New Return of the Pearl: The Group's Pet Swallow Flies

At this moment, the reception room was bustling with people! Fulun and his wife Liu Huiying had been waiting in the house for a long time, happily waiting for their son and daughter-in-law to return. When they heard the good news of the new arrival, their joy was beyond words. Their faces were as bright as flowers blooming in spring, with smiles hanging on their lips all the time.

At the same time, many friends and relatives of the Xiao family also came to the Bachelor's Mansion. They were excited and couldn't wait to witness the beautiful moment of Xiaoyanzi and her friends getting married.

Not only that, even the current emperor and the respected old Buddha and others came to the scholar's house in person. Everyone came here to witness this important moment with special significance.

You know, Xiao Zhihang is Xiaoyanzi's biological father, and the emperor is Ziwei's biological father; as for Fulun, he is the father of Erkang and Ertai. According to common sense, in this solemn wedding ceremony, the seat of honor should be held by the father of the newlyweds. However, at this moment, three fathers of noble status appeared, which really made people feel embarrassed.

Xiao Zhihang smiled and politely invited the emperor to take the seat of honor. The emperor thought for a moment and said that it would be more appropriate for Xiao Zhihang to take the seat. For a moment, the two of them were polite to each other, and the atmosphere seemed particularly harmonious and a little subtle.

Seeing this, Fulan, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but raise his hand to gently wipe away the fine beads of sweat oozing from his forehead. His eyes moved back and forth between the emperor and Xiao Zhihang, secretly wondering in his heart how to resolve this small "stalemate".

At this moment, Xiao Zhihang, who had been humble and polite and kept declining the seat, suddenly said, "Your Majesty, I feel it is my great honor to stand behind you and participate in this grand event." Hearing this, the emperor was slightly stunned, but then a barely perceptible smile appeared on his face. After all, as the current emperor, how could he really stand up and give up his seat? So, after a little thought, the emperor sat down on the main seat with Fulun.

Then, the emperor ordered his servants to add another chair and place it below him, and motioned Xiao Zhihang to sit there. In this way, everyone took their seats, and the scene seemed solemn and orderly.

As time went by, the night gradually deepened. The stars in the sky were shining like bright gems, as if they were also curiously watching this grand event on earth. And the moon, which had rested for a whole day, peeked out from behind the clouds with vigor and energy, and sprinkled the bright moonlight on the earth. At this moment, the courtyard below was brightly lit, and it was a lively scene.

"Bow to Heaven and Earth!" As the bridesmaid's high-pitched and melodious voice sounded, Erkang gently supported Ziwei, and the two slowly turned around and bowed deeply to the outside of the door. At the same time, Ertai on the other side was also carefully protecting Xiaoyanzi, and also bowed respectfully to the outside of the door. The two couples' movements were uniform, which looked particularly solemn and beautiful.

"Bow to your parents!" The bridesmaid's voice came again. Erkang gently helped Ziwei turn around, while Ertai carefully led Xiaoyanzi to turn around together. Then the four of them faced their parents, bent down in unison, and performed the ceremony respectfully. The guests present applauded and cheered, sending the most sincere blessings to the two couples.

"Husband and wife bow to each other!" With this shout, Erkang and Ziwei stood face to face. Ziwei's beautiful figure was covered tightly by the red veil. Although Erkang could not see her expression at the moment, he could deeply feel her inner tension and anxiety from her slightly trembling hands and the sweat oozing from her palms.

Erkang gently reached out his hand and gently held Ziwei's white and tender little hand, as if a warm current was instantly transmitted to her. He said in a subtle but caring voice: "Don't be afraid, I'm here." Ziwei seemed to be greatly comforted, and her originally tense body relaxed a little.

Then, as if they were in sync, they slowly bent down at the same time and bowed face to face. At this moment, time seemed to freeze, and the only sounds in the world were their breathing and heartbeats.

At the same time, Xiaoyanzi on the other side was experiencing the same moment. Although the veil on her head blocked her vision and prevented her from seeing Ertai's expression, she could still clearly hear Ertai's gentle whispers, telling her what to do next.

Xiaoyanzi thought to herself: "It's like a couple bowing to each other, so I just need to bow with Ertai!" Thinking of this, she nodded without hesitation, indicating that she understood. Then, she quietly waited for the best time, and when she felt Ertai start to move, she quickly followed and bowed solemnly with him face to face.

"Send them to the bridal chamber!" With the matchmaker's loud shout, the lively wedding ceremony finally came to a successful conclusion. Then, Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei were escorted to their respective bridal chambers by the crowd.

Mingyue and Hongshu followed Xiaoyanzi carefully, while Jinsuo and Caixia followed closely and served Ziwei. The faces of the four maids were filled with joy, and they were happy to accompany their princess to a new stage in life.

Qing'er and Ye Qingyu walked towards Xiaoyanzi's room happily, ready to accompany her through the difficult time of waiting for the groom. Mu Yunzhi and Liu Hong came to Ziwei with smiles, chatting with her about family matters and accompanying her to wait for the groom's arrival.

After the ceremony, the emperor, along with the Empress Dowager and other royal relatives and court officials, stayed at the scene and tasted the fine wine presented by the groom. Afterwards, they got up and returned to the palace, while the entire Bachelor's Mansion was immersed in a joyous and lively atmosphere.

Meanwhile, Erkang and Ertai were also very busy. Many friends and relatives surrounded them, urging them to drink and toasting, as if they would not stop until they got the two young masters drunk. Poor Erkang and Ertai, even if they had a good alcohol tolerance, they could not withstand such a barrage of drinks! Before long, the two were already dizzy, staggering, and could hardly walk in a straight line.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Xiao Feng and others hurried forward to dissuade everyone and ordered the servants to help the two young masters go back to their rooms to rest. After all, today is a big day, and we must not let drinking ruin the wedding night of the bride!

Meanwhile, Lord Fulun and the rest of the family stayed to entertain the guests. Erkang and Ertai, supported by the servants, slowly left the reception room. When they walked through the winding corridor and finally arrived at the inner courtyard, the two suddenly looked at each other. Surprisingly, at this moment, there was no sign of drunkenness in their eyes. On the contrary, there was a sly light flashing in their eyes. Then, the two smiled knowingly at the same time, and then turned around and walked towards their own rooms...
