Three days passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was already the sixth day of the lunar new year. The servants at home were busy preparing. Xiao Cui also took the jewelry and wedding dress and placed them on the bed. Mother and sister-in-law also walked around, decorating this and that. They dressed the house very well. I watched from the room. When everything was ready, they gathered in my room.
"Min Min, why are you still standing there? Hurry up and sit down. Let the nannies help you dress up.”Mother was anxious when she saw me.
"Eh? Alright." I answered, then walked to the dressing table and sat down. The people beside me came over to help me dress up. The wedding dress also came up. I stood up and put it on.
Mother and sister-in-law were watching from the side. Sister-in-law was smiling and looking at me happily. Mother wasn't that happy. Although she didn't seem unhappy, it was obvious from her eyes that she still couldn't rest assured about me.
"Mother, can I not wear this crown? It's so heavy.”I shook my head. The crown on it was really too heavy. It pressed down on my head and hurt. I turned my head to look at Mother, but Mother didn't think much of it.
"Minmin, be good. You have to bring it. You can't take it down. You can only do it when you get there.”Mother helped me tidy up the corner of my clothes while persuading me not to take off the crown. I could only helplessly look at myself in the mirror.
After going back and forth like this, I, as the bride, was finally dressed up. I stood up and Mother helped me cover my head. Sister-in-law looked at me and smiled. She supported Mother. I didn't know why my eyes suddenly stung and I wanted to cry.
"Mother, I can't bear to part with you." I looked at Mother.
"Minmin, be good. Go. It's time. Come back and visit Mother when you have time.”Mother patted my hand. Her eyes were a little wet. I knew she couldn't bear to part with me.
"En, Mother, I will come back to see you often.”I covered my head and couldn't see the front. I was supported by the matchmaker. I knew that Mother was also walking together.
Marriage in ancient times was a little different from modern times. In ancient times, people covered their heads with a veil and sat in a bridal sedan chair to pay their respects. In modern times, they put on a wedding dress and the father walked to the husband hand in hand. However, in ancient times, there wouldn't be. I don't know where Ama is now. Will he be watching me?
Just like that, amidst everyone's laughter and the sound of firecrackers, I slowly walked out of the house. I stopped at the door. I was finally leaving this ancient home of mine. I really couldn't bear to leave, but I would come back often because there were important family members waiting for me here.
The bridal granny helped me into the bridal sedan chair and lifted me up. I suddenly felt dizzy. I actually felt dizzy in the bridal sedan chair and it was too uncomfortable. I really hoped that they would arrive soon and let me down. Outside, there were gongs and drums playing. There were many people discussing outside. I didn't expect to marry Yinzhen like this.
I finally stopped after a while. I should have reached the Yinzhen residence. I was finally going to enter and become one of the many women inside.
I only heard the bridal matron shouting from outside," Stop the bridal sedan, the bride is coming out." I walked out of the bridal sedan with the bridal matron's support. Then, he heard the words " step over the brazier " and walked over to the brazier.
Then, he walked straight ahead. Perhaps because he was not officially married, there was no need for a wedding ceremony. He was directly brought to the bridal chamber by the wedding lady.
Sitting in the bridal chamber, I thought Yinzhen should be drinking with some of the princes outside, and I could only wait for her to come. However, the things on my head were really too heavy. I quietly lifted a corner of the veil and found that I was the only one left. I lifted the veil as if I was relieved of the burden and took off the headdress on my head. Looking at the food on the table, my stomach was filled with hope.
" Thank goodness no one's here," I said as I walked to the table to eat something. It was not bad, but I missed the cake and drinks during the modern wedding.
If he didn't want to eat, he had to eat to fill his stomach. Otherwise, it would be difficult to eat when people came later.
" It tastes really good." As I ate, I suddenly choked. I quickly patted my chest, picked up the wine glass beside me, and poured myself a glass. Only then did I remember that it was wine.
Before I could react, I heard footsteps outside. I quickly sat down by the bed and covered my head. At this moment, the door opened. The footsteps were getting closer and closer.
"Are you hungry?" A cold voice came from above, and the veil was lifted.
"It's alright." I looked at him foolishly. Then, I realized that there were still crumbs of pastries on the table. I lowered my head and blushed.
"Forget it. Since you've already eaten and taken off these headwear, go to bed early.”Yin Zhen said as he looked at me.
"Those people outside have left? Aren't you going back to accompany him?" I looked at him and said with some fear.
I couldn't read his expression. He turned around and sat down at the table.
"Yes, they all went back." Yinzhen said as he drank a glass of wine.
"Then... Then why don't I sleep on the floor and you sleep on the bed?”I asked carefully.
I knew that he only married me because Thirteen asked him for help. He just didn't hate me. I looked at his face and seemed to be angry for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal.
"Since you're married, why do you have to sleep separately?”Yin Zhen stood up and walked closer, his voice slightly teasing.
"Well, I know you didn't marry me because you liked me, but because you didn't hate me. It just so happened that the Thirteenth Prince asked you for help, so you agreed.”I said timidly.
I know I might anger him at any time, but I'm telling the truth.
"Okay, don't worry. I won't touch you. It's not good for you if I go out.”Yinzhen said as he looked at me carefully.
" Oh," I replied and took off my wedding dress. Then, I hid under the blanket, leaving only my head outside to look.
I crawled under the blanket and looked at him. For the first time, I seriously sized up the person I had liked for a long time. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes. His facial features were handsome and he had an imposing appearance. He did not look like what was described in the novels at all. He did not look so serious and scary.
"Are you done watching?" Yinzhen stared at me and sat down on the bed.
"What? Watch carefully." I lowered my head shyly.
I lowered my head and grabbed the blanket nervously. I only heard the sound of him taking off his clothes. I was getting more and more nervous. I could even hear my heartbeat. I grabbed the blanket tightly, and my palms began to sweat.
"Don't be nervous. I said I won't touch you.”After saying that, Yinzhen lay down on the bed and covered himself with the blanket.
I watched as he lay down and relaxed. I felt all sorts of emotions in my heart. She didn't dare to turn her head to look at him. She didn't know what he was thinking.
"Fourth Master, are you asleep?" I asked carefully.
"No, why?" He turned to look at me questioningly.
"Nothing. I just wanted to ask, will you like me?”
"I don't know." Yinzhen replied. He said that he didn't know, not that he wouldn't. He felt a little relieved.
"Okay, I got it. Go to sleep then." I closed my eyes. He turned around again. No one knew what he was thinking. I just hope I can stay here safe and sound.
As we thought about it, the two of us fell asleep with our own thoughts.
