Chapter 211 Today is the day to get married
On August 18th, the moon and the sun are in harmony, the sky is clear and the air is fresh, which is a good day for getting married.
Early in the morning, Jin Chu was still sleeping soundly when she heard the two maids calling out, "Girls, it's time to get up!"
After two lives, this was her first marriage. Even though Jin Chu was calm and composed, she was so nervous and excited last night that even though she went to bed early, she still tossed and turned and couldn't sleep for half the night.
It was not until half past midnight that he finally closed his eyes.
Jin Chu half sat up, opened his eyes a crack, and vaguely glanced at the sky outside through the window. With a heavy sense of sleepiness, he asked, "What time is it?"
"At the beginning of the morning."
Before the more sensitive Yucheng could stop her, the quick-talking Yuxing uttered those four words.
Yucheng sighed inwardly, "It's bad!"
Sure enough, the girl, upon hearing these four words, fell back onto the bed, muttering to herself, "It's still early, let me sleep for another half an hour."
After saying that, the girl wrapped herself in the quilt and turned over to fall asleep again.
Yucheng glared at the dumbfounded Yuxing hatefully and said, "You're not allowed to talk too much!"
Yu Xing also knew that she had spoken out of turn. She looked at Yu Cheng ingratiatingly and anxiously urged, "Sister, tell the girl to get up quickly! There are many things to do today."
"If you had talked for another half an hour, would the girl have fallen asleep like this?" Yucheng complained angrily.
Yu Xing smiled helplessly and said to herself, "I'm just too straightforward and forgot about your temper!" She tugged at Yu Cheng's sleeve and looked at Jin Chu on the bed with heartache, "You went to bed late last night, so it's still early now. I thought there's no need to rush..."
Thinking back to last night when Jinchu turned out the lights very late, Yucheng's tone softened slightly: "At most, sleep for another quarter of an hour, otherwise it will be too late! Today is the girl's big day, and there are many things to do!"
Having said that, he no longer disturbed the girl on the bed.
The two girls were absent-mindedly packing their things according to the time.
About a quarter of an hour later, Huanyan's voice came from outside the door.
"Is my sister up yet?"
This sound was like the sound of nature. Yu Xing's eyes suddenly lit up and she smiled softly, "The savior is here!"
The two of them came forward warmly, their attitude was very attentive.
Seeing this, Huanyan asked without hesitation: "Is my sister still staying in bed?"
The two Yus immediately nodded in agreement.
Huanyan walked directly to Jinchu's bed, leaned over and shouted, "Sister, get up quickly, you are getting married today!"
Her voice was not small, and while she spoke she pushed Jin Chu, who was curled up like a silkworm.
The girl in the quilt rolled back and forth twice, then huddled down again, mumbling, "Don't worry, let me sleep for another quarter of an hour."
Huanyan raised her eyebrows upon hearing this, and simply reached into the quilt, grabbed Jinchu's shoulders, and lifted her out of the quilt.
It was already a bit chilly in the early morning of mid-autumn in the northern border. Jin Chu, who was suddenly pulled out of the warm bed, couldn't help shivering, and most of the strong sleepiness in his body was driven away.
She hugged the quilt helplessly and sighed, finally stopping lying down.
"Sister, please get up quickly! Look how anxious Yucheng and Yuxing are!"
Huanyan handed Jinchu to the two Yus and took a step back, still muttering to herself.
Jin Chu obediently let the two Yu help her get dressed and get up, and she even found the time to palely and weakly save her dignity: "It's not that late actually."
As soon as he finished speaking, Huanyan's mocking voice came crashing down, "It's certainly not too late for dusk! But, have you ever seen a bride still lying in bed, sleeping soundly under the covers on her wedding day?"
Huanyan's voice was clearly filled with anger. Jinchu's scalp tingled, and he begged for mercy repeatedly: "Okay, okay! Butler Huanyan, it's my fault. I shouldn't have been indulging in sleep and making excuses for myself."
