followed the band's sedan chair to welcome Lin Suniang.

There are few people and there are few people, many etiquettes have been omitted, no one blocked the door, and no one made a fuss, and Lin Suniang was successfully taken to his home.

According to Lin Wensi's meaning, everything is simple, except for the drum and sedan chair, at this time, the rich often used all kinds of complicated ceremonial guards and ostentatious prostitutes are not used, but just quietly carry Lin Suniang home.

Once inside, the guests are seated at the banquet.

Xu Ping helped Lin Suniang into his small courtyard, Xiuxiu saw it, and said angrily to Su'er: "Lin Niangzi is here, see if you can open the door!" ”

"My lady is here, I will naturally open it!"

After Su'er finished speaking, she turned around and opened the new door, and stood aside obediently.

The new room has already been decorated with colorful decorations by Su Er and Xiuxiu, Xu Ping helped Lin Suniang sit on the bed and said to her: "Lady, take a break!" ”

This is called sitting on the bed and being rich, Lin Suniang just nodded and did not speak.

The two sat side by side on the bed, like two puppets, and there was silence in the room. Although the two have grown up together since childhood, they don't have those flowers before and under the moon, and their ears and temples are grinding. Suddenly sitting on the same bed together, Xu Ping actually had a strange feeling. He came to this world, everything is going smoothly, today can be said to be the most exciting thing, who knows that he still can't get excited, and his mood is as calm as usual. Maybe it's because it's the same thing he has experienced before, it's like arranging a path to come step by step, and he just follows this path, and it's hard to make waves in his heart.

Wait until the sky is about to be dark, and then officially worship the church.

The Xu family does not have a family temple, but they worship heaven and earth and count, and after worshipping, they worship the elder, and they are considered to be ceremonial.

sent Lin Suniang back to the room to sit down, and Xu Ping changed into his regular clothes and came out to answer the gift. Everyone coaxed together, and Xu Ping had to drink one or two glasses of wine. Fortunately, with Li Zhang by his side, he didn't get drunk.

Look at the late night, the guests let Xu Ping go back to the room, and the cave room spent candles at night, which made the newcomer a gift.

Returning to the new house and sitting down next to Lin Suniang, Xu Ping was a little drunk, and his body couldn't help shaking. Lin Suniang secretly stretched out her hand and helped Xu Ping steady.

Xiuxiu and Su'er finally calmed down the quarrel, came over together and sprinkled a flower tent for the newcomers, served them to drink a glass of wine, broke up their hair buns, and knotted the left and right of the man and the woman together.

When the hair and Lin Suniang's black hair knotted, Xu Ping felt a strange feeling in his heart, and from then on, the two were married couples. The law has clouds, the way of the husband and wife, the righteousness period is the same point, and once it is with it, it will not change for life. As if in a dream, this dreamy and beautiful little girl beside him became his wife and wanted to spend his life with him in this world.

In the future, it will be inconvenient for Xiuxiu and Su'er to be here, and the two of them will leave with interest. From now on, Su'er will also live in Xiuxiu's room, and I don't know what kind of quarrel the two will have tonight.

Watching Xiuxiu close the door, Xu Ping gently picked the hairpin on Lin Suniang's head, Lin Suniang gently reached out to untie Xu Ping's night placket, and fell on the bed together.
