Chapter 46
After the Lantern Festival, Yan Li's friend Ye Mozhi personally brought Daiyu into his home in a car, and the Ye family had already cleaned up the yard for Daiyu, and Zijuan and others came to take care of her.According to the customs at the time, Daiyu solemnly gave Madam Ye a big gift, which was regarded as officially recognizing Madam Ye as a godmother. When Madam Ye saw Daiyu's extraordinary appearance and noble demeanor, she was very happy, and she felt pity and love in her heart. Helping Daiyu up, she said with tears in her eyes, "My dear daughter, Li'er has already told me about you. You don't despise me as a vulgar old woman, and you are willing to recognize me as a godmother. I can only wish for a hundred things. Here in the future It means that you belong to your natal family, and Mo Zhi is your own brother, I promise that Li'er will not dare to bully you even a little bit, otherwise I will let your brother vent your anger on you!"
Because Ye Mozhi was the same age as Yan Li, he had already married a wife and had children, and his temperament was much calmer and more mature than Yan Li's. Hearing what his mother said at this time, he also smiled and echoed: "Yes, my sister will keep this place from now on. Treat it as your own family, and I guarantee that no one will dare to bully you from now on, not even Yan Li. Of course, if you don’t understand anything after getting married, feel free to ask your sister-in-law, she won’t dare to neglect you at all!” The wife next to her After hearing this, Mrs. Wu also smiled and tried to agree.
Daiyu was already so grateful that tears filled her eyes, she bowed down again and said, "Thank you mother and elder brother and sister-in-law for taking me in as an orphan and giving me a home. Daiyu has nothing to repay, but only prays to God to bless my mother in good health. Long live a hundred years, bless my brother and sister-in-law for a lifetime of prosperity, and bless the Ye family for a lifetime of safety!" After hearing this, Mrs. Ye embraced Daiyu emotionally and shed tears.
Yan Li was afraid that the night would be long and dreamy, so he asked someone to propose marriage on the third day Daiyu lived in Ye's house. Ye's family also followed the custom and completed the rules and customs for Daiyu before marriage, such as Nacai, asking names, and Najib. , until the two families agreed to set the wedding ceremony on February [-]th.
Because Daiyu's birthday is the twelfth day of February, just before they get married, Mrs. Ye asked Ye Mozhi to carefully prepare a birthday party for Daiyu early on.On that day, except for Yan Li, who was not suitable to see the bride before getting married, the rest of the Ye family, Zijuan, Ling'er, Hui'er and others added up to a large and lively house, and Ye Mozhi even invited her to come. I joined a theater troupe, and everyone watched the theater while eating, and it lasted for a whole day before they dispersed.
When she was resting in the evening, Daiyu had a lot of feelings, so she wrote on the paper with a pen: "How long is life? The death is like the morning frost. There is no heavy time, and the flowers are no longer sunny." (Lu Ji's "Short Rest"). "
Zijuan came to have a look and persuaded: "The girl is no longer alone now, so don't write these sad sentences again."
Daiyu shook her head with a smile and said: "It's just a few words from the predecessors lamenting the passing of time, and it doesn't mean much sadness." After a short pause, Fang said again, "Don't worry, the old me is too fragile. , I have reflected and decided to be more optimistic in the future, otherwise I will always be so negative and affect other people."
Zijuan nodded and said: "What the girl said is very true, so, just forget about the unhappy things of those unhappy people in the past, and just think about the good things in the future, so that the girl will be in a better mood, and those old and old diseases said Maybe it will be fine too!" Daiyu smiled, nodded noncommittally, and went to rest with her.
In the next few days, everyone in the Ye family was very busy, and when the day of welcoming the bride came, everything was finally arranged properly.In the evening, Yan Li's wedding party arrived in a mighty manner, and Mrs. Ye personally took care of sending Daiyu, the phoenix crown and xiapei, to the sedan chair. In this way, the Ye family had completed all the tasks of their daughter's marriage.
The welcoming team went all the way, they didn't go back to Yan's old house, but went straight to Yan Li's new house.At this time, the new house has been completely decorated by Yan Ju, with lanterns and colorful red silk fluttering everywhere, and everyone is beaming from top to bottom.
When Daiyu was supported to come to the hall, even though she was separated by the Xipa, Daiyu also noticed something strange, because the chair where Yan Li's mother was supposed to sit was empty!
Zijuan also turned pale with fright, but Yan Li kept a calm face, worshiped Daiyu as usual, and then sent her to the bridal chamber.After Yan Li came out of the bridal chamber, Daiyu asked Zijuan for confirmation: "Zijuan, Madam didn't come, did she?"
Zijuan thought that the marriage was a foregone conclusion since the hall had already paid her respects anyway, so she no longer concealed it: "Yes, Madam didn't come, but there were two more ladies, presumably they should be the son's sisters."
Daiyu was silent for a while, then finally nodded and said: "In this way, my previous suspicions are really confirmed. ——The lady over there has never let go, he has been hiding it from us."
Zijuan hurriedly persuaded: "No matter what, your marriage is over anyway, other unpleasant things, let's settle them slowly later!"
Daiyu smiled bitterly and said, "At this point, there is no other way but to take one step at a time!"
Yan Li spent a while mingling with many guests outside, then returned back to the new house impatiently, Xi Niang handed over the scale, Yan Li excitedly picked up Xipa, revealing Daiyu's more shy and beautiful face than usual .
After Zijuan and the others withdrew, Yan Li sat next to her, looked at her carefully for a long time, and asked with a smile: "These etiquettes are very troublesome, are you exhausted?"
Daiyu shook her head with a smile and said, "It's enough to torment people, but I don't feel tired!"
Yan Li nodded and said: "It's good if you're not tired. I'm always afraid that you won't be able to take it anymore. Anyway, we are already a formal couple today. You should rest early after a day of tiredness. So drink the carnival wine first, and then Let's eat something!" After speaking, he took Daiyu's hand and led her to sit at the table.
After a day of tossing, Daiyu was really hungry.Yan Li filled the Heying cup with wine and handed it to Daiyu.Daiyu took it, but she didn't intend to drink, but raised her eyes and said seriously: "Today is our big day, I don't want to make things too difficult for you, I just want to ask you: Madam didn't come, did you?"
In the past, Yan Li was most afraid of Daiyu's suspicion about his mother, but now that he is married, he doesn't have any worries, so he simply said frankly: "Yes, in fact, her old man repented years ago, and because of this, I became an unfilial son. , I haven’t been back for years, just because I don’t want to lose you again! Now, my wish is fulfilled, are you willing to accompany me to face the next challenge?”
Daiyu was very grateful for his frankness, so she raised her cup high, beckoning him to join her, drank the wine in the cup, and said: "Since I have married you, I am naturally willing to face all difficulties with you. There is just one thing you have to promise me, if there is any embarrassment from now on, don't hold it in alone, say it, let's face it together, I believe there is nothing we can't solve!"
"Okay, I'll listen to you!" Yan Li excitedly hugged Daiyu into his arms, and Daiyu no longer resisted his closeness as before. Although she was a little embarrassed at first, she gradually let go of her mood , gently stretched out his arms around his strong waist, and the two embraced for a long time like this, as if this moment is forever.
