The costumes of the Qi Kingdom were displayed in the tomb of the Western Han Dynasty, but what Shan Qihuan saw was completely different from what Shen Yuhan was wearing now, this set of clothing is more intricately sewn, and the patterns are also different, after all, there is still a period of time difference between Shen Jiyu and Shen Yuhan, so it is possible that the patterns are different, moreover, Shen Yuhan lived in the capital city before, while Shen Jiyu lived in a much more low-key manner after the collapse of the country, so the Shen family was also different.
“Husband, if you want to see it, I’ll put it on for you, I haven’t cut your men’s suit yet, so it will take some time.” Shen Yuhan was still a bit uncomfortable being watched by Shan Qihuan, so he adjusted his belt.
The two of them were in the living room at this time, Shan Qihuan had been standing, while Shen Yuhan was sitting upright, with an elegant posture, just like Shen Ge’er back in the day.
“My set might as well be cut into wedding clothes, and on your birthday, we will perform your Qi Kingdom’s wedding rituals again, however, do you want to make it public to others?” On this matter, they only reached a consensus to do it again and hadn’t talked about the details yet, after all, this involves Shen Yuhan’s personal identity, and if they do it again, it would be difficult for them to explain it to outsiders.
Shen Yuhan shook his head: “No, it’s just a matter between the two of us.”
“Okay then, let’s celebrate the birthday normally, and we’ll hold a ceremony in the evening.” This kind of secret feeling, Shan Qihuan still has a sense of excitement.
“Um, then I have to buy some more red fabric to make wedding clothes.” Shen Yuhan planned to redo their wedding according to the Qi Kingdom’s custom with his husband.
“Okay, then I’ll accompany you to buy red clothes later.” Shan Qihuan was still frightened when he thought about what happened in the fabric market last time, and at the same time he became jealous, “There is something I never got around to asking you.”
“Just ask, what else can I hide from you?” Shen Yuhan was not afraid of his husband’s questions at all, he was honest enough with Shan Qihuan and told him everything he could think of.
Shan Qihuan was a little hesitant at this moment, he dawdled and sat down beside Shen Yuhan, picked up his belt, and played with it.
“It’s like this, wasn’t Shen Ge’er almost married to that bad old man from Chu Kingdom, the wedding clothes you wore at that time wouldn’t have been sewn by your own hands too, right?” He felt extremely bad when he thought about this, his wife was almost married.
Shen Yuhan thought he was going to ask something, but he didn’t expect it to be this question, as soon as he opened his mouth, he smelled the thick flavor of sour vinegar.
“Of course not, I’m going out on behalf of the Qi Kingdom, all the items in the wedding are according to the royal specification, I didn’t sew my own wedding clothes.” Shen Yuhan laughed and gently pinched Shan Qihuan’s chin, then leaned forward, and sniffed, “Husband, it’s so sour.”
Shan Qihuan pressed him on the sofa, not caring if it would damage the clothes his wife had sewn, which were meant to be taken off, and directly scratch the itchy flesh around his waist.
“You will be punished for laughing at your husband.” Shan Qihuan bites him on the chin and allows no objections1不由分說 (bù yóu fēn shuō): to allow no expectation; without listening to somebody’s protests; despite objections; to allow no explanation..
“It’s the truth, Husband, you’ve been jealous every day since you found out that I am Shen Ge’er.” Shen Yuhan exposed the truth with a smile, and held his face, “Where did you get so much jealousy from, it’s not like I’m going to be snatched away by anyone.”
“You won’t be snatched away by others, but you are too dazzling, and can shine wherever you go, can I not worry about it?” Shan Qihuan’s face was almost deformed by his wife’s squeezing, but he didn’t move, he was also elaborating on the fact that more and more people knew about his wife online, and there was no guarantee that he wouldn’t be recognized when he went out in the future.
“What does that have to do with anything, we share weal and woe2榮辱與共 (róng rǔ yǔ gòng): (of friends or partners) to share both the honor and the disgrace (idiom); highly intertwined; to share honor and disgrace together; share weal and woe; sharing and shouldering honor and disgrace., I represent you, I represent our family.” Shen Yuhan said gently, he had long wanted to make this clear to his husband and didn’t want him to take unnecessary pains and get worked up over an insignificant problem3鑽牛角尖 (zuān niú jiǎo jiān): lit. to penetrate into a bull’s horn (idiom); fig. to waste time on an insoluble or insignificant problem; take unnecessary pains to study an insignificant or insoluble problem; to bash one’s head against a brick wall; to split hairs; to go down a dead end; a wild goose chase; get into a blind alley; refers to a person who is stubborn and inflexible when faced with problems., “Besides, isn’t my husband more famous than me? There are so many handsome men and beautiful women around you, whether in social or work settings, and they spend more time with you than I do, I should be more jealous than you, can you see that I’ve been jealous of others? Because I believe that my husband only loves me, and will not be seduced by others, so I believe in you and feel at ease. Conversely, my husband should also have this kind of confidence in me, okay?”
