The Road to Doting Wife

Chapter 50: A Cup of Wine (2)
Silence was restored in the room again. As for whether the three of them fell asleep, only they knew.

Before dawn the next day, the Lin family became lively.

There are people coming and going in the room, Ah Ju is dazzled, her eyes and ears are useless, she can do whatever the people around her ask her to do, she wears makeup on her face and wears a wedding dress and a phoenix crown. Covered with a red hijab.It didn't seem long before the relatives arrived outside, and the sound of crackling firecrackers was mixed with whistling and children's frolicking.

Ah Ju couldn't help but clenched her hands tightly.

Suddenly, it became quiet outside, and the excitement reached the door of the wing room.Sitting on the kang, Ah Ju could only see herself under the hijab, but she heard her brother and sister in front of the door playing tricks on the people outside, and Zhao Chen's smiling voice came through the crack of the door from time to time.Ah Ju quietly clenched her cuffs, hoping that he would come in later.

Lin Zhu looked at the eldest sister, smiled and asked the last question: "Brother Zhao, first tell me what kind of clothes she was wearing when you first met my eldest sister, and then I called your brother-in-law and asked you to come in and take my eldest sister away! "

Ah Ju's heart skipped a beat.

It was the first time I met her. He must have never seen her when he passed by on horseback that day. To him, the first meeting should have been at Pinlanju. What clothes did she wear that day?
Ah Ju himself has no memory.

But she soon heard the man's refreshing voice: "That day she led Xiao Jiu and walked on the road, wearing a pink shirt and white skirt."

Ah Ju was completely stunned, he walked quickly, but he just passed by in a flash, and he noticed her?

Lin Zhu didn't know about this, just as he was about to ask his elder sister, Lin Chongjiu had already shouted: "Brother-in-law is right, let him in quickly!"

Lin Zhu gave his younger brother a chestnut and opened the door with a smile.

Zhao Chen stood in front of the door in a red wedding gown, under the groom's hat was like a crown jade, and the phoenix eyes were as bright as stars.He smiled and touched the head of his brother-in-law who was closest to him, and then couldn't suppress his excitement anymore, he stepped into the room.

His bride, dressed in bright red, sat on the kang, the tassels on the side of the hijab trembled slightly.

He hasn't seen her for a month since Qiu busy.

In another hour, she will be sitting in the new room he prepared for her.

After performing some etiquette, the two went to the upper room to bid farewell to Lin Xian and his wife.

As soon as the new couple entered the room, Liu's eye circles turned red. No matter how satisfied he was with his son-in-law, today he was full of reluctance. He only stared at the eldest daughter whose face was covered by a veil.

Touching the scene, Lin Xian was also filled with emotion.He thought of when he married his wife, the bridal chamber was full of love and affection, and soon after the marriage his wife was happy, and the couple had fantasized about whether the child was a boy or a girl, and what to name them for several months.On the day his wife gave birth, he walked up and down outside the door feeling very upset, and then he saw his first child.It was a daughter, and he racked his brains to think of many good names for his eldest daughter, but his wife liked to eat oranges the most at that time, and thought that the polite villagers he named would be a joke, so she thought of the nickname "Aju", and also for her. She is not as vulgar and complacent as Chunlan Qiumei...

In the blink of an eye, his oranges were ripe and picked away.

"Aju, after you get married, you should be filial to your parents-in-law, be considerate to your husband-in-law, and open up branches and leaves for the Zhao family as soon as possible... Chengyuan, I will marry Aju to you today, you must treat her well, remember what you said when you proposed marriage, Don't let her suffer the slightest bit of grievance." After preparing a lot of words, this is all she said in the end.

There was a slight movement around him, Zhao Chen turned his head, and saw his bride lowered her head on purpose, tears fell from the hijab, and fell to the ground and wet the green bricks, the tears fell in pairs, gradually There was an uncontrollable sob.Although Zhao Chen had long decided to treat her well for the rest of his life, at this moment he felt a sense of responsibility for the first time, not towards her, but towards the parents who gave birth to her and raised her.

He bowed very solemnly to his father-in-law and mother-in-law: "Don't worry, father-in-law and mother-in-law, every word Cheng Yuan said comes from the heart and will be remembered forever."

Even if the son-in-law swears on his life, it is impossible for Lin Xian to rest assured, but so what?

He stood up from the chair, picked up the weeping eldest daughter on his back, and sent her to the sedan chair.

Ah Ju lay on her father's body, crying nonstop, hoping that it would be good if she could not reach the door, but the road would eventually come to an end. Amidst the noise of the villagers, she was firmly placed in the sedan chair by her father, and she said a few choked words. After exhorting, the father left, the car curtain fell, and she was the only one left in the festive red.Outside, Xi Po said a few more auspicious words, then smiled and said to her: "The bride is seated firmly, let's get up the sedan chair!"

Ah Ju held the handkerchief against the corner of her eyes with one hand, and supported the sedan chair with the other.

After shaking slightly, the sedan chair was lifted up.

Amidst the sound of blowing and beating, Ah Ju's tears stopped. After recovering, she lowered her head to look at the wedding dress on her body. The sadness of leaving home was gradually replaced by the anxiety of being newly married.

Yesterday the daughter of the Lin family, today the daughter-in-law of the Zhao family, from now on, she will be Zhao Chen's wife.

Outside Zhaojiazhuangzi, there was a lot of joy at this time.

Zhao Chen didn't invite many business people, but he invited all the villagers from the same village to eat at home, in order to create a lively scene.

In the main room, Zhao Yunting and Ning Shi sat side by side, waiting for the newcomer to come to worship the heaven and the earth.

