After the newlyweds entered the bridal chamber, there was a flurry of activity. The matchmaker surrounded the couple with a stream of auspicious words, and then it was time for the groom to lift the red veil.
Meng Liangdong, holding the weighing pole tied with a red string, was so excited his hands trembled slightly.
Underneath the veil, Mo Sanniang was even more nervous. At that moment, she actually worried whether her heavily applied makeup would frighten this foolish fellow.
"Lift the veil!" the matchmaker sang out, snapping the two out of their thoughts.
Meng Liangdong pursed his lips and lifted the somewhat shaky red veil with his hand. Beneath the veil, a radiant face was revealed. Meng Liangdong's eyes lit up, and as the shy person underneath lifted her head, his emotions were stirred for a long time.
When Mo Sanniang lifted her head, she met Meng Liangdong's amazed and happy gaze, felt a surge of joy, and couldn't help but curl her lips into a smile.