Ever since this girl single-handedly supported the cosmetics business in the North, her style of doing things has changed dramatically, becoming more decisive and resolute. All those gentle and considerate gestures she had before seemed like a dream.
Jin Chuxin said: "There is always a gain and a loss!"
Huanyan has grown into a young lady who can stand on her own feet and earn money to support the family, but she is about to become a housekeeper and will start to control herself at every turn!
Seeing her sister apologize quickly, Huanyan hummed softly, and let the matter go.
With the help of the two Yus, Jinchu put on her elaborate and gorgeous wedding dress. After having a simple breakfast, Tian and a group of women came over.
She pointed to the lady beside her, a woman in her forties, with a plump figure and a charming smile, and introduced her, "Ajin, this is Madam Li. She's a well-known woman in our northern border, blessed with both wealth and good fortune. Today, she'll be combing your hair."
"Madam Li, may you be well. Today, I have accepted your kindness and will let Jinchu also experience your perfection."
Seeing Jinchu's pleasant words and polite greeting, Madam Li quickly moved aside. She smiled humbly and satisfiedly: "I dare not accept your gift. It is my honor to be able to comb the hair of the Crown Prince's wife today."
After she finished speaking, she walked to Jin Chu's side, picked up the antique-style sandalwood comb that had been prepared on the dressing table, and gently let it fall along the girl's smooth black hair, while auspicious blessings slowly came out of her mouth.
"If you comb your hair once, you will be rich and prosperous. If you comb your hair twice, you will be free from disease and worry. If you comb your hair three times, you will have many children and a long life."
"Comb it once to the end, and they will raise the table to the level of eyebrows. Comb it twice to the end, and they will fly together like a pair. Comb it a third time to the end, and they will be together forever."
Finally, she combed Jinchu's hair down from the top of her head for the last time, her voice slightly raised as she blessed him word by word: "There will be a beginning and an end, and we will be rich and prosperous in this life together!"
Jin Chu looked in the mirror, watching her loose black hair slowly transformed into a graceful and elegant Wangxian bun in Mrs. Li's hands.
With her hair adorned with various pearls and jades and exquisite makeup, the originally beautiful and gentle pure girl turned into a noble and elegant bride in a blink of an eye.
I’m really getting married!
In a trance, she was helped up by the maid and turned around. There was silence in her ears at first, and then a burst of praise rang out.
"What a beautiful bride!"
"The prince really has good taste!"
"In my entire life, I've never seen such a stunning bride."
"Who says it isn't? After meeting the Crown Prince's Consort today, I finally realized that there are such beautiful girls in the world."
Amidst the cacophony of compliments, Jin Chu suddenly remembered his parents from his previous life. How great it would be if they were still here today.
The moment the thought came to her mind, she couldn't help but think of the parents of this body.
Turning her gaze to Zhao'er, who was not far away, she silently prayed in her heart, "If Marquis Wu'an and his wife are still alive, please bless Zhao'er to grow up safely, bless my third brother and me to have a smooth journey, and quickly overthrow this corrupt old world and avenge the injustices of those in the Marquis' Mansion!"
The girl looked out the window with bright eyes, as if she saw her relatives far away.
The Dingbei Palace, which is in the same city, is bustling with guests and filled with joy today.
Prince Su Cheng'an of Dingbei, who always likes to wear black, is acting out of character today.
He was wearing a bright red brocade wedding gown, a gauze hat on his head, flowers in his hair, and a belt around his waist, which neatly outlined his tall and upright figure.
Because he was marrying his sweetheart, the young man's eyes were filled with anticipation and a smile on his lips. His usual cold demeanor was replaced by joy and satisfaction. He exuded a sense of triumph, attracting the attention of the women around him.
"Father, mother, concubine!"
Su Cheng'an bowed respectfully to the King of Dingbei and his wife in the main hall.
Looking at her son who looked exceptionally handsome today, Princess Du was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. Prince Dingbei also had a smile on his face and a look of joy in his eyes.
He asked his son in a deep voice, "Are you all ready?"
After receiving a positive answer, King Dingbei waved his hand and said, "Then go and welcome your bride!"
