Chapter 03: The Brother-in-Law Comes to Greet the Bride
Finally, the day has arrived. The festive sounds of drums and gongs outside the door are filled with joy. Li Shulan also feels a bit happy, although marrying a sickly guy is still better than being raped in this prison-like place.
Finally, she is free. She even wants to shout with joy a few times.
She is dressed in a red gown, which her stepmother bought for her to avoid people saying she looks unattractive while eating. Naturally, she doesn't have any dowry. She carries a few pots and an old quilt in her arms as she leaves the house.
From now on, she is part of the Wang family.
Li Shulan is brought out of the house, wearing a touch of rouge on her face as if she is wearing makeup. Thankfully, she has a good foundation, with a lively face and a hot figure. To save fabric, her stepmother made her wedding dress a bit small, tightly wrapping around her plump buttocks and perky breasts, which can surely make any young man in the village drool.
Wang Changchuan didn't expect his younger sister to be so outstanding. His sharp eyes also noticed the scar at the corner of her mouth, making him feel a hint of pity.
Since ancient times, brides in arranged marriages have always had a pitiable fate.
Li Shulan sees a tall man coming to greet her, with a handsome appearance. His strong muscles give a sense of security, and his gaze is clear without any lewdness.
This person is definitely not her husband. He shows no signs of illness and is physically strong. He should be her eldest brother-in-law, Wang Changchuan.
As the bride cannot touch the ground with her feet, Wang Changchuan carries her onto the ox cart. Her soft body is pressed against his sturdy chest, causing both of their faces to turn red, and their hearts to race uncontrollably.
The fragrance of Li Shulan wafted into Wang Changchuan's nostrils, causing his heart to skip a beat. He quickly composed himself and inwardly scolded himself, "Wang Changchuan, you mustn't have wild thoughts. This is your younger sister."
Li Shulan had never experienced being held by someone before, but she knew that the solid chest and strong arms of this person made her feel incredibly safe. She wished she could nestle in his embrace for the rest of her life, sheltered from the storms of the outside world. She understood that this was just a fantasy; he was her eldest brother-in-law, her husband's brother.
The wedding celebration was not as lively as a typical wedding. The Wang family didn't have the energy to organize a grand event. After relatives and neighbors had eaten a meal, they scattered and returned home after catching a glimpse of the bride.
Li Shulan dutifully helped clean up the mess inside and outside the house. Most of the leftover food had been taken away, leaving behind a mess of fruit peels and vegetable scraps on the floor.
After finishing the cleaning, she had to return the borrowed dishes, utensils, and furniture to their owners.
Wang's mother looked on with satisfaction at the now tidy house. This new daughter-in-law had a charming appearance and was efficient in her work, unlike those frivolous girls. She was a perfect match for her son, Wang Changchuan.
She was aware of Li Shulan's pitiful background since childhood. Wang's mother walked over and said, "Shulan, you've worked hard all day. Rest for a while."
"Mother, I... I'm not tired." Li Shulan blushed, feeling a bit embarrassed to address her as mother so soon after their first meeting.
She gestured for Wang's mother to sit down while she planned to clear the round table. However, being a woman, how could she lift it?
Wang Changchuan noticed and walked over to her, taking it from her hands. "Let me do it."
As their hands touched, they quickly pulled apart as if an electric shock had passed through them. Li Shulan stood to the side, blushing, and gently touched the spot that had been burned by the contact.
Wang Changchuan lifted the round table effortlessly, his strong arms bulging with muscles from the exertion. Li Shulan watched in awe as he returned the table as if it were nothing, just like how he had carried her earlier, walking a long distance without even breaking a sweat.
Thinking about it, that spot where he had held her seemed to be tingling again, faintly warm.
After finally finishing the clean-up, everyone in the family was exhausted. The bride had delicate skin, so Wang's mother allowed her to clean up first using the remaining water.
Li Shulan was indeed sweaty and uncomfortable, but she didn't want to make a fuss. After washing up, she couldn't help but think about her groom. No matter how weak he was, he was still her husband.
She fetched a basin of water and entered the new room. The room was usually well taken care of by Wang's mother and had no peculiar smell. Wang Yuanchuan lay quietly on the bed, his thin frame still showing remnants of his former handsome appearance.
He didn't resemble Wang Changchuan much, except for their similarly high and straight noses. Wang Changchuan had a rugged and strong appearance, while Wang Yuanchuan had a more refined and delicate look. His long eyelashes were even longer and more curled than those of a little girl, surely capable of captivating anyone when his eyes were open.
Li Shulan was just a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, who had never touched a man's hand before. Even though she was supposed to care for her own husband, she couldn't help but feel shy.
Undoing Wang Yuanchuan's clothes, the sound of delicate skin against delicate skin was not much different from her own. In fact, after months of illness, he seemed even paler than Li Shulan. After wiping his upper body clean, Li Shulan's cheeks were already emitting smoke, and she shyly removed his pants.
The man's precious part suddenly became exposed, and Li Shulan had also seen her little brother's "little bull" when he was young, but it didn't look this big and covered in hard black hair.
This area was very important, so she carefully wiped it. She held the towel and gently wiped it, even through the towel, she could feel that thing there was soft and quite elastic, nice to touch.
She couldn't help but squeeze it a few more times, just like a toy. But unexpectedly, after she squeezed it a few times, that area stood up tremblingly and became swollen.
Li Shulan quickly let go of that hot thing, this... wasn't it said that when someone is sick, they can't wake up? How could that area still stand up and act like a rascal?
Having no other thoughts, Li Shulan quickly cleaned his body and carefully cleaned the folds of his feet.
Another sweaty body, with a flushed face, felt like she had taken a bath.
She was holding a basin of water, planning to go to the yard to water the vegetables, but as soon as she opened the door, she bumped into a tall figure at the doorway. Seeing the man in front of her with his chest wet from her splashing, Li Shulan felt a bit timid, "Big brother..."
