In the days that followed, Su Qingci spent all day in the house drawing patterns and embroidering a red veil.

I don’t know why, but at one moment I felt that the pattern was not good, and at another moment I felt that the embroidered veil was not pretty.

Liu Jingru said that she had feelings for Lu Huan, so she wanted to show her best side to him.

Su Qingci smiled, then started drawing again without refuting her words.

…

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, July 21st has arrived.

This day is the wedding day for Su Qingci and Lu Huan.

Su Songqi and Liu Jingru escorted her out the door and personally handed her over to Lu Huan.

Liu Jingru gave Lu Huan a lot of instructions, and Su Qingci listened from the side, fearing that Lu Huan would show a hint of impatience and make Liu Jingru worry about her.

But he didn't. He listened to everything one by one with a very good attitude, "Don't worry, mother-in-law, I will definitely treat Qingci well."

"If Qingci feels that there is anything wrong, I will come to the mansion in person to apologize to my mother-in-law."

Liu Jingru smiled and wiped away her tears. "Okay, okay, I feel relieved now."

"Go, go. Don't miss the auspicious time."

At this point, the bride Su Qingci, wearing an extremely gorgeous and beautiful wedding dress, with a red veil embroidered by herself on her head, got on the wedding sedan.

Xiao He walked beside the wedding sedan chair. "This wedding dress was brought here by General Lu himself. I heard that it was embroidered by twenty embroiderers from Jiangnan."

"Look how much the general cares about you."

In addition, there were more than one hundred large boxes filled with generous betrothal gifts and dowries, which moved along with the team like a mobile treasure house.

Su Qingci was sitting upright in the spacious and comfortable wedding sedan, with a smile in her eyes, as she followed the wedding procession towards General Lu's mansion.

…

Along the way, the groom Lu Huan rode a tall horse, like a shining pearl, at the front of the team.

He looked back from time to time, his eyes as sharp as torches, as if they had traveled through time and space and fell on the beauty in the sedan chair.

His eyes were full of anticipation, as if he was looking forward to meeting his bride soon.

…

Although Su Qingci was sitting in the sedan chair, he could hear the sounds outside.

There were drums and gongs being played along the way, and servants from the Lu family were distributing wedding candies and red envelopes, saying that they wanted everyone to witness their general's wedding day and share in the joy.

"General Lu is truly generous, giving such a generous red envelope. With such a generous reward, it's not an exaggeration to say that it's the prince marrying a wife."

The Lu family's servant hurriedly stopped him, saying, "Hey, don't dare to say such nonsense."

"Money is only a thing outside of one's body. General Lu just wants everyone to witness this auspicious day together and share in the joy."

"Yes, yes, then let us all wish the general and his wife a long and happy marriage!"

"Thank you very much, thank you all on behalf of our general!"

…

Su Qingci was in the sedan listening to the congratulations along the way, and at this moment, his worries about his mother were gradually soothed by the joy in his heart.

He said that as long as she agreed, he would take care of the rest, so now it was easy for Su Songqi to agree.

It seems that he is serious about it.

Then I believe he will not go back on his word on other things.

…

As Su Qingci was thinking this, the sedan chair soon stopped in front of the Lu Mansion.

As the footsteps approached, Lu Huan lifted the curtain of the sedan chair and extended his right hand towards her.

Su Qingci saw a large hand appear in her field of vision and realized that Lu Huan was going to hold her hand and lead her into the mansion.

Su Qingci slowly stretched out his hand, which was quickly grasped by Lu Huan.

"The bride is jumping over the fire basin!"

Su Qingci was stunned, not knowing whether he should step over the brazier.

The custom of the bride stepping over a fire basin to enter the groom's home has always been controversial in Nanchang.

Some families believe that when a bride steps over a fire basin to enter the groom's house, it signifies seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune, and turning disaster into blessing.

Some even believe that this can remove bad luck from the bride and prevent evil spirits from following the bride into the house, thus having the effect of exorcising evil spirits.

But some families think that this is a bad habit, and also a form of discrimination and intimidation against the bride.

To ward off evil spirits?

Who is evil? Who should be driven out?

If she crossed over, she would be admitting that she had become an evil creature.

Furthermore, if she took the leap, it would let people know that she was weak and easy to be bullied. When she got married in the future, she would be looked down upon by others.

So with this move, Su Qingci was in a difficult situation.

Su Qingci was silent for two seconds. Before she could think for long, Lu Huan walked straight forward and kicked over the brazier filled with peach wood and cinnabar.

"A bride entering my Lu Mansion never needs to step over a fire basin."

His tone didn't change at all, but Su Qingci could feel that he was angry.

Lu Huan still held her hand tightly, but his eyes swept over the matchmaker. After a warning stare, Lu Huan leaned down slightly, picked up Su Qingci horizontally, and walked straight in.

…

Su Qingci hugged Lu Huan's shoulders tightly, fearing that she would fall down in public and lose her composure.

Only when they arrived at the worship hall did Lu Huan let Su Qingci down.

Such an action was certainly inappropriate, but no one dared to say anything at the scene.

Su Qingci thought, maybe Lu Huan had made arrangements in advance.

What follows is the traditional wedding ceremony, where the newlyweds stand side by side, bowing first to heaven and earth and then to their parents.

However, when they were paying their respects to their parents, the legendary princess did not appear at their wedding.

There was only Lu Guanghe and a tablet sitting in the hall.

Lu Huan told Su Qingci in advance that he would ask his father to let the princess have a good rest in the inner house.

So today, Princess Nanjia Gao Jiarong claimed to be ill and did not attend.

Lu Huan had specifically told Lu Guang not to let her come out and cause trouble, and he also sent people to watch her.

But he didn't expect that when he just went to pick up the bride, Gao Jiarong bribed the matchmaker and made a scene of jumping over the fire basin.

This matchmaker was originally chosen by him personally.

Lu Huan chose her not only because she had many children and grandchildren, but also because the newlyweds witnessed by this matchmaker were also very loving and had both sons and daughters.

But unexpectedly, something went wrong.

Fortunately, fortunately, I have dealt with it.

…

"Couple bow to each other~"

Lu Huan and Su Qingci each held the two ends of the red silk cloth and bowed solemnly and reverently.

"Send to the bridal chamber~"

After the ceremony, Su Qingci was escorted into the magnificently decorated bridal chamber, where she waited patiently for the groom, Lu Huan, to come and lift the mysterious red veil from her head...
