November 18, the ninth year of the Xuanli reign.
It is auspicious for traveling, getting married, making money, setting up a bed, buying a house...
It was a sunny day in Jinling. Fu Xiaoguan's wedding procession set out at noon. The huge procession walked through the streets of Jinling, attracting countless people to watch.
In this team, Huo Huaijin rode a tall horse to lead the way, and thousands of students from the academy escorted their mentor.
Fu Xiaoguan was wearing a bright red robe and riding on a big horse. He was in the middle of the team, and behind him was a large flower bridge with three platforms and eight people.
Su Rou and Su Su were guarding Fu Xiaoguan on both sides, while the fat man was supposed to be waiting at the house, waiting for the new bride to come in and pour tea for him.
But he seemed to be worried about something. He mingled in the crowd in a wretched manner, following behind the team. He had a happy look on his face, but his small eyes were warily roaming around in the crowd.
The wedding procession went to the palace first and picked up the ninth princess, Yu Wenyun, at the princess's residence.
Yu Wenjun was naturally dressed in a gorgeous dress, her face flushed. Queen Shang was also here, holding Yu Wenjun's hand and once again emphasizing what a wife should do.
Then Fu Xiaoguan jumped off his horse, smiled foolishly, and walked straight towards Yu Wenjun.
He bowed to Queen Shang and said, "Hello, mother-in-law!"
His shout startled everyone around Queen Shang. According to the rules, the one who changed his mind had to return home tomorrow. Could it be that this kid couldn't wait?
How could Fu Xiaoguan know these rules? Empress Shang didn't care. She smiled and said to Fu Xiaoguan, "I have entrusted Wen Yun to you. If she is wronged, don't blame me for holding you accountable!"
"Don't worry, mother-in-law. I feel sorry for her so much, how could I possibly let her suffer any injustice?"
"Well, go ahead."
A group of women held Yu Wenjun's hand and walked towards the sedan chair. Amid the sound of suona and gongs and drums, Fu Xiaoguan bid farewell to Queen Shang and turned away under Yu Wendao's vicious gaze.
Yu Wendao watched the team disappear in the palace, and suddenly remembered that he was two years older than Fu Xiaoguan. This boy was already married, but he was still single... He had to go find Qin Ruoxue.
Queen Shang also looked into the distance, the joy on her face never fading.
My daughter has grown up, found her own place, and has a child. She chose Fu Xiaoguan herself, and there were naturally many twists and turns in the process. Now these twists and turns no longer exist. I hope that their future life will continue to be the same as in the past, and they will love each other for the rest of their lives.
It took Fu Xiaoguan two full hours to bring the three brides back home.
Then he thought of a problem, the betrothal gift... seemed to have not been given!
What the hell, will the three mothers-in-law be unhappy?
I was careless. This was my first time and I was unfamiliar with it. Never mind. I just need to bring my three wives back!
Many people came to the huge Fu Mansion!
There are Qin Bingzhong and his granddaughter Qin Ruoxue, Shangguan Wenxiu and his grandson Shangguan Miao, and of course there are also Jinling Prefecture Governor Ning Yuchun, Xi Xunmei, Shangyu and so on.
There are four major clans left in Shangjing. Except for the Yan clan, whose daughter is married and is considered to be her family, no one came, but representatives from the other three clans came.
There were even more ministers coming from the court. Fu Xiaoguan was the Imperial Counselor of the Secretariat of the Yu Dynasty. He had returned safely from the Wu Dynasty, and he would surely rise to prominence in the future.
So Fu Xiaoguan was very conflicted.
The three brides had already been sent to the main house, but he had to run out to greet each of them one by one - there was no other way, as these people all came with valuable gifts. In Fu Xiaoguan's opinion, such people deserved his respect, so he had to greet and thank them in person.
After a round of compliments and blessings, the guests took their seats. All the chefs in the Sifang Building were busy, and the servants walked happily between the tables carrying bowls and dishes. Drinks were served, and a table full of delicious dishes was served. Fu Xiaoguan shouted, "Let's feast!"
That’s it?
Everyone looked at Fu Xiaoguan and asked, "Shouldn't you be taking the bride out for a walk now?"
This kid... Many people who knew Fu Xiaoguan's personality laughed, so they didn't care about the absurdity of the ceremony and really started eating.
Fu Xiaoguan slipped back to the main house and sat down on a chair. The three brides were not conservative people. They had already taken off their veils and looked at him with joy.
"I'm so tired and hungry. I have to ask Xiaoqi to bring in a table of food."
"Why don't you go out and keep the guests company?"
"No, my face is frozen from smiling."
Dong Shulan rolled her eyes at him, Yan Xiaolou chuckled, but Yu Wenjun felt good because she also felt very tired.
So, it was not until the end of the wedding banquet that Fu Xiaoguan showed up.
"Everyone, please take care. I beg your pardon for any shortcomings in our hospitality... Lord Shangguan, please take your time. Old Qin, I'll come to you for tea some other day... Lord Shang, I'm newlywed, so I need a two-week leave. That's not too much, is it?... Oh, Lord Ning, I'll go to your government office some other day to have a drink... Lord Xu, congratulations on your promotion. I won't be going to the Xu residence for now. I'll see you later..."
Fu Xiaoguan spent half an hour seeing off all the guests before returning to the main house exhausted.
He invited Mr. Fu and asked him to sit at the top of the table.
"Wives, this is our father. Serve tea! He has prepared a big red envelope for you!"
The three women were slightly startled, and naturally served tea happily. The fat man also drank it happily, but... where was the big red envelope?
His old face flushed, and he smiled, "Well, well, I came here in such a hurry. The thing is, I bought a huge villa in Guanyun City, as you all know. In addition, I also bought a manor in Fan State."
"I didn't know you were getting married, and I didn't have time to go back to Linjiang, so..."
Fu Xiaoguan laughed: "So you have to make up for it after you return to Linjiang. No, what's the point of going to Fan State to buy a manor?"
"Wouldn't this be convenient for you to stay in when you go to Fan Country to play?"
This seems to make some sense. Fan Tianning did invite Fu Xiaoguan, but he really didn't have time. In the future, when he has free time, he will take his wife and children out for a walk, so the manor is still necessary.
The three women did not take the red envelope seriously. At this moment, they changed their tone and called Fu Daguan "Dad" one by one, which made Fu Daguan feel very happy.
The seventeen years of my upbringing were worth it after all!
He did not talk to Fu Xiaoguan about the current situation of the Wu Dynasty, nor did he mention the suspicious identity of Empress Dowager Xi.
He hoped that Fu Xiaoguan could get married happily and not be troubled by those trivial matters anymore.
"I've thought about it carefully over the past two days. Linjiang, you guys shouldn't go back for now. I'll just go back and take a look. As for the business in Xishan, Shulan still has to run it."
"No, Fatty, what are you going to do?"
Official Fu chuckled, "Dad also has some things to take care of."
Fu Xiaoguan frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"
"A few little things."
