“I am Chun He.” Two pretty maidservants answered, raising their heads. They were both good looking, with red lips and white teeth, delicate eyebrows and eyes, both around sixteen or seventeen years old, at their prime. The remaining four maidservants all lowered their heads, about thirteen years old, with ordinary looks. Their names were Xiao Wei, Xiao Qin, Xiao Yue, and Xiao Rui. As for the two old mamas, one was Wan mama who had been with Lady Liu for many years, and the other was a newly recruited mama named An mama.
“Miss, Madam asked us to follow you, to watch over you in the future and make sure you don’t suffer any grievance in the Houfu.” Wan mama said.
Lu Lingyun smiled and nodded at them, “Okay, since you’re following me, you’re my people now. As long as you do your job well, I won’t treat you badly.”
“Yes, Miss.”
Lu Lingyun asked Zhi Yan to give them red envelopes, and sent them away. As they left, Wan mama couldn’t hide the pride in her eyes. She acted as if she had Lu Lingyun completely under her control.
“Miss, those people must be Madam’s spies sent to watch you.” Zhi Yan said after they left.
Lu Lingyun smiled faintly, her red lips only uttered two words, “Not afraid.”
She knew, of course she knew. Except for Chun Xing and Chun He, everyone else was exactly the same as the people who had been given to her in her previous life. She knew them all like the back of her hand, and she knew all their secrets and weaknesses.
It must be said that reincarnation is great, it’s like having a heavenly eye, making everyone in front of her transparent. Chun Xing and Chun He were not given to her in her previous life, perhaps because she was going to marry the young master this life, and the concubine would need to find a good-looking one.
Seeing that Lu Lingyun remained calm and composed, Zhi Yan only felt that her miss had changed a lot recently. Was her miss too passive? Would this really work? Wouldn’t she be bullied? No, she had to keep an eye out, pay more attention in the future, and absolutely not allow anyone to bully her miss!
The bright red silk was tied all over the Lu family, the Ningyang Houfu, and the Li family. All the miscellaneous matters before the wedding were settled. At night, the Lu family was even more lively because they were officially preparing for the wedding.
Lu Lingyun had only closed her eyes for a few hours when she was woken up by the wedding maids, washed her face and cleaned her face. The matchmaker used two thin threads to remove the noticeable down on Lu Lingyun’s face and neck, revealing smooth skin. The face-opening ceremony meant that she was no longer a young girl, but a real adult.
Lu Lingyun looked at herself in the mirror, her willow eyebrows and almond-shaped eyes, her skin like jade, and couldn’t help but smile. She was married again.
After the face-opening ceremony, she started putting on makeup and fixing her hair. Seven or eight wedding maids were busy, working from dawn till the rooster crowed. When dawn arrived, she was already wearing the most beautiful red wedding dress, her head laden with pearls and jade, her head covered with a veil, and she sat quietly in the room, amidst the complicated procedures and the blessings, she welcomed the sedan chair that came to pick her up.
Lu Lingyun was carried to the sedan chair by her younger brother, who was somewhat familiar with her.
Picking up the bride, boarding the sedan chair, getting off the sedan chair, stepping over the brazier, entering the door, bowing before the ancestral tablet… and then being sent to the bridal chamber.
Unfortunately, this time she had none of the excitement and youthful anticipation she had felt the first time. She was like a doll, being manipulated all day long, and after the final declaration, she was finally sent to the bridal chamber.
The Houfu was bustling with activity, and the noise didn’t subside until the middle of the night. The door to Lu Lingyun’s room was finally pushed open.
Lu Lingyun was still under the red veil, the candlelight flickering, in the limited field of vision, she saw a pair of red male boots.
“You are the one from the Lu family?”
