Chapter 196 The Cannon Fodder Wife in the Ancient Time Traveling Novel 3
So there was no time for Xia Xiaoxiao to adapt, she was so busy. Fortunately, she had a good learning ability, and after going through so many worlds, she was still stable. Xia Xiaoxiao combined the original owner's and her own learning, so no matter how busy she was, there was no trouble.
Her mother, Wang, also nodded secretly. Even an experienced housewife would only be like this. Only then did she feel a little relieved about her marriage.
A month passed in this way, and it was finally time for the original owner to get married tomorrow. Although this period was very tiring, it was her first time to officially experience all the matters of getting married in ancient times, so she tried her best to complete every step perfectly.
It has nothing to do with who she marries, she just wants to enjoy the process. But the original owner's mother, Wang, doesn't think so. She thinks this is her daughter's expectation for her marriage!
She was happy that her daughter had grown up, but she also had some concerns. She had seen a lot of marriages between wealthy families. Even the marriages of the Censor family were not simple, let alone the marriages of the Marquis family.
She was afraid that the more her daughter expected from marriage, the greater her disappointment would be, and she would not be able to bear the blow and do something extreme. So the night before the wedding, she stayed in her daughter's room and explained many things to her daughter in detail.
"Xiaoxiao, you will have to rely on yourself to live your life from now on. What mother wants to tell you is that you must put yourself first in everything. If your husband treats you well, you can also treat your husband and wife well. If your husband treats you badly, don't be too sad, just keep your own status and position. After all, it is an imperial decree of marriage, and your position is stable. As for emotional matters, you have to find a balance. As a mother, you should advise you to keep your original heart. Even if you have deeper feelings in the future, you have to leave some room for yourself." Wang really said these words to Xia Xiaoxiao from the bottom of her heart.
"Mom, I understand. Your daughter will not be with you and dad in the future, so you must take good care of yourself." Xia Xiaoxiao was not an ungrateful person, so of course she understood what her mother meant!
When Wang left, she left her a box and told her to read it in private. She also said that she might feel uncomfortable after experiencing these things tomorrow night, but she needed to endure it. If she didn't understand, she should listen to her husband more! After saying this, Wang blushed and left.
Xia Xiaoxiao was instantly excited when she heard this. This was probably the only premarital sex education in ancient times. She opened the box her mother left for her by candlelight.
She took out the thin book and started reading. The pictures were really crudely drawn. Except for the key parts where the movements were particularly obvious and exaggerated, the rest were just a few strokes! After flipping through it, she didn't even blush, and was even a little disappointed. Huh, that's it? Even if she were to draw, her level would be higher than this one.
But she must never say these thoughts out loud, otherwise Wang would go crazy.
On the wedding day, Xia Xiaoxiao was woken up from her bed by the maid in the middle of the night. She took a fragrant flower petal bath while half asleep, and only woke up completely after she finished bathing and put on her clothes.
Afterwards, Madam Quanfu, who was invited by Wang, cleaned her face first, and then combed her hair while reciting blessings. Before she finished combing her hair, her personal maid Qiuju brought a bowl of crystal dumplings.
"Miss, eat something to fill your stomach first. You won't be able to eat after you put on makeup. After you eat this meal today, you won't have the next meal until tonight!" The maid advised Xia Xiaoxiao to eat more.
Xia Xiaoxiao also obediently finished the bowl of crystal dumplings. Then she began to put on her wedding dress, jewelry, and makeup! Xia Xiaoxiao looked at her delicate and pretty face in the bronze mirror, which was only 70% delicate and pretty. Under the hands of Madam Quanfu, she became 90% beautiful. This was done with very limited cosmetics. The craftsmanship was really amazing.
Xia Xiaoxiao couldn't even imagine it. If she had all the cosmetics, she would definitely become a stunning beauty. Finally, Mrs. Quanfu drew a flower between her eyebrows. Xia Xiaoxiao didn't know what flower it was, but it looked pretty. She even wanted to whistle when she saw it.
After that, they chatted and waited for the groom to pick them up. When the sound of firecrackers rang out outside, everyone was saying that the groom had arrived. Wang then picked up the veil and covered Xia Xiaoxiao's head. She choked up and said to her: "Good child, you must be well!"
"Okay, Mom, I promise everything will be fine. Please don't worry." Then Xia Xiaoxiao was carried out by her eldest brother.
After bidding farewell to her parents and ancestors, she was put into the sedan chair, then lifted up and carried through the streets and alleys, then lowered and kicked down, and then she was led by the maid, the matchmaker, over the fire basin, to worship in the hall.
"Worship heaven and earth."
"Two thanks to the high hall."
"Husband and wife bow to each other."
"The ceremony is completed and sent to the bridal chamber!"
Xia Xiaoxiao was escorted to the bridal chamber! Afterwards, the matchmaker took off the veil, and Xia Xiaoxiao saw what the male lead looked like for the first time. She also saw a flash of amazement in the male lead's eyes.
Well, this man is indeed good-looking. No wonder he can be the male lead and no wonder he can be favored by the time-traveling girl at first sight. Xia Xiaoxiao took a look and lowered her head in a shy manner.
