Daily Life of Jiang Liuniang

   Chapter 1179 A Different Bride

  The auspicious time came soon after the luncheon. Jiang Erlang took the sedan chair and rushed to Fuchun Lane, Daye Square to pick up the bride. Besides Jiang Erlang's two friends in Yulin Weizhong, Jiang Sanlang and Jiang Shilang's two brothers, Kang Yueliang and Baicheng were accompanied to pick up the relatives.

The eldest son of the protector Sun Kangyueliang and the Yulinwei general Bai Yang will accompany Jiang Erlang to welcome their relatives, which greatly exceeds the expectations of the onlookers: this is the wife of the concubine of the Jiang family, not the son of Jiang Erye. Marry a wife, what are they going to do?

  Jiang Liu stood at the door, watching the crowd surrounded by Erlang, who was wearing red silk flowers and riding a tall horse, his heart was like a mirror. Bai Cheng followed him to pick up the relatives. First, because he and Erlang were trained together in Yulin Guard many years ago, and now they are serving in Yu Lin Guard together, and they made friendship. Second, Jiang Ling wrote to Bai Cheng and asked him. As for Kang Yueliang following him, it was because he saw Bai Cheng following him that he wanted to join in the fun.

   Of course, Jiang Erlang was looked at highly by everyone, and there is another reason, that is, because he served as the brother-in-law of Yongchang's first prefect, Liao Chuanrui. Jiang Liu turned to look at Jiang Muzheng, the second sister standing next to him, who had just given birth and had a round face.

   Brother Erlang married his wife today, and the second sister wore a dark brown embroidered gold saffron robe. And she covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and with tears in her eyes, she looked at the relieved expression of Erlang being surrounded by everyone to welcome his relatives. She was indeed more like a mother than Aunt Chen.

   Auntie has a small mind, and Jiang Liu knew what she was thinking by looking at her expression. It is nothing more than that her son is the champion, and when he gets married, he will be more ostentatious than this;

  It was almost evening, Jiang Erlang took his bride Yuan Xiayue to the gate of Jiang's house, and after he got married in the main hall of the North Courtyard, he led the bride into the new house. Jiang Liu and Jiang Mujin held hands and squeezed in the front row to watch the second brother pick the red hijab of the bride.

   The red hijab was lifted, but the bride, who should have bowed her head shyly, looked at the groom with burning eyes, and the groom's face turned red. Seeing this scene, Jiang Liu and Jiang Mujin covered their mouths directly, for fear that they would laugh too loudly and disturb the second sister-in-law's good interest in seeing the beauty.

   When Erlang escaped from the new house in a hurry and ran to the front yard to make a toast, the sisters of the Jiang family gathered around Yuan Xiayue to greet him, and Yuan Xiayue responded generously. Her eyes wandered between the round and beautiful second sister, the third sister who did not eat human fireworks, the smart and lovely fifth sister and the beautiful sixth sister. It amused Xi Niang and several elders in the room to laugh from ear to ear. It was the first time they had seen such a generous and warm bride.

   After several waves of people came in to see the bride, Mrs. Yan, Jiang Liu and Jiang Mujin stayed to accompany Yuan Xiayue to eat, and the others went to the backyard for a banquet. Because she accidentally spilled wine on her dress while eating, Jiang Mujin went back to the Western Foreign Court to change her clothes and come back, Jiang Liu felt that Fifth Sister was a little absent-minded. The fifth elder sister, who is not light on alcohol, ate two glasses of fruit wine, but her eyes were a little straight, so Jiang Liu took her wine glass and changed her with tea.

After the banquet was over, the guests returned, and after Jiang Erlang returned to the new room, Mrs. Yan and Jiang Muyan stared at the maids and servants to clean up the remnants of the banquet, and Jiang Liu pulled Jiang Mujin back to the boudoir of the west courtyard and asked in a low voice, "Fifth sister, what's wrong with you? "

   Jiang Mujin, who had been holding back all night, couldn't hold it any longer, and started crying while hugging Jiang Liu.

   Fifth sister, who has always been lively and cheerful, startled Jiang Liu when she cried, and patted her on the back quickly and asked, "What happened?"

