Chapter 9
The third year of Yuanping.
December 25th, Gengzi month.
Dingmo day.
It is suitable for engagement, marriage, and moving into the house.
This day is the day when the third son of Chengguo Mansion in Mo City and the daughter of Qin family get married.
The Luo family and the Qin family are both well-known big families in Mo City.
It is said that when the two families get married, the wedding should not be luxurious, but at least it should be lively and well-known to the whole city.
But on this day, both houses were quiet.
There was not even a festive decoration on the street outside the house.
No firecrackers, no gongs and drums, no noise.
There were very few guests who came to congratulate.
The two families seemed to have discussed it well, and they held this wedding in an unusually silent and low-key manner.
After someone heard the news, everyone suddenly realized it.
It turned out that the third son of Chengguo Mansion was going to marry into the Qin family and become the son-in-law of the eldest daughter of the Qin family.
"It is said that the third son of the Luo family has an unknown origin, is not the blood of the master of the Luo family, and is not even a bastard."
"I heard that the eldest daughter of the Qin family is seriously ill and stupid, and the marriage is just for the sake of good fortune..."
"So that's it."
"For these two nobles, this marriage is a shameful thing, no wonder they dare not publicize it..."
People were talking about it in the streets and alleys.
And the person getting married, Luo Qingzhou, had dressed neatly and set off from Chengguo Mansion at 9 o'clock in the morning.
There were no tall horses, no flowers and brocade.
There were no gongs and drums, and no grand and joyful team.
There was only a sedan chair, a few servants, a few maids, and a few loads of gifts.
The team went out quietly and hurriedly.
It seemed that they were afraid of attracting others to watch and embarrassing themselves.
The owner of Chengguo Mansion, Luo Yannian, and others had already arrived at Qin Mansion first.
It seemed ashamed to be with this wedding team.
The Qin Mansion was a little more lively.
In addition to the people from the Qin and Luo families, several respected elders from Mo City were also invited to attend the wedding.
No other guests were invited.
The sedan chair went directly into the mansion without stopping outside.
It passed through the spacious and deep courtyard and landed outside the hall.
The curtain was lifted.
Luo Qingzhou, wearing a red robe, walked out of the sedan chair, like a young wife married from her mother's family.
Facing the various eyes of the people in and outside the hall, it would be a lie to say that she was not nervous.
But panic will only make mistakes and become a laughing stock.
So, stay calm!
Luo Qingzhou calmed his mind and faced it calmly.
There was a brazier at the door outside the hall.
There was a strong charcoal fire burning in the brazier.
The old maid hired by the Qin family was dressed in red and green, and was dressed in a fancy way. She gave instructions in a shrill voice: "Groom, lower your head and walk forward, step over the fire basin, burn away the bad luck, and become more prosperous!"
After a pause, she laughed again: "Be careful, don't burn your hips."
As soon as these words came out, the servants and maids watching nearby, as well as the young men of the Qin and Luo families, all burst into laughter.
If the second son of the Luo family came to get married, the old maid would definitely not dare to make such a joke.
Xiaodie stood aside, feeling angry and wronged for her son.
Should the son be humiliated as soon as he entered the mansion?
Luo Qingzhou's face was calm, he lowered his head, walked forward, raised his feet, and stepped over the fire basin.
Entered the hall and stood at the door.
In the hall, his nominal father Luo Yannian and the elders of the Luo family sat in the guest seats, looking at him coldly without greeting him.
As for the eldest lady, she didn't come at all.
"Groom, wait a minute, the bride will be here soon."
The old woman followed in and reminded.
As soon as these words came out, Luo Qingzhou's heart moved and his eyes looked outside.
Some expectations.
I don't know what his bride, who is called a fool, looks like.
I guess she will be wearing a red veil and I won't be able to see her later.
But you can take a look at her figure and behavior first, so you can be prepared.
Behind Luo Yannian stood Luo Yu, the second son of the Luo family.
He shouldn't have come today.
The Qin family didn't welcome him.
He was also busy practicing and preparing for the exam, so he didn't have much time.
But he still came.
He just wanted to see with his own eyes the bride he had broken off the engagement with.
Of course, just a look.
No matter if the other party is ugly or beautiful, no matter if the other party is a fool, he will not regret it.
