Lin Qin walked in front of Su Dingheng and said softly, âMarquis Su, had you been blinded by the joyous occasion and forgotten the etiquette of our Great Cheng Dynasty? This was the main entrance of the Marquisâs residence, and it was the center of attention. How could a concubine enter through the main entrance? Besides, how could this concubine be worthy of wearing red?â
Su Dingheng came to a sudden realization. He quickly let go of Liu Shulanâs hand and backed away from the door of the sedan.
He looked gratefully at Lin Qin. âThank you for your reminder, Lord Lin. Otherwise, it would have been extremely embarrassing!â
âMarquis, why didnât you quickly get someone in the residence to prepare a set of clothes for Lady Liu to change into? If todayâs matter had spread, even if I hadnât said it, wouldnât there have been people who would have complained about Marquis in the Hall of Diligent Government tomorrow?â Lin Qin deliberately made the matter sound more serious.
He was in charge of the Ministry of Rites and was a third-rank official with a higher rank than Su Dingheng. Su Dingheng didnât suspect him and immediately waved his hand to order the servants. âMen, quickly change into a wedding dress! It canât be red!â
âMarquis, this⦠We hadnât prepared anything!â The butler was a little embarrassed.
Which family would have prepared a second wedding dress for their wedding?
And even if Marquis had forgotten that concubines couldnât wear red, did this married lady not know?
Or did she think that she could enter the house just because she treated herself as the first wife?
When Su Yurou heard Su Dinghengâs words, she stomped her feet in anger. She tugged at Su Dinghengâs sleeve and acted coquettishly. âFather, Mother waited for you for so many years. How could you have treated her like this? If she couldnât enter through the main entrance, did she have to change her wedding dress on the street?â
This had been a great humiliation for the married woman!
Su Jinxuan had always been a man of few words, but he couldnât hold it in any longer. âFather, it would have been fine if we hadnât entered through the main entrance. At that moment, I was afraid it would have been difficult to find a second wedding dress that wasnât red. Why didnât we let Mother enter the residence first?â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âThisâ¦â Su Dingheng had been in a difficult position.
Lin Qin hadnât said anything else, but he had kept a stern expression as he stood at the side. The words âetiquette cannot be oversteppedâ seemed to have been written on his face.
Su Dingheng had been like an ant on a hot pan. Marrying Liu Shulan had been important, but his official position had not been able to be ignored on this occasion!
If he had to choose between others and an official position, he would have chosen the latter without hesitation!
âMiss, the clothes are here,â Zhilan had come out from the crowd and had carried a tray to Su Yingxueâs side.
Su Yingxue had caressed the orange wedding dress and had smiled.
When Su Hao had seen her holding the wedding dress and walking to Su Dinghengâs side, his eyes had been filled with doubt. âWhen did she have prepared all these?â
Fortunately, Shu Yan had stood beside him and had told him, âMiss had already prepared it. Zhilan had personally sewn this dress!â
Shu Yan had looked at Su Yingxue now, and his eyes had been shining. It had not been because of anything else, but because he had felt that Su Yingxueâs brain had been a little too good. It had been as if she had predicted everything that had happened that day.
Su Yingxue had pushed the wedding dress to Su Dinghengâs side and had said gently, âI had prepared a wedding dress for Aunt Liu without permission. At that moment, I wondered if Aunt Liu would have been willing to change into it?â
Su Dingheng had turned his head and had seen the orange-red wedding dress. His eyes instantly lit up as he praised Su Yingxue repeatedly, âYou have been a thoughtful child! Quickly, bring it to your aunt to change into!â
âFather, it would have been unlucky for a woman to change her wedding dress on the day of marriage.â Su Jinxuan had looked at Su Yingxue with a dark gaze.
He hadnât forgotten what Su Yingxue had done at the Wangjiang Tower last time!
Now, he wouldnât have let her harm his mother so easily.
âYes, Father! How could you have made your mother suffer like this? What red tape? Donât tell me it couldnât have compared to Motherâs position in your heart?â Su Yurouâs eyes had turned red..
