This is an ancient setting, double male lead novel with a fictional backdrop, 1V1, and both protagonists are pure.
Due to a brawl between two villages, Shen Zhen accidentally met a young scho...
When the people in Shenjia Village heard this, they all made way. Everyone was accustomed to Chen Zhen's unconventional behavior, so those who originally wanted to make things difficult for He Jinshu immediately stepped back and made way when they saw this situation.
Big Brother Shen and Second Brother Shen were really disappointed with Chen Zhen's behavior. They had originally wanted to use this opportunity to make things difficult for He Jinshu, but what happened? Their own teammate was someone else's undercover, leaving them with nowhere to find fault.
After everyone made way, Chen Chen pulled He Jinshu to the main hall. Father Shen and Mother Shen were sitting on the high hall waiting for them to come over.
As soon as Chen Zhen entered the room, he knelt down and said loudly, "I bid farewell to my parents."
Chen Zhen moved so quickly that He Jinshu didn't have time to react, so after Chen Zhen finished bowing, He Jinshu was still standing there.
Seeing this, Chen Chen tugged at He Jinshu's clothes and said, "Ah Shu, don't just stand there. Hurry up and say goodbye to your parents. After that, we can set off."
He Jinshu knelt on the ground after hearing this, and then said in a somewhat cold voice: "The son-in-law bids farewell to his father-in-law and mother-in-law."
After hearing this, Father Shen and Mother Shen looked at each other, feeling a little uncomfortable. What was he calling? Father-in-law and mother-in-law? Did this scholar really not know the rules or was he just pretending not to know the rules?
Grandma He was a little anxious when she heard this. Although she knew part of the reason, why was Ah Shu so ignorant of the rules at this critical moment?
The other members of the Shen family also looked a little unhappy. There was nothing wrong in calling them father-in-law and mother-in-law, but they were more respectful than close to them. It was obvious that they did not regard them as family. No one would feel comfortable about this.
Although everyone was uncomfortable, this was the wedding that Chen Zhen had been looking forward to, and no one wanted to embarrass Chen Zhen, so no one said anything.
Seeing that He Jinshu had finished speaking, Shen Chen, who was standing by, pulled He Jinshu up and said to Shen's father and mother, "Dad and Mom, Ah Shu and I will leave now."
Father Shen nodded and said to He Jinshu, "We will leave our son, Ting, in your care from now on. Live a good life with him."
He Jinshu bowed and replied in a flat voice, "I will."
After hearing this, Old Man Shen nodded and sighed in his heart. He originally thought that this scholar was pretty good, but seeing how he was today, he didn't know whether it was right or wrong for Brother Zhen to choose him.
After bidding farewell to his parents, Chen Chen took He Jinshu's hand and walked out of the Shen family's door.
The person from the Shen family who will send Shen Chen off today is Uncle Shen San. Old Man Shen and Big Brother Shen are not allowed to go.
After walking out the door, the two came to the horse.
When he just entered, Chen Chen handed the horse to the care of a villager. At this moment, he took the reins from that person and said to He Jinshu, "Ah Shu, get on the horse quickly. Let's ride to your house together."
He Jinshu refused coldly upon hearing this: "No, you can just ride the horse, I'll lead the horse."
After hearing this, Chen Zhen directly refused: "No, I just want to ride with you. Don't you know how to get on a horse? I'll carry you up."
"Okay, Brother Zhen, just carry your husband up. He is so weak that he definitely can't get on the horse." A voice in the crowd cheered.
"Yes, carry him up." Another voice said with a smile.
Afterwards, everyone in Shenjia Village started to clamor for Chen Zhen to carry the person up.
He Jinshu's face darkened when he heard the jeers, and then he said to Chen Chen, "I'll get on the horse myself."
He was afraid that if he didn't get on the horse himself, Chen Zhen would really carry him up.
After saying this, He Jinshu took a deep breath silently, then took the reins from Chen Chen and stepped on the stirrups to get on the horse.
Apart from the time when he was carried by his father to ride a horse as a child, this was the first time in his life that he had ridden a horse by himself. Although they had horse riding and archery classes, he had never practiced horse riding and archery because his family was poor. He had only watched others ride horses and shoot arrows, so this time he got on the horse smoothly and did not do anything embarrassing.
After seeing He Jinshu get on the horse, Chen Zhen also got on the horse and sat behind He Jinshu. Then he passed his hands through He Jinshu's waist and grabbed the reins of the horse.
Then he raised his voice and said to the people of Shenjia Village: "My fellow villagers, today is the day I, Shen Chen, am getting married. Thank you for seeing me off. Don't miss me too much. I will be back in three days."
When the people of Shenjia Village heard this, no one in the crowd responded for a moment. How should they respond? Should they say congratulations on the wedding? Or welcome back?
Mother Shen looked at everyone who didn't know what to say, and suddenly felt a strange sense of balance. Finally, she was not the one who felt hurt by Shen Zhen's words.
After Chen Zhen finished speaking, he ignored everyone's reaction and rode his horse directly towards Wujia Village, followed by the wedding procession.
He did not go directly to He Jinshu's house, but rode his horse around Wujia Village, and the wedding procession also followed him around in a circle.
When the people of Wujia Village saw Chen Zhen's 24 loads of dowry, no one was not jealous. 24 loads! How much silver must that be? The He family must have been blessed to marry such a golden egg. Not to mention the money for future studies, even if she didn't work in this life, she would have no worries about food and drink.
And the wedding dress she was wearing was the most beautiful one she had ever seen in her life. The cost of these two sets of clothes was enough to last them for several years.
Chen Chen ignored the jealous looks and went straight back to the He family after walking around Wujia Village.
Because the He family had few relatives and were not familiar with the village, He Jinshu only invited a few students from the private school, the family whose land was registered under his name, the village chief's family, and the people who came to escort the bride.
There weren't too many people, five tables were just right.
The chef who cooked the food was found by Chen Zhen. He was a chef from a restaurant in the town and had some business dealings with their Shenjia Village. He came to organize the wedding banquet for Chen Zhen out of respect for the Shen family.
After arriving at the He family, Chen Zhen got off the horse and took He Jinshu off the horse as well.
Several students who came out to greet them happened to see this scene, and some of them couldn't help laughing out loud. The relationship between Brother He and this young man is really interesting. Who is the groom and who is the groom?
When He Jinshu heard this laughter, his face suddenly became even gloomier, and a feeling of anger suddenly surged in his heart. However, thinking that today was his wedding day, he still held back and just greeted several classmates with an expressionless face.
Then he waited at the door of the He family for the arrival of the wedding procession.
Soon the wedding procession arrived at the He family. After Grandma He and A'mo Qian got off the ox cart, they went straight into the He family's door.
Afterwards, the two checked again the things they had prepared before. After confirming that everything was correct, Grandma He went into the main hall and sat on the high seat, while A-Mo Qian directed He Jinshu and his wife to hold the wedding ceremony.
