1.001 The woman will marry
The red hijab covered the sight in front of him, the step swaying hanging on his ears swayed gently with the movement of the sedan chair, the red wedding dress was wrapped, and Su Heng lowered his head and stroked the ornaments on the wedding dress - the treasure is wishful, and the dragon and phoenix are auspicious.
This wedding dress is carefully created by the best embroidery girl in Beijing, from the beginning of her hands, she doesn't know how many times she has rubbed the ornaments on it, almost to imprint those patterns in her heart, the Xipa twisted in her hand is embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water, the palms are slightly sweaty, Su Heng only feels that his body is floating and heavi, and he doesn't know where he is going.
On the eve of the woman's wedding, the custom was to sleep with her mother, and last night's mother Xu's private words with her were still in her ears, Su Heng suddenly felt that the sedan chair she was in at the moment was a little too narrow, making her feel that she couldn't breathe smoothly - some of her face was red and her ears were red, and her heartbeat became so fast, as if she was about to jump out of her chest, and even her body felt a little shameful heat and paralysis.
Thinking of the man who was about to become her husband, Xue Muqing, Su Heng lowered his head and felt more and more shy.
Quietly probed, only to feel that her cheeks were hot, and the small stove to warm her hands had been placed aside by her, and the bitter cold of this winter could not stop her from the heat of being a wife.
Even if she couldn't see the scene outside the sedan chair, she could guess how lively it was outside just by the sound.
The grandson of Zuo Xiangsu Hui, who is married to the champion of the new department, and even more married by His Majesty - such a scenery, how can it not attract everyone to watch, just to witness this rare ten-mile red makeup?
Yes, ten miles of red makeup, she wants to marry him, naturally she wants to marry beautifully, from the palace test after she saw him riding a horse in Kyoto, she decided that he is her lover in this life, so she will abandon the rare reserve, cheekily begged her father to say to her grandfather, begged her mother to ask the queen for grace, I only hope that they can fulfill her heart.
Now that her wish has come true, she is naturally happy - she is about to become Xue Muqing Xue Zhuangyuan's wife......
"Si Qin-" softly called her personal maid, who was also her dowry maid: "How long will it take to arrive at Xue's house?" "After Xue Muqing was the champion of high school and His Majesty gave him a mansion, not far from the Su family, she had secretly measured it countless times in her heart, why did she do it for a long time, and she hadn't arrived yet.
"Miss, it's going to be soon," it was so noisy outside, and his voice was very low, Si Qin might not be able to hear it, he thought that no one answered, but the voice of another maid Si Qi quickly sounded outside the sedan chair, and his voice was brisk: "Miss, don't worry, we swam around the city before, so it will take some work." Miss, you don't see it, it's lively outside. β
Xi Niang also smiled outside and said that she would not miss the auspicious time, let Su Heng be relieved, etc.
"Who's in a hurry." Su Heng said lightly, but her face became more and more red, and she continued to wring the Xipa in her hand, her heart was numb, but it was not good to ask again, for fear that everyone would know that she was anxious.
After a while, the wedding sedan chair stopped, and the bride reminded Su Heng and said, "Miss, don't move first, you can't get down until the groom shoots the sedan chair." β
Su Heng didn't respond, her mother told her about it, she wasn't in a hurry, she knew what was going on outside, and after a short time, she heard the cheers of the people outside, and the corners of Su Heng's mouth rose slightly - her husband, who is not only a champion talent, is naturally proficient in the six arts, just shooting a sedan chair, it is difficult to think about him, listening to the sound outside, you can imagine how beautiful he is outside.
The wedding sedan chair leaned forward slightly, and the wedding lady's voice sounded: "Miss, you can get off the sedan chair." Between speaking, the sedan chair had also stabilized, and Su Heng felt that there was more light under the red hijab, but the sedan curtain was lifted, and the sedan chair was lifted, and the hand of the bride stretched out, Su Heng hurriedly put his hand on it, and the bride and the siqin chess helped him get out of the sedan chair.
Someone handed over one end of the red color ball, Su Heng took it and gently held it in his hand, and the other end was also pinched, thinking that it was the groom's official. Su Heng didn't think of a sentence - holding the hand of the son and growing old with the son, and his face turned red again in an instant...... Fortunately, everyone should not be able to see it, just as she can't see everyone's faces.
The hijab covered his eyes, Su Heng couldn't see his appearance, he only saw the hem of his champion robe from below, and his heart that had been hanging for a day suddenly settled down.