   Jiang Mujin shook his head and cried for a long time before asking in a low mood, "Sixth sister, why do you think a man has to take a concubine? It's okay to take a concubine, why should a concubine bear children for him?"

   I don't know what event or situation touched the fifth sister on the day of Erlang's big wedding. Jiang Liu patted her on the back lightly, not knowing how to answer. Jiang Mujin cried for a while, then fell asleep on Jiang Liu's shoulder groggyly.

Jiang Liu gently put her on the bed, covered her with a quilt, and called the fifth sister's personal maid, Magpie, to the outhouse, and asked in a low voice, "In the evening, the fifth sister returned from the East Outer Court to the West Outer Court to change clothes, If you meet someone or something, you can tell me one by one."

  Magpie hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth, "The slave accompanied the girl out of the East Outer Courtyard, and met the second young lady's brother at the gate of the courtyard."

   Jiang Liu raised his eyes, "Yuan Chunjie?"

   Sixth girl's eyebrows and eyes are extremely beautiful, but when she becomes serious, no one in the Jiang family is not afraid. The magpie trembled with fright, and nodded quickly, "Yes. Young Master Yuan was asking about the bridesmaid, and the slave and the girl stood by the door and listened for a while. Hearing Young Master Yuan instructing the mother-in-law of the Yuan family to be optimistic about the second young lady, Don't let her eat too much wine, she has to follow the rules when she should do anything, and she can't eat wrong. After the instructions, Yuan Gongzi left."

   Jiang Liu asked again, "Anything else?"

   After the magpie replied no, Jiang Liu thought for a moment, and then asked, "Has Young Master Yuan seen you?"

   Magpie replied, "Mother Yuan saw it, Young Master Yuan turned his back to the servant and the girl and didn't see it."

   Jiang Liu nodded, "Don't mention this to anyone, go and prepare the sober soup."

  After the magpie withdrew, Jiang Liu went back to the back room and wiped the sweat on Fifth Sister's forehead by candlelight. The magpie said that Yuan Chunjie hadn't noticed them, but Jiang Liu thought he should have noticed. How can a general who leads troops to fight do not know anyone behind him.

   I've only met Yuan Chunjie a few times, so you like people so much? Jiang Liu put the cloth towel beside the copper basin and whispered, "Silly Mujin."

Jiang Erlang returned to the new room with a smell of alcohol. Seeing that his wife was sitting properly beside the bed, he raised his eyebrows, glanced at the two women standing beside him, and ordered, "Let's all leave. "

"Yes."

After Mrs.    withdrew, Yuan Xiayue was visibly relaxed, and she jumped in front of Jiang Erlang. The steps on her head trembled, making Jiang Erlang's heart numb.

   Yuan Xiayue sniffed between Jiang Erlang's neck, "How many glasses of wine did the second brother eat?"

   Jiang Erlang raised his hand to wrap his arms around her slender waist, "I ate a lot, where's Madam?"

   Yuan Xiayue, who was being molested by the counter, pulled her pretty husband's arm away and brought over the hangover soup, "I ate three cups. The second sister asked someone to prepare the hangover soup, and the second brother had a bowl before going to change?"

   Jiang Erlang picked up the hangover soup and drank it, and then the young couple went to bathe and change their clothes. When she returned to the new house, Yuan Xiayue looked at the pretty husband who was dressed in plain clothes like ink, and she was a little excited, eager to try, and a little shy. She coughed, and pretended to ask calmly, "Isn't it too noisy when drinking in the front hall?"

   "It's not great, the elder brother ate a few more cups and felt a little fluttering while walking. I sent someone to take him back." Jiang Erlang said and walked over to his wife.

   "That guy Dajie is actually drunk?!" Yuan Xiayue was extremely surprised, "Who is Dajie drinking with, I'll find him to settle the account!"

   "With the second uncle."

  Yuan Xiayue immediately changed her words, "Second uncle is a good drinker! Dajie is beyond his own power. When I return home, I will teach him what rules are."

  Jiang Erlang laughed, raised his arms and wrapped his energetic wife in his arms, "Didn't Er Yue always want to kiss me? Now you can kiss me, whatever you want."
