Chapter 160

This is the emperor's personal order, how can you change the time if you want to change the time, as soon as Zhou Chengyan finished speaking, he knew that this method was unreliable.

Yijia handed the colder porridge to his father again.

Zhou Chengyan sighed, brought it over and drank it in big gulps.

After her father drank the porridge, Yijia took the bowl and put it aside, then half-squatted and half-kneeled at her father's feet, hugged her father's legs, and put her head on them gently, "Father, I suggested that the He went to the palace to ask for an order." Zhou Chengyan froze when he heard the words, but before he could speak, Yijia continued: "It's because my cousin knew about it first, and I was afraid that she would spread the matter. So I let He went to ask for the queen's will, and with the will, others can no longer say anything."

"Father, you should be able to tell that he treats me sincerely, and I... I also treat him sincerely. So, I don't want to hear that someone makes a fuss about our affairs..." Yi Jia spoke, raising her head He began to look at Zhou Chengyan, "I don't want to either. Some people will say that you wanted to curry favor with the Marquis of Anping, and that's why you betrothed me to him. That's obviously not the case..."

Zhou Chengyan looked down at his daughter, and saw tears in her eyes, but her expression was extremely calm.He couldn't help but reached out and patted his daughter's shoulder. His daughter, a little girl wrapped in a swaddling baby, had grown up at some point.

I know how to fight for what I like, and I know how to protect my father.

He was indeed angry at what Liang Mingxuan said, but it was only for a moment.Although Liang Mingzhi is a few years older than his daughter, his attitude and actions have always satisfied him.Even if he entrusts his daughter to him, he can rest assured.

but……

"But, father can't bear you." Zhou Chengyan sighed.

Yijia's nose was sore, and the tears she held back flowed out again.

She is also reluctant.

She was even more reluctant.

But thinking of Liang Mingzhi, thinking of his early death in his previous life, and living alone for so many years with the memories of his previous life in this life, she felt that she should go to accompany him earlier.

She owed him too much in the past and present life, how could she let him be alone because she was reluctant to leave home and the warmth from her father?
"Father, I'm sorry." She choked up and said.

"Master, Uncle Liang is here." Yuqiu replied softly at the door.

Why is he here now?

Yijia involuntarily grabbed the hem of Zhou Chengyan's robe, don't make his father angry.

Zhou Chengyan looked at his daughter's worried and nervous appearance, and thought to himself, the girl really won't be able to stay, and if she stays again, I'm afraid she will become enemies if she stays.

"Go and tell him that I'm injured and don't want to go out." He told Yijia, "Tell him to prepare the dowry gift. My most precious daughter is getting married. If the dowry gift is not prepared enough, there will be some I also disagree with the imperial decree."

what?
Yijia looked at Zhou Chengyan in surprise, and forgot to close her mouth.

What does father mean, did he agree?
Seeing his daughter's dumbfounded appearance, Zhou Chengyan was amused, but deliberately put on a straight face and said: "Hurry up, or I'll change my mind immediately!"

"Yes, my daughter is going now!" Yijia hurriedly got up and said happily.

Zhou Chengyan followed closely and said: "Remember, I only give you a quarter of an hour, and you can only talk in the yard!"

Yijia had already run out, and when she heard Zhou Chengyan's words, she turned back, showed her head at the door, and said with tears in her smile, "Yes, my daughter remembers it!"

She ran all the way out of the upper room of Zhenyu Building, and saw Liang Mingzhi in the yard wearing a light azure straight gown.There was a sapphire pendant on his waist, and he was walking back and forth anxiously.He should have known what Liang Mingxuan said at that time, and the palace not only bestowed a marriage, but also set a date for the marriage. He must be worried that his father would be angry.

Yijia saw that he looked a bit confused, and she was both sweet and distressed.

"Hey!"

A clear female voice sounded.

Liang Mingzhi turned around immediately and saw Yijia who was still smiling with tears on his face.He stepped forward subconsciously, and stretched out his hand to pull him closer to his arms.

Yijia stopped and looked at him with a smile, "I'm back to my senses."

Back to God.

