The beautiful palace maid Yueyuan then stepped forward, holding a brocade box, "A pair of jade Ruyis, our princess wishes the new couple everything goes as they wish."
"Sister, this is Sister Ling, the Sister of Penitentiary appointed to me by the Empress Dowager. These two are my palace maids, Hua and Yueyuan," Long Yingtong carefully explained to Yang Mengchen.
She had told the Empress Dowager that she didn't need sisters and palace maids to serve her. After all, Sister didn't welcome outsiders to live in your house, but the Empress Dowager insisted, and the third brother didn't oppose, so she could only bring the sisters and palace maids.
Sister Ling and the other two bowed respectfully, "This old servant pays respect to Ms. Yang." Prince Chen had already warned them on the way here that they must not be rude to the Yang family, especially to Ms. Yang, otherwise severe punishment would be meted out.
"Please rise," said Yang Mengchen, raising her hand slightly, then glancing at Yang Chengrong, who was about to kneel with Xiao Wanxue to express their thanks. Long Yingtong timely stopped them, "You are my elder brother and sister-in-law, there's no reason in the world for an elder brother and sister-in-law to bow to me, their younger sister.
What's more, the third brother has said long ago that in the Yang family, such formalities are unnecessary. Right, third brother?"
Long Xuanmo responded with a faint sound.
"The commoner thanks the Sixth Princess," Yang Chengrong and Xiao Wanxue bowed, with knees bent in gratitude, as Bing Mo stepped forward to take the brocade box.
Upon Prince Chen's cue, Mo Yun presented a brocade box and opened it—it was filled with dazzling jewelry, leaving onlookers mesmerized.
Long Jingxi and her husband, along with Long YiXuan, had their servants present the congratulatory gifts one after another.
After the newlyweds received the congratulatory gifts, they headed for the bridal chamber amidst the blessings of everyone present.
Mr. and Mrs. Yang Chaowen led Long Xuanmo and others to the inner courtyard garden to take their seats, while other members and servants of the Yang family entertained the villagers in the outer courtyard.
Suddenly, Luo Jingyao dashed over to Yang Mengchen, "Ninth Sister, let's go see the bride." He was very eager to see the excitement in the bridal chamber, but his father had warned him not to cause trouble, so he encouraged his ninth sister.
"Sister, I want to go too," Long Yingtong said, clinging to Yang Mengchen's arm, looking up at her with hopeful eyes.
Yang Mengchen had only seen ancient weddings on television, and since being reborn in this era, she had not witnessed one with her own eyes. Naturally, she was full of curiosity. Upon hearing what Luo Jingyao said, she felt tempted. She looked around to see if anyone had noticed them, then nodded her head, leading Long Yingtong and Luo Jingyao towards the bridal chamber.
The ceremony in the bridal chamber had already concluded, and all the others had left, leaving only the newlyweds. Luo Jingyao and Long Yingtong were quite disappointed to have missed the excitement.
Just as Yang Mengchen was about to lead them out of the room, Yang Chengrong's voice suddenly echoed inside. Curious to hear what her composed and reserved elder brother would say to his wife, she made a shushing gesture and then pressed her ear against the door.
Long Yingtong and Luo Jingyao mimicked her, one out of curiosity, the other out of excitement.
Ever since she came to serve the young lady, Ms. Yang had been especially calm and graceful, like an old person who had experienced the vicissitudes of life. Now, her mischievous demeanor was more befitting of a young girl. Sister Jin watched her with a smile, not stopping her, and she even held back Sister Ling, who was about to speak.
Sister Jin was a court-raised sister with a rank and also deeply trusted and valued by the Empress Dowager. Naturally, Sister Ling did not want to go against Sister Jin's wishes.
In the bridal chamber.
Yang Chengrong, looking at his wife as beautiful as a celestial being, felt his heart pounding like a little deer, and with a blushing face, he softly called out, "Xuexue."
"Mmm," Before her husband's passionate yet tender gaze, Xiao Wanxue's cheeks reddened like rouge, and with a shy lowering of her head, she responded in a voice as soft as a mosquito's hum.
"You are truly beautiful!"
"..."
"Xuexue."
"Mmm."
"You have finally become my wife, hehe."
"..."
