Chapter 1108: The Night Before

~7 min read 1,355 words

Bingzhu and the others wandered around in the morning, ate at noon, and were dragged around again in the afternoon. In reality, where they went was not decided by them, but by those Soldiers of the Phylum of the Secretariat. They were truly just leading Bingzhu and the others in circles around Huaxia until they were exhausted.

Changle and Ayuduo were conserving their energy, because tomorrow's wedding would surely be very tiring. People from the Ministry of Rites also came to tell them the precautions. Fortunately, the etiquette at this time was still very simple; otherwise, they would have had to learn for at least a few days in advance to manage.

Ayuduo's clothes were also prepared to be delivered in the evening. Changle already had his clothes from before; as a Prince of Huaxia, how could he not have fine robes?

The clothes, along with the jewelry, were delivered into Ayuduo's hands. The Zhinu brought their tools; they wanted to see Ayuduo put them on with their own eyes, and then make adjustments on the spot according to the situation to avoid problems tomorrow.

After Changle helped Ayuduo change into the clothes, it felt as if she had become a different person, even more beautiful and radiant. Changle could not take his eyes off her for a moment.

A Zhinu pushed Changle aside: "Prince, move aside, let us see if it fits!"

Immediately, they conducted a detailed inspection of Ayuduo, ensuring that every Button was secure and every ribbon was sturdy, so that no problems would arise tomorrow.

The clothes fit very well, and the Zhinu were very satisfied. They then put the newly crafted jewelry on Ayuduo. Ayuduo liked such beautiful jewelry very much, but it seemed that Huaxia's emphasis on her was a bit too great. Once the jewelry was on her body, she immediately felt the weight, which made her feel a bit strained. It seemed this could only be worn during such grand events and could not be worn normally.

Changle had been completely captivated by Ayuduo; how could his own wife be so beautiful? It was just that the light was dim now, so he couldn't see clearly. If it were daytime, he felt Ayuduo could have him completely bewitched.

Seeing that everything was suitable, the Zhinu closed the door directly, and then began to take the jewelry and clothes off Ayuduo's body. Ayuduo was a bit reluctant: "Why take them off? Let me wear them a little longer."

"No, wear them again tomorrow. You must not wear them tonight. If they get damaged, it will be too late tomorrow. Even if they get wrinkled, it won't do. Tomorrow is a very important sacrificial ceremony; you must, must take it seriously." After saying this, they gave Changle a look, wanting Changle to grasp the situation himself and absolutely not move the clothes around.

Changle understood the importance of this matter and could only nod obediently.

Immediately, the Zhinu began to put a new type of garment on the bare Ayuduo and pulled Changle over: "Prince, come, learn how to put this on. You have to help her put it on well tomorrow; there must, must not be any problems!"

Changle was not shy at all and quickly started learning. It was actually just a chest wrap; wearing it tomorrow would highlight her figure and also avoid exposure if an accident occurred. Underwear was something that would normally be there; those with higher status and wealthier families would all arrange for underwear. Changle himself even had boxer shorts.

Only after everything was thoroughly arranged for Ayuduo did the Zhinu nod with peace of mind and leave. The servants in the entire courtyard were now prepared; they could not sleep at all tonight, not even for a second, for fear of delaying tomorrow's affairs.

In any case, regardless of whether their bodies could hold up, they had to endure no matter what. They could not relax for a moment, right up until Changle and Ayuduo slept in their room tomorrow night.

When it came down to it, they were still Slaves. Things like human rights should not appear in relation to them. Being strict and harsh with them was normal.

Being too good to them usually would instead make them forget their own status. At a time like this, they might even ask, "How can you do this? Why don't we take shifts? I want to rest too!"

However, if they dared to say such things, what they would receive would certainly be a sound beating, followed by a demotion in Slave quality and being sent to work in a factory. When a Slave no longer had the mindset a Slave should have, they were no longer a good Slave.

Baifeng was actually inexplicably a bit nervous now. When Yulong got married, he was also nervous, but fortunately, he persevered. This time, with Changle getting married, he still wasn't quite used to it and was still a bit nervous. However, this time it was fine, because he had already met Ayuduo and had also let Ayuduo sit at the table to eat. This wedding was just going through the motions; it was nothing.

Chinv was crying with excitement. Compared to other women, she was a bit pitiful because she had too few children. In this era, not being able to have many children was a sin, especially not being able to have children for Baifeng. For a long time, Sui and Chinv had been under quite a bit of psychological pressure.

Fortunately, Baifeng told them that his children were excellent, which was why they had few. If they had several or a dozen, the children might be stupid and useless. It was not like him; he just used this to persuade and comfort the two of them, so they didn't have such great psychological pressure.

His only son was finally getting married now. Chinv's happy mood naturally could not be concealed. Yulong was also her son, but after all, he didn't come out of her own belly, so there was still a lack of that bit of affection. There was also Yu; the affection between Sui and Yu was slightly better, after all, when Yu was young, Baifeng and Sui watched him grow up.

Sui was also happy, but not as much as Chinv. She was right there, constantly holding clothes and measuring them to see what would be most suitable to wear tomorrow. She also pulled the weeping Chinv to try on clothes and casually slapped Chinv on the buttocks.

During the day, as soon as the holiday was announced, everyone's emotions were already running high. Moreover, the supply of Wine was released in advance, and it wasn't just sold in shops; it was directly loaded onto ox carts and sold in zones. What was collected in return was not grain, but Grain Coupons. If they took actual grain, that would be another huge task for the Ministry of Revenue.

Baifeng's prestige was very high; everyone liked Baifeng and admired Baifeng. Baifeng's son was naturally also loved, not to mention that both of them were extremely capable. Changle had also made many contributions to Huaxia, so naturally, with Changle's wedding, all the people of Huaxia were happy and sincerely wishing them well.

Wine was also no longer limited in supply. Such a good thing might not be encountered once a year, so everyone was even happier. It wasn't that people in this era were already fond of drinking, but in a situation where there was nothing else to numb themselves with, Wine was the best choice.

Wine didn't taste good, and tobacco didn't taste much better, but humans just liked it. They would also look for all kinds of things that could make them addicted, always on the road to self-destruction. However, it wasn't just humans.

Dogs liked the venom on toads, and it was best when they poisoned themselves until their mouths were full of foam. Lemurs liked the smell of millipedes, just for that stimulating feeling. Could this possibly be a defect in the process of biological evolution?