To be honest, Shen Yuhan can say something like this now, is also because he has gone through several twists and turns, in the beginning, he was not as good as his own husband, let’s not mention what happened when he first came here.
“I know.” Shan Qihuan lowered his head and kissed the tip of his nose, “Going out? Go buy some clothes.”
“Go.”
“But first, I have to fill my stomach before going out.”
“Okay, breakfast is ready.”
“Who said anything about this?” Shan Qihuan smiled like a bully, and lifted his wife up from the sofa, “Today I’m going to be the king of the mountain and bring home my mistress of the fort!” You’ve put on a costume and you want to take it off? No way!
Shen Yuhan pretended to cry pitifully: “Help! You thief, let me down quickly!”
Shan Qihuan was stunned, his wife was suddenly too cooperative, and he was so excited that he quickly walked up the stairs.
“No one will come to save you even if you scream your throat out!” Shan Qihuan said that incomparable classic line.
Shen Yuhan suddenly asked: “Who has a broken throat?”
Shan Qihuan almost tripped for a second, his wife was learning too fast, and he could barely keep up!

After making trouble at home for a long time, Shan Qihuan and Shen Yuhan finally set out to buy fabrics, Shen Yuhan went directly to the shop where he had bought fabrics last time, but before they even got close, they saw a group of people taking photos outside, Shan Qihuan protected Shen Yuhan, and asked the bodyguard to go ahead and see what was going on.
When the bodyguard came back, he told them that after Shen Yuhan became famous, the cloth shop he went to when he was on the show is now attracting a large number of Internet celebrities, and there are also many tourists and fans checking in and taking photos at the cloth shop, so they will attract a crowd if they go there now.
This time it was not Shan Qihuan who was surprised by Shen Yuhan’s popularity, instead, it was Shen Yuhan himself who was a little surprised, is his influence in modern times so great?
“Why don’t we change to another store, you can touch the fabric, and the fabric store will definitely not lie to you, after all, shouldn’t we compare products4貨比三家 (huò bǐ sān jiā): to comparison shop; comparison shopping; shop around; compare different offers; From the proverb, 貨比三家不吃虧 (huò bǐ sān jiā bù chī kuī), if you compare the price of something at three different locations, you’ll never be ripped off; shop around first and you won’t get ripped off; when you buy something, ask more questions and compare more, and you won’t be deceived and suffer a loss; when buying goods, visit several stores to make comparisons, and you will be able to compare the quality and price of the goods.?” Shen Yuhan took the initiative to propose a change of location to Shan Qihuan.
“Okay, so as not to get bumped by those Internet celebrities, nowadays, Internet celebrities will just rub as long as there is traffic, there is no number.” Shan Qihuan also watches a lot of news related to Internet celebrities and is afraid that they will bump into his wife.
They put on masks and went to other stores in a low-key manner, there were expensive and cheap ones, and they skillfully avoided the Internet celebrities area.
When Shen Yuhan was choosing fabrics, he was very serious and very professional, some store owners thought they were young and wanted to fool him, but he sent them back with a few words, some of the fabrics were really of average quality, but the store blow a deluge of heavenly flowers about them.
In line with the principle of fate, Shen Yuhan and Shan Qihuan stopped at the storefront of a young girl’s shop, Shen Yuhan found the fabric he liked there, it felt good to the touch, and was of high quality, Shen Yuhan bought the fabric for the inner lining and the outer robes, he also bought two more pieces in other colors, so that he could make two more sets for himself to wear at home.
Shan Qihuan followed his wife throughout the entire trip, watching him negotiate prices elegantly, watch him skillfully select fabrics, and integrate into modern life little by little, he was neither out of place nor out of touch, who would have thought that almost a year ago, he was just an ancient person?
The two of them returned home with a full load, after that, Shen Yuhan plunged into his tailoring workshop, and Shan Qihuan couldn’t even place his feet when he walked in.
Since his wife was carefully preparing their wedding clothes, he would arrange a unique birthday party for his wife.
But how can he surprise his wife?
Shan Qihuan was a little troubled.
Half a month has passed very quickly, and Shen Yuhan still has no enthusiasm for Weibo, fans are eagerly waiting for him to publish new paintings every day, but Shen Yuhan has not released new works, some fans said that he has exhausted his talents5江郎才盡 (Jiāng láng cái jìn): Jiang Yan has exhausted his talent (idiom); fig. to have used up one’s creative powers; to have writer’s block; one’s imaginative power and creativeness have dried up; Originally pointed out that Jiang Yan had few literary titles and no good lines in his poems in his later years; (metaphorical) loss of talent. and can no longer draw good works.
