I once had someone I liked.
Since attending the banquet at the palace last time, Chen Sheng felt drunk and confused, and his mind was not clear at all.
She kept feeling like she heard the voice of the faceless person from her dream. It sounded like, "Me too?"
Chen Sheng consciously buried it in his heart.
A month later, there was only one day left before Chen Sheng's wedding.
“Miss, you should prepare properly today, instead of just sitting in your room daydreaming.”
Li Mo walked in with the wedding dress, ready to let Chen Sheng try it on.
"Alas, one should enjoy life to the fullest when things are going well, lest one's golden goblet be left empty before the moon; Heaven has endowed me with talents that will surely be put to use, and though a thousand pieces of gold may be spent, they will return again. Why have I not reaped any good fortune, but instead been burdened with a mountain of blame?"
Chen Sheng sat in front of the dressing mirror, looking at her once beautiful face now ruined by her own actions, and felt a pang of melancholy again. "Li Mo, if I went to sell pots, I could at least make a fortune, and then pay back the money I owed Xu Nuo. Wouldn't I be... at least mentally independent?"
A few days ago, while out having fun, I ran into the "white moonlight" (my ideal man) and the female lead on a date; they were practically headed to the woods. The moment the female lead saw her, ugh! She glared at her, which shows the "white moonlight" had been badmouthing her behind her back, maybe even writing a whole "On Blessings for Green Tea" and spreading it everywhere… Oh, she's not a green tea, she likes pure white lotuses.
"Miss wants to sell cooking pots and stoves? Speaking of which, Miss does own a pot-making shop. You can buy and sell them to make money." Li Mo said thoughtfully, "It's in the south of the city."
"Li Mo! Thanks to you... for reminding me! I now realize the advantage of having iron while others have mines! Hahaha, hahaha—"
Chen Sheng dreamed of becoming the richest person in the world by selling iron pots, since she was currently short of money.
Li Mo: "Miss, the Fourth Prince has already made his choice and sent over the other half of the wedding dress. Please try it on quickly."
Chen Sheng took the wedding dress and examined it carefully.
This dress perfectly suits Bai Yueguang's taste—a festive bright red with a light green lining and a white trim! Turn it inside out, and it becomes another dress!
Hehehe, how interesting, she can't say anything good about it...
Chen Sheng: "Alright, alright, I got it. Li Mo, go and get me the list of wedding guests."
Li Mo: "Yes, Miss."
Chen Sheng carefully looked at the names on the list, and when she found the name she was looking for, she couldn't contain her excitement!
Finally, finally, she finally found a man who liked "her" in the original story!!!
"Li Mo, you go ahead and arrange the wedding banquet for tomorrow. Don't worry about me, I can handle it myself."
Chen Sheng said to Li Mo, while searching for paper and pen to copy down the original text in his mind.
The original owner had many best friends, and she couldn't afford to forget them later. If she revealed any flaws, her persona would collapse.
After bowing, Li Mo withdrew and thoughtfully closed the door behind him.
Time flies, and before we knew it, it was time to get married.
Chen Sheng was pulled out of bed early in the morning (it was already eight o'clock), dressed, washed, and made up. She was manipulated by the servants like a puppet, and finally rode a horse to welcome her bride.
To be honest, this was the first time Chen Sheng had ridden a horse for so long, and he was overjoyed.
She had the privilege of visiting the horse farm before, and even just touching a horse's neck cost her money and made her apologize several times before the owner forgave her.
Thinking about it this way, Chen Sheng felt she should enjoy this good life to the fullest. She took the opportunity to stroke the horse's neck a few more times.
Chen Han, who was also riding a horse to greet the bride, thought: "Is Chen Sheng out of his mind? What's so special about a horse...?"
Combining her memories with those of the original owner of the body, Chen Han felt increasingly uneasy. She stared at the horse Chen Sheng was riding, and the more she thought about it, the more suspicious she became.
