My sister must marry someone else? Why are you crying when I marry the King of War?
Chapter 5 Sisters Getting Married
How could Gu feel at ease with such a document in her hands? If things got out of hand, Gu would lose face.
Since she had dared to talk to Gu about this matter yesterday, Gu should have known her attitude and would not trust her.
In fact, Lin Yulan had no intention of using the document to make a scene. If she did, Gu would not admit it immediately, and then they would have to argue about it. She was the daughter and Gu was the stepmother, so she would lose morally. It would be ugly and would not do her any good.
This is a tactic that kills one thousand enemies but injures eight hundred of your own people.
She didn't have much, and she was reluctant to sacrifice her reputation easily.
What she did yesterday was a gamble that Gu couldn't stand being stabbed in the back by Lin Yuwei, and that Gu would become discouraged and negative.
It turned out that she won the bet.
"Don't worry, Ma'am. I will give the document to mother on the day I get married. If I lie, I will end up with a marital conflict, childless, and destitute for the rest of my life."
It was extremely cruel to say this on the eve of the wedding.
Aunt Zhang was horrified when she heard this, and said angrily, "Young Miss, please keep your word."
"Mammy, don't you know me? How dare I lie to my mother?"
Nanny Zhang said, “Haha!” and thought to herself, you are almost pissing the lady off to death, and yet you still say such generous words.
In the blink of an eye, it was the day for the sisters to get married.
On this day, the Lin Mansion was decorated with lights and was crowded with guests.
The guests congratulated her with a smile, but in private they were all puzzled and even joked about it. They really didn't understand why the two sisters' husbands' families were like that.
"To be honest, the marriages of these two sisters should be switched!"
"That's right. I really don't know what Gu is thinking."
"Gu actually loves her concubine's daughter so much? It's rare."
"Oh, you are such a joke..."
Gu entertained the guests with a smile on her face, but she was already furious in her heart. Every now and then she heard one or two words of confusion and doubt like these, which made her heart ache.
What can she do? She doesn't want to!
Gu was not feeling well, and Lin Yuwei was also upset.
She had overestimated her own patience. After all, she had always been better than Lin Yulan in everything. But today, when she got married, whether it was the grand wedding reception, the amount of dowry, or even the wedding dress, she was far better than Lin Yulan.
Those relatives and friends also changed their previous praise and friendliness towards her, and turned to fawning over that bitch Lin Yulan, saying all kinds of auspicious and congratulatory words without asking for any money.
What about her? It was just a perfunctory response.
She cursed in her heart, and could only use the future glory and wealth to cheer herself up again and again.
Fortunately, her face was covered by a bright red veil, so no one could see her gloomy and angry expression. Otherwise, she really didn't know how she would pretend to be festive.
"The bride is getting into the sedan!"
The matchmaker called out cheerfully and clearly, and the joy became even more lively and boiling. Lin Yulan was supported and stepped into the bridal sedan step by step.
"Get up the sedan!"
The curtain of the sedan chair dropped and the sedan chair swayed gently. Lin Yulan took a deep breath and listened to the joyful sounds outside the sedan chair and the guests' boiling laughter. In this life, she did not have the panic of her previous life, nor did she have the determination to start over and live a good life. In this life, what she wanted was a relaxed and comfortable life without worrying about anything.
If she were to live her life over again, she would live for herself in a relaxed manner.
After getting off the sedan chair, entering the hall, bowing, and being escorted to the bridal chamber, Lin Yulan sat upright on the wedding bed in the new room of the Wuwei Marquis Mansion with her hands folded in front of her.
Finally, the dust has settled!
The sound of hurried footsteps approached, the door of the bridal chamber was pushed open, and a group of women rushed in laughing and chatting.
According to the customs of the Qin Dynasty, after the newlyweds have paid homage to heaven and earth and the bride has been sent to the bridal chamber, the groom will go out to entertain the guests, and the female relatives and children of the husband's family will go to the bridal chamber to keep the bride company for a while.
Although the veil is not lifted, it does not prevent everyone from chatting and laughing around the bride. This is also a goodwill expression from the husband's family to the bride, which calms the bride's nervous mood and relaxes her.
"What a dignified bride!"
"Yes, as expected of a daughter of a scholarly family, her demeanor is different."
"Our Lord is so blessed!"
This sentence was three parts goodwill, three parts teasing, and four parts ambiguity, causing everyone to look at each other and laugh with their hands covering their mouths.
While they were laughing and joking, something was suddenly thrown onto Lin Yulan's folded hands, and everyone was startled.
"Ah! Snake! It's a snake!"
"Ah! Help!"
Lin Yulan was also shocked, but what kind of monsters and storms had she not seen in her previous life?
If she was really a seventeen-year-old girl raised in the backyard, she would have been so scared that she would have screamed and lost her composure.
But she's not.
Lin Yulan's body was startled reflexively. After taking a closer look, she smiled and said softly, "This toy is really well made. It would be scary if you weren't careful! Whose toy is it?"
This toy snake is made of thumb-sized pieces of wood that have been polished to be very round and smooth. The snake's head is slightly open, revealing a bright red tongue. The eyes are painted with black pen, and the pieces move with a slight flick. It is really exquisite.
A boy about eight or nine years old ran over and snatched his toy snake away like it was his treasure. He said with some disappointment that his prank had failed: "Why aren't you afraid? Qiaodie and I made a bet that you would be frightened! You made me lose the bet, humph!"
Wuwei Marquis Shao Xun's second aunt, Fu Shi, the current head of the inner house of the Marquis's mansion, hurriedly smiled and said, "Xiaoyi, stop messing around and come here!"
As soon as the words came out, everyone was stunned, and Fu herself came back to her senses and froze slightly.
If she hadn't jumped out and spoken so quickly, everyone might not have remembered so quickly that one of her personal maids was called Qiaodie.
Who doesn't know about these things happening in the inner house?
Without her words, or without doing things according to her wishes, would Qiaodie dare to do this?
Fu's face suddenly turned red.
"That damned girl Qiaodie is really outrageous. She actually made such a joke. Don't worry, niece-in-law. I will definitely punish her severely and give her an explanation!"
Lin Yulan curled her lips and whispered softly: "It's just a joke, it's okay."
She didn't want to meddle in other people's business. Besides, it would be inappropriate to meddle in other people's business at this time.
Seeing that she had lightly revealed the matter, Fu couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief and hurriedly said with a smile: "Well, well, well, my niece-in-law is indeed dignified, generous, polite and kind!"
Some of the relatives were relieved while others were disappointed as they had been waiting for the show. Happy days are always peaceful and festive, so they soon started laughing and chatting again.
Many sensible and steady people couldn't help but feel a certain fondness and admiration for Lin Yulan, and wanted to make friends with her, so they became more enthusiastic and friendly.
Fu was very upset. She wanted to embarrass the newly-appointed marquis and make her a laughing stock. Her unscrupulous nephew would also blame Lin for the embarrassment and complain about her.
Their discord is naturally good for the second wife.
Pity......
