Chapter 50: Marriage
Rongzhen could clearly see his appearance through the red veil, and it was the first time she saw it completely.
It was a face with delicate and elegant features without losing its masculine nature. Even with a short buzz cut, he still looked extremely handsome.
He changed into a long gown today, deliberately choosing a festive color, which made his skin look as white as jade, his looks like Pan An, and his tall stature... maybe a little too tall?
"Did he really grow this tall?" Rongzhen murmured.
Auntie Pang, who was listening at the side, smiled sheepishly and explained, "Young Master, like you, is from the north. Naturally, he's taller than the southerners here. It's totally normal."
There are quite a few tall and strong people among the guests now. They are said to be his classmates and teachers, so Jiang Yu’s height does not seem so out of place.
Rongzhen knows that people of Jiang Yu's height are not uncommon among northerners, but wasn't the heroine's father a weak and talented man in the early days?
Is he this tall??
She carefully recalled the information she had obtained for free. It seemed that he was of medium height or a certain height, but no specific information was given.
Considering that he would later join the army and fight on the battlefield, and would make great contributions and rise to a high position, perhaps he might have an advantage in terms of physique?
While Rongzhen was lost in thought, Jiang Yu had already strode up to her.
Ah Cui and Aunt Pang handed the child to him with a smile on their faces, saying auspicious words non-stop: "I wish the young master and the young mistress a happy marriage and a son soon."
"Thank you for your good wishes." Jiang Yu nodded and took Rong Zhen's hand. He felt that it was soft, white, smooth and warm like clouds, and it could slip away if he was not careful.
If he hadn't still had his sanity, he would have wanted to hold her tightly with all his strength and not give her any chance to escape.
But in the end, he could only control the strength and gently wrap the soft hand in his palm.
Rongzhen came back to her senses and felt the heat of his palm. She looked up at his gentle and affectionate eyes, and could not help but lower her head gently, not daring to look at him again.
She thought that the bright lights must have dazzled her, otherwise how could she see the infinite affection in his eyes?
Jiang Yu's eyes followed her every move. Her beautiful eyebrows and eyes, her delicate face like a flower, became even more beautiful and charming against the background of the red gauze, making his heart beat faster and faster, unable to control himself.
The emotions accumulated for many days are like magma gathered in the lake of the heart. The surface can remain calm, but the inside has already been boiling. Just a small spark may cause it to erupt and release everything.
Rongzhen was stared at by his gaze that was as if it were real, and the bun on her head seemed to be burning.
She didn't dare to look up anymore. She subconsciously wanted to move her hand, and heard him say in a hoarse voice in her ear: "It's about to start. Follow me."
He brought her to the center of the living room and bowed to heaven and earth under the blessing gaze of the guests.
The sky and the earth are just outside, and the hall is represented by two chairs in front of the hall.
After the worship, there was a worship between husband and wife. As the housekeeper's voice fell, Rongzhen and Jiang Yu looked at each other, bent down and bowed tacitly, and saluted each other, and then accidentally bumped their heads together with a bang.
The guests present burst into laughter, breaking the previous silence.
Rongzhen was a little dizzy after being hit, and she didn't even know when A Cui helped her back upstairs.
Anyway, after completing the ceremony, her current task was basically completed. The rest of entertaining the guests was Jiang Yu's job, and she just needed to stay in her room.
For convenience, the new house was temporarily served as her living room, which was decorated by Aunt Pang and others to look brand new, and the whole place was red and festive.
She thought that Jiang Yu would leave tonight, and it would be a waste to decorate his room, so she might as well use her own.
Living in such an auspicious room in the future, your life will surely become more and more prosperous.
Rongzhen was thinking in a mess when A Cui helped her sit down on the bed. Her stomach growled at an inopportune moment.
Ah Cui covered her mouth and laughed: "Miss, please wait, I will go downstairs to find you something to eat."
Rong Zhen came back to her senses and told her to bring more. "You've been busy all day, bring it up so we can eat together."
A Cui left in response.
The banquet downstairs had already begun, and the sound of lively toasts could be heard upstairs.
Rongzhen listened to the congratulations carried by the wind and thought that the next time she saw Jiang Yu would be when he was about to leave. Unexpectedly, as soon as A Cui left, he pushed the door open and walked in, followed by a fat aunt holding a tray.
