After a busy morning, it was finally time to worship heaven and earth.

Bow and respect the sky, a match made in heaven, a match made in heaven;

Bow twice, respect the queen, tie the knot, and match the earth with a pair;

Bow three times to respect heaven and earth. The good relationship between heaven and earth will last forever.

Water has a source and trees have roots. After worshiping heaven and earth, you are worshiping your parents. Both Zhu Biao and Hu Qing'e lost their mothers in their early years, so in the high hall, only Zhu Chaofeng and Grandpa Hu were sitting.

The two elders took the tea and tasted it briefly. They both looked at the pair of children in the hall with comfort.

Next came the time when the couple bowed to each other. Zhu Biao and Hu Qing'e held the two ends of the red silk thread and looked at each other lovingly across a piece of red cloth.

Slowly descending and bowing lightly, this affectionate energy moved Zhang Zhenniang and the little girl Taoyao beside her to tears. Brothers Zhu Long and Zhu Hu beside her were also filled with emotions.

After the worship ceremony, Hu Qing'e, supported by Zhang Zhenniang and Xiao Taoyao, returned to the back hall and then went to Zhu Biao's small courtyard.

Next is another highlight of the day, the welcoming ceremony and singing, and the guests are seated.

Then they saw Wen Huanzhang and Qiao Daoqing standing at the door of the hall, each holding a guest list and singing one after another.

"Zhang Zhifu, Jeju, presented me with a calligraphy painting of 'A Match Made in Heaven'. I respectfully invite you to take a seat."

"Zheng Zhizhou of Yunzhou has sent you a pair of dragon and phoenix auspicious jade pendants. Please come to our table."

After he finished speaking, he saw an old man and a middle-aged scribe walking into the hall hand in hand. Among them, the middle-aged scribe, not to mention, was Cheng Wanli, the magistrate of Yunzhou who had arrived a few days ago.

Although this old man is over fifty years old, he is still full of energy, his eyes are sharp, he is not angry, and he has an aura of sharpness all over his body. This man is the famous and world-renowned Magistrate of Jeju, Zhang

Uncle night.

Zhu Biao hurriedly stepped forward and invited Zhang Shuye and Cheng Wanli to sit down at the chairman's table. The two of them gave Zhu Biao some instructions. When they were seated, they heard Zhang Shuye say in a deep voice, "Today you are big."

There are some things I don't want to say about marriage, but I just want to keep this in mind, Sanlang, everything is too much and too little is not enough."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Biao smiled and nodded, probably knowing the meaning of the other person's words.

"The envoy of Zhu Tuan of Jeju has given me a sword. I respectfully invite you to take your seat."

Then he saw a big man eight feet long walking in. His face was like a jujube, his eyes were like bright stars, and his beard was more than a foot long under his chin. He looked like Guan Gong, and he was called the Beautiful Bearded Gong in the world - Zhu Tong.

.

Zhu Biao stepped forward to welcome Zhu Tong to the table, and Zhu Tong congratulated him repeatedly with a smile on his face. For Zhu Tong, apart from his parents, the one who has the greatest kindness to him in this life is the young man in front of him. However, he is not a corrupt official and has a wealthy family.

, so he searched all over Shandong and Hebei before he found a sword as a gift.

"Magistrate Yanggu Wu has sent Mr. Yingqiu a piece of "Picture of Cold Forest and Plains". I respectfully invite you to take a seat."

"Yanggu Wudutou, I will give you a set of fox fur. Please come to our table."

Wu Song held the calligraphy and painting in one hand and a snow-white fox fur cloak in the other. He walked into the hall with his head held high, handed the two congratulatory gifts to Zhu Biao, and said straightly: "I don't understand the calligraphy and painting my brother gave me, but this snow fox fur is...

Your second brother, I spent more than half a month in the Changbai Mountain Cat last year before I got it for you."

When Zhu Biao heard this, he smiled with a smile on his face. He touched shoulders with Wu Song and said with a smile: "Second brother is so thoughtful, and I am very happy in my heart."

Hearing Huanzhang's words at the door of the hall, he paused for a moment, then saw Shi Xiu quickly coming to Zhu Biao's side and whispering: "Then Magistrate Lu of Qinghe County is here, bringing with him a heavy gift of 50,000 yuan."

