The people coming and going..,
Many of Li Xiao's faces looked familiar. She had probably seen them at Lord Chen's house,
They were relatives of the Chen family.
But she couldn't call out their names,
Because she didn't remember at all.
Fortunately, the ladies who came to help Li Xiao were very kind,
When they spoke to Li Xiao, they would first introduce themselves.
This made Li Xiao extremely grateful.
When she was finally dressed neatly, Li Xiao was already a little stunned.
She recalled that she didn't know which madam had pulled her just now.
And told her the details of sex,
Her face was red and hot,
Her head was swollen.
Just now, someone had fed her a few mouthfuls of food. She was now wearing a veil on her head,
She was chewing the food,
Her mind was in a daze. She had no idea what she was eating.
Although her brother's body was much weaker than before,
He still insisted on carrying the little girl into the bridal sedan chair.
She leaned on her brother's back and was silently carried away by him,
Her eyes turned red in hindsight.
"Brother..." Li Xiao called out in a low voice,
There was a hint of inexplicable sourness in her tone.
Li Yu bounced her on his back again. There was a smile in his voice,
He pretended to be relaxed and said, "Little girl, you're getting married so soon. Brother is falling behind you."
Li Xiao pursed her lips,
Her cheek leaned against her brother's head,
Her hand tightened slightly,
But she was afraid of strangling her brother.
Her heart was soft and sour,
Her complicated emotions made her unable to sort them out.
After getting into the bridal sedan chair, Li Yu patted her arm before helping her lower the curtain of the sedan chair.
Through the gap in the curtain of the sedan chair, she saw the boxes again. Only then did she realize that those were her dowry boxes.
Lively musical instruments were playing, accompanied by the sound of firecrackers and children's laughter. She sat in the sedan chair and passed through the streets.
Her hands clenched into fists. She pinched her thigh and realized that this was really not a dream.
She... she was actually going to marry Lord Chen.
Lord Chen was going to marry her.
She had only thought that she could be by Lord Chen's side and wanted to be by his side forever, but she had almost never dreamed of being Lord Chen's wife.
Now, before he even had the time to dream, his dream had come true.
It was only at this moment that she realized the reality of all this. She suddenly realized that she had already become a descendant of the Min Family and a young lady of a prestigious family. She did not have the time to savor this new identity …
Soon, she would become Madam Chen again.
She suddenly had no concept of time in her world.
In the blink of an eye, they arrived.
When did the palanquin stop? When did the curtain of the palanquin open? When did that large hand reach over?
She had no idea.
Li Xiao felt her entire body heat up to the point of evaporation when she reached out her hand and was tightly grasped by that thick and powerful hand.
The moment she touched Lord Chen's palm, she saw a scene of the future — a gauze curtain, a silk bed, and her lying on the bed with her black hair spread out like clouds on the red pillowcase — a scene that belonged to Lord Chen's future.
"…" Li Xiao took a deep breath and felt that his face was burning hot.
She had always been a little afraid of Lord Chen and was always careful in front of him.
Although she was gradually becoming more courageous, at this moment, she seemed to have turned into an easily frightened little rabbit.
When he gently squeezed the back of her hand, she realized that she was trembling.
She carefully lifted her skirt and slowly got off the palanquin. Chen Jue patiently waited for her. The hand that held her was also steadily supporting her weight.
When Li Xiao was held by him and walked on the ground, she felt as if she was walking on clouds.
Her whole body was hot and dry, and her head was dizzy and her heart was racing.
She felt that she might faint, so she could only hold his hand with all her strength and lean half of her body on him.
Chen Jue held her hand in satisfaction and half-hugged her as they walked step by step into the main hall.
His parents and Li Ru were sitting in the main hall.
Min Zhao happily sat down and looked at them happily, applauding happily.
The whole world was boiling. Li Xiao's ears were filled with the sound of firecrackers and music, as well as the sound of congratulations from all around.
The strange thing was that she seemed to be able to hear the sound of her and Chen Jue's breathing.
Until the end of the ceremony, she didn't even remember how many times they bowed.
In a daze, she was pulled over the red bricks, turned over the small bridge, and walked through the corridor. When she was almost dizzy, he pulled her into a room.
When Li Xiao came back to her senses, she was already sitting on the bed.
The bed was made of silk and slippery.
She looked down and could only see her nervously clenched hands. When she looked up, she could only see a red cloud.
In the midst of the laughter, when Chen Jue lifted her veil, Li Xiao stared blankly at him. Dressed in red, he was full of joy. That handsome and serious face was rippling with gentleness and joy.
Chen Jue stuffed the wine cup into the hands of the dazed little girl. He held the other cup and went around her arm. Seeing her foolishly staring at him, he said in a low voice, "Drink."
Li Xiao hurriedly said, "Oh." She foolishly lowered her head and drank a big mouthful.
As a result, the thirsty and foolish little girl was caught off guard by the spiciness of the wine and two streams of tears came out.
Chen Jue hurriedly reached out and patted Li Xiao's back. The little girl raised her head to look at him with red eyes, looking delicate and pitiful.
He hurriedly took a deep breath and suppressed the heat in his chest.
He really couldn't wait ….. He couldn't wait a moment longer …..
He raised his head and saw that the room was full of people looking at him and Li Xiao with smiles. They looked like they were itching to have a go at it.
Chen Jue's face became cold. The people in the room immediately became silent and became very cautious. His prestige was still there.
He turned his head and looked at the little girl. He reached out and patted her head. He softly said, "Eat something first, then take a bath and rest.
I'll come back after I'm done with my business. You don't have to wait for me.
You've been exhausted these past few days. "
Li Xiao raised her head and stared at him with her big eyes. She was so focused that it was as if he was the only one left in the world.
In the candlelight, he could see himself in her eyes. He was wearing a bathrobe that was dazzling red.
He stood up and blocked everyone's line of sight. He bent down and kissed the little girl's forehead. Then, he hurriedly turned around and left.
When he left, he took the madams and madams with him. No one was allowed to stay and disturb her.
Li Xiao was still a little absent-minded when she, two maidservants, and an old woman were the only ones left in the room.
It was as if she was floating on water, as if she was soaking in warm water, as if she was lazing in bed on a sunny day, as if she was taking a peaceful afternoon nap in the house on a rainy afternoon …
That kind of comfortable and slightly tipsy feeling.
"Madam, eat some porridge and snacks first." The maidservant came to Li Xiao and said softly.
She ate two snacks and a bowl of porridge with the help of the maidservant.
"Madam, this servant will help you bathe." The maidservant put away the plates and bowls and returned to her side.
Thus, Li Xiao stretched out her arms. Under the control of the two maidservants, she took off her bathrobe and phoenix coronet. She was led by them to the tub of warm water. She dizzily washed until she was clean and fragrant.
When she returned to the bed and sat down, she had already changed into a white undergarment.
She absent-mindedly raised her head. There was no one else in the room. She was the only one left.
Leaning against the headboard, Li Xiao looked around the room, looking at the red color.
Red canopy, red candles, red bedding …
The red lanterns outside the window reflected the red light. When the light came in through the window, it was also dyed red. It sprinkled the floor and the screen in the bedroom.
When she closed her eyes, she was in a daze. Today's scenes were all over her mind.
There were no coherent scenes. There were only scenes pieced together.
In the mirror, she saw her fair and tender face, her brother's back, Lord Chen's hand, her own red robe, Lord Chen's smiling eyes, and this festive yet unfamiliar bedroom …
