After a lot of noise, Xu Tongxuan asked cautiously: "Master Si, how about... you and Xinya also show us how to drink the wedding wine!"
She would never admit it. She really wanted to see the "shy" look of the calm Emperor Si when he and Xinya drank the wedding wine. She really wanted to see an expression other than calmness on Si's face.
Si Yiyan raised his eyes and asked, "Want to watch us drink the wedding wine?"
Ye Feiyu and Du Ruo nodded repeatedly: "Yes!"
Si Yiyan said: "When Xinya and I get married, I will definitely let you guys watch the ceremony!"
The "jiaobei wine" means the "heqin wine", which symbolizes marriage!
The wedding wine is drunk on the wedding night, which means that the husband and wife will become one from now on and will never be separated. It also expresses that the husband and wife are of one mind, share weal and woe, and share hardships!
As a man who respects ancient wedding customs and traditions, how can such an important process be carried out carelessly in the midst of playfulness? The wedding wine ceremony only happens once in a lifetime, and it is more meaningful only on the wedding night.
The friends looked at each other.
Si Yiyan said calmly: "Aren't we going to drink the wedding wine? Why don't you drink it?"
Master Si was a great assist. In their hearts, their friends silently gave him 32 likes. Of course, this did not include the parties involved, Gu Junlin and Zhou Tianyu, as well as Xu Chenyu, who did not get along well with Master Si.
In the end, Gu Junlin and Zhou Tianyu, despite the pressure from their friends, drank the wedding wine with a fearless attitude.
When the party ended, it was already half past ten in the evening. Xu Chenyu kept looking for various opportunities to get Si Yiyan drunk, but was stopped by Wen Xinya in the end. Si Yiyan did not stop him, but hid behind the "woman's butt" openly and calmly, letting the woman "charge into battle" and being a "giant rice" without blushing or breathing hard. This made Xu Chenyu so angry that he gnashed his teeth.
"Hold me!" Wen Xinya's face was red, her bright eyes were filled with moisture, and she stretched out her arms towards Si Yiyan.
Si Yiyan smiled and hugged her into his arms, and chuckled, "Are you drunk?"
Wen Xinya rubbed her little head against Si Yiyan's chest and said in a muffled voice, "No!"
Si Yiyan laughed silently. Although he was not drunk, he was almost drunk.
"You drank quite a bit of wine just now. Are you okay?" Although she tried her best to stand in front of Si Yiyan, Si Yiyan was still forced to drink quite a bit of wine, and she could do nothing to help.
For the past three years, Si Yiyan has been receiving treatment from Grandpa Du. His old illness has almost recovered, and he hasn't had an attack in over three years. It's just that his old illness has been delayed for too long, and he hasn't received good and effective treatment, so it's difficult to completely cure it. It mainly depends on daily conditioning. In addition... Grandpa Du specifically pointed out that among the details that need to be paid attention to in daily life, drinking ranks first.
Therefore, Wen Xinya always strictly ordered him to drink less.
Fortunately, Si Yiyan is not obsessed with alcohol, and he is in a high position and does not have many social engagements. Even if he does not want to drink, no one dares to force him.
Si Yiyan's fingers gently stroked her red cheeks, and his voice was as soft as a feather: "I know my limits and won't joke with my body."
Over the years, Xinya has taken great pains to take care of his health. The speed at which he recovered from his old illness was almost beyond Mr. Du's expectations, and Xinya played an indispensable role in this.
Since she valued his health so much, he naturally wouldn't let her worry.
Wen Xinya finally felt relieved and whispered, "It seems that I will go to Grandpa Du's place for bath therapy and acupuncture next week."
Grandpa Du’s treatment was changed from two days a week to once every half a month. He also stopped taking the traditional Chinese medicine and mainly relied on diet therapy and recuperation.
Wen Xinya leaned in Si Yiyan's arms, his body shielding her from the cold of the night.
"Si Yiyan—" She suddenly called him, calling him by his full name.
"Hmm?" Si Yiyan responded in a low voice, looking at her intently.
“Nothing… nothing!” Wen Xinya avoided his focused gaze. Her deep eyes were like the starry sky on a summer night, distant and vast, mysterious and brilliant. Because the light was so bright, people always dared not look closely.
A hint of inquiry flashed across Si Yiyan's eyes, and her hesitant look was deeply engraved in his mind, as if something was about to come out, but in the end, it was completely obscured by her evasive gaze.
Wen Xinya lowered her eyes to hide the complicated emotions in her eyes: "Si Yiyan, do you know? I always have a feeling that everything I have now is just like a dream, not real at all. When I wake up from the dream, it seems that everything no longer exists."
It has been six or seven years since she was reborn. Her memory of her previous life has become increasingly vague. She rarely thinks of those painful and desperate memories, and the bone-gnawing hatred. But sometimes, she still can't help feeling dazed and having a sense of unreality.
She really wanted to tell Si Yiyan how miserable, dirty and ugly she was in her previous life. She wanted to ask him if he would love and accept her like that!
However, whenever the words come to my lips, I can't help but swallow them back.
Call her selfish, she just wanted Si Yiyan to see her most perfect side. The embarrassing past in her previous life was, after all, just the previous life.
"You feel this way because in your heart, you feel that everything you have is too good. Things that come from too good a source always make people feel unreal or even uneasy. I can regard this emotion of yours as the sequelae of an inflated sense of happiness."
Si Yiyan did not ask her why she had such a feeling, but this did not prevent him from guessing that it was all related to the deep secret in her heart.
Wen Xinya smiled and said, "The sequelae of happiness inflation. This is the first time I've heard of this term."
However, what Si Yiyan said is indeed correct in some aspects. The misery of the previous life and the beauty and happiness of this life form a strong contrast. This strong contrast will always cause inner anxiety and fear.
Si Yiyan kissed her forehead: "I'm proud that you feel this way."
Because this proves that he gave her happiness.
No matter what secrets she hid in her heart, at least she told him that she was happy, and that was enough.
Wen Xinya tilted her head and laughed: "Is this what you call vanity?"
When she was just reborn, all she thought about was becoming stronger and taking revenge. She had never thought about love and marriage. But now she was so grateful to fate. Because of the existence of this man, she felt that her life became complete.
Si Yiyan said: "If you say so, then I am!"
Not every man can make the woman he loves happy, so it is worth being vain about.
