Chapter 171 I finally married you
The golden light almost blinded everyone's eyes, and the originally noisy yard suddenly became silent.
"My mother saved this for me. My grandfather's family was very wealthy, and she was the only one left. All the silver in the family was given to her, and she converted it all into gold and saved it for me. Now it's yours."
Tang Ning was so touched that her eyes were filled with tears. If she had been told earlier that there was so much gold, she would have gotten married earlier.
"Your mother knew that silver was worthless and gold was more valuable, so she exchanged it for gold."
After all, in the future, the price of gold will be far behind, but silver is not very expensive and can be found everywhere.
"You like it? It's all yours now."
Gu Mufeng was grateful to his parents from the bottom of his heart. He used to think these things were tacky and didn't care much about them, but now he realized how naive he was.
If I hadn't sent someone back to get them, I'm afraid my second brother wouldn't have let these things go to Haishi so easily.
Tang Ning was worried about the silver before, so he sent someone back to get it, but he didn't expect that the person who went out had not returned for a long time.
He had a bad feeling and didn't tell Tang Ning because he was afraid she would be disappointed.
I don’t know why my second brother suddenly sent more people to deliver it this time.
It seemed that the letter from his second sister-in-law had worked, and Gu Mufeng planned to give Song Shi a big gift to express his gratitude.
On the wedding day, Gu Mufeng didn't sleep all night. He checked and checked everything he needed.
Only by making sure that everything is safe can you be at peace.
Tang Ning slept all night until dawn, but just as dawn broke, Song Nuannuan and her men dug her out of bed.
"No way, it's so hot, are you sure you want to wear this?"
Tangning held a handheld electric fan and watched them put on multiple layers of clothing. The layers looked nice when stacked together, but she was hot.
The strange thing is that I don’t feel stuffy when I put on the clothes, but instead feel cool.
"Don't worry, the clothes are made of special materials, so you won't feel stuffy."
Fine, Tangning gave up resisting and obediently allowed her to do what she wanted.
"What is the bride holding in her hand that makes the wind come out?"
Some of the women who came to watch the ceremony looked at the item in Tangning's hand with curiosity.
Tang Ning's house was filled with ice cubes for cooling.
Although the weather was not that hot at this time, Tang Ning was born with a hot temper and was more afraid of heat than others.
"This room is too cold."
Seeing this, Song Nuannuan quickly had the ice basins removed, leaving only one for Tang Ning.
"I feel hot!"
"It's not good to let everyone else get cold. Don't worry, I put ice in the sedan chair, and all the makeup I used is waterproof, so it won't come off."
Tangning looked at Song Nuannuan firmly:
"My dear, what would I do without you? With my crippled hands, I can only apply makeup cream and lipstick. How can I create such a beautiful look?"
Tang Ning's exquisite makeup is refreshing. It doesn't feel exaggerated, but it looks very beautiful.
A dressing mirror was ready on the side, and Tang Ning took the veil that had been prepared long ago.
Huh? Tangning suddenly realized that changes in light intensity would affect the color and shape of the phoenix on her veil.
The embroiderers in this palace are truly extraordinary. In modern times, they would be considered an intangible cultural heritage.
She looked at the beautiful and charming woman in the dressing mirror and could hardly believe that it was herself.
Her black hair was tied into an elegant bun, and her jeweled hairpins swayed in the candlelight, adding a touch of charm to her red wedding dress.
She wore a gold filigree peony hairpin inlaid with rubies and a gold hairpin, and had a peony flower pasted on her forehead, which made her extraordinarily beautiful.
"Wow!"
Tangning couldn't help but spin in front of the mirror, her skirt dancing with her movements.
"It's really beautiful. I'd rather weld this shape on my face."
Tangning's joke made Song Nuannuan burst out laughing. But it was Tangning. If it were any other girl, the thought of getting married would have made her blush.
"Isn't this bronze mirror, Princess, the one that was auctioned off in the Treasure Pavilion earlier?"
The wife of one of the officials asked in surprise.
"It's true. Madam Qiao held a banquet at her home a few days ago and specially showed us this treasure. However, hers was only the size of a bronze mirror, while the princess's is really big."
"I heard that Mrs. Qiao bought it for 20,000 taels of silver."
"What, so expensive? What about this, Princess?"
Everyone's eyes changed. Who could be a good family and leave things worth hundreds of thousands of taels of silver lying around? What if they were smashed?
"The groom has already left!"
"Don't make any noise. Even though Gu Mufeng still has to go around the city, you have to look like a bride."
Song Nuannuan quickly covered Tang Ning with a veil and stuffed a large apple into her hand.
I guess the author watched My Fair Princess, otherwise why do people here stuff big apples into their hands at weddings?
Tang Ning, who hadn't eaten breakfast, felt a little greedy.
"If you dare to imitate Little Swallow and eat the apple, I will peel you."
Song Nuannuan threatened Tangning fiercely in her ear and handed her a small box.
"Eat this cushion first. I asked Gu Mufeng to prepare some cakes for the bridal sedan. Don't eat too much, or you'll look bad."
"understood."
Tang Ning muttered to herself, thinking it would be better to just listen to her. It would be much better to keep it simple. Why did she have to make it so complicated? She couldn't even eat a single bite.
At dawn, firecrackers were exploding in the streets and alleys, and the air was filled with smoke.
The wedding procession came in a mighty procession, with a tall horse at the head. Gu Mufeng, who was riding on the horse, was wearing a new red silk dress and looked very majestic. The whip in his hand was tied with a red tassel, and he swung it in the air, making crisp sounds.
Next came a large sedan chair carried by eight people. The sedan was lacquered in bright red and carved with exquisite auspicious patterns of dragons and phoenixes. Bright red satin curtains were hung around the sedan, swaying gently in the wind, and mandarin ducks embroidered with gold thread were playing around in it, as if they were alive.
Next to the sedan chair, the matchmaker was wearing a bright red dress and was smiling from ear to ear.
Gu Mufeng wore a red black gauze hat and a jade belt around his waist. The jade pendants jingled as they collided, making his face look like a jade crown and his posture look upright.
At this moment, he had a smile on his lips, his eyes were full of anticipation and joy, and he was holding a jade ruyi in his hand, full of high spirits.
The wedding procession had already been waiting at the door of the bride's house.
When the auspicious time arrived, Gu Mufeng stepped forward and shouted loudly at the girl's door, "Tangning, I'm here to marry you!"
Inside the door, a group of people were laughing and refused to open the door, deliberately teasing. Mu Zixin took the lead.
"Your Majesty, don't blame me. It was Sister Nuannuan who asked me to ask. Who will be the housekeeper from now on?"
"Tangning!"
Gu Mufeng answered without hesitation. It was not such a simple question.
"What if Tangning and..."
"Tangning!"
Mu Zixin wiped the sweat from his forehead. What kind of weird idea was Song Nuannuan coming up with? How dare he ask such a question?
Tang Ning drank alcohol and his second brother fell into the water. Isn't it like asking who will lose his head?
