Chapter 8 Wedding Night
Su Wenzhen's slightly childish yet unusually flirtatious "wife" sent goosebumps down Ye Wan's spine. Before she could react, she discovered that her veil was gone.
"Oh dear, my new son-in-law!" The matchmaker exclaimed anxiously, snatching the red veil from Su Wenzhen's hands. "That's not how you lift the veil!"
"I don't care!" Su Wenzhen glared at the matchmaker. "I'll reveal it however I want." Then he looked at Ye Wanning pitifully with his big, watery eyes. "Anyway, my wife won't blame me, right? My wife?"
Ye Wanning rolled her eyes and ignored him.
Receiving no response from Ye Wanning, Su Wenzhen seemed somewhat angry. He turned his gaze to the matchmaker and said angrily, "Get out of here! I'm going to consummate my marriage with my wife!"
Cave... cave... bridal chamber?
When Su Wenzhen said this, everyone in the room was stunned. Ye Wanning blushed. How could this idiot even know about the wedding night? Who was the one who taught him this?
The matchmaker paused for a moment upon hearing this, then chuckled and said, "Oh dear, does the new groom know what the bridal chamber means? It's..."
Before she could finish speaking, Su Wenzhen chimed in, "Of course, the wedding night means that my wife will have many, many children with me, so I won't have to worry about having no one to play with in the future!"
"Giving birth to... many children..." Ye Wanning was about to burst into tears. Did fools really not care about their reputation? She was losing all face!
Being a woman, even though the Prince of Jin was a fool, the matchmaker still felt a little embarrassed after saying those words. She looked at Su Wenzhen in surprise, then at the bride sitting on the bed, and after saying a few words of congratulations, she withdrew.
Su Wenzhen's words were astonishing. Apart from Cui'er and Granny Sun, no one else remained in the room. Cui'er blushed, clearly shocked by Su Wenzhen's words, and hadn't recovered yet. "Miss, let me help you with your washing and dressing."
Ye Wanning's face flushed red and then turned pale. She had really lost face today. She glared at Su Wenzhen, but found that he still had a pitiful and innocent look in his eyes. Not wanting to lash out, she could only say to Cui'er, "No need. You can leave the things here and go down with Granny Sun. I need to talk to the Prince."
Hearing this, Cui'er was startled. Her young mistress's temperament was unpredictable, and lately she had been using violence to solve problems. Just now, Prince Jin's words had embarrassed her, and her mistress was in a hurry. Surely she wouldn't have sent them away to vent her anger on the prince, would she? She turned to look at Granny Sun and saw Granny Sun's embarrassed expression. She guessed that Granny Sun thought the same thing.
Seeing that Cui'er hadn't moved, Ye Wanning turned around and saw that both of them looked unwell. She was puzzled, but then she seemed to remember something and frowned: "What are you thinking about? This is the Prince's mansion, not the Prime Minister's residence. You need to know some rules!"
Ye Wanning's words had a hidden meaning, which reassured Granny Sun and Cui'er. They bowed and withdrew.
"Wife." Seeing that no one was in the room, Su Wenzhen looked at Ye Wanning with innocent eyes.
"Hmm?" Ye Wanning removed her makeup and sat down at the table to start eating when Su Wenzhen suddenly barged in. She hadn't finished eating yet.
Su Wenzhen grinned and said, "When are we going to consummate our marriage?"
"Cough cough cough." Hearing Su Wenzhen's words, Ye Wanning choked on the food in her mouth before she could swallow it. After a while, she recovered and looked at Su Wenzhen suspiciously, "You...you said what?"
"It's the wedding night!" Su Wenzhen said with a silly grin.
Do you know what a wedding night is?
"It means we'll have a baby together..."
"Stop! Stop! Stop!" Ye Wanning frowned. This idiot only knew this one phrase. She thought for a moment and then said, "Wenzhen, who taught you to say that?"
