Chapter 1 Big Rooster Visits the Hall
Blackwater City.
March 16th.
The streets were crowded with people, and people lined both sides of the streets to watch this wedding of the century.
Today is the wedding day of City Lord Rong Chen and Shu family’s eldest daughter Shu Wan.
Shu Wan was sitting in the bridal sedan, still in a daze.
Who could tell her what was going on? When she opened her eyes, she was sitting in a sedan chair and was about to get married?
She was clearly a top lawyer in the 21st century, but because she worked without rest for three days, she tragically died suddenly at her workplace.
When she woke up again, she found herself in the body of Shu Wan, who had the same name as her.
And she even wore it on the bridal sedan.
The original owner was forced to leave her beloved and marry the city lord Rong Chen, so she was so depressed that she died of anger in the bridal sedan on the wedding day. That's why Shu Wan got such an advantage.
The original owner, Shu Wan, had a childhood sweetheart and cousin, Li Zihao, with whom she had a close rapport. However, three months ago, her parents suddenly arranged a marriage for her and Rong Chen.
For this, she cried and made a fuss, and even attempted suicide more than once. Finally, today, she died as she wished.
Shu Wan sighed, this young man!
Outside, there was a loud bang of gongs and drums and the blast of firecrackers, which made Shu Wan's head buzz with pain.
She couldn't accept the idea that she would get married the moment she traveled through time, and with the intention of helping the original owner, she decided not to get married. However, the original owner was asking for trouble by not eating or drinking and starving herself. Now Shu Wan had no strength at all, so she had to lean back in the sedan chair, close her eyes and rest, and at the same time absorb the original owner's memories.
The continent that Shu Wan traveled to did not exist in history. It consisted of three kingdoms and one city.
The three kingdoms are Crescent Moon Kingdom, Red Flame Kingdom, and Northern Shuo Kingdom.
The first city refers to Blackwater City.
This is the place where the original owner lived.
It is said that Rong Chen, the Lord of Blackwater City, is a living devil who kills without blinking an eye. If a child cries at night, the parents can tell him that Rong Chen is coming, and the child will be quiet...
It is said that in the past, several women who were reckless climbed into his bed without permission, and he chopped off their hands and feet and tortured them to death.
How terrible this is!
Anyone who marries him might die within a few days.
This is why people came out today to see the wedding.
Rong Chen finally got married, and the people in the city finally breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that their daughters would no longer be harmed.
Part of the reason why the original owner refused to marry was because she was too afraid of Rong Chen.
But Shu Wan thought about it and it made sense. The three countries of Xinyue, Chiyan and Beishuo were eyeing Blackwater City covetously. If Rong Chen was a fool, Blackwater City would have been divided up by the other three countries long ago. Without some iron-blooded tactics, how could he sit firmly on the position of city lord?
While she was daydreaming, the sedan chair had already arrived at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.
"Kick the sedan!"
The matchmaker kicked the door of the sedan chair, signaling Shu Wan to get out, but Shu Wan in the sedan chair did not respond at all.
The smile on the matchmaker's face froze for a moment, but she also knew that the woman inside was unwilling to get married, so it was understandable that this was the case.
"The bride is shy!" So she tried to smooth things over with a smile, then lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, bent down and reached out to help Shu Wan.
"My dear aunt, it's already this late, please stop making trouble!" She advised in a voice that only Shu Wan could hear, "If you marry the city lord, you will be the superior person. Everyone who sees you in the future will have to pay their respects, right?"
"Well, fuck!" Shu Wan, who was too hungry to walk, handed her his hand and replied in a coquettish voice.
"What?" The matchmaker didn't understand what she meant.
"Nothing." Shu Wan shook her head gently. "I say, you are right." She answered softly.
Hearing her say this, matchmaker felt relieved, thinking that she had finally figured it out.
"The bride is getting out of the sedan!" she sang loudly, helping Shu Wan walk towards the gate. Many children at the gate cheered loudly as they finally saw the bride.
Next, there is a series of complicated etiquette rules, such as stepping over the fire basin after entering the door.
Shu Wan put most of her strength on the arms of the bridegroom, causing her to groan in pain, wondering if she was too sick to walk. It was said that the eldest daughter of the Shu family wanted to die and was unwilling to marry, but was finally forced into the bridal sedan by her family.
Alas, he is a poor man indeed!
After entering the wedding hall, the most important part of the entire wedding begins, which is when the newlyweds pay homage to heaven and earth.
But what surprised Shu Wan was that the groom Rong Chen did not appear here at all.
Only then did she realize that Rong Chen did not go to the Shu Mansion to pick up the bride today, but asked a subordinate to do it on his behalf.
