After I got into the drama, I led the plot astray

Chapter 587: Jin Ping Gets Married

Since winter came, I hardly go out.

Every day, Mao reads books and practices calligraphy by the charcoal fire in the house, claiming that he is cultivating his mind and character, but in fact, his body is getting weaker day by day and he is no longer fit to go out.

Everyone knew that I was in poor health and was very nervous. Hua Wushuang often came to chat with me with her big fat son in her arms. He Wan'er also brought Zheng Xi and Zheng Yunfei to play with my Ali from time to time. Many times the three children would get together, and the house would be really lively.

The younger ones cried and the older ones made a fuss. We adults didn't pay much attention to these children, but the wet nurse and the maids were very anxious. They were always afraid that the three babies would fall or get hurt. All day long, the house and the yard were in chaos, and the noise made people's heads buzzing.

Despite this, I will not feel bored or disgusted, because in the last years of my life, I have such a group of people accompanying me. Although they are a little noisy, they make me forget the pain and loneliness.

After the Chinese New Year, the countdown to the final examination began.

We were all very nervous, but Jinping seemed much more relaxed than us. He even took time out to accompany Zheng Yunyan to Huangjue Temple to appreciate the flowers. When we came back, he also asked for a peace amulet for me.

I took the amulet with a smile and joked, "You should ask for a lucky charm for yourself to bless yourself with good luck in the exam."

Jinping's eyes were full of light and darkness, but he smiled and said, "With my talent, it's just a test. It won't be difficult for me."

Soon the day of the exam arrived. Jinping was lucky enough to draw a good lot and was assigned to a good exam room. Once they entered the exam room, they had to stay there for three days, eating, drinking, defecating and urinating in it. If they drew a good exam room, they would suffer less.

Yiping prepared a lot of food for Jinping and also prepared a small charcoal stove and charcoal for him. He could just put the food on the charcoal stove to heat it up and eat it hot.

I prepared thick bedding for him. The weather in early spring is still very cold, and if he doesn't sleep well in it, it will affect his exams.

Zheng Yunyan gave Jinping a bright red fox cloak, which not only kept him warm but also symbolized good luck.

The three days of exams passed quickly.

Yi Ping, Zhao Zhenyuan, Zheng Yunyan and I were all waiting at the entrance of the examination room for Jinping to come out.

When the exam was almost over, Mrs. Du and Hua Wushuang actually came with the fat boy.

Our group was very eye-catching. We were dressed luxuriously and had extraordinary demeanor. Most importantly, Yiping and I were so good-looking that everyone kept looking at us.

After waiting for a long time, the "dong dong dong" sound of drums finally rang out, the door of the examination room opened, and candidates walked out one after another.

The candidates who came out all looked bad, and many of them even staggered and couldn't stand steadily.

Before the exam, wealthy families would send a servant boy to go in and help grind ink and prepare food, etc.

We also sent a servant to accompany Jinping, but when the servant came out, his face looked even uglier than Jinping's, as if he was the one who had taken the three-day exam.

Looking at Jinping running towards us at great speed, we finally felt relieved.

Jinping saw me standing at the door waiting for me, frowned, and said with a sullen face: "Why are you here too, Ah Man? It's so cold outside, how can your body bear it?"

I gathered my fox fur coat and said with a smile, "It's okay, I'm not cold at all. Judging from your appearance, you should have done well in the exam, right?"

Jinping nodded proudly and said, "The test questions are not difficult. They are all the content I have studied hard."

Zhao Zhenyuan patted Jinping's shoulder happily and said, "You are worthy of being my son. Well done."

Mrs. Du also smiled and said, "Seeing Jin'er's high-spirited look, my heart is calm too."

Jinping looked at the gloomy sky and said, "Everyone, hurry back home. The weather is not very good and it might rain."

Yi Ping smiled and said, "I have asked the servants to prepare a banquet at the mansion. Please go to the Duke's Mansion and have a cup of hot wine."

Zheng Yunyan shyly leaned towards Jinping, who reached out and touched her head, saying, "I promised your father that I would marry you after the trial. I'll have someone pick a good day and come to propose to you."

After hearing this, Zheng Yunyan's face flushed, and she lowered her head and said "hmm" softly.

Mrs. Du was delighted when she saw it, and said happily, "I didn't expect that I could drink Jin'er's wedding wine so soon. I must prepare my gift carefully."

Hua Wushuang held her big fat son and nodded continuously, saying, "Of course, my brother is getting married, so this gift is indispensable."

A group of people got on the carriage and headed towards the Duke's Mansion, talking and laughing.

The results of the entrance examination would not be available for about a month. During this period, Jinping was not idle. He asked someone to choose a good day and went to Prince Qing's mansion to propose marriage.

Although they didn't know the results, everyone tacitly avoided the topic of results, because everyone knew that even if Jin didn't do well in the exam, it wouldn't be difficult for him to get a job in the court with his abilities.

The date for Jinping's wedding was soon set, just half a month later.

Everyone felt that the time was too tight, after all, making a beautiful wedding dress would not be completed in a short time. But Jinping insisted on getting married in half a month.

I asked him why he was in such a hurry. Was he afraid that Zheng Yunyan would be snatched away by someone else, so he couldn't wait to marry her home?

Jinping said calmly, "If we get married now, we can have a baby in ten months, and then you will be able to see our baby before you leave."

This sentence was like a tear gas bomb, which made my tears fall immediately.

I thought all my wishes had been fulfilled and I could leave without any regrets, but how can the bond between people be broken so easily?

Soon the day of Jinping's wedding arrived.

The Duke's Mansion was decorated with lights and colors everywhere, and even the servants wore bright red dresses, making the entire Mansion look particularly festive.

The Duke's Mansion is getting married, and the Prince Qing's Mansion is giving away his daughter. This is a big happy event that is enough to make a sensation in the entire capital.

Almost all the dignitaries in the capital came to congratulate, and there were so many people in the Duke's Mansion that there was no room for everyone. Fortunately, with the help of Madam Du, dozens of servants were transferred over, so there was not too much chaos.

Even Zhao Fangping sent someone to deliver a gift. She knew that she couldn't hang around me, otherwise if something happened to me, Zheng Yan would definitely make trouble for her. So she thought of a set of excuses and sent someone to deliver a gift.

I didn't go to the front yard to join in the fun. Everyone knew that I was not feeling well, so no one dared to disturb me.

I sat quietly in the yard, listening to the noisy sounds outside, but my heart felt warm.

Yingchun was pregnant, but she still stayed by my side to serve me.

I asked Yingchun to stay in Jinping's Baijiyuan to bring happiness to Jinping and help Zheng Yunyan get pregnant earlier.

Yingchun and Yang went together, Yang went to help, while Yingchun went to add to the joy.

After the two of them left, my room suddenly became a lot quieter.
