Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The other boys of the Wang Family were all glad that Little Sister Ah Yu was the youngest in their family.
At that time, when they got married, they could let Little Sister Ah Yu put on pearl hairpins for their wives.
Their marriage in the future would definitely be peaceful and beautiful.
Wang Dalang had also gone through a lot of procedures for his marriage, especially with Chang Fu’s help. He did many things himself.
He thought that he was already prepared, but he was still a little nervous standing in front of the sedan chair.
“Alright, Big Brother, you can lift the curtain!” Little Ah Yu crawled out and blocked in front of Wang Dalang.
Wang Dalang looked at her in amusement. “Then why arc you still blocking the way?”
Little Ah Yu spread her hands and sighed. “Aiya, now that my Big Brother has a sister-in-law, he’s become stingy. He didn’t even see that my hands are empty.”
Only then did Wang Dalang remember that he was too nervous and actually forgot to give the red packet.
Little Ah Yu grabbed the red packet he handed over and happily retreated to the side.
A matchmaker shouted from the side, “The magpies are calling. The groom has arrived. Qu family’s delicate lady, please get off the carriage. Stretch out your hand first, then raise your foot. Son, don’t forget your Mother’s instructions!”
As soon as she shouted this, the surrounding people laughed.
There was no other reason. Everything the matchmaker shouted along the way had to be prepared by the groom.
Everyone thought that this matchmaker would say something cultured.
They pricked up their ears, wanting to admire some elegant words.
After all, everyone in Old man Wang’s family could be considered scholars.
They didn’t expect it to be this kind of words.
“Aiyo, who wrote this poem?”
“It sounds like something a child in the village would say.”
“I’m really going to laugh until my stomach hurts!”
Someone in the know said, “Wang Wulang wrote it. I think Wang Dalang likes it.”
Everyone also looked at Wang Dalang’s expression and realized that he was indeed quite happy.
The brothers were all very enthusiastic. Along the way, they wrote whatever they wanted the matchmaker to shout.
Wang Dalang did not feel embarrassed. Instead, he felt very happy.
Wang Dalang had even shown these “poems” to Qu Shuqiu. Qu Shuqiu also felt that they were very good.
Since she had married into a farmer’s family, there was no need for them to use overly pretentious words. The villagers would not understand, and the atmosphere wouldn’t be good.
Along the way, the groom carried the bride and stepped over the brazier. They also had to offer tea to their elders.
The matchmaker had to read out a poem for every step of the procedure.
Every time she chanted, everyone laughed loudly. For a moment, the surrounding atmosphere was very lively.
After the wedding, Qu Shuqiu was led to Wang Dalang’s courtyard house.
It was specially built for Wang Dalang by Old Madam Wang previously.
Official Qu and his wife were also present. The villagers felt a little uncomfortable and did not even want to sit too close to them.
Old Madam Wang handed the ceremony to Wang Chuanfu and his wife and asked them to deal with the guests.
She sat at the main seat and spoke to Official Qu’s mother.
As she spoke, Official Qu’s mother asked, “Old In-law, I saw your Ah Yu just now. Why isn’t she here now?”
“Tang Yuan, where did Ah Yu go?” Old Madam Wang asked Tang Yuan, who was helping to serve the dishes.
Tang Yuan said, “Little Master has gone to accompany Eldest Young Madam.”
It turned out that when Little Ah Yu found out that Qu Shuqiu was going to sit in the new room for four hours, she specially came over to accompany her.
Qu Shuqiu originally had two maidservants by her side. When she married over, her mother gave her another one called Haitang.
At this moment, Haitang was helping to set up the table in the new room. She even brought Qu Shuqiu a stack of rice cakes. “Miss, eat something to fill your stomach first..”