However, you can pick up the bride, but you can’t do the wedding ceremony.
So now, Shu Wan was the only bride standing in the lobby.
Shu Wan: Young people have no martial ethics.
Everyone sighed.
The city lord has gone too far this time!
No matter what, you can't just leave the bride alone in the wedding hall on the wedding day.
Although the news that Shu Wan was willing to die to resist this marriage spread throughout the Blackwater City? Shu Wan's eyes were a little cold. In the original owner's memory, it was the City Lord's Mansion that first found the Shu family for this marriage, but what did Rong Chen mean now? It was obvious that he was embarrassing her.
"Chen'er, is there something urgent that has delayed you?" Sitting on the high hall was a well-maintained woman in her forties. Seeing the current situation, she had no choice but to speak up and find a way for Rong Chen to save face.
According to the original owner's memory, Shu Wan knew that this woman was Rong Chen's mother, Zhao.
Shu Wan reached out and lifted the veil, and suddenly, a stunningly beautiful face that was unparalleled in the world appeared in front of everyone.
Even though her face was a little pale, it couldn't conceal her beauty. On the contrary, it gave her some advantages.
The sick and weak Xi Shi is three points better! I really feel pity for her.
Everyone was quite dissatisfied with Rong Chen's actions today.
"Madam." Shu Wan held the matchmaker's hand tightly, trying to keep herself steady, and said in a hoarse voice, "Since the city lord has no intention of marrying me, and I'm not the kind of person who would pester him, why don't we call this marriage off now." It was better this way, as it saved her the trouble of getting a divorce later.
"Wanwan, don't be angry." Zhao hurriedly comforted her, "Chen'er must have been delayed by some urgent matter, he didn't do such a thing on purpose. Wanwan, don't bother with that boy, but no matter what the matter is, he shouldn't have left you here alone today. I will teach him a lesson later and make him apologize to you in person." Zhao's words were very humble. If Shu Wan refused to give in at this time, she would get a reputation of being disrespectful to elders and mother-in-law.
"Madam is right." Shu Wan raised a smile on her pale face. "The city lord is busy with all kinds of affairs. I really shouldn't care too much about it. Government affairs are more important." She nodded generously, indicating that what Zhao said was very reasonable.
Hearing this, Zhao's face was a little embarrassed. Government affairs were important. What kind of government affairs could make him leave his bride alone here on the wedding day?
"But what should we do now?" Shu Wan continued to ask without giving Zhao a chance to speak, "We can ask someone to pick up the bride, but we can't ask someone to do the wedding ceremony, right? Should I do it alone or skip this step and go directly to the bridal chamber?" Shu Wan gritted his teeth. If Rong Chen dared to find someone to do the wedding ceremony on his behalf today, then Shu Wan could find someone to go to the bridal chamber on his behalf later! Shu Wan's words stumped Zhao. How could they go directly to the bridal chamber without doing the wedding ceremony? It was against the rules.
"Someone, go and get the city lord back immediately." Zhao gritted her teeth, slammed the table and decided, "No matter what urgent matter he has, he must be invited back. If he doesn't come, he must be tied up and brought back to me!" Zhao still remembered to tell everyone that Rong Chen was delayed because of government affairs, and he didn't mean to humiliate Shu Wan.
At this time, the housekeeper in the mansion walked forward tremblingly and answered.
"Replying to the old lady!" He had a fearless expression, "The city lord received an urgent report an hour ago, so he left the city. I'm afraid he won't be back for three days. Because he left in a hurry, he didn't have time to inform the old lady. He only asked this old servant to apologize to Miss Shu on his behalf!" He clearly told Shu Wan that Rong Chen couldn't come back, so she had to deal with it herself. Moreover, the housekeeper addressed Shu Wan as Miss Shu, not Madam.
"Wanwan, this..." Zhao looked at Shu Wan in embarrassment. Now she didn't know what to do. She only found out now that Rong Chen had left the city.
However, the housekeeper's words were very clear. Rong Chen really had something urgent to do and did not intend to leave Shu Wan here.
After listening to this, the guests understood Rong Chen to some extent, but they also felt just as much sympathy for Shu Wan.
"Since the city lord has important tasks to attend to, as his wife, I will naturally support him." Shu Wan smiled at everyone. She was so charming and stunning that everyone was mesmerized by her. They were even more satisfied with her sensible and generous nature.
Who said that the eldest daughter of the Shu family is a playboy and uneducated? She is obviously a sensible and well-mannered lady from a noble family.
"Wanwan, you have been really wronged!" The Zhao family was quite satisfied with Shu Wan's performance. If Shu Wan made a fuss today, it would not look good, after all, they were in the wrong first.
