Chapter 273: The Spring Night Has Not Come, but the Cold Words Are Cold
"Get off the sedan~!"
Following the prime minister's rhythmic shouts, the atmosphere outside the Sun residence began to boil like a boiling pot.
Many of Sun Shaozu's colleagues from the army came, all of them were big and strong men, and the deafening noise they made when they were making a fuss almost blew the roof off the house.
Yu Qian and the other two were taking part in the palace examination and would not be back until the evening.
However, Feng Ziying, Liu Xianglian, and Jiang Yuhan had already arrived and were greeting Jia Lian, Xue Pan and others who were in charge of seeing off the bride.
There are also Feng Xin, Xu Shouye, Lu Jianxing, Shen Lian, Lin Delu, Zhou Da...
In short, almost everyone who had a close relationship with Sun Shaozong came to congratulate him.
There were also several other highly respected people , such as Feng Ziying's father Feng Tang, Baoling Hou Shi Nai, and the chief official of Zhongshun Palace, who were waiting inside and did not follow the groom out to welcome the bride.
However, Sun Shaozu, who was dressed in red and green, took a bamboo pole and lifted the curtain of the sedan chair under the urging and pushing of his colleagues. The two maids beside him immediately came forward to help Jia Yingchun out and led her to the main gate of the Sun Mansion.
At the same time, firecrackers exploded, and someone took a handful of loose copper coins and threw them at the onlookers.
This was the first time in Jia Yingchun's life that she was the protagonist and enjoyed the attention of the public. She was so frightened that her hands and feet felt weak and her heart was trembling.
Fortunately, the two maids beside her were experienced and reminded her how to cross the threshold and the fire basin. Otherwise, if she relied on herself, even without covering her veil, she might not be able to walk safely to the backyard.
Only when she sat on the wedding bed strewn with jujubes and laurel seeds and the person serving her was replaced by the familiar maid Xiu Ju, did Jia Yingchun gradually recover.
But she soon became concerned again, lifted up half of her red veil, looked around, and said anxiously, "Xiu Ju, where is Si Qi? She...she's not going to make trouble again, is she?!"
"Auntie... Madam, don't worry."
Xiu Ju changed her words awkwardly, taking out the things she would need for the evening from the package, and comforted her, "Since Sun...since Second Master found the real murderer for Pan Youan, Sister Siqi has considered herself a member of the Sun family. How could she cause trouble on such a happy day?"
"I'll put this piece of white silk under your pillow. Madam, don't forget it tonight."
After putting the pillow back in place, Xiu Ju continued, "Just now, the son-in-law had someone call her over. I think he wants to tell her something."
As she spoke, she placed a pair of embroidered shoes with high soles and low edges on the bedside. Although they looked like a pair of shoes, they actually contained some exquisite erotic pictures for the enlightenment of newlyweds.
Of course, since Sun Shaozu was married for the second time and had a large group of concubines around him, this thing naturally became a decoration.
"Did the uncle go to look for her?"
Jia Yingchun murmured to herself, but she was still a little uneasy in her heart - what exactly did Sun Shaozu want to tell Siqi by calling her over?
at the same time.
In a remote pavilion in the southwest of the Sun Mansion, Siqi stood in front of Sun Shaozu with a calm expression.
Anyway, she is willing now and wants to be a maid as a dowry. She doesn't mind giving up her body. Although it seems a bit against the rules to have a relationship with the male owner before Jia Yingchun, given Jia Yingchun's personality, she is afraid that it will just end in nothing afterwards.
It is also because of this that Siqi has no psychological burden at all when facing Sun Shaozu.
Sun Shaozu drank two glasses of wine slowly. Seeing that the tall and strong maid was still neither humble nor arrogant, he could not help but praise: "You are a courageous person - forget it, I won't say any more nonsense. Let me ask you, do you know why I spent a lot of money to welcome your young lady into my family?"
The expression "spending a large sum of money to welcome someone in" obviously carries some derogatory connotations, yet at the same time reveals a hint of something unusual.
