On February 18th, the weather was sunny and the spring breeze was blowing.
Shen Jia was wearing a bright red wedding robe, and her mouth was grinning almost to her ears.
That stupid look was too much to bear to see.
There were six people accompanying the bride. Naturally, Shen You was going, as was Fang Peng, who had a pockmarked face.
Fang Peng recommended himself like this: "With me here, wouldn't it be better to highlight the extraordinary handsomeness of Mr. Shen?"
Shen Jia thought it made sense and nodded immediately.
On the other hand, Mrs. Feng talked to Shen You in private: "That Mr. Fang is very warm-hearted and a very good person. But his appearance is really a bit unsightly. With such a wedding messenger, will the Lei family be picky about him?" ?”
Shen You held back his laughter and said seriously: "No."
This dispelled Da Feng's concerns.
Of course, Fang Peng must not let Fang Peng know these words. It would hurt his self-esteem too much.
Welcoming a bride brings someone who can write poems. Feng Wenyan has been studying for many years, but he has not even passed the examination to be a scholar. Today, he just makes up for it. The person who really has to bear the important responsibility is Feng Shaolan's husband Tao Heng.
Shen Jia also invited Cui Yuanhan to go with him to welcome the bride.
On that day, Shen You was recuperating from his injuries in Pingjiang Mansion. Shen Jia also lived in Cui's house for half a year and was very familiar with Cui Yuanhan. Cui Yuanhan was young, well-thought-out, and had a smooth temperament, so he was very suitable to be a wedding envoy.
The wedding team went to Lei Mansion with great fanfare.
Today Lei Mansion is full of guests and very lively.
The Xue family collapsed, and Lei Tongzhi suddenly became the commander of the Jinyiwei. Today, his beloved daughter is getting married. Who in the hereditary Jinyiwei family doesn't rush to congratulate her?
Seven or eight Lei family brothers, led by Lei Xiaodao, stood neatly outside the courtyard gate.
Shen Jia was not afraid at all, he puffed up his chest and stepped forward.
Shen You didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and immediately grabbed Shen Jia's arm: "Third brother, stop fooling around. Today is your wedding day, and we will be there for you in both civil and military affairs."
How can the groom officer personally go into battle?
Besides, don’t you have any points for what you are capable of? I am so embarrassed on my wedding day, how will I be able to hold my head high when I come to the Yue family in the future?
Only then did Shen Jia react, grinned, and stood aside to watch the fun.
I was so excited that I almost rolled up my sleeves and rushed forward myself.
The guests of the Lei family burst into laughter.
After two hours of fussing, they entered the yard and picked up the bride. Then they went to say goodbye to their father-in-law and mother-in-law.
Commander Lei, who was tall but not angry and intimidating, had a straight face. Mrs. Lei, on the other hand, became more and more pleased with her son-in-law. After her son-in-law kowtowed and saluted, Mrs. Lei earnestly asked: "Sanlang, from today on, you are our Lei family." She is your son-in-law. From now on, you must treat her well."
Shen Jia did not get up, but knelt down in front of her father-in-law and mother-in-law, and solemnly swore: "Father-in-law and mother-in-law, please rest assured that I will treat sister Xiaoxue well. I, Shen Jia, have only one daughter-in-law in my life, and I will never take a concubine or a younger wife."
There was a lot of good cheer in the wedding hall.
Mrs. Lei was moved to tears.
Commander Lei finally looked at his son-in-law and said, "A true man, once you say something, it's hard to chase him back."
Shen Jia responded loudly: "What I said is true. If I don't do well in the future, or if my sister Xiaoxue is wronged, my father-in-law will just beat me."
There was laughter again.
Commander Lei glanced at Shen Jia.
With his little skill, how could he use his father-in-law to take action? A few swipes from Xiaoxue's whip would be enough.
Amidst the loud sound of firecrackers, the bride got on the sedan chair, and the welcoming team left with a flurry of music.
Commander Lei returned to the study with a dull head.
Mrs. Lei ordered her son and nephews to greet the guests and prepare the banquet, and then went to the study.
As soon as he opened the door, Commander Lei was secretly wiping his tears.
Commander Lei, who is in his forties and has a beard on his face and has an extraordinary appearance, has red eyes and tears, looking pitiful and ridiculous.
Mrs. Lei didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She stepped forward and wiped her husband's tears: "Today is a happy day for our daughter to get married. It's not too late to be happy. Why are you hiding here alone and crying? Let people know, what else do you, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, have?
Face to face?"
Commander Lei said with red eyes: "I have many sons in my family, but only one daughter. Once I get married, it's like my heart has been taken out. In the next life, I only want sons, not daughters."
Mrs. Lei was not sad at all, and said with a smile: "It's all nonsense. My daughter married such a son-in-law, what else do you have to be dissatisfied about."
Commander Lei blew his nose heavily: "That silly boy!"
Mrs. Lei glared at her and said, "What a silly boy! In the past, you could just talk about it, but now you are our uncle of the Lei family. As a father-in-law, you don't want to support your son-in-law properly, but you still dislike him."
"Let me tell you, the new uncle will come to visit in two days, so don't brag and glare."
He tweaked Commander Lei's ears skillfully: "Did you hear what I said?"
Commander Lei was so screwed that he took a few breaths.
…
The young couple returned home on the third day of their wedding, and there was another bustle.
Probably Mrs. Lei's advice had an effect. Commander Lei did not make things difficult for the new uncle, and even took the initiative to ask about Shen Jia's daily errands.
Shen Jia was flattered and responded hurriedly: "I am now on duty in the East Palace, four hours a day. The East Palace is heavily guarded and there are many guards. You have to be alert when you are on duty. You are much more tired than before in Prince Yan's Mansion."
Commander Lei hummed: "You are lucky."
When he entered Prince Yan's Mansion, Prince Yan was still a low-key prince. Now, with Shen Jia's silly appearance, how could he be selected as a guard of the East Palace?
Perhaps, if there is another three to five years, he will become the emperor's bodyguard.
Therefore, it is not unreasonable to say that foolish people are foolishly blessed.
Commander Lei gave instructions to his son-in-law on how to do his job. Shen Jia didn't care whether he understood or not, and nodded obediently.
On this side, Mrs. Lei held her daughter's hand and looked at it carefully.
Lei Xiaoxue became a married woman for the first time, and her features were more charming. Her eyes were bright, her mouth was smiling, and her face was rosy. It can be seen that this newlywed's life was very harmonious.
Mrs. Lei laughed in a low voice and asked: "How have you been these past two days? My father-in-law and mother-in-law didn't make things difficult for you, right?"
Lei Xiaoxue didn't feel ashamed and replied in a low voice: "My mother-in-law was very kind when we served tea the day before. The rest of the time, Shen Jia and I stayed in the house. I came back early this morning."
Mrs. Lei laughed and quietly asked some private things between husband and wife.
After all, Lei Xiaoxue is the new daughter-in-law. She was a little embarrassed to talk about it and whispered: "He doesn't quite understand either."
It can be seen that there was no messing around before getting married.
Mrs. Lei was completely relieved and asked with a smile: "From now on, you and Saburo will live a good life. It is best for the husband and wife to be harmonious and beautiful. Even if the husband and wife occasionally have a quarrel, don't bully Saburo because of your good skills.
