Chapter 232: Yan Yue’s Wedding (Part 2)

Shen Yu looked confused. What was this?

He scratched his hair, but couldn't think of anything.

Xie Yan said: "It is 'map'."

"That's correct."

Seeing Li Sandong raising the tray again, Shen Yu immediately put his arm around Li Sandong and stuffed a red envelope into his hand: "Brother-in-law, that's enough. You can withdraw from the rest of the game. We are far from the county town. If we block the door again, we will miss the auspicious time."

Li Sandong said: "Give me a few more."

Shen Yu handed over a few more, and Li Sandong stood aside with satisfaction.

Seeing that he didn't say anything and others were trying to stop him, Shen Yu quickly asked someone to throw a red envelope.

The person blocking the door bent down to pick it up, and only then did Xie Yan enter.

Li Wanyue couldn't help laughing when she heard what happened at the gate of Qingqi School.

Hearing Xie Yan coming in, Zhao Suying went to the main hall, and Wang Guixiang put the veil on Li Wanyue's head.

He and Qingqi helped each other out of the room.

When they arrived at the main hall, Li Youshan and Zhao Suying sat in the first seat, Old Man Li and Old Lady Li sat on one side, and the others stood on both sides.

Xie Yan looked at Li Wanyue. This wedding dress was tailored to fit her perfectly, showing off her curvaceous figure. He wondered how beautiful she would be today under the veil.

Li Wanyue could only see a blurry figure through the veil. She had never seen him wearing red clothes. Her heart was beating fast and she walked forward lightly.

Xie Yan handed the welcoming letter to Li Wanyue, who took it and let Qingqi take it first.

Then he served tea to Li Youshan and Zhao Suying.

After they drank tea and exchanged some words of advice, the newlyweds could say goodbye and leave.

Xie Yan held Li Wanyue's hand and walked out.

Li Youshan's eyes were red, and Zhao Suying covered her mouth with a handkerchief, not daring to cry out loud.

Li Wanyue couldn't help crying. She could hear Zhao Suying's suppressed sobs. Although they had not been together for a long time, she had already regarded them as her family and very important people here. They were really good to her.

Xie Yan seemed to sense her emotions, holding her hand tighter, and whispered: "Come back and live if you want in the future. If you want to bring your family to live in Yanyue Garden, you can do so anytime. Don't be sad."

"Um."

After leaving the main hall, Xie Yan let go of the bride's hand because the bride's brother would be needed to carry her into the bridal sedan.

Li Dachuan bent down in front of Li Wanyue and carried her out of the door until he put her in front of the sedan chair.

When everyone saw Li Wanyue's wedding dress, they all exclaimed in amazement, saying that it was so beautiful.

Among the onlookers, there were naturally people from Kaoshan Village, including Mrs. Cui and her family.

Gao Conghui's eyes turned red with jealousy. She wore silk clothes that ordinary people could not wear, embroidered with peony patterns that ordinary people could not use, and married a handsome husband and became an official's wife. Why?

Why was Li Wanyue able to live such a happy life after leaving the Gao family, while they continued to live in poverty?

Ding Hong felt envious and regretful. If she had known that Li Wanyue would be like this, she should have been nicer to her. This way, she would remember her kindness and give herself some benefits.

Look at the life of the villagers in Daohua Village today. Even the roads in the village have been paved into clean bluestone roads.

Look at the Gao family, they are getting worse and worse.

Gao Zhiyuan couldn't tell how he felt. The person he once looked down upon had long since become someone he could not reach, and he could only hide aside and watch, without even the courage to step forward.

Li Wanyue sat in the sedan chair, Qingqi tied a small bronze mirror to the side of the sedan chair, and then stood beside the sedan chair. Xie Yan rode on the horse, the matchmaker shouted loudly, firecrackers and ceremonial music sounded at the same time, and the team moved forward slowly.

Shen Yu and several guards took small baskets filled with copper coins, red dates, longan and candies, and scattered them around.