After drinking the wedding wine, he took a bite of a raw dumpling and timidly said a new word. He was also thrown with peanuts, melon seeds, longan and other nuts. After that, Leng Mufeng was taken out to toast!
At this point in the wedding ceremony, basically all the procedures have been completed. Xia Xiaoxiao breathed a sigh of relief. She was very tired today. This bridal outfit alone weighed several kilograms!
As soon as the groom left, she couldn't wait to call the maid to help unload the goods. She simply couldn't bear it for a moment.
"Qiuyu, go to the kitchen and get me a bowl of hangover soup. And bring me some easily digestible food."
"Qiuju, go get some water. I want to wash first!"
She brought four personal maids with her, Qiuju and Qiuyu, who had served her since they were young. One was good at accounting and managed her storehouse and money, and the other was good at combing hair and had a good eye for matching clothes, helping her with washing, dressing and other personal matters.
Later, two more maids were assigned, Qiuyue and Qiuxiang. Qiuyue knew some medicine and medicinal food, while Qiuxiang knew some martial arts and management! Xia Xiaoxiao had already generously bought loyalty talismans for the four maids, so she could use them without worry.
Not long after, Xia Xiaoxiao was soaking in the bathtub, thinking about how to spend the night. The male and female protagonists had a grudge against the original owner, and they definitely didn't want the male protagonist to consummate the marriage with her. In this case, the male protagonist should be left to the female protagonist!
Xia Xiaoxiao thought about it and used her consciousness to search in the space to see if there was anything she could use. She saw an illusion charm. When did she buy it? What was its function? She had never used it before. Did it cause hallucinations?
"Xiao Jiu, what is the function of this illusion charm? I have forgotten a little. Is it to make people hallucinate a certain plot and think it really happened? Can I make the male protagonist hallucinate and think that he will have his wedding night tonight?"
"Xiaoxiao, it's okay, but it's only a one-time thing."
No matter what, let's try this talisman paper tonight. If it works, I'll buy more next time. Xia Xiaoxiao stopped bathing immediately and put on her clothes. She was afraid that things would be exposed, so she added a little aphrodisiac to the hangover soup to help.
Not long after Xia Xiaoxiao made the decision, Leng Mufeng, with a red face and drunk, came in, supported by his two good friends. They put him outside the screen in the small hall outside the room and did not dare to enter the inner room.
He just said loudly outside: "Sister-in-law, we leave Afeng to you."
"Sister-in-law, Afeng was in a good mood today, so he drank a few more glasses. Thank you for taking care of him."
"It's not hard. You've worked hard to bring the Marquis in tonight. I'll let the Marquis treat you to a drink later." Xia Xiaoxiao didn't go out either, and just talked across the screen.
"Okay, okay. Sister-in-law, we'll take our leave now."
The two of them said this in a teasing tone and went out.
Xia Xiaoxiao waited until they were far away before coming out of the inner room. Looking at this drunk who was still yelling "I'm not drunk yet", "I can still drink", "Where are they? Why are they all gone?", Xia Xiaoxiao had no choice but to order the maid to let the people who served the Marquis help the Marquis to wash up first! She didn't know how to serve this drunk.
Soon, two servants came in with the marquis who had just finished washing up! Although he had washed up, he was still drunk. I don't know how much wine he had been forced to drink. It seems that the male protagonist has no true friends, otherwise how could he be so drunk on such a day? After all the servants left, Xia Xiaoxiao appeared with the sobering soup.
"My Lord, are you back too? I just asked the kitchen to prepare some sobering soup. You should feel better after drinking it. Please enjoy it, My Lord!" Xia Xiaoxiao said in a soft voice, and handed the sobering soup to Leng Mufeng's mouth. It seemed gentle, but she actually roughly poured the soup down his throat.
She helped him onto the bed, slapped the illusion charm on him, and left him alone. She watched as the man, who had just been well behaved, suddenly began to groan and twist.
Xia Xiaoxiao also knew that the drug was taking effect, and she thought he was too noisy and disturbed her sleep, so she carried him to the pedal again.
Xia Xiaoxiao, lying on the bed, could finally sleep peacefully. But she didn't sleep for long. She was suddenly awakened by the sound of someone falling to the ground. She immediately felt something was wrong. Was someone peeping at her?
Xia Xiaoxiao immediately released her mental power, and after checking what was happening outside, she suddenly relaxed. It turned out that it was not a voyeur, but an injured person who fell unconscious not far from the wedding room.
Xia Xiaoxiao didn't alert anyone and went to check secretly. Where did this person come from? What was he doing near the wedding room? Didn't he know that a wedding had just taken place here? This shouldn't be the case, as there were red silk wedding characters hanging everywhere!
Xia Xiaoxiao took a quick look and found that the man's wound was not big. He must have been poisoned. When she saw the man's face, Xia Xiaoxiao took a breath.
Oh my god, who is this guy? He is so handsome. Xia Xiaoxiao is not obsessed with looks, she has seen enough handsome guys, but she still can't deny that this guy is really good-looking.
How to describe it? It's a bit like the feeling of the little Nanchen King played by Ren Jialun at the peak of his appearance, but not too much. Even if he is unconscious, it can't cover up his noble appearance.
