Xu Jiang didn't notice what she was thinking, she just paid attention to the movement outside. When she heard the crowd cheering, she fanned herself with an itch, she also wanted to watch the fun.
————Dividing Line————
The welcoming procession was blocked at the entrance of the alley.
Lou Yunchun was wearing a bright red wedding dress with a big red flower on her chest. She was surrounded by a crowd, and she heard all kinds of auspicious words and humorous jokes in her ears, all of which were festive and pleasing to the ears.
He bowed to everyone, then glanced at Hu Xu and Zeng Zhui, and called out to Old Duan with a smile, "Old Duan, give out some wedding money."
The matchmaker should have stepped forward to pass on the message, but she was leaning against Yinyin, her body as limp as a bowl of noodle soup, so how could she care? Fortunately, both parties knew each other well, and it wasn't one of those blind marriages. They were both well-intentioned and knew how to handle things. So she let them have their way; it was all for the sake of festivity and excitement.
Seeing the situation, she has to wait for a while, just in time for her to take a break and catch her breath. She has been riding all the way here and almost broke all her bones.
He was already throwing out wedding money? This groom was quite generous! The guests, young and old, regardless of gender, gathered around him.
If you can grab one or two, you will be blessed with the happiness and good fortune of the newlyweds and will have good luck in the future.
Old Duan and the patrolmen each took out a bulging lucky bag from their pockets, grabbed a handful of lucky money and scattered it to everyone.
As he scattered the seeds, he shouted, "May the Heavenly Official bless you once you scatter them!"
The wedding money tinkled to the ground, and the guests rushed forward, "Grab the wedding money!" The scene suddenly became lively.
Lou Yunchun took the opportunity to squeeze into the alley.
Trying to fish in troubled waters? No way! Zeng Zhui, Hu Xu, Shopkeeper Wang, and Liang Mo quickly stepped forward to stop him.
Zeng Zhui thought to himself, "This guy is cunning. He's using money to pave the way first, clearly not wanting to confront him and Hu Xu." He snorted and laughed. "Enough money, right? Then they won't be polite!"
Zeng Zhui glanced at Shopkeeper Wang and Hu Xu, and they both understood.
Shopkeeper Wang flicked the two wedding coins in his palm and said to Lou Yunchun, "The new son-in-law is coming home, and I'm afraid just spreading these wedding coins won't be enough to celebrate."
The word 'new son-in-law' made Lou Yunchun's heart flutter, and he immediately said to Lao Duan: "Lao Duan, spread it again."
Old Duan and the patrolmen took out a handful of wedding money and threw it into the sky, "May the lucky stars shine brightly."
The crowd started to scramble again.
Hu Xu squinted his eyes at the sky full of wedding money, then said to Zeng Zhui, "Wen Feng, I heard that the wedding money should be scattered to the number of ten, which is auspicious."
"That's right," Zeng Zhui nodded. "Ten is a lucky number, so we should throw ten. Ten is perfect." Then he shouted to the guests, "Everyone, don't you agree?"
Hearing that there was a wedding money grab, how could everyone not join in? Then they all shouted in unison: "Yes!" The sound was deafening.
Lou Yunchun had known he would be facing off against the two, so he was fully prepared. He simply waved at Old Duan and said, "Old Duan, continue. Just follow the instructions of the two champions and scatter the full ten numbers."
"Okay!" Old Duan smiled and called the patrol guards together.
Hu Xu's heart trembled slightly. Flattery wasn't Lou Yunchun's style. And now he specifically mentioned the identities of him and Zeng Zhui. Was he trying to cheat?
But before he could figure it out, Lao Duan and the patrolmen had already formed a circle and started scattering wedding money in all directions.
"Three scatters, and the house is full of gold and jade."
"Four scatterings bring good luck in all four seasons."
"Five sowings, a good harvest..."
"Ten Sa, perfect!"
Handfuls of wedding money were thrown into the air, turning into good fortune that made the guests dizzy.
Money fell like raindrops. Such a scene had only been seen in dreams. Shopkeeper Wang and Liang Mo could not help but reached out to scoop it up, not to mention Xiao Wang, Lu Zhen, and A Lai's group of small fry.
With this wedding money, you can buy several bowls of sweet soup and several pieces of snacks.
Uncle Cao and Cao Dali also went to grab some, and finally stuffed them all into Lu Zhen's small trouser pocket.
Hu Xu and Zeng Zhui were stunned. Seeing that they were still calm, Lou Yunchun called Lao Duan over and whispered a few words to him.
A sly smile flashed across Old Duan's face, and he then called on his patrol brothers to surround Hu Xu and Zeng Zhui.
The two top scorers immediately huddled together, watching them warily. What were they planning to do? Were they going to resort to force?
While the two were still guessing, the wedding money had already been thrown down on them.
As the patrolmen scattered the money, they sang: "Spreading the lucky money to the number one scholar, good luck will last forever."
It’s bad!
Seeing this, Hu Xu and Zeng Zhui hurried to hide, but lost their direction and bumped into each other. Zeng Zhui covered his forehead and cried out "Ouch", and Hu Xu also felt a little dizzy.
Seeing the two of them getting confused, Old Duan shouted, "This wedding money has the talent and luck of the top scholar. Whoever picks it up might also produce a top scholar!"
Now the guests who didn't grab the wedding money will have to come and grab it.
Hu Xu was jostled and groped all over. He covered his clothes while saying to Lou Yunchun, "Get the upper hand, take advantage of the situation, and divert the trouble away. What a brilliant plan."
Lou Yunchun bowed to him and said with a smile, "Thank you for the compliment."
"You still have the mood to praise someone?" Zeng Zhui glared at Hu Xu, then dodged the person who pounced on him while angrily shouting at Lou Yunchun, "Cunning, too cunning. If you have the guts, don't try these tricks. Let's talk about this alone!"
"Please forgive me for not discussing this today. I will definitely accompany you to the end tomorrow." Zeng Zhui was a troublemaker. He didn't know how long the discussion would end, not to mention that there was Hu Xu as well. He couldn't afford to delay any longer.
"Old Duan, let's go." Lou Yunchun asked Old Duan to use the wedding money to clear the way and scatter it on both sides of the alley to lead away the guests and make a path for the sedan chair and the gift bearers to pass.
Zeng Zhui quickly squeezed his head out of the crowd and shouted to the people who were trying to grab the wedding money, "Brother Wang! Liang Mo! Stop them quickly!"
