Chapter 84 Unexpected Surprise

Inside the big conference hall of Sunset Sector, servants and martial artists were busy running around helping with chores. Many close by martial artists and wanderer martial artists came to Sunset Sector for the wedding. For most martial artists, this is an eye-opening for them, because more than eighty years ago, Sunset Sector was never open to anyone.

Inside the room, Si Meifeng slowly put on makeup on Cao Yanmei's face. She smiled and said, "I just finished with Yuan guniang. Since the last celebration of welcoming chief Xin, Sunset Sector has not celebrated anything since."

Cao Yanmei asked, "Leader Si, have you ever been married?"

Si Meifeng smiled and said, "No."

Cao Yanmei asked, "Why?"

Si Meifeng said, "I don't want to wrap ropes around my own neck." Cao Yanmei looked down at the table sadly. "What's wrong? Today is your wedding day. You should smile."

Cao Yanmei said, "It would be great if the groom is someone else. I have dreamed of this day for so long, but the groom is someone else."

Si Meifeng said, "Since the groom is not that person, then you have to accept that he is not worthy of you. Also, Yong gongzi is not bad. He is the only son of leader Yong of Sword Village, and a promising young martial artist."

Cao Yanmie said, "His late wife passed away on the day of their wedding. I am sad because I know that this man only marry me out of responsibility, and nothing more."

Si Meifeng smiled and said, "It may be due to responsibility now, but as long as you two are together, love will slowly bloom. Trust me. I've heard of it before."

Cao Yanmei said, "Really?"

Si Meifeng, "Of course... Wen qianbei's mother married into Wen's family for responsibility, but their marriage lasted longer. They stayed together until the death of Wen qianbei's father. She never remarried since."

Cao Yanmei, "What if my story is not like that of Wen qianbei's mother?"

Si Meifeng smiled and said, "Then you can to me, and I will help you beat him up. If he dares to marry another wife. I will storm into Sword Village and help you slap his new bride." Cao Yanmei laughed. "That is the face I want to see. Let's go put on your dress."

Cao Yanmei said, "Okay." She stood up, then fell on a chair.

Si Meifeng quickly grabbed her, "Cao guniang. Are you alright?"

Cao Yanmei said, "I suddenly felt dizzy when I got up."

Si Meifeng helped her to the bed and said, "You take a break first, I'll go to Yan yisheng."

Si Meifeng found Yong Caixia walking towards her. She asked, "Do you see Yan yisheng?"

Yong Caixia said, "What's the matter. Zhanjin is with da ge."

Si Meifeng said, "I don't know, Cao guniang was suddenly dizzy and her face turned pale."

Yong Caixia panic, "What?...You go back and I will go get Zhanjin."

Yong Caixia rushed toward Yong Taihua's room. When she entered the room, Yan Zhanjin was still helping Yong Taihua dress. Yong Caixia took a deep breath, "Zhanjin...Zhanjin..."

Yan Zhanjin, "What's wrong with you?"

Yong Caixia said, "Zhanjin, leader Si said, Cao guniang suddenly fainted at this moment, her face turned pale."

Yong Taihua said, "Zhanjin, you go and see her first."

When they got to Cao Yanmei's room, Yong Caixia grabbed Yong Taihua's hand. She said, "Ge, you can't see her face until after the wedding."

Yan Zhanjin said, "Taihua, don't worry, if I still stand here, I will never let her have an accident. I'll check it out and tell you."

Yong Taihua said, "Thank you."

Yan Zhanjin walked into the room and saw Cao Yanmei lying on the bed and Si Meifeng sitting on the edge of the bed. Yan Zhanjin glanced at Cao Yanmei and said, "Leader Si, if you don't mind, I want to talk to Cao Yanmei alone."

Si Meifeng said, "Sure." She walked out and closed the door.

Yong Taihua rushed to Si Meifeng and asked, "Leader Si, how is she?"

Si Meifeng said, "Yan Yisheng wants to have a private conversation with Cao guniang."

Yong Caxia said, "Is that bad for Yan yisheng to talk to her in private."

Cao Yanmei sat up on the edge of the bed and said, "I feel better now. A moment ago, I feel suddenly unwell."

Yan Zhanjin asked, "How long have you had these symptoms?"

Cao Yanmei said, "Ten days."

Yan Zhanjin quickly counted his fingers and said, "That sounds about right."

Cao Yanmie asked, "Yan da ge...tell me directly. It must be bad enough for you to ask leader Si to leave."

Yan Zhanjin said, "There is nothing wrong with you."

Cao Yanmei, "Then why do you asked leader Si to step out?"

