Yi Ning rubbed her face and sat up straight, asking Zhenzhu to bring her some snacks. She was very hungry that day. Zhenzhu smiled and brought her a few sweet and sour lamb chops, a bowl of snow clam and pigeon soup, and a stack of fried egg pancakes. She said, "My son-in-law prepared it early in the morning, saying you would be hungry."
She glanced at Zhenzhu, who was still smiling at her. Third Brother was so thoughtful, he'd even prepared food for her. Yining then began to eat, but after a full meal and a few drinks, she felt even sleepier. When Zhenzhu left with the square tray, she began to feel sleepy again, forcing herself to sit still.
The noise faded away, and Luo Shenyuan arrived outside the bridal chamber. The two newly assigned maids were still waiting outside, and when they saw him, they bowed and saluted.
Luo Shenyuan waved his hand to let them go down, calmed himself down, and then pushed open the door and walked in.
"Yining?" he called out, but no one answered him. Only the candlelight burned quietly in the room.
Luo Shenyuan first went to the bathroom to bathe and change clothes. After entering the moon gate and drawing aside the curtains, he discovered that she had actually fallen asleep, leaning against the pillar of the Qiangong bed. She was wearing a bright red wedding dress and a phoenix coronet, and it was unclear how heavy it was.
A faint smile appeared on his usually gloomy and handsome face, and he reached out to carry her to bed.
But as soon as he approached Yining, she felt it. When a pair of arms touched her waist, she woke up immediately. But when she looked up, she bumped into Luo Shenyuan's chin. She quickly dodged, but her eyes met his. Seeing his deep gaze, she couldn't help but murmured, "Third brother, are you done with the socializing?"
Luo Shenyuan withdrew his hand and said, "Well, I saw that you fell asleep, so I wanted to carry you to bed."
At first, when he was her brother, she didn't feel anything wrong with him holding her, but now that he was her husband, she felt a sense of awkwardness and ambiguity.
She pushed his hand away and looked around. The maid was not in the room. Not knowing what to say, she just said, "I haven't washed yet, so I can't sleep."
She was still wearing heavy makeup.
"Okay." He nodded. "Do you want me to ask your girl to come in?"
After saying that, he got up and went outside. After a while, Pearl and Hawksbill came in.
The two women helped her remove her golden bun, the red gold knot, the golden hairpin, and her entire headdress. Then they let her hair down. Her hair was as fine and soft as a handful of silk, and once it was untied, it flowed down naturally. She bathed in the ablution room and applied perfume. She gazed at herself bathing in the bronze mirror, lost in thought.
Zhenzhu was also a little nervous. The young lady was still young, and before leaving, Old Madam Wei had asked Zhenzhu and Daimao to go over and remind them that the young lady would not have sex with her son-in-law until she reached the age of marriage. They agreed, but at this time they were a little nervous. How could they know if they had sex or not, since they were not waiting in the room. If the son-in-law forced the young lady to have sex with him, it might not be possible to make up for it. Therefore, they could only remind Yining: "If the son-in-law treats you badly and you feel uncomfortable, you must call the servants in. Do you remember?"
Seeing the two of them so nervous, Yi Ning wanted to laugh. How could Third Brother treat her badly? But Zhenzhu was serious. After all, when she saw the young lady standing next to her son-in-law, she was only as tall as his shoulder! She was very slender, while her son-in-law was tall and strong, and he was already twenty-two years old...
"Okay, I'll remember that." Yi Ning thought it was okay, so she agreed without hesitation. Anyway, a maid had just brought in another quilt, probably on Luo Shenyuan's orders. She was still a little nervous, but not uneasy. She asked Zhenzhu and Daimao to leave first, then walked into the moon gate and drew aside the curtains of the Qiangong bed.
When I went in, I found him already asleep outside the bed, his eyes closed. He was wearing a snow-white satin dress, his solid chest rising and falling slightly.
Yining breathed a sigh of relief. It was good to fall asleep. When she fell asleep, she wouldn't have to worry about how to face him.
She turned around and looked around the room, and saw that the pair of dragon and phoenix candles were still burning. She walked quietly to the pair of candles and stared at the burning candles in a daze.
The flames flickered slightly in the cold night, and knocking sounds came from outside.
She remembered that she had to cut the lantern flowers before going to bed. She hadn't remembered this when she got married in her previous life. It was a custom in the world, and whether you believed it or not, you had to follow it... Yining looked around for a pair of scissors wrapped in red silk, thrust them into the dancing flames, and snapped.
She tiptoed to the bed and prepared to sleep inside, but when she tried to roll over him, her steps were too small and she accidentally tripped over his hand. She tried to grab hold of something but it was too late, and she fell on him with a cry of surprise.
Then she looked up and saw his eyes looking at her. He was not asleep at all. He must have been pretending just now.
The two were too close to each other. Yining tried to get up several times, but his scorching gaze was as sharp as a blade, and she couldn't get up at all.
"Third brother, I was careless..." Yining whispered, "I can't get up, please help me."
Her long hair fell over her body, and beneath her satin dress, she revealed her snow-white, delicate skin, soft and delicate, with a soft shadow further inside. The wrist pressing against his chest was also slender, as soft and fragrant as jade, and wherever it touched him, it felt firm and hot. Luo Shenyuan had been dreaming of her for years, but whenever he encountered her, he was afraid he would lose control, so he kept his distance. But the feeling of her in his dreams, held in his arms, pressed against him, was something he had longed for for days, but he only held back because he remembered his prior promise to her.
When he heard the sound of water just now, Luo Shenyuan tensed up all over, but he just closed his eyes and pretended to sleep. He heard her getting closer and closer, but unexpectedly she fell on him and couldn't get up!
"Okay." He slowly took her hand. He knew he was going to help her up, but for some reason, he suddenly pulled her down. Yining couldn't resist his strength. Before she could react, she fell on him again.
