Zhou Jingan lowered his eyes and smiled.
It seems that God had already made arrangements, and his feelings towards Jiang Ling had long changed.
He turned around and took a look. The ten-mile-long street was filled with a long wedding procession and people from all over. The falling snow on the street sparkled with crystal light, reflecting on everyone's smiling face.
The sky is filled with red, and joy is everywhere.
He lowered his eyes slightly and his gaze fell on the wedding sedan behind him.
The smile was gentle for a moment, and there was only joy and satisfaction in his eyes.
Fortunately, nothing was missed.
Fortunately, he didn't miss her.
He didn't have any special feelings about the four great joys in life mentioned in the poem, but now he felt that passing the imperial examination was far less joyful and satisfying than marrying Jiang Ling.
He expected to pass the imperial examination, but marrying Jiang Ling was an unexpected surprise in his life.
Zhou Jing'an withdrew his gaze and looked at the long road ahead, his heart filled with joy.
-
Jiang Ling rode in a sedan chair all the way. At the beginning, she was very excited, but when she heard the noisy noise outside, she felt nervous and happy.
In the end, she was so tired of sitting that she even leaned back slightly against the wall of the car.
This outfit was quite heavy, and she felt like she had a big, solid rock on her head.
"Host, are you happy?" Foxy poked his head out to look at her from under the red veil.
It came back from playing outside, its fox eyes full of excitement and curiosity.
It was the first time it saw an ancient human wedding.
So lively! So grand! So exciting!
Jiang Ling smiled and patted its head, "Happy."
Foxy hugged her hand and shook it, saying excitedly, "I'm happy too."
-
A piece of red brocade, one end in Jiang Ling's hand and the other end in Zhou Jing'an's hand.
The two men walked into the Zhou Mansion, and behind them were the sound of celebratory firecrackers and cheers.
Zhou Jing'an kept an eye on Jiang Ling and deliberately slowed down his pace.
"Bow to Heaven and Earth!"
"Bow to your parents twice!"
"Husband and wife bow to each other!"
The harmony was so loud and compelling that Jiang Ling's heart began to beat rapidly again, and she held the red brocade tightly in her hands.
As she bent down, she raised her eyes slightly and saw the hems of their clothes and shoes, which were paired.
Zhou Jing'an had a smile on his lips. When he bent down, he couldn't help but raise his head. Seeing Jiang Ling facing the top of his head, the tenderness in her eyes suddenly poured out, as if it was about to flow out along the brocade.
Zhou Huaixin and Xia Zhixian both had joy on their faces. Seeing this scene, they couldn't help but look at each other and shook their heads jokingly. If the guests were not there, they would really want to tease their silly son who had been like a wooden lump before.
Everyone present was smiling and looking at the newlywed couple in the middle, their eyes filled with sincere joy and blessings.
The person singing along smiled with his eyes curved, and shouted loudly: "Send her to the bridal chamber!"
Zhou Jing'an and Jiang Ling's faces turned red after hearing this shout.
Only after experiencing it personally did I realize how embarrassing it was.
Jiang Ling was led through many twists and turns into the Zhenxia Pavilion. Her red veil had not yet been lifted, and she had no idea what the courtyard looked like. She was directly led to sit on the bed.
She had originally thought it would be like in the TV series, with the bed covered with longans, peanuts and other things. She was prepared for her butt to be hurt, but in the end, nothing happened and the bed was soft.
Jiang Ling thought, Oh, that's right, this place is fictional, and isn't that kind of custom said to be folk? The Zhou family is not ordinary people.
She smiled, relaxed, and subconsciously supported the bed with her hands.
"Ouch."
She turned her head and saw through the gap in the veil that under her hand was a piece of longan, peanuts, red dates and copper coins.
Jiang Ling couldn't help laughing again. It was really hard to guard against.
The maids in the room also covered their mouths and laughed. Zhou Jing'an's ears felt hot. He knelt in front of her, held her hand, and kneaded it gently.
"Does it hurt?"
Jiang Ling could only see his hands wrapped around hers. She smiled softly when she heard his words and shook her head, "It doesn't hurt."
At this moment, someone urged Zhou Jing'an to go out and receive the guests. Zhou Jing'an responded and turned back to Jiang Ling and said, "I have someone prepare some food. Please enjoy some first."
Jiang Ling kept smiling and replied, "Okay."
"If you want to eat or drink something, just tell them. There's no need to observe those empty formalities."
Jiang Ling couldn't help but wonder who was the one who kept talking about rules and etiquette every day before.
She laughed and nodded: "Okay."
Zhou Jing'an wrapped her little hand and listened to her responding to him. Suddenly, he felt reluctant to leave.
But someone urged him again. Zhou Jing'an pursed his lips, helpless. Before leaving, he gently squeezed her hand and whispered, "Wait for me."
Jiang Ling's face flushed and she nodded.
-
The marriage of the two was known to the whole country. Zhou Jing'an was afraid that they would take advantage of the chaos to cause trouble, so he secretly sent a lot of people to keep an eye on them, and most of them were arranged to protect Jiang Ling.
But there was no suspicious movement throughout the day.
Zhou Jing'an told people not to relax and turned around to continue toasting.
Those who wanted to make friends with the Zhou family came forward to toast and congratulate him. Zhou Jing'an accepted all the toasts and drank them all with a smile.
He has a good alcohol tolerance, and at this time he is in high spirits because of the good news, and he feels that drinking alcohol is like drinking water.
Zhou Jing'an drank a glass and turned to go to the next table.
As soon as I looked up, I saw Wanran.
He had specially requested the emperor to come. After all, he only had one friend, Jiang Ling, so he should come.
I also really want to see her get married.
However, Feng Yu agreed, but he asked someone to give him another identity to cover up his identity. He now came as Jiang Ling's distant cousin.
He was wearing a bamboo green long coat today with a maroon edging on the lapels, which was in keeping with the happy occasion of the day.
He watched Zhou Jing'an carry Jiang Ling out of the palace, get on the wedding sedan, walk through the ten-mile-long street, accept the blessings of the people in the city along the way, worship heaven and earth, and enter the bridal chamber.
Wanran's eyes were always on her, watching her walk all the way.
He was genuinely happy for her.
He hopes she will be happy all her life.
Wan Ran picked up a glass of wine, looked at him, and said sincerely: "May you and Jiang Ling live happily together for a hundred years and grow old together."
Zhou Jingan smiled and nodded, "Okay, thank you for your blessing."
The two men stood facing each other, drank the wine, and smiled at each other.
Wanran saw that he was a young man full of vigor and vitality. Only then could she truly see that he was still a handsome and unrestrained young man, rather than a mature and calm minister.
He suddenly smiled, as if Zhou Jing'an would become so pure every time he met Jiang Ling.
Fortunately, after going through so many things, he understood that Zhou Jing'an really cared about Jiang Ling, and he could rest assured.
But he still said: "Treat her well, or I won't let you go."
This was said when the two first met.
Saying it again today, it carries some sincere wishes.
Zhou Jing'an smiled, nodded solemnly, and promised as he had last time, "I will do it. If you're worried, just keep an eye on me."
