Little Yu is Bullied Everyday (1)
It was said that the one who caught the bridal bouquet would get married within a year.
The guests did not expect that the bouquet was actually caught by a young man. No, we probably shouldn’t call him a young man, it was probably better to call him a boy.
He looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, and his face was obviously still immature. He probably wouldn’t reach the legal age for marriage in a year, right?
Well, it did not matter. Let’s be scientific, this was just a lucky omen and shouldn’t be taken seriously.
Although he looked strong and brave when he went to grab the bouquet just now, and looked very manly, but… let’s just treat it as a misunderstanding for now. After all, who would say that he was really getting married? So they didn’t really take it to heart.
Well, everyone else didn’t take it to heart, but Jiang Xing’s heart went cold.
He felt that Yu Qingshi was scheming something and deliberately went against him. Just as soon as he said that he did not agree with this relationship, he went and grabbed the bridal bouquet.
This was too much!
Usually he looked gentle, obedient and well-behaved; who would’ve expected that he was actually like this? So infuriating!
Jiang Xing was furious. He hesitated for a moment and whispered to Tao Tao, “Would you like to… throw it once again?”
Tao Tao “…”
“That’s probably not good, isn’t it?”
These were all important things. Jiang Xiumei was still telling her last night about how all these rules and customs had been simplified a lot so it wouldn’t torture people too much. But they were still people who would follow the rules and do what needed to be done. She had to remember things clearly and follow the proper procedures, otherwise the marriage would be unhappy…
Jiang Xiumei had already said so, and Tao Tao did not refute.
Old people were a bit superstitious and valued this sense of ritual. If one part of it was ruined, Jiang Xiumei might shake from the fear and be unable to sleep.
Jiang Xing also knew his mother, and after thinking about it, he felt that it would be better not to create new problems, so he secretly gritted his teeth and endured it.
Brat, just you wait.
Jiang Xing was celebrating on one hand, and secretly worried on the other hand. He ended up spending the whole day being happy and worried at the same time.
Until the dinner party came, Jiang Xing was still unable to find time to rest.
Damn, getting married was so exhausting!
Tao Tao was even more tired than him.
She stood in high heels for a whole day; her back ached, her waist ached, her head hurt and her feet were sore. Her body was filled with pain everywhere.
After finally finding some space to take a break, the pair intentionally dawdled while changing their clothes for the dinner party and refused to come out.
The two sat facing each other. Tao Tao sat at the edge of the bed, her small face wrinkled like an orange peel.
Tao Tao said, “I have to toast the guests after this, I really don’t have the strength.”
“Don’t worry, let me do it. If they dare to make you drink, you can call me over.”
Tao Tao glared at him and whispered, “What should I worry about?”
This idiot. On weddings, people would be forcing the groom to drink. Who would force the bride to drink?
Instead of worrying about himself, he wanted to stop others from urging her to drink. So silly.
Tao Tao told him that if he was being forced to drink, he should avoid it if he could. And if he couldn’t avoid it, he had to find a way to push it away. If he really couldn’t, then he should get his brother-in-law to come and help him drink. In short, he had to find some way to avoid getting drunk.
Jiang Xing nodded again and again, saying that he understood and that he would definitely pay attention. It was just a pity that the will of the guests didn’t change just because of their countermeasures. As soon as they finished changing and went out, a group of people immediately gathered around them and took Jiang Xing away, almost literally lifting him up.
Jiang Xing was exhausted.
While Jiang Xing was being tortured to death here, Yu Qingshi over there gave Jiang Xiaoman the bridal bouquet he had just caught.
The bouquet was very delicate, made from champagne rose. When you put it on the tip of your nose, you could smell the rich fragrance. The delicate flowers were placed in Jiang Xiaoman’s hands, but they did not take away her brilliance at all.
She had put on light makeup today, and looked more delicate and eye-catching than usual. The makeup was not very dazzling so as not to steal the limelight from the bride and looked a little pale, but it was more in line with her temperament. Her long, slightly wavy black hair lazily spread behind her, secured with a crystal hairpin.
Jiang Xiaoman didn’t realize that Yu Qingshi had already been staring at her several times. He was feeling a little uncomfortable and his ears were slightly red, while her eyes were focused on the flowers in her hands. She said wow in amazement, then raised her eyes and asked Yu Qingshi, “Are you giving it to me?”
“Yeah.” Yu Qingshi firmly placed it in her hand.
Jiang Xiaoman was very satisfied. She glanced at it several times before she remembered the meaning of the bouquet. She couldn’t help but blink while asking, “Do you really want to get married this much?”
This question made Yu Qingshi feel annoyed and he gritted his teeth, “Who wants to get married this much?”
He said that he didn’t really want to get married, but he was so fierce when he grabbed the bouquet just now that even Jiang Xiaoman was a bit startled.
“I heard that the one who grabbed the bride’s bouquet will get married within a year.” Jiang Xiaoman paused for a while and asked, “Do you want to get married to me1 that much?”
“…” Yu Qingshi suddenly didn’t know how to answer.
How should he answer without embarrassing and slapping his own face?
No, the key was that he didn’t want to get married to Jiang Xiaoman; he wanted to marry Jiang Xiaoman.
Yu Qingshi thought about it calmly and thought that his father would not agree to let him get married into her family. After all, he was the only son in his family. If he went to Jiang Xiaoman’s family, no one else would be left to take care of his family.
…it didn’t seem fine, but there was still a solution.
This was now a civilized society, so who would ask for a drafted son-in-law? If we used official modern terms, it would just be called a marriage.
Since it would be a marriage, the probability was at least 50% or more. This way, both his father and Xiaoman’s uncle would agree, and they would achieve a win-win situation.
The rest was a matter of age.
Footnote:
1 The connotation here is that Yu Qingshi would be marrying into Xiaoman’s family instead of the other way around (basically he’s the bride here instead of the groom), that’s why he is conflicted.