Everyone went to pick it up.

Later, the dowry was carried out of the door one load at a time. Someone stood aside and counted them. The expression on his face became more and more shocked. There were a total of fifty loads.

The Li family was really generous, giving their daughter so much dowry.

It was also the first time they had seen such a scene. There were only a few such places in the entire Anping County.

For a long time afterwards, people were still talking about the grand occasion of that day.

The sedan chair swayed for an hour before entering the county town.

Although the sedan bearers carried the sedan very carefully, Li Wanyue was still dizzy from the shaking. She finally understood why she was not allowed to eat, as she was afraid that she would vomit due to the shaking.

At this time, my waist and neck hurt, and I felt uncomfortable all over.

Qingqi handed her a small porcelain bottle through the curtain of the sedan chair and said, "Miss, this is what my uncle asked me to give you. He said it can refresh your mind."

Li Wanyue took it, smelled it, and a cool smell rushed to her head. She felt more awake instantly and didn't feel so uncomfortable anymore.

Hey, why didn't she think of preparing this in advance?

After another stick of incense passed, they arrived at the manor. The sedan chair stopped and a burst of firecrackers was heard again.

Then Qingqi and the matchmaker helped Li Wanyue out of the sedan chair, and the matchmaker handed the red silk to each of them to hold one end.

After entering the gate, a loud song was sung: "The newlyweds step over the fire basin, and everything will go smoothly in their marriage."

Qingqi reminded quietly and stepped over the brazier.

When they reached the front hall door, they sang loudly again: "The newlyweds step onto the saddle, and may they have a lifetime of happiness and peace."

Xie Zhenghuai and Shen Jinyu sat at the top seats in the front hall, old man Shen and his wife sat at the bottom seats, with members of the Shen and Xie families sitting on either side.

The Shen family looked at the two with smiles on their faces, while the Xie family looked curious.

Xie Yan was a heretic who gave up his bright future to come to a small place to be a county magistrate. They didn't understand.

Later, he wanted to marry a peasant girl. Although she was a county lady appointed by the emperor himself, she was still far from the wealthy families in the capital.

But that’s okay, it won’t affect them at all.

"On an auspicious day, the house is full of splendor, the couple is in perfect harmony, the couple is a perfect match, and the newlyweds pay homage to heaven and earth."

With a loud singing, the two of them bowed to heaven and earth, and Xie Yan held Li Wanyue's hand and went to the bridal chamber.

The maids stood in a row, each holding a tray.

A maid glanced at the maid, then walked forward and said something auspicious.

Xie Yan picked up the weighing rod and lifted the veil.

Revealing a pretty face.

Li Wanyue seldom wears makeup on weekdays, but this time her makeup is so delicate that she looks even more beautiful than usual.

Li Wanyue also looked at him. The red wedding dress made him look less cold and more charming.

There was a little more brilliance in Xie Yan's eyes, and a little more restlessness in his heart.

He put down the weighing rod.

Then the nanny picked up the scissors and cut a lock of hair from each of them.

"A strand of black hair marks a century of love."

Then he tied their hair together with a red rope and put them in a red brocade bag.

Then after drinking the wedding wine, the nanny asked everyone else to leave.

Xie Yan stared at Li Wanyue for a moment and couldn't help but kiss her on the lips.

It was very gentle, but it made both of them feel suffocated physically and mentally, and their breathing became disordered.

Xie Yan's heart became even more restless. He was afraid of losing control, so he had to stop at a short taste.

Holding her hand, he said, "I finally got you married. We can be together every day from now on. I don't have to suffer from missing you anymore."

Li Wanyue smiled with her eyebrows curved. Suddenly she thought of something and said, "That's not necessarily true. I have a light sleep. If you don't sleep well, then we can only sleep in separate beds."

"What do you mean by dishonest? Touching me? Or... being excessively demanding?" Xie Yan glanced at Li Wanyue with a fiery gaze.
