Yuan Ji has left chaotically, and he is seeing that the heart of heaven is harmonious.

In the prosperous era, Hongxi worships ritual music, and the words of all directions are mild.

Women are diligent in spinning and sang, and men learn poetry and books and filial piety.

Ye Lao had nothing to do, and made up a peace song.

The women surrounded them, and at first, Xu Ye, who was stupid, took it with his hand, smiled and thanked him, but gradually he was holding oranges in his hands, and he couldn't care about it at all.

The women saw that the groom had oranges in his hands, and they didn't take it, so they had to throw it into the sedan chair one after another, but fortunately, they all had little strength with goodwill, and the sedan chair was wide and wide, and in the crackling sound, the ripples and small leaves were suddenly dumbfounded.

Seeing the oranges flying in like raindrops, the two brides hurriedly raised their hands to protect their delicate faces, people laughed, and ran to a large group of people to buy oranges.

After a while, the bride was surrounded in the middle with oranges, and Xu Ye couldn't stop laughing, so angry that he gritted his teeth and was helpless.

Because the family members and others are all women, it is difficult to come forward and drive them away, so they can only shout from afar: "Don't throw it, don't throw it away, please don't throw it away." ”

The sixteen palanquin bearers noticed that the palanquin was getting heavier and heavier, and shouted, "Oh! The grandmother wants to give the newcomer fruit, and it is a gift to go to the Guogong Mansion to give it, how can it be thrown in the sedan chair in the middle of the road? Oops, stop! We are carrying the bride to be married, not to you to carry the fruit. ”

Hundreds of women suddenly laughed, even with the surrounding tens of thousands of people laughing, sixteen sedan chair men also don't care about the rules, the important thing to protect the bride is to take care of the weight of the sedan chair, let go of the legs and feet to run, and shout while running: "Go quickly." Come on! If you are entangled by those aunts and grandmothers again, you can't go to the house today, don't talk about it, don't crush the sedan chair. ”

The entire procession immediately caused a series of reactions, and the originally neat procession began to be chaotic, with laughter everywhere.

In front of the gate, Xu Hao and a group of adults did not think that Xu, but smiled forward and backwards, and from time to time someone laughed: "In the past, Pan Lang threw fruits, and now there are relatives and fruits, and since then there is another romantic allusion!" ”

Xu Hao smiled: "Don't have so many rules." Quickly carry my daughter-in-law straight into the hall. ”

In this way, the sedan chair was brought to the main hall of the worship hall, and the men all went to watch the ceremony, and soon it was full of people, inside and out, and the wives of each family also came, either on the second floor or on the side, and the girls who had not left the pavilion hid behind the screen to talk and laugh.

I saw that the dragon and phoenix sedan chair was red, Xu Ye stepped forward to open the sedan door, and a large number of oranges rolled out in an instant, so there was endless laughter inside and outside. Mu Ningxue, Xu Qinglian and others also felt funny.

But it was very indecent to step on the orange, and Xie Jin's wife had an idea and said with a smile: "It is the most auspicious for the newcomer to bring happy fruits." Besides, it's a kumquat, and the name is better. Let's all bring a few back, and we will also be touched by the joy of the newcomers. ”

As soon as these words came out, many wives and wives were eager to see their sons. So he regarded this sentence as an elixir, and hurriedly asked the maid's daughter-in-law to go over and get a few. For a while, the bride was blocked and couldn't get out. Xu Ye was also squeezed aside by the woman and smiled bitterly, and the sedan chair was crowded with people competing for the happy fruit, shouting and laughing.

