Sure enough, people feel refreshed when happy things happen.
Not to mention that in just a few days, Wu Weian had passed the imperial examination and was about to have his wedding night.
The people who came to watch the couple's wedding expressed their feelings.
Ji Yunxi had always been the talk of the town. Ever since Wu Wei'an's success as a top scholar, his fame had spread beyond the ranks of scholars to the common people. Everyone used Wu Wei'an as a role model for their children.
Therefore, early this morning, many ordinary people came to Xuanrenfang and waited outside the gates of the Ji and Wu families.
Many of them come here specifically with their children.
Seeing Wu Wei'an come out, the mother next to him hurriedly said to her child, "Look, look! That's Master Wu! He studies so hard. In the middle of winter, he studies from morning till night, only sleeping for half an hour. Even with his hands frozen, he's still reading! What about you? You can't even sit still for half an hour!"
The father on the other side also painted a rosy picture for his child: "Master Wu has made great progress. The wife he married is the daughter of a marquis. Her family is rich and she is also beautiful! So, Erhu, listen to your father and study hard! You can also marry a beautiful wife in the future!"
Wu Weining, who was holding the horse outside and waiting for Wu Weian to come out, couldn't help but hear a few words.
His face turned slightly red when he heard this and he lowered his head in embarrassment.
To be honest, his elder brother is not that hardworking.
Wu Weian's face was full of smiles. He bowed to everyone, walked towards his second brother, and took the reins of the horse.
This was the only horse in the mansion, a bit skinny, with a large, festive red flower tied to its chest. The flower had been cut and made by the round-faced steward of the house himself, because buying one on the street would have cost money. The young master said that after getting married, one should be frugal and manage the household well, so one should not buy anything if one can avoid it.
Wu Weian jumped on his horse and led the wedding procession behind him, heading towards the Ji family.
The horse ran a few steps, went around an intersection, and then ran a few more steps before stopping in front of Ji's mansion.
Ji Mingyan, also dressed in a bright red, stood on tiptoe at the door, looking forward to seeing Wu Weian. When he saw Wu Weian, his eyes lit up and he rushed back into the house, shouting, "Brother-in-law is here! Third sister, brother-in-law is here!!"
Ji Yunxi was sitting in front of the dressing mirror, with Ji Mingxi and Ji Mingshuang standing beside her.
Ji Mingxi looked at his sister, feeling reluctant to leave: "Yun Niang, you must take good care of yourself in the Wu family in the future. If you have nothing to do, remember to come home more often."
Ji Yunxi raised her eyes and opened her red lips: "The Wu family is next door."
Ji Mingxi paused.
After his brother-in-law bought a new house, Ji Mingxi personally visited it. It was indeed very close, just a few steps away. The distance between him and Wu's house was actually only a few steps away from Yunniang's yard.
"That's right." Ji Mingxi put his hands behind his back, "Then you go."
The red veil was in Ji Ming's hands. Ji Yunxi looked at him. Although she didn't say anything, Ji Mingshuang knew that she was urging him to cover her with the red veil.
Since entering the Hanlin Academy, Ji Mingshuang's personality has become much calmer.
In fact, it was mainly because he was tired. The Grand Secretary who was taking care of him was a good friend who was always worried about Ji Mingxi, so he was very fond of his friend's younger brother, the Grand Secretary.
The way to cherish him is to force Ji Mingshuang to learn this and that.
Ji Mingshuang walked over with the veil in hand, wanting to say a lot, but in the end he just said, "I don't think you will suffer any loss."
Ji Yunxi smiled at Seventh Brother: "Of course, don't worry."
Ji Mingshuang also raised his lips and gently covered his sister with a red veil.
Ji Mingxi felt a little sad for a moment. He thought, how great it would be if his father and mother saw this scene?
Moreover, my second brother is not here now. My fifth brother said he was on his way back, but he has not been seen yet.
But this sourness did not last long and was diluted when Ji Mingyan rushed in.
Ji Mingyan held a pot in his hand and said mysteriously, "My brother-in-law is here, and we can't let him take my third sister away easily. So I made a pot of soup last night!"
Ji Mingshuang: "..."
Suddenly, he felt some sympathy for his brother-in-law.
In the end, Wu Weian drank the can of soup in front of everyone.
The soup is sour, sweet, bitter and spicy. I don’t know what Ji Mingyan added to it.
Wu Weian has no problem with other flavors, but he can't stand sour ones.
No sour taste at all.
So after taking a gulp, he felt nauseous several times, but he forced himself to suppress it and not vomit.
After all, he was wearing new clothes today, made of such fine material, and it was his first time wearing them. What if he vomited and got them dirty?
Wu Weian returned the soup pot to Ji Mingyan and took Ji Yunxi from Ji Mingxi.
The knuckles are as white as jade and feel better than cloud-like silk.
Silk is a dead material after all, but this woman's hands were gentler than silk, even more so than silk itself.
He paused slightly.
Ji Yunxi was wearing a red veil, so she couldn't see his face clearly, but she could see the two people holding hands below.
Wu Weian has beautiful fingers, Ji Yunxi knew it from the first time she saw him.
His fingers were slender, like bamboo joints, but a little rough to the touch. Besides holding a pen, he probably also handled a knife or sword quite often.
Wu Weian came back to his senses, and his five fingers lightly slipped between Ji Yunxi's fingers. He interlocked their fingers and led her into the sedan chair.
During the process, he got very close to her and whispered, "Do you have any candy?"
Ji Yunxi replied coldly: "No."
Chapter 38: The Strange Wedding Night
Most of the guests were invited by the Ji family, and Wu Weian didn't invite anyone at all. Later, Wu Qi personally found Ji Yunxi and added a few adults he was on good terms with.
Most of the guests attending the banquet were either wealthy or noble; even the Crown Prince came. The Emperor also sent a eunuch to deliver gifts.
After Ji Yunxi and Wu Weian had their wedding ceremony, they were sent to the bridal chamber, and Wu Weian was left behind to accompany the guests.
As soon as she stepped into the new house, Ji Yunxi lifted her red veil.
The nanny was startled and said hurriedly: "Madam, you absolutely cannot do this! This——"
Ji Yunxi glanced at the nanny.
