Chapter 12 The "Pingshui" Marriage
Lu Mansion put up the lights, and a month later ushered in a happy event, only once was the marriage set by the second son early, and finally ushered in the wedding date.
Yuan Muqing was worried that her mother-in-law would not be able to keep busy, so she went back to Lu Mansion last night to help, she knew the etiquette after experiencing it once, and she prepared it in an orderly manner, and constantly adjusted the arrangement of seats and maids according to her previous experience.
Mrs. Lu watched her eldest daughter-in-law take over everything, and she was so happy that she was helped back to the room to rest.
Yuan Muqing was busy until late before he went back to the room to rest, Lu Qingfeng was reluctant to her, and also accompanied her back to Lu Mansion.
Lu Qingfeng touched his little wife's face, he had only been married to her for a few days, and he had lost weight, could it be that he had eaten too much soft rice, he must have dealt with those bad guys early, lest Qing'er work all day.
On the wedding day of Lu Qingping and Su Shuiyan, the old lady of the Lu family took enough of her mother-in-law's shelf, and the ladies of other mansions came to congratulate her, and the old lady no longer had to greet her back and forth, because her capable eldest daughter-in-law was properly entertaining.
In fact, it's not that the old lady is on the shelf, it's that she really has nothing to do, so she can only drink the tea of the new daughter-in-law like a mascot, and her heart is happy. Finally got through this day with the old man.
And on Yuan Muqing's side, she didn't know herself, her mother-in-law introduced it, and she actually sorted out so many ladies one by one, some of whom she hadn't seen last time, and Mama Bai was also tactful on the side, which can be said to be a joy for the guests and hosts.
Those ladies who watched the show at the garden party last time heard Fang Manzhu say that Yuan Muqing was useless, but at today's banquet, the prime minister's wife not only greeted the guests at the door and treated people kindly, but also accurately called out the ladies of each province, and there was no mistake in etiquette or anything.
The lady who didn't intervene when she watched the play last time only said that she was okay and didn't offend anyone, Miss Fang said that the Yuan family was not worthy of the Lu family, it seems that they are all yellow-mouthed children, full of nonsense, and it is the right way for me to flatter the prime minister's wife.
Yuan Muqing greeted the ladies of the various mansions at the door, and sure enough, Lord Fang was suspended for investigation, and Mrs. Fang had no face to come out to socialize, but asked someone to send a congratulatory gift, Yuan Muqing was too lazy to open it and look at it, and felt that the time was about the same, so he arranged to pick up the kiss.
The welcoming team came to the door of the Lu Mansion, Lu Qingfeng took Yuan Muqing's hand, and watched Lu Qingping and Su Shuiyan enter the door with a red ribbon, and the two of them looked at each other and smiled, as if they remembered the day they got married.
After three rounds of banquet wine, Yuan Muqing stole a free time to rest, and happened to see Lu Qingfeng talking to people in the garden, she didn't know whether to step forward to speak, so she stood in place and waited silently.
Suddenly saw Lu Qingfeng raise his hand to call her, and the person in front of him also looked at Lu Qingfeng's line of sight, it was a man with a flashy and luxurious atmosphere all over his body, unlike Lu Qingfeng's introverted and low-key feeling, this young boy was full of flamboyance and disregard for rules.
Yuan Muqing walked over slowly, Lu Qingfeng grabbed her with one hand, brought it to his side, and introduced the person in front of him with the other hand.
"Madam, this is Nan-sama." Lu Qingfeng introduced it seriously, Yuan Muqing was also the first time to see this Nanda, look carefully, he was wearing a golden silk dark purple python robe, full of luxury, but when he thought of the congratulatory gift he gave when he was married, Yuan Muqing was unhappy and didn't want to deal with this person.
"Madame really has an extraordinary temperament, I don't know if Madame liked the congratulatory gift last time?" Nan Yitian looked Yuan Muqing up and down, he didn't expect that the daughter of General Yuan in Beijing had such a good temperament, no wonder Lu Qingfeng looked at it so strictly.
Yuan Muqing wanted to keep her mouth shut, but she didn't expect this Nan Yi Tian to be really shameless, and she was even more angry in her heart.
"Nan Daren, my husband and wife are newly married, Nan Daren sent four beautiful concubines, the little girl is very uncomfortable, I have not received any good etiquette education since I was a child, my behavior is vulgar, and I sold a few concubines to the Qinglou in a fit of anger. Please also ask Nan-sama not to be angry with me and my husband because of a few cheap maids. ”
Yuan Muqing respectfully apologized "tremblingly".
The capital has been saying that her father is a martial artist, although she is unhappy, but she is too lazy to defend, she doesn't want to depict it more and more black, today I met Nan Yitian, but she lied confidently, saying that she had never learned etiquette, and she was "vulgar" and justified.
In fact, it was Ye Zi who inquired with Kuang Lu, and Yuan Muqing knew that a few maids were sold to the Qinglou, and she still felt that the four women were pitiful, but after thinking about it, it was better to let them fend for themselves as soon as possible, maybe they could be more comfortable.
Lu Qingfeng looked at his little wife, he could only think that the rabbit was in a hurry and biting, and he felt that she was defending herself in and out of her words, and she didn't suffer in front of Nan Yitian, he put his hands behind his back and was happy to watch the play.
