Chapter 46: Wedding Consummation Under the Moon
The full moon is in the sky.
On the sandy beach near the shore, two red candles swaying in the wind danced with the joy of a newlywed couple.
The wedding cakes stacked on top of each other on the low table represent the couple's future life of overlapping and supporting each other.
Liu Fuying and Pei Zhouwu both knelt in front of the wedding table.
The clasped hands showed their piety, especially Pei Zhouwu, whose determined eyes were brighter and clearer than the full moon in the sky.
"Su Yueying and I are married today. We worship the gods to thank them for allowing us to meet and know each other."
Pei Zhouwu had a smile on his face, and his look made people's hearts beat faster.
"I bow to the gods of heaven and earth, thank heaven for this good marriage, and wish to hold your hand, grow old with you, and love you forever."
After saying this, they both bowed their heads and kowtowed.
"I bow to the bright moon, and take the bright moon as my witness. May my husband and I remain true to each other and weather the storm together."
After bowing once more, they stood up and turned to face each other.
Pei Zhouwu's eyes had never been so gentle, and his love was about to pour out of his eyes, as if no words in the world were enough to express his feelings.
"Husband and wife bow to each other, you and I are happily married today, may everything go well, and may you be happy and healthy."
After he finished speaking, Liu Fuying raised her lips and smiled at him.
He smiled back, but instantly a sour feeling choked up in his throat.
The husband and wife bowed to each other and kowtowed to the ground.
When he stood up again, Pei Zhouwu's eyes were already red.
Different from his expression, Liu Fuying couldn't hide his excited smile, thinking that everything was settled now.
"Husband." She called to him with a sweet smile.
He raised his hand to touch Liu Fuying's cheek, but before he could say anything, tears started flowing down his face.
"Husband, why are you crying?"
Liu Fuying came a few steps closer to him and wiped his tears. He lowered his head and smiled as if he felt that he was a little pretentious, but he really couldn't help it.
"I am happy." He grabbed Liu Fuying's hand.
"A Ying, you don't know how lucky I am that I had compassion and saved you. I was sitting in the yard when I heard a noise above me. I looked up and saw someone breaking off a branch and falling down. Although the branch blocked him, he was still not far from the ground. I thought that if he fell from above, he must have fallen from the top of the cliff. I don't know how many collisions he had in the process. If he fell like this again, he would most likely be dead."
He paused and choked for a moment.
"At that time, I thought, I am still in prison, who cares about me? What's the point of doing good deeds? It has nothing to do with me."
He had been holding back his tears just now, but now his tears began to fall again.
He held Liu Fuying's hand tightly.
"God still loves me, so he sent you to me."
Perhaps the happiness at this moment is too rare, so he is a little dazed. After recalling the grievances, depression and pain of the past, he feels that sincerity is more precious, so he cries uncontrollably.
But speaking of sincerity...
Liu Fuying threw herself into his arms, seemingly using the hug to comfort him.
In fact, she was afraid that Pei Zhouwu would see her guilty conscience.
The person who is hanging the curtain from heaven may not be Pei Zhouwu, but her!
She was devoting herself to having a child, so Pei Zhou Wu was brought to her. Not only could she have a child, but she could also be surrounded by a handsome man. How could this not be considered a sign of his love for her?
"Get up." Pei Zhouwu helped her up.
He turned and walked towards the pond, as if he was going to jump into the water.
"Want to go out?"
"Well, I'll take you somewhere."
Liu Fuying turned around and looked towards the direction of the guard camp outside.
"Don't worry, the Soul Devouring Incense is very potent, and they won't wake up until tomorrow morning."
With his words, Liu Fuying felt relieved.
Without the restraint of chains, Pei Zhouwu could move more freely underwater. He didn't even need Liu Fuying to swim himself. He was just being carried out by him the whole time.
When they reached the spring outside, they both came out of the water at the same time.
Their bodies were soaked, and the wedding dresses clung to their bodies, outlining the beautiful body lines of both of them.
"Where are you taking me?"
After getting ashore, Liu Fuying asked while wringing out excess water from his body.
Pei Zhouwu was still mysterious. He pulled her up and said, "Follow me."
On the road, fireflies occasionally fly by.
Pei Zhouwu took her not to the place leading down the mountain, but deeper into the mountains. The forest became denser and the weeds became more and more numerous. When it became inconvenient to walk, he simply squatted down and carried Liu Fuying on his back.
"Don't move." Pei Zhouwu didn't allow her to struggle.
"You sprained your ankle yesterday. It wasn't serious, but you walked down the mountain for a long time today. There are weeds and rocks everywhere here. If you sprain it again, you will be unable to move for a long time."
Liu Fuying lay on his back and looked at the firefly wooden hairpin on his head which was still wet with water, with a smile.
"Okay, I'll listen to you. I'll listen to my husband."
When she heard the word "husband", Liu Fuying could sense that Pei Zhouwu had an obvious change in mood.
It was exactly as Liu Fuying felt. Pei Zhouwu felt that the name was unfamiliar at first, and then he lowered his eyes to hide his shy sweetness.
He is now a husband too.
From now on, he will have someone to accompany him and will no longer be alone!
"Husband, where are you taking me in such a mysterious way? Are you going to sell me for...Husband, look, there are so many fireflies."
Looking up, there are many fireflies lingering on the uphill ahead, dancing like stars in the night sky.
Pei Zhouwu smiled slightly and carried her up the slope.
"Wow!"
On the other side of the high slope, there were hundreds and thousands of green fireflies, a dream-like scene that made Liu Fuying unable to take his eyes away.
She struggled hurriedly to get off Pei Zhouwu's back.
Just as she was about to run down, Pei Zhouwu grabbed her.
"Be careful, the ground below is slippery and wet. Some places are quagmires and you will sink if you step on them."
"But it's so beautiful. I've never seen so many fireflies."
"You have to be careful then." Pei Zhouwu gently pulled her to his side, soothing her and saying, "Fireflies like to live in places with lush grass and moisture. There is an underground river here, and the river water seeps out from the ground. There is also a river under the reeds below. If you go there, you will step on air and fall into it, or get cut by the reeds. Fireflies are beautiful, but you just need to appreciate them quietly."
Liu Fuying grinned, and the moonlight shining on her smiling face seemed to be shining brightly.
Pei Zhouwu felt that she was more beautiful than the fireflies in the sky.
"How do you know such a place?" Liu Fuying looked ahead, but pulled Pei Zhouwu's sleeve and asked him.
"When I first knew there was an underwater passage, I went out to look nearby and happened to come across this place. A few days ago, I remembered that this place is very suitable for fireflies to inhabit. Today, I saw that it was indeed the case."
He pulled Liu Fuying to sit on the grass nearby and watch the beautiful fireflies with her.
Liu Fuying turned around to look at him, his profile had a clear and noble temperament.
Surrounded by fireflies, the marriage is consummated under the moon.
Such a scene should be one of the most beautiful things in life, isn't it much more romantic and interesting than lying in bed?
"Husband..."
