How would she know what people from ancient times get for one another as presents?
“As for when to return home, let’s think about it after the banquet.”
They had been in the capital for only a few days so far. It was soon to leave, wasn’t it?
Ye Mo frowned but did not say anything else. He was obviously sulking.
“Mo, what’s that for? You don’t look pleased!” Liu Duo said, seeing that he was clearly in a bad mood.
She realized that this man not only had a terrible temper, but he was wilful too.
Ye Ling gave his brother a sideways glance and added, “Yes, Mo, what’s that for? You’ve been brooding since this morning. It’s scary.”
Ye Mo folded his arms in front of his chest and lifted his chin. “It’s one of those days that comes every month, alright!”
Pffft…
Liu Duo could not contain her laughter.
Was he joking?
One of those days? Every month?
Did he think he was a woman with a menstrual period?
“Oh, Mo, you’re feeling down, aren’t you? Why don’t Ling and I sing a song for you? Will that make you happy?”
“Sure, go ahead!” Ye Mo said smugly, very welcoming of the idea.
Liu Duo pursed her lips and rolled her eyes at him, wondering, wow, way to be upfront about it…do you think you’re still a kid?
Ye Ling’s jaw twitched. Mo, don’t fall in line like that. I don’t know how to sing!
“Stop being so smug about yourself! Get over it and massage my legs. I feel so sore!” Liu Duo cracked a joke.
She certainly did not have the energy to fool around. Nap time was rolling close.
Ye Mo came to her bedside when he was called and got straight to work stretching her leg muscles without any complaints.
Ye Ling fanned them from the other side and fanned himself too from time to time. It was a harmonious scene.
Liu Duo believed she had won the jackpot of life to be doted on by her husbands like this!
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Today was the day Ming Yan and Little Tian were to be wedded. The gang, having been invited by Dongfang Ming, set out early right after they had their breakfast.
The family of five walked leisurely towards Ming Yan’s newly bought house.
Both Ming Yan and Little Tian did not have any relatives, so they skipped several complicated rituals usually performed for such an occasion. Ming Yan did not escort the bride either. Instead he waited for Little Tian’s sedan chair to arrive as he stood by the entrance, dressed fully in red.
Aside from the Ye family, members of the Dongfang manor as well as several of Ming Yang’s well-connected colleagues were attending the banquet.
On the other side, Little Tian, also dressed in red, stepped onto the bridal sedan under Wang Xiangyun’s guidance.
Ming Yan’s red attire made him stand out much more than when he was wearing his darker suits. This was his big day, yet his face showed not a bit of excitement.
Liu Duo and Ye Ling were confused by the situation.
They did not know yet that the lucky lady who would step out of the sedan chair later was none other than Little Tian, Wang Xiangyun’s servant.
“Duo Er, what’s with Brother Ming’s long face? He’s getting married today, shouldn’t he be happy?” Ye Ling whispered in her ear.
“I don’t know.” Liu Duo shrugged. She did not quite understand it either.
She had been quite excited to be able to witness the marriage ritual of ancient times, but did not expect it to turn out like this.
It was very unlike the ones she had seen on television in her past life!
