"No, I don't have any relatives in this world."
She was just stating the facts, without any ripples in her heart. The original owner's parents had indeed passed away.
Chi Yu hugged her distressedly: "It doesn't matter, you have me, I will be your relative from now on."
Because he had been helping her process herbs for a long time, his body was also stained with a faint herbal fragrance, which made people feel particularly safe.
His arms were hot, and the boy's body temperature was probably always that scorching.
She put her face on Chi Yu's chest and hummed softly.
…………
There is no rule in Xuanli Kingdom that unmarried couples cannot meet each other, so Chi Yu and Tang Wan decorated the bridal chamber and the main hall together.
The night before the wedding, Tang Wan couldn't sleep, so she got up and tried on her wedding dress again.
The wedding dress is beautifully made, the fabric feels very smooth and light, the embroiderer's skills are also very good, the stitches are fine and the workmanship is excellent.
It is embroidered with large pieces of peonies and auspicious patterns, and is also dotted with some gems, making the whole dress look glittering and colorful. It is obvious that a lot of effort was put into its production.
When she saw it for the first time, she knew that this dress would definitely not be cheap. Not to mention the quality of the fabric, the workmanship alone would definitely not be cheap.
She was the one who knew best whether Chi Yu had money or not. He gave her all the money he earned from selling herbs. Under her repeated questioning, Chi Yu admitted that he sold the jade he had carried with him since he was a child, and that the jade was very valuable.
It was worth a hundred gold coins. He saw that Tang Wan was about to get angry, so he started to act pitiful and said something like, "No matter how good the jade is, it is still a dead thing. This is the only wedding in your life. I hope you are happy. Nothing else matters."
Tang Wan was so annoyed by him that she asked him, "What about your own clothes?"
"I'm sure I'm not too bad, otherwise how can I be worthy of you."
Tang Wan let him go.
She opened another box, which contained the jewelry Chi Yu had given her. She heard that it was made by a master craftsman. She went to ask the master, and the master said that he had no choice but to make it because he was pestered.
"That young man came every day. I saw he was sincere, so I did it for him."
It was a set of gold jewelry, but it was not tacky. On the contrary, because of the craftsmanship, it looked luxurious and exquisite. She liked it very much.
She closed the lid and said, "Go to bed, or you won't be able to get up tomorrow."
Chi Yu was even more excited than her. He bought a bronze mirror and looked at himself left and right, but he was still not satisfied.
After several months of exercise, his body has become fuller, but his face still looks like a pretty boy. I don't know if she likes it.
He practiced smiling in front of the bronze mirror. The young man in the mirror had sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, a high nose bridge, and full lips. When he smiled, two pointed fangs were exposed, and the soft flesh on his cheeks bulged out, making him look as frivolous as a peach blossom following the flowing water.
In fact, he himself did not realize that he had matured a lot unknowingly, not only in appearance, but more in responsibility.
He has never been cherished well, but he knows how to cherish others, and he gives to his partner without hesitation.
Chi Yu thought about it all night and fell asleep just as dawn was breaking. He woke up less than an hour later.
When Situ Ye heard that his prince was going to get married, he rushed back overnight. When he entered the house, dew was still hanging on his body.
Chi Yu put on his wedding dress excitedly, but he just couldn't comb his hair properly. He usually tied his hair into a ponytail, so when he was tying his hair, he was in a hurry and couldn't do it properly.
It was Situ Ye who appeared in time to help him solve this problem.
"You can do this?" Chi Yu looked at him suspiciously. Situ Ye gave him a fake smile: "At least you know better than His Highness."
Chi Yu wanted to get angry, but now, he couldn't find anyone else, so he said with a fake smile: "Haha, then thank you for your help."
Situ Ye felt a chill on his back and quickly combed his hair.
Chi Yu looked at himself in the mirror with his hair combed meticulously, and nodded with satisfaction. Well, this is what a mature man should be like.
Tang Wan was also pulled up by the people invited by Situ Ye. Those people took bottles and jars and smeared them on her face.
Tang Wan originally wanted to do it herself, but now that someone is helping her, that’s the best thing.
After all, if you can put on makeup but not style your hair, wouldn’t all those beautiful hair accessories be wasted?!
So she let the women smear the paint on her face without any resistance.
Because she has no elders at home and no good friends in this world, she keeps everything simple.
She and Chi Yu got married, and Situ Ye was the witness.
She had a veil on her head, so she needed someone to support her when she walked. She staggered up several steps before she reached Chi Yu's side.
She held a piece of red silk in her hand and heard Situ Ye shout, "Bow to Heaven and Earth."
She bent down.
"Bow to your parents twice."
Chi Yu caught her veil in time as it was about to slip off.
"Husband and wife bow to each other."
Their foreheads touched each other, and from then on, they became a real couple.
She stayed in the bridal chamber, while Chi Yu was left outside by Situ Ye to drink. Chi Yu was afraid that she was hungry, so he asked someone to bring her a lot of food.
There was a dumpling among them that looked tempting. She picked it up and ate a piece. She couldn't help but frowned: "Raw?"
"Yes, ma'am, I hope you will have a baby soon."
Tang Wan reacted and a smile appeared on her face.
…………
"Your Highness, do you really want to stay in this small mountain village for the rest of your life?" Situ Ye picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp with a serious expression.
Chi Yu looked at the door with soft eyes: "Well, she is my wife, I will never abandon her."
"But Your Highness, you can definitely take Miss Tang back."
Chi Yu shook his head: "No, the royal family is a complicated place. She is a free girl and I don't want to restrict her. Since she is willing to be my wife, I must put her first in everything."
Situ Ye originally wanted to persuade him, but seeing his infatuated look, he was so angry that he couldn't speak. He thought for a long time but couldn't think of any adjectives suitable for his own prince.
If he were a modern person, he would be able to say with all his heart: "What a love-brained person."
But he is not, so he can only drink glass after glass of wine. He really can't understand why the prince who once had great ambitions is now addicted to the pleasures of life and cannot extricate himself.
Women are so scary, he must save His Highness from danger.
In order to vent his anger, he poured Chi Yu glass of wine after glass. Chi Yu was not drunk, but he himself was quite drunk and hugged Fang Zhuzi to complain.
Chi Yu couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he asked the bridesmaids who were dressing Tang Wan to take him down the mountain.
He still couldn't accept other women, so he kept his distance from them and even gave them tips. Those women thought he was trying to avoid suspicion, so they didn't take it to heart. Instead, they happily dragged Situ Ye away.
