Chapter 7 The Wedding Day

"Wang Xiaocao, it's actually you!"

Liu Yan took the lead and jumped out, snatching the candlestick from Wang Xiaocao's hand.

She took out the old blue cloth from the box, touched the wax on it, and looked as if she wanted to eat Wang Xiaocao.

"You actually want to ruin the girl's wedding dress, I will tear you apart!"

Yuan Wanru watched Liu Yan tearing apart Wang Xiaocao, and thought quietly about the description of this incident in the book.

The book only says that a fire broke out at night and the wedding dress was burned.

Leyouju already had servants, and Wang Min assigned a few people to help look after it. Together with the people brought by Momei Pavilion, the staff was a mixed bag.

On the wedding day, the bride had no wedding dress, which was a huge joke.

After the incident, the people at Leyouju had no time to investigate the murderer. Madam Pang hurriedly sent someone to the Lu Mansion to report to Wang Min.

Wang Min was quite capable. She found a wedding dress in just a few hours.

However, the size is not right.

When Yuan Wanru wore it, it wobbled and didn't look pretty at all.

But who dares to be picky?

After the ceremony, no trace could be found when investigating.

The original owner appeared in that rough wedding dress, which caused endless ridicule.

She was an introverted person to begin with, and from then on, she didn't dare to raise her head and became even more silent.

Thinking of this, Yuan Wanru's gaze fell on Wang Xiaocao like a knife.

"I don't have time to waste with you. If you tell the truth, I will give you a way out."

"Otherwise, I will tell Mrs. Xu to give you drugs and sell you far away, so that no one can see you from now on."

She would be getting dressed soon and didn't want to waste any more words with Wang Xiaocao.

Wang Xiaocao's body trembled, and he lay on the ground begging bitterly. His head was bruised, but he refused to say a word.

Yuan Wanru lost her patience and stood up to leave: "Madam Pang, tie him up and sell him at daybreak."

Wang Xiaocao didn't expect that the girl, who was always very easy to talk to, would be so decisive.

"Please spare my life, young lady. I'm telling you. I'm telling you. I just want you to show some mercy."

She turned pale, closed her eyes, bit her lip and said, "Someone handed me a note, threatening me to destroy the girl's wedding dress."

Yuan Wanru and Aunt Pang looked at each other and asked, "What did he threaten you with? Do you know who it was?"

Wang Xiaocao seemed to find it difficult to speak. Finally, after biting his lips until they bled, he revealed the truth.

She didn't know who was behind it.

She had an affair with a manager named Zhao in Lu Song's front yard and was caught, so she had no choice but to do what he ordered.

"I have already burned the note."

Manager Zhao is in his thirties, and his wife is also the manager of the mansion. She is always aggressive. Wang Xiaocao is so bold that she even dares to steal her man.

The man was arrested, but the mastermind behind the crime could not be found, so Yuan Wanru had to let him go for the time being.

Fortunately, the wedding dress was saved.

-

Yuan Wanru closed her eyes and let the makeup artist work on her face.

Even at this point, she didn't have the slightest sense of being a newlywed.

It's just a formality, a performance.

She and Lu Jiangnian will eventually end up in divorce.

The hero and heroine are a perfect match.

After a busy night, she gradually felt tired and almost fell asleep.

"Girl, put on your veil quickly, the eldest master is here to pick you up."

Aunt Pang supported her and went to burn incense and kneel down to worship her parents' spirit tablet.

Her eyes were red, and she hesitated to speak to Yuan Wanru. She couldn't say anything. Finally, she wiped away her tears and smiled, "The master and his wife will be very happy to see this. The young lady will be happy in the future."

Yuan Wanru thought in a somewhat rebellious way: If they could see it, I wonder if they would hate her.

Although, she came here involuntarily.

She silently promised the token that there was something fishy about the original owner falling into the water, and she would do her best to find out the truth and avenge the original owner.

I hope their family can be reunited in another dimension.

-

The auspicious time has arrived.

She lowered her head and saw a pair of men's shoes. The bright red color indicated that the man was the groom, Lu Jiangnian.

I really want to know what his expression is now.

Yuan Wanru was put into the bridal sedan. Through the curtain, she could clearly feel the hustle and bustle outside.

There were bursts of cheers and the sound of money being thrown from time to time. The onlookers picked up the money and said congratulations.

She felt empty inside.

In modern times, when she attended weddings, she had imagined what it would be like when she got married.

Now that we are really married, I don’t feel any joy or shyness at all, or even the slightest expectation.

She was absent-minded and lost in thought, but the sedan chair had already passed through the streets and returned to the Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery.

Lu Jiangnian jumped off the horse easily, walked to the door of the bridal sedan, lifted the curtain embroidered with dragons and phoenixes in gold thread, and saw the person inside, sitting upright.

Her face was hidden under the red veil, and her pair of white and tender little hands, holding a red handkerchief, made her hands look even more smooth and her skin as white as tender catkins.

Nanny Xi helped Yuan Wanru get out of the sedan chair, and Lu Jiangnian held her hand through the red silk, and the two of them walked slowly forward.

Yuan Wanru would not go wrong on the way to the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery’s Mansion even with her eyes closed.

Lu Jiangnian behaved like a human being today, and his steps were not very big. She followed behind him, and although the veil covered him, he was able to walk steadily to the wedding hall.

Wang Min has been busy for a few days, and she is in high spirits. Today she is still energetic and radiant.

There were many guests watching the ceremony, and many of them exclaimed in amazement when they saw the exquisite wedding dress on the bride.

"Mrs. Lu is really capable. She was able to buy such a beautiful wedding dress in such a short time. I will come to you to learn from you someday."

"That's right. It's so bright that it makes my eyes blur. It shows that he really loves his daughter-in-law."

Everyone present knew the bride's background, and naturally they also knew that all these clothes were bought by Wang Min.

Wang Min's eyes curved with laughter.

"I watched this child grow up. We are as close as mother and daughter. We will be a real family in the future. It is only natural that I love her."

Yuan Wanru breathed a sigh of relief. Being laughed at in public really tests one's resilience.

Fortunately, she avoided this embarrassment.

The master of ceremonies began to sing: "Bow to Heaven and Earth..."

Yuan Wanru held the red silk and bowed down.

"Bow to your parents..."

Lu Song and Wang Min said yes repeatedly, their excitement unconcealed in their voices.

"The couple bows to each other..."

The sense of ceremony is really important. She clearly felt that she was an outsider, but at this moment, she was actually a little excited.

I kept acting and I finally got into the role.

She bowed towards Lu Jiangnian.

"The ceremony is over, send her to the bridal chamber..."

Yuan Wanru was being led away when she heard a noise, and then someone shouted, "Madam Lu is back."

The marriage was arranged in a hurry. Even though Mrs. Lu was not at home, the wedding was still held in a hurry. People outside secretly made all kinds of speculations.

Unexpectedly, by such a coincidence, Mrs. Lu actually came back on the wedding day.

Yuan Wanru, under the bridal veil, was not surprised at all, because that was how it was in the book.

Not only did Mrs. Lu come back, but she was also brought with her the heroine of the book, Liang Yusong.
