The tavern was decorated with lights and red and green, and Cao Junan really treated Jiang Muxia as his own sister when she was married.

Before dawn, Qingyun wanted to wake up Jiang Muxia.

She cried for most of the night last night, and by the time she was tired of crying at 3 a.m., she had just fallen asleep for less than half an hour.

"Sister Qingyun, why don't you let the lady sleep a little longer? She must be very tired after a busy day. I will try to put on makeup quickly so as not to delay the auspicious time."

Qinghong carried the prepared wedding dress on her arm and folded it at Jiang Muxia's feet. He accidentally caught a glimpse of her tears in the corners of her eyes and her bitten lips.

She was heartbroken. Everyone in the tavern knew that Yin Yusheng had seen through the world and became a monk. After this farewell, she would never see him again.

The two lived in the same village and had known each other since childhood. Yin Yusheng treated her better than his own sister. He did such a shocking thing without saying a word, and many people thought that he was just unrequited love. No one knew that the connection between the two lives had finally come to a perfect end at this moment.

Jiang Hexi and Jiang Hexin, who are from the same village, felt sorry for him when they learned of his choice. As one of the few outstanding young men in the village, what would Uncle Yin and Aunt Yin do when they found out?

Lu Chaoyun and Jiang Mutao sat with her for a long time, unable to say any words of advice, and could only sigh.

Qingyun was wondering whether she should tell Yu Liuying about this. After thinking for a long time, she finally sighed and thought, forget it.

Jiang Muxia slept until the sun rose, and Lu Chaoyun hurried over to wake her up.

"It's almost noon, why haven't you gotten up yet?" The time for the wedding agreed with the Tang family was noon, and there was still half an hour left. She hadn't washed her face, put on her clothes, or put on makeup, and had missed the auspicious time. What a disaster!

Jiang Muxia woke up from her dream and remembered that today was her wedding day. After a good sleep, she was refreshed and it was as if what happened last night had never happened.

She rubbed her cheeks vigorously, turned over, took the handkerchief handed to her by Qinghong and wiped her face roughly, then asked her, "Is the water ready?"

"The second young lady is already waiting in the bathroom."

"Okay, wait for me here and I'll be back soon."

She jumped into the bathtub, and came back in a flash. When she reappeared in the room, Qinghong looked at her eyes and they were no longer red and swollen.

Without waiting for her to respond, Jiang Muxia had already sat on the makeup stool, half-closing her eyes, "Put on your makeup."

Qinghong hurried forward and moved her fingers back and forth on her face. When she looked at her for the last time, her makeup was already done.

Lu Chaoyun was muttering to herself as she walked forward to take a look. She was stunned by the sight.

The girl has a plum blossom ornament on her forehead, a delicate head, tall eyebrows, and eyes as bright as autumn waves, and her noble temperament is revealed in her glances.

A white jade plum blossom hairpin was inserted in her low-hanging bun, and a pair of red jadeite and gold hairpins with pearls hung between her temples.

Jiang Muxia opened her red lips and smiled slightly, "Mom, is it okay?"

"Sister, you are so beautiful." Jiang Muyang wore a new set of clothes, a white jade crown on his hair, and his little face was serious and solemn, just like a beautiful young man.

Jiang Muxia lowered her eyes, smiled slightly, and touched his little face.

"Of course." Lu Chaoyun took the wedding dress and helped his daughter put it on.

Everything was ready. Qinghong helped her sit on the bed and waited for the wedding party to arrive.

It only took them half a quarter of an hour to finish all this. Lu Chaoyun secretly gave Qinghong a thumbs up for her ability.

Liu Xuer and Mei Zhao came together and praised her makeup as soon as she entered the room. Liu Xuer stuffed a big red apple into her arms.

"Take it. It means peace and safety. You can eat it when you are hungry."

The courtyard was in a mess, with people coming and going. She knew that these people were preparing for the wedding.

Liu Xuer held her hand, which was warm and dry. She asked her, "Are you nervous?"

Jiang Muxia smiled and shook her head, "I'm not nervous."

