Traveling through the farm, I just want to earn money by farming
Chapter 276 Tan Chun’s Wedding
Zhao Jiabao was pulled by Mai Miao, and he felt both happy and scared.
He looked at Grandma Wang timidly, and felt relieved when he saw that Grandma Wang did not ask him to leave.
"I'm telling you, if you go to my house, there's no one to take care of you, and you'll have to work in the fields. If you're not happy, you'd better leave as soon as possible."
It would be a lie to say that Granny Wang didn't feel uncomfortable, and she was actually a little angry and helpless.
Seeing her like this, Zhao Jiabao was at a loss for a moment and just thought that Granny Wang didn't like him.
Mrs. Li quickly leaned over to his ear and whispered, "Why don't you thank grandma quickly? She's keeping you here. Be sensible and obedient in the future, and she won't chase you away."
Zhao Jiabao's eyes lit up and he immediately knelt down to express his gratitude to Granny Wang.
"Thank you, Grandma Wang. I will be obedient. I can work and I don't need anyone to take care of me."
"Alright, alright, get up quickly. If you keep kowtowing at every turn, others will think I, Wang Huifang, am mistreating you."
After saying that, Granny Wang ignored her and went to the ox cart on her own.
Mai Miao signaled Zhao Jiabao to catch up quickly, and she herself quickly caught up with Grandma Wang.
"Thank you, grandma."
Grandma Wang looked sideways at her granddaughter and said nothing.
But I couldn't help but feel more worried.
After handling Wang's funeral, the group returned to Chenjia Village. Before leaving, they informed the neighbors so that if anyone from the county government asked about her, they could tell them where to find her.
After returning to the village, Grandma Wang specially arranged a date to treat several families to a meal in order to thank the village chief and others for their help.
After Zhao Jiabao arrived, he rushed to wash clothes and collect firewood, helped with cleaning and feeding livestock, and was extremely diligent.
Children in rural areas become independent early, and Grandma Wang noticed his performance.
One day, "You will go to the village school tomorrow. I have already told the village chief."
This dry sentence completely eliminated Zhao Jiabao's recent anxiety.
There has been no progress at the county government office recently, and Zhao Da is nowhere to be found.
People from the gambling house did come to the door once, but Zhao Jiabao was just a six-year-old child. They wanted to use some tricks on him, but they didn't dare to be presumptuous and had to go back in disappointment.
Zhao Jiabao will stay here for the rest of his life.
Time flies so fast, and it is September in the blink of an eye.
Because Tan Chun and Xu Baoru's wedding date was set for the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, sisters Tan Yueli and Tan Yueya almost always lived at her parents' home during this time.
Chen Changjiang and Shi Shuanghu arranged their household affairs and went over to help.
Tan Xia and Tan Qiu took leave two days before their wedding and went home to help.
On the day of the wedding, everyone dressed festively.
The Tan family was also extremely generous. Even the snacks and fruits they used to entertain their guests were from Fushengji.
Originally, Qing Ning wanted to not charge any money, but Mr. Tan refused to agree, so they finally agreed on a 50% discount.
People from all over the place are willing to come and join in the fun and celebrate.
The children kept surrounding the Tan family and saying festive words. Mrs. Ye was not stingy and asked Tan Xia and Tan Qiu to grab candies for the children.
In addition to fellow villagers, neighbors and relatives, the Tan family also invited Mr. Yu, Mrs. Xue and others, just wanting to make the party lively.
After all, things have been happening one after another recently and they haven't had any time to relax.
They were also happy to come, as none of them had ever seen a farmer's wedding, and besides, everyone wanted to share in the joy of such a happy event.
The procedure here is that the eighth day of the first lunar month is the time for the bride's family to come. All the people who come are the bride's relatives and friends, who are here to add makeup to the girl and send her good wishes.
At the same time, the woman's family will also invite a matchmaker to the man's family to help set up the new house on this day. Not everyone can be a matchmaker.
The family must be happy, with many children and good fortune, and it is also a good omen and a good start.
On the second day, the groom's family was the busiest, calculating the auspicious time to set out to welcome the bride.
Tan Chun brought Meng Jinhuai, the Yu brothers, and the four Qingsong brothers with him, and he was very confident.
There was music and dancing all the way, it was so lively.
Tan Chun had already greeted Mr. Yu early and borrowed a horse carriage to use for welcoming the bride.
We also borrowed ox carts from various places. This place is not very close to the county town, so it would take some time to get there just by renting ox carts.
