Chapter 1302: Chapters 1308-1309: Jiujin Gets Married (4)
She swatted at his groping hands as she threatened him, "If you don’t agree to it, don’t even think about touching me again!"
...
Liu Xi was then at a loss. It was the third watch, the time for others to be on duty.
However, when he came to serve the next morning, the Empress Dowager had disappeared, and The Emperor’s face was as dark as a water basin. It was unclear whether it was because she had refused him or because his daughter-in-law had been lost...
...
After a whole night of persuasion and insistence, Cai Wei finally managed to leave the Palace in the latter half of the night. Today was the great celebration of Jiujin and An Ziyi, and she had promised Aunt Zhou that she must personally attend to offer congratulations.
By the time she arrived at Qingyun Town, it was already broad daylight. Cai Wei retracted the White Tiger back to In Space and walked into the town.
Today, Qingyun Town was exceptionally bustling, people on the streets all buzzing about the An Family’s daughter’s marriage.
It was said that Uncle An and Old Madam An had prepared a bridal train of eighteen bearers for Miss Ziyi. This was considered the most generous dowry in Qingyun Town. Usually, three or four boxes of goods were not uncommon for a wealthy family’s marriage, but the An Family had prepared a full eighteen boxes, and every box was said to be packed to the brim. Everyone thought Jiujin was such a lucky fellow, not only did he marry a beauty akin to a fairy, but he also gained a huge amount of silver along with it!
Jiujin was indifferent to how much the bridal gifts amounted to. Since he had given up on Cai Wei, he felt that marrying anyone was the same. Thus, he was neither happy, sad, angry, nor resentful about other people’s envy and gossip. Early in the morning, he got ready and led the Zhou Family to An Mansion to receive the bride.
It was a major event in Qingyun Town to marry off the An Family’s daughter—people of status in Qingyun Town gathered at the An Family’s home with their gifts to congratulate Old Master An.
By then, An Ziyi had already dressed up. She was in a brand-new red peony embroidered wedding dress, her head covered. Surrounded by maids and the matchmaker, she bid farewell to the Old Madame, her father and mother, and boarded the bridal sedan, which then proceeded toward Goldfish Lane with music and fanfare.
Jiujin, wearing a red satin robe adorned with red silk flowers, rode a horse in front of the bridal sedan.
This naive and honest young man, after spending a good half year in the Business Sea, had matured a lot. His face wore a simple, honest smile, frequently bowing and expressing thanks to the fellow villagers on both sides of the street.
The An Family’s eighteen dowry bearers followed grandly behind the bride’s sedan, captivating the townspeople of Qingyun Town, who all remarked on Jiujin’s good fortune. Jiujin, hearing this, took no particular notice, maintaining his usual naive smiling demeanor, bowing and greeting.
It wasn’t until he saw the face he had longed for day and night at his family’s entrance that his expression suddenly changed, and he stiffened in place.
"New Groom, come on, kick the sedan door open—"
Someone shouted, but Jiujin, as if he hadn’t heard, just stared directly with his dark eyes at Cai Wei atop the stairs, his expression slightly bewildered.
Cai Wei sighed helplessly in her heart. This foolish boy, he still hadn’t given up on her, really!
To avoid disrupting the wedding procession, she whispered to Aunt Zhou and quietly left.
