After crossing over, I am popular with both men and women

Su Fu

Su Qinchao's father and mother were opposed to his participation in the military examination, and only Su Qinqi, who had just returned, agreed.

This time he came back to pick up Rong mother and daughter to take them to Longzhou County, Guangxi to take up their posts. He will be leaving in three days.

It was precisely because he had taken the imperial examination that he felt how difficult it was. He was already a rare young genius, and it took him several years to pass the examination. Among the candidates who took the examination at that time, there were many elderly people in their sixties.

The person ahead of him was a 48-year-old middle-aged man. When the results were announced that day, he even cried with joy and said frankly that he had made it through and his wife would no longer have to strain her eyes from embroidery.

Although Su Qinchao also passed the imperial examination at a young age, he met a good examiner who knew how to appreciate him. However, the road ahead in the imperial examination was long, and it was not easy to meet another one.

It would be better to change to the military examination in advance. Although it is not as valued as the liberal arts, at least you can be appointed as an official if you pass the examination, which is worse than wasting time at home.

Later, he wrote to Miss Liu to ask about this matter, and Miss Liu replied in agreement.

In the letter, she mentioned that one spring when she and her mother went for an outing, she saw him practicing shooting with a child by the Dongting Lake. His every move was so graceful and elegant that she began to secretly admire him.

Later, when she met the Su family, she recognized him from the portrait and agreed.

With the approval of Miss Liu, Su Qinchao no longer hesitated and practiced day and night. The next year, he applied for the military examination and got the 19th place, which was the last one to be admitted.

For a time, the Su family was famous in the county. The family had two sons, one who passed the imperial examination and the other who passed the imperial examination. Friends and relatives who came to visit all came to the house, and the Su family's house was always crowded with people.

Together with the in-laws, both the Rong and Liu families enjoyed glory, and were praised for their excellent vision and for getting a good son-in-law.

In a flash, the three-year mourning period was over. The Su and Liu families quickly picked a date and began to prepare for the wedding of the two.

Before proposing, Su's father took Su Qinchao with him, and the two of them traveled around the nearby mountains for three days before they caught two pairs of wild geese.

This unique betrothal gift is rare in Yueyang County. Wild geese are loyal birds, and it also shows the importance of the family.

On the wedding day, Su Qinchao rode a tall horse and joyfully carried the bride into the mansion through the main gate.

The two held hands and stepped over the fire basin. After they bowed to heaven and earth, they were pushed into the bridal chamber by the crowd. Their veil was lifted amid laughter. After they drank the wedding wine, Su Qinchao hurriedly drove everyone out.

After closing the door, he placed the blushing Liu Huiyun on the small couch and quickly put away the wedding fruits on the bed.

After finishing her work, she called in Liu Huiyun's two maids who came with her as a dowry, and asked them to help Liu Huiyun take off the heavy phoenix crown on her head and wash and comb her hair.

"Yunniang, your husband will go to the front yard to entertain the guests first. I will ask Guanqi to bring a table of food over later. You can eat first. I don't know how long we will be busy tonight. If you are tired, you can rest first."

After saying this, fearing that she would be shy, he opened the door and went straight to the front yard without waiting for her to answer.

"Wow, you're back so soon~" As soon as he reached the front yard, he saw Gao Zhili and Li Ji and others standing in the corridor, looking at him teasingly.

"That's right, why don't the groom spend more time with the bride?" Liu Qingsong, who has always been a rather old-fashioned person, also joined in the fun. After all, he is just a young man.

After some more laughter, everyone let him go and went to the banquet together, arm in arm.

Su Qinchao arranged seats for several classmates, and then followed his father and brother to take turns toasting at the table. Even though his mother had diluted the drink with water in advance, the three of them still drank until they passed out.

It was not until he was helped back to the room and took a bath that Su Qinchao finally came to his senses a little. The bride before him was the one he had been waiting for for many years.

Spanning past and present lives, they are finally together today.

"Yunniang~" Su Qinchao said in a hoarse voice. He held Liu Huiyun's face and gently pecked her cherry lips. Then he fell on her with a silly smile and fell asleep.

next day

"Husband! Husband! Half asleep and half awake, Su Qinchao was pushed awake and opened her eyes in a daze.

He glanced out the window and found that it was just getting light. He then pulled Yunniang, who wanted to get up, back to bed, mumbling:

"Don't worry, I told my parents yesterday that we won't follow other families' practices. It won't be too late to get up and serve tea at 9:00 p.m."

At this moment, except for Su's father who needs to be on duty, everyone in the family is probably still asleep.

"Really?" Yunniang struggled. Her mother was also loved by her father and grandmother, but she also visited her mother every morning and evening.

Unless there is an accident, not a single day is delayed.

"If you really can't sleep, let's do what we didn't have time to do last night." After talking for a while, Su Qinchao was completely awake, and that place happened to be also very awake as usual.

"How can I do that in broad daylight..." Yunniang was so embarrassed that she rolled up the quilt to cover herself. Although she was a bit erratic at times, this was absolutely unacceptable.

In the end, Su Qinchao didn't get anything done and could only lie there for a while. After watching Yunniang finish washing up, he resigned himself to getting up and getting dressed.

He thought to himself that after serving tea, he would ask his mother to persuade her, otherwise, if she continued to do this, he would not be able to sleep in.

Su Mansion Front Hall

Su Qinchao had just finished serving tea to Su's father and mother who had arrived late, with Yunniang. Before he could even warm up the thick red envelopes in his hands, he saw his uncles and aunts coming in with their families.

There was another round of kneeling and bowing, which lasted for two hours. It was almost noon when everyone said goodbye and left.

After finishing lunch and returning to the bridal chamber, Su Qinchao just wanted to hug his wife and lie down to catch up on some sleep. He was exhausted, not to mention the delicate little girl.

The two of them slept soundly and almost missed dinner when they woke up. Dinner in the Su family was served early, usually at 15:00 on the twelfth hour of the evening.

The sun was setting at this time. Hearing the noises of the two people, Guanqi asked quietly outside the door:

"Master, Madam, are you up?" After receiving the response from the two, Guanqi's voice became louder:

"Madam asked me to pass on a message. From now on, except for the first and fifteenth day of each month, you two don't need to go to greet each other. Except for dinner, you can eat in your rooms at other times." After he paused, he continued:

"You two are exhausted today. Madam asked the kitchen to leave some food for you two. Shall we bring it up now?"

"Please pass it on."

After waiting for a long time for the sun to set, and after both of them had taken a bath, Su Qinchao couldn't wait to turn off the lights.

There was only a small lamp beside the bed, and the flickering dim light made Yunniang look even more charming and pretty.

Su Qinchao held Yunniang's hand tightly and whispered in her ear, "Can you help me take off my clothes?"

Then he kissed her eyes, then her nose, then her lips, until he stopped at her neck...
