"Hurry, hurry, it's getting late, we can't delay. Start making the noodles quickly."
An old woman came in, and she held up a thin silk thread in her hands and brought it to Qin Su.
Qin Su looked closely and realized the person was a stranger. She immediately frowned and demanded, "Who are you?"
"This is a palace matron," Cheng An said to Qin Su, who had also gotten up early to come over.
Qin Su didn't have many friends. The only one she could call a friend, Wang Manzhu, was in an even less happy marriage than her, and because of her status, it wasn't appropriate for her to be here.
So Cheng'an came over himself to help Qin Su with her makeup and kept an eye on things from the side. The Qin couple were also busy today and didn't have time to stay with Qin Su.
Hearing Cheng An's words, Qin Su lowered her guard and said, "Thank you for your trouble, Granny."
"It's alright, it's alright." The nanny quickly went to open Qin Su's face.
It really hurts, you know what?
She had experienced something similar a few months ago, but it was actually a very distant memory for Qin Su, and she couldn't remember it.
Cheng An chimed in from the side, "Yu Shuo has invited Cen Di Shi's wife to comb your hair, so you'd better be respectful then."
I had heard of this Imperial Tutor Cen, Qin Su. He was a famous handsome man in the capital back then, but he only had one wife in his life, who was his first wife.
Because of their happy and loving relationship, many high-ranking officials would ask Cen Dishi's wife to comb their daughters' hair when they got married, symbolizing harmony and happiness.
At first, Madam Cen was happy to do this, but for some reason, she suddenly stopped doing it later.
It is indeed rare to be able to invite Madam Cen at this time.
Prince Chen's Mansion.
Yu Shuo also got up early. He usually doesn't like to put on face masks, but today he did. He looked at his delicate and somewhat refined face in the mirror and felt quite uncomfortable.
"Can I not wear makeup?" he asked the old woman next to him.
The old woman immediately shook her head, "Makeup is necessary for such an important occasion as marriage, as a sign of respect."
Men in the previous dynasty loved to apply face masks, especially scions of aristocratic families. However, this practice gradually declined in Da'an. Face masks and makeup were only considered for important occasions.
"Chongyang." Yu Shuo seemed to have thought of something, and he called Chongyang over.
"How did things go with what I asked you to do?"
Chongyang immediately replied, "Your Highness, rest assured, I guarantee Xue Huai'an won't be able to leave the Duke of Cheng's residence today!"
Even without His Highness saying so, he would never allow Xue Huai'an to ruin His Highness's marriage, even though Xue Huai'an would never dare to do so.
Ultimately, Yu Shuo still lacked confidence and was wary of Xue Huai'an.
He had possessed Qin Su's affections for so many years, while he himself only had a tiny bit of time.
As the morning star gradually rose above the horizon, the wedding proceeded smoothly.
The Marquis of Loyalty and Righteousness's Residence.
After Madam Cen offered her blessings, Qin Su had completed her basic grooming. A long red carpet stretched from outside the mansion to Qin Su's boudoir, ensuring she wouldn't step on even a tiny patch of ground beside her.
This is a custom of Da'an, and it was left over from the previous dynasty.
The newlyweds stepping on the red carpet symbolizes a prosperous and happy marriage, while stepping on the ground is considered an unlucky omen.
Qin Su was helped out of her room by Cheng An and Lian Tao. She discovered that the entire Marquis of Zhongyi's mansion was covered with a red carpet. This showed that Yu Shuo did not restrict her whereabouts.
"Young lady, the wedding procession is here."
The servants, dressed festively, came to report with beaming smiles.
Upon arriving at the front hall, Qin Su bid farewell to her parents. However, this time she was smiling, because she knew that marrying Yu Shuo wouldn't be much different from her current situation.
She will no longer restrain herself.
"Don't worry, Mom and Dad, I'll come back to stay more often in the future."
Qin's father couldn't help but tear up, but he also felt very gratified.
Fortunately, Yu Shuo was also the son-in-law he had chosen.
Qin's mother spat a few times and said, "Don't say such things, it's bad luck."
She helped her daughter up and whispered in her ear, "You can talk about it privately. My dear girl's room is always open; she can come back anytime."
Qin Su nodded, "Okay! Parents can stay at the Prince's Mansion for a while from now on."
The veil in front of her swayed slightly with her movements, revealing her striking and flamboyant appearance.
"I'll carry my sister on my back to get married," Qin Zhi said to Qin Su as he came out.
Although he was already ten years old, he was not very tall, so carrying Qin Su on his back was still a bit of a struggle.
"You! Wait a little longer." Qin Su looked at him as if she were seeing Qin Zhi from her past life, who had grown into a refined gentleman, but he was still too young now.
Uncle Hu rushed in from outside and said, "The son-in-law is here."
Yu Shuo, dressed in a red groom's suit, looked even more handsome and dashing. His usual black robes always carried a certain majesty, making people hesitant to look him in the eye. But now, in his red groom's attire, that sharp majesty was softened, making him seem like a little deity descended to earth.
"I'll carry it." Yu Shuo walked quickly to Qin Su, staring at her intently at first, before looking away as if he felt it was inappropriate.
Qin Zhi grabbed Yu Shuo's arm, "Brother-in-law, this is my business, don't try to take it from me."
Qin Zhi also wanted to send his sister off to her wedding, but unfortunately he was simply not tall enough.
"Wait until you grow up." Yu Shuo ruffled his hair, showing great indulgence.
"My sister should only be getting married this once," Qin Zhi pouted, somewhat dissatisfied. But he quickly remembered that today was his sister's big day, and he couldn't show that he was unhappy.
"Then you can come along, just like you're seeing your sister off on her wedding." Qin Su pinched his little cheek.
"Okay!" Qin Zhi readily agreed.
Cheng An put the red veil on Qin Su and helped her up Yu Shuo's back.
Her soft, delicate body lay on his back, and Yu Shuo's heart was finally filled; he was no longer lonely.
He carried Qin Su on his back, taking each step with great composure.
He could finally carry her home.
Just like when they were little, he carried her on his back and took her back to White Tiger Village. This time, however, it was home, back to their little home.
The Qin couple also went out, as they were reluctant to just watch Qin Su's back.
Upon arriving at the entrance of the Marquis's residence, Qin Zhi patted Yu Shuo's arm, looked up, and said, "Put my sister down first."
"No. That's against the rules." Yu Shuo rejected his words, directly helped Qin Su into the sedan chair, then walked up to his brother-in-law and asked very seriously, "What does your brother-in-law want to say?"
Seeing that he still respected him to some extent, Qin Zhi didn't hold it against him. With a stern face, he said, "Today I entrust my sister to you. If my sister returns in the future with injuries, tears on her face, and her heart filled with unresolved grievances, I will definitely demand an explanation from you."
"Whether you are a prince or a commoner, you are treated equally."
Do you understand?
Many people came to watch, but no one expected that a mere child would dare to say such things to the current Prince Chen.
Like father, like son.
Not a single coward among the people of the Marquis of Loyalty and Righteousness's household, from top to bottom.
Yu Shuo half-squatted down to look him in the eye and said very seriously, "Alright! I promise you. I will not let your sister down in the future. If I do, you can do whatever you want with me, no matter what your status is."
