The Xu Household held a grand wedding.
It was a wonderfully lively affair.
Unlike the Yang Household before them, the Wu Household had put down roots in Qingjiang County and operated there for two hundred years. Its roots ran deep and its branches flourished, and its relatives alone far outnumbered those of the Xu Household.
Xu Mingyuan led the party to fetch his bride. Xu Mingwei did not go.
He now managed all the Xu Household's affairs; all that remained was the transfer of the household head's authority.
Xu Mingshu and Xu Mingxian, however, both went along.
This time, Xu Mingshu did not ride her White Tiger. She rode a horse alongside Xu Mingxian instead.
Fetching the bride went smoothly, but somehow, a little fat boy from one of the Wu Household's in-laws latched onto Xu Mingshu.
He looked fourteen or fifteen.
Naturally, Xu Mingshu gave him a thorough thrashing.
The little fatty was furious and wanted his household servants to seize her together and take her back, but his servants were not as clueless as their young master.
She was the Xu Household's only daughter of the principal wife, the pearl in their palm.
She was showered with affection and even had a Variant White Tiger as her mount.
Who would dare provoke her?
If they laid a hand on Xu Mingshu today, neither the Wu nor the Xu Household would let them live.
Disobeying their own young master, on the other hand, would earn them a beating at most.
They could still tell which consequence weighed heavier.
"Damn you! How dare you ignore my orders? Just wait until we get back!"
The little fatty stormed off in a huff.
"Even stray cats and dogs think they can set their sights on me." Xu Mingshu smiled contemptuously.
