spend time

Jiang Shaohua stood outside the main gate and watched the bridal sedan go away.

Somehow, I felt a little lost and melancholy.

Yin Zhu smiled quietly and said, "Today is the wedding day of Chen Sheren. Isn't the princess happy for Chen Sheren?"

"I am happy, but I feel a little reluctant." Jiang Shaohua smiled and sighed: "Now I can understand a little bit how it feels to marry a daughter. I have raised her by my side for many years, but as soon as she gets married, she becomes the daughter-in-law of someone else's family. I feel very uncomfortable."

Yin Zhu laughed out loud: "The princess is three years younger than Chen Sheren! It's more appropriate to marry a sister, how come it's considered marrying a daughter?"

Jiang Shaohua smiled slightly. In her previous life, she lived to be over 30 years old, and it has been nearly six years since she was reborn. In terms of her mental age, isn't she looking at Chen Jinyu like a younger generation?
Naturally, she couldn't tell Yin Zhu about her feelings. She only confided a few words to Cui Du when she was in front of him.

Cui Du's left arm injury has improved greatly, and he no longer needs to wear a bandage. However, he still cannot move it left and right, and it is a little stiff. His right hand is very flexible, and he holds his fiancée's hand with ease: "Mr. Chen has taken a month's wedding leave. Do you feel a little empty when you can't see Mr. Chen for the next month?"

Jiang Shaohua thought for a moment and said with a smile: "It feels about the same."

Cui Du laughed softly and said, "My left arm injury hasn't healed yet, so I'll take advantage of the New Year to recuperate for another month. I'll be with you every day."

Jiang Shaohua smiled and hummed: "Come to think of it, since you came to Nanyang County, you have been busy on duty. You have to recuperate during this period of time, so you can have a good rest."

"Actually, I'm used to wandering around the fields every day and cultivating grain seeds." Cui Du suddenly sighed: "I'm naturally very happy to be able to stay by your side. However, this life is too leisurely."

This is because I am used to doing things and I can't sit still.

Jiang Shaohua smiled and said, "I feel bored staying in the palace all day. Our wedding will be in April next year. I will go to inspect the counties after the Chinese New Year and return to the palace when we get married."

Cui Du had no intention of stopping him: "Then I will go to the farm too, and return to the palace before the wedding."

This is good. We can be busy with our own things on weekdays and get together when we have free time. We don't have to stick together all day.

Jiang Shaohua nodded in agreement.

Cui Du looked at Jiang Shaohua and asked suddenly, "Shaohua, were those assassins sent by Zheng Sheren?"

Jiang Shaohua was silent for a moment: "There is no evidence, but it should be him. I beat him up before I left Beijing."

As he spoke, his eyes showed a hint of apology: "Now is not the time to completely break off relations with the Zheng family. I will keep this account for now. One day in the future, I will get it back for you with interest."

Cui Du was not polite at all: "It's settled then."

He was almost hers... No, it should be said that he had been hers for a long time. He was wronged by the assassin, and it was hers to settle the score and take revenge.

Jiang Shaohua found Cui Du so confident and amused, but also felt warm at the same time.

Men have been superior to women for thousands of years. Most men who are willing to marry into a woman's family are forced by life, or they are greedy for the woman's power and wealth like her father Lu Xuan.

Cui Du was very calm, neither servile nor ashamed, and was even proud of her fiancé. She was not uncomfortable with the strong woman and the weak man.

Such a broad mind and such openness are what a true man should show.

"Cui Du, you are really good." Jiang Shaohua praised softly: "It is my blessing to meet you."

Cui Du grinned and said, "The princess is the best girl in the world. Meeting you is the blessing of my life."

Jiang Shaohua pursed her lips and smiled, then suddenly leaned closer and kissed him on the lips.

Cui Du's whole body trembled, and he suddenly used his right hand to hold her in his arms, and his lips moved clumsily. The warm breath moved in her nostrils.

With her strength and skills, she could push Cui Du away with a little effort. But for some reason, she suddenly lost all her strength.

Her eyelashes trembled and she closed her eyes.

……

After a long while, Cui Du raised his head with a red face, his eyes sparkling like leaves washed by rain, or like charcoal burned by fire, emitting sparks.

Jiang Shaohua didn't need to look in the mirror to know that his cheeks must be rosy.

She looked away, calmed down, and after a while, she turned around and said, "The Ma family is having a wedding banquet tonight. I'm going to the Ma family to attend the wedding banquet. You should come with me."

Cui Du's voice was a little hoarse: "Okay, I'll go change my clothes."

When Cui Du changed his clothes and came over, Jiang Shaohua couldn't help but laugh.

For a formal wedding banquet, she wore a princess dress, which was dignified and elegant. Cui Du usually liked to wear cloth clothes, but today he changed into an earl's dress, which was not only dignified, but also very suitable for her when standing side by side.

This little bit of trickery is cute in her eyes.

Cui Du turned around and showed off happily: "How is it? Does it look good? Does it match you?"

"It looks good," Jiang Shaohua praised, "It matches me very well when standing next to me."

Cui Du grinned, reached out and held Jiang Shaohua's hand, and walked out openly.

Look, with a legitimate status, one can be so confident and calm.

Jiang Shaohua looked at her fiancé, who was like a peacock spreading its tail, and couldn't help but smile. She appeared in public hand in hand with him in such an indulgent and gentle manner.

All the subordinates saw this and smiled knowingly.

The princess returned to Nanyang County early for the sake of Lord Changning. There is no need to elaborate on this thought and affection. Now even the wedding date has been moved up. In a few months, Lord Changning will "marry" and become a son-in-law. It is also human nature for unmarried couples to be affectionate and close.

"Princess, the carriage is ready." Song Yuan's usually solemn face also showed a smile: "Princess, please get on the carriage with the Lord Changning."

Jiang Shaohua agreed with a smile, and got on the carriage with Cui Du. The other officials also got on their own carriages.

When they arrived at the Ma family mansion, it was almost dusk, and it was time for the wedding ceremony.

County Magistrate Ma, who is over 70 years old, was smiling and energetic today, leading the Ma family to welcome the princess. Jiang Shaohua smiled and said, "County Magistrate Ma, there is no need to be polite, get up quickly. Don't delay the auspicious time for worship."

Magistrate Ma agreed cheerfully, led the princess into the wedding hall, and invited her to take a seat.

Jiang Shaohua said with a smile: "Today is the wedding day of Ma Dianshan, County Magistrate Ma should sit at the head of the table, and I, the princess, absolutely have no right to usurp the throne."

After some compromise, Magistrate Ma finally took the seat at the top.

The groom Ma Yaozong, wearing a bright red wedding gown, held a red silk in his hand, the other end of which was held in the hand of the bride, who was wearing a red veil.

One is to worship heaven and earth, the other is to worship in the high hall, and the husband and wife bow to each other.

Amid the kind congratulations and laughter of the crowd, the wedding ceremony was completed and the bride was escorted to the bridal chamber. (End of this chapter)