Feeling that he was being dragged forward, when there were steps or thresholds, Xi Niang and the two big girls would gently remind Su Heng in his heart, this day is particularly important, and naturally he is always careful, and he will never make a difference.
One worships heaven and earth, the second worships the high hall, the husband and wife worship, and sends them to the cave room.
Su Heng, who was sitting on the bed, still had the feeling of being in a dream until this moment - now that Licheng is ready, she is already Xue Muqing's wife?
"Miss, do you want to eat something to fill your stomach first? My uncle is feasting in the front hall, but I'm afraid I won't be able to come back for a while. Si Qin poured a cup of tea for her, and after a while, she touched the wall of the cup and her hands were not hot, and then lifted the corner of the hijab slightly and served her to drink.
However, Su Heng only took a sip and refused to use it again, his eyes looked at the red dates, peanuts, longan, and lotus seeds on the bed from under the hijab, and remembered the auspicious words that Xi Niang was chanting while sprinkling these things, and couldn't help but avoid his gaze and blushed again: "No need." "After being busy for a long time, she eats very little, but she doesn't feel hungry at all.
Si Qiyin quipped: "Sister Siqin, you don't know, Miss is only afraid that she is very happy at the moment, where can she care about whether she is hungry or not - speaking of which, our uncle is really good-looking, Miss Wei Dao never forgot it after seeing her, and now she finally has her wish come true, I heard that there are other young ladies in Beijing who are interested in him, but none of them have the dignity of Miss to get married to His Majesty, Miss is really blessed to envy others!" β
"You girl!" Su Heng was happy in his heart, but he refused to admit it, and he couldn't move in his wedding dress, so he had to say softly: "I don't have to make it up, see how I clean you up tomorrow!" β
"Miss spare your life!" Si Qi hurriedly smiled and begged for mercy: "The slave knows that it is wrong, Miss, you treat the slaves and maids best on weekdays, this is a good day for the young lady, and I guess I will not worry about it with the slave and the maid like this-Miss must have deliberately scared the slave and the maid, Sister Siqin, did you say?" The slave maid also dared to let loose her desire to touch the joy of the young lady when she saw that the young lady was in a good mood today, so please spare the slave and the maid, and the slave and the maid would not dare again. β
Su Heng also knew that Si Qi had always been temperamental, just joking, not angry, but looking at her series of words still made Su Heng's uneasiness dissipate a little, so he didn't care about her anymore, then hesitated for a moment, and then mentioned in his heart: "Which of you went out to see how the banquet in front of you is doing." β
"There are all foreign men in front, and it's not easy for us to get over," Si Qin smiled and pointed out the mistakes in Su Heng's words, but he also knew what she was thinking, and reassured: "Miss, don't worry, the slave maid asked Xiang Mother to look at someone?" "Xiang's mother is Su Heng's nurse, and she also married with Su Heng, this situation is indeed a cheaper woman.
Su Heng blushed: "You don't have to go...... He...... I'm coming back anyway. Looking at people will make people think that she is going to urge the groom to come back, Su Heng feels that she has a thin face...... If others think she can't wait for the cave room......
"Then the slave will accompany the young lady to talk," Si Qin pulled Si Qi over: "Si Qi, aren't you the most clever on weekdays?" Why don't you tell Miss what you've been watching today? β
A few people joked for a while, and then they quieted down.
β
After waiting for a long time before hearing the sound of someone coming, Su Heng hurriedly sat upright, Si Qin was busy to see if there was any mess on her body to help her smooth it out, but Si Qi hurriedly stepped forward and helped the person who came, and his tone was quite courteous: "Uncle has drunk too much wine?" Do you want to drink some hot tea to sober up the wine first? β
"I didn't drink too much. Don't bother. "Su Yu has only seen his appearance from afar, and has never heard his voice, so this is Xue Muqing's voice? Su Yu secretly said in his heart that this voice was very calm and very good, and as soon as he was distracted, Xue Muqing had already walked up to her, took the joy table from Xi Niang's hand, and picked off the hijab on Su Yu's head, Su Yu looked at Xue Muqing's face, and when she looked closer, she still felt that this face looked very pleasing to the eye, and it was the face she was thinking about, and she unconsciously blushed again.
Xi Niang Wu said nice words on the side, let the two of them drink the wine, the wine has no sense of alcohol, but on the wedding night, I like to use it to make the wine, that is, to take its "acacia" meaning, last night my mother also mentioned it, thinking of what will happen next, Su Yu became more and more nervous, holding Xipa's hand into a ball, the finger bones were white, and the palms were slightly sweaty.