Si Qi was slightly startled, then she replied cautiously, "I heard that the master had asked an expert to calculate, and he said that he must marry a noble lady with a compatible horoscope, in order to suppress the fate of being a 'lonely star'."
She really dared to say anything, especially the four words "unlucky star". Although it was Sun Shaozu who spread it himself, hearing it now still made her feel a little painful.
If it was another woman, he would probably beat her up a few times before continuing to question her.
But in order to ensure that the plan could be carried out successfully, Sun Shaozu could only suppress his annoyance and nodded solemnly, "It is true! I am nearly 40 years old now, and I have arranged for so many women in the house, but none of them can give birth to a child."
As he spoke, he gritted his teeth, and his full beard began to tremble like steel needles: "Your daughter is my last hope. If even she can't give birth to a son..."
Touch~
He slammed his fist on the stone table beside him, shaking the cups and plates to pieces, and his face became more ferocious: "Your young lady had better not let me down with my tens of thousands of taels of silver, otherwise... Humph, once I get angry, I won't recognize her family!"
If it was any other maidservant who came with the dowry, she would have been panicked after being threatened like this as soon as she entered the house.
But Siqi did not disappoint her "broad-mindedness". Although her expression changed slightly, she remained calm.
She bowed respectfully and said in a crisp voice, "I will naturally tell Madam what the master said - but if it was just for these, I'm afraid the master would not force the second master to help me redress my grievances."
After a pause, she continued, "Since I have already made a vow, I will obey the Master's orders without any hesitation."
This was clearly telling Sun Shaozu that if there was anything he didn't need to beat around the bush, just say it.
"good!"
Seeing that the maid was really straightforward and that the foreshadowing had been almost complete, Sun Shaozu restrained his fierce attitude and said seriously, "The immortal who calculated that I must marry a noble lady in order to give birth to a son also gave me some auxiliary prescriptions. Only if I do everything according to what he said can I break my fate of being a 'lonely star'."
As he spoke, he took out a few pages of paper from his sleeve and handed them to Siqi.
“Yes.”
He solemnly warned: "You must watch carefully, and urge your young lady to do as written here. If she dares to ruin my good deeds... humph!"
Siqi had been trained by Lady Jia before, so she knew a few words. So she took the pages of paper and roughly scanned them.
It was found that the regulations on everything were extremely detailed, even what Jia Yingchun should eat, drink and even what sleeping position she should take every day were all strictly regulated. It was obvious that they were carefully calculated and designed.
Siqi became more serious in her heart. Although she had a disagreement with Jia Yingchun recently, they were master and servant after all. She didn't want Jia Yingchun to be confused and lose her husband's favor.
So she looked more carefully.
But after a careful look, Siqi found something wrong. It was because the instructions were too detailed. If she followed them, it was not impossible to do it.
But the time for newlyweds to do "that thing" was completely squeezed out!
Although she had never experienced it herself, she knew that she would never be able to have a child without doing "that thing"!
So he couldn't help but question, "Master, according to the instructions above, we have to start doing it after the wedding ceremony. So when are you going to have your wedding night with your wife?"
"What's there to be anxious about in the bridal chamber?"
Sun Shaozu scolded without further ado, "If you miss the immortal's prescription, even if you have sex in the bridal chamber a hundred times, what good will it do?!"
"But if it keeps on... keeps on..."
Siqi still didn't feel comfortable saying it too bluntly. After a slight hesitation, she carefully reminded him, "The white silk that Madam brought as a dowry shouldn't be left unused for a long time..."
"Don't worry about that."
Sun Shaozu said nonchalantly: "I will check it myself then. If I say there is blood on it, who dares to say there is no blood?!"
As he spoke, he stood up from the stone bench and said without question, "First follow this prescription for a month and see how effective it is. When you go back, you might as well tell your young lady that I spent a lot of money to buy her just to give birth to a son! If she doesn't give birth to a son, even if I sleep with her ten thousand times, it won't be enough to pay back the money!"
