Chapter 1090: Chapter 1096: Anxious Wedding Night 1
She just felt that her mother worked too hard and wanted someone to cherish her. If that couldn’t be done, she would rather things stayed as they had been before.
Moreover, she and her elder sister had both grown up, and they wouldn’t let their mother suffer as before.
Second Dog extended his hand, "Let’s make a pinky promise!"
"Okay!"
The two kids, in the most childish way, had agreed on something—that was to be good to Hu’s Clan from now on.
Er Ya’s request was simple; she didn’t need Second Dog to treat Hu’s Clan like his own mother, but however Hu’s Clan treated them, they would respond in kind.
Having resolved Hu’s Clan’s unease, the atmosphere in the bridal room finally livened up.
The considerate Aunt Huang even brought over some food, and they happened to have just enough to start eating together.
By the time they had eaten and drunk their fill, the banquet at the front had also dispersed.
"The groom is coming!"
Erhu shouted from outside the door.
Qiao Duo’er blinked her eyes, "Sister Lan, good luck, we’re heading out first!"
Huang Zhong was the one who had drunk the Deer Whip Wine. He would surely be vigorous tonight. Hopefully, Sister Lan would still be fine tomorrow.
"Why are you leaving so soon?" Hu’s Clan was a bit panicked.
Wasn’t the next step normally to have some fun in the bridal chamber?
Well... she just wished they could stay with her a little longer now, otherwise she felt nervous.
The mischievous girl said, "You’ve delayed getting married for so long, we wouldn’t want to hold up your evening. And besides, Zi Wen is still at home. I need to rush back and check on him."
Zhang Ziwen now only wanted to interact with her alone. She had been out for so long, he must be in a bad mood by now.
Hu’s Clan looked towards Qiao Duo’er, who was always the most empathetic and surely understood her anxiety.
But unexpectedly, Qiao Duo’er also declined, "Green Group and Tangyuan will start causing trouble if they don’t see me. I need to head back and check on them."
"Sister-in-law, we’ll leave Brother Zhong in your care. We’re heading out."
Erhu gave a heads-up, and although Huang Zhong was somewhat drunk, whether it was real or not, he didn’t know. Anyway, the man was left in the bridal chamber, and what happened next was not his concern anymore.
Hu’s Clan felt a sudden urge to flee, but still smilingly sent the group to the door.
Agreeing to the marriage was her choice, so running away now would be irresponsible.
Once the door was closed, the previously drunken Huang Zhong suddenly sobered up.
The liquor he had drunk was diluted with water, a trick he had learned from Tan Zhenghong.
"I’m sorry for making you uncomfortable." Huang Zhong said with a face full of remorse.
He admitted that some things hadn’t been handled well, resulting in Hu’s Clan losing so much face during the wedding.
Hu’s Clan shook her head, "I’m already married to you; there’s nothing about being comfortable or uncomfortable."
"That’s good. It’s getting late, shall we wash up and go to bed early?"
Huang Zhong asked.
As for today’s shortcomings to Hu’s Clan, he would definitely make it up to her later.
Hu’s Clan blushed and said, "You go ahead, I’ll fix my hair."
She had styled her hair elaborately today and wore quite a few pieces of jewelry; it should take enough time for Huang Zhong to finish washing up.
Huang Zhong pulled Hu’s Clan to sit in front of the vanity, "No one made a scene in the bridal room today, and it’s still early; I’ll take my time fixing it for you."
While speaking, he gently began removing the hairpin from Hu’s Clan’s head.
This was Erhu’s teaching, hoping it might help them relax a bit.
Hu’s Clan sat stiffly, not even knowing where to place her hands; this was the first time a man had combed her hair.
Huang Zhong’s hands were a bit clumsy, but he was very careful, afraid of hurting Hu’s Clan.
After fixing her hair, Huang Zhong fetched water for Hu’s Clan, suggesting she freshen up first. Second Dog had said that washing together was best for bonding.
But he really couldn’t bring himself to do such a thing, also fearing that Hu’s Clan might beat him up.