He now has only one goal, that is to enter the Dragon and Tiger College in Yujing.
Once he enters the Dragon and Tiger College, what kind of proud girl of heaven will he not want?
That's Yujing, where geniuses gather!
His elder brother had long told him that he should have a long-term vision, not just focus on this small place of Mocheng, and not be confused and bound by certain things in this small place.
He certainly understood what his elder brother meant.
So when his mother mentioned this marriage to him, he refused without any hesitation.
So his wild brother who came out of nowhere became his substitute for breaking off the marriage.
The hall was very quiet.
The whole Qin Mansion was also very quiet.
The wait time mentioned by the old woman was obviously not really a while, but waiting for a certain time, or to test the patience of the groom.
Until noon.
The old woman shouted to the outside: "Please invite the bride to come to the hall!"
Luo Qingzhou looked outside.
Luo Yu also looked outside.
The brazier is removed.
The red carpet was laid out and the maids scattered flower petals.
A group of people came slowly, surrounded by a bride wearing a red wedding robe and a red hijab.
Luo Qingzhou was a little disappointed.
The red hijab was too big and wrapped too tightly. Not only could the bride's appearance not be seen, but even the bride's skin could not be seen.
Even the bride's hands and figure were covered by the wide sleeves and wedding gown.
But it can be roughly seen that he is not fat and is tall.
What struck everyone's eyes was that the girl in pink who was supporting the bride was quite slim and pretty, with a sweet smile between her brows and eyes, making her look quite smart and cute.
The bride stopped beside Luo Qingzhou.
The old woman said sharply: "Groom, why are you still standing there? Take the bride's hand, it's time to worship heaven and earth!"
Luo Qingzhou paused, then reached into the bride's wide sleeves, searched for it, and touched a cold little hand.
He held it gently, it was as soft as a bone, soft and smooth, which actually made his heart skip a beat.
Could such a beautiful jade hand be an ugly girl?
He was actually looking forward to tonight's wedding night.
"Hold the bride and move forward."
The old woman screamed guidance from the side.
Luo Qingzhou held his bride and walked forward step by step.
So icy!
The bride's hands are really cold.
Luo Qingzhou's palm seemed to be holding a piece of ice, and the ice made his skin hurt.
Could it be that the bride was playing outside in the snow just now?
I'm a fool, that's understandable.
But with such a beautiful hand, even a fool can barely accept it.
After all, you can still eat soft rice.
"Stop and worship the heaven and the earth!"
The old woman screamed "stop" and raised her hand to point outside.
Luo Qingzhou knew that no matter what he thought in his heart, in this world, he was really married and had a wife.
Although I feel a little unwilling, and I don't even know what the bride looks like, I can't change it at this time.
Bye.
Living is important.
Luo Qingzhou took the bride and bowed down.
at the same time.
At the corner of the street not far from the Qin Mansion, there was a young man wearing white clothes with an extraordinary temperament, looking at the decorated gate of the Qin Mansion with complicated eyes.
An old man with a hunchback stood next to him. He glanced at him and said respectfully, "Sir, it's still too late."
When the man in white heard the words, he smiled casually: "If I wanted to rob her, I would have done it long ago. She has an unyielding temperament that would rather die, so why should I ask for trouble? Since she would rather fall in this world than follow suit. Me, let her go."
Then he asked again: "Have you found out clearly?"
The hunchbacked old man lowered his head and said, "He is indeed a weak scholar with no foundation in cultivation and no practitioners around him. He also had a humble birth. His mother was born in a mountain village. She was raped by Luo Yannian who was passing by and she became pregnant and gave birth to him..."
"He is a pitiful man."
The man in white sighed, but a strange smile appeared on his face: "It's good for her to marry such a person."
The hunchbacked old man immediately said: "She brought it upon herself. Don't worry, young master, she will never be able to succeed again if she marries such a person."
What is not obtained is destroyed.
No matter how white and noble a flower falls into the mud, it will end up being covered in filth and dying.
The old man knew very well that his young master was full of revenge at this moment.
"Let's go, it's time to end..."
The figure of the man in white began to blur.
In an instant.
The two disappeared on the spot, as if they had never appeared.
And at this time.
In the hall of the Qin Mansion, the old woman was screaming the last sentence:
"Sent to the bridal chamber..."