Liang Mingzhi also stopped, and with a sweep of his eyes, he saw servants coming and going in the courtyard.He blushed unnaturally, the crowd was so big, so was he himself!
Yijia just walked over, stood a step away from him, and said softly: "Father is injured, so it's not convenient to come out to see you. He asked me to tell you that you... go back as soon as possible to prepare the dowry."

I was a little embarrassed, but the smile on my face couldn't stop. After Yijia finished speaking, she didn't care about the quarter of an hour her father said, so she immediately raised her hand to cover her face, and stammered: "You, you Go back and get ready, I'm leaving!"

Her joy infected Liang Mingzhi, and a smile gradually appeared on his face.

It seems that Zhou Chengyan agreed.

The little girl disappeared in the blink of an eye, but Liang Mingzhi stood there for almost a quarter of an hour before turning around and leaving.I have to go back as soon as possible to prepare for the engagement ceremony, and then I have to prepare for the betrothal gift as soon as possible.

Liang Mingzhi brought the good news back to the Marquis of Anping. Mrs. Liang was so happy that she couldn't sit still, she opened the door of the storehouse herself, and asked Nanny Feng to take it with her. Not only did she pull out Fang's dowry to choose, His dowry from that year was also pulled out.After three full days of selection from morning to night, a good one was picked out and presented to Liang Mingzhi for review.Liang Mingzhi had already packed out the betrothal gifts, just a few ledgers and land deeds, all of which he bought over the years after he was reborn.

Rongshou Hall and Hongyan Hall are busy here, but Hongbei Hall is deserted like winter.

"Liuying, did the second master have lunch?" Zhou Yihan leaned on the bed, her face was as pale as snow.

"Go back to Second Grandma, not yet." Liuying lowered her head and replied in a trembling voice.Although the second mistress was kicked by the second master that day, she could only lie in bed and couldn't get up for the past two days, but her temper became worse and worse in the past two days, and she had already beaten the two little maids.Although she is a big servant girl, she is also worried that one day this anger will turn on herself.

"Second Master hasn't had lunch yet, why don't you go and serve him?" Zhou Yihan swept away the lunch placed on the table next to him after hearing this, "Is it because you also see that Second Master is disabled, so you also look down on him Him? You are just a maid, what right do you have to think like that!"

Liu Ying had already knelt down on the ground, kowtowed her head and shouted tremblingly: "No maidservant, no maidservant, Second Mistress Mingjian!"

Zhou Yihan turned sideways slightly, and felt a commotion under her body as soon as she moved.She gasped heavily, and lay down again. Hearing Liuying's crying, she felt irritated, "Get out! If the second master doesn't have lunch, get out of the house!"

Liu Ying didn't care about it, got up and ran out, and ran a long way before she dared to wipe her tears.He didn't dare to stay outside for too long, so he hurried to the kitchen to get a meal and sent it to Liang Mingxuan's room.

Du Juan was standing at the door of the room, seeing Liuying coming, she shook her head and said in a low voice, "Second Master still refuses to eat."

Liu Ying cried again in embarrassment, "But Second Grandma said, if I can't ask Second Master to eat lunch, she will kick me out of the Hou Mansion."

The cuckoo did not squeak.

As a servant, it is bad luck to meet such a master.Liuying is in trouble today, maybe she will be in trouble tomorrow, but she can't help Liuying, she can't even protect herself.

Liuying plucked up her courage, but the hand that was placed on the door dropped again.

The second master hurt his leg and couldn't stand up for the rest of his life.Now is the time when his temperament is the most irritable, if he goes in by himself, maybe his life may be gone.She is only 16 years old, she doesn't want to die, no matter how bad her life is, she doesn't want to die.

"Sister Du Juan, tell me, what should I do?"

Du Juan didn't want to say more, but seeing Liuying's pitiful appearance, she felt a little soft in her heart, "You are not born in a family, or else, run away!"

The second master offended the son, and it was useless for the second mistress to speak in the Hou's mansion.If Liu Ying escaped, no one would arrest her because of Second Mistress's words. It would be much better than staying in the mansion.