As soon as Auntie Pang came in, she said, "Young Madam, are you hungry? This is the chicken noodle soup that the young master specially ordered for you. Eat it while it's hot."
Jiang Yu dragged a high stool over and placed it in front of Rong Zhen, then turned around and took the tray from Aunt Fat's hand and drove Aunt Fat out with an ambiguous smile.
The tray landed on the high stool with a click, and the chicken soup in the celadon bowl swayed slightly. The noodles as thin as silver threads were shining attractively in it. It was her favorite look these days.
Rongzhen's stomach growled even louder. She sheepishly took the chopsticks Jiang Yu stuffed into her hand and tried to lift the red veil, but was stopped by a big hand.
"It's my turn." Jiang Yu said softly, with a gentle and solemn expression, he slowly lifted the red veil with both hands, as if completing a particularly solemn ceremony.
When the red veil was lifted, Rongzhen's carefully crafted makeup was revealed. Her bright facial features sparkled under the light, like a pearl from the deep sea, finally revealing its original dazzling brilliance tonight.
Rongzhen was unaware of anything and without the red veil covering her, she immediately started eating.
Jiang Yu's eyes slid down from her forehead, and finally fell on her bright red lips uncontrollably.
The pink lips stained with rouge are like flowers, more vibrant and more charming than before, making people want to lean over and hold them in their mouths and kiss them.
Rongzhen ate a few bites to relieve the hunger in her stomach. Finally, she noticed the burning gaze above her head and looked up suddenly: "What are you looking at? Do you want to eat too?"
Even if you want to eat, you can't snatch it from her. Today is a happy occasion, so there must be plenty of food prepared in the kitchen. Just go and eat it yourself.
The moment she looked up, Jiang Yu quickly restrained his expression, slightly shifted his gaze, and said seriously, "Strictly speaking, this bowl of noodles is for the newlyweds to eat together, so..."
Rongzhen: So he really wanted to steal my noodles!
But since it is the rule, the remaining half bowl can only be given to him, as long as he doesn't mind.
When Jiang Yu saw the bowl of noodles being handed to him, he suddenly felt a burning sensation under his ears, and the blush quickly spread from his ears to his neck and cheeks.
He was born with fair skin and kept himself clean, which made the crimson color even more dazzling, turning him into a cooked shrimp at a speed visible to the naked eye.
So handsome that it's breathtaking, so cute that it's a bit unfair.
Rongzhen felt relieved when she saw this, but she also became curious. She pushed the bowl and chopsticks into his hands, moved closer to him and asked, "What's wrong with you? Are you shy?"
Jiang Yu didn't say anything. He took the bowl she had used, used the chopsticks she had used, and with a red face, buried his head and ate up the remaining noodles in three or two mouthfuls. In the end, he didn't even leave any soup.
After finishing the meal, he left her a message: "I have to go downstairs to entertain the guests. You wait for me here obediently."
Then he hurried out, taking the dishes and chopsticks with him before leaving.
When Rongzhen heard his message, her mood, which had just improved, fell again.
Waiting for you? Waiting for you to come back so I can run away from home, leaving behind a promise that will never be fulfilled?
Haha, whoever waits is a fool!
Rongzhen didn't wait, she tidied up the peanuts and lotus seeds on the bed, lay down and dozed off immediately.
I don't know when the noise outside stopped. The night gradually deepened, and the moonlight slowly crept in from the windowsill, illuminating the new house with red double happiness candles lit.
Before going to bed, Rongzhen only turned off the lights and did not touch the candles.
Now it is burning brightly in the moonlight, making the red room look quite artistic.
I have to say, it really does have the atmosphere of a wedding night.
Unfortunately, the bride did not appreciate this and had no thoughts in this regard.
She lay there half asleep and half awake until late at night, when she was awakened by Jiang Yu who had finally come upstairs after seeing off the guests.
He shook her gently, and his voice was as gentle as the spring breeze, calling her softly and softly, "Xizhen, Xizhen, wake up quickly. I want to tell you something."
Hearing these words, Rong Zhen's sleepiness disappeared instantly. He opened his eyes and felt clear-headed, as if he had never fallen asleep.
What was supposed to come finally came. At this moment, all the previous chaotic thoughts and worries faded away, leaving only the calmness of waiting for him to make that bullshit promise.
She was considering whether to slap him in the face after he finished speaking.
Otherwise, it would be hard to express your good intentions!
