On March 22, the Ling family got up early in the morning and started working.
Prepare the banquet, open the door to welcome guests. Everything is in order.
But no one disturbed Chi Xingyue, and both Chi Xingyue and Ling Jiheng slept well in the house.
When they woke up, it was already daybreak. They quickly washed and changed into new clothes.
Chi Xingyue was afraid that the crowds in the front hall would hurt her stomach, so she didn't go out.
Ling Jiheng went out to meet guests.
However, he was not the protagonist, so he just helped to entertain acquaintances such as Lord Yu and Chen Lizheng.
But even this was enough to exhaust him. He seriously doubted how he had managed to get married in the first place.
The wedding is held in the evening, and the daytime is mainly for entertaining guests.
When the auspicious time arrived, Ling Jihao went to meet his bride. He walked around the main street of the city before bringing his beautiful bride back to his house.
Ling Jihao sat on the tall horse with a silly smile on his face. He only got off after being reminded by the servant.
At the matchmaker's auspicious words, he gently kicked open the sedan door: "My lady, I'm here!"
As he said this, he took Tong Sinian's hand and walked on the red carpet with a proud look on his face.
Firecrackers blasted at the door and the smell of sulfur rose to the sky.
The servants scattered copper coins and candies to the crowd, and people scrambled for them and said auspicious words.
Chi Xingyue came out of Qingfeng Courtyard to join in the fun. He was blocked by Ling Yi on the left and protected by Yinbao on the right. Baozhu led the way in front and two pillars blocked the rear. He looked like a golden nugget.
The guests were quite surprised when they saw her, but when they noticed her belly, they understood.
I subconsciously avoided her and greeted her.
"How many months has this been?"
Chi Xingyue was vague: "About four or five months."
"It's still early, why is your belly so big?"
Chi Xingyue smiled and said, "If the food is good, the child will grow fast."
Two sentences, both false, but she didn't care.
The main reason is that I have watched too many palace and family fighting dramas, and subconsciously don’t want to tell the truth.
The guests didn't think much of it and turned their attention to the newlyweds.
The two of them were wearing red wedding gowns and looked a perfect match.
Chi Xingyue looked at Tong Sinian's face through the gauze and found it quite delicate.
With her gentle features and bright eyes, it's no wonder she could charm Ji Hao.
The next step was to worship heaven and earth. After this process, the young couple was sent to the bridal chamber.
A group of soldiers who had just returned from the battlefield followed with laughter, while the others sat on the chairs, waiting for the meal to start.
Seeing this, Chi Xingyue turned around and went back to Qingfeng Courtyard.
It’s not that she doesn’t give face to the new daughter-in-law, but her physical condition makes it inconvenient for her to eat out.
I was afraid that one of them would lose control and vomit, which would ruin everyone's fun.
Liang Zhijun expressed her understanding and even asked the small kitchen to prepare a separate table for Chi Xingyue.
Chi Xingyue declined politely: "Aunt, on the wedding day, let's focus on the guests first. I have Baozhu to help me, so I don't have to worry about going hungry."
Baozhu also said that she had good cooking skills and could take good care of the second young master's wife.
In this way, Chi Xingyue was separated and did not participate in today's dinner.
She didn't feel uncomfortable, but rather felt at ease.
Drinking the chicken soup Baozhu made specially for her, she felt warm in her stomach.
After the meal, I also had a plate of strawberries to relieve the greasiness.
"Baozhu, go ask if Third Aunt has sent any food to the new bride. Don't forget about it in your busy life."
Baozhu nodded and trotted away.
After a while, she came back and said, "Second Young Master's Madam, thank goodness you reminded me, otherwise Third Young Master's Madam would have really gone hungry."
He smiled and shared the gossip he had heard: "The third young master was toasting in the front, and the third master and the third lady were chatting with the masters and ladies.
Except for two servants guarding the door of Tinglan Courtyard, the rest of the people were helping outside.
Even the maid who was instructed to deliver meals to the Third Young Master's wife was temporarily reassigned to serve dishes.
If I hadn't arrived in time, the food in the pot would have been burnt."
Baozhu was careful and noticed that Tinglan Courtyard was short of staff. She did not go directly into the kitchen, but asked Erzhu to go to the front hall to replace the maid from the third room.
The maid turned pale when she was reminded.
He trotted back, poured out the chicken soup, added a few more buns, and sent the meal to the new house.
Tong Sinian was very hungry, and was quite moved when he smelled the tempting aroma.
He thanked the little girl and waited until the door was closed again before he started to eat voraciously.
After finishing the meal, I asked someone to clear the dishes, sat quietly on the bed, quietly lifted the veil, and looked around the new environment.
The banquet in the front hall lasted until late at night.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief only after seeing off the last guest.
After sitting for a while, I started cleaning.
The servants worked quickly and the masters were not idle either, helping to put things in place before dragging their tired bodies back to the house.
Ling Jiheng reeked of alcohol and was afraid of disturbing Chi Xingyue, so he took a shower before entering the house.
The moonlight tonight is particularly alluring, and he can't help but be moved when he thinks of the red silk outside.
Unfortunately, Chi Xingyue's belly was too big, so he didn't dare to act rashly. In the end, he kissed and hugged her, and rubbed her to satisfy his craving.
The next day, they slept until noon. When they woke up, Chi Xingyue slapped his forehead.
"It's over, it's over, I missed my sleep!"
Ling Jiheng comforted her, "It's okay, Third Brother hasn't woken up yet. I told Erzhu to keep an eye on what's happening in Tinglan Courtyard."
Chi Xingyue breathed a sigh of relief, but still quickly got up and washed.
After a simple meal, they took the gifts to Rongsiyuan and waited for the newlyweds to meet the elders.
The old lady and others were talking and laughing, but just as Ling Jiheng said, the newcomer had not come out yet.
It seems that the battle was fierce last night, and everyone was laughing in an ambiguous way.
Ling Jiheng and Chi Xingyue were younger in generation and were placed at the very end.
The old lady asked, "Xingyue, why are you up so early? You can still come out in time after Si Nian finishes washing up!"
Chi Xingyue smiled and said, "This is my first time meeting my third brother's wife, so I can't let her wait any longer.
Besides, the kids have been using my belly as a training ground since early morning.
I'm either lifting my legs or doing somersaults. I just want to sleep, but I can't!"
The old lady looked at Chi Xingyue's belly in surprise, thinking that her great-grandson was really energetic.
Just when I was about to ask a few questions, I saw Ling Jihao coming over with his new wife.
One had a satisfied look on his face, while the other had blushing cheeks.
The Ling family looked at the young couple with smiles. Amidst everyone's joking gazes, Ling Jihao and Tong Sinian knelt down and offered tea to the old lady and old man.
"Grandpa and grandma, please have some tea!" The old lady and the old man took the teacup and took a sip.
Hmm, it’s the new leaves of the old tea tree at home. It smells so good.
He put down the cup, took the red envelope from the plate beside him and handed it to Tong Sinian.
Tong Sinian thanked the two elderly people and offered tea to his parents-in-law.
The elders basically gave silver notes, but when it came to the younger generations like Wan Chunqin and Chi Xingyue, they exchanged them for jewelry.
Because Liang Zhijun informed him of the news in advance, Tong Sinian had a good impression of this sister-in-law who had just taken over the position.
Tiantian greeted and was handed a jewelry box, which contained an exquisitely crafted gold bracelet.
Tong Sinian liked it very much and placed the bracelet on the tray supported by Qinglv.
He turned to greet Chi Xingyue, who handed him a box containing a string of pearls.
The pearls are well-proportioned, have an attractive luster and are of excellent quality.
