Chapter 155: Bridal Night of Flowers and Candles(2/2)
"Why do you think the Dongchang Hou Mansion has revived? You should have let your father take advantage of his family's downfall to propose marriage, otherwise you would be the eldest wife of the Hou Mansion in the future!" Lin Xiaoniang became more and more thoughtful.
I'm angry, I feel like I've missed more than 100 million.
Mo Lan almost crushed the handkerchief in her hand: "Isn't it? It's such an honor to be granted a marriage by the government, but that little bitch Yu Yanran took advantage of it!"
Lin Xiaoniang could only sigh: "Well, it's useless to talk about this now. You are not young now, so you should think about your destiny."
"Of course I want to marry high," Mo Lan said proudly.
Lin Xiaoniang was a little worried: "I'm afraid your father doesn't think so. After all, you are a commoner. I'm afraid you will find a well-matched man to marry like Minglan."
Mo Lan glared: "What's wrong with me? I'm my mother's daughter. I live a more noble life than my legitimate daughter. I will definitely marry into a wealthy family in the future."
"Not to mention the Marquis Palace, at least like Hua Lan, marry into an Earl's Palace family, right?"
"Then you have to think of a way. It's definitely not possible to rely on your father alone."
Mu Cang Zhaili.
Minglan was embroidering a pillowcase when Wang Ruofu came. Minglan hurried to greet her.
Wang Ruofu picked up the pillowcase and exclaimed: "If you don't say that this girl is very clever, the embroidery of the mandarin ducks playing in the water is really lifelike. Is this a wedding gift for the eldest daughter of the Yu family?"
Minglan bowed slightly: "I don't have much to offer here. I just want to embroider a pair of pillowcases and give them to sister Yanran. It's just a thought."
Wang Ruofu nodded and said with a smile: "This is just a pair of pillowcases, isn't it a little shabby? I also have some nice items there. I will send them to you tomorrow. I don't want to make people laugh at our Sheng family's pettiness."
Just as Minglan was about to refuse, Wang Ruofu had already stood up and walked out.
Minglan looked confused, but after thinking about it, she understood the intention of Wang Ruofu's move, and couldn't help but feel a little funny.
"It's true that when you are poor in the busy city, no one cares about you, but when you are rich in the mountains, you have distant relatives!"
Xiao Tao on the side scratched her head when she heard this: "Isn't it a gift? Why are you so far away in the mountains and distant relatives?"
"Pfft." Minglan, Danju and others couldn't help laughing.
Soon, Minglan came to Yu Mansion with gifts. During this period, Yu Yanran was locked in the room and embroidered her dowry. Naturally, she was full of joy for Minglan's arrival.
Minglan joked: "Tsk tsk, no wonder people say that people are in high spirits during happy events. Looking at Sister Yanran's charming appearance, the young Marquis is really lucky."
Yu Yanran blushed, shyly slapped Minglan, and said coquettishly: "You are so shameless, a girl who has not yet left the court dares to say such a thing."
Minglan chuckled and hugged Yu Yanran's arm: "Isn't this your home? I don't dare to make mistakes in front of outsiders."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The two sat down while they were talking, and Minglan said to Yu Yanran with some emotion: "Who would have thought that Sister Yanran and the young Marquis would become a couple after parting at the racecourse?
.”
Yu Yanran also had a heart-to-heart talk with Minglan: "Actually, I didn't expect that when the young Marquis helped me get my mother's gold hairpin, it seemed like I was in a dream."
Suddenly he said worriedly: "Minglan, do you think I'm dreaming now? What if I wake up from the dream?"
Minglan teased: "Okay, sister Yanran, if everything else is fake, how can this marriage be fake? Just rest assured and be your wife of the Marquis."
The two laughed and joked for a while, and Minglan handed Yu Yanran the gift list that she had been asked to bring from home.
Yu Yanran looked at it and said: "Minglan, are you having a hard time? How can I bear such a big gift?"
Minglan smiled and said: "I didn't give this gift. Besides, I can't afford it with my little money. This is what the eldest lady meant."
Yu Yanran was still a little confused.
Minglan explained: "Isn't this obvious? The eldest lady wants to lend my hand to express her goodwill to the young prince. Who made your young prince now the new emperor's celebrity?"
