Chapter 30 Wedding

"They have the nerve to do it, but I'm ashamed to say it." Lu Yao snorted coldly and shook his sleeves heavily.

One after another, the eaves were filled with people.

Including Gu Zhen, who had disheveled hair and an angry face.

"Aqiu!"

Gu Zhen was really upset.

If this happened at any banquet in the capital, her reputation would be ruined, and the integrity and family tradition of the Duke's Mansion would be questioned.

Aqiu is her personal maid.

It is said that when beating a dog, you have to look at the owner first. That personal maid has no shame. What will others think of her!

He only knows how to ridicule and mock his master behind his back.

"Miss, it's not like that. It's not what you see."

"My relationship with these two people is innocent, nothing dirty has happened."

"Miss."

Aqiu knelt on the ground and explained while crying.

The guards were the same. "Miss, how dare we two brothers touch Miss Qiu?"

"Please give me your judgment, young lady."

There was a flash of anger in Gu Zhen's eyes, and he narrowed his eyes and glanced at him coldly.

The winter morning light was just beginning to break, and the morning breeze brushed the corners of her clothes, gently fluttering them. In the sky, birds looking for food spread their wings and flew over the treetops from time to time.

Gu Zhen knew the inside story clearly.

“The process is right or wrong, but the result is not.”

"The result at this moment is that you have brought shame to me and the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion."

"Aqiu, you are so hateful." Gu Zhen's eyes finally fell on Aqiu and did not leave for a long time.

"I don't want to bring bad luck to such a happy day."

"Take care of yourself."

After returning home, she will tell her father everything about her brother's absurdity, Aqiu's betrayal, and the guard's choice, and her father will give a fair punishment.

Gu Zhen glanced to the side and looked at Lu Yao, whose clothes were wet by the night frost and morning dew. What else did he not understand?

Gu Zhen raised her eyes, a smile spread across her lips, and she took Lu Mingchao's arm. "Mingchao, I'll dress you up. You will definitely be the most beautiful bride."

"Let's go. Don't let these messy things affect your mood."

Lu Mingchao responded with a smile, but his eyes never fell on the three kneeling people. Instead, he looked at Lu Yao with concern.

Seeing Lu Yao shaking his head, I finally felt relieved.

The mist clears and the sun rises.

As the sun rose higher, more and more people came into the Lu family courtyard.

The yard was small and there were not enough tables, chairs, and dishes, so Lu Lei borrowed some from a familiar neighbor. After moving back, he simply placed them on the road outside the yard.

Lu Mingchao sat upright in front of the dressing table, his neck becoming a little stiff.

After Yunniang combed Lu Mingchao's hair, Gu Zhen patted his chest and took a big look at Lu Mingchao's makeup.

Her eyebrows are like paintings, lightly drawn with indigo, her eyes are like autumn water, and her eyes seem to be filled with the fragrance of fallen flowers. Her high bun is decorated with bright and attractive hairpins, which complement the hairpins on her head. She is gorgeous and graceful, and her eyebrows, eyes, and demeanor are full of infinite charm, which makes people intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves.

Gu Zhen was almost staring.

She knew that Lu Mingchao was beautiful, but she didn't know she could be so beautiful that people could not take their eyes off her.

After all, his blind brother liked plain and scholarly looks, and once disliked Lu Mingchao for being vulgar, so Lu Mingchao's makeup and clothes were as plain and elegant as possible, rarely bright and charming.

Who would have thought that after putting on heavy makeup, she would look like a fairy concubine.

Her brother really suffered a great loss!

Gu Zhen could even imagine Gu Huai's regret flowing like a surging river.

Regret it, it's no use even if you regret it till your intestines rot. Lu Mingchao will soon be a married woman.

"Ming Chao, wouldn't that hunter be embarrassed standing next to you?"

In the past, she had only been described as a beauty and a beast by storytellers in teahouses, but today she would have the honor of witnessing it with her own eyes.

Lu Mingchao raised his hand and rubbed his stiff neck, saying with a sad but smiling tone, "No."

Xie Yan is the young general in fine clothes and on a vigorous horse in her mind.

Gu Zhen let out a light click of her tongue, not taking it seriously. She thought it was just a statement made against one's will, and she was trying to save face for her fiancé.

"Where's the wedding dress?"

The yard was bustling with activity. From time to time, young children would stand on tiptoe outside the door to peek inside, hoping to catch a glimpse of the bride. The air was filled with the rich aroma of fried food and meat, and the sounds of pots and pans colliding intertwined into the simplest and warmest melody.

Lu Mingchao pointed at the rounded corner cabinet that the Lu family father and son had just finished making with the help of a carpenter. "It's inside."

In the rounded corner cabinet there were two quilts that Yunniang had personally sewn for her using the cotton she had saved, a stack of insoles, and two sets of newly tailored clothes.

These were her dowry.

Gu Zhen sighed in his heart, but he didn't want to say any more sad words, which would only make Lu Mingchao sigh and feel sad.

If Ming Chao was still the legitimate daughter of the Yongning Marquis's mansion and was getting married with her brother today, the scene would be grand and spectacular, with red makeup stretching for an endless line for ten miles, drums and music making the scene extremely lively, wedding candies falling like rain, and banquets lasting for three days without stopping. All the people in the capital city would be able to share in the joy.

But now, I can only feel this wronged.

Gu Zhen shook her head, stopped thinking about it, and reached out to open the rounded corner cabinet.

What comes into view is the wedding dress that is as colorful as clouds.

Gu Zhen:!!!

Gold embroidery?

Pearls on it?

This wedding dress was much better than she had imagined.

She still thought that in the Ming Dynasty, she could only get married in a pitiful wedding dress made of casually cut red cloth.

Her expectations were so low that she was shocked.

"Is this wedding dress prepared for you by your parents?" Gu Zhen murmured incoherently.

Gu Sheng smiled and shook his head, "Thank you for sending it."

Gu Zhen's eyes sparkled, and he finally developed a liking for the rough hunter whom he had never met.

Good, you know how to care for people.

The fact that the hunters from a small village like Changxi were willing to give the Ming Dynasty such a regulated wedding dress was enough to show that they placed great trust in the Ming Dynasty.

"Stand up and I'll put on your wedding dress."

Lu Mingchao sighed and stood up resignedly.

As she moved, the pearl tassels on her bun swayed slightly, which was fascinating.

The sun has already climbed very high.

Yunniang, who was busy entertaining neighbors outside, knocked on the door gently. "Chaochao, it's mother."

Gu Zhen opened the door, and Yunniang finally squeezed in among the group of children.

The corners of Yunniang's eyes were red and her eye sockets were wet, as if covered with a layer of mist. She choked with sobs and said, "My, Chao Chao, you are so beautiful."

Yunniang seemed to have thousands of words stuck in her throat, and she was too clumsy to know where to start.

I can only repeat it over and over again: be good, live a good life, and don't endure any grievances.

Lu Mingchao nodded, "Mom, don't worry."

"Where are the big brothers?"

Yunniang wiped the tears from her eyes with the back of her hand. "Your eldest brother and second brother were fighting over who would carry you out on the sedan chair, and Xiaoxin was playing with stones with a group of kids."

Lu Mingchao smiled and said, "Second brother definitely won."

Yunniang raised her eyebrows, quite surprised, and blurted out "How do you know?"

Lu Mingchao smiled but said nothing.

Of course it’s because Lu Yao is very cunning.

When it comes to cunning, eight hundred Lu Lei are no match for one Lu Yao.
