Chapter 755: Good Fortune
"Brother." Yan Funing lay on her eldest brother's Honghou raised his eyes to look at Fu Ciyi, then carried him away easily.
Fu Ciyi: "..."
After Yan Honghou walked for a while, he handed Yan Funing to Yan Xinghe's back.
At the moment of handover, Yan Xinghe also glanced at Fu Ciyi with a rather indifferent look that contained a warning.
Fu Ciyi said again: "..."
On the way, Yan Xinghe said in a voice that only the siblings could hear: "He is cunning and thoughtful. Sister should be on guard against him."
Yan Funing's nose was sour: "Second brother, I understand."
When they were almost at the gate, Yan Xinghe handed Yan Funing over to Yan Bojian's back.
Unlike his two brothers who just glanced and said nothing, Yan Bojian spoke directly: "Master Fu, you must always remember that my sister has three brothers. If you want to bully our sister in the future, think twice."
Fu Ciyi said again: "..."
Instead, Fu Beimo spoke up: "Don't worry, Yan San, if my brother bullies my sister-in-law, I won't allow it."
Yan Bojian nodded and carried Yan Funing into the bridal sedan.
There were many guests and people watching the ceremony, the sound of firecrackers continued, and the scene was very lively.
Yan Bojian said softly, "My sister is marrying into the Fu family, and I am very reluctant to let her go. If you are unhappy about anything in the future, please tell me."
Even though his skills are not as good as Fu's, he will try his best to protect his sister.
"Third brother."
There was a cry in his voice.
Yan Funing nodded, tears suddenly fell, she was speechless and choked with sobs.
Ever since she was kicked out of the Yan family, she had envied Nan Yao for having a brother's love and care, and envied others for having brothers and sisters.
Since she met her family, her third brother was the first person who made her feel that she had an older brother.
In the Fu family, she played the role of a sister-in-law with all her heart. In her brother's house, she was a younger sister and could be cared for with peace of mind.
She always prided herself on being emotionally stable, but now she couldn't control herself: "Third brother, I can't bear to leave you either."
Yan Bojian shed tears and said, "Then come back more often."
Yan Funing agreed.
The sedan chair was lifted.
As the wedding procession started, 188 loads of dowry were carried out of Yan's house one after another.
The journey was filled with the sound of gongs and drums, and it was extremely lively.
A veiled woman was sitting by the window on the second floor of a teahouse along the street.
The woman stared straight at the groom sitting on the horse, and soon she moved towards the sedan chair angrily.
Someone at the next table praised: "It's worthy of the Duke to marry his daughter. Just looking at the dowry, those who don't know would think Duke Yan is going to marry his daughter to some prince."
Someone else said, "Master Fu is the new top scholar. His promotion speed is unmatched. I think it's because Duke Yan has a good vision."
"Duke Yan is not the only one with vision. Didn't Prime Minister Cai also want to recruit Lord Fu as his son-in-law?"
"Yes, now that you mentioned it, I remember something. It's been a long time since Miss Cai seduced a married man and had an affair in Yingtian Lake. Why hasn't she married yet?"
"Yes, she is old, isn't she?"
The veiled woman clenched the teacup angrily.
The maid asked in a low voice: "Miss, they are too talkative, do you need to send someone to teach them a lesson?"
Cai Mushi shook her head and shifted her gaze back to the street.
But Fu Ciyi just kept looking at the sedan chair the whole time, as if he was worried that it would disappear out of thin air.
The wedding procession circled the main streets of the capital before heading towards the Fu family.
Yan Funing sat in the bridal sedan until her buttocks were numb. With the veil covering her head, she had no idea whether it was daylight outside or not. She only felt that a considerable amount of time had passed.
Finally, the bridal sedan shook, and Madam Youxi sang loudly: "The bride has arrived, the bridal sedan has arrived, and blessings are coming to the door!"
Then, the sedan chair was laid flat and the curtain was opened.
The beautiful hand just now reached out and held her hand as usual.
Yan Funing couldn't stand up, so she scratched his palm and said, "I've been sitting for too long, my legs are numb, let me take it easy."
You really can't blame her.
The phoenix coronet and bridal robe were too heavy, the wedding dress made her shoulders feel heavy, and the phoenix coronet made her neck sore. She had been sitting in the sedan for who knows how many hours, and it was difficult for her to stand up, let alone walk. Upon hearing this, Fu Ciyi stepped into the sedan, picked her up horizontally, and walked out of the sedan.
When Aunt Xi saw this, they looked at each other in bewilderment, not knowing what to say to express their auspicious wishes for a moment.
By the time they reacted, the groom had already entered the mansion carrying the bride.
So he hurriedly followed in.
In the hall, Wan Niang sat in the main seat, and the guests watching the ceremony were mainly from the Fu family, Pang Gaozhuo, a young Hanlin from the Hanlin Academy.
All other guests were seated in the main hall and were not allowed to watch the ceremony.
This arrangement was decided by Fu Ciyi early in the morning. He used the excuse that his mother was blind and did not like being in an environment with too many strangers.
It will be implemented by Butler Yu and Nanny Li.
All the guests who came to the wedding today understood this.
Fu Nanyao stood aside and reminded her mother: "Mom, my brother and sister-in-law are here to pay their respects."
At this moment, Wan Niang pricked up her ears and listened carefully to the noisy noises in the hall, trying to distinguish the footsteps of her son and daughter-in-law.
Yan Funing was carried out of the hall by Fu Ciyi. Although she was covered with a veil, she could probably guess that everyone's eyes were on her when she was carried like this.
"My legs and feet are better now. I can walk by myself," she whispered.
"Are you sure?" the man asked.
"Ah."
Fu Ciyi put her down.
The two men, each holding a piece of red silk, walked into the hall.
"Worship heaven and earth!"
"Two thanks to the high hall!"
"Couple greetings!"
Yan Funing was supported by someone and she only knew that she was being turned around and bowed to. She looked under the veil and saw someone's brocade boots moving like hers.
Nanny Xi sang loudly again: "The ceremony is over, send her to the bridal chamber."
The crowd applauded.
On the way, Fu Ciyi held Yan Funing's hand tightly.
The couple walked in front, followed by a lot of people behind them, laughing and talking happily.
Hearing the sound and walking towards the main courtyard, Wan Niang stood up happily.
Nanny Li quickly supported her and said, "Madam, the master has instructed that you should go back to your room and rest since your eyesight is not good."
Wan Niang nodded: "Let's go back to our room first."
The purpose her son mentioned was the same as why he had asked her to wear a human skin mask to meet her mother-in-law.
This is also the reason why not all guests are allowed to attend the ceremony.
Although she had lost her memory, she was not mentally retarded and understood that the older guests would probably recognize her.
On this side, Wan Niang was helped back to her room by Nanny Li.
On the other side, the newlyweds entered the bridal chamber.
At the same time, the wedding banquet began in the main hall.
Nanny Xi smiled and said, "The bride will wait in the bridal chamber for a while. When the next auspicious time comes, the bride and groom will drink the wedding wine together."
Yan Funing nodded slightly to show that she understood.
After moving like this, I felt my neck almost stiffened.
But the thing on his head was quite heavy, so he had to force himself to sit upright.
Fu Ciyi stayed in the bridal chamber for a while, squeezed Yan Funing's hand, and said softly, "I'll go entertain the guests."
After saying this, he took the guests with him to the banquet.
The maids also withdrew.
The new house became quiet.
"Cai Yu, come quickly." Yan Funing called quietly.
"I'm coming."
Caiyu came over with three maids.
