Chapter 800: We Didn’t Have a Wedding Like This

She watched as An You and Wei Lingxian sat together to accept the new couple’s kowtows. She didn’t even have the chance to sit side by side with An You. They were the true happy family.
When she saw the smile on Wei Lingxian’s face, a feeling of pain that was hard to put into words welled up in her heart.
Everyone was happy, Mingzhu was the sole person who had such a bitter expression on her face. That pained expression of hers completely ruined the atmosphere. When the old madame saw that Mingzhu was being like this, she had Mingzhu head back to her own courtyard. Who was she pulling this face to show?
Mingzhu felt even more wronged when she was driven away and her expression filled with even more sorrow like someone had bullied her. An You was currently drinking with people, so he didn’t notice her at all.
This liveliness had nothing to do with her. She would never be able to experience this kind of liveliness.
Ning Shu was talking with other married women with a smile. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Mingzhu’s desolate expression. Mingzhu probably understood by now that her relationship with An You hadn’t gotten people’s approval and blessings. She had just been subjectively assuming everything.
Mingzhu’s current status couldn’t even count as a mistress because she hadn’t been added to the family history. She should’ve been a noble mistress, but she didn’t complete the tea offering ritual. When the old madame saw that Mingzhu didn’t seem to care, she naturally didn’t bother to remind her about the adding her name to the family history.
That was why, falling in love was easy. It was continuing to love that was hard.
An You and Mingzhu had died in the end, which was why their love was labeled as true love.
As Ning Shu looked at An Yu, she felt a gratified feeling rise up in her heart. It was clearly happiness due to seeing her son take a good wife and form his own family.
After that loud lively day, the general’s residence finally quieted down. Mingzhu and An You lay together on the bed. Mingzhu said to An You, “An You, we didn’t have a wedding like this.”
An You hugged Mingzhu. “Once you give birth to the child, I’ll hold one for you.”
A hard to describe sense of anger and exhaustion suddenly flooded Mingzhu’s heart and she turned so that her back faced An You.
An You hugged Mingzhu and said consolingly, “Mingzhu, you’re pregnant now, so you shouldn’t worry too much. It’s not good for your health.”
Mingzhu was very angry, but she also couldn’t pinpoint why she was angry. After a while, when she turned around, she found that An You had actually fallen asleep.
An Yu got married today, so as An Yu’s father, he had to greet all the customers which was naturally a lot of work. If it was a normal day, An You definitely would’ve continued consoling Mingzhu, but since he was too tired today, he fell asleep.
However, in this moment, all the strange unhappy emotions that were accumulating in Mingzhu’s heart suddenly exploded forth and her entire body pulsed with grievances and sadness. Mingzhu couldn’t even lie to herself anymore. An You was all that she had left in this life, but she had just found out that she wasn’t all that An You had.
This made her very angry and unwilling to accept things. There was even a faint sense of regret.
“Wake up! An You, wake up!” Mingzhu started slapping An You’s face hard. An You opened his eyes and caught Mingzhu’s hand. He could feel stinging pain come from his face. Mingzhu’s nails seemed to have left scratches on his face.
“What are you doing? Mingzhu, what’s with you!?” Anger appeared on An You’s face, but anyone would be angry when they were suddenly hit.
When Mingzhu saw An You being so fierce towards her, tears immediately overflowed and she started crying. “An You, you actually yelled at me? How can you treat me this way?”
An You reached out and pulled Mingzhu into his arms as he exhaustedly comforted Mingzhu. “Are you not feeling well? Don’t cry, as soon as you cry, my heart feels like it’s breaking.”
Mingzhu leaned into An You’s chest and was enveloped by the lingering smell of medicine. She felt nauseous, but An You kept hugging her tightly. The strong scent of the medicine caused her stomach to churn violently, so she abruptly pushed An You away and leaned over the side of the bed to throw up.
