—It’s a beautiful day with a beautiful woman in your arms, what would you do
After a night of making love, her face was warm and elegant, without a trace of tiredness, but rather more beautiful. She sat in front of the mirror, the white mirror surface reflecting her fiery face, charming and graceful, with her long black hair loose on her shoulders, a color that can only be achieved when a woman is loved by a loving man.
Thinking of the wedding night last night, she couldn't help but smile knowingly.
Wen Xinya's fingers gently stroked the red brocade bag in her hand: "We will be husband and wife until we grow old together."
The cotton bag is embroidered with intertwined branches, but the embroidery is not delicate, and can even be said to be rough.
This was embroidered by her own hands.
Inside was the wedding ring between her and Si Yiyan.
In addition to the hair knot, the brocade bag also contains plum blossoms that represent faithfulness, white rice that represents wealth and purity, mung beans that represent peace and happiness, glutinous rice named Jiumi that symbolizes eternity, and lotus seeds that represent a large house with children and grandchildren, to swear to be together in heart, to love forever, to be together through life and death, and to never be separated.
This is the meaning of the knot inherited by Country Z.
"Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
Si Yiyan casually put on a piece of clothing, which was the innermost robe of his three-layer wedding dress. The long white shirt on his body made him look even more slender and strong, with a dignified and cold temperament. He was like a bamboo, calm and elegant, standing tall against the sky, with a strong character.
However, Wen Xinya couldn't help but think of his unruly and lustful side last night.
"I couldn't sleep, so I got up first."
After waking up in the morning, the man beside her was still asleep. She stared at his indescribable handsome face, and what echoed in her mind was the shocking wedding ceremony at dusk last night. She was so excited for a while that she could hardly calm down.
The sound of the chanter holding bamboo slips and reciting various complicated rituals in a rhythmic manner still echoes in my ears.
Recalling the entire wedding ceremony, she was shocked.
The washing ceremony is to receive the sacredness from heaven.
The ceremony of sharing the same prison symbolizes that the couple are of one mind and share the joys and sorrows.
The Heqin ceremony and the Heqing wine symbolize the union of husband and wife and the equal status of each other.
The ceremony of untying the ribbon and tying the hair expresses the deep affection, love and loyalty between husband and wife.
Si Yiyan walked calmly and gracefully, came behind her, and kissed her gently on the cheek: "Go to sleep for a while, there will be the ceremony of becoming a wife later. Although I don't have any elders and relatives here, the etiquette from my grandpa and grandfather is indispensable."
Yesterday, on the wedding night, he felt sorry for Xinya, who was pregnant and frail, but Xinya was more excited than him and clung to him all night long, as if she was tireless.
He knew that Xinya was too excited about the wedding to calm down, so he just let her do what she wanted.
Fortunately, he had a strong will and always maintained the last bit of rationality, and failed to break through the last line of defense, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
Of course, although he was not able to fight with real guns and bullets, the little girl's fiery enthusiasm still made him feel a different kind of satisfaction.
However, this girl's body definitely can't take it and she needs a good rest.
Wen Xinya said coquettishly: "Dad and Mom are gone, so let's just pay respect to Grandpa and Grandpa, which is considered to be complete etiquette. In two days, we will go to Nantong together to pay respect to Dad and Mom. The etiquette is not complicated. Don't think I am too delicate."
She was still immersed in the joy and excitement of her new marriage, and was unable to extricate herself, so how could she fall asleep
Besides, with Si Yiyan by her side, he always took good care of her, so she didn't worry about her health.
Si Yiyan was helpless and gently pinched her nose: "Okay, I'll do as you say, but don't be stubborn. If you feel any discomfort, you must tell me."
He just couldn't do anything with this little girl.
I always think that if I indulge her a little more and pay more attention to myself, everything will be fine.
Wen Xinya was very happy: "I want to draw autumn eyebrows today."
Autumn waves eyebrows are similar to distant mountain eyebrows, the biggest difference is that distant mountain eyebrows are slightly lighter indigo, while autumn waves eyebrows are slightly darker indigo, just like the distant green mountains, with layers of peaks and barriers, or like the rippling autumn water, full of beauty.
"Okay!" Si Yiyan picked up the pen and drew eyebrows.
Wen Xinya watched their eyes meet in the mirror, inseparable. Her face contained a soft and gentle look that was indescribable. Her clear eyes reflected the bright red in the room, as if a red lotus was blooming in full swing.
Some people say that white is the color closest to heaven.
But red is the color closest to people's hearts.
At this time, the sight of everything in red is shocking.
"Yan, what hairstyle do you think should look good on me today?"
"Yan, what kind of ornaments do you think I should wear today?"
"There are so many pieces of jewelry, I'm overwhelmed. I don't care if you help me choose."
"Oh, I actually forgot that yesterday was the Chinese Valentine's Day. I heard that the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl would cross the Milky Way and meet on the wax bridge on this day. What a pity that I didn't see it."
In the room, Wen Xinya's joyful voice never stopped. Si Yiyan always had a doting look on his face, responding to her patiently and gently.
until…
"Let's go! Grandpa and grandpa are probably waiting up ahead."
On the first day of her wedding, Wen Xinya wore a red double-breasted Hanfu skirt, tied her hair into a beautiful cross bun, and wore exquisite jewelry on her head, exuding the charm of a new bride.
Si Yiyan, however, was wearing a chestnut-colored robe. The slightly restrained color made his eyes brighten and gave him an indescribable aura.
The two of them came together, a talented man and a beautiful woman, a match made in heaven.
A hint of smile appeared on Mr. Mo's indifferent face, while Mr. Wen just laughed out loud to express his satisfaction.
"Xinya (son-in-law) greets grandpa and grandfather."
Wen Xinya and Si Yiyan knelt on the ground, raised their hands to their eyebrows, and performed the eight bows to Grandpa Wen and Grandpa Mo. This is also one of the characteristics of Han marriage. The wedding ceremony expresses the meaning of the marriage between husband and wife, while the ceremony of becoming a wife expresses the filial piety of the newlyweds to their parents and elders, further demonstrating the national culture that is the foundation of human relations.
Then the maid came over with tea.
Wen Xinya and Si Yiyan held tea and offered tea to grandpa and grandfather respectively.
In fact, there is no such process in the Han marriage ceremony. It’s just that Si Yiyan has no elder relatives, and she also has no parents. Her grandfather and grandfather are their only two relatives. So in order to express respect for them, there is the tea-serving ceremony.
After drinking the tea, Mr. Wen said quickly, "Get up quickly, don't make my little great-grandson suffer."
Mr. Mo couldn't bear to see his granddaughter tossing around like this, and his expression softened: "How can a family have so many etiquettes?"
He looked at the happy look on the faces of the newlyweds in the hall, and even though it was a faint smile, he couldn't help but feel a thrill in his heart and was happy for his granddaughter.