"Escape?" Liuying thought about it, but immediately denied the idea.

Where can I escape to? What's more, if I escape, I won't have so much monthly money, and I won't be able to live in such a good house or wear such good clothes.

Liu Ying finally pushed open the door and walked in.

But there was no swearing as imagined, Liang Mingxuan on the bed watched her approaching silently.When Liuying came close, she waved away the tray in her hand, and the food was scattered all over the floor. Liuying was about to clean up in a panic, but Liang Mingxuan stretched out her hand and yanked it vigorously.

There was the sound of clothes being torn from the room, and the sound of Liuying shouting loudly. Du Juan wrapped her arms around herself, and slowly squatted down at the door.

It's nothing to do with her.

Because Yijia's wedding date is set in March of the next year, but the journey from Hangzhou to the capital is far away, and because Song Fang's wedding date is in May next year, the concubine's marriage is also very easy to handle, so the Ji family took Song Han The two sisters Song Fang stayed behind.But Song Hai returned to Hangzhou Mansion. On the one hand, the family's business cannot do without him, and on the other hand, he happened to pick up Mrs. Song.

With the emperor's will, Zhou Chengyan also eased his attitude, asking for names, Najib, Nazheng, asking for a date, everything went smoothly.As winter went to spring, Mrs. Song and Zhou Xinrong's family from Tianjin Wei rushed to the capital in February.

Since the imperial decree only said that the wedding date was set in March, and did not stipulate the specific date, Zhou Chengyan chose the last auspicious day in March and greeted him in person on March 25.

Because Bai Lu was old, Xiao Song made the decision a few years ago and betrothed her to Wang Quan's nephew, so she stayed in the Zhou family.The only dowry girls around Yijia were Xuezhu and Xiaoyu, which was not enough anyway. Years ago when Xiao Song asked Ren Yazi to come to her door, Yijia picked two more.

Xiaoyu was renamed Yuzhu, and the newly picked one was named Qingzhu and the other was named Bizhu, so the four maidservants became dowry maids.As for the housekeeper, there was no one available in the Zhou family, so they only called Xue Zhu's parents, and Liang Mingzhi also said that he would arrange another person for her at that time.

In a blink of an eye, it was March 25th.

Early in the morning, Xuezhu and the newcomer Bizhu woke up Yijia early, lit the lamp and took a bath first.Her hair was washed yesterday, and when she got out of the shower, Bizhu helped her untangle her hair first, and when Quanfu came over, it would be more convenient to comb her hair.

After washing up and changing into her wedding dress, Mrs. Lu from Quanfu came.

Mrs. Lu is Lu Pei's mother and Prime Minister Lu's wife.Mrs. Lu's parents are still alive, they have both sons and daughters, and the husband and wife are also very affectionate. Besides, she is a high-ranking wife. It is reasonable for Zhou Chengyan to be a fourth-rank official. His daughter is married, but no matter what, Mrs. Lu is not allowed to come. .It was Prime Minister Lu who revealed his intentions that the Zhou family dared to come to invite him. Both Zhou Chengyan and Yijia knew that Prime Minister Lu did it for Liang Mingzhi's sake.After all, the Lu family, like Liang Mingzhi, belonged to the prince.

Mrs. Lu looks very kind, with a round face, when she smiles, people feel in a good mood.She has a high status, and few people can invite her to be a Quanfu person, but she is the person who likes to be lively the most. Today, she finally has the opportunity, and she almost wants to praise her when she combs it.

After she finally finished combing Yijia's hair, and before she could put on any jewelry, there was a loud gong and drum outside.Mrs. Lu became anxious now, she quickly moved away and asked someone to help Yijia put on makeup and jewelry.

Yijia got married, but Zhou Yihan didn't come over, so there were no cousins ​​to say goodbye to.As for my aunt, Feng Lian also got married last month, so she didn't come over either.After putting on makeup, I said goodbye to Mrs. Zhou, Aunt, Xiao Song, and Aunt Ji, Song Han and Song Fang, two cousins. This is Mrs. Song.Mrs. Song looked much thinner than when she met last year. Yijia heard that she was very seasick, and she suffered a lot on the way here.

