Chapter 526 - 526 Su Chong's Wedding
526 Su Chong’s Wedding
Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao had already had two experiences in organizing marriages, so they handled Su Chong’s wedding well.
What made Madam Zhao feel different was that Sun Baoqian had become her helper.
Sun Baoqian’s politeness made Madam Zhao like her even more.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law got along well and carefully received every guest who came.
Seeing that the auspicious time was almost here, the bridal escort team set off from the Su residence.!!
Su Chong was riding a bay horse and wearing a wedding outfit. He couldn’t help but smile. Su Hua, who was beside him, smiled. “People say that the day a woman gets married is the most beautiful. I think the groom isn’t bad either. Big Brother hasn’t even closed his mouth today.”
Su Hua teased. Su Chong smiled and said, “Brother Hua, aren’t you the same? You didn’t close your mouth when you got married. You were smiling so much.”
The brothers looked at each other and smiled.
“That’s why I said that it’s not only the women who look the best on this day. It’s also the men.”
In any case, he felt that his big brother’s body seemed to be glowing today. He could not hide his smugness.
Su Chong smiled and said, “I think that’s right.”
He was in a good mood.
Today was his wedding day with Lin Yaoyao. It was also his first day as a husband. It was a new journey and a new beginning.
To him, everything was new. How could he not be in a good mood when he welcomed everything new with the person he liked?
The two of them looked at each other and smiled. They had already started a family. They might split up in the future, or they might not see each other for a long time. But so what? They were brothers. The closest brothers. No matter where they were, they were the closest people.

Lin Yaoyao had already changed into her wedding clothes. Madam Chen held back her tears and combed her hair.
“Once combed to the end, there’s no need to worry about wealth.
Twice combed to the end, there’s no illnesses or worries.
Thrice combed to the end, many children and long-lives.
Again combed to the end, harmony between husband and wife.
Twice combed to the end, stay and soar together.
Thrice combed to the end, forever forming a heartfelt love.”
Madam Chen choked and said words of blessings. Then, she gently tied Lin Yaoyao’s hair and combed it before putting on her makeup.
All of this was done by Madam Chen herself.
Lin Yaoyao’s eyes were also filled with tears. She looked at Madam Chen in front of her and seemed to have countless things to say, but when she opened her mouth, she was speechless.
Madam Chen was old and her hair was white. At her age, it shouldn’t be so white.
All of this was because he had worried too much about her.
“Don’t cry. It won’t look good if your makeup is ruined. Today is your wedding. Mother is very happy.”
Madam Chen gently stroked Lin Yaoyao’s cheek. She had been looking forward to this day even in her dreams.
Her precious daughter was finally going to have a family. This was a critical moment in her life. She had to be beautiful.
The faint sound of gongs and drums could be heard outside. The bridal escort team was getting closer and closer.
Lin Pingsheng, who was waiting outside, asked at the right time, “The people who are here to welcome the bride are almost here. Are you done?”
Madam Chen smiled and said, “Mother will open the door and let your father see you too.”
Madam Chen turned around to open the door.
Lin Yaoyao sat in front of the dressing table, her eyes filled with shyness.
She had had some misfortunes in her life, but she had always been happy because her parents had given her so much love.
Now that she was getting married, she was also getting married with all their blessings. To her, this was undoubtedly the best and luckiest.
Madam Chen opened the door and Lin Pingsheng entered the room. He glanced at Lin Yaoyao with a kind gaze.
“Yaoyao is very beautiful today. She’s the second beautiful bride I’ve seen in my life.”
Lin Pingsheng said with a smile. He could not help but tear up. He could only avoid his gaze and turn around. He raised his hand and quietly wiped his tears.
“Father, who’s the first?”
Lin Yaoyao asked.
Lin Pingsheng turned around and gently hugged Madam Chen. He smiled at Lin Yaoyao and said, “The first one is, of course, your mother.”
Madam Chen smiled, and so did Lin Yaoyao.
Firecrackers sounded outside. Lin Pingsheng’s eyes could not help but turn red again. He said to Madam Chen, “Madam, put a red bridal veil on Yaoyao. It’s time for me to carry her to get married.”
Madam Chen nodded and covered Lin Yaoyao with a red bridal veil.
Lin Pingsheng bent down and said, “Yaoyao, come. I’ll carry you out.”
The cheers of the bride came from outside. “The auspicious time is here. Hurry up and carry the bride out.”
Lin Yaoyao lay on Lin Pingsheng’s back, her mind filled with thoughts.
She had no brothers, so her father carried her out.
Her father was no longer young and he was not strong. However, his broad shoulders and chest had protected her for decades. If she was unwilling to marry, he could bear many unpleasant words for her.
He would rather let others say that his requirements for choosing a son-in-law were too harsh and that he had made his daughter an old lady than let others say that she was too old to get married after studying sutras.
Lin Yaoyao’s tears began to fall.
Drop after drop landed on the ground, covering her path out of the house.
Lin Pingsheng’s voice was also a little choked. “Yaoyao, don’t be afraid. Father and Mother will always be your backing. Don’t forget that your father was also the number three in the national examinations.”
Lin Yaoyao’s vision blurred as she nodded.
After leaving the house, Su Chong had already dismounted. He walked to Lin Pingsheng and Mdm Chen and said respectfully, “Father-in-law, Mother-in-law, I’m here to pick Yaoyao up.”
Madam Chen wiped the corners of her eyes and nodded.
Lin Pingsheng glanced at Su Chong and said, “Su Chong, from today onwards, I’ll leave my daughter to you to protect. I hope you can protect her well. I wish you all the best.”
Su Chong nodded solemnly. “I will.”
Only then did Lin Pingsheng carry Lin Yaoyao to the side of the sedan chair. He sighed and said, “Yaoyao, get in the sedan chair.”
Lin Yaoyao got into the bridal sedan chair.
Lin Pingsheng and Mdm Chen looked at each other.
Lin Pingsheng said to Su Chong, “Go. Don’t miss the auspicious time.”
Su Chong nodded and got on the horse.
Su Hua cupped his hands at Lin Pingsheng and Madam Chen before following them.
The sound of gongs and drums sounded. With the sound of ‘raise the sedan chair’, the bridal sedan chair began to walk back.
Madam Chen’s tears fell like rain. She couldn’t help but take two steps forward.
Lin Pingsheng put his arm around her shoulder and said, “Madam, don’t chase after her. Yaoyao is going for happiness.”
Madam Chen cried. She knew, but she was still reluctant.
It was as if a piece of flesh had been dug out of her heart.
“Madam, don’t worry. Where Yaoyao is in the future, we will be there too. I’m a teacher. I can teach anywhere.”
Lin Pingsheng comforted Madam Chen. His daughter was married, so it was impossible to see her every day. However, as long as they were together, they could see each other often.
They only had one daughter, so they naturally had to follow her. Only then could they feel at ease.
The procession of the bridal sedan chairs had gradually disappeared from sight, and the festive voices gradually faded away.
Lin Yaoyao sat in the bridal sedan chair and gradually calmed down.
