On the day Lu Yun got married, Qi Yuning got up before dawn, looked at the sleeping Lingling, and went outside.
The ceremonial procession for the bride was ready. Lu Yun was dressed in red, with a golden crown on his head, and his face was as beautiful as jade. Qi Yuning came forward and joked, "It's rare to see you wearing wedding clothes instead of a monk's robe."
Lu Yun said, "It wasn't me who wanted to become a monk before. It was Qin Yuli who suggested it to me. She knew I didn't want to marry you, and she said that if I became a monk, I would have a legitimate reason not to marry you."
Lu Baozhu said, "It was Qin Yuli who suggested that Qi Yuning marry Lu Yun so that she could serve me. But she turned around and suggested that Lu Yun cancel the engagement. Now it seems that Qin Yuli clearly wants to humiliate Qi Yuning."
Qi Yuning thought about what happened two years ago. She already had a child now, and Qin Yuli might have been reincarnated long ago, so she didn't care anymore.
Qi Yuning looked at Lu Yun and said, "There's no need to talk about the past. Lu Yun, you should treat Chen Nian well in the future."
Regardless of whether Shen Nian really had a calculating heart, they were all a family from today onwards.
Qi Yuning said to Lu Baozhu, "I have a task for you today."
Lu Baozhu said, "What mission? Just tell me."
Qi Yuning whispered in Lu Baozhu's ear, "I'm afraid Madam Lu will cause trouble. Go keep an eye on her."
Lu Baozhu nodded and said, "Don't worry, I won't let her cause trouble."
The Shen Mansion was bustling early in the morning.
In Chen Nian's room, Ning Wen looked at Chen Nian wrapping her belly with a cloth strip and frowned, saying, "No need to wrap it anymore. The clothes are thick in this winter, and no one can tell even if you don't wrap it..."
Shen Nian looked at Ning Wen and said, "Mom, it's okay."
Ning Wen held Shen Nian's hand and said, "Niannian, you should keep this child. He can help you gain a foothold in the Lu Mansion. Besides, it has been five months..."
Chen Nian said, "No, I can't keep him. Han'er is already pitiful enough. I can't let him be without a biological father at such a young age, and even give away half of his biological mother."
Ning Wen sighed and said, "Alas."
Shen Yuqi said at the door: "The groom is here."
Shen Nian knelt down towards Ning Wen and said, "Foster mother, thank you for taking care of me for so many years. I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble."
Ning Wen touched Shen Nian’s head and said, “This place of your stepmother will always be your home, let’s go.”
Shen Yuqi was young and couldn't carry Shen Nian on his back, so it was Shen Jialin who carried Shen Nian out on her way to marry.
Shen Jialin and Lu Yun are about the same age. Shen Jialin looked at Lu Yun and said, "Chen Nian is the eldest daughter of my Shen family. You must treat her well, otherwise I will not forgive you!"
Lu Yun whispered, "The Huang family didn't treat her well before, and I haven't seen you being unforgiving towards the Huang family!"
"You!" Shen Jialin frowned.
Lu Ze stepped forward and said, "It's a big day, don't miss the auspicious time."
With Lu Baozhu watching over Old Madam Lu, the bride's sedan chair entered the gate of the princess's mansion safely and securely.
Qi Yuning looked at Chen Nian's belly. Although the winter clothes were thick, it was obvious from Chen Nian's movements that her belly was flat, even flatter than before she was pregnant.
There was a constant stream of whispers and discussions among the crowd.
"This bride is so lucky! The first time she married into the Huang family, the governor of Longyou Road, and now she's marrying a young prince from the princess's mansion, and she's even marrying with a child."
"She's lucky! No matter how bad Prince Lu is, it's not her turn as a second-married girl."
The Zhou family was not invited to the guests today, so they were too embarrassed to come and be criticized, but there were still many people talking about the Zhou family.
Qi Yuning turned a deaf ear to her and went to accompany Shen Nian after the bride entered the house.
Qi Yuning looked at Shen Nian's flat belly and said, "Are you wrapping your belly with a cloth strip? There are no outsiders here, so quickly untie the cloth strip."
Shen Nian unbuttoned her clothes and untied the tightly wrapped cloth strips inside.
Qi Yuning saw the double-layered bandages and frowned, "Why is it wrapped so tightly? I have a doctor I know who's very tight-lipped. Can you ask him to come over and check if the baby is okay?"
When Qi Yuning was five months pregnant, she could only let Lu Ze touch her belly gently. She could not imagine her belly being entangled like this.
Shen Nian touched her belly and said, "No need, the baby in my belly is fine, I don't feel uncomfortable at all."
Qi Yuning said to Chen Nian, "I'm afraid Lu Yun will still have to toast outside, so I have to go outside to entertain the guests. I'll leave Lichun to you. Just tell Lichun if you have any questions."
Shen Nian smiled and said, "Thank you, Princess."
Qi Yuning smiled calmly and said, "This is the last time you can call me Princess. From now on, you can call me Sister-in-law."
Shen Nian shouted generously: “Sister-in-law.”
Qi Yuning went outside to accompany Lu Ze to entertain the guests. When Lu Ze saw Qi Yuning, he reached out and wiped the dirt on Qi Yuning's face that had been stained from somewhere. "Thank you for your hard work today."
Qi Yuning said, "It's not that hard. But you, please don't help the little bald donkey block the wine later."
Lu Ze smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, I won't block the wine for him. I have to get up early tomorrow to wait for them to offer tea!"
Qi Yuning said: "That's right."
The wedding banquet was lively and the guests did not leave until the hour of Xu.
After Qi Yuning sent the guests away, she felt exhausted all over. She always liked cleanliness, so she went to take a bath despite the late hour.
Lu Ze wiped Qi Yuning's long hair and said, "I don't know when we can finish it, but fortunately, my mother won't get up until noon, so it's too late to serve tea. Since we can't rest now, why don't we..."