Xi Niang said auspicious words for a while, seeing that it was not early, Si Qin blushed and came over to help Su Yu with a wide coat, and Si Qi went to serve Xue Muqing, Su Yu let Si Qin fiddle with himself crampedly, and occasionally glanced at Xue Muqing's side, seeing that he had no expression on his face, he was always a little uneasy for some reason.
Let Si Qin take off the thick makeup on his face, and untie his hair accessories and clothes, until his body is stripped of only a profane clothes, which is obviously a usual thing to do on weekdays, but today he feels extremely charming, and he always feels all kinds of uncomfortable, although he is still wearing a single clothes, but he has never been in front of anyone other than a maidservant - especially a man, Su Yu still feels that he doesn't even know how to place his hands and feet.
Si Qin and Si Qi are still the girls who have nothing to do in the end, and they are also a little embarrassed at the moment, but they still smile, push the two together, and say auspicious words with everyone, and then they packed up the wedding bed and retreated, leaving the happy room for the two newcomers.
Su Yu looked at Xue Muqing by candlelight, he was just like her, there was only a single coat left on his body, the single clothes were close to the body, and the body under the clothes was faintly visible, thin and flat, but it didn't look like a weak scholar who was powerless, Su Yu saw for the first time that the man's chest was flat, which was very different from the woman, from the slightly open neckline upwards, it was a slender neck, and there was an Adam's apple above the neck that moved gently with Xue Muqing's breathing, swallowing and gently moving, and it was a different place from the woman, Su Yu's eyes glanced lightly at the place below Xue Muqing's waist and abdomen, quickly retracted it, and her face turned pale - the painting that her mother gave her last night and the appearance of the two unclothed dolls flashed through her mind, and she quickly suppressed the scene and looked up at Xue Muqing's face.
The chin without a beard, the thin lip shape, and the stiff nose - she had already imagined and described it countless times, but at this moment it was really in front of her eyes, but she didn't dare to stretch out her hand, and went up, looking at Xue Muqing's gaze, seeing that he was also looking at herself, she hurriedly turned her face away, Su Yu didn't know what he was going to do next-although she had been mentioned before, but Su Yu was still a yellow flower girl, those things...... After all, it was unfamiliarβI had to keep my eyes out of his too clear gaze.
Xue Muqing didn't move, just staring at her from the beginning, thoughtful look, Su Yu didn't know what he was thinking, but he also knew that it was not right to sit and look at each other like this, so he had to stammer: "Xue-Fu...... Husband, we ...... Let us rest in peace. "Mother said, ** a moment is worth a thousand gold, but it can't be delayed.
Xue Muqing nodded indifferently, Su Yu was a little uneasy, and the maids were not around...... Glancing at him, she helped him to bed very nervously. Through the thin clothes, accidentally touched the warmth on his body, but Su Yu hurriedly withdrew his hand as if he had been burned, and hid in the corner, only blindly lowering his head, his cheeks were hot, and he didn't dare to look at him again.
Xue Muqing put down the double curtain tent, and the small space suddenly became dark and unclear. The world outside is cut off, and it seems that even breathing has become stagnant.
That's fine...... Su Yu thought, in this case, he should not be able to see her blushing.
In the small space, it seemed that even each other's breathing and heartbeat could be heard, Su Yu lay down very uneasily, and when Xue Muqing's body was close to hers, she felt an unprecedented sense of oppression and panic.
What happened after that...... Although her mother had also taught and said that it would hurt, Su Yu never expected it to be so painful, and her body seemed to be torn apart, but she only endured it alive.
Xue Muqing didn't say much, no, since he came in, except for the eight words he replied when Si Qi asked him at the beginning, and he didn't speak since. She asked him something, and he just nodded, and now it was dim in the tent, and she couldn't see his movements and expressions at all, and she asked something, and she didn't know if he nodded or shook his head.
Beneath his gentle and gentle appearance, he was like this......
The mother said that after marrying a man, the husband is the woman's heaven, and she must abide by the three obedience and four virtues, and there can be no half-point difference, no matter what the husband does, it is right.
So even if it's painful, it's a process she should go through.
This is the process of becoming someone else's wife, and even if it hurts, you have to endure it.
Maybe it was the wine that started to work, Su Yu felt that her body was not so painful, and she also felt the heat on Xue Muqing's body, Su Yu was a little overwhelmed and couldn't ignore it, his sweat dripped on her chest, his skin ironed her and clinged to her, as if he could burn her skin, her eyes gradually became blurry and immersed.
