Chapter 1237 - The Traditional Wedding Begins!



Landon sat on his bed, feeling a deep surge of emotions overwhelming him.

There was no helping it. He had the buŧŧerflies… The good ones.

Bubuum. Bubuum.

He felt his heart threaten to leap out of his ċhėst and could only ma.s.sage that area with a dazed expression on his face.

So after this whole thing was over, Lucy would then move in with him?

Boom!.

This was the moment he had been looking forward to for years now.

It was true. When one really loved another, they would want them close to them all the time.

And that’s how he felt about Lucy.

They lived in the same castle Building. But because of its sheer size, each wing made it seem like they were neighbours within the same block living in different 2 or 3 story buildings.

But now, she’ll move into his s.p.a.ce.

And that’s way over the years, and he had been making various customizations to his wing.

She had a colossal closet of clothes that quite honestly couldn’t fit into his walk-in wardrobe even if he tried.

No! Even if he took out all his clothes from there, she would still need more wardrobe s.p.a.ce in that ma.s.sive Royal style walk-in closet.

That’s much she had with her.

Thus, he had long prepared for her coming and finally found the entire thing so surreal.

.

“Over there. Place the lanterns there!”

Landon stood up from his bed, walked towards the open window and peeped outside stealthily.

Well, it looked like the decorating crew still had some last-minute touches to do before the big event.

As for the traditional wedding, it would be performed in the evening, which was deemed as a time of fortune.

He had to admit.

The ancient traditional ways of Baymard were somewhat similar to his own tradition back on earth.

But as he mentioned, there were so many differences as well.

He found that they had several other rituals, processes and steps that differed greatly from his. And one shouldn’t talk about their rules.

Their rules for brides in ancient times were stricter, which he wanted to take off. But Lucy said she wanted to get it done. So who was he to ruin it for her?

Additionally, he had also added a few changes of his own too.

But one shouldn’t think that just because he proposed with the ring all those years back, he was exempt from making the traditional proposal.

That’s right.

He found a Match-maker (A.K.A, trained and showed them what to do) and sent her to Lucy.

The ancient Baymardian texts also explained the work of the matchmakers, so it was fairly easy for the Current Matchmakers to learn.

Anyway, the matchmaker took Lucy’s birth date and matched it with his to predict if the couple would have a good fate together.

Heh. For this step, Landon was secretly worried as well.

You know, a bad fate didn’t necessarily mean that they would have problems with one another. No. It could be that she might be ȧssa.s.sinated too early because of his presence, or he might suffer because of her somehow.

It only meant that their story would have a bad ending if something wasn’t done. Hey. It might be Romeo & Juliet Bad for all he knew.

But again, fate was changeable. So even if they had a bad fate together, if they could hurdle the storms that come and survive, then their fate would be so good that it would surpa.s.s others by far!

It was like marrying someone with a disadvantage in society.

No matter how you look at it, you would have to step up and fight for the marriage against the odds.

That was the meaning of it in this World, and that was that.

Luckily, it was deemed that he and Lucy had a good fate together. So he felt very relieved by it all.

After the matchmaker had done her part, they moved on to showing the bride with wealth.

That is, at this point, the matchmaker had already arranged for the groom’s family to present the bride price.

And the betrothal gifts would then be spent on later too.

Well, that state was as luxurious as could be. And Lucy being an orphan, received everything.

Traditionally, in the future, she was supposed to pa.s.s her betrothal gifts to her children to do the same thing when they wanted to propose.

If it were a girl, she would let the girl go into her husband’s home with the wealth so no man would mistreat her.

Things were done in that manner in ancient Baymard.

But that wasn’t all.

After the betrothal gifts were given, the couple had to keep their hair tied in a particular manner till the wedding day.

So it didn’t matter the occasion, Lucy and Landon’s hairstyle hadn’t changed at all when seen in public.

Again, he wasn’t supposed to take any alcohol during the waiting period because it was deemed disrespectful to the ancestors watching them from above.

People believed that from the betrothal to the actual traditional wedding, the ancestors were watching them with laser-focused eyes.

And if they were dissatisfied, the ancestors would secretly try to stop the wedding themselves.

Who knows… Maybe they would send lightning to fry one of them or cause a wagon/carriage/car accident instead.

Well, whatever the case may be, the couple would typically be on their best behaviour.

And, they also did countless other rituals that concerned bathing, what colour of clothing they wore, and so on.

More importantly, as Royals, things were more challenging for them because they were the years of the entire empire.

In short, it was actually a LOT to take in… Especially for Landon who already knew that the ancestors weren’t the higher power here

Of course, he still believed that the ancestors could make a few changes as well.

Take for example, one died unjustly and was given a chance by the heavens to make one wish.

Then what if that wish could impact things now?

Well, it was a possibility.

Thus, he still followed tradition.
