Two months passed quickly, and before the winter snow came, Wen Ye was finally getting married.
But who can tell her why she has to get up so early to get married?
Wen Ye was pulled out of the quilt by several maids while feeling dizzy. She was pushed into the bathtub without any preparation. After being washed from head to toe, she was immediately pushed to sit in front of the dressing table.
Various rouge and powder were applied on her face. After an unknown amount of time, it was dawn outside.
Wen Ye, who had recovered some of her spirit at this time, looked at herself in the bronze mirror, which was obviously much more beautiful than usual, and suddenly began to admire herself.
The bride is indeed the most beautiful.
At this time, the maids brought the wedding dress over. Wen Ye stood up with a golden bun on her head and spread her arms. The wedding dress was a bit complicated and it took her a full quarter of an hour to put it on.
Aunt Chang came to Wen Ye's room early in the morning. Her eyes were red and swollen, half of them were reluctant and half of them were relieved, and finally all of them turned into tears in her eyes.
Wen Ran, who was standing next to her, had obviously cried as well.
Wen Ye smiled at them: "Well, haven't you always wanted me to get married? Why are you reluctant now?"
When Aunt Chang heard her say this, tears suddenly fell from her eyes.
It looks even more pitiful.
Wen Ye used some persuasion to finally coax the man into submission.
In the blink of an eye, the auspicious moment arrived.
As the bride's sedan chair arrived at the door, the sound of firecrackers could be heard outside.
The red veil fell, blocking Wen Ye's sight. She looked at the blurry faces of her relatives through the fiery red wedding veil and smiled calmly.
The maid said respectfully, "Fourth Miss, it's time to get up."
Wen Ye hummed lightly, took one last look at Aunt Chang and Wen Ran, and then walked out of Hengwu Courtyard in a decisive and decisive manner.
In Hengwu Courtyard, except Yunzhi and Taozhi, the rest also followed Wen Ye to the Duke's Mansion.
This was Wen Ye's request, and the reason was simple: she was used to using these people.
Shen didn't say much and added some more chambermaids for her.
Taozhi was the last one to leave Hengwu Courtyard. She had something to say to Aunt Chang and Wenran: "Aunt Chang, Fifth Miss, our young lady left something for you. She has already given it to Sister Jinjue."
Jinju is a maid in Xicuiyuan and has served Aunt Chang for more than ten years.
Aunt Chang and Wen Ran looked at each other.
Wen Ye, what did you leave for them?
The mother and daughter returned to Xi Cui Yuan with doubts. Aunt Chang asked Jin Jue, "Where is the thing Tao Zhi gave you?"
Jinju replied, "I'll put it in your room."
Aunt Chang entered the room and saw a rather large wooden box on the corner of the table.
She walked over, opened the wooden box, and what came into view was a letter and several books.
Aunt Chang and her daughter looked at each other, opened the envelope, and found that it contained a recipe, which recorded all the strange cooking methods that Wen Ye had made in the past.
Aunt Chang read it from beginning to end and her eyes became hot.
Wen Ran's gaze moved from the recipe to the books in the box, his eyes suddenly lit up and he exclaimed in surprise.
Aunt Chang asked hurriedly, "What's wrong?"
Wen Ran looked through the books in the box excitedly and said, "These books are sold at the bookstore. The cheapest one costs twenty-five taels a copy! Sister bought so many. I'm afraid she must have spent several hundred taels."
Aunt Chang was also shocked: "So expensive?!"
The most expensive book Wen Ran had ever bought was only ten taels.
Aunt Chang saw how Wen Ran was enjoying these books, so she said, "Since your sister has bought them, you should keep them well, but remember her kindness."
Wen Ran nodded in delight, but then hesitated and said, "But I only spent a little over five taels to buy the book for Fourth Sister."
Comparing the two, Wen Ran felt that her sister's performance was not up to par.
Aunt Chang said, "Different books have different prices, but I remember you bought quite a lot, and packed a small box with them. How come you only spent five taels?"
