The so-called recognition of relatives means that the bride needs to offer tea to many elders on the first day, and the etiquette and titles must be correct.
This is also common in folk marriage customs.
The only difference is that the requirements of Nanzhao Kingdom are more stringent!
On the first day of any newlywed couple's wedding, all relatives within five degrees of mourning would be there, sitting in a row, waiting to give gifts to the bride and also waiting for the bride to serve tea.
In that kind of situation, if you call the wrong person, not only will you be embarrassed and socially awkward, you will also be laughed at.
Even more stingy elders from side branches or sisters-in-law will immediately have a bad impression of the bride, and it will be difficult for them to get along smoothly in the future.
Therefore, many waiting ladies, in addition to preparing embroidery and dowry, also had to memorize the family tree of their husband’s family.
It's to avoid embarrassing others on the wedding day.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Ying, a time traveler, also caught up!
Moreover, the royal family members were either rich or noble, and they were all naturally arrogant, so one would not dare to make a wrong move in front of them.
It got to the point that Shen Huijun started to worry in advance and wanted to give her some individual tutoring.
I'm afraid this is what Yan Zhuo meant?
Jiang Ying numbly let Shen Huijun have a cold face, looking like she had no desire in life, which made Shen Huijun feel extremely distressed.
He couldn't help but sit down, took her hand and patted it: "Sister Ying, we are not afraid, take it slow."
Jiang Ying wanted to say, I'm not afraid, the worst that can happen is that it will be ruined...
Shen Huijun, however, spoke as if recalling the past, "...I'm not afraid to tell you that when my aunt got married, the most nervous thing was recognizing her as a relative.
Because my aunt was born in a merchant family, she was incompatible with royal relatives like them. If she called me the wrong name, wouldn't it prove that the bumpkin had risen to become a phoenix?
So before the wedding, the family asked someone to prepare a royal family genealogy with portraits, and asked my aunt to memorize it one by one.
But think about it, how difficult it is to match a name with a face?
So my aunt thought of a way."
Speaking of this, Shen Huijun smiled unconsciously. The wrinkles at the corners of her eyes showed natural signs of aging, but it did not affect her spirit at all.
It is enough to show how spiritual she was when she was young, and she was still an absolute beauty.
Yan Xi is lucky. Not only did he marry a traveling banker, but this banker is also completely devoted to him.
While Jiang Ying was daydreaming and distracted, Shen Huijun continued to speak vigorously.
"My aunt had a bad memory since she was young. It was very difficult for her to remember so many names and faces. Until one day when she was eating radishes, her eyes lit up. She asked someone to buy a few large radishes, put up the portraits and names of your uncle's family members, and placed them in her concubine's room. In this way, she looked at them and called them every day. After half a month, she finally remembered them all. Later, she passed the stage of recognizing her relatives smoothly."
Jiang Ying was dumbfounded. "Ah? Is it so laborious?"
"Of course not. The royal family has the most people. No other noble family can compare to them. However, there must be quite a few prominent families in the capital."
Because of this custom, many families, in order to prevent their daughters from suffering, rack their brains to find in-laws with a small family.
Students from poor families became popular because of this.
Jiang Ying glanced at the crowd of women in the warm room, feeling overwhelmed. "What kind of custom is this that threatens people's lives? I might as well just not get married, okay?"
Hearing this, Shen Huijun was startled and complained, "What nonsense are you talking about, kid! You can even memorize medical books and recognize a few people, what's the big deal? Listen to your aunt, there are always more solutions than problems. At worst, you can learn from your aunt and use the radish method."
Jiang Ying rolled his eyes. "The carrot method? I'm using the cabbage method."
At this time, the son was brought over by Yan Zhuo. When the little boy saw his mother, he cried loudly.
[Mother, there are so many people today~]
[This also counts as all the old guys from previous lives, all are here! 】
[Huhu, mother, I'm telling you, these people are not good people. They are greedy and afraid of death. They are afraid that the world will not be in chaos. They are even worse at gossiping.]
He had experienced this very clearly in his previous life.
A mouth can bring a person to life, or it can kill him.
Thinking of this, the boy couldn't help but worry, [Oh, how could I forget that my mother was just a concubine in her previous life, and she didn't have to go through the process of recognizing her as a relative. Now that she's become my wife in this life, this recognition of my relative... must not be wrong, otherwise I'll be ridiculed by gossipy women behind my back like Jiang Yilin in her previous life!]
[At that time, Jiang Yilin enjoyed a glorious life, but she also had her share of troubles.]
[Just because I called the wrong fat aunt on my wedding day, I was bullied a lot afterwards. 】
[Even not being pregnant for six months became a reason for the attack.]
[Perhaps because of this, Jiang Yilin was anxious and rushed to get pregnant, even going so far as to cheat on her husband.]
[In that part, it turned out that his scumbag father was sent to guard the border, and when he came back, he became a father. Not only did he have a green head, but he also raised a child for more than ten years...]
Suddenly, Jiang Ying stood up to pick up the child, and found that Yan Zhuo had stopped abruptly, with a visibly strange expression on his face.
Like anger, like sarcasm, the self-mockery spreading from the corners of his mouth made everyone present confused.
Even Shen Huijun took a step back and poked Jiang Ying with her elbow, lowering her voice, "Is Prince Mo angry? Did Auntie just say something inappropriate?"
Jiang Ying was suspicious, and her delicate facial features began to frown.
Did Shen Huijun make Yan Zhuo unhappy?
No! When he came, Shen Huijun didn't say a word, only the monkey was talking in his heart, and she was enjoying listening to the gossip!
Fierce——
An incredible idea popped into his mind. Jiang Ying narrowed his eyes and looked at Yan Zhuo carefully, his heart filled with shock.
Could it be that... he, he, he, he, can also hear his son's voice?
How else to explain his sudden loss of composure? !
Jiang Ying knew this man very well. He was resolute and cold to the point of being ruthless. It was only after he gradually accepted her and his son that he became a better person. However, due to his years of self-cultivation, he was not likely to show his emotions.
The real Thai people are in a state of collapse without changing their expression.
She found it difficult to think of anything else that could move him so suddenly, other than the safety of herself and her son.
Then, in 뀘蔡's case, there seems to be no other possibility except that he accidentally heard that he was cuckolded and found it hard to accept it...
In addition, he and his son had exchanged blood. Thinking of this, Jiang Ying became more convinced of his guess. The corners of his mouth twitched, and he quickly stepped forward and carefully held the child over. "Prince, children's words are innocent, don't take them to heart."
After he finished speaking, the man looked down at her with a look that gradually became dark and deep.
Others, “???”
What is she talking about? What is childish talk? Did a child just speak?
