Chapter 285 Do You Know Who She Is
After only a year and a half, Jiang Jin finished his store inspection and came back to urge his grandfather, two fathers and brother-in-law to go to the Niu family to propose marriage for him.
We must never let the Niu family marry Niu Lian to someone else.
Grandpa Jiang was so happy that he immediately started preparing the betrothal gifts.
After completing the second and fifth appointments of the three letters and six engagements, Jiang Jin and Niu Lian were both eighteen years old.
The last book and engagement is the welcoming of the book and the welcoming of the bride.
Early in the morning, Jiang Jin nervously touched and looked around, feeling that something was not done well.
Liu Da, who was in charge of the wedding banquet, asked his master to rest assured. He closed the five branches in the north of the city and transferred all the staff to the Jiang Mansion to take care of the wedding banquet. How could he not do a good job?
Sheng Meizhuo and Old Lady Qin, who were in charge of entertaining the female members of the family, told Jiang Jin to relax. In the past three years, they had learned a lot of etiquette from the maids sent from the palace, and nothing would go wrong.
Grandpa Jiang, Grandpa Qin and Lan Yihua, who were in charge of entertaining the male guests, pushed Jiang Jin to the servant and asked the servant to dress up their young master. It must be because they felt uneasy because of their own unattractive appearance.
Jiang Jin: "..."
Is he not good-looking enough?
Isn’t the fact that Niu Lian pursued him the best evidence?
Aren’t the girls who often run into him, the richest man in the country, on the street the best evidence?
The servant used eyebrow pencil and eyeliner to put on some makeup for the absent-minded young master, and then said it was okay.
I grass!
Who is the person in the mirror with crooked eyebrows, squinting eyes and a monkey-butt face?
"Don't rub it!"
A man appeared behind the servant and stopped Jiang Jin from wiping his face.
"Brother-in-law?"
This person is Niu Lian’s brother Niu Chao.
Niu Chao pointed at Jiang Jin's face and said, "If you wipe it off, I might not be your brother-in-law anymore.
Lian'er said that your appearance is too attractive to men, and today you must break those girls' fantasies. Otherwise, the wedding will be postponed."
Jiang Jin: "..."
Asking him to go to the bride wearing clown makeup?
"If Lian'er and the Niu family don't think I'm embarrassed like this, then I'll go to the wedding with this makeup on."
Niu Chao "..."
Are you not angry?
It seems that he really loves his sister, so I should help him!
"You can wash it and put on makeup again, just make it something ordinary.
However, my family has set up many difficulties for you, so you should bring more people to welcome the bride."
"Thank you, uncle."
Jiang Jin quietly stuffed a purse into Niu Chao's pocket, and Niu Chao left contentedly.
Not long after, all the uncles of the Niu family came to "tip off" Jiang Jin, and Jiang Jin also gave each of them a purse containing 200 taels of silver.
The uncles gathered together to happily discuss how to make things easier for the bride? In the end, they didn't need to make any easier, because Gousheng alone could take care of the entire Niu family.
Niu Dayan personally welcomed Gou Sheng into the main hall, "Gou Sheng, it's been many years since we last met. Why are you still in this state to see me, big brother?"
Gousheng took off his makeup on the spot, and a beautiful woman appeared in front of everyone in the Niu family.
"Big brother."
Jiang Yu cupped his hands to Niu Dayan and said, "From today on, I will call you my uncle."
Faced with such a beautiful woman, Niu Dayan was a little at a loss, "No, no, no, let's just do our own thing... Hey, hey, hey!"
There was a white and tender hand on Niu Dayan's ear. "Gou Sheng's sister is so young, you are calling her brother or sister? Where's your face?"
Niu Dayan leaned sideways towards the ear that was pulled, "Wife, wife, let go, there are so many people watching, give me some face!"
Jiang Yu bowed and saluted, "Big brother is so lucky to marry such a young and beautiful daughter-in-law like my cousin."