The fine horses and strong bulls are dressed up festively.
After entering the county town, Xu family servants were already watching them. When they saw them coming, they immediately sent someone back to report.
The front door of Xu's house was already crowded with people. When they approached, the emcee immediately ordered people to set off firecrackers.
Tan Chun and others got off their horses and were surrounded by Meng Er and others as they walked inside.
"Alas, if Mr. Tan wants to enter my Xu family and marry my daughter today, it's not easy to do so."
A young man stopped Tan Chun.
Tan Chun bowed and asked, "How would you like to treat me, sir?"
"Of course, I should ask Mr. Tan to write a poem to urge him to get ready."
When Tan Chun heard this, he thought it was not difficult, as it had been prepared long ago.
He immediately said loudly:
"The beautiful girl in the Xu Mansion is as pretty as a fairy, and she is ready to be married.
Today is an auspicious day to welcome your lover, so don’t let your lover stand in front of you for too long.
The spring breeze has arrived and the flowers are about to bloom, and the phoenix and the lovebirds are singing in harmony before our eyes.
Quickly straighten your hair and leave the embroidery pavilion, and ride in the bridal sedan together to get married."
As soon as this poem came out, everyone around praised it.
The young man also nodded with a smile, and then said, "One song is not enough, please sing another one."
The people around him started to jeer, but Tan Chun said, "My dear brothers and uncles, this poem urging me to get ready has drained all my literary talent out of me. How about something else?"
Another man said, "Okay, let me ask you something else. Mr. Tan, who will be the head of the family from now on, you two?"
Tan Chun smiled and said, "Of course my wife is the boss. I listen to her."
"Hahaha" another burst of laughter.
"Even if Madam Xu is the head of the household, Mr. Tan, aren't you afraid that others will say you're henpecked?"
"Hehe, I'm not afraid. My wife is naturally the best. If she doesn't take over the family, who will?"
Tan Chun didn't care about them. He and Xu Baoru were the ones he liked, and he was familiar with each other's personalities.
The people blocking the door were still trying to make trouble, but Qingsong and his men blocked their way and cleared a path for them.
Tan Chun took the opportunity to enter the yard, go into the main hall, and pay his respects to his father-in-law and mother-in-law.
There, the matchmaker was calculating the time and dressing Xu Baoru.
When the time comes, the bride is carried out of the house by her brothers from her natal family and put into the sedan chair. At this time, the women from the bride's family tap the groom with a stick as a warning.
In the future, you must not bully the daughter of the Xu family. This is called being a bad son-in-law.
After the bride got into the sedan chair, Tan Chun rode his horse around the carriage three times. People who came to watch the fun asked for wine, money and food from the carriage. This was called "blocking the carriage".
The bride is welcomed back here, and firecrackers are set off there to see her off.
Shopkeeper Xu and his wife were filled with reluctance to leave. They wiped away their tears again and again, feeling happy yet reluctant.
After entering the village, they played music all the way to the Tan family.
When the bride gets out of the sedan chair, she cannot walk on the ground with her feet, so someone passes her a sack and spreads it on the ground so that she can step on the sack and walk.
When they reach the main gate, many horses will cross over the saddles, which means a peaceful life after marriage.
Then they worship the stove. At this time, the groom's relatives go out from the side door and then enter from the main door, stepping on the bride's footprints to get some of the joy.
After all this, the bride is sent directly to the bridal chamber, and the account is entered at dusk.
Tan Chun was afraid that she would be hungry, so he asked Tan Qiu to prepare some food and send it to the bridal chamber.
Seeing how much the Tan family cared for her, Xu Baoru felt less uneasy.
The banquet outside was lively and people kept urging him to drink. Although some people tried to stop him, Tan Chun still drank quite a bit.
The banquet was set aside, and as the auspicious time was approaching, the main hall was quickly set up and the elders of the Tan family took their seats.
The emcee shouted: "The auspicious time has arrived"
The bride and groom formally worshipped each other in the hall, and after paying homage to heaven and earth, the newlyweds were sent to the bridal chamber together.
The happy couple spread the bed and said all kinds of auspicious words. The two drank the wedding wine together and became husband and wife from then on.
Originally, everyone outside was waiting to make trouble for the bride, but they were all sent back by Tan Chun, who said that the bride was tired today and could not make trouble.
Seeing how Tan Chun defended Xu Baoru, everyone teased and joked with him, which made Tan Chun blush.
