At around ten o'clock in the morning, the wedding officially began.

First of all, the guests entered, and under the guidance of the shrine shrine, they entered the shrine and stood on both sides of the temple for the audience to witness.

Then the bride and groom, dressed in traditional Japanese costumes, walk to the shrine under the guidance of the priests of the shrine, and by the way, the families of both men and women are brought into the shrine.

After that, the hands are cleansed, the body and mind are cleansed, and the priest himself cleanses, reciting the special royal purification words, and using the royal coin rod to remove the calamity from the bridegroom, bride and other guests.

At this point, the prelude to the wedding is completed, and the most critical stage of contract conclusion has entered -

At the beginning, it is still presided over by the priest, chanting in front of the goddess, and then the shrine maiden in the shrine comes forward and presents a gilt sake pot with a female moth and a male moth pattern painted on the surface, and the man pours the wine into the long female moth pot held by the woman, and the woman then pours the wine in the wine pot into the wine cup handed by the shrine maiden, and according to the rhythm of three cups at a time, three rounds of wine are sacrificed to the gods, asking for the testimony and blessing of the gods, and the marriage between the two can last a long time and never wither.

After that, the shrine maiden toasts the bride and groom as the representatives of the gods on earth, and the bride and groom drink them all, indicating that the gods already know and can proclaim your vows for only witness.

The bride and groom then make their wedding vows together, exchange rings before the gods, and offer branches of poplar trees wrapped in white tissue paper to signal that people and 'gods' are connected here, and the whole ceremony is declared to be over, and the next and final stage is to be toasted.

After the ceremony, the bride and groom and their relatives can leave the venue and move to the reserved hotel to hold a banquet, which is also known as a wedding banquet, to entertain relatives and friends who are not so close.

Of course, if it's interesting, you can also stay at the shrine and take pictures!

For example, the couple Nan there. As a symbol of the affection between Emperor Meiji and Empress Shoken, and a symbol of the good relationship between husband and wife in a broad sense, Shenmu is also a tribute to anything.

The whole process was solemn and silent, except for the prayers of the priests and the sound of the oath being pronounced, there was not the slightest murmur.

In terms of solemnity and ceremony, it is better than the most formal Catholic wedding!

During the Taisho period, the Shinzen wedding, which was born after 1920, was mistaken by foreigners for the traditional culture of the island country, and was valued and appreciated in various ways.

……

In the afternoon, after Hiromi Kato's wedding banquet, Qin and Kiyoshi, who had to say goodbye to Megumi Kato, who were still helping to be busy, returned to Shinza City and returned to Inari Shrine, which his family runs.

"Sure enough, it's too much worse." Qin Heqing looked at the Inari Shrine, which was incomparable to the Meiji Shrine with a small and compact area, which covered an area of 70 hectares and had a garden garden, and couldn't help muttering helplessly and enviously.

If his family can have such a large area of land, why can't he worry about developing his own shrine?

Not to mention the iconic festivals that are famous in the region and even the whole island country, such as the Inari Headquarters in Kyoto, Sensoji Temple in Tokyo, and Ise Jingu, there will be enough confidence to undertake the wedding in front of the gods!

Where do you need to change your tricks to promote yourself, expand your ways, and find a stable source of money for your own shrine?

"Let's take care of ourselves first."

Immediately, Qin Heqing regrouped his mood, put aside all kinds of envy and jealousy in his heart, changed into a Taoist uniform, and played the role of the priest of the shrine with peace of mind, and began the official operation of the shrine.

……

It didn't take long, and it was three o'clock in the afternoon.

Almost a moment later, with a slight sound of footsteps, a man and three women, two large and two small and four figures appeared in the courtyard of the shrine, and met the eyes of Qin Heqing, who was sitting in the sales house.

The person who came was none other than the Wuwei Ryoko family that Qin and Qing had officially contacted.

As the head of the family, Ryoichi Gomi and his wife Emiko took the lead, and Ryoko Gomi, who Qin and Qing had a crush on, and Gomi Daisy, the victim of the original dog demon, walked quickly towards Qin Heqing.

"I'm sorry to disturb you, Qin Jun, please forgive me for taking the liberty of visiting." Wuwei Longyi said politely.

"Uncle Ryuichi is polite, there is nothing presumptuous or presumptuous, I am very happy that you can come, how can I be disturbed? Also, this is not the place to talk, let's go to the side hall first, and continue to talk while drinking tea. Qin Heqing walked out of the sales house and greeted Wuwei Long politely.

"Guests are as they please, Qin Jun will arrange them." Gomi said with a smile.

"Then uncle, please." Qin Heqing said, leaned over slightly, and guided the Wuwei family into the side hall of the shrine specially used to entertain distinguished guests and sat down.

Qin Heqing found the tools and served tea to the Wuwei family.

"I don't know what ...... uncle is here this time" After the greetings, Qin Heqing went straight to the point and asked about the matter.

"There are two main things, one is to formally express our family's gratitude to you Qin Jun. After all, last time it was a little too hasty, and some things were not taken into account at all, although Qin Jun himself may not care, but as a beneficiary, it is still a little uneasy not to say anything after all......" As he spoke, Wuwei Ryuichi reached into the inner pocket of his suit, took out a thick brown paper bag and put it on the tatami mat, and gently pushed it in front of Qin Heqing, "Here is 300,000 yuan, although it is not much, but it is also a little bit of our family's heart, and I hope Qin Jun can accept it." ”

"That's what Uncle meant?" Qin Heqing glanced at the paper bag on the tatami mat, and said plainly with no expression on his face.

At the same time, Ryoko Gomi on the side didn't say anything, just lowered her head expressionlessly.

I don't know what she thinks at this time.

"I know this is more cliché, it will make you Qin Jun have the idea that I am taking money to eliminate disasters, but there is no way, after all, our family is just an ordinary family, and there are no treasures or anything like that, so after thinking about it, I can only use this more cliché method to thank you." Knowing that Qin Heqing probably misunderstood something, Wuwei Long smiled bitterly and hurriedly explained.

This is not modesty, but fact!

Although his family has been inherited in the Baimu area for nearly a hundred years, and his family background also belongs to the wealthy class among the local middle class, in the final analysis, he is only rich and has some industry in his family, and there is no comparison with people like Qin Heqing who are detached from the ordinary, so compared with the two, his family really seems too ordinary.

"Okay, I'll take the money. Uncle, let's talk about the second thing. Qin Heqing was silent for a moment, nodded slightly, and asked again towards Wuwei Ryuichi.
