"Yi, is now a good time? Qingyin said you're in charge of the couple's banquet, so I've come to get the guest list so I can make some preparations."

Taking advantage of Lin Yi's absence from the inspection tour, Jiang Yu quickly came to him to confirm the arrangements for the couple's wedding banquet. She needed to familiarize herself with the arrangements beforehand, as some elders and representatives from the three families would be attending, making it a very formal and grand occasion. Jiang Yu did not want to lose face on such a day.

"Yes, Xiaoyu, you've come at just the right time. I was just about to send this to you. Here is the list of visiting guests. I've already verified it. Please see if there are any people you would like to add. There's also a sample invitation attached to the list. Once it's confirmed, we can make the invitations and then send them out by messenger."

Lin Yi was sitting at his desk dealing with some business when he saw Jiang Yu come in. He quickly put on a bright smile and, after hearing Jiang Yu's purpose, picked up a dark green leather folder with gold lettering from his right side, stood up, and walked over to Jiang Yu.

"This is the arrangement of servants' positions for the day, this is the menu, please see if you need to add any dishes. And this green one is the arrangement of guest rooms." Lin Yi explained to Jiang Yu in detail, one by one.

"By the way, the tailor has already designed the dresses for our day. I had him design three sets, and they're all here. You can choose your favorite from them. Just let me know if you need any alterations. Also, please take a look at these forms and confirm them if you have time."

Seeing how meticulous and thoughtful Lin Yi, who is clearly a military general, was, Jiang Yu was completely impressed by the men in this world. They were all incredibly versatile.

"Please stop calling me 'you' and 'you' all the time, Yi. We're husband and wife now. You see, Qingyin doesn't need to use honorifics anymore. We only use them in public."

Jiang Yu quickly corrected him, then picked out the guest list from many lists, and then took the design draft of the dress with interest to look at it.

"Well, you can handle everything. You're definitely more thorough than me. I just want to get the guest list in advance so I can prepare. I don't want to make a mistake by mistaking someone for someone else. Wow, these dresses are so beautiful."

Lin Yi felt very happy about Jiang Yu's trust at this moment and even her unconscious intimacy. He invited Jiang Yu to sit down, prepared juice and tea for her, and looked at the design draft of the dress with her.

“Yes, I think any of these three outfits will look great on you. Look at this one, the shoulder design uses a lot of pearl tassels that hang all the way down to your ankles, it will definitely look gorgeous when you walk. And all of them are made with pearls that are abundant in our Hollandpur County, which can perfectly highlight your status as a lord.”

Jiang Yu looked at the design drawings in front of her. Each design drawing had three sets of clothing for one woman and two men, and the similarity in design and style was very similar, making them very matching couple outfits.

Because it was a wedding dress, it was extremely luxurious. The one Lin Yi mentioned, with pearl tassels on the shoulders, was the most magnificent of the three. Countless pearls were strung together to form a beaded curtain, creating beautiful patterns that draped over the shoulders, while long pearl tassels reached all the way to the ankles. It certainly looked very glamorous and displayed extreme wealth.

However, Jiang Yu felt that it was too ornate and looked quite heavy. So she looked at the other two sets and found one that looked slightly simpler, but the design was extremely ingenious.

"I quite like this outfit. Look, the skirt of this women's dress is decorated with pearl tassels, which makes it more understated, but it is still enough to show status. I also really like the collar, which is decorated with crystal coral carved into the shape of seashells and fish tails."

“Look, this decoration is also on your cuffs and belts. I also like this sparkly white gauze. It looks white on the surface, but when you walk and it reflects rainbow colors under the lights, it looks so beautiful. And you see, it looks a lot like the aurora borealis where Qingyin is. I think he will like it too.”

"This blue is the best looking color; it's not too dark, and it goes best with your blonde hair. It won't overshadow your sea-blue eyes."

After Jiang Yu finished her analysis with great excitement, she realized that Lin Yi hadn't said a word. She turned her head in confusion and saw that Lin Yi was staring at her intently, his eyes filled with a gentle smile.

"Little Yu was so cute just now." Lin Yi reached out and affectionately pinched the tip of Jiang Yu's nose, and was pleased to see Jiang Yu's face slowly turn red, starting from her ears.

"Hmm, Xiaoyu is even cuter now."

"Oh dear, Yi!" Jiang Yu was a little embarrassed and annoyed. Lin Yi always liked to say such witty things.

"Okay, okay, I'm not teasing you anymore. We'll make whichever outfit you like. This is the formal evening dress, the welcoming outfit for the day, and the loungewear for bed. The design drafts haven't arrived yet; I'll send them over for you to choose from when they do."

"No need, you can decide on the remaining sets yourself. I trust you."

Jiang Yu stood up, ready to leave, but Lin Yi gently pulled her back.

"Xiaoyu, I recently discovered a particularly beautiful flower field by the sea while I was patrolling the territory. I'd like to take you there. Would you like to come with me?"

"Sure, let's invite Qingyin sometime, bring some good food, and go on a picnic together." Jiang Yu was very interested at the idea.

"No, Xiaoyu, let's just go, okay?" Lin Yi pulled Jiang Yu closer to him, lowered his head and gently pressed his forehead against his wife's, his tone somewhat pitiful.

"Xiaoyu, you and Qingyin will have many more opportunities to travel together in the future, but after my wedding banquet, I will be sent by the Empire to be stationed in a military camp and will not be able to come home often. Can you spend some time with me?"

Jiang Yu hadn't yet adjusted to this sudden intimacy when she was captivated by the other's aggrieved voice. She involuntarily whispered her agreement. Lin Yi, pleased with the affirmation, picked up Jiang Yu, spun her around, and then set her down amidst her soft gasps.

"I'm so happy, Xiaoyu. Don't worry, I'll prepare everything and make sure you have a very enjoyable trip."