Zhu Biao frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and nodded towards Wen Huanzhang at the door. Wen Huanzhang understood.

"Magistrate Lu County of Qinghe, I have sent you five hundred guan as a gift. Please come to our table."

After Wen Huanzhang finished speaking, he saw Lu Zhiyuan slowly walking into the hall with a big belly. When he saw Zhang Shuye and Cheng Wanli sitting on the chairman in front of him, he quickly stepped forward and greeted him with a flattering expression.

When the two of them saw this, Zhu Biao didn't care about him. Only Zhang Shuye and Cheng Wanli didn't look him in the eye. They just said a few casual words and the two continued chatting.

"Official official Chai of Cangzhou has sent you ten horses. Please come to our table with all due respect."

"Executive member Lu of Daming Prefecture is sending you ten huks of pearls. Please come to our table."

"Master Wu Fort of Weisheng Prefecture, I would like to present you with a pair of luminous pearls. Please come to our table."

Then I saw three middle-aged men in rich and colorful clothes walking into the hall. The one in the middle had dragon eyebrows and phoenix eyes, white teeth and red lips, and three teeth covering his mouth.

The emperor bestowed an iron certificate on the alchemy book. He showed his loyalty and wealth, and liked to recruit heroes from all over the world. Chai Jin was known as the Cangzhou whirlwind of the current Mengchang Lord.

On the left is a majestic man, with a face like a crown of jade, piercing eyes, splayed eyebrows, and a body as nine feet as silver. He is majestic. He is Lu Junyi, the jade unicorn with unparalleled guns and sticks in Daming Prefecture.

On the right is also a big man eight feet long, with a tiger's head and a swallow's forehead, ape's arms and a wolf's waist, and eyes as sharp as an eagle. He is the master of Wujiabao in Weisheng Prefecture, and the wind-splitting sword - Wu Li.

When Zhu Biao saw the three people entering, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet them and said: "The three brothers want to harm me, but this time they want to stay in Dulonggang for a longer time, so that I can fulfill my duties as a landlord."

friendship."

When Chai Jin and Lu Junyi heard this, they both burst into laughter and took their seats at the table.

Wu Li had a bitter look on her face, stretched out her hand to hold Zhu Biao, and said in a low voice: "Brother Xian, this time Wu is not just here to congratulate you, but is bringing his whole family to join you."

Zhu Biao was shocked and asked: "But because of that Tian Hu?"

Wu Li nodded and said: "I don't know where Tian Hu learned that my sister is very beautiful and wanted to take her as his wife, but that guy is now a robber and has a relationship with a certain righteous daughter Qiong Ying who killed her father."

How could Wu agree to take revenge on you, so he took this opportunity to come to you with his whole family and half his life savings."

Hearing this, Zhu Biao knew what he was talking about and said, "Tian Hu, I will treat him to a drink sooner or later to avenge that girl Qiong Ying for killing her father. When my brother comes to Dulonggang, he feels like he is at home."

, I will ask people to find a larger yard later, settle my sister-in-law and the others first, and we will talk about other things another day."

After hearing Zhu Biao's words, Wu Li was determined and sat down without saying much.

...

After the singing ceremony to welcome the guests, the hall was already filled with guests, filled with laughter, and fine wines and delicacies were being brought into the hall one after another.

In front of the hall door, Wen Huanzhang closed the gift list and said meaningfully to Qiao Daoqing on the side: "How about it, Chief Qiao, what do you see?"

Hearing this, Qiao Daoqing was silent for a moment and sighed: "Young master, the situation has come true."

"These people today are just superficial. How big a network of relationships Sanlang has built over the years is probably only known to him and Qing'e, the girl who is in charge of the embroiderer for him." Wen Huanzhang.

He also sighed.

Qiao Daoqing nodded and asked Wen Huanzhang: "Mr. Wen used to be a guest of dignitaries in Tokyo, but why did he come to Zhujiazhuang in the first place?"

When Wen Huanzhang heard this, with some recollection in his eyes, he said slowly: "Yin Sanlang said ten words to me."

"Which ten words?"

"Build the wall high, store up food widely, and plan it slowly."