However, all these have nothing to do with Shen Yuhan, he continuously worked overtime, and even skipped classes just to make the wedding clothes in time for his birthday, in addition, he also prepared Shan Qihuan’s regular clothes, red candles6紅燭 (hóng zhú): Candles and lightening are important in Chinese weddings. Dragon and phoenix candles are a sign of good luck for the couple. The candles are usually red and sometimes they are smokeless. They are said to bring magic and spirit to the ceremony. More information: Link 1, Link 2. 
, bridal veil, and other things ready for the night of his birthday.
–
In the blink of an eye, the birthday came.
Shan Qihuan and Shen Yuhan checked the list and invited a lot of friends and relatives to come to his birthday banquet.
He came up with a brilliant idea, he asked all of them to wear Hanfu to the banquet, similar to a Western masquerade party.
When he put forward this request, friends all said that Shan Qihuan was the best at playing, but only Shen Yuhan knew that his husband did this for himself.
Shen Yuhan didn’t need to do anything for the birthday banquet, Shan Qihuan hired a chef who knew how to prepare palace banquets, and there were also specialists at home to set up the banquet, everything was quietly arranged in the same way as the wedding banquet, but Shen Yuhan didn’t have any knowledge of this, his husband said that he was fully in charge of the banquet, and didn’t let him worry about it.
On the day of the birthday, the invited guests came to the door at about the same time.
Assistant Yang and Assistant Qu, who usually wore professional attire, were forced to wear Hanfu and stand at the door to do business.
After seeing each other’s clothes, both parties couldn’t help but smile knowingly and then began to ridicule each other for not being able to wear a classical atmosphere.
To tell the truth7有一說一 (yǒu yī shuō yī): “[if] there is one, say one”; to speak the truth; speak the bold truth; tell the whole truth; call a spade a spade; an Internet buzzword, a commonly used expression in e-sports commentators, which is roughly equivalent to “reasoning”., the two of them didn’t get along very well.
The first one who came running was Liu Tan, who dressed up as a wandering vigilante8俠客 (xiá kè): knight-errant; chivalrous person; Or Youxia 遊俠 (yóu xiá), (historical) knight-errant; (roleplaying games, fantasy) ranger; Youxia was a type of ancient Chinese warrior folk hero celebrated in classical Chinese poetry and fictional literature. It literally means “wandering vigilante”, but is commonly translated as “knight-errant” or less commonly as “cavalier”, “adventurer”, “soldier of fortune” or “underworld stalwart”. Of the two characters of the term, yóu (遊) literally means to “wander”, “travel” or “move around”, and xiá (俠) means someone with power who helps others in need. 
, when he arrived, he saw the two people standing at the door and was slightly startled.
Liu Tan laughed: “Hey, Lao Shan didn’t even let his subordinates go? Did they give you a raise?”
Assistant Qu said half-jokingly: “Chief Liu, please talk to the boss quickly, and ask him to give me a raise.”
Assistant Yang squinted at Assistant Qu and said: “Shouldn’t you be glad that you weren’t made to wear women’s clothing?”
Assistant Qu: “…”
The next to arrive is Shan Qixin, who hurried back from other places, he happened to be filming a costume drama, so he directly brought a set of costumes over, a set of attire of a refined scholar9文人雅士 (wén rén yǎ shì): an aloof person who is knowledgeable and well-educated. Qing literati 文人 (wén rén) were scholars in the Qing dynasty (1636-1911) educated in the Confucian curriculum, the “Four Books and Five Classics“, and sometimes called “shi” 士 (shì), scholar, and “shen” 紳 (shēn), or gentry. They were defined by their education and lifestyle, whether or not they gained their ambition of passing the Imperial examinations or becoming scholar-officials. They typically began their studies when young. Candidates who achieved the lower degree were called shengyuan 生員 (shēng yuán); those who passed the second level could take the third and highest test, held in Beijing every three years; those who passed this highest test were jinshi. 
, he also held a folding fan in his hand and recited two lines of poetry in a decent manner.
“Assistant Qu, am I worthy enough to attend my sister-in-law’s birthday banquet? Handsome, isn’t it? I’m dressed up like the talented and romantic Tang Yin10唐寅 (Táng Yín): Tang Yin, courtesy name Bohu 伯虎 (Bó Hǔ), was a Chinese painter, calligrapher, and poet of the Ming dynasty period. Even though he was born during the Ming dynasty, many of his paintings, especially those of people, were illustrated with elements from Pre-Tang to Song dynasty art. Tang Yin is one of the most notable painters in the history of Chinese art. He is one of the “Four Masters of Ming dynasty” (Ming Si Jia), which also includes Shen Zhou (1427–1509), Wen Zhengming (1470–1559) and Qiu Ying (c. 1495–1552). His influence on the art of contemporaries, like Cai Han, is notable. Tang was also a talented poet, and together with his contemporaries Wen Zhengming, Zhu Yunming (1460–1526), and Xu Zhenqing, he was one of the “Four Literary Masters of the Wuzhong Region”..”
