144. Chapter 144 Getting Married



When Xu Bo saw Jiang Zan and the others coming, he invited them to the Mu Mansion.

Jiang Zan asked, "Uncle, is there anyone getting married in the Mu Mansion?"

Xu Bo smiled and said, "There is a girl in our Mu Mansion who is getting married."

Jiang Zan looked at the other soldiers and asked, "Excuse me, where is Lord Mu?"

"Lord Mu is in the backyard looking after the bride and will not be out until later. Please wait here for a moment."

Jiang Zan and the others nodded.

In the room at the backyard of the Mu Mansion, the madam of Yixinyuan was combing Fushan's hair.

"One comb to the end, two combs to the eyebrows, three combs to the wings and two flies together..."

Fushan's beautiful eyes were sparkling with tears. After combing her hair and putting on the phoenix crown, she stood up and saluted the madam and Mu Nanjin, thanking them for their care.

"Thank you so much, girl. Thank you for helping me so much. I don't know how to repay you."

She and Mu Nanjin were just acquaintances, not even familiar with each other, but the other party helped her to get a good citizenship, prepared a dowry for her, and even acted as her parents-in-law to send her off during the wedding. She really had no way to repay him.

She must have done a lot of good things in her previous life, which allowed her to meet so many good people in this life.

Mu Nanjin said: "Living well every day from now on will be the greatest reward for me."

"Yes, I will." Fushan thought for a moment and said, "I heard that the girl has prepared a lot of dowry for me, I..."

Mu Nanjin knew what she wanted to say and interrupted her, "That was the dowry I bought for you with the money you earned from redeeming yourself. You saved that money with your own hard work, so you don't have to thank me."

"Ah? This..." Fushan didn't know what to say: "Shouldn't you keep the money? Why did you buy a dowry for me?"

"I wasn't the one who bought you, and it wasn't my money that was spent, so I won't lose whether the money for your redemption belongs to me or not. It's not easy for you, you didn't choose to be a prostitute in a brothel, and redeeming yourself is your best way out. But this world is too harsh on women, and women will have a hard time if they have even a little stain on them. As a woman myself, I can't bear to see women suffer, so I take good care of you. Buying you a dowry, acting as your family, and sending you off are just a piece of cake for me, so you don't need to be too grateful."

Mu Nanjin thought that doing these things would not require her to withstand nine heavenly thunders, nor would she fail in her tribulation, nor would she encounter various dangers. She was just riding a horse to drink at a wedding banquet to support Fushan. Why wouldn't she help with such a simple matter? Besides, the other party was once hers, so she was happy to help her own people do something that was easy.

But if these things are harmful to her, she will definitely refuse without hesitation. She is not a saint who will rush forward knowing the danger.

Fushan heard her speak so easily, but she was deeply moved.

The other party had no idea that this little help was a huge favor to her and she would never be able to repay it in her lifetime.

Since the other party didn't let her thank him, she would keep it in mind. If Mu Nanjin encountered any problems in the future, she would definitely be the first one to stand up and help her.

Fushan did not say any more words of thanks, but bowed solemnly to Mu Nanjin.

The madam said with red eyes: "We really met a good boss. Fushan, oh, no, I should call you Qianrou. From now on, you are no longer Fushan. If others call your name Fushan, you can't respond to them. If we meet on the street one day, we should pretend that we don't know each other, understand?"

Fushan knew that she was doing this for her own good: "Okay, but if you really encounter difficulties, you must come to me."

"We have girls to support our courtyard, so we don't need you. Just be at ease and be your first-rank lady."

Fushan thought about it and agreed.

Mu Nanjin glanced outside and said, "The five girls outside are the maids I bought for you as a dowry. There are also four guards and a woman outside the courtyard. They are yours from now on."

She had checked and found that the maids and guards who came with the dowry were all honest and clean people, and could be placed to serve Fushan.

The madam glanced outside through the window and quickly looked away.

She could only say that Mu Nanjin was so thoughtful, and he had considered every aspect of Fushan very carefully, even choosing the ugliest maid as the dowry.

Unfortunately, the madam was wrong. The five maids were bought by Yang Bo and Xu Cheng. As men, they understood men's minds, so of course they had to buy the ugliest maids as dowry.

Just then, the sound of firecrackers was heard from the other side of the gate.

"The wedding procession has arrived."

The madam quickly took the red veil and covered Fushan with it: "Qianrou, because of my special status, I can only accompany you here. The rest of the journey depends on you."

When Fushan thought about not being able to recognize each other when they met in the future, she immediately reached out and hugged her: "Mom, thank you for taking care of me all these years."

The madam patted her back with red eyes and said, "Stop talking, you'll miss the time."

The old woman who bought it for Fushan came in and said, "Miss, the bride-picking party is here."

Mu Nanjin took Fushan's hand and said, "Let's go out."

The madam quickly stuffed a round fan into Fushan's hand, and watched them walk to the courtyard before quietly leaving through the back door.

When Jiang Zan and the others saw Mu Nanjin coming out, they immediately surrounded him and said, "Master Mu."

Mu Nanjin asked: "Are you willing to help send the bride off?"

"willing."

Jiang Zan and the others followed the bride out.

Mendu and his men who came to pick up the bride were stunned when they saw so many soldiers coming out of the Mu Mansion.

The gatekeeper came to his senses and hurried forward to salute Mu Nanjin.

"Qian Rou, I'm handing her over to you. You must treat her well in the future."

Mentu assured her: "I will, I will never betray her. If I betray her, you can come to me anytime to settle the score."

Mu Nanjin personally escorted the person to the sedan chair.

Behind him, Jiang Zan and the others jumped on their horses and followed the sedan chair.

The onlookers were surprised and asked, "Whose family is the bride from? Why are there so many soldiers to marry her? The ceremony is like a princess' wedding."

"Yes, the dowry can be lined up from the beginning to the end of the street."

Mendu was really surprised.

He thought his display was grand and splendid enough to show how much he valued Fushan, but he didn't expect Mu Nanjin's was even more exaggerated. Not only was the dowry large, but there were also many people who came to see her off, letting everyone know that the bride should not be bullied.

He breathed a sigh of relief. This was good. No one would dare to look down on Fushan anymore.

Even if someone doubts Fushan's identity, they have to consider the people behind her.

"Lift the sedan—"

The band that welcomed the bride played music, and the whole journey was filled with joy and happiness.

They walked around the streets and across half of the inner city before arriving at the gate of the gatekeeper's house.
