It turned out to be the day of the "Magpie Bridge Meeting", and it was really a big play. This kind of opportunity is really rare. Ruhua is very excited. The Magpie Bridge Festival is the most famous festival since the founding of the Wei Dynasty, which is said to have been founded by the founding saint. A year is divided into "spring meeting" and "autumn meeting" twice, to put it bluntly, it is actually a large-scale blind date event for young boys and girls in the upper class of the Wei Dynasty twice a year, and it is also a grand marriage event for the rich and powerful families. It is also the time of the year when the defense of men and women is the weakest. Among them, most of the participants in the "Spring Meeting" were young boys and girls who were most engaged or had not yet met in the aristocratic families. Most of the people who received the invitations were the ladies of the families of high officials from famous families, and all the children of each family over the age of twelve who had not married could go with them. Although children over the age of twelve can attend, those who can really get engaged at the meeting must be over the age of fifteen. That is to say, people under the age of 15 are going to watch the fun, perhaps it is more appropriate to say that they are going to "probation". In fact, most of the political marriages among high-ranking officials and powerful families in the Wei Dynasty were decided on such occasions. It seems that this can cover a veil of "mutual affection" in the matter of "political marriage". Every time I think of this, Ruhua will secretly ridicule this kind of superficial behavior as "to do, but also to set up a memorial archway". Obviously, the two families had agreed in secret early, just to announce it to the outside world on this occasion, but they wanted to do it as if they were "falling in love at first sight" as chess pieces, and the family would understand it. Perhaps in fact, the real "blind date" is the children who accompany their brothers and sisters to "practice" and "see the goods" for the ladies who participate in the grand event to plan for the future. The biggest difference between this kind of "Magpie Bridge Meeting" and the general banquet is that besides these main positions, there will also be people from the official media to attend. The participation of the official media is not only to enable the families to set the ideal object in their minds as soon as possible, but also to count the young men and women who have not been engaged in marriage in Beijing. The "autumn meeting" held in autumn every year is roughly the same as the "spring meeting", but the number of people attending the meeting is slightly lower than that of the ruling class of the Wei Dynasty. Generally, most of them were the children of civil officials and military generals below the third grade, and the reason why they were chosen in autumn was that most of the time when foreign officials returned to Beijing to report on their work was in autumn. Therefore, the scale of "autumn" will be particularly popular in the year of debriefing. Wuzhou Ye Shi, one of the eight most noble gates of the Wei Dynasty besides the royal family, if you attend such a grand meeting. It will definitely be a "spring meeting" rather than an "autumn meeting". As early as Ruhua knew that there was such an ancient large-scale blind date event, she always wanted to see it. Although she had a lot of opinions about this kind of "beautification processing", Drive in racking system , she had to admit that it would be a very "dramatic" thing. For a time when entertainment was in short supply. It's a good kind of entertainment, isn't it? Finally, the day of "Magpie Bridge Spring Meeting" came under the expectation of flowers, probably because God also thought it was a good day, and the rain that had fallen all night last night stopped at the moment of morning light. Ruhua specially got up early this day, and tidied herself up early with the help of Ruiniang and Green Pomelo. At her insistence, she wore the most elegant green jacket among the new clothes brought back from Dingguo Gongfu, instead of choosing the most suitable bright color shirts for her. The ornaments on his body were simpler than usual, with only a few small pearls on his head and the simplest gold lock hanging around his neck. The whole person looks a little more refreshing. After looking at her posture in the bronze mirror, she felt unusually satisfied and left her room with Hongrui. Leaving behind Rui Niang, who was somewhat confused about her sudden change of dress preferences, and the green pomelo, who calmly tidied up the house. The elder brother Ye Yunrong, who had been waiting in the front hall for a long time, was as friendly as a flower. Although he was a little surprised, he didn't say anything. Beauty's mother likes to dress up elegantly when she doesn't go out, and today's protagonist is the eldest son, so she naturally has no objection to her daughter's dress. But eldest brother Ye Yunrong is different, he also remembers his younger sister to have many attracts the human "to covet". His sister grew more and more beautiful, and in his opinion, she was the most beautiful girl.
Although he had the confidence to protect her from the harassment of those wild bees and butterflies, it was better to do less than more. He was a little uneasy about her going with him today, and although he thought she was dressed beautifully now, he still wanted to reassure him a little more than usual. Just a little, of course. Alas. Having a beautiful sister really makes the elder brother feel painful and happy. When the flowers arrive, let's go. The beautiful woman stood up and said to her eldest son. Yes When Ye Yunrong finished, he took his sister's hand and followed his mother as usual. Ruhua looked left and right and then said, "Mother.". Are there only three of us in our house? Where's Auntie. Where is the second brother? Why aren't they going? Your cousin Yunfeng got married ten years ago. Your cousin Yun Yun is far away in Wuzhou and has already made a marriage. Several other children are not in Beijing. So your aunt is not going. "As for your second brother," said the beautiful mother as she walked. Today is a day off in the college. He had indeed intended to go. And some of his friends sent him a letter last evening. Invite him to go to the forest farm for horse racing today. You also know your second brother. He won't let go of such a thing. Anyway, I don't think it's urgent for him. It doesn't matter if you don't go this year. Ruhua nodded her head. She remembered now. The second elder brother was still very interested in seeing the eldest brother's "good play" before the world. But when I came back from school yesterday, it was a little strange. He also turned around and asked Uncle Chong about the "Spring Meeting". When he heard the heavy uncle tease him that this time maybe the beautiful mother wanted to solve the problem of the two brothers together, his face could be called like seeing a ghost. She must be afraid that the beautiful mother really has such a plan. I just used an excuse to hide. It's so cute. He didn't think about it today, even if he was a mother, he just went to see it for a reference. I'm afraid they have to make a decision about their marriage in Wuzhou in the end. omracking.com |
