New Return of the Pearl: A Different Qing Er

Chapter 156: During the wedding, sent to the bridal chamber!

After leaving the Cining Palace, Song Qing was helped by matchmaker to sit in the sedan chair, and matchmaker handed an apple to Song Qing.

"Gege, you must hold it firmly, don't drop it."

Song Qing nodded slightly through the veil.

The curtain of the sedan chair was lowered and the wedding procession began its return journey.

"Get up the sedan!"

Ertai was riding on his horse and couldn't stop smiling.

The sedan shook all the way, and just when Song Qing was about to vomit, it finally stopped.

Song Qing was helped out by the matchmaker, and then went to worship the ancestors with Ertai.

After all the trouble, the auspicious time has almost arrived.

Song Qing sat back in the sedan chair and staggered to her and Ertai's residence.

As soon as the sedan chair stabilized, Song Qing responded to the sound outside.

"The auspicious time has arrived. Please, groom, shoot three arrows on the sedan door to decide the outcome."

Ertai dismounted from his horse and took the bow and arrow handed to him by Erkang, and drew the arrow to the full length.

"An arrow shoots into the sky, a good marriage is granted by heaven, bringing happiness to the family!"

"Two arrows shoot into the ground, and the world will be filled with happiness forever."

"Three arrows determine the fate of the world. First shoot the sky, then shoot the earth. The sky will last forever, and the earth will last forever."

After shooting three arrows, Ertai walked to the door of the sedan chair, lifted the curtain, and extended his hand to Song Qing.

Through the little view under the veil, Song Qing saw the pair of hands that she was very familiar with. She gently placed her hands on his palms, and Ertai held them tightly.

The matchmaker came over and handed the red silk to the two of them again. Song Qing and Ertai took it, and the matchmaker helped Song Qing walk forward.

"Holding red silk! A piece of red silk, two people holding an embroidered ball, the matchmaker will make love for three lifetimes, and they will love each other till old age!"

"Step over the fire basin! Borrow fire from the sky and make a fire basin. The newlyweds will step over the fire and their life will be prosperous!"

With the help of the matchmaker, Song Qing quickly stepped over the brazier, for she was afraid that her wedding dress would be burned if she was a second late.

"Saddle! A piece of sandalwood, carved with a jade saddle, a golden dragon and a jade phoenix, and twin lotus flowers in bloom!"

The saddle was very large, and Song Qing, who was wearing clogged-soled shoes, found it difficult to take such big steps. She finally stepped over and almost lost her balance. Fortunately, Ertai came to help her, and Song Qing was able to stabilize herself.

After stepping over the fire basin and riding the saddle, it is finally time for the highlight of the evening: the wedding ceremony!

Song Qing and Ertai walked forward step by step together. When they entered the hall, the matchmaker let go of Song Qing's hand.

"Please ask the bride and groom to bow to heaven and earth!"

"I bow to heaven and earth to thank you for your marriage, kneel down~"

Song Qing and Ertai turned around together and knelt on the cushions that had been prepared in advance.

"Thank God for the auspiciousness, I bow my head~"

"May the world last forever, and I bow my head again~"

"I wish you happiness and good health, kowtow three times~"

"Stand up~"

"Bow to my parents, thank you. Kneel down~"

Song Qing and Ertai turned around and knelt down in front of their parents.

Fulun and Fujin looked at the two children in front of them and smiled from ear to ear. Their silly son finally got married! They finally got Qing'er!

So happy!

"I bow to my parents to thank them for bringing me up."

"Respect your parents and let them live out their days in peace, and kowtow again~"

"I wish my parents good health, kowtow three times~"

"Stand up~"

At last, when the couple bowed to each other, Ertai was so excited that he couldn't help but glance in Song Qing's direction.

"The couple kneels before the flower hall and bows to each other~"

Song Qing turned and faced Ertai. She was wearing a veil and could not see what Ertai looked like at the moment. However, just by doing this, she seemed to be able to feel Ertai's burning gaze.

"The universe is in harmony, the zither and the harp are in harmony, and I bow my head~"

"Mandarin ducks fly side by side, husband and wife are of one mind, bow again~"

"I wish you a happy marriage and a happy son. I kowtow three times~"

"Stand up~"

"The ceremony is over! Send her to the bridal chamber~"

After the ceremony, Song Qing was supported by the matchmaker and left.

Song Qing sat quietly in the bridal chamber. The bed beneath her butt was covered with longans, red dates, peanuts, and lotus seeds, which made her butt hurt from sitting so hard.

And Ertai was sitting next to her.

"Please, groom, pick up the wedding scale and lift the wedding veil, and live happily ever after." The matchmaker at the side started to cue the process again.

Ertai picked up the wedding scale tied with red silk handed to him by the maid, turned around and gently lifted Song Qing's veil.

A bright light suddenly appeared, stimulating Song Qing who couldn't help but squint her eyes. Then, she saw Ertai with a silly smile on his face. Unconsciously, Song Qing also smiled.

Today, Ertai was wearing a bright red wedding dress with a big red silk flower tied on his chest. To be honest, this look was really strange. However, perhaps it was because beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, so when Song Qing looked at Ertai, she thought he was very handsome.

The moment Ertai lifted the veil, he could no longer suppress his emotions. He had waited for a long time and finally waited for this day. He looked at the beautiful Song Qing in front of him and no longer wanted to restrain the surging love in his heart, especially when he found that his figure was reflected in Song Qing's clear eyes. That feeling of happiness was a memory that he would never forget for many years to come.

"Please ask the bride and groom to drink the wedding wine." The matchmaker handed over two more glasses of wine. Song Qing and Ertai each took a glass, holding each other's arms, and drank it.

I don’t know if it’s because I’m tired, but after drinking, Song Qing felt dizzy, as if she was drunk.

The matchmaker completed her mission and quickly left with her maids.

Ertai looked at Song Qing's blushing face and suddenly remembered the day when she was drunk.

That was the most intimate time between the two of them, and he would think of that passionate kiss in countless nights afterwards.

Ertai slowly approached Song Qing, and Song Qing stared blankly at Ertai who was getting closer and closer.
