Chapter 80 Wedding Ceremony
The old lady was wearing a brand new bluestone green jacket with bat pattern embroidered on it. She sat at the head of the table, with an unconcealable smile in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.
The wrinkles on her face were all wrinkled into a ball. She looked at Xiao Yunzhan in a bright red wedding dress with such satisfaction. She took the tea handed to her by Xiao Yunzhan and hurriedly gave him a purse.
Xu and Song Hongzhi naturally did not dare to be arrogant. They said some polite words respectfully and took the tea from Xiao Yunzhan without any delay.
After the elders had drunk the groom's tea, Mrs. Li led Song Yuning, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes and covered with a veil, slowly into the main hall and asked her to stand next to Xiao Yunzhan.
Song Hongzhi said a few more words, and then the two of them said goodbye to their parents and elders and turned to leave.
Song Yuning followed Xiao Yunzhan and walked out the door step by step, not knowing what to feel.
Ever since she returned to the Song Mansion, not a single day had passed when she didn't want to leave this den of tigers and wolves. Now that she was really leaving, she felt a lot of other emotions in her heart.
After entering Prince Xuan’s mansion, I didn’t know what the situation would be like.
The Song Mansion was in the east of the city, while Prince Xuan's Mansion was in the west. Song Yuning was swaying in the sedan chair, and it took almost an hour to reach Prince Xuan's Mansion.
Song Yuning yawned in the carriage, thinking to herself that no wonder Xiao Yunzhan came so early to pick up the bride. If he had come later, the auspicious time would have passed, and she would still be rocking in the sedan chair.
After she got off the sedan chair, someone put a big red silk cloth in her hand. Song Yuning was led forward. After walking for a long time, she finally crossed the threshold and arrived at the main hall.
After the two of them stood still, Song Yuning heard a chorus of voices: "Bow to Heaven and Earth!"
Song Yuning could not see anything in front of her eyes, only a bright red area. She bowed again and again, and was finally sent to the bridal chamber with a sentence. Song Yuning breathed a sigh of relief.
If she continued to bow, she would have fainted. She didn't know who came over and supported her, carrying her to the bridal chamber. After an unknown amount of time, Song Yuning was forced to sit down beside the bed.
There seemed to be many people in the room, and judging from their voices, most of them were women. There were also a few familiar voices. Before Song Yuning could hear who it was, Nanny Xi next to her started asking Xiao Yunzhan to lift the veil.
After the veil was lifted, Song Yuning slowly raised her head, and her eyes happened to meet Xiao Yunzhan's.
This glance allowed her to clearly catch the flash of surprise in Xiao Yunzhan's eyes, and then Xiao Yunzhan stared at her as if he was stupid.
Song Yuning felt a little embarrassed by his gaze. A barely perceptible shyness appeared on her face and she lowered her head slightly.
Most of the other people in the bridal chamber came over just to see Song Yuning's true face.
Look at what this concubine's daughter looks like. She was able to surpass them and marry the seventh prince to become Princess Xuan.
When they saw Song Yuning, they couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, and many women looked at her with a little jealousy in their eyes.
The woman in front of him was wearing a bright red wedding dress, which made her skin look as white as snow and as delicate as fat.
Beneath those willow-shaped eyebrows were a pair of clear and bright almond-shaped eyes, which made people feel attracted to them at first sight.
Song Yuning is very beautiful, but her beauty is not aggressive. Her whole body exudes a soft glow, like a piece of warm and beautiful jade.
"Princess Xuan is so beautiful." It was Bai Miao who spoke. Seeing Song Yuning looking at her, she even blinked at Song Yuning.
"Indeed, my sister-in-law is so beautiful. This is the first time I have seen such a beautiful person." This time it was Xiao Yue who spoke up for justice, and her eyes were indeed full of amazement.
The room was filled with ladies and young ladies surrounded by red and green jewels, as well as a few friends of Xiao Yunzhan who came to join in the fun. They all chatted and laughed for a while, and then the two of them began to drink the wedding wine.
Leaning closer, Xiao Yunzhan could smell the fragrance from Song Yuning's body. The tips of his ears suddenly turned red, but his face remained calm.
As soon as the wine glass was put down, Xiao Yunzhan was pulled out to toast. The women in the room didn't want to stay any longer, so they all followed him out.
After everyone left, only Song Yuning and four maids were left in the room. Song Yuning hurriedly called people over and took off the phoenix crown for her first.
This phoenix crown was really too heavy. After holding it for most of the day, Song Yuning felt pain in his scalp.
The four people swiftly helped Song Yuning take off the phoenix crown, then brought hot water, wiped off the powder on her face, and helped her change into casual clothes. Only then did Song Yuning feel relaxed.
Just as everyone finished their work, they heard someone knocking on the door. Yue Jian went to open it and saw two maids holding a tray with some of Song Yuning's favorite dishes on it.
"Greetings to the princess. This has been specially sent by the prince. Please enjoy your meal."
Song Yuning let the two people in and looked at them carefully. They were both about eighteen or nineteen years old, with pretty faces, and were polite in their actions and words. They were probably palace maids from the palace.
Ningshuang and Yuejian immediately took the plates. Song Yuning asked, "What are your names?"
"Your servant Lu Xue greets the princess."
"Your servant Hanfang greets the princess."
Song Yuning nodded, and without asking any more questions, he let the two go down first. There was no need to rush, and there would be plenty of time to get to know them in the future.
Now, Song Yuning just wanted to eat something good and then have a quick rest. As for other things, she didn't want to think about it yet, because she would soon face a bigger problem, which was the wedding night.
After having a somewhat uneasy meal, Song Yuning asked everyone to leave. She sat alone on the bed, waiting for Xiao Yunzhan to come back.
Unexpectedly, Ningshuang and Yuejian came back just after they went out, and brought back the person Song Yuning had been thinking about, Mrs. Wei.
"Mom! Why are you here!" Song Yuning stood up immediately and asked happily.
Madam Wei's eyes were still red, showing that she had just cried. She smiled and said, "I have been here the whole time. The prince sent someone to invite me here early in the morning. When you were worshiping heaven and earth just now, I was by the side and watched you and Prince Xuan get married.
Ning'er, seeing you get married with my own eyes, I have no regrets in this life." Madam Wei raised her hand and stroked Song Yuning's face.
Song Yuning also smiled and hugged Madam Wei tightly, "How can I not have regrets? You haven't seen my child yet, and you said you would show me the child. You can't break your promise."
The mother and daughter talked for a long time until someone outside urged them to leave. Mrs. Wei said goodbye. When she left, her face was flushed and she stuttered a little, but she still told Song Yuning what to do in the wedding night.
"You are still young. If you can't bear it, just tell me. Don't endure it. Don't hurt your body, okay?" After saying this, Mrs. Wei left uncomfortably.
Song Yuning looked at her back, feeling a bit amused and helpless, but the education in this area in ancient times was so poor.