When she was helping to pack the dowry, she took a look at it. Although the box was not big, it was indeed full.
Wen Ran touched the book cover, then looked up at Aunt Chang and said seriously, "The books on the list that Fourth Sister gave me are relatively cheap. You can buy three or four books for one or two taels."
There were twenty-four books in total, and the six taels of silver were not spent yet.
Aunt Chang's eyelids twitched, and she had a bad feeling in her heart. She quickly asked, "What books are there?"
Wen Ran replied truthfully: "I only remember a few books called "Girl in Arms", "The Fox and the Scholar", "The Passionate Young Widow" and so on."
Wen Ran was six years old and had just started elementary school for a year. She had only learned things from books and no one taught her these things. Therefore, she did not understand the meaning of the term "hot-blooded young widow".
When Aunt Chang heard this, her face, which had turned red from her hot tears, instantly turned green: "......"
Of course, Wen Ye's dowry had already been carried to the Duke's Mansion in boxes.
In the center of the main hall, Wen Ye silently looked at the man approaching him.
Wearing a red dress and a brocade belt, she walks calmly.
Xu Yuejia walked slowly to Wen Ye's left side. Congratulations and cheers never stopped coming from all around. Wen Ye lowered her eyes, and all she could see was a pair of wedding boots and half of the slightly moving hem of her wedding dress.
The two of them bowed to Father Wen and Shen.
After the ceremony, one end of the wedding silk was stuffed into Wen Ye's hand, and at the same time, a bony hand grasped the other end of the wedding silk. The moment the two turned around tacitly, they looked at each other unexpectedly, and under the joy that penetrated their skin, there was a calm lake.
Just like that, the two of them walked out of the main gate of the Wen Mansion step by step, at a distance that was neither too long nor too short.
When she stepped over the last threshold, Wen Ye paused for a moment. Stepping out of this door today meant that she would start an unknown life again.
Does this count as her third reincarnation?
Xu Yuejia in front seemed to notice her hesitation and slowed down her pace without making a sound.
The carriage traveled all the way from the Wen family to the Duke's Mansion and landed in front of the main gate.
Wen Ye walked out of the sedan chair slowly. At this moment, a hand stretched out to her. The fingertips were slightly long, and the palm was thin and wide. It was unlike the hands of scholars that Wen Ye had seen before, such as the hands of Wen's eldest brother, which were thin and slender, with only a few thin strands on the knuckles where he held the pen.
The hand of the man approaching seemed to contain infinite power and was unfathomable.
Amidst the cheers and joy, Wen Ye put his hand into Xu Yuejia's.
The old Duke and his wife of the Duke's Mansion had passed away for many years, so they were kneeling to worship their tablets. After a series of procedures, Wen Ye was welcomed into the bridal chamber.
After the last cup of wedding wine was served, it was already late in the evening.
After the idle people left, except for the maids waiting outside, only Wen Ye and Xu Yuejia were left in the room.
After lifting the veil, Wen Ye saw Xu Yuejia's face clearly for the first time.
He is indeed worthy of making women in Shengjing fall in love with him for life at first sight.
The figure as gentle as the breeze and as light as a cypress turned around, with thin brows and bright eyes, but dressed in red, which added a hint of lust.
A quick glance is enough to confuse people.
However, Wen Ye's eyes remained calm throughout, except for a moment of surprise at the beautiful things at the beginning.
"What do you want to eat? Call the maid to bring it." Xu Yuejia said in a deep voice, "I'll be back later."
After saying this, he left the bridal chamber without waiting for Wen Ye's response.
As soon as Wen Ye and the others left, he immediately relaxed his shoulders and rubbed his back, while shouting outside, "Yun Zhi."
"Madam." Yunzhi came in with a tray on which were several snacks. "Taozhi and Sister Liuya are going to serve the hot food. Please eat two pieces of soft cake first to fill your stomach."
Wen Ye said, "Quick, quick, quick! Take this thing off my head. It's too heavy."