Zhu Qiaoqiao and other daughters-in-law surrounded the old lady and pointed at her, and the old lady smiled happily and said, "Good thing, good thing, the more troublesome it is, the more auspicious it is." ”

Xu Hao laughed and laughed, and it was not easy to say anything, so she saw an elderly nurse, thinking about the belly of the young lady, thinking about picking up an orange, the young lady was happy to eat it, she pushed the others away, half of her body squeezed into the sedan chair, and the ripples hurriedly waved her hand and said: "Mom, it's gone." ”

The nurse searched back and forth with her faint eyes, and sure enough, the oranges were snatched clean, and she was very remorseful, and suddenly saw that there was still a pile of red in the bridegroom's arms, and she was overjoyed.

She quickly stretched out her five fingers and came to a Nine Yin Divine Claw, Xu Ye was startled, and hurriedly shouted, "Mom, let go!" Let go, I'll give you two good ones. ”

The old man who dared to love was not good at learning, and mistook the golden fruit embroidered on the groom's robe for an orange, and this grasp happened to catch the two balls on Xu Ye's lower body.

Xu Ye tried her best to arch her body in a panic, and pressed her arm hard, and it was not good to say in public that you were always in the wrong place, and she couldn't help laughing.

There was a mess in the flower hall, because the hand was stretched into the robe, and most of everyone's attention was focused on the bride in the sedan chair.

Mu Ningxue always looked at her son, and hurriedly ordered Fangchun to go over and warn the nurse to be solemn.

Fang Chun walked over and looked at it suspiciously, asked for two oranges from the girl in the back, lowered her head and whispered: "Mom, you grabbed the young master's clothes, not fruits, these two are the most auspicious fruits, you take them, don't let people know." ”

When the nurse heard this, she let go of her hand and took it, and held it in her arms, lest she be robbed, and then took it home to eat for the young lady, and really gave birth to two sons in a row. The host's family thanked her for grabbing oranges and supporting her until she was old to repay her virtue, which is also a good story quoted from Xu Ye and his wife after they got married.

Because the surname has not been handed down, later generations call it "Lao Gan Ma".

Fang Chun said to Xu Ye: "You are stupid again, what does it look like to be the groom's official today, being pulled and pulled by others?" ”

Xu Ye shook his head with a wry smile and said, "You stick out your ears and come here, I'll tell you what's going on." ”

Fang Chun listened to him whisper a few words with a red face, and Fang Chun pursed his lips and laughed to death, and soon a group of maids of the Xu family burst into laughter.

Xu Hao saw that it was almost over, and ordered the music to be played, and in an instant, the fairy sound was lingering, and the palace eunuchs of the royal court 'choir' played fine music, and the hall was quiet.

Twelve maids stood in front of the sedan chair carrying the palace maid's red gauze palace lantern, and four maids carrying incense burners and two maids holding a pair of dragon and phoenix candles walked over in clusters of Xu Ye.

The incense burner emitted a strong fragrance, and in the exclamation of the people, the rain of roses fell all over the sky, and the daughter-in-law of the young family with eight children helped the two newcomers to step out.

Xu Hao and his wife looked at each other and smiled, both remembering the scene when they got married, and Zhu Qiaoqiao couldn't help but look gloomy.

The master of ceremonies loudly invited Yang Shiqi and his wife, who were officiating, to pay tribute to the ancestors of the gods, and then said loudly: "Please invite the newlyweds to salute." ”

Worship heaven and earth, worship kings, worship high halls, worship parents, worship relatives and friends. Husbands and wives worship each other.

After taking the tea offering of ripples and small leaves, Xu Hao couldn't tell what mood he was feeling at this moment, the children have grown up, married, and are going to start living their own small lives from now on, thinking about it, they are happy for the children, and they can't help but have mixed feelings, they have finally completed the sacred duty of inheriting the lineage, and even will be a grandfather soon, but this year he is only in his early forties!

Mu Ningxue is not like this. If you don't raise a child, you don't know the kindness of your parents, holding the warm hand of your mother, Mrs. Mu, her eyes are red.