Before coming to Beijing, her sisters-in-law who had married out talked about how they were so nervous on their wedding day that their bodies were stiff and they had to be pushed in the aisle. Their minds were so foggy that they didn't know what they were doing.

Even worse, some people could not adapt to their new life for a long time after getting married. The third sister-in-law of the Li family also joked that when she first got married, she often felt something strange around her at night and woke up many times. It took half a year for the condition to get better.

Make everyone laugh.

However, Jiang Muxia sat on the bed, her heart calm and full of confidence in her future life.

She suddenly didn't understand. Shouldn't she be looking forward to and longing for marriage with her beloved? Why was she so confused when she was eager to be with him?

At this time, there were the sounds of firecrackers and gongs and drums outside the gate. Everyone stood up and the wedding procession arrived.

Nanny Jiang ran into the room in great joy, "Madam, get ready quickly, the second young master is here to pick you up. Young Master Cao and Young Master Wei are waiting outside the second gate!"

Nanny Jiang, Qingyun and Qinghong became her personal nannies and maids and followed her into the Tang family.

Fortunately, Jiang Muxia had already told her two cousins ​​to keep an eye on Cao Junan and Wei Dong so that they wouldn't go too far. Today, she just wanted to enter the Tang family safely and smoothly, so that her family wouldn't be pointed at by people on the street.

No matter how well the Tang family protects her, there will always be people with ulterior motives who spread the news that she is a peasant girl.

So many people had worked so hard to accompany her to the capital city thousands of miles away, and she would feel guilty if she was pointed at by others.

She would not let them be criticized.

Someone outside the door shouted loudly: "The groom has solved the mystery and has been let into the inner house."

The Tang family specially invited an official matchmaker in Beijing, who came in behind the curtain.

"Qinghong, round fan."

Before the matchmaker saw her face, the round fan had already blocked her way. Jiang Muxia lowered her head slightly, watching a pair of big feet in big red shoes walking towards her in small steps.

The red brocade floor inside and outside the room leads directly to the main door, where loud gongs and drums and firecrackers can be heard.

"My dear, the time has come, let's go."

Qinghong and Qingyun stood on either side of her and reached out to help her up.

"Sister, let's go to the front yard first and meet at the Tang family." Mei Zhao and Liu Xuer smiled and nodded at her, then left quickly.

The matchmaker lifted the curtain and shouted loudly to the outside of the courtyard: "The bride is leaving."

Jiang Muxia walked into the yard and faced her parents. Someone placed a cushion in front of her. She lifted her clothes, knelt down, and kowtowed to them to say goodbye.

"My daughter is unfilial and cannot stay by my parents' side to serve them."

Lu Chaoyun's eyes were slightly red. She covered her mouth and turned her head away, not daring to look at her.

Jiang Yuzhou gave her a helping hand and said, "Good girl, get up quickly."

Qinghong came forward and helped her up. She turned around and saw a pair of feet in front of her. She moved the fan and through the corner, she saw his pair of deep and profound eyes staring at her in a trance.

She blushed and hid her face. The matchmaker pressed a bright red ribbon into her hand and shouted, "The bride and groom are leaving."

She was held by his hand and followed his steps towards the gate.

She could feel the eyes around her falling on her. She curled the corners of her lips slightly, her heart calm as she walked slowly as if no one was around.

There were huge crowds of people in front of the tavern, and Tang San and Tang Si were standing in front of the big red sedan chair with carvings by Zhu Jinsen.

"The bride is getting into the sedan."

The bearers pressed down the sedan chair, Qinghong and Qingyun helped her up, Tang Zhongbai stretched out his hand to block the top of the sedan chair, watched her get into the sedan chair safely, and then climbed onto the horse.

Following the matchmaker's voice, "Get the sedan chair..."

The wedding procession began to move, slowly heading towards the west of the city.

Jiang Muxia only felt the sedan shake, lifted off the ground, and moved steadily. She put down her fan, her stomach rumbling with hunger, and she remembered that there was an apple in her sleeve, so she quickly took it out and couldn't help but take a bite.