"Madame is merciful, it must be that they have not served the good minister, if they are in my house, they will not be left alive." Nan Yitian put his hand on his neck, leaned forward, and made the appearance of sealing his throat, which was vicious and terrifying.
But what kind of person is Yuan Muqing, her father is a general of the dynasty, and she has seen a lot of stories about licking blood from the tip of the knife, if other ladies in the boudoir hear these vicious words, they will definitely be frightened.
"Nanda, I'm a little woman, I can't do your killing, you really scared me when you said this." Yuan Muqing pulled Lu Qingfeng's hand behind his back as he spoke, and he was about to take his "scared" little wife into his arms and pat her back decently.
Nan Yitian laughed heartily, looking at the woman hiding in her husband's arms in front of her, but her eyes were very calm and not half afraid, the prime minister's wife seemed to be really unfathomable.
Nan Yitian took the queen mother as the backstage, and could have called for wind and rain in the court, although the emperor was pro-government, but his wings were not full.
After the Queen Mother acquiesced to Lu Qingfeng as the prime minister, the prime minister relied on his father's old power to recruit a group of pedantic ministers who resisted the Queen Mother's participation in politics, making it difficult for Nan Yitian to move an inch in the court.
Here, Lu Qingping finally escaped the glass of wine handed over at the banquet, and finally returned to the new house.
The red curtain decorates the new house very much, and the happy words posted everywhere make Lu Qing unable to tell whether it is a dream or reality, and Su Shuiyan is sitting in the center of all dreams.
Slowly walked into the happy bed, the retro carvings, this is what Lu Qingping deliberately found in the various shops under his hands, every object he placed in the new house has been considered for a long time, like a poem and composition, disassembled and put on and on word by word, for fear that Su Shuiyan will be a little dissatisfied.
Su Shuiyan sat on the happy bed, although others couldn't see her face with this red hijab, but she also lowered her head shyly, hearing the footsteps getting closer and closer, she pinched her fingers, nervous.
The moment Lu Qingping lifted the hijab, he saw Su Shuiyan, who was bowing her head and being shy, in a red wedding dress, her face was even whiter, and when she raised her eyes, a pair of big watery eyes looked straight into Lu Qingping's heart, and he felt more and more itchy in his heart.
The wedding dress is made by the floating begonia and Pingyun Zhai, the female embroiderer of the floating begonia is a first-class good hand in Beijing, and Pingyun Zhai prefers to bring forth the new, the cut and style of the wedding dress are deeply liked by the brides, and since Pingyun Zhai and the floating begonia joined hands, this is still the first wedding dress, and they really take their strengths.
Sister Yuan's vision is really good, looking at Lu Qing looking straight at her eyes, Su Shuiyan is secretly happy in her heart.
Lu Qingping looked at Su Shuiyan, and became more and more unable to tell whether this immortal-like person was a dream or a reality, although he skillfully pushed away a lot of wine, he was still drunk.
Lifting Su Shuiyan's chin, Lu Qingping couldn't restrain the itch in his heart anymore with the strength of the wine, and quickly kissed it, the expected softness and sweetness, Lu Qingping smiled unconsciously.
Su Shuiyan was suddenly kissed, her whole body stiffened, and she was nervous, and she subconsciously pushed him away.
Lu Qingfeng was pushed stunned and sat up straight, trying to regain his senses, secretly laughing at himself for being too abrupt, so rude, it was difficult to hide the loss in his eyes.
"It's okay, if you're not ready, we can ......"
When Su Shuiyan heard this, she was even more embarrassed. When she got married, her parents asked her if she wanted to marry Lu Qingfeng, she was afraid of the cold Lu brother, and felt that although Lu Qingping was a younger brother, he was kind and gentle, and his talent was not inferior to his eldest brother.
At that time, my father was friendly with Lu's father, and soon the relationship between the two families was decided. Su Shuiyan didn't know if her father persuaded Lu's father, or if Lu Qingping agreed to this family affair for the sake of the relationship between the two families.
Since their family affairs were decided, she didn't know how to determine Lu Qingping's intentions, so she made things difficult for Lu Qingping everywhere, and he always followed her wishes. In the eyes of outsiders, Lu Qing is a humble gentleman, tolerates her childish temper, and indulges her in every way.
But Su Shuiyan has never felt Lu Qingping's heart, although she is well loved, but she would rather Lu Qingping lose her temper with herself, rather than let him do everything to her, just like loving her sister, just like treating every maid and slave with tolerance, without any annoyance.
Su Shuiyan pushed Lu Qingping away, she was just shy for a while, she didn't expect Lu Qingping to have no intention of continuing, she was still faint, tolerant of herself, and asked herself if she was ready, if she wasn't ready, just forget it?
Rather than being a husband and wife, Su Shuiyan felt that Lu Qingping was more like a gentleman who fulfilled his agreement, and he did his best to fulfill it perfectly.
She stood up, not knowing how to continue, whether to tell him that she was just nervous, or to keep doing it, and ask him what he was thinking.
"I ......" Su Shuiyan turned around, just thinking about saying it clearly, but found that Lu Qingping didn't know when he had fallen asleep, and he didn't make noise after drinking too much, just like usual, she felt that her heart sank little by little, he probably didn't want to be close to her, so he deliberately drunk himself.
took off Lu Qingping's boots and covered the quilt, Su Shuiyan sat at the table, looking at the untouched wine on the table, as well as the burning dragon and phoenix candles, she felt at a loss.
