Fox Demon: Huaizhu is not a concubine, and hegemony has no wife

Chapter 359: Afterwards, I hope my husband will show me mercy

Su Mu hurried to the bridal chamber and opened the door under the maid's surprised gaze.

The warm and elegantly decorated room is filled with the scent of incense and festive atmosphere.

Warm sunlight came in through a gap in the window and happened to fall on the shoulder of the bride who was sitting on the edge of the bed.

The red veil embroidered with gold thread and hung with long coral tassels, faintly trembling with the girl's breathing.

The girl sat there dignifiedly, her upper body tense, her bright red wedding dress outlining her alluring curves.

Perhaps because she had been sitting there so gracefully for too long, the pair of small feet under her skirt couldn't help but move slightly, tapping the ground from time to time.

As if she heard the sound of the door being pushed open, the girl's feet immediately stopped moving, and her already tense upper body became even more tense.

Suddenly a gust of wind blew from outside the door into the house, lifting a corner of the veil, revealing the girl's fair jaw and her rosy lips stained with rouge.

Su Mu's heartbeat suddenly quickened, but he still glanced around the room. Not finding anything, his worries were slightly relieved and he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Uncle, uncle..."

Mrs. Wang rushed over and quickly pulled Su Mu out.

"It's not time yet. The bride can't run away from here. Why are you so anxious..."

After pulling Su Mu out, Mrs. Wang laughed and joked.

Su Mu looked a little embarrassed, but he couldn't refute. He couldn't say that he was worried about Tushan Honghong running over and doing something.

In fact, he also felt that he was overthinking. How could he be so charming? Everything was just an illusion. How could the peerless fox demon king and the domineering Lord of Tushan care about him?

"Sir, go and entertain the guests."

Mrs. Wang urged again.

Su Mu had no choice but to turn around and entertain the guests who came to the wedding.

"My uncle is so impatient, he can't wait any longer."

"It's me. I can't wait either. Miss Huaizhu is so beautiful."

…………

After Su Mu left, several maids whispered.

The young girl sitting in the bridal chamber remained silent, but her face beneath the red veil was slightly flushed, and she unconsciously clenched her lips. It was obvious that she had heard what the maids had said. Besides feeling shy, she also felt a little happy, and faintly, a little...

look forward to.

………………

There are many marriage rules in wealthy and powerful families, such as entering the bridal chamber and having wedding nights, which do not happen immediately.

The first day was to entertain guests coming from afar, and the wedding was presided over by a steady ceremonial officer.

Today is the first day, and Su Mu visits guests at banquets everywhere and raises a toast to express his gratitude.

In this era, the wedding of aristocratic families is not just a simple wedding, but also a time for aristocratic families to strengthen their relationships with each other.

Although Shenhuoshan Villa is a rising force in recent years, because the old owner Dongfang manages the villa well, its influence is not inferior to that of the major Taoist alliance families, so naturally it also has this demand.

Under Dongfang Guyue's intentional guidance, Su Mu got to know many senior members of the Dao League families.

For example, the head of the Taoyuan Li family, the head of the Black Sword Zhang family, the head of the Ji family who can fly thousands of miles with the divine wind wings, and the head of the Deng family whose ancestors have been with stones and studying petrification.

Su Mu followed Dongfang Guyue, who introduced them to him one by one.

Although Dongfang Gu Yue had some resentment towards Su Mu in his heart, it was just resentment. In his heart, he obviously still planned to let Su Mu inherit Shenhuoshan Villa in the future, and was paving the way for his future.

Su Mu did not dare to neglect it, and always remained humble and respectful to these people from the aristocratic families.

……

After entertaining guests on the first day, he was almost exhausted and looked dazed because he had drunk too much, but he still forced himself to return to the bridal chamber with the help of his maid.

Dongfang Huaizhu, who had been waiting for a whole day, was obviously a little nervous while sitting there. Her two little hands were even nervously grabbing the hem of her skirt.

Su Mu stood in front of Dongfang Huaizhu. Even though he was dizzy and drunk at the moment, he was still excited.

"Uncle, it's time to pick out the veil."

Mrs. Wang whispered, and at the same time a maid brought over a weighing rod.

The scale bar is made of mahogany, with the Chinese character "囍" carved on the bar body, the head of the bar covered with silver engraving, and hanging with five-colored silk ribbons.

Su Mu picked up the weighing rod and remembered the etiquette he had learned before, which was to use the weighing rod to gently lift the corner of the veil and slowly lift it up from the lower left, meaning "the left is more respected."

The weighing rod lifted the veil, and as the veil slowly fell, it was like a flower scroll slowly unfolding in the morning light, revealing the most moving scenery in the world.

Her two dark eyebrows were like rain washing the spring mountains, and a butterfly cut out of gold foil hung on the end of her eyebrows, almost fluttering into the air as her eyelashes trembled slightly.

Her nose was straight and delicate, and the corners of her lips were naturally pink. As he looked at her, the girl had a gentle smile on her face, and then she lowered her head unconsciously, revealing the shyness that was unique to a girl.

For a moment, Su Mu was stunned.

"It's time to drink the wedding wine."

Beside her, Mrs. Wang urged with a smile.

Su Mu was stunned, and also came to the table next to him, picked up the wine pot, and poured wine into the two halves of the "卺".

Then, Su Mu took a "卺" for himself and gave another "卺" to Dongfang Huaizhu.

Dongfang Huaizhu took it shyly, lowering her head slightly.

Seeing this, Mrs. Wang smiled and said some wedding congratulations, wishing the couple a happy marriage and a long and happy life together. Then she clapped her hands and said, "It's time to change the 'bridal couple'."

Su Mu couldn't help but smile. Although he had already drunk a lot of wine today, this glass of wine was what he was most looking forward to at this moment.

So, he picked up the 'wedding wine' and came to sit next to Dongfang Huaizhu, bending his body forward.

Dongfang Huaizhu also picked up the 'wedding wine' and came over, straightening his body slightly.

Su Mu smiled and passed the wedding wine through her arms, dropping his 'wedding wine' on Dongfang Huaizhu's lips, while the 'wedding wine' held by Dongfang Huaizhu also gently fell on his lips.

The girl looked up at him

Su Mu looked at the girl with pride

Dongfang Huaizhu's eyes flashed with shy affection, and he lowered his eyes shyly.

Beside her, Mrs. Wang smiled and said all kinds of auspicious words.

So, Su Mu leaned forward slightly, and the two of them drank each other's 'wedding wine' steadily.

"After drinking the 'wedding wine', you two will stand together through thick and thin, and never leave each other."

Mrs. Wang was laughing beside her.

"I will take good care of Huaizhu for the rest of his life."

Su Mu nodded and spoke softly.

Dongfang Huaizhu was too embarrassed to answer, but just nodded lightly, then her eyes unconsciously looked towards him, and when she saw Su Mu also looking at her, the girl lowered her head slightly, revealing her shy beauty. A light mosquito-wing-like sound came from the girl's mouth to Su Mu's ears.

"From now on, I hope my husband will show me mercy."