Old Mrs. Song hugged her granddaughter and cried hard.After her daughter had been gone for many years, she was finally alive to see her granddaughter get married.In this way, even after she dies and goes underground to see her daughter, she can also tell her daughter about it, so that her daughter can feel at ease.

The welcoming team finally arrived, and the sound of firecrackers rang out one after another. Zhou Chengyan and his elder brother Zhou Chengchi led Feng Zhou and Zhou Qi to welcome them in the front yard.In addition, behind him are some of Zhou Chengyan's colleagues and former classmates, and later fellow subjects. These people have no higher official positions than Zhou Chengyan, so they also greeted them together.At the end of the crowd, Kang Qikun stood there calmly.

Mr. Kang's health suddenly improved after he married his wife, and now he can walk on the ground with the help of others. Therefore, when Yijia got married, his grandfather insisted on coming, so he sent his grandfather along.Unexpectedly, after going around and going around, he didn't marry her, but she married Liang Mingzhi.

Liang Ming was granted an official position a few years ago, so he wore the third-rank auspicious uniform today. He has a tall and straight figure and a handsome appearance. , is even more handsome and dignified.

Kang Qikun saw it, and stepped back into the room gently.She married well, and he should be happy for her.What's more, Mrs. Liu is also very good.

Compassionate, considerate and docile, when his grandfather was lying on the hospital bed, Mrs. Liu took care of him even more in his clothes.Even if her natal family is a bit out of character, but for her sake, he is willing to help if he can.Who knows, but Liu shi told herself bluntly that she doesn't need to intervene.

Kang Qikun smiled slightly when he thought of Liu's thin shoulders that seemed to be able to hold up everything.Everything in the world has the best arrangement, and he and Liu's being together is probably the best arrangement.

Liang Mingzhi was followed by four young men, Liang Mingfei, the son of the Marquis of Anning, Liang Mingyu, the second master, Qi Fei, the son of Prince Cheng, and Lu Mian, the eldest son of Prime Minister Lu.No matter which one of these four people is pulled out, their identities are scary.Zhou Chengchi looked a little limp in his legs, but Zhou Chengyan smiled with satisfaction.

With a smile on his face, Liang Mingzhi went up to meet Zhou Chengyan and kowtowed to Zhou Chengyan.

Zhou Chengyan felt embarrassed now, not because Liang Mingzhi is considered to be higher than his official position now, but because the brothers who used to be called brothers for six or seven years suddenly knelt down and kowtowed and became his son-in-law. No matter what Zhou Chengyan thought, he felt that Something is wrong.

This courtesy is not acceptable, but if I accept it, I feel all kinds of uncomfortable.However, Feng Zhou and Zhou Qi were both gentle-tempered, and it was impossible to rely on them to stop them, so they had to accept the gift in embarrassment, led Liang Mingzhi in, and kowtowed to the old lady Zhou to serve tea.

Yijia in the backyard also received a bunch of makeup gifts, and after handing them all over to Bi Zhu, Feng Zhou and Zhou Qi came over.Zhou Qi was still young and couldn't carry Yijia on his back, so Feng Zhou, his cousin, carried her into the sedan chair on his back.

Yijia sat in the bridal sedan chair, followed by Xuezhu, who was physically strong.

Hearing the sound of gongs, drums and firecrackers, and then looking down the inside of the red hijab, I saw my red wedding dress and red embroidered shoes.Yijia only felt that tears were about to fall, and she was married again in this life, but she was full of joy.Soon, when the sedan chair arrived at Anpinghou's Mansion, and Liang Mingzhi worshiped heaven and earth, she would be his wife.

In the previous life, she hated her identity so much that she gritted her teeth, but in this life she looked forward to it so much.

She bit her lower lip to hold back her tears, she couldn't cry, she couldn't cry, on such a happy day, she wanted to laugh.She is married to Liang Mingzhi, and she will never follow the old path of her previous life in this life. They will love each other until they grow old, have a family full of grandchildren, and live happily ever after.

