Chapter 418 Banquet

When facing the young lady's brother, Elder Shan changed his previous domineering attitude and became very humble and respectful.

Song Zhenping had met Zhao Tingduo and had no objection to the marriage.

Now that I know that Elder Shan is an elder in the tribe and has come all the way in the cold wind to pick up the bride, I feel even more satisfied with the Wuda tribe.

Elder Shan is now convinced of Song Liyun and has taken the initiative to petition to come and welcome the bride.

In addition to sending the gift box, he also discussed the specific details of the wedding.

Song Liyun didn't want her marriage to be known to everyone, which would cause unnecessary trouble for her future business.

There has always been hatred between the Di tribe and the Wu Dynasty.

Captain Luo also agreed with this point.

Although Zhao Tingduo is the son of Duke Anguo, he has no official background and is not listed in the family tree. In the final analysis, he is only recognized by the Zhenbei Army in Yunzhou.

If it falls into the eyes of the noble families in the capital, it might become a handle for the emperor and Duke Anguo.

Therefore, Song Liyun planned to send all the dowry to the Balin tribe, and she would also set off from the Balin tribe instead of getting married from Baolinju.

The maids and dowries brought by Aunt Xu have been settled in the tribe.

What Elder Shan wants to tell Song Liyun now is that the wedding will be held in the Wuda tribe in Kala Mountain.

This is the most difficult thing for him.

The shortest distance is to leave the Huangsha River Valley from Suijin Town and follow the river all the way to the Mida River Valley.

The Mida City under construction in the Mida Valley is also the young lady's pasture.

However, Mida City is still in its infancy, and the surrounding tribes are newly gathered. In terms of loyalty, they are naturally not as loyal as the headquarters, and it is very difficult to survive the cold winter in the wilderness.

Mrs. Wuya meant that the marriage still needed to be held at the Wuda headquarters, and they could move out later when the time was right.

Before that, you need to live with Madam Wuya.

Song Liyun had no objection to this.

The Mida Valley had just experienced a war a year ago. Under the shade of green grass, the traces of blood and fire were still there. Now it was winter, and it was even more desolate.

Although she is not afraid of ghosts and gods, she does not want to return to the memories of the end of the world.

The place of marriage was decided, and the next problem was to get from Suijin Town to Kala Mountain.

Carrying these people and things, the journey would take more than ten days across the grassland.

With Elder Shan bringing people to pick up the bride in the Bahrain tribe, there will naturally be no problem with safety.

The dowry can be put into the space, and Elder Shan and Song Liyun are only worried about the maids and nannies.

They all came from the capital, so they probably didn't know how to ride horses.

Elder Shan said, "Young Madam, let's just have them take the carriage and travel slowly. There's no rain or snow during this period, so we just need to arrive before the first heavy snowfall!"

It seems that this is the only way, and the dowry cannot be stored in the space in front of everyone, so Song Liyun can only leave these palace maids behind.

Song Liyun's marriage is somewhat special.

The reason there is no fixed date is that we are waiting for the first heavy snow on the grassland.

Those were the most difficult days for the Wuda tribe. The old man was ambushed and seriously injured on that day, and the tribe was almost wiped out.

Now, Mrs. Wuya wants to use a lively wedding to comfort the tribesmen who passed away twenty years ago, to dispel the haze that has shrouded the Wuda tribe for decades, and to put an end to the memorial ceremony on this day every year.

As she was getting married soon, Song Liyun no longer hid the secret from the people in her business circle. She held a banquet at the Suijin Hall instead of a wedding banquet.

Tianxianglou closed down, and Lin Tao, Zhou Xiang, Zhou Sizhu and their three children came to the banquet.

Xue Zhuang, Manager Mu, Han Ming, Old Man Zhang and others were naturally entertaining guests as hosts.

Captain Luo and General Wang sat at the top seats.

Originally, they had not planned for a grand ceremony, but unexpectedly, the news of Miss Song's upcoming marriage spread, and those in Qili County who had business dealings with the Song family, those who did not, and even those who were about to join the family, all sent gifts.

Each military household also contributed money and handed it to Han Ming.

In a short while, the guild hall was packed with people, and the five tables of wine were forced to be turned into a buffet.

Xiao An was not shy. He took the role of host seriously and followed his brother to entertain the guests.

Wu Dan was also smart enough to follow Elder Shan and help deliver messages to Baolinju.

Among the servants sent by the Duke of Anguo, in addition to the beautiful maids, there was also a cook who was specifically responsible for preparing banquets.

The cooking skills of the imperial kitchen in the palace were naturally extraordinary, but they had never held a buffet banquet before, so they had to ask Zhou Sizhu and his wife and the cooks in the army for help to cope with it.

Baolinjuli entertains female guests, so there is not as much chaos as in the guild hall.

With the arrangements made by Madam Yun and Aunt Xu, and with Chuntao, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Lin Tao's wife and others all familiar with each other, everyone sat at two tables in a lively atmosphere.

Lin Tao's wife only now knew that Song Liyun was going to marry into a grassland herdsman's family.

She scolded him, "Miss Song, why didn't you tell us earlier so we could make you some clothes? It's freezing cold out there. If you leave, you'll have to run around everywhere with the yurt, and you don't know when you'll be back!"

Lin Tao and Zhou Xiang knew that Song Liyun had dealings with the Wuda tribe, but they were always cautious. Song Liyun did not express her opinion, and even her wives did not tell them.

Song Liyun smiled and said, "Don't worry, Sister Lin. Maybe I'll be back before the New Year!"

The ice cellar in Suijin Town becomes busy from the beginning of winter, and she, as the owner, cannot just sit there and do nothing.

Although Kala Mountain is far from Suijin Town, it is not difficult to go there on horseback as long as the people and horses have enough food and water on the road.

Hearing her speak so easily, Chun Tao held her newly born son in her arms and lifted her clothes to feed him in front of everyone without any scruples, saying with a smile: "That's not necessarily true. If you get pregnant right after you get married, you won't be able to move an inch!"

Her words made the women nod their heads repeatedly: "Yes! When you get married, you will be someone else's wife. You thought you would be as free as you are now."

"You are a new bride there, and you can't go back to your parents' home as you please."

"Yeah! He's been sleeping for a few days and he's already gone. That's going to make the new son-in-law miserable!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"Lin Tao's wife, you're so bold! No wonder you got pregnant right after you arrived. You must have never made Manager Lin uncomfortable."

These are the wives of military households. They are used to being rough and speak without any discrimination.

In the past, Song Liyun was an unmarried girl and seldom interacted with others, so it was not convenient for her to joke around and she was a bit restrained.

Now that Song Liyun is getting married, they also become more unrestrained.

These few words are nothing. Before going out, every bride has to learn those little books about "naked fairies fighting", which is really embarrassing.

Amidst the banter and laughter, a discordant and sarcastic remark emerged.

"Miss Song is different from us. She can earn money, so her husband's family will definitely want her to be the head of the family.

When the time comes, you can stay if you want to, or leave if you want to, without having to worry about your mother-in-law or your husband's mood. If you get angry, you can beat your husband up and then divorce him!"

That's not a nice thing to say!

Not to mention that today is Song Liyun's wedding banquet, even an ordinary girl cannot just talk about someone's divorce, and even hit her husband. Isn't this obviously a curse that the couple will not get along?

Everyone put down their chopsticks and looked at the person who spoke.
