Chapter 656 Getting Married
After Gu Qianhan left, Shen Wantang's courtyard became busy again.
Moreover, this time, with the command of Nanny Yan, the maids became much more organized. After all, they were old servants of the Duke's Mansion and had experienced a lot. They could solve the problems that Dujuan and the others could not solve with just a few words.
Originally, Shen Wantang was not very interested in the wedding ceremony, so he just let Du Juan Qinxin and the others do whatever they wanted, as long as it was roughly right. After all, there were not many relatives in the Shen family, so no one would bother.
But Nanny Yan didn't think so. She cared more about the bride than Shen Wantang, and she was unwilling to miss any of the necessary ceremonies.
This made Dujuan and the others very busy.
Although Nanny Yan was strict in ordering the maids around, she was very respectful to her master Shen Wantang. She was afraid that Shen Wantang would be tired all day tomorrow, so she specially helped her to go to bed early so that she could sleep more and have enough energy to prepare for tomorrow's wedding.
Shen Wantang was not actually sleepy, but she could not resist Nanny Yan's kindness and had to lie down on the bed.
Unexpectedly, she actually fell asleep.
At three quarters past three in the morning, Shen Wantang was awakened by Nanny Yan.
"Second Miss, it's time to get up."
Shen Wantang dazedly opened her eyes and saw that it was still pitch black outside. She couldn't help but ask, "Mammy, what time is it? Why do I feel like I just fell asleep?"
"It's Yin time. The Second Miss went to bed at Zi time. So, she only slept for two hours at most. It's a bit short."
Nanny Yan said as she helped her up from the bed. While Shen Wantang was stunned, she handed her a cup of strong tea and said, "Please rinse your mouth, Second Miss."
Shen Wantang took it subconsciously and rinsed his mouth.
Du Juan took the teacup away, and then Nanny Yan said, "Second Miss, close your eyes."
Shen Wantang had just woken up and didn't think much about it. He subconsciously did what she said.
The next moment, a warm handkerchief was placed on her face.
After gently wiping her face, Nanny Yan changed the handkerchief and wiped her hands and feet.
Finally, he took a comb and combed her long hair from head to toe, his movements just as steady and gentle.
Even when Shen Wantang was in Prince Ning's Mansion, she had never been served so well and comfortably. She couldn't help but hold up her chin and think, since Nanny Yan is so nice, should she ask her to come over from Madam Gu?
In her previous life, she had Mammy Chai by her side to keep the maids in check, so she had fewer things to worry about. In this life, she doesn't have Mammy Chai anymore, but Mammy Yan seems to be more capable than Mammy Chai!
Once this thought comes up, it is hard to suppress it.
Shen Wantang chatted with Nanny Yan calmly and also asked about her family situation.
But before they could talk for a few words, Shen Guannian arrived, and behind him, there was someone following: "Tang'er, this is Nanny Xi, whom your father specially selected for you. She will accompany you today and teach you the etiquette and rules."
Shen Wantang looked at the person behind Shen Guannian and felt that Shen Guannian was lying to her without any intention!
Because the Nanny Xi who came was none other than Nanny Chai, who had intimidated the little maids for her in Prince Ning’s mansion in her previous life!
She was very familiar with Madam Chai, and even if she wasn't familiar with her, how could Qin Xin and the others who came from Prince Ning's Mansion not be familiar with her? Wasn't it obvious that this person was sent by Xiao Qingyuan?
However, she did not expose Shen Guannian's lies. She pretended to know nothing and calmly accepted Nanny Chai.
Qin Xin and the others opened their eyes wide in shock. As soon as Shen Guannian left, they immediately surrounded him and asked in a flurry of questions:
"Madam Chai, why are you here?"
"Madam Chai, how did you become Madam Xi? Does the princess know? Does the prince know?"
"Madam Chai, who asked you to come? Don't tell me it was Lord Shen who asked you to come. He definitely can't ask you to come!"
Nanny Chai was filled with helplessness but couldn't express it. She couldn't just tell everyone directly that her prince was going to snatch the bride away today and sent her to lead the charge.
She could only bow to Shen Wantang first and then greet Nanny Yan.
It turned out that she and Nanny Yan were old acquaintances.
Shen Wantang was very happy to see Nanny Chai. Although Nanny Chai didn't remember her, the affection from their previous life still existed. She immediately asked Dujuan to give Nanny Chai a big red envelope.
Nanny Yan had already given it last night, so there was no need to give it again.
Now, with two experienced maids joining the fight, Shen Wantang's situation is as safe as it can be. She doesn't need to worry about anything. The two maids will let her bear any grievances, and everything has been arranged for her.
When the sky was bright, Shen Wantang had already changed into a bright red wedding dress, opened her face, put on makeup, and put on a heavy ruby gold crown.
This golden crown naturally did not belong to Shen Wantang, but was sent by Gu Qianhan.
The golden crown was more gorgeous than the one she wore when she married Xiao Qingyuan in her previous life, and of course, it was also heavier.
Shen Wantang didn't know whether to cry or laugh. She did like gold, but gold that was too heavy didn't seem like a good thing.
Many guests came one after another, and all the female relatives came to see her, including many children. Even though Shen Wantang had been married twice, she still had relatives she didn't recognize when she got married for the third time.
I guess they are all relatives who are as distant as possible. Seeing that she married into the Duke's Mansion, they all took the opportunity to come and establish a relationship with her.
Because she got married, Qi and Shen Mingxuan were both released from house arrest by Shen Guannian temporarily.
But no one was willing to talk to Qi, not even to say a few polite words. After all, the news of her affair with a strange man had spread, and even the news that Shen Guannian was determined to divorce his wife had spread.
Everyone thinks that Shen Guannian should divorce his wife, but now that he can give Qi a decent life, he is already a very good man.
Even today, someone took the opportunity to introduce a girl to Shen Guannian. Now that he has been reinstated and has climbed up a big tree like the Duke's Mansion, his rise to fame is just around the corner. He has become a hot commodity all of a sudden.
"The auspicious time has come!"
With a loud shout, Nanny Yan and Nanny Chai together covered Shen Wantang with a veil.
Not long after, Shen Wantang heard a group of relatives she didn't know well shouting:
"Oh, the groom is here! He's so handsome!"
"Oh, how could the eldest and second sons of the Shen family let the groom in so easily? Our Tang'er is so good, how could he marry her home so easily? Don't we have to give him a few more difficult problems to embarrass him?"
"Look at what Auntie said. Dalang and Erlang wanted to stop her, but how could they stop the groom? He is the number one prodigy in Dafeng!"
"Hahaha, that's right, that's why today's wedding is going extra smoothly!"
"That's right, Mr. Gu and our Tang'er are a true match made in heaven, they're a perfect match!"
Amidst the chatter of the crowd, the sound of firecrackers rang out.
Afterwards, Shen Wantang was helped up by the nanny and walked out.
She stepped over the threshold, and her heart finally felt a little moved.
This is her third time getting married, there won't be a fourth time, right? If it happens again, she really won't be able to bear it.
