They were just like an ordinary couple, walking slowly on the path leading to their home.
On this day, Mianmian and Qing'er didn't come back until dark. When they came back, they brought a large basket of fruits, all for Du Wanchun.
Du Wanchun also made their favorite corn cakes and hawthorn candies.
The family sat around the small courtyard at night, laughing constantly.
As the days pass by. ?.?????.???
Soon it was the day before Mianmian's wedding.
Madam Wu and Wei Xun arrived at Changliu Village ten days in advance. They had sent people to rebuild a large house in the Wu family's old house a few months ago.
This house is where Qing'er and Mianmian will live in the future.
Madam Wu and Wei Xun came to the house and started decorating it early.
On the day of the wedding, they would start from here in a sedan chair and go to the Mianmian family to welcome the bride. Then they would go around the village and then come to the Wu family to worship the child and get married.
Du Wanchun often couldn't sleep well these days, and he still couldn't bear the thought of Mianmian getting married.
Zhou Ruiyuan thought about it, "Even if Mianmian gets married, he will stay in the same village with us. Why would he be reluctant to do so?"
Du Wanchun said slowly: "What if Qing'er wants to return to Beidi fiefdom in the future?"
Zhou Ruiyuan smiled and said, "Then the two of us will travel around and enjoy themselves. If you see me every day, you won't miss them."
Du Wanchun laughed together, "Who wants to miss you?"
Zhou Ruiyuan leaned into her ear and whispered a few words.
Du Wanchun laughed again.
The two of them were joking.
Eunuch Zhang came to the door and called: "Master, madam, do you see who is here?"
When Du Wanchun heard the call, he stood up immediately and strode towards the door, only to see Yi'er.
Yi'er was wearing a silver-white gown, which made him more stable.
This year he became emperor in the capital, doing better than Zhou Ruiyuan, and now his sister is getting married.
After he settled matters in the court, he took Cheng Wan'er incognito on a patrol to Changliu Village.
When he saw Du Wanchun, he quickly saluted and said, "Mother."
Du Wanchun stepped forward and helped him up, "Yier, have you been hard these days?"
Although there were many affairs in the DPRK, Yi'er was doing it with gusto. He smiled and said: "It's not hard, but it will be harder later in the day."
Cheng Wan'er has to take care of all kinds of trivial matters in the harem, but she is very smart and has already been able to handle them with ease.
She followed them and saluted: "Mother."
Du Wanchun stretched out his other hand to help her up, "Wan'er is indeed a little haggard, Yi'er, you have to take good care of her."
Yi'er smiled and said: "Mom, don't worry, the minister asked me to choose a concubine a few days ago, but I didn't even agree."
Du Wanchun never specifically warned about this matter.
She knew that Yi'er was not a changeless person, and he would definitely treat Wan'er well.
Mianmian happened to come out of the house and saw Yi'er striding towards her, "Brother!"
Yi'er hugged her and said with a smile, "Big brother is here to bring you a gift this time."
Mianmian looked behind him, "What gift?"
Yi'er turned around and called to the people behind, "Bring the things up quickly."
Mianmian took a closer look and saw boxes of gold and silver jewelry, all of the styles Mianmian liked.
Du Wanchun was shocked as he watched from the side.
Yi'er smiled and said, "Do you like it? But these are not gifts from me, Yu'er gave them to you."
At this time, Yu'er also came from the door, bringing with him the wedding dress that took half a year to embroider.
The wedding dress was packed in a large mahogany box.
He first saluted Du Wanchun and Zhou Ruiyuan, "Father, mother."
Du Wanchun saw him walking in the dust and quickly asked him to get up.
Yu'er said to the big boxes in the yard: "Mianmian, these are given to you by your second brother. Don't be deceived by your elder brother."
Mianmian walked up to Yu'er, looked at the exquisite wedding dress, and said with a smile, "This wedding dress is so beautiful."
Yu'er was very happy to hear it, "As long as you like it, I'm afraid you won't like it."
Du Wanchun snickered from the side and said: "I see you are not afraid that the wedding dress Mianmian will not like it, you are afraid that the woman who wears the wedding dress Mianmian will not like it."
When Yu'er was told the central issue, he turned his head shyly, and his eyes fell on Yi'er, "Brother, don't just talk about my congratulatory gift, where is your congratulatory gift?"
At this time, Cheng Wan'er slowly took out a small box from his hand.
