Chapter 165 - Cat's Second Wedding

 I didn't choose to marry the same day as Yin Zi, instead, his wedding was a day after my own.

My mother-in-law and Xiang Qing have been arguing about me for a long time. They want us to say that my son was born from a prior marriage and that I was a widow to avoid gossip about Xiang Qing having a child out of wedlock.

Xiang Qing was so angry that he slammed on the table and said that Xiao Mao was his own son, Why should he hide this from people? In any case, he will use the grandest possession of an unmarried woman to pick me up.

I think it's better for it not to be too troublesome and should just go with what is convenient.

After the continuous argument, my mother-in-law eventually gave in, so I was able to...fully experience another wedding, the mortal wedding seemed even more troublesome than the wedding in Heaven.

According to the custom here, the dowry was sent ahead yesterday. The wedding would be held in the evening at mother-in-law's house, and Xiang Qing will come to pick me up from the new house. Since the afternoon, I had been sat in front of the dressing table. The old nanny directed by my mother-in-law came to use a new comb to arrange my hair for the ceremony, as she combed she recited: "First comb to the end, second comb to white hair and eyebrows, third comb to children and grandchildren and fourth comb to four silver bamboo shoots to complete." Then she went on to my face and said she was going to pluck the fine hairs on my face. I remembered by hairless self from before and was scared to death of hairlessness and so tried to escape, then Wawa and Jin Wen caught me and held me down, and so I could only close my eyes and endure it until it was over.

**(Silver bamboo shoots referring to wealth and prosperity in the marriage)**

Many things such as the rouge and perfume were applied slowly until the sun set. Then, Xiang Qing and the wedding entourage arrived, then Wa Wa, Bai Cai, Han Jing, Xiao Cha and some other unmarried girls who came along hurriedly went to block the door and asked for red envelopes to cross the barrier.

Then the next is the groom is to be beaten by men from the bride's family and to remind him to firmly remember today. Yin Zi and Bull devil came up to give the hits, these two evil hearted people hands were not light at all, Xiang Qing could only suffer and endure the hits to pass over the threshold.

Lou Sha and Jiao Jiao also want to join in the fun too, but could not as they don't know the customs of the people. So sister-in-law could not attend the wedding, so Bull Devil rushed home sullenly to accompany them, but before he left he gave me a gift, it seems to be the latest erotic book...

After giving out red envelopes and receiving the beating, Xiang Qing finally passed the entrance and made it to my door. Then he had to read his adornment poem, because he has always been focused on martial arts he didn't have much literary talent and so we got Molin to write one for him.

After this, my door finally opened. According to the custom, a married relative from the bride's side who is blessed will lead me to the sedan chair, but there really isn't anyone in my family who qualifies as the demon race population is very scarce because of all the fighting, there's a high population of dead and wounded, getting through is only based on luck and skills. We debated for a long time and settled on Xiao Zi, who seemed to barely pass, although the flower demon has no father, mother, brothers or sisters, she is married with a son and her husband is not dead, therefore, she's the best candidate.

Even so, my mother-in-law was not pleased with having such a young girl lead me, I felt a bit discontented.

The sedan chair is very large, with the front being carried by Shao Zhong, Jian Nan, Xiao Tian and Xiao Huang, and the back, by four people from Xuan Qing Palace. Actually, all these people lifting it is not necessary, but they felt that is quite fun and so grabbed on. Molin said that he is old. Cannot move. Xiaolin was accompanying Xiang Qing, prepared to drink all the wine and not moving.

On the way, the roads were lit with candles and torches, the entire village was brightly illuminated. The distance between the two houses was very close, so the sedan chair only moved for a little while and finally stopped in front of mother-in-law's house. The entrance has been decorated with, inside it was also decorated and there was a table in the middle that had been arranged with fruit offering and there were also two geese on it.

People from mother-in-law's house came over to welcome me from the sedan chair and helped me cross the entrance and enter the house. At this point, I saw mother-in-law walk up from the side and seat on one of the high chairs for the parents of the couple, the bride's side is empty.

Since morning till now I have not closed my eyes. At first, I was a little sleepy and groggily followed Xiang Qing's movement. The first bow to the Heaven and Earth, then bow to parents, then husband and wife exchange bows, Xiang Qing went on his knees, and I prepared to follow suit, when Jin Wen gave me a hard pull and whispered in my ear, "Stupid cat, didn't I tell you before that it is only the man who kneels to bow?"

I remembered this, and so bent my waist to bow to Xiang Qing. Mother-in-law nodded with satisfaction and took out a pair of gold bracelets and handed them to me, I immediately took it.

Then we were led to the bridal chamber and other people came along. I sat on the left side of the bed and Xiang Qing sat on the right, he used the stick to remove the veil and then we were presented with two cups of wine, and we had to link our arms to drink it. After I had finished drinking, I held the cup and our position for a long while before letting go. Brother-in-law kept whispering and hinting at Xiang Qing's side: "Drink and release! Drink!"

Brother-in-law still thinking of Xiang Qing, reprimanded him telling him that it is inauspicious to do this and that he can only bully his wife in the future.

Nonsense, I am the one willing to bully him.

Then, a group of women with copper coins and colorful dried fruits and sprinkled then on me saying that it was so I would be fruitful and bear children, so I desperately used my skirt to try to catch them all.

After all this trouble, they all left the chamber and left me and Xiang Qing alone. The dragon and phoenix red candles burned vigorously and illuminated the room. I finally couldn't help but yawn for a long time, "There's nothing left, right?"

" Yes," I asked Xiang QIng to help remove the heavy crown with a smile.

"No? I asked Luo Luo and she said I could here..." I felt very tired and was fighting to keep my eyes open.

"I want to complete the nuptial ceremony." Xiang Qing said.

It turned out that I had to face the turtle. I secretly pinched myself to become alert and earnestly asked Xiang Qing, "Are you ready? You've been practicing for so long."

Xiang Qing a little awkward replied, "I will work hard."

"I will try hard not to struggle." I quickly promised.

Suddenly there was a snicker from outside. Xiang Qing could not help but sigh, then stood up and went to the window, "Can you please not cause a scene today?"

"Cannot, cannot! Must listen from the window!" Ah... it must be those guys who are afraid that the world is not chaotic enough that are there.

Xiang Qing then said. "Today must have been very exhausting, you all go to the front to drink and rest."

"Not tired, not tired. I am waiting to hear the cat scream." This wretched voice is definitely Molin's.

"Good," Xiang Qing thought for a while and then said, "If you insist on doing this, tomorrow I will go and find you later to exchange martial arts skills."

"Not afraid of you! We live in the Heavens!" Xiao Zi hurriedly spoke up.

I saw Xiang Qing was embarrassed and thinking, so I went forward and said wickedly, "If you continue to stay here, tomorrow I will ride the hell hound and go to the Heavens to find you to fight."

After a moment of silence, all of them disappeared in a flash.

Xiang Qing smiled and took me back to the bed and gently asked. "Can we start?"
