Chapter 179: The Eve of the Grand Wedding, Jia Xu's Strategy, the Wang Family's Trouble!
That night.
In front of a massive residence covering more than ten acres in the east of Jinyang City, a huge gold-plated plaque hung high above the porch.
The two characters "Duan Residence" reflected a golden glow under the light of the torches held by the guards at the gate.
The guards in front of the gate were tall, their expressions solemn and stern.
At this moment, the gate was tightly closed, but inside the residence, it was extremely busy.
Maids in servant attire and servants were all busy preparing for tomorrow's grand wedding.
Some were responsible for cleaning the courtyards, tidying the rooms, and hanging red lanterns and red paper.
The horses used for the wedding procession also needed to be washed.
Every detail had to be handled with extreme care.
The bridal chamber also needed to be decorated.
Because Duan Yu was marrying two wives at once this time, everything needed to be prepared in duplicate.
Red paper, red silk, red candles, and red bedding.
"Over there, straighten the 'double happiness' character over there, yes."
"Xiang'er, add two more pairs of lanterns to the corridor over there; even numbers are auspicious."
"The two wives' dressing tables must be wiped clean."
Jia Xu's wife was directing the servants in the residence.
Tie Shitou, Wang Hunu, Chen Qing'an, and Liu Bai Tu were also busy along with the young men from the Five Villages.
Duan Yu had now become the Jinyang County Commandant.
More than forty young men from the Five Villages had also become Duan Yu's personal guards.
Gao Shun was training the soldiers selected from Dong Zhuo's command at the West Camp outside the city, so he did not come.
"Jia Dong, your wife is not in good health, why did you bring her here? If she trips or falls, just wait and see how Duan Big Brother deals with you!"
Tie Shitou, who was washing the horses, said to Jia Dong, who had brought his wife.
Jia Dong laughed and said: "It's lively here at the Lord's place. Your sister-in-law said it's lively here; it's been a long time since it's been this lively."
Jia Xu's wife immediately stepped forward, reached out to take Jia Dong's wife, Zhang, from Jia Dong's hand, and glared at Jia Dong reproachfully.
Jia Dong scratched his head with a silly laugh.
Just two days ago, the very day Duan Yu gave him the invitation card, he had come directly to the door.
Regarding Duan Yu's recruitment, Jia Dong had almost no hesitation.
He had none of the reserve of the noble clan sons.
It was only because of those words Duan Yu said outside the courtyard wall that he felt respected for the first time since leaving home.
Although he had only followed Duan Yu for two days, seeing these people around Duan Yu.
Jia Dong knew his choice was absolutely correct.
Although everyone in this residence was Duan Yu's subordinate.
Being together felt like a big family.
Harmonious and happy.
This feeling gave Jia Dong a sense of identification and belonging from the bottom of his heart.
The warm-hearted Tie Shitou, the inarticulate and honest Wang Hunu, the meticulous Chen Qing'an, and Liu Bai Tu, who was extremely cold to outsiders but extremely trusting of his own people. ===== CHAPTER 181 =====
