After traveling through time, I became Han Zhang’s grandson?
Chapter 57 During the wedding (3)
Without Yu Erlang, the "mainstay", Han Ming and others unscrupulously broke through the crowd and entered Yu Mansion.
Relying on his familiarity with the geography of Yu Mansion, Han Ming took the lead and rushed into the inner room prepared to block the door.
Before he could see anything clearly, he was pushed out.
"Hey, hey, hey, that's enough. We haven't even blocked the main entrance yet. There's no need to do that now!"
Han Ming saw that it was Xiaotao beside Minglan and the head maid of Zhang's sister, and shouted hurriedly.
"The girl said that today is a big day, so Mr. Han shouldn't be so stingy. He has to pay the interest anyway!"
Xiaotao's rather broad body blocked the door tightly.
Another female servant from the Zhang family immediately leaned forward to help out, "My daughter also said that it's a beautiful day, brother Han, don't be anxious and disturb the beauty."
Han Ming was amused by the actions of these two people. He had no choice but to call the groomsmen behind him, take out the red envelope money that had been prepared long ago, and distribute it to the many female servants in the inner room.
As a result, Xiaotao and others happily greeted Han Ming and welcomed him in.
When Han Ming saw the beautiful girl in a green wedding gown, his heart skipped a beat.
Yu Yanran does look quite beautiful today, perhaps this is the added bonus brought by being a bride.
The girl covered her cheeks with the round fan, which Han Ming thought was useless. She seemed embarrassed, but also had a hint of joy in her eyes.
Taking a deep breath, Han Ming, amidst the laughter of the crowd, raised his hands and bowed to Yu Yanran, saying, "Please!"
With the help of her maid, Yu Yanran stood up from her seat and bowed slightly in return.
Then the two of them walked side by side to the main hall of the Yu Mansion, where Lord Yu, Yu Yanran's father, was sitting in the first seat.
On the other side, as for the position of the mistress, after repeated "research, consultation and discussion" by everyone, or Han Ming's insistence, Yu's father finally had no choice but to bring out the tablet of Yu Yanran's biological mother, Madam Fan.
"Please have some new tea, father-in-law!" Han Ming handed over the tea respectfully.
Looking at Han Ming, the excellent transitional son-in-law who somewhat bullied others by force, Lord Yu could only smile awkwardly at him, took the teacup, and slowly took a sip.
"From now on, you must be of one mind, respect each other, help each other sincerely, and have many children." Lord Yu looked at Han Ming and Yu Yanran with a smile.
"My son-in-law knows!"
"My daughter knows!"
Han Ming and Yu Yanran bowed to Yu's father at the same time.
The old Master Yu and his wife, who were sitting next to them, looked at the newlyweds. While they were happy, they also felt a slight sadness of parting.
Thinking back to many years ago, Yu Yanran's biological mother passed away, and Lord Yu remarried. The original eldest daughter became a redundant person in the huge Yu Mansion and was treated harshly and bullied.
The old master and his wife couldn't bear to see Yanran go, so they took her to their side and raised her bit by bit.
I originally thought that this child would be dragged down by the Yu family for the rest of her life, implicated by her black-hearted father and vicious stepmother.
And now, finally, all the hard work has paid off and happy days are about to come.
But the old couple felt deeply reluctant in their hearts.
Han Ming and Yu Yanran placed a cup of tea next to the tablet on the other side and saluted respectfully.
Seeing the procedure completed, Yu's father felt a little sad for some reason. He didn't know whether it was because of his daughter's marriage or something else.
"Okay, okay, don't miss the time, go, go." For the first time, Yu's father showed a sad expression and waved his hand with sobs.
Han Ming and Yu Yanran bowed to Yu's father, then turned around and bowed to the old Tai Shi and his wife beside them.
Neither side spoke, but Han Ming and Yu Yanran could see that the old couple had tears in their eyes and were trying hard to control their emotions.
Yanran's heart softened, and she followed her grandmother. Seeing the old lady in such a state, tears began to flow slowly from the corners of her eyes.
Old Mrs. Yu also knew how to distinguish between occasions. She slowly grabbed Yu Yanran's hand, patted it twice, and gently pushed it out, indicating that the time had come.
The emcee on the side shouted: "Bride, go out——!"
Yu Jia Erlang, who was standing outside the hall, quickly tidied up his clothes and walked to Yu Yanran who had just come out of the hall.
"Big sister, Jiro will take you out!"
