Does your husband only love his wife?I turned around and left the house to marry a villain
Chapter 714 The Taste of Power
This was He Yuanzhou's third visit to her.
Li Qiulian finally agreed to let him into the house to have a good talk.
"Aunt Ding and her family saved my life. My parents and relatives were not around, so from then on Aunt Ding was my mother, and I considered this place my home." Li Qiulian sat in front of the windowsill, slightly tilted her body, with a pink veil with lotus pattern on her face. She lowered her eyes, frowned slightly, and had a hint of worry in her eyes.
He Yuanzhou sat opposite her, his hands on his thighs, feeling quite nervous: "I know, I will give a large sum of money to thank the Ding family, then...are you willing to go back to the He family with me?"
Li Qiulian didn't even look at him, but looked out the window absentmindedly: "I can go back to the He family with you, but you have to marry me in a sedan chair carried by eight people."
At this point, she looked back at He Yuanzhou and said, "Although my relatives are gone, you can't bully me and try to cover it up. I heard from Aunt Ding that you posted my portrait all over the city in order to find me. You must prepare this sedan chair for me. Otherwise, I don't know how I will be portrayed in the stories of others."
After saying this, her eyes turned red and she lowered her head to wipe away her tears.
He Yuanzhou nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay, I agree to your request, you will marry from the Ding family, and I will arrange the wedding ceremony. Are you sincere in marrying me?"
Li Qiulian kept her head down and wiped away tears, saying, "Now that it has come to this, isn't it redundant for you to ask the last question? Whether I marry you sincerely or not, can it change the fact that I lost my virginity before marriage?"
When she mentioned the words "losing virginity before marriage", tears welled up in her eyes and she looked up at the man opposite her.
He Yuanzhou looked guilty: "I'm sorry, I..."
"Sir, what Madam Ding said is right. Since we are already husband and wife, I will be your person in life and your ghost in death. No matter how much I say, it will only hurt our feelings." After saying this, Li Qiulian stood up and left the hall, returning to the house where she currently lives.
He Yuanzhou looked at the door of the house opposite closing, feeling mixed emotions, of course, more joy than happiness.
He stood up and stared at Li Qiulian's room for a long time.
He did not return to the He family immediately, but went to the Thousand Buddha Temple to pray for an auspicious day.
The auspicious day for marriage is set on...
"One month later." Xie Ci entered the palace and reported to Xie Jinyun and Gu Changning: "Madam Li is also preparing to buy an official position."
"Mrs. Li really spent a lot of money, selling most of her belongings just to buy a ninth-rank official position for her son." Xie Jinyun picked up the account presented by Xie Ci and handed it to Gu Changning.
Gu Changning took a look and asked, "What kind of person is Madam Li?"
Xie Ci said: "According to my wife, Madam Li is greedy for petty gains, petty-minded, and will curry favor with the powerful. My mother-in-law was deceived by her several times. After seeing Madam Li's true face, she rarely interacted with her again. This time my wife helped to call her mother and daughter, and it was also because..."
"I understand." Gu Changning picked up the account book. "He Yuanzhou, who claims to be upright and incorruptible, faces the greedy Madam Li. Madam Xie's move of using the opponent's strength against hers is very well calculated. When does He Yuanzhou plan to marry the girl from the Li family?"
"The eighth day of the lunar calendar next month." Xie Ci replied.
Gu Changning said: "Since Lord He has married a new wife, I must also prepare a big gift."
"It would be such an honor if the emperor and empress attended the wedding banquet at the He Mansion together," Jiang Huai said.
Gu Changning raised his thin lips and said, "Yes, it is such an honor to have the Emperor and Empress attend the banquet together."
Only if he is valued by the king of a country, or if he is highly respected and has many disciples, and the emperor also respects him a little, can he ride a dragon and phoenix chariot and appear in person.
At this time, everyone's eyes will look at He Yuanzhou, and everyone will feel that He Yuanzhou has a bright future and the He family's status will only get higher and higher.
By raising He Yuanzhou's prestige, the Li family will also rise, and slowly...
By the time Li Qiulian's true colors were revealed, He Yuanzhou had already boarded the pirate ship.
"Then let's arrange it this way. On the day of Lord He's wedding, I and the Queen will attend the wedding banquet together. Remember to prepare a big gift."
"Yes, I will prepare it right away."
Jiang Huai turned around and walked out of the Daxing Palace. After Xie Ci reported the government affairs, he also left the Chen Kingdom Palace.
Gu Changning turned around, hugged Xie Jinyun's waist and said, "Go in and sleep."
On the eighth day of the eighth month, there was great joy in the He family.
The wedding procession marched from the street market with music and dance all the way to the western suburbs of the imperial capital to welcome the bride.
Madam Li came early in the morning to have someone dress the bride. Li Qiulian looked at the gold hairpins and jade ornaments on her head and quickly took them off, saying, "Mother, I am an orphan with no status now. The Ding family can't afford to buy me a lot of gold and jade ornaments. You put so many gold ornaments on my head and body. What if Lord He finds out and changes his mind and doesn't want to marry me anymore?"
"You are stupid." Madam Li put the gold hairpin she had taken off back on her head and said, "I have seen that Lord He has given the Ding family a lot of reward money and also made a betrothal gift to the Ding family. Those are not money. When he asks about it later, just say that Aunt Ding used the betrothal gift money and reward money to make this headdress for you and that she truly treats you as her own daughter. Isn't that enough? Besides, which rich family would marry off their daughter without wearing gold necklaces and gold collars all over their body? I still think these things are shabby and unfair to my daughter."
Mrs. Li carefully dressed up Li Qiulian and wished she could cover Li Qiulian with gold.
Li Qiulian was finally convinced. She looked at Madam Li putting gold hairpins and jade ornaments on her head. If she hadn't stopped her from doing so, she would have really covered herself in gold. "That's enough. Lord He's bounty and betrothal gifts are not enough to buy this outfit. Mother, please don't harm me. Our good days are still to come. As for buying an official position for my brother, I will let Lord He do it after I marry him. I will ask him to find a higher position for my brother."
When talking about the latter part, Li Qiulian's red lips slightly raised.
For a month, Li Qiulian enjoyed the power of a high-ranking official.
He Yuanzhou responded to her every request, which made her truly understand the words of thanks.
Aunt Ding walked in quickly and said to Madam Li, "Lian'er, the wedding procession is here."
"Mom, hide quickly and don't let Yuanzhou know you are here. Aunt Ding, quickly ask someone to take my mother to hide in the back mountains." Li Qiulian quickly pushed Mrs. Li away.
Madam Li said, "Why should I hide? There are so many villagers outside watching the fun. I can just hide in the crowd. No one will notice me. I still have to watch my daughter get married with my own eyes."
After saying this, Mrs. Li lowered her head and wiped her tears.
Li Qiulian was in a dilemma: "Mom, when I marry into the He Mansion, I will take you to live there. The He family is very big. As long as I tell Yuan Zhou, he will arrange a carriage to pick you up."
Upon hearing this, Madam Li heaved a long sigh of relief, and then walked out of the room with a proud look on her face...