Gongs, drums and firecrackers sounded all the way, and finally arrived at the gate of Anping Hou Mansion.

She was helped out of the carriage, and she couldn't see the way with the hijab covered, so she followed the footsteps of the people around her all the way forward.After entering the Hou's mansion, one end of the red silk was handed to her. She looked under the red hijab, but she could only see her side.

She was a little flustered, and accidentally staggered two steps.Soon, I heard a gentle reassurance, "Don't be nervous, I'll be there soon." At the same time, the big red wedding silk was shaken slightly.

Hearing this familiar voice, Yijia's heart settled down, and as if responding, she shook the red wedding silk and followed into the wedding hall.

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

Yijia stared at her feet, her feet and Liang Mingzhi's feet stood together.They bowed their heads to each other.She felt as if they were finally standing together again after two lifetimes, and the tears she had endured all the way finally fell.Then the sound of being sent into the bridal chamber sounded, and Liang Mingzhi directly stepped over the red wedding silk and held Yijia's hand.There was a burst of laughter in the wedding hall, Yijia wanted to smoke but couldn't, so she blushed and followed him into the bridal chamber.

After entering the bridal chamber, she sat down by the bed, before she even had time to secretly wipe away her tears, the red hijab was lifted off.

Mrs. Lu from Quanfu laughed exaggeratedly and said, "Oh, the bridegroom officer can't wait!"

There was another burst of laughter in the room.

Yijia didn't dare to look at it either, she just stared ahead, at Liang Mingzhi's chest.

The next series of procedures that should be followed are like a dream. She has never experienced it in her previous life, but she is in a daze in this life. It was not until everyone in the room left that Liang Mingzhi held her face up to him, and she did not know what to do. Dizzy look over.

In fact, he is very suitable to wear red, unlike some people who will look frivolous when wearing red, his face is more and more like a crown jade, rich and handsome.Yijia looked at him, and gradually became a little crazy. He was really good-looking, and Yijia felt that she had never seen anyone more beautiful than Liang Mingzhi in her two lifetimes.

Liang Mingzhi sat beside him, gently wiped under her eyes with his hand, and asked softly, "Why are you crying?"

Why are you crying?

Like the previous life, why did you cry when you saw me on the day you married me?

Although he knows that this life is different from the previous life, the girl he likes still has him in his heart.But Liang Mingzhi still felt unable to restrain his heartache. The moment he saw the tears on her face, his heartbeat seemed to stop.

I'm afraid, I'm afraid that all this is another dream.

He is not afraid of dreaming, on the contrary, he actually likes dreaming, but he is really afraid, the feeling of waking up from a dream.

Yijia could see the emotion hidden in his eyes, and her heart was immediately filled with guilt and distress, she reached out and hugged his waist, and buried herself deeply in his chest.

"I felt so happy, I couldn't help crying with joy."

"...idiot." Liang Mingzhi said softly, heaved a sigh of relief, and stretched out his arms to hug her back.

The door was knocked lightly, and Chen Ping's voice sounded, "Master, you have to go to the front hall to meet the guests."

Yijia's hand loosened, but Liang Mingzhi hugged her even tighter.

After a while, Yijia couldn't help urging him, so he let go.Looking at her, he said seriously: "You stay in the room, I'll come over in a while. By the way, I ordered the kitchen to bring you a table of noodles, and you can use some to remove your makeup later."

Yijia hasn't eaten anything all day, so she is indeed hungry at the moment.

She nodded, but stretched out her hand to hold the corner of Liang Mingzhi's eye. The crystal in the corner of the eye wet her fingers in an instant.She responded with a rough voice, got up and sent him to the door, and watched his figure disappear before closing the door and going back to the house.

The room was full of festive redness, but Yijia burst into tears in the joy.

He De He Neng, He De He Neng, Zhou Yijia, how could she receive such good treatment and love.In this life, she swears that she must use all she has to give back to that man, to love that man.

"Miss, I'm Xuezhu, the kitchen has made a table of noodles, is it convenient for you to eat now?" Xuezhu knocked on the door and said.

Yijia wiped away her tears, smiled, and said softly, "Come in."
