Remarrying Chun Yuan

Chapter 59 The Big Wedding

Liu Yuechu really wanted to eat Yuan Cuo's noodles again, but after thinking about it carefully, she realized that one shouldn't go too far, and even a son-in-law shouldn't be treated like that.

Besides, she never saw him as a son-in-law, but rather as her hero...

Seven or eight days passed in this way, and the wedding was approaching.

Liu Yuechu moved into the Princess's mansion with her maids and servants. Tomorrow, Yuan Cuo will come to the Princess's mansion to fetch the bride.

"Can Sheng-ge carry you? If he can't, then let your Zhongyao-ge carry you to the sedan chair." Princess Chen was very worried. Liu Musheng had been like a lost soul these past few days, completely dazed.

Who would have thought that a spoiled brat would become a romantic? Liu Yuechu also didn't expect her older brother to be so persistent with Fang Yunqing. "He should be able to carry her. I had him try it yesterday." He did try, but he almost fell. Fortunately, Yuan Cuo was there to support him.

"He really took after your father, completely unreliable. Although your mother and I are best friends, what father would abandon all his children and go off to wander the world just because his wife passed away? Now that his daughter is getting married, we can't even find him to come back for the wedding!"

Princess Chen gets angry whenever this matter is brought up.

The old lady of the Liu family pretended to be sick and did not attend, deliberately embarrassing Liu Yuechu. The two uncles only wanted to see a joke and refused to sit in the high seat, claiming that they were only fit to watch the ceremony.

Although she and Old Master Zhuang were there to support them, they weren't from the Liu or Yan families after all. It was as if their marriage wasn't approved by their families, making them too easy targets for gossip.

"Isn't it better with you here? I wouldn't even want to bow if someone else were sitting in that spot!" Liu Yuechu said with a smile and a coquettish tone.

Princess Chen still felt wronged for Liu Yuechu, "I really don't know where Liu Zhong went. If I knew, I would definitely write eight letters a day to scold him!"

"You should save your energy and grow old with the Governor. My father doesn't deserve your concern!" Liu Yuechu said with a smile.

Princess Chen couldn't help but laugh, "That's true. If I really wrote eight letters a day, my husband would definitely be jealous."

"Second sister, the Li family's invitation has been returned."

Liu Muchi has been staying at the Princess's residence these past few days. His elder brother is unreliable, so as the younger brother, he has to make all the arrangements for his sister's wedding, which has taken him quite a while.

"How could Li Shu be so disappointing!"

Princess Chen knew that she was completely obsessed with Wei Gongming, and Madam Li was extremely distressed. She was also busy choosing a husband for her daughter, hoping to break her obsessive thoughts.

"It doesn't matter, come or not, I won't get married without her to add to my dowry." Liu Yuechu had already crossed Li Shu off her list of friends in her mind.

Princess Chen felt sorry for Liu Yuechu, so she had the maids dig out her dowry and give her many nice items.

Liu Yuechu smiled gratefully, knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times, calling Princess Chen "Mother".

She should have recognized this godmother in her past life; now is the perfect time.

……

The next day, ten miles of red bridal procession stretched across a thousand acres of fields. Liu Yuechu's dowry resembled a winding dragon, vast and boundless as far as the eye could see.

Because of the old-fashioned Chen Zhongyao, the Princess's mansion had always adhered to strict etiquette, making life rather dull and monotonous. But today, with Liu Yuechu's wedding taking place here, there was an unusually lively atmosphere with gongs and drums and firecrackers. The servants completely let loose and took the opportunity to have a good time!

"The groom is here to fetch the bride!"

A joyful shout drew cheers from the street.

Although there weren't many guests, Yuan Cuo had always provided free medical care to the people and distributed porridge during the snowfall in early June. Everyone in the capital who had benefited from this act remembered his kindness.

Now that the two are married, onlookers are naturally happy to offer their congratulations in the street.

Only one person stood in the corner, clearly dissatisfied; that was Wei Gongming.