Praise her for being young and beautiful? Gousheng's sister is really good at talking, she likes it.
Du Ying stepped aside her husband and reached out to Jiang Yu to help her up, "Niece, today is the auspicious day for our two families to get married. Big Eyes and I will make everyone happy.
I know what kind of person Big Eyes is, otherwise I wouldn't be willing to marry him."
Jiang Yu stood up straight and smiled, "Congratulations, big brother, on marrying a gentle and considerate wife.
I haven't been to the Niu family for so many years, so today, I will make up for it by giving everyone gifts."
Every member of the Niu family received a big gift bag, which contained items from the boutique prepared according to their personal preferences. The women also received an extra two-meter-high dressing mirror.
Who can resist this situation?
None of the programs prepared for the groom were performed. He successfully carried the bride out on his back, kowtowed to thank the elders, and got into the bridal sedan.
As soon as the newlyweds left, Jiang Yu invited the Niu family to a banquet at the Jiang Mansion.
His Majesty will also attend the Jiang family’s wedding banquet today, so how could the Niu family not go?
More than a hundred people entered the Jiang residence in a mighty manner, but it did not seem crowded.
This Jiang Mansion is a five-courtyard house that Jiang Jin bought not far from the Niu Mansion. It was demolished and then rebuilt with five courtyards.
Each building is two stories high, including the pavilion in the yard.
How could so many buildings not be able to accommodate more than a hundred members of the Niu family?
Even when the emperor came, everyone gathered in the Second Hospital to welcome him, and it didn't feel crowded.
"Stand up! Today I am only here to congratulate Brother Xiaojin on his wedding. Don't be too restrained. Just treat it as a family dinner."
Shen Gurui and Ji Wan'er were invited into the main hall.
Ji Wan'er looked at Jiang Yu, who was dressed in her gorgeous attire. Why did she feel familiar with this woman?
Jiang Yu bowed and saluted, "Empress, is there anything wrong with me?"
Ji Wan'er was still looking around in deep thought, Shen Gurui hurriedly asked Jiang Yu to stand up.
Ji Wan'er quietly pinched Shen Gurui's waist. Was she feeling sorry for the beauty?
Shen Gurui gritted his teeth and endured it, but Ji Wan'er's contempt for him was unbearable. Not long after the meal started, he pulled Ji Wan'er away.
With him around, these people can't relax, so they might as well go back to the palace and coax their wives.
After entering the bedroom, he drove away all the eunuchs and palace maids and was about to hug Ji Wan'er.
Ji Wan'er, who couldn't resist the man's strength, angrily beat Shen Gurui's chest, "If His Majesty wants a beauty, he can select concubines. How can he be so obsessed with a woman?"
"Bullshit."
Shen Gurui grabbed Ji Wan'er's hands and said distressedly, "Don't hurt your hands. Do you know who is saluting you?"
"Who else could it be?"
Ji Wan'er twisted her body unwillingly, "Beautiful woman!"
Shen Gurui hugged Ji Wan'er tightly, letting her feel the changes in her body, "Except for you, I won't fall in love with anyone else.
She is the Palace Master of Lingxiao Palace who is dedicated to maintaining domestic unrest and eradicating foreign enemies’ ambitions.”
"She is the Palace Master of Lingxiao Palace?"
"Yes, both she and her husband."
Shen Gurui lowered his head and pressed his lips against Ji Wan'er's, "Tell me, how can I let her keep bowing like she's being punished?
Wan'er, do you know how beautiful you are? The look you gave me just now because of jealousy and anger made me feel confused and flustered.
Wan'er, we have nothing to do today, let's go to bed early!"
Ji Wan'er looked out the window. Did she rest just after the sun set?
Shen Gurui narrowed his eyes slightly. How could she be distracted when she was with him? Then he told her to just remember to call his name, and only call his name.
The palace curtains were lowered, and ambiguous breathing sounds floated out of the palace gate. The eunuchs and maids outside the palace gate hurried to prepare hot water.
