Chapter 337: These two are a perfect match
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Shi Qingluo followed Xi Rong in a carriage back to the Southern marquis’ residence.
As soon as they entered the residence, Xi Rong grabbed them into a room.
Then, a few maids walked in with bright red embroidered wedding dresses.
Shi Qingluo was stunned when she saw the wedding dresses.
Was it what she thought it was?!!
Xi Rong smiled and asked, “Do you want to put on your own makeup, or do you want me to get someone to do it for you?”
Shi Qingluo raised an eyebrow. “When did the two of you form a team together?”
Xi Rong chuckled. “A month ago, your husband started preparing.
“He said that when you married him, he was still in a coma, so the two of you didn’t go through the ceremony.
“Today, let’s go through the ceremony.”
She winked at Shi Qingluo again. “Your husband sure knows how to play. When the top scorer is announced, it’s the wedding night. We understand.”
Shi Qingluo didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at her words. “That’s enough from you.”
Her heart was filled with sweetness.
She didn’t expect that although her little hubby didn’t mention it at all, he had already thought about it.
Previously, when she had just married into the Xiao family, she had never thought that she would have to live with Xiao Hanzheng.
She was thinking that if they got along, they would live together, and if they didn’t, they would part ways.
Therefore, she didn’t place too much importance on the wedding ceremony.
Now that she had fallen in love with Xiao Hanzheng, she naturally still hoped for a wedding.
Xi Rong held her hand. “Quickly come and apply your makeup. Very soon, the top scorer will come to pick you up.”
Shi Qingluo did not refuse and voluntarily sat in front of the dressing table.
She picked up the makeup that Xi Rong had already prepared and started applying her own makeup.
The bridal makeup that the others had put on was too thick.
She did not like it, and her young husband would not like it either.
After putting on her make-up, Shi Qingluo changed into the embroidered wedding dress that Xiao Hanzheng had asked someone to deliver to the Southern marquis’ residence.
A skillful old woman coiled her hair and put on a red veil.
Just as she was ready, she heard a servant girl run in and say, “The scholar is here!”
Then, Xi Rong brought some people to stop him.
She had to let Xiao Hanzheng pass the test before he could pick Shi Qingluo up.
But very soon, Xi Rong wanted to cry.
Xiao Hanzheng was really not a human.
Be it in the academics or martial arts, or the difficult questions that she posed, it was not difficult for him at all.
Very soon, he aced the test and rushed to the door.
When a woman got married, she was supposed to get her brother or cousin to tag along with her.
But Shi Qingluo’s family was not in the capital, so no one tagged along with her.
Xiao Hanzheng also did not want others to tag along with his little wife.
Thus, he directly barged into the door.
His eyes were filled with warmth as he looked at Shi Qingluo. “My wife, I’m here to pick you up.”
Shi Qingluo’s head was covered and she could not see what’s in front, but she immediately sensed her little husband’s direction.
“Husband, I’m here.” She raised her hand in that direction.
Xiao Hanzheng walked over quickly and held Shi Qingluo’s hand.
He leaned close to her ear and asked in a low voice, “My wife, do you want a princess hug or do you want to be carried behind my back?”
Shi Qingluo did not hesitate. “Behind your back.”
If he gave her a princess hug, it would be quite embarrassing for so many people to see.
Xiao Hanzheng naturally gave her everything she wanted.
He immediately squatted down. “My wife, we are going home.”
Shi Qingluo jumped onto his back and said, “Okay, let’s go home!”
Although her young husband often carried her on his back, she still felt that something was different this time.
Soon, Xiao Hanzheng carried Shi Qingluo out of the Southern marquis manor.
After putting her on the bridal sedan chair, he rode his horse towards the Xiao residence.
Xi Rui and the others followed him to pick up the bride.
Along the way, Xi Rui and the others were sprinkling sugar.
Those who liked to join in the fun in the capital had gone to watch the top scorer parade on the streets earlier.
Now that they saw that the top scorer was getting married, many gathered around again.
Both sides of the streets were filled with people.
