Li Xueyan was dressed in a red wedding dress and a red hijab. She sat motionless and waited. She felt panicked and her stomach growled. She wanted to ask someone to bring some food in, but she didn't dare. She was afraid of affecting her makeup and even more afraid of spreading the news.
It will affect your reputation and leave a stain on your wedding.
With my hijab uncovered, I can do nothing but wait.
I don't know how long it took, but Li Xueyan felt that she could no longer hold on any longer. A joyful voice came from outside: "Miss, Miss, my uncle is here."
The door opened and a maid came in. She was Li Xueyan's personal maid. The two grew up together and were like sisters. The young lady could marry a great hero and a talented man. The personal maid was very happy, thinking that she would have the opportunity to become a bed warmer in the future.
The girl became even more excited when she gave birth to a son and a half daughter and had the opportunity to become a concubine.
"It's so rude to be shocked. Stay calm and don't let me think we have no rules." Li Xueyan quickly reminded in a low voice.
"Oh, I understand." The maid quickly agreed, controlling her excitement.
Not long after, Qin Huaidao came in and saw Li Xueyan sitting quietly and waiting, as well as the maid who was scouting next to him. He felt inexplicably excited. After all, she was the wife he was marrying. Even if he had no feelings, he had to value her, acknowledge her, and live with her for a lifetime.
A strange feeling came to my mind, like I had an extra bond, a concern, and a responsibility.
"Is this marriage?"
Qin Huaidao didn't understand. He was getting married for the first time in his life and had no experience.
"Slave Xiaoyu has seen my uncle, please lift your hijab." The personal maid reminded according to the rules.
Qin Huaidao saw a steel weight and two glasses of wine placed on the table next to him. He had also heard the rules before. This was the last part of the wedding. If you did not take off the hijab, it meant that you were not satisfied with the marriage. Not only would you offend Li Daozong, but you would also
Leave the handle to Li Er.
We have come this far, there is no reason why we should not go on.
Stepping forward slowly, Qin Huaidao picked up the weight in his hand and used the other end to lift his red hijab, revealing a beautiful fair face with rosy skin. Under the curved willow-leaf eyebrows, a pair of eyes blinked gently, watery.
He seemed to be talking, with a shy smile on his lips. This smile was charming and captivating.
"Really not!"
Qin Huaidao blurted out that although he had met him several times before, his mentality was different. Coupled with the stimulation of alcohol and some family emotions just now, he was suddenly amazed and a little crazy for a moment.
Li Xueyan had always been worried that Qin Huaidao would look down on her, so her anxious heart was instantly comforted, and she was overjoyed, which made her even more touching. According to custom and etiquette, she shouted softly: "Xueyan, I have met your husband!"
The maid Xiaoyu was overjoyed to see that Qin Huaidao was not dissatisfied, and quickly reminded him: "Please have a drink with me. From now on, we will support each other and we will always be of the same mind."
Qin Huaidao picked up a cup and handed it to Li Xueyan, then picked up another cup. The two looked at each other and smiled, with a more tacit understanding and cordiality. They naturally held hands and connected heart to heart.
After a glass of wine, all etiquette procedures are completed.
The maid Xiaoyu wisely took the weight and empty cup and left with a smile, exited the room and closed the door.
Suddenly there were only two people left in the room. After all, they were not familiar with each other and were a little embarrassed. Li Xueyan blushed and didn't know what to do. She didn't dare to move. Thinking of the shy things her mother told her a few days ago, she felt a little panicked and a little expectant.
He mustered up the courage to say: "Mr. Lang, please take more care of me for the rest of my life!"
"Whoever dares to bully my woman will not be able to kill him!" Qin Huaidao blurted out.
Listening to these rude and domineering words, Li Xueyan felt hot in his heart. He did not feel that it was insulting to the gentle people, but instead felt a sense of security increased. Thinking of what Qin Huaidao did when He'er was kidnapped, he didn't want to agree with He'er, even half of it.
This body is enough, just like a smile, like a mountain flower blooming at midnight.
With the beauty in front of him and the stimulation of alcohol, Qin Huaidao could no longer control himself. He held her in his arms, lowered his head, pressed his lips together, and fell on the bed naturally.
The gauze fell and the red candle flickered.
Soon, the red quilt was rising and falling, and the house was filled with spring colors.
…
After a storm.
Qin Huaidao held Li Xueyan in his arms. Neither of them was sleepy. They were thinking about chatting for a few words and talking about how they would live together in the future. It would be better to talk about some things more clearly, but they heard Li Xueyan's stomach growling, which meant he was hungry.
Li Xueyan lowered her head in embarrassment, got into bed and did not dare to come out. She explained softly: "Mr. Lang, I didn't eat at night. I'm rude."
"Why don't you eat it?" Qin Huaidao asked in surprise.
"They said you can't eat it because it will ruin your makeup and stain your wedding clothes. If you are not clean, it will be unlucky. My mother said you should be clean and marry innocently. You can't be misunderstood by your husband's family. It would be rude."
