Chapter 176: Chapter 129: Wedding Night (End of Volume 1)

As Wang Shouzhe’s wedding procession made its way back,

the Main Residence of the Ping’an Wang Family

was also bustling with activity, as the entire family had sprung into action, each person responsible for their own tasks.

Some female relatives, such as the eldest sister-in-law and the fourth aunt, were in charge of the kitchen and the arrangement of dishes and seating. Even Wang Luoqiu, Wang Licui, and Wang Luo Jing were involved in the work, each responsible for various things.

However, Wang Licui originally wanted to manage the kitchen or the food supplies, but was unanimously rejected by everyone.

Instead, she was appointed to oversee the entire setup of the banquet on the square, which was meant for common folks and most of the extended family members who didn’t qualify to enter the Main Residence and participate in the wedding banquet.

The Wang family was going to set up a banquet that lasted for three days and nights, welcoming all comers, a truly generous and impressive gesture.

Some distinguished guests were arranged to be seated in the open-air section of the Wang family’s central courtyard, which were the primary seats.

Then, for even more esteemed visitors, such as the Clan Leader, Shopkeeper Qian, the Protector of Lei Town, and various Old Ancestors of different clans, Xiaohan, the Old Ancestor, would personally attend to them and entertain them.

Their feasts were arranged in several elegant halls.

As for Old Ancestor Longyan, she had never been fond of socializing, so she was only arranged to make an appearance during Shouzhe’s wedding ceremony. Guests from all quarters arrived at the Wang family residence in succession.

The men of the family, one by one, assumed the responsibility of reception, all radiating joy—Shouzhe’s marriage was a major event, after all.

It also symbolized the rise and continuation of the family’s fortune.

The Wang family of today was no longer the Wang family of the past.

A family with three Spiritual Platforms.

Dominating Ping’an Town singlehandedly, such a family had the air of rising and rejuvenating.

Soon after, Wang Shouzhe’s wedding procession arrived at the Ping’an Wang Family at the same time as the Liu Family’s bridal escort.

This naturally led to a series of lively ceremonies and then the wedding vows in the main hall.

Gongsun Hui had already dressed up, sitting proudly at the main seat, her face full of happiness. As the father’s first wife and a widow, today, her status was the highest.

For Shouzhe’s marriage, she was naturally overjoyed and secretly shed tears of happiness. Over the years, since she had remarried into the Wang family and had raised Shouzhe and Luo Yi, it had been far from easy.

As a stepmother, of course, it was much more difficult than for an ordinary mother,

Following this was the ceremony of the wedding vows. This ceremony was indeed a very lively part of the event, with all the relatives and friends sending blessings.

Afterward, the bride was the first to be sent into the bridal chamber.

As the groom, and as the head of the household, Wang Shouzhe still needed to socialize with the guests outside.

Some close-knit families had not just clan leaders and relatives arriving, but even Old Ancestors made quiet appearances, personally congratulating Wang Shouzhe.

This level of face was not common for the marriage of an ordinary family heir. For these relations and allies, Wang Shouzhe naturally could not neglect them. Thus, the festivities continued until the evening.

After a day of socializing, even Wang Shouzhe, who was nearing the Level Eight of the Vital Energy Refining Realm, felt somewhat worn out.

But fortunately, everything had concluded.

After entertaining the guests, Wang Shouzhe, slightly tipsy, returned to his courtyard with relaxed and joyful steps.

In the master bedroom,

the lights were bright and festive, the red candles burning intensely.

The bride, Liu Ruolan, sat obediently on the bed, patiently waiting for her husband to return.

The bed was covered with a bright red quilt, scattered with dates, lotus seeds, Qian Gold, and more than a dozen dazzling Spirit Stones.

“My lady, you have worked hard,” Wang Shouzhe said, suppressing his excitement as he stepped forward and bowed deeply.

“Husband,” Liu Ruolan replied softly with a hint of shyness in her voice. Next was the unveiling and the sharing of the Conjugal Cup Wine.

These had already been prepared by others and were placed on the low table beside the bed.

After receiving Liu Ruolan’s consent, Wang Shouzhe lifted the Jade Ruyi and said, “My lady, please forgive my forwardness.”

He then gently lifted her red veil.

What he saw was a youthful and beautiful face.

Adorned in a bridal headdress and robes, she had a lovely oval-shaped face, a broad forehead like cicada’s wings, gracefully arched eyebrows, and almond- shaped eyes that were clear yet shy and moist.

She clenched her hands tightly, her head bowed, not daring to look at Wang Shouzhe.

Wang Shouzhe was stunned for a few moments, unable to avert his gaze.

As it turned out, this was his first time seeing Liu Ruolan.

For someone who had lived two lives, this was his first time marrying a bride— and such a great beauty at that, which made him feel like he was in a daze, as if it weren’t quite real.

“Husband!” Liu Ruolan trembled slightly, as if anxious about something, and said weakly, “Do I not look nice to you?”

“You look beautiful, very beautiful. My lady is like a Goddess from heaven. To have married you, I still feel somewhat unreal, afraid that you might ride the wind away,” Wang Shouzhe replied, nodding repeatedly.

His words reminded Liu Ruolan of his frivolous poem, causing her to bury her head even deeper into her clothing in embarrassment.

“My lady’s dress is extremely beautiful, but the rouge and powder are not good for your skin if left on for too long,” Wang Shouzhe said.

As a transmigrator, Wang Shouzhe knew that it wasn’t good for a woman to sleep with makeup on, and thus he wasn’t in a rush to drink the Conjugal Cup Wine. He immediately fetched some warm water and a towel, helped her remove the bridal crown, and took off the decorative robes.

“Husband, where is it customary for a man to help a woman remove her makeup?” Liu Ruolan was moved by Wang Shouzhe’s attentiveness, yet felt a bit apprehensive, “Maybe we should call Qiao’er from the side room to help.” “No matter, in the privacy of our chamber, there’s no need for such formalities,” Wang Shouzhe replied.

He didn’t want anyone else to disturb them and personally helped her remove her makeup. In no time at all, her natural beauty was revealed, her skin so delicate that it seemed it could be broken with a puff, her cheeks blushing with shy radiance.
