Chapter 338: A Stunning Beauty
These powerful and crazy words stunned Li Shen instantly.
But fortunately he was not fooled.
"My mother-in-law clearly promised my father that she would go and rescue people. How could she go back on her word like this?"
Doctor Nie narrowed his eyes and looked at him. "Humph, can you find another doctor besides me? If you can't, do as I ask!"
Such a strong force left Xiao Li speechless.
He could only pout and run into the house. When he saw the not-very-thick book "Song of Herbs", he suddenly felt overwhelmed with a sense of responsibility.
He believed that the lives of those people were on his shoulders!
For them, I must work hard.
It’s just endorsement!
But it doesn't bother him!
Doctor Nie looked out the window and saw little Li Shen reciting his lessons seriously, with an appreciative smile on his face.
This child is a good candidate!

Three days passed in a flash.
The day arrived when Deng Youning and Lu Zhaoyao had agreed to pick up their bride.
Thinking that it wasn't really a daughter's wedding, the things the Han family prepared were not complete, and they were all just formalities.
Early in the morning, Han Xinxin and Ying Shi helped Deng Youning dress up, one on each side.
She wore a phoenix coronet and a bridal robe, and had flower ornaments and red lips on her face.
Deng Youning, who already had fair skin, looked even whiter in this bright red wedding dress.
But she really deserves the description of skin as white as cream.
Although they are not officially married, she is still stunningly beautiful after dressing up like this.
Han Xinxin looked at Deng Youning in the bronze mirror and said enviously, "Our Ningning is the prettiest. Lord Li is unlucky. Let him regret it!"
Deng Youning also wanted to see Li Tianzhuo regret his actions and beg her to change his mind.
It’s funny to think about it.
"However, I heard that today is the day when the envoys from the Western Frontier will enter Yuncheng. The King of Changle should go to greet them. He may not come to grab the bride."
Ying Shi went out this morning and heard the people talking about this matter. She was a little worried about her master.
When she said this, Han Xinxin frowned slightly.
"If he didn't come to grab the bride, could it be that you really wanted to marry Lu Zhaoye, who you've only known for a few days?"
Deng Youning suddenly felt unsure.
But she still chose to believe in Li Tianzhuo's feelings for her.
Soon, the sound of music was heard outside the door.
Han Xian's servant Xiwang came in to report: "My Lady, my Lady, the auspicious time has arrived. The Lu family has sent someone to pick up the bride."
It was also Deng Youning’s first time getting married, and she felt a little overwhelmed.
“So soon?”
She nervously took the round fan, covered her face with it, and walked towards the door with the help of Yingshi.
Outside the gate, Lu Zhaoye, dressed in a bright red wedding dress, was riding a horse, looking at Deng Youning who was slowly approaching, feeling quite high-spirited.
From a distance, the wedding dress made him look more handsome, but it still couldn't hide his slight highland red.
"The bride is getting on the sedan chair!"
The bride shouted loudly.
The people watching the fun around were also fascinated by Deng Youning's beauty.
"I am so lucky to have married such a beautiful bride!"
"Yes, you see, this groom is not bad, he is talented and the girl is beautiful, they are a perfect match!"
"We must have a happy marriage!"
In my ears, I can hear the blessings of the people.
Deng Youning felt that her steps towards the sedan were becoming heavier and heavier.
No, she couldn't be too selfish. She felt bad and didn't want to use Lu Zhaoye anymore.
Finally, as if she had made up her mind, she took away the round fan that was covering her face, turned around and called out Lu Zhaoye.
When Lu Zhaoye heard Deng Youning calling him, he turned back in confusion.
Deng Youning walked quickly to his horse and said, "Mr. Lu, please get off. I have something to tell you. It's just between the two of us."
Lu Zhaoye glanced at Han Xian with some confusion and found that he was also confused. He had no choice but to listen to Deng Youning's words, dismounted and went with her to a deserted place aside.
The people also talked about this.
The matchmaker was also getting anxious, as she was about to miss the auspicious time.
Deng Youning and Lu Zhaoye stood facing each other in the dark, with no one around them.
"Miss Deng, what on earth do you want to talk about now?"
"We're going to be husband and wife soon, there'll be plenty of time to talk about it later."
Lu Zhaoye couldn't help but asked with a hint of complaint.
Deng Youning bowed to him first.
"Mr. Lu, I'm sorry."
"I must tell you the truth about this marriage proposal, so you can be mentally prepared."
Deng Youning explained everything with an apology.
After hearing the last sentence, a look of disbelief flashed across Lu Zhaoye's face.
"So you have a very good relationship with your lover."
"I think he's deliberately avoiding you because he's afraid of getting you into trouble."
"But are you really sure that he will snatch the bride today?"
Deng Youning's eyes flickered.
But in the end he nodded affirmatively.
"He will definitely come. As long as he is alive, he will not allow me to marry anyone else!"
These words seemed to be spoken by Deng Youning to Lu Zhaoye, but in fact they were also a comfort to herself.
Lu Zhaoye smiled again. This was the first time in his twenty-plus years of life that he had heard such a touching love story.
It’s hard not to want to help this star-crossed couple!
"So, if Mr. Lu minds, our marriage can be cancelled. Please go home now to avoid misunderstandings when he comes to grab the bride."
Deng Youning already wants to cancel the engagement.
Lu Zhaoye smiled brightly, "Don't worry, Miss Deng. Since you are so sure that he will snatch the bride, I think he will not let you down."
He touched his chin with his rough fingers and confirmed, "Our marriage will continue. I also want to see if that man's feelings for you are really as deep as you said."
"My dear, I am deeply grateful for your kindness."
"A man of your talent will surely find a wife who will love you wholeheartedly in the future."
Deng Youning gave him a few words of advice, and the two of them walked back to the street side by side.
The wedding continues.
The music started, the sedan chair started, and the team headed towards the street where Yuan’s mansion was previously located.
The wealthy Lu Zhaoye bought the Yuan Mansion, and now it is the Lu Mansion.
Unfortunately, no matter whether it is Yuan Mansion or Lu Mansion, Deng Youning is destined not to be the hostess there!
The distance from the courtyard rented by the Han family to the Yuan Mansion is not short, and it takes nearly half an hour to walk.
Along the way, there was music and it was very lively.
The common people and children followed the team to get some food.
The Lu family's maids and Yingshi and the others all took a bamboo basket with peanuts, red dates, longans, lotus seeds and other things and threw them out. It was very lively.
When the team was halfway through the journey, the number of people and children following them gradually decreased.
When we were almost at the street where Yuan's mansion was located, there was no one on the entire street. It was extremely quiet, as if we had traveled to another time and space.
Lu Zhaoye, who was leading the group, also noticed something was wrong.
What a powerful force it must be to make all the people here disappear in an instant!
Could it be that Miss Deng’s ideal husband has come to snatch her away?
He gestured to the team to stop and looked ahead vigilantly.
It seemed to be foggy ahead. In the thick fog, another wedding procession came out with drums and gongs.
The groom, who was in the lead, wore a wedding suit that was dozens of times more magnificent than his own.
He even looks a few degrees more handsome than me.
It's like a banished immortal to the mortal world.
