In front of the Sikong Residence, the residence that was originally black in color was now decorated in red, symbolizing a festive mood.
The contrast between the red and black colors added a different kind of heaviness to it.
Coupled with the two rows of smiling guards in front of Sikong, the usually solemn Sikong Manor no longer looked like the residence of the current number one noble.
It was no different from the courtyard of an ordinary villager.
Perhaps, the only difference was that
the courtyard of Sikong Manor was a hundred million times bigger in size and grandeur!!!
"Marquis Langya has arrived ~"
A long shout sounded.
On the Vermilion Bird Avenue where the Sikong Residence was located, a luxurious four-horse carriage slowly drove over under the protection of a group of burly men.
At the front of the carriage, there was a large number of people.
The person sitting on the back of the handsome red rabbit horse wasn't Zhuge Mu, who had been given the title of Governor of Yongling, Governor of Liangzhou, and Marquis of Langya!
Who else could it be?
Zhuge Mu smiled and tidied up his hair, casually tying it up with a black ribbon.
Her hair fluttered in the wind.
It set off his temperament with a hint of elegance, and a little less of the fierce air of a general.
Zhuge Mu was dressed in a fitting blue brocade robe and a pair of exquisite jade pendants hung on a jade belt around his waist, making his figure look even more slender and well-proportioned.
As the jade pendant swayed, it emitted waves of clear and pleasant sounds.
In addition to the warm smile on Zhuge Mu's face, it was not an exaggeration to say that he was the dream lover of countless women in Xu Capital.
"Wow! General Zhuge is so handsome today!"
A young girl's shout suddenly came from among the people watching the ceremony.
In the next moment, Zhuge Mu was stunned…
He saw a young girl who was not too bad looking. In her excitement, she threw the handkerchief in her hand at him.
The fragrant handkerchief fluttered in the air, and coupled with the embarrassed look that flashed across Zhuge Mu's face, it immediately caused the crowd to boil.
Zhang Liao, Xiahou Dun, Yu Jin, Li Dian, and the others who were standing in front of the Sikong Residence couldn't help but laugh at this scene.
Without waiting for Zhuge Mu to get close, they cupped their fists and teased Zhuge Mu.
"Haha, we congratulate General Zhuge on your wedding!”
"I wish the general and his wife harmony!”
"..."
As the bridal procession approached Sikong Manor, all kinds of congratulatory voices rang out.
Before Zhuge Mu's bridal escort team arrived at Sikong Manor, the entire manor had already turned into a sea of jubilation.
Seeing this, the eldest son Cao Pi, who was waiting at the palace gate to welcome the bride, did not hesitate and nodded at the attendant beside him.
"Drum music ~"
"Rise ~" The
attendants sang along.
In an instant, the dozens of drums placed along the street were struck by two rows of Sikong Manor guards at the same time.
With the sound of drums and gongs, Cao Pi, who was a member of his family, walked straight towards Zhuge Mu.
In Sikong Manor.
Inside a red boudoir that had been repainted and had brand new furniture and windows.
Hearing the sound of drums and gongs beating outside the mansion's door, Cao Jie's jade-like face revealed a blissful smile.
Cao Jie recalled his first encounter with Zhuge Mu at the Langya Marquis 'Residence and the stories he told him. He felt even sweeter in his heart.
"Sister, I didn't expect you to get married so soon. After you marry Zhuge Mu, what should I do?”
Looking at Cao Jie's bashful yet joyful face in front of the dressing table, a young girl in an exquisite dress behind Cao Jie let out a sigh of envy.
Looking over, he saw that he was slightly younger than Cao Jie. In terms of appearance, he could not be said to be as beautiful as fish or geese, but he was not much worse than Cao Jie today.
That person was Cao Xian!
On the contrary, Cao Hua, who used to be a smart and innocent girl, was nowhere to be seen today.
"Why, sister, do you want to get married too?”
"Why don't I go and talk to father another day and ask him to choose a husband for you?”
Cao Jie's teasing words immediately made Cao Xian realize that he had made a fool of himself.
She could not care less about her sister's makeup that she had just combed and suddenly scratched Cao Jie's armpit.
For a moment, Cao Jie, whose armpit had been attacked, trembled and almost fell to the ground.
Not long after, amidst the girl's bell-like laughter, the clothes on the two women became messy.
