The snow-white clothes, the charming makeup, the graceful posture... The three girls, with the support of their respective parents, slowly moved to Qingdeng's side.

From the moment the three women appeared on the stage, Qing Deng seemed to have lost his soul. His eyes were straight and unblinking, and his eyes were firmly fixed on the figures of the three women.

Boss Kiryu on the side saw this and asked half-jokingly:

"Tachibana-kun, what's wrong? Are you dazzled?"

Boss Kiryu's words brought Qingto back to his senses.

He curled up the corners of his mouth and took several deep breaths to calm down his emotions slightly, especially the heart that was beating so hard in his chest that it seemed as if it was about to pop out of his throat.

"Well, you're right."

"When I saw them, I was so dazzled by the unprecedented stunning beauty that I almost fainted."

As soon as he finished speaking, Sanako, who was standing next to him, said angrily:

"Really... don't say such disgusting things..."

Although she said this, her tone was faintly joyful, the corners of her lips were slightly raised, and there was a shy look on her cheeks.

Kinoshita Mai and Souji also looked the same, with shy looks on their faces.

Dressed in pure white, their hair was tied up, and they wore broad white cotton hats... The outfit the three girls were wearing was exactly the bride's wedding dress - Bai Wugu.

In ancient Japan, white symbolized the color of the sun and was considered a sacred color. It was often used in priests' clothing and later evolved into brides' dresses.

Shirakumo - a kimono that is completely white from the inside to the outside. The robe, under the robe, belt, socks and even the small items worn are all white.

White without dirt means clean and dirt-free. It also means that it can be dyed into various colors after entering the husband's house, making it easy to blend into the husband's family.

"A man relies on his clothes and a horse relies on his saddle" - this old saying passed down from generation to generation is really not a lie.

After changing into Bai Wuju, perhaps due to the style of clothing, or perhaps due to the influence of the color, the temperaments of the three women have all undergone significant changes - they have become elegant and gentle.

There is a softness like the spring breeze in every gesture.

Even Souji, who usually laughs and laughs and has nothing to do with the word "elegance", now became very elegant and feminine.

Out of personal preference, Qingden particularly likes elegant and luxurious clothing such as Bai Wugua and large furisode.

And the flawless white like snow happens to be one of Qingdeng’s favorite colors.

In other words, the current outfits of the three girls perfectly hit Qingdeng’s X fetish!

Therefore, what he just said about being "dazzled and almost unconscious" was not a complete joke.

Until now, the heart in his chest was still beating hard like a war drum, and the blood in his body was accelerating and could not settle down for a long time.

Under the arrangement and coordination of the witches, everyone got into position and prepared to enter the shrine.

At this moment, Qingdeng seemed to have made up his mind. He turned his head and looked directly at the three women.

The three women noticed his gaze for the first time and invariably turned their heads to look at him.

Looking at the three beautiful faces in front of him, Qingdeng showed an extremely serious expression and said word by word:

"Sanako, Awu, Xiaosi, you look beautiful today!"

For women, Bai Wugu is an important garment that is worn only once in a lifetime.

Qingdeng had no way of knowing how the three women were feeling now.

But he guessed: It was the first and last time to put on this holy garment that symbolized happiness. While they were nervous, they must also be excited and looking forward to it.

As their husband, if you don’t say something at this time, it would be really unreasonable!

In this way, Qingdeng kept saying this sentence "You are beautiful" in one breath.

After he finished speaking, he suddenly felt relieved.

His sudden compliment made the three women stunned for a moment, as if they were stunned, and each of them turned into clay and wood sculptures.

About 5 seconds later, the surprise finally turned into a voice:

Zuo: "Stupid, idiot! Why are you saying such disgusting things again...!"

Wu: "Hmm...! Thank you, thank you..."

Si: "Hey, hehe~ Mr. Ju, if you like the way I dress, I can wear more clothes for you to see in private in the future~~"

Although the three women spoke different words, the changes in their expressions were extremely similar - their faces were visibly hot, and their eyes became chaotic and blurred due to intense shame.