“Isn’t the top scorer already married? Why is he getting married again? Could it be that he changed his mind as soon as he became the top scorer?”
“How is that possible? Not only did he not change his mind, he was also very affectionate towards his wife.”
“Back then, the top scorer…”
Thus, someone told others about how Xiao Hanzheng was still unconscious when he got married.
After hearing this, everyone lamented Shi Qingluo’s boldness.
She offered to marry him when she wanted to. The top scholar did not forget that she did the chongxi.
It was the first time others had heard of a make-up wedding and a new ceremony.
Their reputations also became better.
At the same time, many women envied Shi Qingluo. It was too blissful to meet a husband like Xiao Hanzheng.
He actually held a make-up wedding after the chongxi to hold the wedding ceremony.
They were so sour.
In particular, many people went to snatch the candies that Xi Rui and the others had sprinkled.
They were all nougat candies, fruit candies, and milk candies that were not cheap from the shops here.
Because of this, everyone sent their blessings to the top scholar and Shi Qingluo one after another.
Currently, there were already more than ten tables filled with Xiao Hanzheng’s friends and colleagues.
Other than Xiao Hanzheng’s teacher, seniors, and his teacher’s friends, there were also examinees who had a good relationship with him.
When Xiao Hanzheng and Shi Qingluo reached the entrance of the Xiao residence, Xiao Hanzheng dismounted and kicked the bridal sedan.
Shi Qingluo also kicked it.
Then, she stretched out a hand, which was instantly held by Xiao Hanzheng.
He did not use the red silk to hold his wife’s hand.
Instead, he directly held her hand and entered the door.
Then, the two of them began worshiping in the hall as part of the marriage ceremony.
Only Mother Xiao sat on the chair there.
Her face was flushed red and happy, and her eyes revealed joyfulness.
Seeing her son and daughter-in-law living harmoniously together, she felt relieved.
After the ceremony, Xiao Hanzheng brought Shi Qingluo to their room.
He removed Shi Qingluo’s red veil.
Shi Qingluo looked at him with a watery face.
Xiao Hanzheng smiled and praised, “My wife, you are so beautiful today!”
Shi Qingluo smiled and said, “You can praise me every day from now on.”
“Okay, I’ll praise you every day from now on.”
Their conversation made Xi Rui and the others speechless.
They were at a loss for words to comment on Shi Qingluo.
Other women who were praised by their hubby would be shy, wouldn’t say anything or thank them.
She actually wanted Xiao Hanzheng to praise her every day.
More importantly, Xiao Hanzheng even agreed to it. It was really amazing…
Xi Rui said, “These two are a perfect match.”
Liang Youxiao said, “One is willing to hit and the other is willing to suffer. Of course, they are a perfect match.”
At the same time, the two of them were a little envious.
They wondered if it was time for them to get married?
However, it was very difficult to find a woman that they liked.
Hearing their conversations, Shi Qingluo was speechless.
“Enough, you guys are actually eavesdropping.”
Xi Rui laughed and roared, “This is a custom.”
He jeered again, “Why the two of you haven’t spent your night together yet?”
When Shi Qingluo heard this, her face turned red for a rare moment. “Go away!”
Xiao Hanzheng looked at his little wife whose face was covered in a thin layer of red, and his heart was burning with passion.
Xi Rui had always liked to cause a ruckus. “Go away? What’s there to go away? Old Xiao, hurry up and go out to drink. We won’t go home until we’re drunk today.”
Liang Youxiao smiled and said, “Yes, yes. Old Xiao, come and toast. You won’t be able to escape today.”
This time, even Qi Yiyang joined in the fun. “That’s right. Old Xiao, come out and have a drink.”
Xiao Hanzheng suppressed his anger and said helplessly to his wife, “Wife, I’ll go out to toast. You should eat something first.”
Shi Qingluo also knew that there were more than ten tables of people outside waiting for her husband to toast. “Okay, go then.”
As for drinking less, she didn’t say it.
Today was a big day, it was good that everyone was happy.
Moreover, with those few people outside, her husband wouldn’t be able to escape this banquet.
