Chi Xia paused and turned to look at Jia Su. When she found that she was really confused, she couldn't help but laugh, "Miss, you forgot that although you and Lin Tanhua's marriage has been settled, the sixth ceremony hasn't started yet."

Miss Si and Lin Tanhua had gone through the sixth ceremony, but after the bride was replaced by Jia Su, they definitely had to go through the wedding process again.

The marriage proposal was when the man took a fancy to the woman and asked a matchmaker to act as a matchmaker. If the woman agreed, she would accept the engagement gift from the man, which was usually a wild goose.

Asking her name was a match of eight characters. After a successful marriage proposal, the man would ask the woman's name and time of birth to divine whether their eight characters were a match.

If the eight characters were compatible, the man would ask the matchmaker to bring a gift to the woman and inform the woman that the marriage could continue.

In other words, it was what was known today as the Wen Ding, or Xiao Ding.

After that, there was also the marriage proposal, which was known as the marriage proposal. It included the man's gift and the woman's gift in return.

After the marriage proposal, the man would divine the wedding date and ask the matchmaker to bring the marriage proposal to the woman's house. He would inform the woman of the date and ask for her opinion.

If the woman agreed, the wedding ceremony would be prepared.

Only after the marriage proposal was accepted could the marriage be considered to be in the open.

After the marriage proposal, the marriage would be considered to be really settled and there would be no more changes.

Previously, the marriage between Jia Min and Lin Ruhai only went through the marriage proposal. Later, there was a change in the marriage proposal. The news released by the two families was that the two people's eight characters were incompatible, so the marriage proposal was easily canceled.

Whether other people believed it or not, at least the two people's reputations were not damaged.

However, because the marriage between Jia Su and Zhou Yu had been settled, it caused a lot of speculation from the outside world, which affected the two people's reputations.

Fortunately, the marriage proposal (which was usually carried out a month before the wedding) had not been carried out, so it was not to the point of no return.

This was also the most important reason why the two marriages could be successfully exchanged in the end.

If the marriage proposal was over, Jia Min's final ending would be to be accompanied by a lamp and a statue of Buddha.

And Zhou Yu's ending would definitely not be any better.

Chi Xia carefully broke down the ancient wedding process for Jia Su to hear. Only then did she realize that her previous relationship with Lin Ruhai was not considered an engaged couple in the eyes of outsiders.

Jia Su recalled his previous behavior and couldn't help but twitch his mouth.

However, no one would pursue the matter.

The two families officially began the wedding process, and there were no twists and turns in the middle. Soon, they reached the last stage of the wedding.

Escorting the bride.

Early in the morning, Jia Su was pulled out of bed. First, she was dressed by the matron of honor (using multicolored silk thread to remove the hair on her face). After that, she was tossed around a bunch of things. It wasn't until the guests had eaten the wedding banquet at noon that she was covered with a veil and carried by Jia Xie to the front of the wedding sedan.

Because of the significance of the marriage between the two families, even if Madam Jashi was unwilling, she could only step forward and 'cry on the sedan chair'.

Even though Jia Su's head was covered with a veil, she could feel how reluctant Madam Jashi was when she cried and how impatient she was when she recited the words.

The only thing that surprised her was that when she was carried to the sedan chair, Jia Xie whispered in her ear, "If Lin Ruhai treats you badly, just come back and find me. I will definitely teach him a lesson for you."

Jia Su was a little dumbfounded at first. After all, although Jia Xie wasn't considered a complete evil person in the original novel, she was still a thoroughly evil person.

However, when she thought of Jia Xie's various acts of foolish filial piety to Madam Jashi, Jia Su understood.

The escorting team circled around the capital before arriving at Marquis Wen 'an's mansion in the evening.

At this time, Mother Lin was already sitting on the main seat.

"First bow to the heavens and the earth —"

"Second bow to the ancestors —"

"Third bow to the elders —"

"Husband and wife bow to each other —"

Jia Su listened to the master of ceremonies' orders and bowed in succession. However, she felt that … this procedure was a little different from what she knew.

Just when Jia Su thought that the next sentence would be "Send them to the bridal chamber", she discovered that the master of ceremonies had stopped talking. Then, he came to her and Lin Ruhai's side and guided them in another direction.

After bowing to the Lin family's elders one by one, and then to the guests and friends, Jia Su was led into the bridal chamber by Lin Ruhai.

-

Jia Su waited in the bridal chamber for a long time, but Lin Ruhai still hadn't come in, so she was a little impatient.

Moreover, she was hungry. The Lin family didn't have a sister-in-law to arrange dinner for her, so she couldn't help but want to lift the veil.

Fortunately, Chi Xia was alert and quickly stopped her.

However, the most important thing was that not long after, a servant girl came in with a bowl of chicken soup, which very well alleviated Jia Su's hunger.

After a long time, Lin Ruhai, who reeked of alcohol, finally entered the bridal chamber, surrounded by a group of people.

Lin Ruhai's friends were all scholars. They just wanted to join in the fun and weren't keen on it. When they heard that Jia Su was only a concubine-born daughter, they were worried that she wouldn't be able to respond to their jokes, so they quickly let the newlyweds go.

The matron of honor brought in a plate of dumplings and looked expectantly at Jia Su.

Jia Su had heard of the custom of eating raw dumplings, so she straightforwardly picked up her chopsticks and reached for the plate.

She didn't know if the kitchen had cut corners when cooking, but Jia Su originally only wanted to pick up a raw dumpling and eat it as a token of appreciation. Unexpectedly, when she picked up a dumpling, another dumpling stuck to the dumpling she had picked up and was picked up as well.

In the bridal chamber, the Lin family's servants all widened their eyes in surprise. There were even a few elders who couldn't help but cry out.

Even Lin Ruhai, who was sitting next to Jia Su, looked a little dazed.

Jia Su hesitated for a moment. She thought that if she put down the dumpling she had picked up at this time, not only would it be bad, but it might also disappoint the Lin family's servants in the bridal chamber. She braced herself and stuffed the dumpling into her mouth, but swallowed it after chewing a few times.

The matron of honor promptly spoke, "Are you going to give birth?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Jia Su shouted three times in a row and was about to put down her chopsticks.

However, the others' gazes were too intense, which made her feel uneasy, "What's wrong?" Didn't she already eat the dumplings?

The people in the room, "… …"

Chi Xia quickly poked Jia Su, "Keep eating!"

Jia Su, "… …" No way, these half-cooked dumplings really tasted bad.

However, the others' gazes were intense, so she didn't dare to act recklessly at this time.

Thinking of this, she reached for the plate of dumplings with her chopsticks again.

Fortunately, there were no accidents this time. She smoothly picked up only one dumpling.

"Are you going to give birth?"

"Yes!"

"Are you going to give birth?"

"Yes … …"

After eating seven or eight half-cooked dumplings in a row, Jia Su was finally let off by the matron of honor.

After drinking cross-cupped wine, Jia Su and Lin Ruhai each cut a lock of hair under the matron of honor's request and put it in a bun. After that, the others left the bridal chamber one by one.

After everyone left, Jia Su immediately turned her head and stared at Lin Ruhai, "Husband, shouldn't we go to the bridal chamber?"
