Chapter 3500 - 3500 Mandarin Ducks
3500 Mandarin Ducks
After a busy day, Feng Jiu was sitting by the bedside of her bridal chamber at this time. She looked through the beaded curtain that covered her face at the bridal chamber that brimmed with joy and the smile of her face couldn’t help but spread wider.
It was getting dark outside, and Xuanyuan Mo Ze still hadn’t come back from drinking with the guests. The bridal chamber was quiet and no one had come to disturb her.
Until, there was a light knock on the door and Leng Shuang’s voice drifted in from outside.
“Master, are you hungry? Would you like to eat something first?” Leng Shuang pushed the door open and walked inside asking. However, Feng Ye and Hao’er came rushing in after her.
“Little Feng Feng!”
“Mother!”
“Don’t push! Don’t run so quickly!” Qin Xin called out as she followed them in.
“Mother, Mother!” Hao’er came to the bedside and looked at the new bed with a pair of curious eyes and asked: “Grandmother and the others said that Hao’er should help Mother press the bed so that I will have a little brother next year. Mother, what does pressing the bed mean?”
Feng Jiu was startled for a moment when she heard this, then she chuckled lightly and stretched out her arms to hug him and said: “It just means to play on the new bed.”
“Play? But Hao’er is alone, how can he play by himself?” He was at a loss, after all, he wasn’t usually a mischievous child.
“Just get on the bed and roll around a few times.” Feng Ye said, then he helped him take his boots off: “Hurry up, go on!”
So, Hao’er was pushed onto the bed with a dazed expression. He rolled around on the bed a few times looking perplexed and everyone in the room burst into laughter watching him.
“Hell’s Lord is here!”
Outside, someone yelled. Hao’er, who was still on the bed, got out of bed hurriedly and put on his boots, then he stood beside Feng Ye with a serious expression which made Feng Jiu smile once again.
“Let’s all go out now!” Qin Xin said with a smile, then ushered everyone out of the room. No one would dare to tease the newlyweds in their bridal chamber on the night of their Master and Hell’s Lord wedding.
“Master, I will go to the kitchen and bring some food over.” Leng Shuang said, and also retreated.
At this time, Xuanyuan Mo Ze, who was dressed in a luxurious black robe, walked in from outside and strode over to Feng Jiu’s side. When he saw that she was sitting by the bedside waiting for him quietly, a smile lit up on his handsome face and he couldn’t help but ask softly: “Are you tired?”
He stepped forward and reached out to help her take the phoenix crown off her head and said: “Why haven’t you taken the phoenix crown off yet? It’s so heavy, it must have been so tiring to wear it the whole time.”
“Since I didn’t wear a veil, I had to wait for you to take the phoenix crown off for me.” Feng Jiu smiled lightly and felt a little more relaxed after the phoenix crown had been removed: “Have all the guests been taken care of?”
“Leng Hua and Du Fan are taking care of the guests, your Father is there as well, and so is Song Ming, Luo Fei and the others. That’s why I came back after toasting a glass of wine.” Xuanyuan Mo Ze said and sat down by the bed. He looked at her and asked: “Do you want to change out of your clothes first?”
“It’s fine, I’ll change after I bathe.” Feng Jiu replied.
“Master, Hell’s Lord. Please drink the nuptial wine[1].” Bai Qingcheng stepped forward carrying a tray with two wine glasses on it.
Xuanyuan Mo Ze and Feng Jiu looked at each other, then they picked up the wine glasses and leaned forward crossing their hands around each other to drink the wine. At this moment, Bai Qingcheng watched the both of them drinking the nuptial wine and recited softly: “Mandarin Ducks who cross their necks have a lifelong relationship, may the newly weds stay together till the end of their lives.”
After they put the wine glasses back onto the tray, Bai Qingcheng bent her knees slightly and bowed, then she said with a smile: “Master, Hell’s Lord, wishing you a happy marriage and may you give birth to a precious son soon.”
Having said that, Bai Qingcheng pursed her lips and smiled, then she bowed and left the room.
