Su Qingluan wasn't unfamiliar with this room, having passed by it many times before. But she couldn't say she was familiar with it either. This was originally Mu Xingzhi's bedroom, and while they were considered friends, in this era, it was clearly unacceptable for friends of the opposite sex to casually visit a "bedroom," so Su Qingluan had never been inside.
The bed has been replaced with a bright red wedding quilt, the window frames are covered with pairs of wedding characters, there are thick red candles with auspicious dragons and phoenixes on the bedside, and even the tablecloth is bright red.
However, the furnishings of this era did not have any particularly new styles, not to mention that as "Mu Xingzhi", he should not have any particularly new and gorgeous furniture. Su Qingluan took a quick look and lost interest, so she looked away.
After all, she had been hungry for most of the day and her stomach was empty. Su Qingluan didn't want to exercise too much and waste energy, so she took two steps to get rid of the dizziness and the numbness and pain in her legs from being tense for a long time to prevent falling, and then she sat back on the edge of the bed.
Then she felt she had accomplished something hard—and it wasn't even one.
To be precise, it should be the feeling of "a small ball, a small ball".
"What is that?" Su Qingluan muttered softly. She first opened a corner of the top bunk and saw... peanuts? And longans?
By the way, speaking of which, using the four dried fruits of "jujubes, peanuts, longans, and lotus seeds" to spread on the bed is called "pressing the tent", which means "early birth of a son", right? Su Qingluan realized this belatedly.
It's no wonder she couldn't remember. There were too many messy etiquettes today. When she read the literature in the future, she would only find it interesting, but she would not know until she experienced it herself that these seemingly interesting etiquettes were really tiring.
But thinking about the "long-term employment fee" that Mu Xingzhi gave under the name of "bride price", Su Qingluan sighed silently: This is the agreed price, you have to be dedicated, you have to be dedicated, you have to...
She was too hungry to toast!
Back home, Su Qingluan could barely replenish her energy with the sugar and salt water she'd been drinking, but after the bumpy ride, that little bit had long since been consumed. There wasn't any of that kind of fluid for her to drink here. Su Qingluan patted her rumbling stomach and turned her gaze to the peanut and longan she'd just pulled out of the quilt, which had been bothering her.
Both of these are unshelled. Unlike dates and lotus seeds, which require the surface to be cleaned, they can be peeled and eaten directly.
Su Qingluan couldn't help swallowing, and glanced toward the door. She peeled the peanuts from their shells and counted them. There were three peanuts. She listened carefully, but there was no movement.
Although she was the only one who knelt three times and kowtowed nine times for a long time when worshiping heaven and earth just now, Su Qingluan was very dissatisfied that Mu Xingzhi could avoid it by pretending to be in a wheelchair. But at this moment, if Mu Xingzhi's bulky wooden wheelchair wanted to come in, the noise would definitely be heard from far away.
From this point of view, she was very satisfied. After all, for Su Qingluan now, the world is big, but cheating is the biggest.
Considering that the dates and lotus seeds needed to be washed, and the longans had seeds and tasted sticky, Su Qingluan simply turned over the quilt and picked out the peanuts to eat.
As she ate, Su Qingluan sighed. Whoever wanted to get married in the future could do it. She had only put on an act once, and yet she had to suffer so much. Since she traveled through time, except for the first month or so when the conditions were a little difficult, Su Qingluan had never had to put herself in such a difficult position when it came to food.
Su Qingluan looked around at the leftover fruit cores and placed them in a drawer of the dressing table. Surrounded by jewelry, the value of these peanut shells had doubled.
Just as she pushed the open drawer back, Su Qingluan heard a noise outside the door. She quickly turned around to sit on the bed, but found that the whole bed had been opened because she had opened the quilt to look for peanuts. So she hurriedly adjusted the quilt, quickly sat back on the edge of the bed, and covered herself with the veil.
"......!" What a mistake! The moment she sat down, Su Qingluan grimaced: she hadn't grasped the "landing point" well, and she just happened to sit on a round lotus seed, right on the left ischium!
As everyone knows, although the fat layer in the buttocks is relatively thick, the ischium is relatively thin. If a person has a plump figure, they will naturally be safe. However, although Su Qingluan is not a skinny stick, she is also a slender type, so naturally she cannot have this "advantage".
As a result, her left ischium came into "intimate contact" with a plump and large lotus seed, causing Su Qingluan to feel pain.
But she couldn't do anything, not even move left or right, because the moment she sat down, the door of the room was pushed open from the outside.
Mu Xing's house didn't have door frames, after all, such things wouldn't be convenient for a wheelchair to pass through. Su Qingluan could clearly hear the dull "rolling" sound of the wheelchair rolling across the ground.
What followed was a series of light footsteps, and it was obvious that it was coming from more than one or two people.
Su Qingluan naturally knew this, because in addition to Song Bo who was responsible for pushing the wheelchair and the bridesmaid who was in charge of every aspect, there were also some female relatives who helped to carry various things or helped in other directions. Basically, they were provided with a meal and then collected from the village.
In fact, there was originally a segment called "making a fuss in the bridal chamber", but everyone took Mu Xingzhi's physical condition into consideration and cancelled it.
Su Qingluan had heard all kinds of strange rumors about the bridal chamber prank before, so canceling this part was exactly what she wanted, and she was very happy to see it happen.