"The housekeeper," Su Wenzhen naively betrayed the housekeeper.
"Okay." Ye Wanning narrowed her eyes. Butler? You just wait. She smiled again and said, "Then Wenzhen, did they teach you what a wedding night is like?"
Su Wenzhen blinked. "The steward said that as long as I tell him about the wedding night and childbirth, my wife will teach me how to do it."
Ye Wanning blushed. Teach him! How! He! Should! Do! It!
"My wife, my wife, when are we going to consummate our marriage?" Su Wenzhen blinked at Ye Wanning.
"I..." Ye Wanning was somewhat helpless. Who said this guy was an idiot? Could an idiot be this smart? She glanced at the wine glass on the table and suddenly thought of something. "Wenzhen, do you want to consummate the marriage?"
Seeing Ye Wanning's cunning eyes, Su Wenzhen nodded with a hint of fear.
Ye Wanning picked up a wine glass from the table and filled it with wine. "We have to drink wine before the wedding night, you know."
Su Wenzhen was taken aback for a moment, but quickly returned to his silly look. It seems that this third young lady of the Prime Minister's mansion is not very smart after all.
Ye Wanning watched as Su Wenzhen accepted the wine glass, then smiled slyly. "You still want to consummate the marriage? No way! You'll get yourself drunk!"
Su Wenzhen downed his glass in one gulp, put it down, and looked at Ye Wanning expectantly, "Wife, now that we've finished our wine, shall we consummate our marriage?"
Ye Wanning smiled and said, "Wait a minute, Wenzhen, I have a question for you."
"Huh?" Su Wenzhen looked at her in confusion. What was this woman up to now? "What is it, my wife?"
"Tell me," Ye Wanning said, narrowing her eyes, "Do you want to break up with me?"
Su Wenzhen waved her hand nervously, "Of course I don't want to!"
"See? I knew it." Ye Wanning pouted. "But the elders all say that the more wine you drink on your wedding night, the longer the couple will stay together. One cup represents one year, and you only drank one cup..."
"I don't want to stay with my wife for only a year!" Su Wenzhen looked nervous, but in reality, he was somewhat helpless. He had never wanted to return to his normal identity as much as he did at this moment, but he could only pretend to be a fool and happily drink the wine she poured for him.
Ye Wanning smiled with satisfaction. She knew he would say that. "Good boy, actually, I don't want to be separated from Wenzhen either, but I can't drink alcohol. So Wenzhen will have to suffer today."
"Okay!" Although he appeared cheerful on the surface, Su Wenzhen was so angry that he wanted to curse. He wondered how much alcohol this woman would force him to drink.
Ye Wanning smiled and blinked a few times, then ruthlessly refilled Su Wenzhen's glass of wine again and again.
Unable to resist, and fearing that he would expose his secret if he got truly drunk, Su Wenzhen had no choice but to pretend to be drunk after a few drinks. "My wife, my wife, why is my head so dizzy?"
Ye Wanning smiled and said, "It's nothing, Wenzhen is just drunk."
"What do you mean by 'drunk'?" Su Wenzhen looked at Ye Wanning blankly. "Wife, wife, how come there are two wives? Oh, there are three... Oh, so many wives... How wonderful! I'll have so many wives to play with from now on!"
"Alright, alright." Ye Wanning smiled and patted Su Wenzhen's head. "Oh, this silly boy is so cute. Wenzhen, shall we go to sleep?"
"But my wife, the bridal chamber..."
Ye Wanning blushed. What time is it for a wedding night! But seeing Su Wenzhen's clueless look, Ye Wanning sighed. She was really defeated by him. "Alright, let's go to the wedding night."
On the roof, seeing that the lights inside were off, Jiang Hai knew that the prince and princess had already gone to rest. He was about to leave when he suddenly noticed a dark figure passing by the window outside. Jiang Hai was startled and exclaimed, "Who's there!"
