Chapter 789 Please give me some advice
Xie Jingchi stepped forward, and the matchmaker smiled widely and said all kinds of auspicious words.
The matchmaker was about to present the wedding pole, but Xie Jingchi had already reached out and lifted the veil.
For a moment, under the flickering red candle, the two looked at each other.
Xie Jingchi couldn't help but be in a trance, the girl's beautiful face was reflected in his dark pupils.
Perhaps it was because of the makeup that made her skin, which was already as white as jade, even more delicate and fair, like a beauty walking out of a painting.
She rarely put on bright red lipstick and drew dark eyebrows, which made her cold and distant face suddenly become bright, warm and flamboyant.
Just as Xie Jingchi was looking at her seriously, Shen Shuyi was also looking at him seriously.
She always felt that he was much whiter than when she first met him, with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes like stars. His narrow and beautiful phoenix eyes were deep and cold, with hidden waves.
His lips are slightly thin and bright in color, giving people a feeling of coldness and indifference.
In addition, what is more worth mentioning is the lazy aura that is both good and evil in him, which is difficult to understand and unfathomable.
And at this moment, the harsh and mean man actually made her see some tenderness in his eyes.
Xie Jingchi laughed and said in a deep voice, "Madam."
Shen Shuyi couldn't explain why, she just felt the night was hot under the cicadas' chirping, and she smiled and said, "Husband."
It was no longer appropriate to call him Lord Xie. Once she called him husband, it seemed that from then on, the two of them were tied to the same rope.
The matchmaker was standing by with a big smile on her face, saying auspicious words all the time, and came over to spread peanuts, longans and other things.
"Princess, please try it." The matchmaker said with a smile.
Shen Shuyi looked at the peanuts in the matchmaker's hand, looking slightly embarrassed. Although he knew that this was the usual procedure for marriage, but... the child...
She had never thought about the problem of children.
In her previous life, she had raised Lou Yulan's two children as her own, and she had also been learning how to be a qualified mother.
Unfortunately, those two children were not her biological children after all, and with Lou Yulan instigating, to her, they were just ungrateful wolves who could never be tamed, which really made her sad.
So in this life, is she going to have a child with Xie Jingchi?
It was not until this moment that Shen Shuyi realized that, despite all her planning, she had never considered having children before marriage.
Thinking of this, Shen Shuyi couldn't help but look at Xie Jingchi again.
He is so handsome, it would be worth it if he had a child.
Her eyes seemed to be filled with autumn water, and the moment she looked at him, Xie Jingchi mistakenly thought that she was begging him for mercy.
At that moment, Xie Jingchi took the peanuts from the bride's hand, put them between his lips and teeth, took a bite, and said in a deep voice: "Raw."
This scene made everyone in the group dumbfounded.
Shen Shuyi was stunned, and then was amused by him.
After being stunned for a moment, the matchmaker immediately came to her senses: "My Lord, you are worried about the princess. The princess is so lucky! ~"
Shen Shuyi avoided the sight of the group, her almond-shaped eyes slightly drooped, and her earlobes were stained with a faint pink blush.
After everyone had left, Xie Jingchi walked to the table, poured two glasses of wine, and handed one to Shen Shuyi.
Shen Shuyi took it, and under the warm candlelight, he looked at the handsome face so close to him, and his heartbeat slowed down for a moment.
"My lady, drink with me."
Shen Shuyi did not refuse. After taking it, he raised the glass and drank the wine in his hand.
The wine was a bit spicy. Shen Shuyi didn't drink it often, so he really couldn't get used to it.
She put the cup aside, looked at Xie Jingchi, and said with a smile: "For the rest of my life, I hope Mr. Xie will give me more guidance."
Xie Jingchi raised the corners of his lips, his brows full of vigor and vitality.
"I want to ask Madam to give me more guidance."
Shen Shuyi sneered, walked to the dressing mirror and took off the phoenix crown. Somehow, a word came to her mind - smooth talk.
If it were in the past, she would never associate this word with Xie Jingchi.
But now, I just feel that we are a perfect match.
Shen Shuyi took off the pearls and jade and asked someone to prepare water for a bath. The bathroom was inside the bedroom, a separate single room separated by a screen from the outside, and it was fully equipped with everything you need.
Even when he was soaking in the bathtub, Shen Shuyi was still a little dazed.
After two lifetimes, she actually got married again.
But unlike the previous life, this time, I already have too many things in my hands.
Shen Shuyi closed her eyes gently and couldn't help but think of the night when she married Xiao Tingshan in her previous life.
In fact, she can no longer remember the specific details.
She just remembered that the people in Duke Cheng's Mansion were not friendly, and she had suffered a lot of ridicule before she even took off her veil.
As for Xiao Tingshan...
He was weak, but he wanted to appear happy, so after three rounds of drinking, he drank until he vomited blood.
Therefore, the original wedding night was a mess both inside and outside. She was busy asking a doctor to see Xiao Tingshan, and had to deal with her mother-in-law's procrastination, her sister-in-law's ridicule, and the servants' manipulation.
It was a chaotic night and she didn't quite remember how she got through it, but she only remembered that it was never as peaceful as it was now.
Xiao Tingshan slept for two days before he finally woke up. She stayed by his side, taking care of him without taking off her clothes.
But even so, she still couldn't avoid being scolded by Lady Chengguo, who said that she had failed to consummate her marriage with Xiao Tingshan.
Soon after, news spread from Duke Cheng's Mansion that she was unlucky in marriage. It was said that as soon as she got married, she made Xiao Tingshan seriously ill and fell into a coma.
A faint mist filled his vision. Thinking about it now, Shen Shuyi felt that everything in his previous life was too absurd.
Unfortunately, when people are in the game, it is often difficult to see the truth.

When Shen Shuyi came out of the bathroom, Xie Jingchi had already finished taking a shower in the outer bathroom.
He changed into a white undergarment that hung loosely on his body, and was now sitting at the table reading a book.
Shen Shuyi had a strange look on his face. Could he really still concentrate on watching at a time like this?
Seeing this, Shen Shuyi did not disturb him. He walked directly to another table and picked up a book to read.
Xie Jingchi paused, looked up, his eyes narrowed slightly, and there was some danger in his eyes.
Shen Shuyi remained unmoved and ignored his knife-like gaze.
A moment later, Xie Jingchi took a handkerchief and walked behind her, saying in a deep voice: "Your hair is not dry yet, I will help you."
Shen Shuyi didn't say anything. She just felt a faint fragrance after bathing rushing into her nose when he approached. It was the same smell as him, clean and pleasant.
"Was the person who tried to assassinate me today targeting me or you?" Shen Shuyi thought of the business and asked.
Xie Jingchi looked at her and said slowly: "You."
Shen Shuyi frowned: "Someone wants to kill me?"
She thought about it quickly in her mind, but unfortunately she was wearing a veil in the sedan chair today and everything happened too quickly, so she didn't pay attention to the situation around her.
As Shen Shuyi was thinking, Xie Jingchi said, "It's not to kill you."
"Why is that?" Shen Shuyi turned his head and looked at Xie Jingchi.
"Kidnap the bride." Xie Jingchi looked straight at her with his dark eyes and spoke in a low voice.
Shen Shuyi was stunned for a moment: "Kidnap?"
Which madman kidnapped the bride?
In an instant, she thought of something and asked, "Xiao Tingshan's people?"
