Chapter 146 It's really that ugly monster
The bride in front of Prince Jin was burly and strong, and most importantly, her face was covered with acne. "Oh my God! It's a ghost!" He was so scared that he turned around and ran away.
This bride was hired by Liu, and she had expected Prince Jin to do this. She smiled as she watched him fleeing in embarrassment, and then returned to her serious expression.
"Hehua, is the young lady back?" Liu sat on the armchair and picked up the tea from the maid.
"Madam, Nan En has already sent people to greet you at the gate of the city, but the young lady hasn't been picked up yet." Nanny Xu was also anxious. Xia Weiwei hadn't come back yet. Could it be that this fat girl had to take the young lady's place to get married?
"My dear husband," Mrs. Liu stood up when she saw Xia Zhaofeng coming back home in his official uniform, "why don't you go change your clothes first?"
"Yes, good." Xia Zhaofeng took off his official uniform. Liu helped him. Seeing that no one was around, she asked, "Is my daughter not back yet?"
"Well, what should I do?" Liu was a little upset that her daughter couldn't go home. It was all because of Prince Jin, who made her child get married in such a hurry.
"If my daughter can't come back, let Pang Ya marry her in the wedding ceremony." Xia Zhaofeng also sighed. Because of this matter, he only had one daughter to marry in his life. He hadn't even seen the child before the marriage. He didn't have any joy of marrying his daughter.
"The auspicious time has arrived, please invite the groom!" The couple was startled by the ceremonial officer's shout and hurried out to the Rose Courtyard.
Yang Biao, wearing a big red flower on his chest, was led by the ceremonial officer, leading the bride who had already bowed three times and kowtowed nine times to her ancestors and elders. The woman next to him had a very thick waist, which was not like Xia Weiwei's figure, but he didn't care. It was not a real marriage, so why did he care who she was.
"The groom carries the bride on his back!" Yang Biao staggered. The woman looked quite heavy.
"The groom carries the bride!" Seeing that he did not move, the ceremonial officer shouted again. Yang Biao had no choice but to squat in front of the woman and let her lie on his back.
"Wow," fortunately, it was not as heavy as I imagined. I have already carried it on my back. After walking a short distance, I will reach the sedan chair. Yang Biao has been preparing for it in his mind and did not listen to the auspicious words said by the ceremonial officer at all.
"We're finally here!" When Yang Biao was about to give up, he saw the sedan chair stopped in front of the door. He hurried over and put the woman on its back into the sedan chair.
"The bride is getting ready!" After Xia Zhaofeng gave everyone bonus money, the ceremonial officer shouted, and the entire wedding procession headed towards Yang Biao's house.
"Master, it seems that the one you married is really that ugly one!" Lian Ming came close to Prince Jin. Needless to say, the bride's physique was definitely not the girl he saw in Anhe Hall that day.
"Well, go and have a look." What was Xia Zhaofeng up to? Jin Wangqian also found it strange. He came to Guangping Mansion because he heard that the prince was going to marry the daughter of the Xia family. He absolutely could not let them join forces and try to get rid of the person before his father granted the marriage.
The bridal sedan was about to arrive home, and the ceremonial officer was already holding a bucket filled with grains, beans, coins, colorful fruits, etc. He was chanting auspicious words and scattering them toward the door, and the children scrambled to pick them up.
"The bride is getting off the sedan!" A long red cloth was spread in front of the door, all the way to the main hall. The bride first mounted the saddle horse, then entered the middle door, and then rested for a while in a room with a curtain hanging.
"The auspicious time has arrived, the bride and groom are about to get married!" The ceremonial officer continued to shout out the wedding process.
Yang Biao wore a big red flower and the bride wore a veil. Hey, the bride seemed to be a different person. Yang Biao looked at her again in confusion and found that she was indeed a different person with a graceful figure.
At this time, the ceremonial officer stuffed a heart-shaped knot made of red and green satin into their hands, and the two of them held hands and walked slowly towards each other.