"You're welcome, old lady!" Shu Wan smiled gently, "Butler, could you please find me a rooster?" She turned her head and looked at the butler who was standing beside her, watching her closely.
"Hmm? I wonder what Miss Shu wants a rooster for?" The butler, who was suddenly called, was startled and asked respectfully.
"The housekeeper will soon know what it is used for. However, please don't call me Miss Shu anymore!" Shu Wan said with a sweet smile, "Since I have married into the City Lord's Mansion, please call me Madam. It's against the rules to call me Miss Shu anymore!"
"Yes..." The butler's body was shocked. "Madam is right. I will go down and prepare now." He said quickly and then retreated.
After hearing what Shu Wan said, everyone came to their senses.
The eldest daughter of the Shu family is not a soft persimmon that can be bullied by anyone!
In just a few words, he cursed the City Lord's Mansion.
Although she did not blame the housekeeper for asking her what she wanted a chicken for, her meaning was very clear. She was the master, and if she wanted something, she had to tell her servants clearly what she wanted it for before she could get it.
Secondly, she had already married into the city lord's mansion, but the servants in the mansion did not treat her as a lady, and called her Miss Shu all the time. Was it someone's idea? Zhao Shi, who understood the meaning of her words, looked a little unhappy, but she still held back and did not get angry. Today, they were indeed at fault first.
If she taught Shu Wan a lesson now, people would inevitably have something to complain about. Her son had just left the bride alone, and she, as the mother-in-law, started teaching her daughter-in-law the rules. If this got out, it would not sound good.
No one thought Shu Wan had gone too far. After all, he was the one who was wronged first.
However, I'm afraid Miss Shu will have a hard time in the future.
Soon, the housekeeper came back with a big rooster with shiny feathers. This rooster was very special, with reddish brown and black feathers. Most importantly, the hair next to its comb was white, which was particularly eye-catching.
"That's it!" Shu Wan was very satisfied. "Butler, please get me another big red flower." Shu Wan took the big rooster and held it in his hands. Wow, it weighed at least seven or eight kilograms.
"...Yes, ma'am." The butler subconsciously wanted to ask her what she was going to do, but thinking of the lesson just now, he just shut up.
Everyone looked at Shu Wan, wanting to see what she was doing.
Shu Wan put the red flower given to her by the housekeeper around the neck of the big rooster.
Everyone was confused.
"Big rooster, big rooster, thank you for your help." Shu Wan said to the big rooster in a serious tone, "My husband is not here, and you have helped him so much. We will all thank you! Okay, housekeeper, here, please hold this rooster and marry me!" After she finished talking to the rooster, she said something shocking.
"What?" The housekeeper's eyes widened as big as copper bells, looking at Shu Wan in disbelief. If it weren't for his self-control telling him not to lose his composure, he would have screamed out loud.
He looked around with tears in his eyes, then looked at Zhao who was sitting on the upper throne.
Holding this chicken and getting married with Shu Wan?
He couldn't do it! He was afraid that he wouldn't see the sun tomorrow.
"Wedding ceremony." Shu Wan had a puzzled look on her face, as if asking, "What's that?" "My husband can't come back due to some matters, but we have to have the wedding ceremony. Could it be that the housekeeper will do the wedding ceremony on behalf of my husband and me?" She looked at the housekeeper very sincerely.
The butler broke out in a cold sweat and looked at Zhao for help.
"Butler, do as Madam says!" The corners of Zhao's mouth couldn't help but twitch, she was so angry.
Shu Wan actually dared to compare a chicken to her son!
Not only the Zhao family, but all the guests present were also shocked by Shu Wan's outrageous move.
Only she could have come up with the idea of using a big rooster for a wedding.
Fu Shu was very satisfied with the result, so he happily married the big rooster! When the witness shouted for the couple to bow to each other, he was already crying in his heart.
"Send her to the bridal chamber!" The witness finally completed the most bizarre task he had ever encountered in his life with great difficulty.
Finally left.
Zhao thought fiercely that she should send this spendthrift girl away as soon as possible and not let her continue to embarrass herself here.
The guests looked at the big rooster in the butler's hand with great interest, wanting to see whether Shu Wan was going to carry the rooster to the bridal chamber.
At this time, Shu Wan spoke again in a shocking way.
"Housekeeper, please take this chicken down, stew it and bring it to my room, thank you." Shu Wan's smile was as kind as it could be. "Oh, by the way, put some mushrooms in it for me, quickly, you know, I'm very hungry!" She suddenly turned around and smiled again, and then she was contented in the two maids'
