Minglan is reborn, this time with no regrets!

Chapter 195: Wedding (1) [Thanks to sponsor "Ouyang Xi" for the monthly ticket support! ]

The night before Minglan's wedding, she slept in the old lady's room.

The old lady had originally called Minglan into the house to count her dowry and give her some instructions on how to handle the accounts in the future. Halfway through her conversation, she suddenly heard a few creaking noises on the roof. The old lady's face changed slightly, and she was worried that there might be a thief. Langya and Tieren immediately went up to the roof. When they came down again, both of them had smiles on their faces and said it was just a cat.

Minglan used the excuse that she was worried that the old lady was frightened and insisted on sleeping in her room. The two of them hugged each other and talked until late at night.

The next day Minglan almost couldn't get up.

Danju and Xiaotao held her on both sides to help her bathe and change clothes, and then they went to Jing'an Jun's Taoist temple and the Sheng family ancestral hall in the old house to worship.

After completing these rituals, Minglan was taken back to her own room and began the massive dressing-up project.

Various maids came and went like water, some applying powder to her, some drawing her eyebrows, some trimming her nails, and some applying oil to her hair.

Minglan felt sleepy and let them play with her while she dozed off in a daze, as if she had turned into a butterfly, looking for Zhou Gong in the gusts of fragrant breeze.

Just as I was searching intently, something suddenly pressed down heavily on my head.

Minglan suddenly woke up: "Why is it so heavy?!"

Danju laughed and said, "To be worthy of the hairpin given by the Queen, it has to be not so heavy!"

As Minglan's adopted aunt, the Queen had already given her a dowry. But Gu Tingye felt that this was not enough, so he shamelessly asked the Queen for a betrothal gift. The Queen gave him a hairpin she had used when she was crowned as Queen. Then, this hairpin and the head ornaments sent by the Gu family were both worn on Minglan's head, and the set that the old lady had originally prepared for Minglan was put into the dowry box for Minglan to take away as a family heirloom.

At this moment, Minglan felt like her neck was about to break: "Can you wear it when you're about to go out? This crown is too heavy!"

Xiao Tao smiled and said, "Miss, what time do you think it is now? The wedding party has already arrived at the door!"

Minglan: "What? So fast?"

Langya leaned against the table with his arms folded and smiled, "If it weren't for the Central Plains custom, the girl would have been stolen by a cat last night."

Several girls burst into laughter.

Minglan instantly felt her face burning, but the powder was too thick, otherwise her cheeks would have been red as monkey's buttocks. "Stop laughing, bring me the box next to my pillow, there is a jade hairpin in it."

Danju: "I've prepared it!" She put the hairpin on Minglan's crown and placed it below the queen's hairpin, "How about inserting it here?"

Minglan looked at the smooth jade hairpin and remembered that Gu Tingye had given many gifts to everyone in the Sheng family in order to give her this gift. The smile in her eyes became brighter and she said, "Here it is."

When she was dressed properly, the bridesmaid came into the room with a smile on her face: "Girl, it's time to go out!"

Minglan raised the round fan embroidered with orchid patterns and walked slowly into the hall with the help of the bridesmaid.

At this time, Gu Tingye was already waiting in the hall.

Minglan looked through the fan and saw Gu Tingye, who was dressed in wedding clothes and standing tall and graceful. She felt her heart skip a beat.

When Gu Tingye saw Minglan, he pursed his lips and curled the corners of his mouth. He obviously wanted to laugh, but he held it back.

When Minglan stood next to him, she wanted to know what he was laughing at and quickly looked up at him, but Gu Tingye was much taller than her and she had to look up to see his eyes.

With this raise of her neck, the large crown on her head lost balance and Minglan narrowly avoided falling backwards.

Gu Tingye quickly grabbed her elbow, and they looked at each other, with the smile in his eyes becoming even more intense.

Minglan glared at him a little annoyed.

Who asked you to send such a big crown?

Gu Tingye was indeed a veteran general, and his emotions were suppressed in an instant. He obediently handed the new tea to Sheng Hong and his wife, and bowed to listen to the teachings of his parents-in-law.

After the two elders finished their instructions with tears in their eyes, Gu Tingye gently took Minglan's arm and walked slowly with her towards the hall door.

Just as the two were about to step out, Old Lady Sheng finally couldn't hold back any longer. She rushed forward with a hoarse voice and grabbed Minglan's hand: "Ming girl... Ming girl!"

Tears as big as beans fell like rain.

The old lady wanted to say some auspicious words of advice, but her heart was filled with reluctance, and she couldn't say a word of advice. She could only sob and keep saying "Be fine!"

Minglan's tears also rolled down.

She didn't know how many times she secretly wiped away her tears last night while she was sleeping with her grandmother in her arms.

She thought she would not cry today, but when she saw her grandmother crying, she started crying too.

The grandparents and grandchildren were reluctant to part, which made everyone around them feel warm. Sheng Hong and his wife also stood up and wiped their tears.

Minglan wanted to say something, but her chest was blocked. She was afraid that she would lose control as soon as she opened her mouth. She couldn't cry like this on her wedding day.

The old lady touched the back of her hand a few times, said "Go", and pushed her out the door.

Gu Tingye's strong hands held Minglan steadily. She turned her head and looked at him with tears in her eyes.

His eyes were also wet, and he mouthed to Minglan: "I'm here."

Minglan smiled again, lowered her head with peace of mind, and followed Gu Tingye step by step towards the road ahead...

……

The Gu family's wedding ceremony went very smoothly.

Gu Yankai sat in the main seat, next to him were the tablets of Bai and Daqin. On both sides sat Huai Wang Zhao Ceying and his wife, Gu Tingyu and his wife, and uncles and aunts from the fourth and fifth branches of the Gu family.

This Princess Huai is Minglan’s best friend, Miss Zhang from the Duke of Yingguo’s family.

The original wife of Prince Huai died on the way of escape. After the national mourning, the emperor himself arranged a marriage for his son and asked for the only daughter of Duke Yingguo to be his second wife.

At this time, Guifen was radiant and happily watched her sisters get married, with an expression of joy that could not be concealed on her face.

After paying respects to their parents, the couple entered the bridal chamber surrounded by guests and friends. A group of people went through a lot of rituals in a noisy manner. Gu Tingye was carried out to toast, and Minglan was left in the room to "sit on the bed". According to the old custom, the longer and more stable one sits, the more stable the position of the eldest lady will be.

In her last life and this life, Minglan had welded her buttocks firmly to the edge of the bed. When the guests had dispersed and there was no more movement nearby, Langya could not help but laugh and said, "Young lady, it's a pity that you don't practice martial arts with your concentration! If I could stand as steadily as you when I was a child, I would have been selected to fight on the front line."

Danju said with a smile: "Our girl doesn't practice martial arts. If she has a husband with outstanding martial arts skills, she will be invincible in the world."

Langya slapped his mouth and said, "Yes, yes, yes. Our son-in-law is a great general who quells the rebellion and conquers the west. We don't need to kill the enemy ourselves."

At this time, the general who was suppressing the rebellion and conquering the west was being besieged by his two uncles at a drinking party...