Looking at Han Ming beside his sister, Yu Erlang nodded to him and slowly lowered his body, while Yu Yanran, supported by Han Ming, lay on Yu Erlang's body.
Yu Erlang carried his sister on his back and walked towards the gate step by step, while Han Ming followed behind him all the time, carefully protecting Yu Yanran, fearing that she would fall.
In ancient times, when a bride was married, she would sometimes be carried on the bridal sedan chair by her brothers. The reason for this was the same as when a bride was escorted to the bride's home by her brothers and was honored as an honored guest in the groom's family.
The purpose of these symbolic actions is to establish the authority of the husband and uncle and gain recognition from the parties involved in the marriage and society.
At the same time, I told my husband’s family that I had brothers from my mother’s family to support me.
The Han and Yu families originally didn't want to get involved in these unnecessary things, because Yu Erlang and Yu Yanran were not siblings from the same mother.
But it seemed that in order to ease the relationship between the Yu Fang family, Yu Yanran, and the Han family, Yu's father took the initiative to request that the eldest daughter, who had been treated unfairly, be married off in such a high-profile manner.
When they arrived outside the door, Yu Erlang carefully placed Yu Yanran next to the sedan chair and turned around to salute Han Ming.
"please!"
"Thank you!" Han Ming smiled slightly.
The people behind him saw the situation and shouted, "Press the sedan chair!"
Ju Cao hurriedly helped Yu Yanran into the sedan chair, and Han Ming waved his hand, signaling everyone to mount their horses and set off.
"Get up the sedan——!"
A huge team stretching for several miles slowly started to move forward. Pedestrians on both sides of the street looked at Han Ming, who was in the lead, and Yu Yanran in the sedan chair with envy.
In a two-story elegant pavilion on the street, a slightly pretty girl was leaning on her chin, looking at Han Ming on horseback in a daze.
"County Lady..." a little maid called in a low voice.
"Let's go back. It's too late and my father will be angry." The girl waved her fan lightly, stood up and left.
"This Bianjing, the scenery is really different in each season!"
The team moved slowly in the city of Bianjing until the sun was slightly setting in the west, and then the wedding procession returned to the Han family.
As the bride, Yu Yanran's sedan chair entered the house for the first time. Someone held a box filled with grains, beans, money, fruits, grass, etc., chanted incantations and blessings, and scattered them toward the door, inviting children from near and far to scramble to pick them up.
This is scattering beans, which means eliminating disasters and reporting peace.
Han Ming looked at the wedding process and secretly sighed. No wonder few people in later generations held Chinese-style weddings. It turned out that Western-style weddings were more cost-effective.
After scattering beans and grains, the newlyweds are asked to get out of the sedan chair.
After the newlyweds get off the sedan chair, they can be supported on both sides by two trusted female maids from the bride's family and step over the blue cloth strips or mats laid in front of the sedan chair (rich families use blue brocade mattresses or blue felt mats with flowers), but their feet must not touch the ground.
Han Ming lifted his skirt, strode to Yu Yanran, bent down and picked up the girl in his princess arms.
"Ah~!" Yu Yanran screamed in surprise, her little face instantly turned red all the way to her ears.
"Huh—!"
Seeing this scene, the whole audience suddenly became excited, applauding and cheering.
Among them, Gu Tingye and Lu Haoqing were the most active and shouted the loudest.
The maidservant and Ju Cao who were serving beside them were both stunned.
"Brother, you should carry the bride on your back, not hug her. You got it wrong!" The maid quickly waved her hands, trying to get Han Ming to put Yu Yanran down.
"What's the difference between carrying her on your back or holding her in your arms?" Han Ming grinned and ignored the looks of others as he carried Yu Yanran into the gate.
Only when they reached the middle gate of the mansion did Han Ming put the blushing girl down, and whispered in her ear, "Madam, we've reached the middle gate. It's time to mount your horse."
The so-called "crossing the saddle" (or sitting on the saddle) means that before the bride gets out of the sedan chair and enters the middle gate, she must first cross the saddle, which means praying for peace.
Yu Yanran was still feeling dizzy. Han Ming's surprise princess-carry attack had shattered her already weak defenses.
It was not until Han Ming reminded her softly for the second time that Yu Yanran took a deep breath and slowly stepped over the saddle.
"Enter the hall——!"
With a loud shout, Jin Rui and Ju Cao, who had been waiting for a long time, took out a big red cloth flower and placed two strings, one on the left and one on the right, in the hands of Han Ming and Yu Yanran.
Then he helped the newlyweds walk step by step towards the hall in Han's mansion.
