438 Eldest Brother Gets Married
After returning to Yong County from Chuzhou, Liu Sanniang had been staying at home obediently.
In a few days, it would be the sixth of June, the day of her eldest brother’s wedding.
After a few twists and turns, Liu Dalang and Tang An were finally getting married. In the future, when Liu Sanniang was not at home, Tang An could accompany Madam Wei.
Liu Dalang was getting married, so Madam Wei took leave from the restaurant and stayed at home to decorate the house along with Liu Sanniang.
Liu Zhi’er and Liu Hui also came over to help.
Liu Ju’er also came. It had been a long time since they last met. Madam Wei didn’t need them to do anything. She just let them chat with Liu Sanniang in the room.
She took out the fruits to serve the girls while she went to do the paper cuttings.
Liu Ju’er was a little embarrassed. “I was meant to come and help.”
Liu Hui held Liu Ju’er’s hand. “Ju’er, how is your life? Does he treat you well?”
Liu Ju’er nodded with a smile. “Qingshan treats me very well. I’m very happy.”
Liu Ju’er looked at Liu Sanniang. She was the one whom she was most thankful towards.
Liu Zhi’er also smiled. “That’s good. In a few years, we’ll probably have children…”
Liu Ju’er looked shy. Indeed, in a few years, they would all be 20 years old. It was normal for them to have children at that age. Life passed year by year like this.
Liu Zhi’er looked at Liu Sanniang. “Sanniang, after you become a psychic, will you choose to have children?”
Liu Sanniang was stunned for a moment. “I don’t know either.”
This thought hadn’t occurred to her. If she could, she’d want to have children. But that would be a long way off for her. She wasn’t done with what she had to do yet. Until then, she couldn’t think about anything else.
Chu Yan should understand her. He had said that they were the same kind of people taking on the same path.
Liu Hui held Liu Sanniang’s arm. “Sanniang, you’re amazing. You’ll be in charge of making Safety Talismans for the rest of our lives.”
Liu Sanniang smiled. “No problem.”
She was getting more and more skillful with drawing talismans.
The day passed as they chatted and laughed.
In the blink of an eye, it was the sixth of June.
At the family banquet, all the clan members came over to help.
Liu San’s family also came, but they remained silent.
The blow from Liu Yinniang’s death was too heavy. It would take a long time for them to recover.
Liu Dalang was wearing a red wedding suit and looked fresh and handsome. He rode his horse to pick up the bride.
Tang Village was also filled with joy.
Tang Yuan was like a little adult. He had everything prepared early in the morning. When there were only Tang An and Tang Yuan in the room, Tang An’s eyes turned red. “Yuan.”
Tang Yuan smiled. “Sister, you’re the bride today. You can’t cry. When my Brother-in-law comes, I’ll carry you to the bridal sedan.”
The Liu Family was a good family and will not mistreat his sister. Tang Yuan could not be happier. A red sedan chair and a proper wedding was the image he had in mind of his sister’s wedding day.
Tang An could not bear to be separated from Tang Yuan.
When the time arrived, Tang Yuan bent down and said, “Sister, come up. I will carry you to the sedan chair.”
When a woman got married, she had to have a brother or father carry her out of the door. This was a custom. His shoulders were still very narrow, but one day, he would grow up.
He carried Tang An out step by step and sent her to the bridal sedan.
After Tang An got into the bridal sedan, Liu Dalang rode back on his horse.
Liu Dalang brought the bride home and soon, it was time to perform the formal wedding ceremony.
Everyone looked at Liu Dalang with admiration. He and Liu Erlang were both handsome and tall. The Liu family had good genes.
Most of the men in the Liu clan were tall. Now that there was a school in the clan, even the other unmarried men in the clan had become popular candidates in the eyes of the matchmakers.
The food and wine were plentiful, and everyone was very happy that night.
After the wedding banquet ended, Liu Sanniang returned to her room.
Madam Wei chatted and laughed with a few women in the clan. As they spoke, they even went to eavesdrop outside Liu Dalang’s room.
Inside the room, Liu Dalang and Tang An were at a loss as to what to do.
Even though Tang An and Liu Dalang were already very familiar with each other, at this moment, they were still quite embarrassed.
Liu Dalang was the same. He pretended to be drunk. After all, he had drunk a lot. He reached out and hugged Tang An. “Rest early. You’ve had a long day.”
He wasn’t in a hurry to consummate the marriage.
He still had a lifetime with Tang An. There was no need to rush it. Tang An was still thin and weak. She needed time to improve her health.
Since there was no movement in the room for a long time, Madam Wei and the others were bored and they left.
The next morning, Tang An woke up early, but Madam Wei was even earlier than her. Madam Wei looked at her and said, “Why didn’t you sleep for a little longer? Sanniang hasn’t woken up yet.”
Tang An replied gently. “I wanted to get up early and cook. Let me cook, Mother.”
Madam Wei smiled. “We don’t have so many rules at home. Just live well with Dalang. There’s no need to feel obliged to do anything.”
Tang An nodded. “I will.”
Since the Liu family was so good to her, she would naturally repay them wholeheartedly. Liu Dalang was her husband. If he was good to her, she should be good to him too.
Seeing that Tang An was so obedient, Madam Liu Wei felt relieved, but she also hoped that Tang An could have some character.
Madam Wei could not help but think of Liu Erlang again. She was worried. That brat was so picky. She did not know who he would choose in the end.
The next day, Liu Sanniang started preparing to return to the capital.
Madam Wei didn’t want her to leave, but she knew that she couldn’t stop her.
Madam Wei looked at Chu Yan. “Yan, I’ll leave Sanniang to you.”
Chu Yan’s expression was gentle and he nodded reassuringly. “Auntie, don’t worry. I’ll protect her well.”
He would protect her with his life.
Liu Sanniang smiled at Madam Wei and hugged her. “Mother, don’t worry. I’ll be fine.”
This was a responsibility that she could not shirk. No matter how difficult it was, she would not back down because she had her family behind her.
She became even more determined.
Madam Wei patted General Black’s head. “General Black, good dog, protect Sanniang.”
General Black rubbed against Madam Wei’s palm and whimpered, as if telling Madam Wei not to worry.