"Bow to heaven and earth!" The two men knelt on the mat facing the door, bowed three times, and then stood up.
"Bow to my parents!" Yang Biao's mother was not in the city, so she set up an altar and worshipped her ancestors.
"Husband and wife bow to each other!" The two bowed to each other and thus became husband and wife.
"Send them to the bridal chamber!" The two were surrounded by the crowd and taken to the bridal chamber.
The ceremonial officer asked Yang Biao to use a scale to lift the veil, and the bride revealed her face. It was really Xia Weiwei. The two of them worshipped their ancestors in the house again.
The ceremonial officer asked the newlyweds to sit on the bed, cut off a little bit of their hair, combed them together, then brought a bowl of food and asked them to eat together.
Xia Weiwei looked at the young man in front of her holding the bowl. She reached into the bowl with the soup spoon, scooped up the soup and put it into her mouth.
Seeing that she was eating so slowly, Yang Biao wondered how long it would take her to finish her food, so he anxiously finished it all in one go.
The ceremonial officer couldn't help laughing when he saw this. He went to the table and poured two glasses of wine each, brought them over, and asked the two newlyweds to drink half each first, and then exchange glasses and drink them all, which was called the wedding wine.
"Please come out and have a drink, sir." Yang Biao pulled the ceremonial officer out of the house, then thanked everyone who came to the banquet, said some polite words, toasted a few glasses of wine, and then returned to the bridal chamber.
"Why did the groom run away?" The people attending the wedding banquet were unhappy. "We must call the groom back to have a good drink with us!"
"Hey, do you know that a night of love is worth a thousand gold?"
"Yes, don't be so tactful." Everyone was talking at once. No one was familiar with Yang Biao. They only came here because they heard that they could eat and drink for free.
"What happened? Why did the person change?" Yang Biao returned to the bridal chamber and asked Xia Weiwei who was sitting on the bed.
Xia Weiwei smiled when she heard that, "You seem to like the girl from before, so I'll go find her for you." After saying that, she pretended to leave to find someone.
"Hey, don't go yet." Yang Biao hurriedly grabbed her hand and sat on the bed. He was almost exhausted from carrying the fat bride on his back.
"You know there's the part where we carry the bride on our backs, right? My waist is almost broken." Yang Biao held her hand and laid her on the bed, then jumped up again, "Why is this bed so uncomfortable?"
Xia Weiwei smiled and lifted the quilt. It turned out that the bed was covered with peanuts, red dates, millet and other things.
"Please clean all of this up. I'm really exhausted." Yang Biao really wanted to rest. Today's wedding was really tiring.
"Okay," Xia Weiwei put all the things on the bed in a basin and spread out the quilt. "Okay, you can rest if you are tired."
"Hey, when did you change it?" Yang Biao asked curiously, lying on the bed, supporting his head with his hands.
"We changed in the room with the curtains." Xia Weiwei sat on the bed, looked at him, and told him about her plan to rush back to the city to get married.
It turned out that Judge Cao had been ordered to go to Shangqiu County to pick up Xia Weiwei three days ago. When Yang Biao went to pick her up, she was on her way back to Guangping Prefecture. After a long period of rapid driving, the wheel of the carriage was accidentally broken by a stone on the roadside, and the coachman got off to repair it.
Xia Weiwei lifted the curtain and looked at the sun in the sky. It was almost noon. She was anxious, "Uncle Cao, how long will it take?"
"Miss, let's change a carriage and we should be able to get married in the afternoon." Seeing that she was actually anxious, Cao Tongpan saw that Yang Biao and the young lady had met before, and even a smart woman like Liu didn't notice the child's feelings. The young lady really deserved to be trained by Lord Xia, and she had her father's style of doing things, which was flawless.
"It was almost dusk when I arrived at the city. Uncle Cao knew your family, so he brought me here directly." After saying that, Xia Weiwei turned to look at Yang Biao again, and found that he had fallen asleep.
