Chapter 178 Happy and Funeral Events
"Are you eating dog food again?" Xu gritted her teeth.
Lu Chaochao's eyes rolled around and his two chubby hands were hidden behind his back.
He stammered, "How can it be considered stealing if it's your own dog?"
Xu looked at her for a long time and couldn't say a word.
I'm so angry.
"Can you give the chicken leg back?" Lu Chaochao advised cautiously.
Xu's eyes went dark. If she had known that she would eat so much, she would not have given her the chicken leg! !
[If mother won’t give it to me, I’ll go find Uncle Rong!] 】
Mrs. Xu waved her hands helplessly: "Take her to the courtyard to digest the food first, and pick the smallest chicken leg for her."
[When I grow up, I want to raise chickens all over the world! 】Lu Chaochao pouted and walked away with a look of grievance on her face.
Before going to bed, Lu Chaochao finally ate the chicken leg.
"Zhuifeng, here's the chicken bone for you."
"Is Wo good to you?" Lu Chaochao touched the dog's head.
"Then you have to share some of my meat next time."
Zhuifeng rolled his eyes when he heard this.
After Lu Chaochao fell asleep, Dengzhi silently gave Zhuifeng some extra food: "Thank you for your hard work in being her pet."
It is really a sin to meet a dog owner who steals dog food.
Early the next morning.
Lu Chaochao was awakened by the sound of knocking.
"What's outside?" Lu Chaochao asked curiously with his messy hair.
"The Marquis' Mansion is marrying a daughter-in-law. Oh, I was wrong, it's not called the Marquis' Mansion now." Yu Shu smiled happily, it was such a happy event.
"The hereditary title of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion is gone. It is said that the old lady used your birth date to borrow your life, which angered His Majesty and made His Majesty strip you of your title."
"The old lady fainted from crying yesterday."
"Oh, Gu Ling was imprisoned, and Lu Wanyi's body was carried back to her parents' home. She is still lying in state at the mansion."
"Jiang Yunjin and Lu Jinghuai are getting married today. This is really unlucky."
"So should we hang red silk or white banners?" Yuqin asked.
"Who knows?"
"Hurry up and wash up, I want to go to the hospital." Lu Chaochao was very anxious. How could she not be involved in such gossip?
Lu Chaochao quickly finished her breakfast and went out with Zhuifeng.
Zhuifeng had a dog leash around his neck and Lu Chaochao was holding the dog.
"Come on, I'll take you out for a walk." Lu Chaochao smiled.
The dog leash fell off at some point, and Zhuifeng had to bite the leash himself, for fear of losing his master.
The sound of banging was extremely lively, and red confetti was scattered all over the ground.
The wedding procession had to go around the city. Lu Jinghuai happened to have finished the wedding procession and was now taking the bride in the bridal sedan around the city.
The matchmaker scattered candies as she walked, attracting countless people on the street to watch. The children picked up the candies and cheered.
No makeup could cover up Lu Jinghuai's pale complexion. He was sweating profusely while riding on his horse.
His brows furrowed unconsciously, and the knuckles that were gripping the reins turned slightly white.
"The groom's riding posture is weird, as if there are needles on his butt." Someone joked.
He seemed afraid to use any force and his face looked extremely painful.
Jiang Yunjin in the sedan chair felt a little annoyed.
During this period, the relationship between the Jiang family and the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery had become extremely strained.
Because of Lu Jinghuai, the Jiang family lost tens of thousands of taels in the bet.
Because Lu Yanshu won the title of Jieyuan, the two elders of the Jiang family felt very regretful. And Lu Jinghuai seemed a little cold towards her.
The breeze lifted the curtain, and through the thin red gauze, she saw a man in white standing by the street, his figure as tall as a green bamboo.
The man had cheeks as white as jade, his brows were smiling, and there was a hint of indifference in his expression.
People crowded around him, surrounded him, and asked him for advice, but he did not show any arrogance at all.
Jiang Yunjin was stunned.
When Lu Yanshu raised his eyes, he saw Jiang Yunjin lifting the red veil inside the sedan chair and looking at him.
The moment their eyes met, Jiang Yunjin's pupils suddenly shrank.
It feels like being burned.
Lu Yanshu looked calm and indifferent. His classmate beside him asked, "Is that the girl from the Jiang family? Your former fiancée?"