Yan Zhanjin said, "I don't know if you want to let others know, so I ask her to leave."

Cao Yanmei said, "Tell me what's wrong with me."

Yan Zhanjin said, "You are pregnant."

Cao Yanmei was surprised, "Pregnant?"

Yan Zhanjin, "Yes... the first twelve weeks of pregnancy, it is normal for pregnant women to feel tired, dizzy or vomit."

Cao Yanmei, "Yan da ge...I don't want others to know."

Yan Zhanjin said, "Sooner or later others will eventually know."

Cao Yanmei said, "Then let it be later. I don't want people to gossip."

Yan Zhanjin smiled and said, "I understand. Tell him when you are ready."

Cao Yanmei nodded, "Thank you."

Yan Zhanjin said, "I will tell the maid to bring you a bowl of congee, it will help." He walked out of the room and went straight to Yong Taihua, Si Meifeng, and Yong Caixia. "She's fine. She's dizzy because she hasn't eaten anything yet. Caxia will you get her a bowl of plain congee. Don't add anything. Just plain."

Yong Caixia nodded and left.

Si Meifeng said, "Then I will go back and help her get dress."

Yong Taihua, "Thank You leader Si."

Yan Zhanjin grabbed Yong Taihua's right hand and wrote the word 'pregnant' in his palm.

Yong Taihua looked at Yan Zhanjin, "Really?"

Yan Zhanjin said, "She told me not to tell anyone. I wrote it, so it doesn't consider as telling."

Yong Taihua, "Zhanjin...I..."

Yan Zhanjin said, "You don't need to say any more. If my calculation is correct, then it should be right." He looked at Yong Taihua. "Taihua, she is afraid of other people's gossip, so except you and me, don't let others know until she is ready to tell everyone."

Yong Taihua, "I understand.

The two grooms and two brides walked into the main conference hall. Hundreds of martial artists stood on both sides, looking at the four young people. Soon after, they bowed to heaven and earth, elders and guests, and then bowed to each other. After the ceremony they sat having dinner with the rest of the martial artists.

Yong Taihua looked at Tang Kueng. He picked up the wine cup said, "Da ge thank you for hosting our wedding today. I toasted to you."

Rao Zhengsheng stood up and said, "Leader Yong and chief Tang, for this wedding, I want to thank you both. If you have any needs, I can help, please let me know."

Tang Keung said, "You can invite me to participate in your child's full moon celebration next year to thank me."

Everyone inside the conference hall laughed.

That night, in the bedroom, Rao Zhengsheng and Yuan Xiurong were sitting on the bed. Rao Zhengsheng said, "Xiurong, for so many years, I want to thank you for being with me." He held Yuan Xiurong in his arms. "I promised, from now on, I will take care of you."

Yuan Xuirong said, "Rao ge ge, I'm sorry. Horan's refusal to see you is my fault. The relationship between you and him has deteriorated, I think it is my fault."

Rao Zhengsheng, "Xiurong, it's not your fault, it's mine."

Yuan Xiurong smiled and said, "Rao ge ge, when you see Horan again in the future, please apologize sincerely to him."

Rao Zhengsheng, "Okay."

Cao Yanmei sat on the bed and Yong Taihua sat at the table. Cao Yanmei did not speak to Yong Taihua, nor did he speak to her. Cao Yanmei said, "If you feel uncomfortable, you can sleep with Yan ge ge."

Yong Taihua said, "It's not like that." He stood up, grabbed the chair, and walked to the bed. He put the chair in front of Cao Yanmei and sat down. "I'm thinking how to tell you."

Cao Yanmei said, "I'm listening."

Yong Taihua said, "You know about me and Chen Dandan."

Cao Yanmei said, "If you want to talk about other women on the day of my wedding, it's better if you don't talk at all."

Yong Taihua said, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have started like this. Yanmei...I know we didn't know each other before the accident, but we have a lifetime to learn and understand each others. From now on, as your husband, I will not do anything that will make you unhappy. I will love you and respect you. I hope you can give me this opportunity." He scratched his head. "Sorry, I'm not a romantic person..."

Cao Yanmei nodded, and she looked at Yong Taihua. She said, "Taihua...I'm pregnant."

Yong Taihua said, "Umm...you are tired, let's sleep. I can sleep on the floor."

Yan Chaomei said, "Don't sleep on the floor. I don't mind."

Yong Taihua slowly climbed onto the bed and pulled the quilt to cover Cao Yanmei. He turned to the left, slowly stretched out his hand, and hold Cao Yanmei. Cao Yanmei did not resist, so he kissed the back of Cao Yanmei's head and said, "Good night, my wife."