Outside the boudoir, Cao Cao's wife, Lady Bian, who had rushed over, looked at her daughter who was playing around. Her face revealed a touch of helplessness.
"My daughter!"
"The groom is almost here. Why are you still fighting?”
As she spoke, Lady Bian glanced at the maid she had brought behind her.
"Don't just stand there. Quickly help Jie 'er dress up again, especially her makeup. Don't mess it up!”
On this special day, even though Lady Bian was the mistress of Sikong Manor.
However, when he looked at his daughter who was getting married, he acted no different from the mothers of ordinary people.
He sized up his daughter, who was dressed in her best attire, and scolded Cao Jie with a smile. However, tears could not stop flowing down from both sides of her cheeks.
"Furen, today is Jie 'er's wedding day. You should be happy, why are you crying!”
"Let's talk about it later!"
"That Langya Marquis Mansion is only a street away from us. If you want to be on a holiday, just ask him to come back more often!”
Outside Cao Jie's room, Sikong Cao Cao had appeared.
Looking at his wife who was crying, a faint sense of helplessness flashed across his eyes.
As he spoke, Cao Cao looked into the room.
"You two girls, stop fooling around!”
"Jie 'er, right now your future husband is being dragged by your elder brother at the door. Don't tell me…you want to drag it out until Pi' er watches the sunset with Zhuge Mu!”
"By then, the auspicious time will be over.”
Cao Cao looked at Cao Jie and Cao Xian's two daughters, who had stuck out their tongues at him, before turning to the maids behind him.
"Young Lady's dowry is ready, don't let anything go wrong later!”
"As for me, I'll go to the front yard to see what's going on!”
Cao Cao gave the palace maids a warning before shaking his head and walking out.
Not long after!
"Miss, go out ~"
As the attendant sang, the door that originally belonged to Cao Jie's boudoir was immediately opened by the maids.
In a flash, Cao Jie, who was dressed up in his best attire, walked out with the help of Cao Xian.
Today, Cao Jie was dressed in his favorite red embroidered palace dress. His skirt was draped on the ground, and his body was surrounded by golden threads.
Her black hair was neatly tied up into a high bun, and her head was full of jade ornaments.
Her once beautiful face was now covered with light makeup. Her skin was snow-white, slightly better than Xi Shi's.
Beside him, Cao Xian, who was dressed up meticulously, was also eye-catching.
Her appropriate attire did not steal the limelight that should have belonged to Cao Jie. Instead, she looked like a lonely white peony, shining in contrast with Cao Jie.
Outside the door, Lady Bian, who was hurriedly wiping her tears from the corners of her eyes, smiled.
Looking at her daughter who came to her and bowed to her, she felt gratified. She also advised her daughter earnestly,
"Today, you have found a good son-in-law and entered the Zhuge family. Naturally, you and your husband will love each other!"”
"From now on, don't use your identity as the daughter of my Sikong Residence to do whatever you want in your husband's house. You have to learn how to look after your husband and teach your children, and you have to learn how to be filial to your elders.”
After hearing his mother's teachings, he looked at the traces that time had left on his mother's face.
For a moment, Cao Jie, who was his daughter, felt sad.
The teardrops were like a broken string of pearls, flowing down Cao Jie's smooth face.
"Mother, I understand what you're saying, but if I'm not by your side in the future, you must take care of yourself!”
With tears in his eyes, Cao Jie knelt down and kowtowed to Lady Bian.
"Good, good, good!"
After happily greeting her three times, Lady Bian looked at her daughter who had gotten up from the ground.
He grabbed Cao Jie's wrist and turned to look at Cao Zhi, Cao Zhang, Cao Chong, and the others who were standing at the side.
"My son, what are you guys still standing there for?”
"As an elder brother, I shouldn't have sent your younger sister out!”
Hearing Lady Bian's words, Cao Chong was still alright. With his physique, he was not strong enough to carry Cao Jie out.
As for Cao Zhi, he was secretly complaining!
Although he was tall and strong, he had already exhausted his body from drinking alcohol. He might be able to carry Cao Jie, but he was not sure that there would not be any accidents in the process.
"Mother, let me do it!”
At the critical moment, Cao Zhang, the yellow-bearded son of the Cao family, stood up.
P.S. I beg for an automatic submission! Finally, it was time for the wedding!
