Compared with the joyful appearance in the yard, Xiniang's wedding room always had a sense of sadness.

"Girl, don't cry anymore. This is the eighth time I've put makeup on you. If the mayor blames you later..."

The person who helped Mia put makeup and clothes on was a little girl, no more than thirteen or fourteen years old, not ugly but not outstanding either, with wheat-colored skin and a lot of freckles on her face.

She was very sympathetic to Mia's experience.

It's a pity that she is just a little servant who works in the mayor's house. Because she knows how to put on makeup, she is arranged to dress up the bride. After doing this, she will get 10 copper coins as a reward.

"I don't want to marry the mayor's son..."

Mia muttered with red eyes, and tears rolled down her eyes. Although she was a bride, she was shackled, and Morik did not give her any chance to escape.

"Alas..." the girl sighed. She wiped away Mia's tears and reapplied makeup on the tear marks. To be honest, she had done makeup for many brides in the town, but this was the first time she met her.

Seeing such a pretty and lovely sister like Mia, while feeling pity in her heart, she couldn't help but comforted her softly:

"You have to be open-minded about everything. Marrying the mayor's son is not necessarily a bad thing." She put her mouth to Mia's ear, carefully observed her surroundings, and then lowered her voice and whispered: "Listen

He said that Morik's son is a fool and is inhumane. He may die at any time. After you get married, you will live alone, and as the mayor's wife, you will definitely not be treated badly.

, if I were you, I would definitely get married~"

Mia didn't answer, just cried silently.

She and the little girl had different thoughts.

The little girl values ​​​​a life with no worries about food and clothing, but she values ​​​​being with the person she likes even more. Even if she is poor and full of dangers, every minute and second she spends together is sweet.

By this time, Winter City's army was probably on its way back.

Your Excellency should not delay the retreat plan of the entire legion just for her alone.

She thought pessimistically, and the tragic fate of the future began to appear in her mind.

After getting married, she cried in her room every day; her husband, who was not very bright, even had difficulty communicating. It was said that he liked drinking very much and would go crazy after drinking. He might even punch and kick her; maybe in the end he would have to commit himself to

Mayor Morik, after all, Morik still has to carry on the family lineage.

She also thought of her father.

I haven't seen my father for more than three days.

She had been imprisoned in the woodshed for the past three days. Although the cruel uncle said that he would take good care of her father as long as she was obedient, there was no credibility in this statement.

Mia wanted to die.

But she is always under surveillance.

His hands and feet were shackled, making it difficult to move. Even hitting a wall became a luxury.

"Time is up!"

"Welcome the bride!"

There was a loud commotion outside.

The little girl next to her quickly wiped away the tears on Mia's face, and then put on a veil for Mia.

The appearance of the newlywed bride cannot be exposed to the eyes of the guests. Only a rough outline and vague eyebrows can be seen.

This is a small town custom, which demonstrates the strong and twisted possessiveness of small town men.

In the small courtyard of the mayor's mansion.

The guests are already looking forward to it.

Morik's silly son wore a suit of noble leather armor, a black woolen sweater underneath, and a crocodile belt tied around his waist.

He sat carelessly on a chair next to the fountain.

If it weren't for the stupid look in his eyes and the words "My woman!" "I want a woman!" that came out of his mouth from time to time.

He looks quite talented.

The jugglers played cheerful songs and danced lively. In the sound of the songs, Mia was pushed out like a puppet by two servants.

She was stumbling when she walked.

You can still vaguely hear the "clang" of the shackles being dragged on the ground.

But it was soon lost in the joyful music.

Putting on the dress that belongs to her daughter's family, Mia's beautiful figure can be seen at a glance. Although she is wearing a veil, her delicate face can be vaguely seen. There are many young squires around. Looking at the beautiful person in front of them, they feel in their hearts

They were so angry that they all looked at Mayor Morik with envy and hatred.

On the other hand, Mayor Morik was smiling indifferently and occasionally took a sip of the wine in the goblet, not to mention how comfortable he looked.

The bride and groom have all arrived.

The master of ceremonies walked in front of everyone.

He is a priest in a church in a small town. Unfortunately, he does not have enough faith and does not even know how to heal. He can only take on such jobs to make ends meet.

He was already familiar with what should be said at the wedding. I saw him standing next to Mia and Morik's son, and said to the demented young man: "We have invited our groom, please answer solemnly, no matter good or bad times

, adversity, wealth or poverty, are you willing to marry the girl next to you, and always respect her, love her, protect her, and stay with her hand in hand for the rest of your life?"

"Woman! Hehe, my woman, hehehe..."

master of ceremonies:"……"

The atmosphere at the scene became silent.

Morik's face didn't look good either, and all the words he had taught his son what to say were in vain.

However, the master of ceremonies was also a seasoned person. Although he despised Morik and his son in his heart, he still said with a trademark smile:

"Hahaha! It seems that our groom can't wait to get married to the bride. My woman said such things, she is so domineering!"

Morik silently gave the emcee a thumbs up.

And decided to give this versatile priest a little more reward after the wedding.

The awkward atmosphere was resolved by the priest's clever joke, and the atmosphere became lively again. He struck while the iron was hot, turned to the bride and asked:

"Beautiful bride, please put your right hand on your chest, please answer solemnly, no matter good times, bad times, rich or poor, are you willing to marry the man next to you, and always respect him, love him, and protect him?

Him, stay with him hand in hand for the rest of your life?"

Mia's thin shoulders trembled, and low sobs came from under the veil.

She did not answer the MC's question, but resisted silently.

The atmosphere at the banquet became weird again.

Anyone can see that this marriage was a forced marriage.

Although everyone knew what was going on, Mayor Morik's face was completely lost. He threatened Mia with a sullen face and a non-smiling smile:

"The bride probably misses her father. After the wedding, I took Mia's father over. As a family, we should be enjoying ourselves~"

Everyone praised Gao Yi, the mayor of Morik.

Only Mia knew what this meant.

If this marriage doesn't happen, her father will die!

The emcee smiled awkwardly and asked the bride the previous question again.

"I...I..." Mia murmured, tears welling up in her eyes: "I wish..."

"Sorry, I don't want to!"

Suddenly a loud shout interrupted the wedding process.
Chapter completed!
