Stepmother Shaoguang

Chapter 4 Wedding Night

Of course He Shaoguang knew that this was a custom, but he was a little flustered doing it.As expected of someone who has been married once, Lu Xiaowen would guide her on what to do next even during the church visit and bridal chamber.

The room was full of voices, and amidst the booing, Lu Xiaowen calmly lifted her hijab.What caught the eye was a pair of provocative sword-browed and star-eyed eyes, which quite suited his status as a general. At this moment, the red wedding dress was on his body, and it also dyed the solemn facial features a bit glamorous.

What He Shaoguang heard the most today were auspicious words. Everyone poured out like they didn't want money. As their center, He Shaoguang's cheeks were sore from laughter.

The other sisters-in-law of the second room, the first wife of elder brother Lu Xiaowen and third younger brother, came forward to drive these people to the front hall for drinks for her, and closed the door for He Shaoguang.

At this moment, only Lu Xiaowen and He Shaoguang are left.

"Do you know what to do now?" Lu Xiaowen casually put the hijab on the side of the bed rail, and finally said the first sentence to her other than the reminder.

"Huh?" When he was in a trance, his thoughts were pulled back, and He Shaoguang felt a little embarrassed.

Lu Xiaowen was not angry either, she took two wine glasses, put one of them into her hand, and poured it full: "Have a drink, let's drink."

"Ah... good." He Shaoguang raised his head and gulped it down.

Lu Xiaowen glanced at her in surprise, the wine in the house was all strong spirits brought back from the Northland, and other people in the Lu House usually don't drink it, but today, Lu Xiaowen was worried that the girl would be affected by this weak girl. No, I didn't expect it to be a good drinker?
He Jiumengzi Shaoguang didn't appreciate it, and commented arrogantly: "Spicy enough, good wine!"

Lu Xiaowen silently picked up the wine glass she threw aside, tied the two glasses together with silk and threw them under the bed.

After He Shaoguang drank, he gradually became bolder. Seeing his strange behavior, he wondered, "What are you doing?"

Lu Xiaowen didn't bother her either, and explained to her patiently: "Drinking the wedding wine on the wedding night is very particular, and it is said that doing so can make the husband and wife have one heart."

"Ah...that's amazing, you know so much." He Shaoguang gave him a thumbs up, sincerely admiring, "Thanks to you today, thank you, otherwise I would be embarrassed by so many red tapes."

"Madam, are you disliking me for being married?" Lu Xiaowen lowered his head, his face was dark and unclear, and his voice seemed a little bit aggrieved.

He Shaoguang felt that he was either drunk or crazy. How could General Lu, who ruled the northern border, be wronged by such a thing?Is it her turn to dislike him?

Okay, He Shaoguang racked his brains, trying to comfort him: "General Lu, don't have to feel inferior, my mother said that older people will hurt people."

"Hey" Lu Xiaowen let out a sneer, got up and walked out, while telling her, "I'll go outside to entertain the guests, you can rest on your own, don't wait for me."

Without the unfamiliar man here, He Shaoguang felt much more at ease.Zhijun and Nijun who brought her together took off her hairpin, changed into pajamas, and washed off the thick makeup powder. The bondage of the day finally dissipated.

It was still early, so He Shaoguang wandered around the house, inspecting the decorations in the house.The decoration of the Lu Mansion does not match its prominent power, but it is full of elegance.There are not many furnishings on the Bogu shelf, and they are all rare boutiques.

At about the same time, the servants in the mansion brought the meals.Although He Shaoguang only asked for some porridge, the big kitchen naturally wouldn't just send the new wife a bowl of porridge.

He Shaoguang glanced at the table, and there were four or five types of porridge: golden corn and corn porridge, red bean medicinal rice porridge mixed with honey, and the simplest, white porridge that tested the most kung fu.

He Shaoguang likes the sticky white rice porridge, which has a rich aroma, but the rice soup in front of him is as clear as water, and the rice grains are all sinking in the bottom of the bowl, which is incompatible with each other. It seems that the chefs in the Lu family need to polish it a bit more. Porridge Kung Fu.