Hearing the words "your little marquis", Yu Yanran couldn't help but blush.
Soon, the wedding day arrived. Qin Hao was pulled up early in the morning to freshen up, put on his auspicious clothes, and rode a tall horse to Yu's house to welcome the bride.
Accompanying him were friends such as Gu Tingye, Qi Heng, and Sheng Changbai, and the scene was quite lively.
But when he arrived at the entrance of Yu Mansion, he was blocked. He had to test Qin Hao's literary talent before he was allowed to pass.
"I've heard for a long time that the young Marquis is the number one scholar, so let's first ask the young Marquis to write a makeup-inducing poem."
Composing poetry again? Qin Hao thought for a while and had to copy one now, muttering silently: I'm sorry, brother Wang Ang.
"Joy surrounds the wealthy family, and the light moves the fragrant streets.
Walking under the crape myrtle flowers, I realize that I am an extraordinary guest.
There is no need to use makeup or makeup to look innocent, as you may be too red and white.
Leave the shallow part of the eyebrows to draw the spring color of Zhangtai."
"good!!!"
As soon as this poem came out, not only the crowd watching the scene loudly praised it, but even those who blocked the door couldn't help but nod.
This makeup-inducing poem is really suitable for the occasion.
In Yu Yanran's boudoir, when the maid told her this poem to encourage makeup, Yu Yanran couldn't help but feel shy and looked at the bronze mirror, her cheeks were frighteningly hot.
Qin Hao originally thought that he would be able to pass the test by writing a poem urging him to make up, but he didn't expect to be stopped outside the door.
"Little Marquis, although this poem is well done, a good man can't just love his children, right?"
"Yes, little Marquis, I have to trouble you to compose a poem about a man. Once you've finished it, we'll let you go!"
Qin Hao smiled and scolded: "If you ask me right now, can I still get a bride?"
"Haha~~~"
"It's no use being impatient, little Marquis, but you won't be able to pass this gate. Hurry up and compose a poem."
Qin Hao thought for a while and said silently: Grandpa Mao, bless me.
"The clouds are blooming, Hengyue is accumulating yin, Tianma is stopping, the phoenix is in the spring tree,
When he was young, Qu Jia Cai, an outstanding figure in the mountains and rivers, once remembered this place.
You are walking and I am singing a great song and the Kunpeng is striking the waves from now on.
The Xiangshui River in Dongting rose to the sky, and the giant ship pointed eastward..."
"good!!!"
There was another round of applause. Although most of the onlookers did not understand poetry, this was the charm of poetry. The sense of pictures came to your face. Even if you did not know the specific meaning, you would be shocked by the momentum of the poetry.
While everyone blocking the door was still stunned, Qin Hao shouted: "Come on."
Gu Tingye reacted the fastest and squeezed out a position from the crowd blocking the door, allowing Qin Hao to get in. After the owner had already entered, the others had to make way.
Sheng Changbai was responsible for spreading the money, throwing out red envelopes one by one and being picked up by others. He didn't care how much it was, it was just a lucky draw.
In the front hall, Yu Yanran covered her face with a fan, stood shyly with Qin Hao, and served tea to Master Yu and his wife.
After the ceremony, just as she was about to leave, Mrs. Yu held her granddaughter's hand and couldn't stop her tears from falling.
Yu Yanran also burst into tears. In the end, Mrs. Yu persuaded her for a while before she calmed down.
"Little Marquis, I leave Yanran to you."
Qin Hao nodded solemnly: "Grandma, please don't worry."
When the wedding team arrived at Dongchang Hou Mansion, Yu Yanran could only wait in the room alone, while Qin Hao had already been pulled out to accompany him for a drink.
It wasn't until night that Qin Hao was drunk and sent back to the bridal chamber by Buqi.
But when Yu Yanran stepped forward to help him, Qin Hao hugged her.
Yu Yanran stiffened and looked at him angrily: "Are you not drunk?"
"Of course, that's all a lie to them. We have important things to do tonight, so how can we get drunk?" Qin Hao said with a bad smile.
Yu Yanran blushed immediately, and before she could react, she was hugged by Qin Hao.
In front of Qin Hao, a veteran, Yu Yanran quickly lost her ability to resist and was skinned like a little lamb.
"Husband, please have mercy on Yanran."
"Woo~~~"