Wei Gongming was not there to observe the ceremony, but to accompany Guan Shi and Tian Yayun to see a doctor.

He was drunk last night, and Tian Ya Yun, heavily pregnant, climbed into his bed. He kicked her instinctively, and the pain made her faint.

He woke up in the morning and found someone in the house, which caused chaos in the house.

It would be better if the doctor came to the mansion for a consultation, but Wei Gongming was unwilling to admit that Tian Yayun was related to him, and only asked Guan to bring a relative from the family to see the doctor under the pretext.

He was originally indignant that Yuan Cuo had married Liu Yuechu so easily and wanted to make a scene, but yesterday Qin Yongshang, who was by the Third Prince's side, suddenly came to him again.

He had warned the Third Prince to be wary of the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel long ago, but the Third Prince hadn't believed him at the time. However, yesterday, when the Third Prince learned that Vice Minister Fang had given his eldest daughter to the Crown Prince as a concubine, he flew into a rage and ordered Qin Yongshang to recall Wei Gongming.

Although this young man is of extremely poor character and acts recklessly, he has a very sharp eye and can be of some use. So the Third Prince gave Wei Gongming a chance, letting him interfere with the marriage of the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel in exchange for helping the Marquis of Zhenning's family turn the tables.

Wei Gongming knew this opportunity was hard-won, so he naturally wouldn't cause any more problems.

He watched as Yuan Cuo, dressed in his magnificent wedding attire, clasped his hands together in gratitude to those who offered their congratulations.

Did he think that marrying Liu Yuechu would bring him instant success like in his previous life? He'll show Yuan Cuo what a thorny path to officialdom is like; he'll never have an easy time.

At this moment, Yuan Cuo had no time to worry about those who secretly hated him.

He was no longer the aloof, ethereal figure he once was; now he smiled broadly, and his tall, elegant figure, adorned in bright red, was incomparably handsome and exceptionally alluring, causing many young women to secretly regret their actions.

How come I didn't realize he was so outstanding before?

Because he didn't smile when he took his pulse?

Princess Chen had given prior instructions, and Chen Zhongyao and his family gave Yuan Cuo a few simple questions before letting him enter the house to receive the bride.

Despite repeated warnings, Liu Musheng carried his younger sister out the door, his steps faltering and his body drenched in sweat, until finally Liu Yuechu sat safely in the bridal sedan chair without making a single mistake.

"The Minister of the Court of State Ceremonial has arrived!"

"The Vice Minister of Works has arrived!"

……

Today, the Liu family is the venue for the wedding, and Master Zhuang is sitting in the high seat. Naturally, his several favorite students will come to the Liu family to support the old master.

Yang Zhanchun also brought many students from the Imperial Academy to offer their congratulations.

These students from poor families would work at the Liu family's shop every few days to earn money for their studies. Now that the boss and his wife are getting married, how could they not come to celebrate?

There were few relatives and friends, but quite a few guests.

Liu Yuechu and Yuan Cuo then went through the wedding ceremony.

Sitting on the bridal bed, which was covered with dates, peanuts, longans, and melon seeds, Liu Yuechu felt a sharp pain. Their hair was tied up and then cut off with red scissors and put into a brocade pouch.

Yuan Cuo, jostled by the commotion, lifted his veil, only to find that the four corners were soaked with the sweat of his palms. He thought back carefully; even the day he learned of his parents' passing, he hadn't felt as nervous as he did today…

Liu Yuechu wore an exquisite phoenix coronet and a golden silk robe. The apple she was holding had been half-eaten on the way, before Fang Mama told her that it was inedible.

The flickering red candlelight made their cheeks burn.

Before Yuan Cuo could even take a good look at the bride and come up with a few words of praise, he was dragged out by the guests to drink...

"Wait for me, I'll be back soon."

When he returned, Yuan Cuo was completely drunk.

Liu Yuechu had already shed her heavy wedding robes and put on a red dress.

Her long, black hair cascaded down to her waist as she stared down at the drunkard lying on the bed.

"If you want to see, then see. Why peek?"
