Chapter 213 Engagement
The father stood up and said: Today, my daughter Su Nuoli is having her coming-of-age ceremony. Thank you all for coming! Now, our little girl Su Nuoli’s coming-of-age ceremony officially begins! After a pause, he said, "Please let my daughter Su Nuoli come in to meet all the guests!"
Su Nuoli took small steps and walked out slowly. Next, the person who would give the praise would come out first, wash his hands, and then take his seat; the person who would receive the hairpin would come out, go to the center of the venue, face south, and bow to the guests watching the ceremony. Then she knelt down and sat on the marriage matron's seat facing west. The praiser combs her hair and then puts the comb on the south side of the mat. It becomes even more complicated afterwards.
But there were too many people looking for him at this time, so Sister Jinxuan had to take the lead in giving the praise. Grandma is the guest. So it is not that complicated.
When it was time to go straight, grandma would chant the blessing speech loudly, then kneel down (with her knees on the mat) to comb the hair of the one getting the hairpin, then stand up and return to her original position. Sister Jinxuan symbolically consecrated Su Nuoli. The one who has just received the hairpin stands up.
Su Nuoli returned to the east room, and the assistant took the clothes from Grandma Shi. Su Nuoli went into the room to change into a plain dress and skirt that matched the hairpin on her head. Then she would go out of the room wearing the ruqun and show it to the guests. Then face your relatives and perform the formal bow. This is my first time worshiping. This time, I want to express my gratitude to my parents for bringing me up.
Of course, this is also the last time today, because all subsequent worship services have been cancelled. Just keep it simple. In the end, she compromised and changed into another dress, which was very cooperative. And it's also pink. God knows Su Nuoli really likes pink.
The coming-of-age ceremony is finally over! The food was ready. The food started to be served.
Those who came to attend the coming-of-age ceremony stared at the dishes on the table with wide eyes. The four-happiness meatballs, braised pork, and these famous dishes...these are all meat dishes! This year... I've said everything, let's eat!
It has been a long time since we have eaten so much and so good food. How to prove it? Just look at how many people gather at the door! There are 10 dishes on each table, all of which are meat dishes. Who can tell how delicious it is?
When everyone had almost finished eating, Grandpa Su stood in the middle and said, "Today's dishes are so rich because today is a double celebration. Today is also my granddaughter's engagement day, so you can have a double celebration meal by eating this! Let's all get some joy!"
뀖뀖, I asked you to take out the 놅 candy! Each family is given 6 pills, and each doorman is given 2 pills. Give us some heat! ”
Men didn't even think that he could still eat candy. This Mr. Su is really generous. They all spoke festive words.
At this time, Su Nuoli had already exchanged engagement cards under the auspices of the matchmaker. Now was the time to accept everyone's blessings. Grandpa Su spoke first: "My dear daughter is engaged today, so she is married. But the date of her marriage has not been determined yet, so you must treat my dear daughter well. I just hope that in the future you can: wear red makeup and tie a knot of love, have a pair of lotus flowers blooming on a green tree, have a pair of perfect lovers leave their little shadows, have an unparalleled national hero forge a good marriage, have cups of jade liquid exchanged and parrots flying, have music played and phoenixes danced in the fairyland, have your hearts reflected and your hands held, and be connected forever for life."
Grandma Shi: Before gaining blessings and wisdom, you must cultivate yourself to be a virtuous woman, so that you can plant fine jade in Lantian, connect the road to Peach Blossom Land with the road to Tiantai, and create a happy relationship in this life.
Grandpa Mo: "I am very satisfied with this marriage. I hope my grandson can live up to everyone's expectations and marry Li girl into the family as soon as possible. I wish you a happy marriage in advance, love and affection from an early age, and a long-lasting love and respect for each other. In short, you will be as happy as me and your grandmother in this life."
Grandpa Su: "You shameless man, you said that in front of me. If I were here, I would be the envy of the mandarin ducks and the immortals!"