He Shaoguang decisively chose corn porridge, and then looked at the accompanying side dishes.

There are Lingnan-style boiled chicken, boneless and thin slices; there are also various flavors of pickles, which the boy said came from Sanweiju, including eight-treasure vegetables, sugar garlic, milk cucumbers, pagoda vegetables, and radishes. There is a large plate full of ginger and sauced ginger, etc., which are placed in small plates; there is also the popular roast duck in the capital, which is sliced ​​into duck meat and duck skin, served on separate plates, served with shredded cucumber and green onion, rolled and soft dipping sauce
He Shaoguang tried one after another, and one of them was quite pleasantly surprised by a bean curd bun: the stuffing was only mushrooms and shallots, and there was no meat, but it was full of meat.Mushrooms are not chopped into fine mud, but retain some grainy taste, light bite and overflowing juice, very delicious.

With refreshing side dishes, He Shaoguang, who was extremely hungry, drank two bowls of hot porridge.It was Zhijun who reminded Lu Xiaowen in a low voice that he was back, so he could stop chopsticks.

Ni Jun was about to remove the table, but Lu Xiaowen raised his hand to stop her.

"Just now at the banquet, I was only focused on eating wine. I thought I would call the kitchen to pass the meal later. Since it is prepared now, I will use it together."

Ni Jun hurriedly handed over the bowls and chopsticks, and then pulled Zhi Jun out, leaving He Shaoguang to prepare dishes for him.

What Lu Xiaowen chose was duck sauce porridge, which was boiling on the casserole, and it was still boiling hot at the moment.He Shaoguang didn't know what he liked to eat, so he simply let him pick it up, while she went to find a travel book and sat opposite Lu Xiaowen to read it.

"Why are you looking at travel notes?" Lu Xiaowen caught a glimpse of her fascinated, "I have been to the land of Sichuan and Sichuan. The road is very difficult and difficult. Why do you want to go?"

He Shaoguang didn't raise his head: "I don't want to go." After thinking about it, he added, "The local customs and customs, I prefer to see what the local people are used to eating and what customs are there?" Try to reproduce it by yourself.

"It's interesting."

After saying this, the two fell into silence again.It must be common for newcomers who have just met for less than half a day to sit silently.He Shaoguang comforted himself like this, and he didn't intend to take the initiative to communicate.

After Lu Xiaowen finished eating and washed, he lay on the bed, He Shaoguang's heart was beating like a drum, his fingernails were dug into the palm of his hand and embedded in his flesh, wondering if anything would happen tonight.

Feeling the stiffness of the people around her, Lu Xiaowen comforted with a smile: "Go to sleep, it's okay."

Only then did He Shaoguang relax, she fell asleep quickly, and vaguely heard Lu Xiaowen still asking her: "What do your family members call you on weekdays? Is there any fine print?"

He Shaoguang muttered: "No more, they will call me Shaoguang."

"Okay, you can call me Zhenyao, my nickname is Lu Zhenyao."

A good night's sleep.

On the second day, I had to go to pay my respects to the old lady, a bunch of trivial matters, so Zhijun called He Shaoguang early in the morning.Lu Xiaowen had to practice in the school grounds every day. When He Shaoguang finished washing, he lifted the curtain and walked in. He went straight to the bathroom to change his soaked underwear.

Nijun is dexterous but not as quick as Zhijun, and she is mainly responsible for He Shaoguang's grooming on a daily basis.At this moment, seeing Lu Xiaowen came back, he started to feel a little flustered, and wanted to speed up his hands, fearing that it would delay the time to pay his respects.

Seeing that it was still early in the sky, He Shaoguang patted her hand and comforted her: "It's okay, just come as usual, don't worry." She knew that the maids who followed her to marry were all devoted to her, and she was afraid What mistakes did she make in Lu's mansion, which made her, the master, lose face.

Zhijun is okay, after all, she is two years older than her.And Ni Jun is about the same age as He Shaoguang, with little experience, and needs to spend more time to practice.