In the end, Chen Sheng and Chen Han both set their sights on each other's horses.
The Fourth Prince's residence was in the south, and the Fifth Prince's residence was in the north. After the two groups parted ways, Chen Sheng still stared longingly at the chestnut horse that Chen Han was riding.
Chen Sheng: This horse must be worth a lot of money. I wonder if it can help pay off the debt... After all, we still owe Xu Nuo 250 yuan...
The group arrived at the Fourth Prince's residence. According to custom, Chen Sheng was to personally carry Xu You into the wedding sedan chair. The sedan chair was parked ten meters away from the gate of the Fourth Prince's residence.
Looking at Xu You, who was wearing a red veil and the same wedding dress as her, and then at his accessories and tall stature... Chen Sheng didn't dare to make a move.
"Miss, according to the rules, you need to carry the Fourth Prince into the sedan chair. Please do it quickly." This was a deadly reminder from Li Mo.
Chen Sheng forced a smile, his lips twitching slightly. "Okay, I'll be right there..."
She lifted Xu You's arm and draped it over her shoulder, "Ah, Fourth Prince, I'm so sorry, so sorry to have troubled you..."
Xu You leaned against Chen Sheng's back and replied casually, "Mm."
Chen Sheng gritted his teeth and struggled to take a difficult step forward. This Xu You was really heavy, at least a hundred pounds. He really didn't know why the original text described him as such.
"Her light steps, ethereal grace, and captivating smile that stirred pity in the hearts of many women for this delicate beauty."
Chen Sheng was on the verge of tears: "Now I truly understand the bitterness of manual labor..."
Xu You: "You're not that poor."
Chen Sheng was even more heartbroken, "For you... I owe your sister two hundred and fifty..."
Xu You shut up, her hands tightly clasped together, a strange urge rising within her.
"Ah! My neck! Xu You, you murdered your wife!"
Upon hearing Chen Sheng's shout, Xu You immediately released her hand, then covered her mouth, leaned close to Chen Sheng's ear, and whispered, "You need to know where we are now."
Chen Sheng's ears and face flushed red. Someone tell her what the "white moonlight" persona is all about!
The original novel doesn't mention her marriage process, but only focuses on Ye Cangming and Xu Chen's wedding, with phrases like "ten miles of red bridal procession just to meet you" and "losing one's heart at first glance"!
Moreover! Their way of carrying the groom into the sedan chair was so beautiful and romantic, transcending worldly concerns, so why is it only "common" in her case?
The most, most, most, most important thing that everyone wrote about that day was missing from her list. What's wrong with her? Do you dislike her? And that very night, she received a green hat (a symbol of being cheated on).
The original text describes it as follows:
Chen Han had just coaxed Xu Chen to sleep, but she herself couldn't sleep. Bored, she could only wander around the backyard alone.
Suddenly, she heard a soft sob. She stopped and went closer to the lotus pond. The red figure by the pond was none other than the beauty she had been longing for day and night!
The cold moonlight shone down, illuminating the boy's face. On his beautiful face, as lovely as the moon, there was a trace of blood and a few drops of tears. What was he so sad about?
The moonlight is so beautiful!
Chen Han stepped forward and hugged him tightly, tiptoed and bit the boy's earlobe, gently exhaling, "Ayou, you are so beautiful."
After hearing this clearly, Xu You couldn't help but cry silently. His voice, trembling with sobs, became even more alluring, "A-Ye, I'm not pure anymore, will you still want me...?"
Without hesitation, Chen Han answered, "I want you! I want you right now!"
After saying that, she pushed Xu You down onto the soft grass, domineering and ruthless, conquering and plundering.
Xu You was completely captivated by his breaths.
……………………
Chen Sheng glanced back at the bridal sedan chair, wondering how this white moonlight in the harem novel could be so willing to be made into a concubine.
"Xu You, you'll get what's coming to you sooner or later..."
