Chapter 461 Extra: Marriage 3
The emperor and empress were of noble status and naturally would not come to watch the ceremony in person. Sitting on the other side of the hall was Nan Rong Yuanzhi.
The miracle doctor is worthy of being a miracle doctor. Not only does he not look the least bit old during his travels, but he looks even younger and more energetic. He seems to be of the same generation as Shangguan Chong and his wife.
Xiao Shitou walked beside the bride and groom, holding Xiao Ruyi's hand, with a bamboo basket full of bright flower petals in his arms.
He struggled to grab the petals and tried to sprinkle them on the newlyweds' heads, but he was not tall enough and ended up sprinkling most of them on their clothes.
As for Xiao Ruyi, who was still not walking well, it took her several attempts before she was able to grab the petals in her hand and throw them to the ground.
Zhang Jiaojiao held her chin with one hand and watched with great interest, she was filled with envy. In two months, it would be her wedding day, and her parents would definitely not allow her to do such a shocking thing.
Suddenly, she felt a warm sensation beside her ears. She subconsciously turned her head and kissed Shangguan Song's cheek with her lips.
My mind went blank and I stood there like a cooked shrimp.
Shangguan Song had not expected that there would be such a surprise waiting for him. He was stunned for a moment and then laughed softly, continuing what he was about to say.
"I want to ask you, when we get married, would it be okay to hold our wedding in such a beautiful garden?"
"Where can we find such a beautiful garden?"
Zhang Jiaojiao bit her lips gently, and her whole body became a little shy, no longer as generous and forthright as before.
"My mother has several houses in the suburbs of Beijing. Ah Yue loves gardening, and now all of them are beautifully maintained by her.
You are always busy with business matters, even busier than me, and I haven't had the chance to take you over to have a look."
Zhang Jiaojiao asked expectantly:
"Is it really okay? Wouldn't that be against the rules?"
"We have the final say on our own marriage. Mother is very open-minded and will never stand in our way. As for my father-in-law and mother-in-law, we will act first and report to them later. They won't be able to do anything about it then." Shangguan Song responded with a smile.
The two smiled in tacit understanding and continued to watch the ceremony.
After the wedding ceremony, Shangguan Qingyue was led back to the backyard by Xuanyuan Yan. Along the way, she wanted to lift up her veil and look around.
Because she heard from Bai Er that their master had spent a lot of time decorating the house in preparation for the wedding, and she didn't know what it looked like.
But of course she would not lift up the veil to see it. The bridal makeup that had taken so long to complete had to be kept secret until the last moment.
For the first time, Xuanyuan Yan felt that it was not a good idea to build the house too big. He had been walking for more than half a quarter of an hour and still hadn't reached his destination.
However, after crossing the last hanging flower gate, the hand holding the little girl suddenly began to sweat.
The wedding lady who was following beside her saw the place and immediately smiled and said loudly:
"The bride and groom are entering the bridal chamber. Open the door quickly!"
After hearing a few "hu la la" sounds, the servants immediately got busy. The sound of doors opening, the sound of congratulations, the sound of dishes colliding... the whole backyard was bustling with activity.
When the two finally sat down, the matchmaker urged Xuanyuan Yan to quickly take the jade ruyi and lift the bride's veil. The servants also gathered together curiously, waiting to catch a glimpse of the bride's beautiful face.
However, Xuanyuan Yan did not act in a hurry. Instead, he waved away everyone present. He waited until the door was closed and the noise died down before he took a deep breath and reached out with trembling hands to take the jade ruyi that the emperor had rewarded him.
He hardly slept the whole night, and imagined countless times in his mind the stunning appearance of his beloved girl in a phoenix coronet and bridal gown.
However, when the veil was lifted, he was still shocked beyond words.
His little bride did not wear a luxurious phoenix crown, but a wreath made of various flowers. She also did not wear heavy makeup, but was dressed in a simple and elegant manner.
The most valuable piece of jewelry on her body is the emerald green jade bracelet on her fair wrist. The hairpins and rings in her hair are mainly light and simple.
But even so, his little girl was still dazzlingly beautiful, like a fairy among flowers.
At first Shangguan Qingyue was able to remain calm, but he was stared at for too long and ended up feeling uncomfortable all over.
There was a mattress under her, and peanuts, red dates, longans and other things were scattered on the ground, which made her very uncomfortable.
Seeing that the man in front of her couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, she had to stand up and said with a smile:
"If you keep looking at me, I'm going to start to doubt whether I'm a peerless beauty. Am I really that pretty?"
Xuanyuan Yan felt that his brain was not working properly at the moment, and he nodded subconsciously, his eyes still fixed on the other person.
Until my cheeks were held by a pair of soft hands and my head was gently shaken a few times.
"I am back to my soul, my groom."
"Hmm? Groom? What should you call me now?" Xuanyuan Yan suddenly bent down and put his forehead and nose against hers.
Although Shangguan Qingyue's face was red, she still held her chest high and said confidently:
"We haven't drunk the wedding wine or tied the knot yet. It's not a wedding until it's done."
Xuanyuan Yan chuckled, hugged the person and carried him back to the bed. After completing a series of tasks, he asked again:
"Can you change your words now? How should you address me?"
Shangguan Qingyue couldn't help but give him a blank look.
"Isn't it nice to call you A-Yan? You are so obsessed with a name, what about you?"
"Madam? Wife? Beloved? Whichever name do you prefer? I'm fine with any of them." Xuanyuan Yan smiled brightly, as if he had never smiled so freely before.
Shangguan Qingyue was simply stunned, and only murmured when the other party stopped smiling:
"Husband, you look so beautiful when you smile, hmm..."
Before he could finish his words, he was kissed on the lips by someone who couldn't wait any longer. Before the two of them fell on the bed, they did not forget to turn around and act as human cushions.
But it was impossible to go to the bridal chamber right away, as they were waiting outside for the two of them to go back and have dinner together. Yes, the bride also went with them.
This was suggested by Baili Nanqing. Those sitting outside were the closest relatives, so there was no need to let the bride stay in the room alone.
Sure enough, there was a knock on the door soon. Standing outside the door was Li Xiaonan with a smirk on his face.
"Sister, brother-in-law, don't be in a hurry to have your wedding night. The food is already served, and everyone is waiting for you two protagonists with hungry stomachs!"
Xuanyuan Yan's face was dark as he left his wife's lips with difficulty, and he took out a handkerchief to help her wipe the corners of her mouth. He couldn't help but complain:
"Qingqing, Xiaonan is getting more and more presumptuous. Her face is thicker than a city wall. If she continues like this, men will probably stay away from her!"
It means you have to take good care of it.
Shangguan Qingyue sat down in front of the dressing table, untied her hair, and replied with a smile:
"This is not a threat to her. She told me a long time ago that she didn't want to get married and wanted to be a famous female doctor."
Xuanyuan Yan walked behind her naturally, helped her remove the hairpins and untie her hair, and then took a comb to loosen her scalp.
After combing her black hair, she skillfully tied it into a simple and comfortable bun. Shangguan Qingyue opened her eyes wide and looked at the man behind her in the bronze mirror.
"Ayan, you've done so well that it puts a lot of pressure on me."
"You just need to love me, and I'll take care of the rest." The man leaned over and kissed her on the cheek, took her hand, pushed the door open and went to the living room.
