Li Yu's uncle had already arrived in the capital to officiate at his wedding, and Demin specially came at noon to give him a gift of money.

He didn't include a gift list, but handed it directly to the groom, Li Yu. Li Yu took it and was stunned. "One hundred and ten taels? This...this is too much!"

On second thought, he understood: "The hundred taels were given to you by me, and the ten taels are yours?"

Demin nodded, indicating his agreement. Li Yu had never intended to get the hundred taels back, and suddenly receiving it naturally brought him some surprise, but the more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt.

"That's not right! If you take so much money as a wedding gift, won't I have to give back just as much when you get married?"

Demin coughed lightly and touched his nose. "Then it depends on your wishes."

"..." Li Yu suddenly felt that the silver note was a bit too hot to handle, and he belatedly realized that he seemed to have underestimated Demin. This kid was even more cunning than him!

However, he still had guests to entertain, so he didn't argue with him anymore, saying, "We'll settle the score later!"

The auspicious hour had arrived. After the newlyweds paid their respects to heaven and earth, the bride was sent to the bridal chamber. Li Yu was busy entertaining relatives and friends. It wasn't until evening, after seeing off the guests, that he finally had time to return to his room and catch a glimpse of the bride's beauty.

It has not been easy for the two of them to get to where they are today. As they look forward to their wedding night, Li Yu is also a little apprehensive, wondering if he can give her the joy of being a woman.

Before this, he had read many books, but when the moment actually arrived, Li Yu couldn't help but feel a little nervous, unsure of what to say first without being offensive.

After hesitating for a while, he finally said, "It's late, we should rest."

Yunfang lowered her eyes and chuckled softly, repeating what the nanny had taught her, "How about... I help you undress?"

This treatment was too high, and Li Yu was not used to it. "I often serve the Fourth Master and am not used to being served. I can unbutton my clothes myself."

As he spoke, he stood up and untied his padded vest.

Then he sat down by the tent, his hands on his knees, his back straight, sitting properly, but his eyes kept glancing at her, as if he was thinking about what to do next.

Seeing this, Yunfang chuckled and offered, "This knot is hard to untie, could you please lend me a hand?"

How could he remain unmoved when his wife had spoken up? Li Yu's eyes lit up, and he readily agreed. Then he turned to her and reached out to help her untie the knot.

After removing her wedding attire, Yunfang was now only wearing a crimson undergarment. Her delicate eyebrows, nose, and lips were exquisitely red. Her makeup was exceptionally refined, and her eyes, sparkling with allure, captivated Li Yu. When their eyes met, Li Yu was momentarily stunned.

"Yunfang, you look beautiful today!"

She glared at him and huffed, "Weren't you beautiful before?"

Realizing her slip of the tongue, Li Yu immediately corrected herself, "Beautiful! You're more beautiful every day than the day before!"

It was already October, and the nights were cold. Yunfang couldn't help but hug her arms, hinting, "It's quite cold wearing only your undergarments!"

Unexpectedly, Li Yu said, "Look at me, I was so busy that I forgot to prepare a hot water bottle for you."

He was about to get up when Yunfang stopped him, "Hey—it's our wedding night, can't you warm the bed? Why do you need a hot water bottle?"

Li Yu suddenly realized what he had done, inwardly scoffing at himself for making a foolish mistake when he was nervous. He then pulled her into the bed, lay down beside her, gazed into her eyes, and softly promised her...

"From now on, I'll be your hot water bottle, warming your bed every night."

Once inside the bed, the two whispered to each other and before they knew it, they were embracing.

To avoid embarrassing Li Yu, Yunfang had learned about how eunuchs shared a bed with the nanny in the mansion beforehand.

Even if they couldn't have sex normally, the eunuch could still use his hands. However, when the two were kissing, Yunfang suddenly felt something was wrong with him. At first, she thought it was his hands that were messing around, but his hands were clearly holding her back!

What exactly happened there?

She wanted to ask, but was too shy to speak. At the same time, Li Yu also sensed something was wrong, her eyes flashing with surprise, "Yunfang, I think... I have a feeling!"
