Watching Him Rise Up

Chen Ming'an was the Imperial Scholar whom Princess Ronghua, Zhu Huaizhen, had set her eyes on in the Golden Imperial Hall.

However, he refused the bestowed marriage, saying, "Your Hi...

Chapter 88 Side Door

My elder sister Zhu Huaishu once said that all men are mean-spirited.

It is absolutely not allowed to pursue someone who is not yours. You have to make him want it but not be able to get it.

Zhu Huaizhen didn't believe it before, but now he believes it halfway.

Because Chen Mingan insisted on giving her a grand wedding.

The six ceremonies are: accepting the bride’s proposal, asking for the bride’s name, accepting the good news, accepting the betrothal gifts, asking for the date, and welcoming the bride.

Every etiquette is well prepared.

Zhu Huaizhen just yawned and said casually that when the time comes, he can just marry from Liutinglou to Liutinglou, carry the sedan chair and make a circle. Why go through so much trouble? Who are they doing it for?

As a result, Chen Mingan sent Zhu Huaizhen to a hot spring resort on the outskirts of the city.

Zhu Huai really liked the smooth and creamy hot spring water, and he had so much fun that he didn't bother to care about it.

But Zhu Huaizhen was very worried. Chen Mingan sent the jewelry store owner to choose a dowry for her every day.

Today it's hairpins, such as silver-gilt hollow intertwined floral double-piece hairpins, gold hairpins inlaid with tourmaline gemstones, pearls and jadeite flowers and leaves, gold hairpins inlaid with pearls and gemstones with peach and bat patterns, gold hairpins inlaid with pearls and gemstones with dragonfly patterns, gold hairpins inlaid with pearls and gemstones with pine, bamboo and longevity patterns, silver-plated gold-inlaid kingfisher coral earrings with an immortal riding a phoenix, gold filigree hairpins inlaid with gemstones with a macaque offering peaches, two-color tourmaline mother and child monkey earrings, white jade hairpins with lotus and mandarin duck patterns, and silver hairpins inlaid with golden flower patterns and kingfisher feathers, which are very rich.

Zhu Huaizhen half-closed his eyes and grabbed a handful.

Tomorrow it's hairpins, such as the silver-gilt bridge hairpin with floral pattern, the gold hairpin with inlaid gems and autumn mountain pattern, the gold hairpin with baby playing with lotus pattern, the hollow fan-shaped silver hairpin, the silver-gilt chrysanthemum pattern hairpin, the silver-footed gold phoenix hairpin, the gold hairpin with engraved floral pattern, the gilt hollow carved flower and bird pattern hairpin, the hollow silver flower hairpin with twined branches and three phoenixes and pomegranate pattern, the silver-gilt bridge hairpin with floral pattern, etc., which are particularly exquisite.

Zhu Huaizhen rubbed his eyes and pointed with his fingers.

The day after tomorrow is earrings, such as white jade twisted wire ring with agate earrings, silver-plated gold-plated kingfisher inlaid with red and yellow rice beads "Peace and Happiness Every Year" earrings, kingfisher inlaid with green jade earrings, gold filigree butterfly peach blossom pattern inlaid with gems earrings, gold filigree inlaid with gems lotus pond small scene pattern tower-shaped gourd ring, spherical hollow string of gems gold earrings, gold inlaid crystal purple eggplant earrings, gold filigree inlaid jade butterfly chasing plum blossoms earrings, gold inlaid jade gourd-shaped earrings, pure gold auspicious and abundant jade pendant earrings, etc., which are dazzling.

When it came to the buyao, Zhu Huaizhen simply took care of it all.

Tsk tsk, there's a butterfly-loving flower, pomegranate, and tortoise-shell silk-wrapped gold hairpin, a red gold filigree hairpin with rubies, a bat-patterned gold hairpin inlaid with glass beads, a nine-turn red gold hairpin with two phoenixes inlaid with jade and seven treasures, a gold filigree hairpin with two phoenixes inlaid with rubies and kingfisher feathers, a gold-threaded hairpin inlaid with five treasures and a peacock with spread tails, a rose quartz twin crabapple with wings and jade phoenix hairpin, a burnt blue peony crystal hairpin, a four-butterfly gold hairpin inlaid with red, blue, and green sapphire beads, and an emerald red gold phoenix hairpin...

Then, Chen Mingan finally stopped sending the jewelry store owner.

Unfortunately, on the eve of the wedding, Zhu Huaizhen was awakened.

It turned out that Chen Ming'an sent an old man named Quanfu to comb Zhu Huaizhen's hair.

A fully blessed elderly person means one who has both sons and daughters, a harmonious marriage with his wife, and healthy parents.

Zhu Huaizhen really wanted to find a reason to shirk responsibility.

Oh, she really wants to have a good sleep.

However, old man Quanfu pretended not to understand Zhu Huaizhen's expression, insisted on combing her hair, and then recited blessings.

Comb once to the end, comb twice to the eyebrows, comb three times to have a house full of children and grandchildren.

Haha, isn’t it interesting?

In her previous life, she had gone through all the wedding ceremonies, but ended up being humiliated.

She sighed helplessly, closed her eyes, and tears burst out one after another.
