The early spring rain, lingering and mixed with the fragrance of grass and flowers, floats in the air. The misty West Lake is so beautiful that it seems a little unreal. On the narrow walkway along the green willow embankment on the shore, a paper umbrella accidentally scraped against another paper umbrella walking in the opposite direction. The person under the umbrella hurriedly bowed and apologized: "Sorry, I didn't mean it."
"It's okay." Under the other paper umbrella, the woman's voice was calm without any blame.
The voice sounded familiar. The young man in blue was stunned for a moment, and looked up under the other person's umbrella, but he only saw two graceful figures, one white and one blue, under the paper umbrella painted in ink. The lowered umbrella edge obscured the faces under the umbrella. Just as he was about to ask something, the pregnant woman beside the young man in blue urged him softly, "Husband, let's go quickly. My sister and brother-in-law are waiting for us to go to the grave together."
"Okay, ma'am." The scholar in blue responded, then apologized to the two people under the umbrella opposite, then helped the woman pass by the two women.
"It's that idiot Xu Xian." He raised the paper umbrella, and saw two people under the umbrella with equally beautiful faces, one blue and one white, a perfect match like a fairy couple.
"In just one year, I didn't expect that Mr. Xu is not only a husband, but is also about to become a father... Seeing him and Miss Yulian so happy, it's really enviable." Looking at the familiar two people walking away slowly together and disappearing in the mist and rain, Bai Suzhen showed a blessing smile on her face under the umbrella.
"They are indeed happier than many people." Xiaoqing smiled, but a trace of pain flashed across her eyes. "Originally, Sister Feng should also be so happy, but—"
"Qing'er." Bai Suzhen interrupted Xiaoqing. She took Xiaoqing's hand, interlocked their fingers, and said softly, "I know you still can't really get over the death of the Lotus Fairy, but the end of this life also means the beginning of the next life. Didn't the Lord of Hell say that the Lotus Fairy is in the immortal class? Even if her spirit is destroyed, if her body is still there, as long as the body is refined, the remaining soul can still be extracted for reincarnation. Maybe Miss Mu has already helped the Lotus Fairy reincarnate. If this is the case, I believe that the reincarnated Lotus Fairy would not want you to always be brooding over her death."
"But it's been more than a year, and there's still no news about Mu Yanran. How can we be sure whether she has helped Sister Feng reincarnate? What if she is reluctant to refine Sister Feng's corpse? In that case, wouldn't Sister Feng never be able to reincarnate?"
Bai Suzhen said, "Qing'er, Miss Mu is deeply in love with the Lotus Fairy. I believe she knows what is best for the Lotus Fairy." After a pause, she continued, "Qing'er, maybe one day we will meet the Lotus Fairy after her reincarnation. Let me look forward to seeing her happiness, okay?" Seeing Xiaoqing's expression gradually relieved and a smile slowly appeared on her face, Bai Suzhen knew that her long-standing knot was being untied little by little, so she calmed down and reminded her at the right time, "Okay, Qing'er, let's continue on our journey so that we can return to the Dragon Palace as soon as possible. Today is the wedding day of your second sister and Ning Xi, and we can't delay."
"Yes." Xiaoqing responded. Ever since she took her sister back to Dragon Palace to meet her father and mother a year ago, and attended the wedding of her eldest sister and Hu Meiniang, they have been traveling outside and have never returned to Dragon Palace. It was not until a few days ago that they received the news that their second sister and Ning Xi were going to get married that they rushed back. Just now, when they passed by the West Lake, they remembered that they first met their sister in Hangzhou, so they took their sister down to visit the old place again. Now they have wasted a lot of time, so they should hurry up.
"Sister, let's go."
The two figures transformed into two stunning streaks of light and flew towards the East China Sea.
When Xiaoqing and Bai Suzhen returned to the Dragon Palace, they saw that it was decorated with lights and colorful decorations everywhere. It was a festive occasion with all the guests present. Several uncles and aunts from the West Sea, North Sea and South Sea were also present. Then there were some close friends of the king and the queen. There were a lot of people, and it was really lively. It seemed that compared with the last time when the eldest sister and Mei Niang had their wedding, it was more grand and magnificent.
"Xueyan greets her father and mother. Are they in good health?" After greeting everyone, Xiaoqing pulled Bai Suzhen all the way to her father and mother. They hadn't seen each other for a year, and as a daughter, she really missed them so much.
"Suzhen greets the Dragon King and the Dragon Queen." Bai Suzhen also hurriedly greeted Xiaoqing's parents.
"Okay, okay, we shouldn't be so polite to each other." The Dragon Queen stood up and took Bai Suzhen's hand, asking her to sit down next to her. "Well, Suzhen, did Xueyan bully you? If she dared to bully you, just tell me and I, as your mother, will teach her a lesson for you."
Before Bai Suzhen could reply, Xiaoqing had already protested: "Mother, how could I possibly bully my sister?"
"That's right. I think you, a girl, are reluctant to bully Suzhen." The Dragon Queen smiled, turned her head, patted Bai Suzhen's hand, and said gently, "But Suzhen, if she really makes you angry one day, don't feel wronged. Remember, I have your back, okay?"
"Yes, Suzhen has noted it." Bai Suzhen was extremely grateful that the Dragon Queen loved her like her own daughter, and at the same time, she couldn't help but respect the Dragon Queen even more.
"Third sister, you are finally back. If you and Sister Bai don't come back, the auspicious time will pass." A smiling voice came, and Xiaoqing turned her head to see today's bride coming out of the door. Beside her were her eldest sister and Mei Niang, who were in pairs, and her fourth brother. But besides these three people, she actually saw Ning Xi, the groom. Shouldn't the bride and groom meet before the wedding? And the auspicious time is approaching, why haven't these two protagonists even changed their clothes
"Second sister, my sister and I can't delay you and Ning Xi's wedding, but you're almost getting married, why haven't you two changed into your wedding clothes?"
"I would like to exchange it, but unfortunately I can't wear the phoenix coronet and bridal robe." Ning Xi, who was dressed in brocade and had a beautiful face, closed the folding fan in her hand and said helplessly.
Xiao Qing was a little confused: "Phoenix coronet and bridal robe? Is it only my second sister's wedding, but not your wedding dress as the groom?"
Ao Qingmei rolled her eyes at Ning Xi and said, "He is not the protagonist today, so naturally he has nothing to do with it."
"Second sister, aren't you getting married to Ning Xi today?" Xiaoqing and Bai Suzhen looked at each other, both of them showing surprise and confusion in their eyes.
Ao Qingmei glanced at the two confused people, and smiled at Ao Ningshuang and others beside her.
"Father and Mother, what's going on?" Xiao Qing turned her head to look at her father and mother, only to see that they both had meaningful smiles on their faces.
"Third sister!" Finally, Ao Yufeng was impatient and couldn't help but say, "It's you and Sister Bai who are getting married today."
The author has something to say: The next chapter will be the bridal chamber, and then the end, Ou Ye - maybe tonight.
