CHAPTER 1517: CHAPTER 1524: FEI’ER’S GRAND WEDDING (2)

What she was referring to was the matrimonial matters between Fei’er and Mo Ziqi after their grand wedding.

Fei’er was only twelve years old, still a child. Although she had received better nutrition over the past year, and Cai Wei had been providing space-grown food to her family all year round, leading her to develop well and look like a girl of fourteen or fifteen, a child is still a child. Her body had yet to develop fully, and her first menstruation hadn’t come. If Mo Ziqi couldn’t contain himself one moment and did that thing to her, it would surely cause harm to Fei’er’s body.

Therefore, one day when Empress Dowager Mo was not around, she sent away the servants, and with much hesitation, conveyed her thoughts to Old Madame. In essence, she hoped that Old Madame could speak to Mo Ziqi, suggesting they wait until Fei’er reached the age of fourteen or fifteen to perform the conjugal rite.

Old Madame was a kind-hearted person. Even if Cai Wei did not discuss these concerns with her, she would have explained the situation to her grandson herself.

The physique of a girl’s family is precious, just like that of a delicate flower. If one were to forcefully harvest it before it bloomed, it might cause the flower to wilt. Thus, when Cai Wei brought up the matter, Old Madame readily agreed and laughed and said: "Empress Dowager, rest assured, once Fei’er is married over, I will raise her as my granddaughter for a few years. Once she is older, I will let them consummate the marriage."

With Old Madame’s assurance, Cai Wei was finally able to relax. She deliberately picked out a few pieces of good-looking jewelry to send over and also sent two old palace maids to Fei’er’s parents’ house to teach her court etiquette and rules.

Because after Fei’er’s marriage, her identity would be different from before. Not only would she be the granddaughter-in-law of Duke Li Guo’s Mansion, but she would also be the wife of the Second-ranked Protecting the Nation Great General and soon to be a Noble Lady bestowed by the imperial court. Therefore, to prevent her from feeling at a loss when interacting with the Noble Ladies of various mansions in the future and to avoid being looked down upon, Cai Wei went to great lengths to send these old palace maids to teach her the rules.

Logically, Cai Wei should have also sent two more old palace maids specializing in nurturing a girl’s physique to make Fei’er look radiant and lovable. However, Cai Wei did not wish for Fei’er to perform the conjugal rite with Mo Ziqi too soon. Hence, she spared sending those maids to avoid making Fei’er too irresistibly beautiful, worrying it might render Mo Ziqi unable to restrain himself...

Time flew swiftly, and in a blink of an eye, the day of the Shangsi Festival, which was also Fei’er’s grand wedding day, arrived.

Before dawn broke, Fei’er was already up. Under Liuzhu’s care, she cleaned her teeth with toothpaste made from green salt, Gancao and Yangmei, and washed her face. Just then, there was a sound at the door. Liuzhu turned around and saw that it was the servant coming to help the Miss dress and make up. She chirped, "Come in, Second Miss is up."

Colored glaze followed by Yuan Chun, Tan Chun, and others each carried clothes, head crowns, and trinkets. There were maids sent by Yunmo family and a few old palace maids sent by Cai Wei this morning to help. After entering, they placed the items in their hands on the small pearwood table in the middle of the boudoir.

The leading old palace maid from the palace appeared to be around forty, with a clean appearance and dignified air, evidently a servant of no low status. Her gaze fell upon Fei’er, who had just gotten up, only wearing a magnolia-colored Mianchao robe, her cheeks faintly blushing with delicate beauty, resembling an emergent water-lily. She bore a nine parts similarity to Empress Dowager’s look, yet was slightly more tender than the Empress Dowager.

Moreover, this Second Miss was a shy maiden, not as composed and serene as the Empress, with an air of calm and tranquility. The Second Miss had a shy demeanor, a hint of pink on her face, and black hair cascading down like a waterfall, unrestrained beyond her hips. Even from a distance, one could smell a waft of natural body fragrance. Although she had not yet applied makeup or dressed up, she already had the makings of a peerless beauty.

A few old palace maids stepped forward with a bow: "The servants pay their respects to Second Miss, extend our congratulations on your joyous wedding, and wish Second Miss and the Great General a century of perfect harmony and a marriage as evenly matched as a pair of chopsticks!"