"She is so blind that she abandoned you and chose Lu Jinghuai. You saved her life, but she broke off the engagement and married her mistress. She is so heartless."
"It's really karma. She valued Lu Jinghuai's talent, but you passed the Liyuan exam."
"Lu Jinghuai went through so much trouble to squeeze you out of the Marquis' Mansion, but in the end you lost your title. This is really retribution." Several classmates couldn't help but smile in contempt, and they all spoke with pleasure.
Lu Yanshu's eyes were calm: "Maybe, it's true love."
“If it’s true love, then we must lock it together for a lifetime and never separate.” There was a gleam in the boy’s eyes.
"When you get the top three places in the imperial examination, I'm afraid Lord Lu will regret it so much. No, no, no, there is also Miss Jiang..." Several people looked at each other and laughed.
At this moment, Jiang Yunjin was also feeling flustered.
The moment their eyes met, she actually avoided him as if escaping, and even dared not to look Lu Yanshu in the eye.
She remembered vaguely.
When he was young, Lu Yanshu strictly abided by the rules and was serious like a little adult.
Although he is young, he is always the most dazzling one in the crowd.
Whenever his father mentioned him, he always praised him.
Such a rule-abiding person dismissed the servants and said to her secretly: Since you are engaged to me, I will treat you well, don't be afraid.
A sincere heart is revealed.
The boy had been in a wheelchair for ten years to save her, which made her feel full of guilt. She was afraid of seeing Lu Yanshu and afraid of being scolded.
But now, the boy stood up again.
He is even more dazzling than he was back then.
He won the first place in the imperial examination and had a great chance of even winning the third place, bringing honor to his family.
Jiang Yunjin, it would be a lie to say I wasn't sad.
"Get off the sedan." With the matchmaker's voice, the sedan stopped.
After waiting for a long time, Jiang Yunjin still didn't see Lu Jinghuai come to lift the sedan chair.
"Why doesn't my son-in-law get off the horse yet?" The maid who came with the dowry was a little anxious.
Lu Jinghuai's face was as pale as paper, and he felt a stinging pain even when he breathed.
"Please get off the horse, groom..." the matchmaker shouted.
After shouting three times, Lu Jinghuai remained silent.
Lu Jinghuai glanced at the servant, and the servant hurried forward to help him off the horse.
He raised his leg: "Hiss..."
Lu Jinghuai took a breath.
As soon as he got off the horse, the servant looked slightly surprised and said, "Young master, are you bleeding?" He saw spots of scarlet on the horse's back.
Lu Jinghuai's face suddenly turned red and he looked panicked.
She looked down and saw that she was wearing a bright red wedding gown and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Take the horse away and don't alarm others." He glanced at the servant.
The servant responded in a low voice.
Lu Jinghuai's fingertips were pale as he opened the curtain and helped Jiang Yunjin up.
The matchmaker smiled and said, "Help the newlyweds cross the fire basin."
"The bride crosses the fire, bringing wealth and children."
"Respect your parents-in-law and keep the family harmonious forever. The bride steps over the fire basin, and the husband and wife follow each other and will be of one mind forever." The matchmaker sang loudly.
Everyone in the Marquis's Mansion was forcing themselves to smile, and the maids were distributing wedding candies at the door.
Jiang Yunjin stepped over the brazier, and the matchmaker rushed out spouting auspicious words as if they were free.
The Marquis's Mansion gave a lot of reward money.
Jiang Yunjin was holding the red silk, and at the other end of the red silk was holding Lu Jinghuai.
She walked towards the mansion step by step.
Suddenly...
The dowry maid beside her cried out in fear.
Miss Jiang's heart tightened, and she heard the maidservant whispering in her ear: "Miss..."
"I just saw that they actually placed Lu Wanyi's coffin in the next room."
"The sister-in-law who died suddenly was sent back to her parents' home!"
"Today is the young lady's wedding!"
"What on earth is my son-in-law doing?! Aren't you afraid of bad luck by leaving the corpse of a person who died suddenly and unjustly in the mansion?" Just as she glanced at him, a servant happened to open the door, and the maid who came with the dowry was so frightened that her face changed drastically.
Holding a wedding in the main hall while storing corpses next door is outrageous!
Jiang Yunjin felt uneasy.
She broke off the engagement with Lu Yanshu and married Lu Jinghuai. Does she really not regret it?