My neck is about to break after wearing it for a day.
Yunzhi quickly put down the tray and came over to help.
A quarter of an hour later, after successfully removing the cumbersome headdress, Wen Ye sat down at the table, a teacup in one hand and a pastry in the other.
After a while, Taozhi and Liuya, the maid from the west courtyard, brought the hot food to the table.
The food was relatively light, not what Wen Ye usually liked. But for her who had been hungry for the whole day, it didn't matter what she ate. Filling her stomach and staying alive was the most important thing.
Wen Ye had half a bowl of shredded pork noodles, a few pieces of steamed fish and meat, and a few chopsticks of green vegetables.
I don't dare eat too much because I have to exercise later.
After finishing the meal, Wen Ye went to the side room to wash up. After returning to the inner bedroom, he saw that Xu Yuejia had not returned yet, so he called the maids in the west courtyard to find out what was going on.
The person who came in with Taozhi just now is called Liuya. She said that after the second wife passed away, most of the affairs in the West Courtyard were handed over to her by the Duke's wife, and they only checked them once every ten days.
There are not many maids in the West Courtyard, only two first-class maids, and the other one is called Liu Xin. Liu Ya is in charge of the backyard of the West Courtyard, while Liu Xin focuses more on the front yard.
In other words, all affairs in Xu Yuejia's study are in charge of Liu Xin.
Wen Ye did not ask further questions. He just roughly understood how many people there were and then let them leave.
Before she could even relax, Xu Yuejia went back to the house.
He smelled a little more drunk than before he left, but not too much, and it was obvious that he hadn't had a few drinks.
It's no wonder. With his current status and position, few people would dare to force him to drink.
Wen Ye did not shy away from his gaze and asked, "Should we send someone to help my husband wash up?"
Anyway, she doesn't know how to serve anyone.
"No need." Xu Yuejia replied calmly, then went to the bathroom alone.
The hot water inside has been prepared in advance.
A quarter of an hour later, Xu Yuejia changed into pajamas, with her black hair hanging down behind her like a waterfall.
The candles swayed, and as I looked closer, her features looked even more desolate, as if she were ice stuck in the heat, refusing to melt.
Wen Ye was lustful but abstinent, and her mouth suddenly became dry.
She does not deserve such beauty.
After a few breaths, Xu Yuejia turned to look at her and said, "Go to bed."
Then he pulled down the curtain on his side, and Wen Ye looked at his back, with a strange look in his eyes.
The red candles burned long, and after a passionate love affair, they each wrapped themselves in blankets and fell asleep.
Wen Ye, who was originally tired after a whole day, suddenly no longer felt sleepy after this experience.
The curtains blocked out all the candlelight, and everything in front of her was dark.
Wen Ye couldn't help but think more, it's true that it's impossible for a person to be perfect.
God opened countless doors for Xu Yuejia, but forgot to open the only window.
Wen Ye was in the darkness, and he never closed his eyes.
Just when she felt something, it was over.
The time is not short, but the technology needs to be discussed.
Or maybe it's because he used to sleep alone, and now there's suddenly someone next to him, and he's not used to it yet?
Xu Yuejia slept straight and proper. After a long time, she noticed that the person next to her was still awake, so she asked, "What's wrong?"
Of course Wen Ye knew that Xu Yuejia was not asleep either, so she was still somewhat alert.
But what she didn't expect was that he would take the initiative to speak. After all, from the first time they met until now, Wen Ye's deepest impression of him was that he was a man of few words.
"Nothing." Wen Ye suddenly came to his senses and said, "But since we haven't fallen asleep yet, why not try again?"
There is no need to explain what this 'one more time' means.
Xu Yuejia: "......"
After a while, the clouds and rain started again, and after a few more times, they finally stopped.
Soon, Wen Ye fell asleep with the quilt in his arms, with a trace of satisfaction remaining on his face.
However, Xu Yuejia on the outside couldn't fall asleep for a long time.