Under everyone's gaze, Xu Hao said slowly: "Filial piety comes first, you must remember the way of life." Okay, go for it. ”

Watching relatives and friends huddle the newcomer to the cave room, Xu Hao got up and said to his younger brothers: "I'm a little tired, you can entertain me for my life." ”

He went to the study alone, standing alone in the courtyard and watching the new garden full of people. The bamboo leaves with residual snow are even more verdant and lovely, sighing gently, the ripples in the dark are smart and clever, and the small leaves are gentle and deferential. The two of them have grown up together since childhood, they are like sisters, and Ye'er is blessed.

Suddenly, he pulled out a piece of paper from his sleeve and read, "Lianlian." You and I have agreed for a hundred years. If anyone dies at the age of ninety-seven, he will wait three years on the bridge. ”

Xu Hao's gaze turned to the majestic Forbidden City.

Meanwhile. In the middle of an inconspicuous empty house in the Forbidden City, there stood about twenty young girls, almost all of them looked like Peugeot, and one of them was a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl who whimpered and cried.

Gong E came over and shouted, "What are you crying for?" This is the palace, Hugh will cry and cry, if the chief steward hears it, don't say that it is you, even we can't get rid of the punishment. ”

But a show girl like a girl feels that when she enters the palace gate, it is as deep as the sea, how can she not cry when she thinks of her parents and relatives? There are those who dare not cry anymore after listening to Gong'e's words, and there are those who still cry regardless of it.

The girl's name is Shen Bi, a native of Hangzhou, and she is a show girl secretly sent in by the provincial government this year, just to please the future emperor.

Gong E scolded repeatedly, and a palace maid ran in and said, "The people from other provinces have not yet arrived, and my father-in-law said that I would leave a few days to choose." ”

After leading out more than twenty show girls in this way, Shen Bi saw that there were another hundred and ten girls who had suffered the same as herself, and they were assigned to many rooms in the courtyard near Chuxiu Palace.

There are three or four people living in the same room, and there are also seven or eight people living in the big house, Shen Bi and the two girls are arranged in a clean and tidy room, brocade quilts and silk clothes, three meals a day with fish and meat, and endless refreshments, and they are not harsh.

Shen Bi sat in front of the window looking at the blue sky in a daze, the show girls settled down and their hearts were also settled, except for a few people who still cried, most of the girls had the helplessness of making beds and getting familiar with each other.

Of course, there are also many girls who look very excited and happy, compared to their own poor life, there is food, housing and clothing in the palace, what is not satisfied?

In fact, Xu Hao made a mistake in this regard, it is true that in ancient times, everyone sympathized with the plight of the palace maids, but just like most of the eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty voluntarily entered the palace, the royal family and the imperial court also knew very well that the selection of palace maids would cause complaints from all over the country.

No emperor dares to issue an order for the draft every year, and he will not be selected once in ten or twenty years, like Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di have set their sights on the subject countries, at least half of the eunuchs are from Annam, some of the Semu people are also Jurchens and Mongols, and the same is true for palace maids, such as the famous Korean concubines, so that the people will not complain.

The emperor also knew that the draft was unpopular, but after all, someone had to serve in the palace, and with the multiplication of the royal family and the gradual expansion of the cyst of the twelve eunuchs, the number of people needed would only increase, and the solution was nothing more than to hold on to a group of people to death.

For example, at the beginning of his accession, 3,000 people were elected, and he was almost a palace maid for a lifetime, and he died in the palace, but it was precisely because of these 3,000 people that he could make small repairs every year after that, and would not alarm too many people. It's not that Xu Hao has good intentions but does the wrong thing, how many people are released every year, how many new people have to be recruited, and how will the people react to the draft girls every year?

In short, this is the dead knot of the feudal dynasty, no matter how it is reformed, someone will suffer, not to mention that foreign courts pay attention to human rights in this regard, the world is as black as a crow, and no one is nobler than anyone.

Don't you see how many black slaves were raised by the presidents, aristocrats, and middle class in the early and middle stages of the United States, not to mention that black slaves are not people, and there are slaves among white people.