Blocked by heavy curtains, the tent was dim, she couldn't see the look on his face clearly, so she could only respond softly: "Husband, husband-"
Over and over again, after the pleasure, Xue Muqing's breathing quickly calmed down, but he didn't get up, and in the dark night, neither of them spoke, but was relatively silent.
Su Yu suddenly came to his senses, and suddenly wondered if at this moment, between the bed, his eyes were still so clear, like an autumn lake, like a mirror, leaving no half of dust, but reflecting her wolf in the dark night.
She was emotional, but he was not. He is too calm, like the cool breeze of this early winter, so that he will not frostbite, but he will be sober enough to see himself clearly.
Stopped at this time, the pain in his body began to turn, even if he bit his lip tightly, his lips seemed to be bitten, and he faintly felt the sweetness of blood coming from the tip of his tongue, but he still couldn't stop the pain from his body, and finally, Su Yu couldn't bear it anymore and passed out.
In a daze, I heard someone talking in my ear, a man's voice, who was it? What to say? Even between the previous beds, he didn't say much, and after she fell asleep, he seemed to talk more.
As if calling her, there seemed to be some chagrin in his voice, as if he was asking her what was wrong, and he vaguely heard someone pronounce a voice that seemed to be a person's name - "Chu Qing".
By the way, it's Xue Muqing...... Her husband. They have just performed the ceremony of husband and wife, he is her husband, she is his wife, and the Ming media is marrying, worthy of the name. The people of the entire capital saw their wedding, and even more so, it was as solid as a rock.
"The first sunshine, the first sunshine." His voice murmured, whispering in her ear, the heat invading her earlobe, the crispy numbness that lingered for a long time.
"Chu Qing, Chu Qing, it's me who can't stand you."
Su Yu suddenly felt so cold. The chill from the bottom of her heart almost froze her limbs.
Perhaps, it's just that the winter is too cold, although October is a sunny winter, but in the end it is still stained with the word "winter", and where can it be warm.
Su Yu comforted herself, but she still couldn't help but think nonsense.
Chu Qing, Chu Qing, who is it?
I don't know why, I know that such a thought shouldn't be born, but Su Yu can't help but think about it that way-
He must ...... I was a little annoyed with her.
This marriage was forced by her and forced by the Su family to reach it.
In the final analysis, she was forced to marry him, I heard that at that time, His Majesty had intended to recruit him as a concubine, and several county lords of the clan also belonged to Xue Muqing, but he was the first to get there, Su Hui was the left minister, and he was the minister of His Majesty's humerus, plus his mother and the queen were cousins, Su Heng and the current prince are still cousins, and the queen mother and her grandmother were good sisters in the past.
Although the Xue family is also a prominent family in Beijing, although there has never been a person who has been a prominent person in recent years, his reputation is a little low, and he is not as good as the Su family - and Xue Muqing's branch is just a broken side branch.
Su Hui married Xue Muqing is indeed a low marriage, but if he originally intended to marry Princess Shang, Su Su is indeed a bit of a gap - although Su Hui is in the limelight, but the Su family does not have a title, not to mention the rules handed down by the Su family from their ancestors, there are rules that children and grandchildren cannot take concubines, she is the youngest daughter of Su Hui's only son, a beloved daughter, the only daughter in the family, and has been favored since childhood, and the family can't wait to hold her in the palm of their hands on weekdays for fear of bumping into it, how can her grandfather be willing to let her be idle by his wife and concubine after marriage, Since he told Xue Muqing not to take a concubine. Although Xue Muqing is a top talent, in terms of officialdom, he is a fledgling in the world, and if he wants to have a smooth career, he will not offend his legitimate Yue family, but he has to rely on Su Hui to deal with it in many ways, so there is no reason not to agree - but he is somewhat unwilling, right?
Su Yu is not a person who is raised in the deep boudoir and does not know anything about foreign affairs, she was carried away by the joy of getting married before, and she has never studied these problems in detail, but when she thinks about it at this moment, she feels frightened, not to mention, on the wedding night, her husband is talking about another woman's name in his heart.
It's just that the wood has been completed, from today on, she is his wife alone, and he should also be her husband alone, forever married, growing old together, raising the case with eyebrows, respecting each other like guests, a hundred years of good together, and giving birth to a noble son early - countless auspicious words sounded in my mind, as if I had to do this, in order to suppress the deep uneasiness in my heart.
She finally fulfilled her wish, even if she was suspected of forced marriage, but she did not regret it.
If she misses Xue Muqing, she will be hated for life, right?