Looking at the opposite wife dressed as a mistress, Zhao Yunting suddenly felt guilty, but also thankful that the eldest son insisted on getting married at this time.The daughter of the Ning family, Ning Lanrong, had already "died of illness". She was a first-rank wife appointed by the imperial court. Now he can bring her back to the Marquis Mansion, and even go out for a walk in private. If you marry her again, you can't let her show up on a formal occasion and openly despise Huangwei.

He's sorry for her, but what can he do?Divorce his wife, pour dirty water on her and ruin her reputation. He can't do it, and he can't do it. She is the wife he tried to marry back. Qin's concubine ceremony in front of his wife's "tablet".

Just wait, after the Duke's Mansion was defeated, he divorced the Qin family, never married again, and left all the affairs of the Hou Mansion to her. She is still the mistress of the Hou Mansion, and her status is her She has always been his wife, but it's just not easy to show her face in public.Fortunately, she never cared about those, no matter what he did, she didn't care...

Zhao Yunting silently retracted his gaze.

If there was no Duke's Mansion, would he have waited until the flowers bloomed?
It's a pity that if there is no if, he will be sorry for her after all.

Outside Zhao's house.

The sedan chair fell, but Ah Ju's heart rose at that moment, holding the red silk in her hand, and the other end was led by a man, and she walked in step by step.

It's the first time for her to come to the Zhao family.

The younger sister said that the scenery near Zhaojiazhuangzi is very good, with mountains and waters, all kinds of orchids are planted in the Zhaojia yard, and rare famous orchids are placed in the hall. The sycamore tree is as graceful as a cover.

Last time she pretended to be sick and avoided him, but now she has married him.

While thinking wildly, the man beside him stopped, Ah Ju took his eyes back from his black boots, and looked down at his feet.

Worship heaven and earth, worship high hall, husband and wife worship each other.

She turned to him, with the heavy phoenix crown on her head, she had to lower it carefully, and this time, she really became his wife.

With the sound of congratulations, she followed him to the new house.

It was about to meet, Ah Ju was suddenly very nervous, not knowing how to face Zhao Chen.She refused to marry him time and time again, but he married her back in the end. Now that he is at his house, he doesn't have to pretend anymore. Will he laugh at her and satirize her?Ah Ju still remembered Zhao Chen's sarcastic eyes, which were high above and would not allow disobedience.

The red silk in his hand tightened suddenly, others might not be able to see it, but Zhao Chen felt it, he looked at Ah Ju, is this, nervous?

He speeded up his pace slightly calmly. He had waited so long for this day, and he wanted to see her soon.

After entering the new house, Ah Ju sat on the kang with the support of Xi Niang, and then heard Xi Niang say a few auspicious words, it was time to pick up the hijab.Ah Ju nervously had no place to rest her heart, secretly clenched her hands hidden in her sleeves, and saw that there were more men's wedding robes in the narrow field of vision under the hijab.He was so close that she could even hear the sound of his sleeves rubbing against his robe when he lifted the golden scale. Just as she was listening, she shook her head and the next moment, her eyes lit up...

Ah Ju instinctively closed her eyes.

The surroundings were strangely quiet, as if the women who had surrounded the room just now had disappeared.In this kind of silence, a moment also becomes long. Ah Ju's eyelashes trembled, and she slowly lifted it up, because there was a man standing next to her, and she couldn't help looking up at him.The man was tall, and she lost her courage when she saw the chest, and she hurriedly lowered her eyes, not daring to look at him anymore, not at anyone, but only at her own hands.

She didn't dare, but Zhao Chen was dumbfounded.

Fengguanxiapei, under her full dress, she looks like a fairy descended from the earth, her eyes are like clear water, her face is like a hibiscus, and her thick and slightly curly eyelashes tremble slightly, as if brushing at the tip of his heart.He wanted to look into her eyes, to see what she was thinking, but she was too timid, and she lowered her eyes before meeting him.With such a thin skin, it's a good thing to marry him, otherwise at night, the next day in the bridal chamber, you will find out that your husband is extremely ugly, wouldn't you be disappointed and sad?

Zhao Chen smiled, and handed the golden scale to Xi Niang sideways, beckoning her to continue.

It's time to drink Hebei wine.

Zhao Chen sat down next to Ah Ju, Xi Niang smiled and walked to them with two glasses of wine, Zhao Chen took a glass first, and then looked at Ah Ju expectantly.

Ah Ju could feel his gaze, but at this time, she couldn't hide.

She picked up her red porcelain wine glass, the cuffs were red, the Danko on her nails was red, and the outside of the wine glass was also red. When she reached for it, the man's gaze followed her hand.Ah Ju pursed her lips, and turned towards the man under Xi Niang's smiling urging.She still didn't dare to look at him, when he raised his hand first, she lowered her head slightly and raised it up, and walked around his elbow, their sleeves of the same color touched together, perfectly natural.Ah Ju's eyelashes trembled even more, her upper body leaned forward to drink, his hands were raised high, she had to raise her head, and when she raised her eyes, she accidentally met the man's star-like phoenix eyes.As if he expected her to look at him, he waited patiently for her all the time, his eyes were full of tenderness, and there seemed to be a touch of hotness in the depths that made her flustered.

Ah Ju immediately looked away, not daring to look at him.

The amber-colored daughter red fell into the mouth, and it was mellow and soft. Ah Ju had never drank alcohol. Could it be that the chaotic feeling in his mind at this time meant he was drunk?
"wait me back."

Just when Ah Ju was about to take back his hand, the man suddenly blew lightly into her ear, but the strange throbbing brought by the blowing breath made her more flustered than his inaudible four words.Ah Ju looked at him involuntarily, but the man stood up and put the wine glass on the tray, and strode towards the door, disappearing in an instant.
