When Prince Chai heard about the disturbance at the family reunion banquet, he was so angry that he nearly had a brain hemorrhage. He had just arrived when he saw the Wang family shouting and clamoring in Prince Chai's mansion. His blood instantly boiled over. He pointed at the mess in the yard and said, "You've caused such a scene here, and now you want to report it to the police and let everyone know?"
No one dared to speak, and hung their heads like quails.
Prince Chai pointed at Madam Wang, who was bossing around in his house, and said, "Your wife, Wang Er, has behaved recklessly and drawn public wrath, yet you actually want to blame my future daughter-in-law. How can this be justified?"
Seeing Prince Chai angry, Madam Wang felt uneasy. She fluttered to her knees and said, "Prince Chai, please forgive me. Yes, I just saw my second brother injured, so I was a little anxious. I didn't mean to offend Second Master Yin. It's my fault. Please calm down, Your Highness."
Prince Chai snorted coldly and turned to Lord Wang beside him, "Brother Wang, your wife is truly virtuous."
Lord Wang immediately bowed and said, "Your Highness, please calm down. I was ignorant and angered you. I will compensate for all the losses suffered by the palace today. Please do not hold me accountable for my mistakes."
"If today wasn't the day for my son's family reunion party, I would never have spared you!" Prince Chai had been exhausted all day and was furious again. He rubbed his brows and said impatiently, "Get out of here!"
"yes."
Everyone walked out with their heads down, no one dared to delay.
Just when the eldest lady, Master Yun, wanted to take advantage of the chaos to leave, Prince Chai suddenly said, "The Yun family will stay."
The lady glanced at the calm Su Man, fearing that she had colluded with Azhi and made things difficult for them.
But King Chai kept them to discuss marriage.
Master Yun naturally had no objection. After everything was settled, Prince Chai said, "Yun Man has done Ah Zhi a favor, which means she has done a favor to my Prince Chai Mansion. You should make good preparations, and naturally you will be of great benefit."
"Yes." Master Yun nodded and bowed.
Azhi escorted them out. After Master Yun and the eldest lady got into the car, he squeezed Su Man's hand with his wide sleeve and whispered, "Sister, don't worry, I will protect you."
Suman remained silent.
...
On the way back, Su Man clearly felt that the atmosphere in the carriage was a little subtle.
When she came, the eldest lady and Master Yun were both noble and cold. Whenever they looked at her, they either squinted or rolled their eyes.
And now these two people actually started to look at her expression.
Master Yun even smiled back at Su Man when her gaze inadvertently drifted to him.
That expression, uglier than crying, almost made Su Man laugh. She couldn't help but sigh that life is tiring for those who sit on the fence.
next day
Someone came from Prince Chai's mansion to propose marriage, and good things flowed into Su Man's yard like water.
Xiaochun's hands were sore from keeping track of the gift accounts. She said excitedly, "Miss, I've never even seen these wonderful things. If the lady saw them, she would definitely be furious."
Without even looking up, Su Man looked at the medical book in her hand and said, "When the time comes, add it all to the dowry and return it."
Seeing that Su Man had no joy on her face, Xiaochun asked tentatively, "Miss, don't you want to marry Azhi?"
Su Man paused while turning the pages of the book.
Compared with Wang Er and Yin Hong, Azhi is indeed a better choice, but also a more troublesome choice. It is a blessing in disguise, and disaster cannot be avoided, so we can only let nature take its course.
-
The auspicious day was chosen as the sixth day of the next month.
It was a beautiful, sunny day. Although the autumn sun was strong, it was not as fierce as in summer. Instead, it was warm and refreshing.
The green wedding dress, the red hair crown, and the heavy longevity lock were all hung on Su Man.
The person in the mirror has a rosy face and rosy cheeks, which makes people forget the world and look as beautiful as a painting.
There had been a lot of noise outside since morning. Xiaochun, who had gone out to get some information, came back and said with a smile, "It's lively outside. Our third and fourth brothers have stopped our son-in-law from coming in and are handing out red envelopes."
The one combing Su Man's hair was an old lady who had all the five blessings. She smiled and said, "Your face shows that you are blessed. You will definitely have a happy marriage in the future."
Su Man smiled faintly, "Thank you for your kind words, Xiaochun, give me a red envelope."
"Thank you, Miss. Oh no, thank you, Madam."
After everything was packed up, Su Man covered her face with a fan and went out to bid farewell to her parents.
The lady in the hall had a stern face all the time, but Master Yun said a few more words, but they were all instructions about harmony between husband and wife.
Everything that followed was chaotic. Su Man felt like a tool, being pushed around, worshipping heaven and earth, being offered tea, and finally being crowded into the bridal chamber.
When they all went out for the wedding banquet, Suman put down her fan and looked around.
The room was ablaze with red. This was the courtyard that King Chai had specially built for Azhi. The furnishings inside the room were all priceless.
There are two flames dancing on the dragon and phoenix candles on the table, which looks very festive.
Xiaochun leaned over to take a look and said with a smile, "Miss, these candles are burning beautifully. People say that if the dragon and phoenix candles can burn all night, they can ensure a couple's love for each other for a hundred years, forever..."
As he was speaking, a strange gust of wind suddenly came and extinguished the phoenix candle.
Xiaochun was startled. She turned around in panic and said, "Girl, I was just talking nonsense. I'll light it right away."
"No."
Su Man said coldly, "A hundred years of love is not determined by God's will, but by human effort."
It was already late at night when the guests outside had left.
When Azhi came in, Su Man was the only one in the room. She did not cover her face with a fan, nor did she sit on the wedding bed. Instead, she sat on a chair and read a book.
The tassels on the crown swayed, making her face even more beautiful.
Ah Zhi was a little overwhelmed. He walked closer with light steps and asked cautiously, "Sister, are you angry because I'm late?"
