"Everyone gets married and has children, right? Maybe your Teacher just hasn't met the right person. Go ask around, I, Old Woman Wang, am a famous matchmaker within ten miles and eight villages, I can definitely help your Teacher find a suitable match!"
"By the way, what does your Teacher look like? The ceremony is about to begin, he's the officiant, right?"
"I heard the Teacher of Heart of Fire Academy is still very young, truly excellent, to be able to cultivate so many beautiful young girls."
The girls of the Academy also experienced the fear of ordinary folk elders pressuring them to marry for the first time.
Regarding the remarks of these aunts and grandmothers, they could only smile helplessly and dared not argue, lest they spoil Senior Brother Bell's joyous occasion.
However, you aunts, do you think we don't want to get married?!
We dare to marry, but does Teacher dare to marry?!
...
As dusk gradually fell, the wedding procession outside the school gate entered the Academy joyfully amidst the sound of gongs and drums.
On the stage amidst the maple trees, the melodious harmony of Dragon and Phoenix began to sound. Tang Yuehua's graceful figure danced and played music among the maple leaves, exuding elegance and beauty, truly worthy of being a royal musician.
The bride was slender, wearing a red veil, beneath which was a delicate face, but her blush and red lips, combined with the lighting, made her appear radiant today.
Bell was dressed in a Han-style groom's attire. A large, red brocade ribbon, adorned with flying dragons and dancing Phoenixes, was held between him and the bride, leading the bride through the school gate, over a brazier, and to the front of the Red Maple Schoolhouse. He first bowed to both sets of parents, then slightly cupped his hands to his Senior Brothers and Junior Sisters, and the onlookers:
"Everyone, this is my first marriage. Please bear with any shortcomings in the arrangements."
"Hey? Senior Brother Bell, how many times do you plan to get married?" Xiao Chenyu grabbed a handful of melon seeds nearby, cracking them while teasing with a grin.
Bell's face was flushed with joy, and he couldn't help but smile foolishly, "Just once, just this one time is enough."
"The auspicious moment has arrived, Teacher should be coming out soon, right?"
"Teacher is the officiant!"
"He's here! Teacher is out! Wow!"
Bell led the bride to stand facing each other in front of the schoolhouse. It was at this moment that a young man finally walked out from inside the schoolhouse.
The young man wore a large red robe with cherry patterns, exuding an air of unparalleled detachment. His appearance, illuminated by the festive red light, seemed incredibly charming.
Upon his appearance, he drew exclamations from everyone at the wedding:
"Oh! Oh oh oh!"
"Is that the Teacher of Heart of Fire Academy?"
"This... this, this is too handsome, I'm in love again~" an attractive middle-aged woman said, blushing.
Even the parents of both the bride and groom, upon truly seeing the true face of this Teacher Xin, who was like a divine Dragon seen only by its tail, exchanged glances, never expecting their son's Teacher to be so young and handsome.
Seemingly hearing the cheers and exclamations around her, the bride's vision was obscured by the red veil, only vaguely seeing a remarkable figure in front of her. She couldn't help but tug on the red brocade ribbon connecting her to Bell and softly asked:
"Brother Bell, is your Teacher really that good-looking?"
