Chapter 51
Chapter 51
No matter what Yu Shenliu thought, under the discussion of his sister and Sheng Kong's mother, Huo Shu and Sheng Kong's flash marriage became a reality.Even Chen Yuan himself was surprised by this.Even Zhengtaohua has been playing long-distance love for several years. It's really overwhelming for two people to come to the point of discussing marriage so quickly.
"In terms of time, if you want it as soon as possible, then it's best to arrange it at the nearest." Chen Yuan said to Yu Shenliu.
Yu Shenliu looked a little frustrated. He took a notebook and recorded the main points of Chen Yuan's words on it, but he still asked, "Can't you delay? Why do I feel that if I just marry Xiaoshu off like this... I won't be reconciled." Nephew The relationship with my uncle has always been very good, especially the Huo family siblings and Yu Shenliu, who have been together like elders and peers for more than ten or twenty years, so Yu Shenliu naturally cares very much.For example, this time, even though the real parents of both parties agreed, Yu Shenliu, the uncle, was still not satisfied. He always felt that Sheng Kong was not good enough for Huo Shu, so he tried every means to delay the time.
"If it's delayed, it will take at least two months." Chen Yuan shook his head.
Yu Shenliu was surprised, "Two months!? Why?"
"Because it will be the sixth month of the lunar calendar soon. June is the first half of the year. If you marry in June, there is a saying that there is a half-month wife, which is unlucky. After June is July, and the ghost month in July. If it is a Chinese custom, the Marriage is forbidden for a month." Chen Yuan explained.Looking at the meaning of the parents of both parties, they both want to get married as soon as possible. In other cases, it is normal to set a date for marriage after one year. For Huo Shu and Sheng Kong, it seems unrealistic to delay it for two months.If you can't postpone it, you can only get married before June.
His original plan fell through.Yu Shenliu was a little disappointed, but since Chen Yuan said so, what else can he do?Also had to be bored.
Yu Shenliu: "And then?"
Chen Yuan thought for a while, then asked him: "What I want to know more is, what time of the day did you arrange to get married?"
"Of course it's in the evening. Could it be possible to get married at other times?" Yu Shenliu asked back. Isn't this a very normal thing in his opinion? Why does Chen Yuan still have to ask? "After all, our family is not like other families. We always want to try exotic styles, European weddings for a while, Indian weddings for a while, and we don't know what we are doing. We have always been in the more traditional category. After so many years, we are unconscious. The ceremony model has changed too much, the good Chinese-style evening ceremony is often mixed into strange forms, and even the professional wedding companies don’t understand what’s going on, so I don’t worry if I don’t ask you.”
In fact, although Chen Yuan read a lot of materials during this period, he really didn't inquire about the wedding.It stands to reason that this world has been different from the original world history since the Ming Dynasty, so more ancient rituals should be preserved.In ancient Chinese rituals, the so-called wedding ceremony is actually an evening ceremony, that is, a ceremony held at dusk.Naturally, it should be held at dusk.After all, Huaxia is not like Fusang who said that dusk is the time to meet the devil. Dusk is the time when yin and yang meet, which coincides with the meaning of marriage.It was after the Qing Dynasty that the evening ceremony became held during the day. Now that there is no Qing Dynasty, it is normal to continue the custom of holding the evening ceremony.In the system that Chen Yuan knew, getting married at other times was also considered unlucky. After hearing Yu Shenliu's reply that it was evening, he felt relieved.
Chen Yuan said: "Well, it's good if it's at night." If there is a problem of Yin Sheng Yang Declining Yang Sheng Yin Declining, it will not be easy to adjust later.
"Actually, there are not many details to pay attention to. After all, it is different from ancient times, and many customs are simply not feasible now. For example, in ancient times, it was not allowed to step on the threshold when entering the door. The threshold of the gate represents the father-in-law and mother-in-law. , the threshold of the house door represents the husband, and he can be restrained wherever he steps on it. There is no such thing as a threshold now." Although there are many trivial customs in ancient dark rituals, if they are implemented on the basis of metaphysics, many of them are just customs, not not There are certain rules that must be followed, so it seems easy for Chen Yuan to say it.
Seeing Yu Shenliu nodding his head to express his understanding, Chen Yuanfang went on to say: "I said before that the evening ceremony will be held in the evening, but now the evening ceremony is fine, and the clothes are more casual, so I don't need to think about whether I want Feng Guanxia or not." Or red hijab and the like, after all, these clothes were not custom-made at the beginning, but developed slowly later.” For example, almost everyone will think of the ancient evening ceremony when the woman wears the queen to wear it. The phoenix coronet and Xiapei are used, the man wears official uniforms, and there is also the aspect of the bright red color.In fact, at the very beginning, people's clothing styles and colors were strictly divided according to their grades. This was a serious violation. It was only later that the ruling class relaxed the requirements, and there were more clothing requirements for men, but women were red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. Wearing it, and the ban on the Fengguan Xiapei has also been relaxed, and it is considered an official addiction for men to wear official uniforms-otherwise, how can it be said that the four major joys in life are the time of the gold list and the wedding night in the bridal chamber?But in fact, there are still some metaphysical taboos here, such as dragon and phoenix patterns, if a person's own fate is weak, he may really not be able to afford it, and he will damage himself.
