Senior Brother, Stop It, You Are A Villain!

Chapter 202.1

Weddings and funerals are major events in life. Among them, marriage ranks first.

It can be seen that since ancient times, weddings have been the most important event in life for most people.

At the earliest of times, the ancients believed that a wedding was a very serious matter that needed to be treated with caution.

Weddings first began during the period of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.

“In ancient times, there was no difference between men and women. Taihao began to set up marriages, using the ribbon as a gift.”

The ribbon is buckskin, which is the earliest betrothal gift. Later, on this basis, the wedding added the etiquette of “must tell the parents.”

After several developments, the Xia and Shang Dynasties added the etiquette of “welcoming the person at the court.” By the time of the Zhou Dynasty, weddings began to be completed, with systematic processes and etiquette.

Today’s Chinese weddings mostly began during the Zhou Dynasty.

In other words, the country’s marriage etiquette has a history of five thousand years. Even counting from the time of systematic marriage regulation, it has a history of more than three thousand years.

After a few thousand years of evolution, due to different customs in different places, weddings have developed differently.

Different regions have different marriage customs and gradually formed a unique wedding concept.

All kinds of processes and etiquette have been added, deleted, and added, and there have been no strict requirements and restrictions for a long time.

However, some important etiquette still needs to be strictly observed.

For example, auspicious time.

Weddings are called “weddings” because, according to the etiquette, weddings are supposed to take place at dusk. So the earliest wedding should be called “evening ceremony.”

The auspicious time for the wedding was set at exactly six o’clock in the evening.

Lin Xiaoran, on the other hand, had to leave the house at five fifteen in the evening and arrive at the city lord mansion three-quarters of an hour later.

So Lin Xiaoran still has to wait a long time before the wedding begins.

On Feng Shao’s side, he has been receiving guests since early in the morning.

This reception continued until the evening.

During this period, the flowing water seats in the city lord’s mansion have already been opened once, and the guests are drinking and chatting happily.

And what they talked about the most was Wuling City.

Before coming here, they didn’t think that a mere Wuling City was worth paying attention to. It’s just a newly built city, and the location where it was built is still so desolate. How far can it develop in the future? They came here just to give face to Yunjian Pavilion.

But after getting the Formation-Carving Brush, they didn’t think so anymore.

The Formation-Carving Brush greatly reduces the difficulty of creating small formations, which means that the difficulty of making magical items is greatly reduced. In the eyes of many people, this is not a simple item, but a golden cornucopia. If it is used well, then wealth will continue to accumulate.

The only thing that makes them dissatisfied is that at this moment, the Formation-Carving Brushes are only for gifts and not for sale!

So what does this mean?

It means that whoever makes good friends with Wuling City can get the Formation-Carving Brush. Whoever wants to be hostile to Wuling City will not be able to get the Formation-Carving Brush.

In other words, Feng Shao easily gained a firm foothold among many forces with only this small Formation-Carving Brush.

Whoever wants to take action against Wuling City in the future must not only think about the strength of Wuling City itself and the Yunjian Pavilion standing behind it, but also have to consider the ideas of those forces who want to please Wuling City.

After all, although these forces are not very powerful, they are too many!

Many people who saw this could not help but admire Feng Shao’s methods.

Among the forces that came to Wuling City, there were also quite a few who were purely perfunctory.

For example, Chunyang Villa mentioned earlier did not intend to have in-depth communication with Wuling City at all, so Tian Yu, the young master of Chunyang Villa, gave gifts that were full of perfunctory meaning.

But after the unsuccessful siege of Jiuyou Sacred Land, Feng Shao took out the engraving pen, so Tian Yu changed his mind. He suddenly discovered that it is actually very beneficial to have a good relationship with Wuling City!

So that night, Tian Yu changed the original wedding gifts and replaced them with real precious and rare items, and they were very generous.

Most of these rare items come from Tian Yu’s private collection, and a small part is temporarily purchased from other forces.

For this reason, Tian Yu was able to recover, but he was so distressed that he wanted to slap himself.

How could they tell him to be perfunctory first!

If he had brought Yangming Copper and Taishi Lingquan here, how much less would it have cost? Now, in order to prevent Wuling City from resenting him and the force behind him, Tian Yu not only has to make up for the previous gifts but also pay for more gifts.

There are many other forces as pretentious while acting respectfully as Chunyang Villa.

However, Feng Shao just laughed it off. These people, in the end, still want to make friends with each other, so there is no need to be too concerned.

At noon, taking advantage of the flow, Feng Shao met Dai Zhixin in the side hall of the city lord mansion.
