Three days passed quickly, and Shen Jiaojiao got up early in the morning to start getting ready.
Today is Chen Baozhu's wedding day. I promised her I would go for drinks with her, so I plan to go early.
While Chu Tianling was still attending court, Shen Jiaojiao, along with her two guards Fu Hang and Wang Dazhuang, as well as Chunhua, Chuncao, and a group of others, set off early.
The banquet was held on Chen Baozhu's estate in the suburbs.
We boarded the carriage and arrived an hour later.
As soon as Shen Jiaojiao stepped off the carriage, she saw Chen Baozhu dressed in a bright red wedding robe, standing at the door to greet the guests.
She got off the carriage and walked over. Chen Baozhu greeted her with great joy: "Jiaojiao, you've come quite early. I'm so glad to see you."
Shen Jiaojiao looked shocked: "Wait, Baozhu, why are you standing at the door? Isn't the bride supposed to be in the room, with her red veil on, waiting for the groom to come and fetch her?"
Chen Baozhu's smile froze for a moment, then she said, "Jiaojiao, today is different."
Seeing that her expression was off, Shen Jiaojiao asked worriedly, "Why is it different? Did Chu Tianyang let you down?"
Chen Baozhu shook her head and said frankly, "Wen Nuan came back yesterday."
Upon hearing this, Shen Jiaojiao's heart skipped a beat.
When Na Wen Nuan went to the Kingdom of Women, she was so pregnant she was about to give birth.
Later, the Kingdom of Women was merged, and she probably came back. This person has a bit too much of a saintly heart. If Baozhu had married into that kingdom, she would have suffered terribly.
That's not right either. Baozhu said before that she would live on the estate from now on, and men would be dispensable.
So, will we get married today or not?
Chen Baozhu looked at Shen Jiaojiao, whose face was sometimes frowning and sometimes relaxing, as if she was thinking about something important.
Thinking back on what he had just said, he guessed that he was worried about her.
She smiled slightly and reached out to grasp Shen Jiaojiao's hand: "Jiaojiao, you don't need to worry about me."
I, Chen Baozhu, am not as fragile as you think. I sent someone to deliver a letter to Chu Tianyang yesterday.
If you still want to get married, then bring your dowry and move in with your husband!
Anyway, I will not go to his palace, nor will I become a concubine in his palace.
Even if he doesn't come today, the banquet will still go ahead. Consider it a birthday celebration for my unborn child. I'm fine with it, so don't worry.
Shen Jiaojiao was relieved to see that she was indeed calm and did not seem to be in any discomfort.
She was worried that if Chen Baozhu stood at the door, others would give her a hard time.
He simply had someone bring a stool and an umbrella, and stayed with her not far away.
Guests arrived in an endless stream, many of whom came because of her father and brothers.
Although everyone saw Chen Baozhu standing at the door greeting guests, they all tactfully refrained from asking any further questions.
After exchanging greetings and presenting gifts, we went inside and took our seats.
Time passed second by second.
Chen Baozhu's expression grew increasingly serious.
Shen Jiaojiao clenched her fists anxiously. Wang Dazhuang, seeing Chen Baozhu's pitiful state, simply said, "Your Majesty, if Miss Chen really has no one to want her..."
Or I could just marry her.
Let me make this clear beforehand: I don't like women, but I don't mind if she has children, since I'll never have children myself.
I don't mind if Miss Chen gives birth to a child; the child can call me "Dad," and I'll give her all my monthly allowance. Hehe, I'm actually a little excited just thinking about it!
Shen Jiaojiao rolled her eyes and didn't say anything. It wasn't appropriate to talk about these things in such a serious setting.
Chen Baozhu also heard Wang Dazhuang's words, as they were not far apart.
This time, she turned directly to look at Wang Dazhuang, sized him up, and then said with disdain, "Thank you! Although I understand you meant well."
But you don't mind me, but I mind you.
You're interested in the sex industry, but I'm not interested in you. You're just hogging the toilet without using it; I refuse!
Shen Jiaojiao couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh again.
After this little incident, the atmosphere became more relaxed.
Chen Baozhu's gaze grew colder as she looked into the distance. Finally, as the auspicious time approached, the person she was waiting for still hadn't appeared.
She pretended to be strong and said to Shen Jiaojiao, "Come on, sisters, let's go in and have dinner."
"Aren't you going to wait?"
"Um!"
Shen Jiaojiao sighed softly.
Just as the two turned around, a loud baby's cry came from afar, getting closer and closer.
Chen Baozhu paused for a second, then continued walking.
Then, the familiar shouts continued from behind: "Wife! Wife! Wait for me!"
It was clearly Chu Tianyang's voice, and Shen Jiaojiao quickly turned around.
Sure enough, Chu Tianyang was dressed in red, holding a... child in his arms...
A group of people followed behind him, and upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Chu Tianling.
Shen Jiaojiao quickly grabbed Chen Baozhu, who was about to enter: "Baozhu, look, they're here!"
Chen Baozhu did not turn around. What she had been looking forward to suddenly seemed boring.
The expectation was gone: "Oh! It has nothing to do with me, the auspicious time has passed, it doesn't matter anymore!"
After saying that, he continued walking forward with long strides.
Shen Jiaojiao stood awkwardly at the door, glancing at Chen Baozhu walking inside and then at Chu Tianyang rushing over from outside.
My heart is breaking from worry.
I'm so frustrated! What a mess this is!
On such a joyous occasion, why make it so tragic?
She simply stood at the door and shouted at Chu Tianyang, "Hurry up! Hurry up! Baozhu has already gone inside!"
Chu Tianyang ran wildly, the child in his arms crying even louder, making his head spin.
When they reached the door, Chu Tianyang tossed the child he was carrying to Shen Jiaojiao, saying, "Hold this for me."
The words were still hanging in the air when the person had already run far away.
Shen Jiaojiao looked completely bewildered, standing at the door holding her child: "Hey... what are you doing! Hey!"
Oh shit.
The person has already run far away and cannot be called back.
The child was still crying when Chu Tianling arrived at the door.
As soon as Shen Jiaojiao saw him, she remembered the mess Chu Tianyang had made, and casually tossed the child to him: "Here! Chu Tianyang's, here you go!"
Regardless of his reaction, she didn't want to take it, so she handed the child to him and turned to run inside.
Chu Tianyang was also completely bewildered. Wasn't this Chu Tianyang's unlucky kid?
When he finished his morning court session and planned to find Shen Jiaojiao, he discovered that she had already left.
Just as I set off in my carriage, I thought of Chu Tianyang and turned to take a look. As it turned out, I happened to run into Chu Tianyang dividing the family property.
When Wen Nuan returned, she brought back her newborn child. More importantly, she had taken a liking to the prince who had returned from the Kingdom of Women.
The men in that Women's Kingdom were all missing limbs, and the princes were no exception.
She had met this pitiful man before when she was in the Kingdom of Women, and now she had returned to the royal palace.
She simply abandoned the child, leaving him with Chu Tianyang before running away.
This Chu Tianyang is truly something else.
Not only did they not stop her, they also packed up their belongings and moved them all over, clearly trying to get close to Chen Baozhu.
When he arrived, they were short of people to move things, so they immediately asked him to help them move the things and then took their children to live with Chen Baozhu.
