As a wedding nanny, she actually yelled bad on the street on such a big day? She obviously did it on purpose.
Han Yunxi was about to lift the curtain to see what was going on, but she changed her mind. As a bride, she disregarded etiquette and showed her face on the street. Wouldn't she be drowned in the spit of the ancients?
She could only give up and listen quietly. From the noise outside, it was obvious that there were many onlookers.
"Oh, wrong. We went the wrong way. We should have turned right at the intersection. We turned left!" The wedding nanny's tone was almost crying.
"I thought you were making a fuss about something. This road also leads to Prince Qin's Mansion. "
"That's right, that's right. Nanny Wang, are you muddle-headed? Why are you saying such unlucky things on such a big day? Didn't you also point to turn left?"
… …
The sedan bearers spoke one after another, but Nanny Wang kept stomping the ground, "I'm muddle-headed! This is bad! It'll take at least two hours to walk from here. The bride will miss the auspicious hour! "
As soon as she said this, the crowd fell silent.
Auspicious hour was something that many people paid attention to in modern times, let alone in ancient times.
After a while, a sedan bearer timidly asked, "Then … then turn right?"
"What are you talking about?" The wedding nanny fiercely stomped her feet. The thick rouge on her face cracked because of her anger, "The bride can't turn back, and she can't walk back. Are you cursing the bride to be divorced?"
These words made the sedan bearer speechless.
Han Yunxi rolled her eyes in the sedan. This matchmaker obviously wanted her to be late on purpose. The Prince Qin's Mansion didn't send a welcoming party, and the groom didn't come either. They only sent a wedding nanny.
She hadn't even married into the family, but she already gave her a show of strength. If she missed the auspicious hour, wouldn't the Prince Qin's Mansion shift the blame to her in the future?
Han Yunxi wished she could get out of the sedan and say she didn't want to marry. She wanted to get rid of the groom on the street. However, she was very clear about her situation. There were jackals and wolves in her maternal family, and her in-laws were tigers and leopards. She inherited the identity of a good-for-nothing ugly girl in the Han Family. She couldn't act recklessly.
She could only take one step at a time. In any case, it was the Empress Dowager who bestowed the marriage and the Emperor who ordered it. She wanted to see what the Duke of Qin's Manor would do to her.
Matchmaker and the sedan bearers discussed for a long time, but in the end, they could only continue on their journey. The four sedan bearers ran as if their lives depended on it, causing Han Yunxi to be thrown off balance.
However, in the end, he still missed the auspicious hour and was late by an hour.
The Duke of Qin's Manor's three zhang tall imposing doors were tightly shut. Even the side doors were all shut. The entrance was crowded with the commoners of the capital, who had long since begun to point and gossip.
"I heard that Han Yunxi is very ugly. No wonder the Duke of Qin was not even willing to show his face."
"Hehe, even the most beautiful woman in the world wants to marry into the Duke of Qin's Mansion. What is Han Yunxi worth? The way I see it, even if you go in, you'll only be left with an empty room. "
"You don't say, he's a big shot. He came an hour late. Aiyo, my legs are sore from waiting! "
…
If the Han Yunxi of the past heard these words, wouldn't she cry herself to death? Unfortunately, the Han Yunxi of the present was no longer the cowardly, self-abased, and pitiful wretch from the past.
She was indifferent to the pain and itch. While rubbing the lump on her cheek, she looked out through the gap in the curtains. She saw that the Duke of Qin's Manor's main door was empty, without any festive decorations. If it weren't for the bridal sedan, no one would know that this family was getting married today.
Cold and empty place was undoubtedly telling Han Yunxi that she was not welcome. Even if she delivered herself to the Duke of Qin's Manor, he wouldn't want her.
Nanny Wang was knocking on the door. She didn't dare to use too much force, just gently knocking. After a while, the main door remained silent, but the side door opened. An old gatekeeper stood inside the door, with no intention of coming out.
Nanny Wang hurriedly ran over. She was very professional. She laughed joyfully, "The bride is here! The bride is here! "
Unexpectedly, the old servant glanced at the bridal sedan and disdainfully said, "The Consort Dowager ordered that we missed the auspicious hour. Come back tomorrow!"
After saying that, he closed the door with a bang.
