The rings Tang Baozhu chose all had gemstones on them. Although it was difficult to find good gemstones in a small place, they were enough to make do.
When Tang Baozhu was about to pay, Li Jun stopped her, saying, "Baozhu, let me buy these rings. You paid for the jade hairpin earlier, so it's my turn this time."
Tang Baozhu thought that in modern times, the ring was indeed bought by the man, so she nodded in agreement.
After buying the ring, they felt there was nothing else they needed to buy, so the two left the jewelry shop. As for Qingliu, she stayed by the carriage. They had just bought so many things at the embroidery shop, including the bride's wedding dress and the groom's attire. It wouldn't be safe if no one was guarding them. All the items were quite valuable, and it would be a pity if someone else took them.
I went to the general store and bought a lot of useful things. At noon, I just ate a bowl of noodles at a street stall because I was in a bit of a rush.
Li Jun wanted to take Tang Baozhu to a nice restaurant, but Tang Baozhu didn't want to go. She thought it would be better to finish shopping and go home sooner, as it was too uncomfortable to be outside in this heat.
Seeing that Baozhu was indeed unwilling, Li Jun could only wait until next time to take her to a restaurant for a nice meal.
We stayed in the county town until about three or four in the afternoon before we finally bought everything. The carriage was packed with people, so crowded that it was hard to find anyone sitting inside.
Fortunately, we didn't need to buy those ingredients, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to bring them home. All the ingredients were bought near the village. If we had them in our own village, we didn't need to buy them; otherwise, we had to buy them.
Time passed slowly, and soon the wedding day arrived. Almost the entire village was present, and the village's elder clan head was invited to be the witness.
Since both sets of parents had passed away, they could only ask the more respected elders in the village for help.
On her wedding day, Tang Baozhu could say that she had never dressed up so beautifully before. A woman in a wedding dress is indeed most beautiful on the day of her life.
Tang Baozhu saw her reflection in the mirror. Even though she wasn't as beautiful as she was in her previous life as an imperial concubine, she felt happier than she was then.
For some reason, in addition to the gold hairpin that Li Jun bought for her, she also wore the Buddhist artifact jewelry that Brother Xu had given her. When she put it on, she was stunned for a moment.
I was originally thinking of taking it off, but then I couldn't bear to part with it, and my mood instantly became a little down.
Tang Baozhu felt she was being a bit dramatic. She was the one who had forgotten about Brother Xu's feelings, so what right did she have to feel down?
Suddenly, I felt like the emotions I had forgotten had erupted all at once. I quickly took off my jewelry and put it away in my spatial storage. As long as I didn't see it, I wouldn't think about it anymore.
Although it felt a bit like self-deception, Tang Baozhu decided that after returning to the system space, she would definitely ask the system deer to help her locate Brother Xu's world. Even if it was a bit difficult, she would give it a try.
In order not to delay future missions, I should end my lifelong relationship with Brother Xu first. Then I will be more at ease and it will be easier to do future missions.
After thinking it through, I quickly put aside any inappropriate thoughts and focused on getting ready. Only when I was satisfied with myself and made sure that I looked like the most beautiful bride in the mirror did I stop getting ready.
The two personal maids were dressed quite festively today. Fortunately, many aunties from the village came to help, otherwise I was worried that the two maids wouldn't be able to leave.
Since it was a wedding between two people from the same village, the banquet was held at Li Jun's house. Only a few aunts came to help. When Li Jun arrived with the bridal sedan chair to pick them up, they could simply lock the door afterward.
Although it wasn't Tang Baozhu's first time riding in a sedan chair, it was her first time riding in a bridal sedan chair. Even though it was swaying and uncomfortable, she still felt sweet inside.
Chunxue had already locked the door to the house, and now she was on either side of the bridal sedan chair, with Qingliu following along as well.
Tang Baozhu didn't bring much with her. Li Jun's house was a bit dilapidated and located halfway up a mountain. There were too many wild animals in the deep mountains, so she felt unsafe.
So the two of them had discussed it in advance and decided that when they returned to their parents' home on the third day after the wedding, they would stay at Tang Baozhu's house. After all, Tang Baozhu's house was much better than Li Jun's house, with more space and more rooms.
The bridal sedan chair, accompanied by music and fanfare, arrived at Li Jun's house halfway up the mountain. Fortunately, a large open space had already been built in front of Li Jun's house, large enough to hold dozens of tables. Several new stoves had also been set up next to the house in preparation for a banquet.
When the bridal sedan chair arrived at the house halfway up the mountain, Tang Baozhu could feel Li Jun kicking the sedan chair door and then carrying her into the house. Inside the house, there was a large sieve on the ground, because the bride was not allowed to get down on the ground, so she stood on the sieve.
When the auspicious time arrived, the wedding ceremony began. Although Tang Baozhu and Li Jun didn't know much about it, there were elders from the village present, and someone would guide them on what to do, so they didn't have to worry about making any mistakes.
The first bow is to pay respects to Heaven and Earth outside. After that, you pay respects to the elders, since neither family has any elders left. Therefore, you can only pay respects to the memorial tablets of Old Man Tang, Old Man Li, and Old Man Tang's wife.
Finally, when the couple bowed to each other, neither of them had any experience and they bumped into each other's heads. When they bowed a second time, they quickly took half a step back, which showed that they were in good sync and didn't have to worry about bumping into each other's heads again.
After bowing three times, Li Jun carried her directly into the bridal chamber. Overall, it was a very happy experience.
Many people still came to make a ruckus in the bridal chamber. After the veil was lifted, the people around her cheered and said that the bride was very beautiful.
Tang Baozhu was no longer shy about receiving compliments, but she still held her breath and made herself blush, otherwise people would say she was too thick-skinned and didn't feel embarrassed at all.
Seeing so many people around him cheering for him to drink the nuptial wine, Li Jun had no choice but to comply. He had originally planned to drink it secretly when it was just the two of them, but now he had no choice but to drink it in front of everyone.
"Baozi, don't be afraid. This is a fruit wine with a low alcohol content that I specially chose. You don't have to worry about getting drunk and feeling unwell."
Tang Baozhu didn't say anything, she just nodded. Could it be that I can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk?
After drinking the nuptial wine, Li Jun quickly called the people next to him to go outside for drinks and a feast. He was unhappy with so many people watching his sister Baozhu.
