Chapter 782 Teaching Personnel
Bai Cha, with a serious expression, reminded her young mistress, "Miss, although you trust Young Master Qi, you must not let your guard down."
When two people get married, at least there's a ceremony. It's always the woman who suffers when it's talked about, but having a pockmarked face isn't a big loss.
Bai Cha knew that she was loyal but not particularly bright, but for some reason, she always felt that everything was happening too fast.
From engagement to marriage, it only took our young lady a little over a month.
The engagement was arranged in the capital, and the wedding took place in the Northwest. However, following the path taken by the pockmarked man, he remained in a passive position.
"What if he's a pervert who just hid it well before? You'll be at a disadvantage, Miss!"
Bai Cha shook her head, immediately perking up. Tonight, she had to stay by the young lady's side at all times to prevent the pockmarked man from taking advantage of her.
"Okay, we'll do whatever Bai Cha says."
The room was filled with the aroma of herbs. Lin Yuesha was exhausted and fell asleep in a short while. When she woke up, she was soaking in a bathtub with a layer of flower petals on the surface of the water.
"Jasmine still exists at this time?"
The scent of jasmine was invigorating; Lin Yuesha took a deep breath and immediately felt refreshed.
The water had been scented with perfume. She stretched her arm out in front of her and touched it; it felt smooth.
"It was picked by Lord Xu from Young Master Luo's greenhouse. It is said that he brought all the flowering jasmine."
The greenhouse of the King of Luo has all kinds of flowers, and jasmine is the most fragrant.
"I've never heard that Young Master Luo is particularly fond of jasmine."
Lin Yuesha picked up a handful of flower petals, brought them to her nose and sniffed them. Although her cousin was still single, he understood women's feelings quite well.
"It's not for display. Young Master Luo likes to drink tea, but there are no good tea shops in the Northwest, so he brews jasmine flowers in water to drink."
Sure enough, Xu Da was ruthless. To make up the number, he plucked all the flower petals and left none for the Prince of Luo.
It is said that when the Prince of Luo learned of this, he choked on a mouthful of phlegm and almost died on the spot.
"Sigh, although I have to thank my cousin, I can't help but feel a little sad."
Lin Yuesha paddled in the water and said wistfully, "It's true what they say, 'When people leave, the tea cools.'"
"Yes, now that Young Master Luo has left, we'll never be able to drink tea again."
Bai Cha perfectly understands the meaning of "when people leave, tea cools," sighing with regret, "Young Master Luo had the temperament of a scholar and the appearance of a handsome man. He was the ideal husband that all the women in the capital wanted to marry, but he could not escape the matter of life and death."
The mistress and servant were downcast for a moment. After Lin Yuesha finished washing up, she was then made to change into a bright red wedding dress by the matchmaker. Two more auspicious old women came to help Lin Yuesha comb her hair.
“Miss Lin, your marriage may have been a bit rushed, but Lord Xu instructed us to make sure it was done to the best of our ability.”
Women with complete blessings are especially hard to find in the Northwest, particularly those with four generations living together and many children and blessings.
The Northwest has been at war for years, and all able-bodied men have long been sent to the battlefield, their fates unknown.
On such a joyous occasion, it was best not to discuss the war too much. The two old women were sensible and, after receiving their reward money, kept saying auspicious words.
Just as Lin Yuesha finished dressing, Madam Xu arrived with Yan Yan.
"Sister Yue Sha, you've arrived."
After entering, Yan Yan first looked Lin Yuesha up and down, then nodded in satisfaction, "So beautiful."
"What bride isn't beautiful? Sigh, when will Gouzi bring a wife home?"
Madam Xu agreed wholeheartedly, sitting beside Lin Yuesha with a loving gaze.
If Qi Heng hadn't taken a liking to Lin Yuesha, she would have shamelessly helped Xu Da snatch her away no matter what.
"Moonlight Sister, thank goodness for the backpack you brought me, otherwise this journey would have been..."
It had been a while since they last met, and Yan Yan had so much to say.
Lin Yuesha was right about Xiaohe. She picked up the skills very quickly and could master them in three to five days. Her sewing skills were very steady and she was very meticulous.
Even Lianqiao knew how to use acupuncture, which surprised Yan Yan greatly.
"I should thank you. If it weren't for you, my cousin..."
Yan Yan lowered her eyes. No matter how badly Bai Youran had done, she was still her cousin. Moreover, the Bai family had now betrayed the country and implicated the Yan family. Her parents had been taken away by the Prince of Luo's men, and the entire Yan family had been thrown into the Heavenly Prison to await punishment.
"Alright, we only have one hour. Time is of the essence, so let's tackle the most important things first."
Madam Xu patted Yan Yan's hand, took out a plain, yellowed booklet from her sleeve, and handed it to Lin Yuesha, saying, "You should take a look at this."
Lin Yuesha took the booklet, the cover of which was exactly the same as the one the pockmarked man had given her, and said, "I've been reading it these past few days."
"How many days have you been looking at it?"
Madam Xu was surprised, and the newlywed bride, blushing, glanced at the booklet as if she wanted to throw it away, and hurriedly asked, "Who gave you this booklet?"
"Brother Qi."
Lin Yuesha noticed that Madam Xu's expression was not quite right. The booklet contained anecdotes about Lord Qi and Madam Qi's interactions, as well as stories about her in-laws. Was she not allowed to read it?
"Qi Heng is a beast!"
Madam Xu immediately cursed. As an elder, she had to find Qi Heng and get to the bottom of things. Why was he so impatient?
"ah?"
The two seemed to be talking about different things, and Lin Yuesha immediately realized what was going on. Her face flushed slightly. "Are you sure you don't have some misunderstanding? What I saw before was..."
"This is an erotic booklet. Your aunt needs to show it to you. Fortunately, Doctor Yan is here. If you don't understand anything, you can ask her."
Before a woman gets married, she must undergo a period of instruction.
Right now, Granny Fang isn't in the Northwest, and Bai Cha is just a young girl, so only Granny Fang, as an elder, can teach her about life.
Mrs. Xu, holding the booklet, was also embarrassed, so she simply pushed it all onto Yan Yan.
For doctors, male and female are merely genders, and are not important.
"Aunt Xu, I'm not married yet."
Yan Yan was both amused and exasperated, and besides, she couldn't be considered Lin Yuesha's elder.
"No need. My marriage to him is just a sham, done to fulfill Young Master Luo's wish."
Lin Yuesha buried her head in her chest, unwilling to lift it. It was all just an act; why did they have to include watching erotic scenes?
"This day will come sooner or later."
Yan Yan received a wink from Madam Xu and suddenly realized that she had also become a member of the scheme. Luo Wang was in charge of pretending to be dead, and they worked together to trick Lin Yuesha.
She didn't want to participate, but she had no choice but to get on the wrong side of it; if she didn't join in, she would be kicked off.
“Sister Yue Sha, Aunt Xu is right.”
Yan Yan opened the booklet and immediately breathed a sigh of relief. The men and women in the booklet were dressed, but she couldn't understand what they were wearing.
The illustrations were rather obscure, while the text was quite straightforward. Lin Yuesha read it with great difficulty, and the thin layer of sweat on her face smudged her makeup.
"Mother, how are the preparations going? The auspicious day and time have arrived. I'm here to carry my cousin on my back to get married."
Xu Da urged them on from the doorway and ordered people to set off firecrackers.
After a series of crackling sounds, large red lanterns lit up in the courtyard.
"Alright, the bride is here!"
Madam Xu helped Lin Yuesha cover her head with a red veil, placed it on Xu Da's back, and then left the courtyard.
