"To the high hall,"
...…
"The couple bows to each other."
Dressed in a phoenix robe and a rosy crown, Yue Qianfu, having located Hou Yuduan's direction, bowed slightly, even though her face was hidden under the red veil, Hou Yuduan's handsome face had been deeply engraved in her mind.
Thinking that Hou Yuduan would soon become her husband, her lips were filled with an uncontrollable smile of joy.
Especially after the couple bowed to each other, the moment Hou Yuduan gently grasped her tender hands, although her ears turned red with shyness, the smile on her face was almost spilling out of her eyes.
"The bride, hurry and call out..."
"Hahaha, the bride is shy, hurry, call out quickly…"
"The high hall is still waiting for you to call out, senior sister, hurry."
"Little junior sister, the person next to you is also waiting, hurry up…"
...
The teasing voices of the guests and the sect members who had grown up with her made Yue Qianfu's cheeks even more flushed; she hesitated for a long time before her body slightly leaned forward, softly calling out.
"My lord..."
Hou Yuduan's handsome face was full of smiles, giving everyone a feeling as refreshing as a spring breeze. Despite the noisy surroundings, he heard Yue Qianfu's call clearly, bowed slightly with a fleeting complexity in his eyes, and gently helped her up, softly saying, "Be careful, madam, I will help you to offer tea to my three brothers and sister."
In fact, with Yue Qianfu's cultivation in the Gang Qi Realm, she could sense everything around her perfectly well without needing any assistance, but since it was a ritual and she was feeling somewhat nervous at the moment, she did not decline Hou Yuduan's help and followed him towards the main hall.
Usually, only the Family Head Hou Yuxiao would sit in the main hall of the Hou Clan, but today was the joyous day of Hou Yuduan and Yue Qianfu, so naturally, it was not an ordinary occasion, and the main hall was set for the wedding witness.
The main hall was divided into left and right sides, with Hou Yuxiao at the lead of the four members of the Hou Clan on the left, while Yue Wenzhu sat alone on the right.
"Yuduan, pays respect to father-in-law!"
Yue Wenzhu looked at Hou Yuduan, his expression somewhat complex. In fact, considering the prestige of the Hou Clan at this time, strictly speaking, the Famed Sword Sect was marrying above their station, and with Hou Yuduan's personal strength and reputation, his daughter should be happy to marry such an outstanding young man.
Yet the issue was, he was not just a father; he was also the Sect Master of the Famed Sword Sect. At the beginning of the month, he had just witnessed the downfall of Fengbo Hall in Yangping County and from then on, he knew that becoming related to the Hou Clan was not necessarily a good thing.
Everyone knows if two families of equal strength unite in marriage, it is an alliance of strengths, but it's different when there is a large disparity in strength…
"Father..."
The soft call from Yue Qianfu interrupted Yue Wenzhu's thoughts. He looked down at his daughter's reproachful expression on her face, realizing she was blaming him for not responding to Hou Yuduan, and he felt somewhat helpless internally.
Just out the door and already siding with her husband, truly a daughter married off...
"Get up. You must treat Fufu well from now on."
"Father-in-law, rest assured, Yuduan understands!"
After Hou Yuduan paid his respects to his father-in-law, it was Yue Qianfu's turn. Assisted by Hou Yuduan, she moved to the left side and took turns offering her respects to the four members of the Hou Yuxiao.
"Qianfu pays respects to eldest brother!"
"Get up, Qianfu."
Hou Yuxiao's voice was slightly wistful, and a complex expression briefly crossed his face.
In all fairness, he was definitely happy about Old Fifth getting married. After all, the Hou Clan was large and had tens of thousands of sect members, but strictly speaking, the core members of the clan with actual blood relations had always been just the five of them, which was not necessarily a good thing for the Hou Clan.
Their hope to grow lay in marrying and having children, and the reason his feelings were mixed was that this marriage was actually proposed by Old Fifth himself.
Of course, he had nothing against Yue Qianfu. In fact, not only did he have no objections, he quite approved of her. Long before Old Fifth proposed an alliance with the Famed Sword Sect, he had already done his investigations.
The growth of Yue Qianfu could be described with the words "smooth sailing." The Famed Sword Sect was a dominant power in Longxiang County and, being adjacent to the Tongtian River, had always been among the top forces in Hexi Three Counties. Sect Master Gentleman Qinglong Yue Wenzhu was well-regarded both for his strength and reputation.
As his only daughter who enjoyed her father's favor, Yue Qianfu's status within the Famed Sword Sect goes without saying, and there are few in Longxiang County who dared provoke her.
What's even more commendable is that, given her privileged background, Yue Qianfu was neither arrogant nor haughty, nor did she have the temper of a spoiled young lady; on the contrary, she was extremely diligent in her cultivation, reaching the Gang Qi Second Realm in her early twenties. In the Famed Sword Sect, she respected her seniors and cared for her juniors, earning a great reputation. Even among the people of Longxiang County, she did not have a bad name.
Born into privilege, yet not proud; gifted, yet so hard-working; well educated and well behaved, and with Yue Wenzhu as a father of excellent reputation, not only did Hou Yuxiao, but Hou Yucheng and three others also highly approved of Old Fifth's wife.
What truly worried Hou Yuxiao was Hou Yuduan's motive for getting married.
Hou Yuduan claimed that he considered the influence of the Famed Sword Sect, the goal of better integrating the Hexi Four Counties, his favorable impression of Yue Qianfu, and his own desire to start a family and contribute to the Hou Clan's lineage. All these reasons combined led him to propose marriage.
But Hou Yuxiao knew that the real reason was definitely not this.