"No matter what clothes you wear, women cannot have bags or pockets. This is a folk custom, because it is said that if you have a pocket, you will take away your natal family's property." Chen Yuan shrugged, showing some disapproval, "Then it is also a folk custom, The natal family can't think that marrying a daughter is a happy thing, so a woman has to cry when she gets married. This is the so-called "crying marriage". Double Happiness can only be posted with a single word, indicating that the daughter’s marriage is a happy event, but leaving home is not a happy event. Relatively speaking, the husband’s family is a happy event of getting married and welcoming new members.”
"As for stepping over the brazier or setting off firecrackers when entering the door, it's all to get rid of the bad evil spirits that the bride met on the way from her mother's house to her husband's house. The brazier is more dangerous, so just set off firecrackers." If you really want to do this If it's a step forward, it's not that the bride's skirt was burned in the past. If Huo Shu also encountered such an accident, it would be bad.
Chen Yuan: "As the woman's side, no one who belongs to the tiger can be present when seeing off the relatives. The so-called tiger aunt will cause disharmony in the marriage. For similar reasons, aunts and sisters-in-law cannot be present, because it sounds like loneliness and harmony. Disappointing. This, feel free to do it, the phonology has changed a lot from ancient times to the present, in fact, who knows if aunt and sister-in-law were called like that? It’s just a folk custom.”
I don't know why, when Chen Yuan said that, Yu Shenliu secretly rejoiced that he was an uncle, otherwise wouldn't he come to Huo Shu's wedding?That's a pity, isn't it?If it's Chen Yuan...well, it's not an aunt or sister-in-law, it's an aunt.Fine, no problem.
"As for what Huo Shu needs to pay attention to, one is that after entering the new house, she can't lie on the bed by herself before dark, otherwise she will get sick. The second is to be careful not to step on the groom's shoes. The so-called shoes are harmonious. Even In "Peacock Flying Southeast", Liu Lanzhi had to "take off her skirt and silk shoes and go to Qingchi" before committing suicide, which means that the marriage is "disharmonious", and it's not that the newly married person treated her badly. Speaking of which, you If you are interested, why not give a pair of shoes as a wedding gift?" Chen Yuan said to Yu Shenliu with a smile, shaking off his knowledge.Wedding shoes, this is perfect.
"I hope that someone will give me a pair of shoes when I get married." Yu Shenliu muttered, and glanced at Chen Yuan inadvertently.
Chen Yuan lowered his eyes and thought about what he hadn't said, and he said jokingly, "Then how about I give it to you then?"
"Ah, that depends on whether we can give each other gifts." A sentence became more and more whispered, and in the end it was just ambiguous in his mouth. Yu Shenliu didn't know what he was thinking, so he said impulsively. After saying this kind of thing, I felt that it was wrong after speaking halfway, so I half-swallowed the second half of the sentence, making it difficult for people to hear.Up to now, Yu Shenliu completely understood that he was hesitating.On the one hand, he really hoped that Chen Yuan could understand his own thoughts, at least not tormenting the other party in his heart without knowing it. On the other hand, he was afraid of any problems after the matter was brought to light.After all, although China has allowed same-sex marriage for hundreds of years, same-sex marriage is also the norm, but looking at Chen Yuan like this, he seems to be someone who has never thought about it.
Chen Yuan was a little confused when he heard Yu Shenliu's vague words.What did he say just now?If you can send each other? "Huh?" I always feel that the wording of this sentence is a bit strange, but probably what Yu Shenliu said is that when the two of them get married in the future, they can give gifts to each other, right?
After all, the environment determines everything. Chen Yuan has lived in a world that does not recognize same-sex marriage for a long time, which makes his ideas very stubborn.Even after hearing Yu Shenliu's extremely explicit words, he couldn't realize in time that this guy was confessing his love in disguise.
"It's probably time for you to get married at your age, otherwise you won't be steady enough, even if you want to continue to climb up, it's not convenient." Chen Yuan said with a smile, "For me, it's still early, let's see if we meet "To be honest, he really never thought about the fact that he would get married. In Chen Yuan's opinion, he should just accept an apprentice and be done. It doesn't feel very realistic.
Yu Shenliu died silently.Obviously Chen Yuan heard what he said, but he subconsciously didn't think in the direction he expressed.And what does it mean that he is going to get married soon, but he is still early?This inexplicable feeling of being rejected is really uncomfortable.
However, Yu Shenliu's limit was reached just now, and he didn't have the courage to make him say something blatantly.To put it bluntly, this guy is actually an innocent little virgin, even liking someone has a feeling of pure love, which makes the onlookers have a subtle urge to want to play for him and just let it go.