It was the first time Qin Huaidao heard this explanation. He guessed that it was also a custom. There was no way, it was always like this. No one was exempt from the custom. He immediately said: "Remember, our family doesn't have so many rules. Do whatever makes you feel comfortable. Just wait for me."
Come here as soon as you go, what do you want to eat?"
"It's all okay. Also, I'm thirsty." Li Xueyan poked her head out from under the quilt, with a shy face but a happy smile in her eyes. Her man was considerate and caring, and she married the right person.
Qin Huaidao got dressed and hurried out. Xiaoyu, who was sleeping in the outer room, thought something had happened. It would be rude to run out at this time. He quickly got up and shouted: "Uncle?"
"Bring some warm water in, and then bring a basin of warm water to Yan'er to wash her face and take off her makeup. Not removing her makeup before sleeping will hurt her skin. I'll go get something to eat." Qin Huaidao reminded.
"You should go as a slave. If you go out now, you will be laughed at." Xiaoyu quickly reminded.
People's words are scary, but Qin Huaidao is not afraid, but he doesn't want Li Xueyan to be embarrassed to see people in the future, so he stops and warns: "It's okay, go to the kitchen and get some food, and Yan'er can take whatever he likes."
"I know." Xiaoyu left even more happily when he saw that Qin Huaidao was so easy to talk to, unlike some of the disciples in the family who insisted on going their own way and looked down on the servants, and even gave them thoughtful instructions.
In the room, Li Xueyan heard it clearly. Seeing that Qin Huaidao was so considerate and thinking about himself, his heart was full of joy. When he saw Qin Huaidao come in, he sat up and called softly: "Mr. Lang, thank you!"
"Okay, thank me for what you are doing. As a family, don't say this word again in the future." Qin Huaidao warned him and sat down on the window eaves. Li Xueyan happened to adjust his sitting position, and his sleepiness opened up, revealing a large area of white snow. Qin Huaidao knew the taste of the food and suddenly couldn't control it.
.
Facing Qin Huaidao's aggressive gaze, Li Xueyan lowered her head shyly, not daring to face him, and shouted softly: "Lang Jun, please let Xueer rest for a while."
"Okay, we'll talk about it later when we're full." Qin Huaidao agreed with a smile. Thinking of something, his face straightened up and he said seriously: "Xue'er, since you and I are married, you are my woman, and we are a family. Some words
We have to have a heart-to-heart talk."
"Well, you are the head of the family and a person of great ability. No one in the entire Tang Dynasty can compare with you. It's not like me who doesn't know anything and just listens to you." Li Xueyan said sincerely.
"That's not what I meant."
Qin Huaidao became solemn and took Li Xueyan's hand. It was as soft as a bone, white and smooth. He couldn't help but stroke it, and continued: "You should know something about my situation, right?"
Li Xueyan's face turned red after being touched, but she did not struggle and became serious, saying: "I know that the Holy One is jealous, but because many people in the court support Lang Jun, and because Lang Jun has huge influence in the military and among the people,
I have to choose to be patient. Although the Holy Emperor is tolerant and won't do anything now, it will be hard to say in a few years. After all, Lang Jun's existence is a threat to the successor."
Qin Huaidao's face was startled, looking at Li Xueyan's unblinking eyes, he asked directly: "Is this your own idea, or did your father-in-law teach you?"
"I'm just guessing, I don't know, right?"
Qin Huaidao was overjoyed that he actually married a treasured girl. With such a high political sensitivity, she might be able to help him with some matters in the future. He sincerely smiled and said: "That's right. Do you have any solution?"
"There are three strategies. The worst strategy is to rebel, but the possibility of betrayal and separation is very high, so you cannot take this step unless you have to. The middle strategy is to hide in a deserted place and stay away from right and wrong, but the Holy One may not be reassured and cannot afford to gamble. The best strategy is
It's procrastination. In fact, the husband is already doing it. Making friends with the Chinese princes and the younger generation is a means of procrastination, but it's not enough. But with the talent of the husband, he must have already made a secret plan, right? "
"Hahaha!"
Qin Huaidao was overjoyed. This good political vision could just make up for the shortcomings of the family. However, he did not answer Li Xueyan's question. Instead, he smiled and said: "If you were a boy, your achievements would definitely be extraordinary. But fortunately you are a girl. Otherwise, where would I be?"
What a perfect match."
Li Xueyan was overjoyed to receive the recognition, and had already guessed that Qin Huaidao was secretly cultivating the power of self-preservation. He said with a smile: "You don't object to women doing this? They say that women are virtuous if they have no talent, and they are not allowed to participate in politics."
"I don't care what others say. We don't have such rules in our house, and women hold up half the sky." Qin Huaidao smiled and was in a good mood. He thought he was marrying a vase, but he didn't expect that he was a talented woman and a good wife.
At this time, the maid Xiaoyu came over with food.
The two of them tacitly agreed and said nothing more. Qin Huaidao drank a lot of wine, didn't eat much, and was a little hungry. He ate with him while chatting about the interesting things at the wedding banquet just now.
The two hearts are close to each other invisibly.
After eating and drinking, the two lay down again.
