Lu Shunxin was so angry that he trembled all over, but he couldn't utter a single word in rebuttal.
Finally, it was Old Madam Zhu, dragging her ailing body out of the house and threatening suicide, that stopped the eldest son and his wife.
They didn't want to stay any longer; the wedding dress was ruined, and they needed to find a way to fix it as soon as possible so as not to delay Weiwei's wedding.
On the other side, Su Yujiao comforted her, "Don't worry, I'll think of a way for you."
"I'm going back."
Su Yujiao wasn't flustered at all. She traveled back to the modern era, took a taxi to a wedding shop, and bought a super luxurious and elaborate brocade Xiuhe dress.
Although it differs from the wide wedding robes of this era, it is exquisite, beautiful, and festive, clearly a wedding garment.
Moreover, it is much prettier than the one that Lu Ziwei damaged. After all, many techniques and dyeing methods used in later generations, as well as the fine glitter, rhinestones, sequins, and seed beads on Xiuhe dresses, were things that the backward ancient times could not achieve.
"Here it is, quickly try it on to see if it fits."
"If it doesn't fit, have the embroiderer alter it."
The moment Lu Ziwei saw Xiuhe's wedding dress, she was immediately captivated. How could there be such a beautiful wedding dress in the world?
"Jiaojiao, is this a fairy's wedding dress?"
Su Yujiao casually made up a lie: "This is what I prepared for myself, but I just haven't had a chance to wear it."
"Ah, why aren't you wearing it on your wedding day?"
"Because at that time it was still the mourning period for the Empress Dowager, everything was kept simple."
In fact, Su Yujiao had hoped that she could wear such a beautiful wedding dress and marry the man she loved.
At that time, she didn't have any special abilities, and with the Empress Dowager in mourning, she couldn't hold a grand celebration.
Most importantly, Lu Ziqian doesn't like her, so no matter how beautiful she dresses, it's all for nothing.
Lu Ziqian happened to hear their conversation when he came in, and at the same time he saw the magnificent wedding dress that was ahead of its time.
This wedding dress clearly shows a lot of thought and effort; she sewed it stitch by stitch with all her love.
She would look stunning in such a beautiful wedding dress.
When you got married, she must have really wanted to wear this outfit when she married me, right?
Lu Ziqian stepped forward and put the wedding dress away: "It's your own wedding dress, keep it safe yourself."
"Wear this when you remarry me!"
"My sixth sister, let's think of another way."
Su Yujiao rolled her eyes wildly. "You're crazy! Who wants to marry you again?"
"Weiwei, hurry up and change, don't be late."
Lu Ziwei really wanted to wear it, after all, she had never seen such gorgeous clothes in her life.
But after Lu Ziqian said that, she felt a little embarrassed.
"Go quickly, don't listen to his nonsense. I will never marry him again in my life. I won't jump into the same fire twice."
Suddenly, the sounds of celebratory firecrackers and suona horns rang out outside, followed by the matchmaker's loud and clear voice: "The groom has arrived to fetch the bride."
"Hurry up, the person has arrived. Do you want to get into the bridal sedan chair in your nightgown?"
"Oh, oh, oh."
Hearing footsteps outside, Lu Ziwei also became anxious.
Su Yujiao followed her inside and helped her get dressed, afraid that she wouldn't know how.
"Miss, you look absolutely stunning in this outfit."
The maids and servants in the room were so envious they cried. They would have died happy if they could wear this on their wedding day.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Lu Ziwei couldn't help but want to cry. She was so lucky to have met such a good sister as Jiaojiao.
"Jiaojiao, are you really willing to let me wear this?"
"Stop talking nonsense and close the lid quickly."
"If you feel bad about it, have Gu Heng give me a piece of gold as a token of your appreciation."
"Quickly, quick, the groom is here."
Su Yujiao covered her head with a red veil, and then the matchmaker helped her out.
She didn't go along, after all, she was a divorced woman and it wasn't appropriate for her to see the newlyweds off.
Lu Ziqian remained standing at the door, still believing that the wedding dress looked best on Jiaojiao.
Su Yujiao glanced at him, ignored him, and left.
Since we're already divorced, belated affection is worth less than grass!
Lu Ziqian watched Su Yujiao's departing figure, feeling an indescribable bitterness in his heart.
During the previous military rations scandal, she had only given him a few lukewarm words.
Ever since Chu Zhongyuan was imprisoned, she has completely ignored him.
Even though he shamelessly lived in the woodshed in the courtyard, he was just living in the woodshed. She didn't even spare him a glance, as if she really treated him as a servant and a brute in the household.
What should he do to win back Jiaojiao's heart?
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and go greet the guests," the two sisters-in-law urged.
The wedding was a great success, and Lu Ziwei's new wedding dress became an overnight sensation in the capital.
Every woman in the wedding banquet who saw her magnificent and beautiful wedding dress was filled with envy.
Some people even regret that they married too early and never had the chance to wear such a beautiful wedding dress.
The unmarried young ladies were secretly planning to get along well with Lu Ziwei so that they could have an identical beautiful wedding dress made for them.
The owners of clothing stores were also looking at the styles of wedding dresses, preparing to make a fortune.
We won't go into what happened next.
On their wedding night, at the prompting of the matchmaker, Gu Heng lifted the veil and saw his beautiful bride, whose face was as fair as a fairy. His heart skipped a beat.
She looked beautiful today, and her clothes were gorgeous, which stirred up some feelings in him that he shouldn't have had.
He felt ashamed, even though he was thinking of someone else, his body was responding to the woman in front of him.
Gu Heng dared not look any longer, shifting his gaze elsewhere and letting out an unnatural dry cough.
"Please invite the bride and groom to drink the nuptial wine."
"Sharing a toast, our hearts are intertwined for life. Hand in hand, we will walk the road to the future, and grow old together in happiness and health."
Amidst the auspicious words of the matchmaker, the two drank the nuptial wine together.
Lu Ziwei's face flushed red. Although this marriage was an accident, she was still nervous and shy.
After the matchmaker and maids left, only the newlyweds remained in the room.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense and awkward, since the two were not familiar with each other before and had only met a few times.
Therefore, the two were very polite to each other and could not get to know each other well at all.
Gu Heng, however, knew that the young lady was shy, so he took the initiative to start a conversation.
"You must be hungry after a long day."
"Have some pastries first, and I'll have the maid cook a bowl of noodles."
Lu Ziwei nodded. She had gotten up before dawn and stayed up until late at night; she was indeed exhausted and hungry.
Gu Heng placed the pastries next to her and then left.
Soon, a maid brought in foot-washing water: "Madam, Master said you've had a long day and wants you to soak your feet."
Lu Ziwei was touched by his thoughtfulness and consideration. She felt that even without love, she could live a respectful life with such a man.
Lu Ziwei took off her elaborate and heavy wedding dress and the golden crown on her head, feeling exhausted after wearing it all day.
After taking off her wedding dress, Lu Ziwei, wearing only a bright red nightgown, sat relaxed on the edge of the bed soaking her feet.
After the maid took the water out, Gu Heng came in with a tray containing two bowls of noodles.
"You haven't eaten either?"
The man nodded: "Yeah, I was just too busy."
He glanced at the woman's pajamas, then quickly looked away. Lu Ziwei also lowered her head in embarrassment.
