When Xiao Sheng brought Xia Deqing's family to the Li family, Li Ruiheng and Li Ruijin had gone to pick up the bride and had not yet returned.
Several officials who had come with Xia Deqing also came to join in the fun.
Everyone wanted to see what the similarities and differences were between the wedding customs in the capital and those in the Crescent Province.
Li Ruiqi and Li Ruiyue were not at home, so the two were assigned tasks.
Li Ruiqi went to the Hou family with Li Ruiheng, while Li Ruiyue went to the Wang family with Li Ruijin.
Mr. and Mrs. Li Ruizhang were busy taking care of everything.
Li Ting, Xu Ningyou, and Xu Yushan and his wife have now become hands-off managers.
Watching Li Ruizhang and his wife take care of things for their two younger brothers.
Li Xingran stood at the door waiting for her two sisters-in-law to come in.
When Xia Qinyin got off the carriage, Li Xingran was standing at the door.
The sharp-eyed Li Xingran spotted Xia Qinyin.
"Qinyin, you're here!" Li Xingran greeted her from afar.
"Xingran, Xingran, it's been so long! I miss you so much!" Xia Qinyin has become more and more lively in recent years.
Xia Qinyin ran towards Li Xingran.
Even though Xia Qinyin has grown into a young woman, she still wants to be close to Li Xingran.
A furry thing jumped off the carriage.
When Li Xingran saw the black and white ball following behind Xia Qinyin, her eyes lit up!
The people who were waiting to see the Li family's wedding reacted with a range of emotions when they saw this adorable wild animal: some were afraid, some were amazed, and some were full of admiration.
"Qinyin, you are so kind to bring the giant panda along."
"Bamboo, is there enough bamboo for it to eat? There's no bamboo like that in the capital, what should we do?" Li Xingran thought of this serious problem.
Li Xingran shouted excitedly.
When the people heard this, they realized that the little ball of dough was called a giant panda.
However, the people still didn't understand.
Is this a bear or a cat?
"Don't worry, if I dare to bring it out, I definitely won't let it go hungry."
Seeing that the increasingly beautiful girl couldn't resist the giant panda, Xiao Sheng became even more determined to catch one and give it to her.
Xia Deqing looked at Li Xingran and thought that this girl was becoming more and more outstanding.
Her own daughter, standing beside her, looked utterly undignified.
It should be noted that Xia Qinyin is one of the most beautiful and courageous people in New Moon Province.
But in front of Li Xingran, he was just a dim and lackluster star.
Fortunately, he did not encourage his daughter's infatuation with the emperor.
His own daughter is smart and won't put all her eggs in one basket.
Seeing how close his daughter and Li Xingran were, Xia Deqing felt relieved.
Some people can only be friends, not enemies, otherwise you will be doomed.
He came here for three reasons: first, to show his loyalty; second, to find a marriage partner for Xia Qinyin; and third, to bring more advanced technology back to Xinyue Province.
Li Ting welcomed Xiao Sheng and Xia Deqing into the courtyard and led them to the main hall to wait.
Xia Qinyin stayed at the door, waiting for the bride with Li Xingran.
The news that a girl accompanying the emperor brought a giant panda to congratulate him on his marriage spread like wildfire throughout the capital.
Li Ruiqi was still at the Hou family's residence. He had just greeted his sister-in-law and was about to leave when he overheard the Hou family's servants gossiping.
"Giant panda? Second brother, is it the black and white wild beast that my sister mentioned encountering in Crescent Province before?"
Li Ruiqi asked Li Ruiheng.
"My sister seems to have mentioned it briefly. She also said that there are national treasures here, but unfortunately we don't have bamboo in the capital, so they can't be grown."
"Otherwise, my sister would probably have gone to catch it herself already."
"Second brother, hurry, I want to go back and see!"
"What's the rush? You'll see it eventually."
"Want one? If you want one, your second brother will catch one for you another day."
"No way, my sister said it's a national treasure, a rare animal. Let it stay in the wild! I don't want to keep wild animals as pets."
"I just wanted to see just how cute I am that my sister likes me so much."
"It can't possibly be cuter than our little nephew, can it?"
Li Ruizhang's son is already six months old.
That was the apple of the whole family's eye.
The kids are easy to take care of.
He smiles at everyone he meets.
After picking up the bride, at the auspicious hour of You (5-7 PM), the wedding processions from both families set off in a grand procession.
The procession takes about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn to walk the route.
The brides of Lai Shui Heng and Lai Shui Jin entered the door one after another in order of seniority.
When Li Xingran saw her two older brothers pick up their sister-in-law and bring her home, she grabbed Xia Qinyin's hand and ran into the main hall.
The first thing Li Ruiqi saw when she entered the room was the girl next to her sister who looked like bamboo.
Aloof and upright.
Behind her are giant pandas.
When Li Ruiqi saw the giant panda, he thought to himself, "This world is so big, there are such cute wild animals."
Moreover, the wild beast followed the girl, as if it trusted her a lot.
Xia Qinyin also noticed that a gaze was moving back and forth between her and the giant panda.
Xia Qinyin then glared at Li Ruiqi.
It would have been better if he hadn't glared at her; once he did, he was completely engulfed.
Xia Qinyin felt as if her heart no longer belonged to her.
How can there be such a handsome man?
He had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, a robust build, and wheat-colored skin, the same color as the first crop of wheat to grow on the land of Crescent Province.
It looks very healthy.
Li Xingran turned around to call out to Xia Qinyin, but realized something was wrong.
Li Xingran followed Xia Qinyin's gaze.
Good heavens, isn't that Fourth Brother?
Haha, look at this, another sister-in-law is coming.
Li Xingran didn't urge Xia Qinyin, letting them exchange glances for a while longer.