The shyest Mai Kinoshita reacted the most violently - vaguely translucent steam floated out from his head, penetrated the white cotton hat, floated into the air, and lingered for a long time.

It's no wonder they reacted like this.

After all...this place is "lively" now.

Aoshito's relatives and friends (Kyuubei, Shinsengumi generals), their relatives and friends...there were nearly a hundred people in total, and they were all standing behind them, preparing to enter the shrine with them later.

In other words - Qingdeng just said something that they considered very shameful in front of nearly a hundred people!

Anyone who has had similar experiences must understand this feeling.

The same embarrassing scene may not be noticeable if it is shown in front of strangers.

But if you show it in front of acquaintances, especially family members, you will feel particularly ashamed!

The three girls have been deeply influenced by Confucian culture (Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism) since they can remember.

Therefore, they are accustomed to elegance and reserve.

They are really not used to this bold behavior of "saying you are beautiful in public".

When they thought that the series of interactions they had just had with Qingdeng were witnessed by their relatives and friends behind them, they instantly felt hot all over!

Even the jade feet wrapped in white socks unconsciously tightened their grip, and the cute silkworm-like toes clasped the flat clogs hard.

In fact, it was exactly as they expected - all the relatives and friends behind them showed playful reactions at the moment.

Or they pursed their lips; or looked away; or they covered their mouths with their hands, smothering laughter in their palms... In short, they were all trying their best to suppress laughter.

Of course, shyness is shyness.

Although Qingdeng's unexpected compliment caught them off guard, leaving them at a loss and blushing.

But apart from the shame, other emotions gradually appeared on their pretty faces.

While Sanako muttered "Really...", he raised his hands involuntarily, straightened the clothes on his chest and the white cotton hat on his head, and smoothed out every wrinkle, as if he was trying his best to protect the beauty in Qingdeng's mouth.

image.

At the same time, she quietly raised her gaze and glanced at Qingdeng.

When Qingdeng's majestic figure filled her eyes, her face turned redder...corrected. Pinker.

Coincidentally, as if they had agreed in advance, Kinoshita Mai and Souji did the same thing - while adjusting their clothes, they peeked at Aomori, their cheeks turning red and their expressions strange.

Their coy looks seemed to be saying to Qingdeng: "Well... why don't you praise me a little more...?"

…

…

Compared with weddings in front of people, weddings in front of gods are undoubtedly more complicated and time-consuming.

The process of the former is very simple - gather relatives and friends, read the wedding vows in public, then have a meal together, and it's done.

If you find it too troublesome, you don't even need to read the oath, just call your relatives and friends together and let them see who your husband/wife is and what she looks like, and then you can enjoy the meal happily.

On the other hand, the process and links of the latter are ridiculously numerous.

The first is "participation".

This is the first ceremony of a divine wedding.

Musicians were at the front playing elegant music.

The groom, the bride, and their relatives and friends marched toward the temple together.

In this way, the "participation" begins.

This is not just a movement of places, it requires people to calm down and achieve a calm state of mind consistent with the ritual.

Because you are entering a sacred place where gods live, you cannot speak, let alone look around. You must concentrate and march toward the temple meticulously.

Now, Qingdeng and others are going through this stage.

With the bride and groom at the head of the team, the groom's relatives and friends stand behind the groom, and the bride's relatives and friends stand behind the bride. Everyone takes their places and lines up in two columns.

Since there were three brides and the groom had surprisingly few relatives and friends, the size of the two queues showed an overwhelming difference.

Qingdeng has neither parents nor any close relatives, and the whole family has a sense of dilapidation that "the family may be cut off at any time."

Fortunately, the three friends of his late father, Takayuki Tachibana - Hideyuki Arima, Hanjirō Inotani, and Masaji Ushiyama - after receiving Aoto's invitation, they all put down their work and rushed to Kyoto to attend the banquet as scheduled.

.

Thanks to their appearance, the "groom's queue" behind Qingdeng was greatly enriched.

Because there is really a lack of elders, Aomori can only drag boss Kiryu to fill the scene.

There is a saying that "one day is a teacher, and all one's life is a father."