Assistant Qu: “Young Master Qixin’s costume is quite nice.” If you had met the boss and the boss’s wife, you wouldn’t ask this stupid question.
“The compliments are not sincere at all, where are my brother and my sister-in-law?”
“Upstairs, but you can rest downstairs first, today’s banquet will not begin until the auspicious time.”
“Oh wow, my third brother is really good at playing, I understand, I can get into the act.” Shan Qixin lifted his front hem and strode into the house.
Assistant Qu wasn’t concerned about Shan Qixin’s IQ at all.
The next person who arrived early was Shan Qiyuan and his two sons, the arrival of the three seemed to be like a parent-child activity, for the first time, they saw the serious Shan Qiyuan with a fatherly smile on his face, after the divorce, his relationship with his two sons seemed to be going well, the younger son kept saying that the clothes his father picked out for him were not as good-looking as his elder brother’s.
Assistant Qu and Shan Qiyuan also knew each other, so they were directly invited in, he also emphasized that Shan Qixin was also there, the two children liked to play with their little uncle, so they competed to be the first to run off.
Shan Qiyuan laughed: “Children, love to play, they also said that they must come over to play at the third aunt’s COSPLAY birthday banquet.”
Assistant Qu: “Chief Shan said this is a unique birthday party.”
Shan Qiyuan nodded: “He always has an idea.” What he was thinking about was that Shan Qihuan really knew how to love his wife.
After he entered, the next wave of guests came, Jiang Ruolin and Wen Yan also appeared, they felt awkward standing at the door, but they immediately felt relieved after seeing Assistant Yang and Assistant Qu.
A short time later, Xiang Yulin, who was in charge of the art exhibition, also came with gifts, he was dressed simply. Handsome men looked good in anything.
A few of Shen Yuhan’s friends of the same age were also there, among them was Wen You.
The guests arrived one by one, all of them were friends of Shan Qihuan and Shen Yuhan.
When they entered the house, they found that the so-called birthday banquet was completely different from what they had imagined.
Everyone thought it would be a masquerade party, but what they saw was the layout of an ancient banquet, with the feeling of an immersive experience.
As night falls, the lanterns are turned on11華燈初上 (huá dēng chū shàng): early evening when lanterns are first lit; when the evening lights are lit; means that a beautiful and bright lamp has just been lit. It is generally used to describe the city scene when night falls..
Red lanterns were hung in the villa, decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, it looks quite classical.
Instead of a Western-style buffet, several tables were set up on the lawn of the yard, the arrangement of guests at each table was quite reasonable, so that there would not be the uncomfortable feeling of strangers sitting together with strangers.
The yard is filled with the fragrance of flowers, and the scenery is quite pleasant, recently, the temperature is not too high, so it is not too hot to wear the Hanfu.
The chef’s apprentice is roasting a whole lamb on the rack, not only does it smell like flowers, but now it also smells of barbecue.
Shan Qixin was taking photos of his cute little niece in Hanfu, while Shan Qibing and Shan Qiyuan were talking.
“Big brother, don’t you think Yuhan’s birthday banquet is like a wedding banquet?”
Shan Qiyuan chuckled and shook his head: “Isn’t ancient fashion popular now, I guess the young people like it, Lao San is still playing enthusiastically.”
Shan Qibing could only laugh: “That’s true, in the past, he was a boring gourd, but now he has much more character.”
Liu Tan, who was standing by, had his neck stretched out from waiting: “Hey, Assistant Qu, when will Lao Shan come out? Is he an unmarried young woman getting into the sedan chair? He hasn’t come out to see us.”
Assistant Qu, who acted as the ‘butler’ today, said: “It’ll be soon.”
Assistant Yang fixed her hair in a bun and said: “Everyone has been waiting for a long time, Mr. Shan and Mr. Shen are coming downstairs.”
After waiting for such a long time, the hosts finally came out, and all the ‘guests’ craned their necks in curiosity.
The next second, everyone was dumbfounded.
They have seen what is called if you compare goods with others, you will throw them away12貨比貨得扔 (huò bǐ huò dé rēng): T/N: A proverb, the full phrase is 人比人得死，貨比貨得扔 (rén bǐ rén dé sǐ, huò bǐ huò dé rēng), If you compare people with others, you will die, if you compare goods with others, you will throw them away; comparing people with others will lead to death, and comparing goods with others will lead to throwing away; If you insist on comparing with others, you will not be able to survive; if you insist on comparing with goods, you will have no choice but to throw them all away. It means that people are the same as things, and there are good things besides good..
