Chapter 56
On the sixteenth day, it was still dark, and Hongzhu was woken up by the sound outside, and in a daze, she felt that Li, who was sleeping next to her, moved slightly, as if she was getting up, Hongzhu couldn't help asking: "Mother?"
Li Shi paused for his dressing movements, and said softly: "...... Sleep a little longer, and I'll call you back to you. ”
These words were almost inaudible, and Hongzhu didn't understand what she said when she was half-asleep and half-awake, so she only opened her eyes and quickly closed them again. In the dim sense, she seemed to hear the faint sound of Li washing up and boiling water in the kitchen, and Hongzhu felt that she had only slept for a short time, but when she suddenly woke up, the sky was much brighter outside the window.
Hongzhu rubbed her eyes and was stunned, turned her head to see the new clothes that Mrs. Zhu asked the Li family to make for her, and then remembered that she had to be busy with Zhu Biyun's family affairs today, and couldn't help laughing.
She got up from the bed, washed up quickly, and went out in some energy. When I went out to take a look, I found that all parts of the courtyard of the Zhu family had already pasted a big red paper cutout, and there was a dazzling red silk hanging in front of Zhu Biyun's room.
As soon as Hongzhu turned around and walked into the kitchen, Li was sitting in front of the stove and burning the fire, and she shouted, "Mother." Seeing that Li's sideburns were scattered, and his face was red from the fire, he couldn't help but complain: "Mother, how early did you get up? There was so much firewood yesterday, how much water did you boil......
Li Shi turned around and smiled at her, and only said, "Don't you know, this bride has a lot of rules when she goes out, and she has to get up in the middle of the night to wash." He said, "You go to Biyun's room to accompany her." ”
Hongzhu looked into the kitchen, and was about to say something, when Li Shi said first: "Okay, I have me in the kitchen." There are no guests today, and those big dishes are ready, so you can go in with peace of mind. ”
Hongzhu thought that this was also the case, so she nodded happily and went to Zhu Biyun's room. In addition to the Zhu family sisters in the house, there were Jiang and Zhu Yanmei, and even Zhu Sanbao actually got up early and was happily bouncing around the bedside, Zhu Zilan frowned and asked him to be quiet.
When Hongzhu entered, Zhu Biyun was still wearing her hair and wearing the new silver-red clothes, and Hongzhu felt that the color was not much different from the red. As soon as her heart moved, she couldn't help but smile on her face.
It was about a happy day, Jiang Shi turned around and smiled at her when he saw Hongzhu coming in, and said softly: "Hongzhu is here, come and see your Sister Biyun." ”
Zhu Yanmei is dressed up very well today, with two delicate golden hairpins obliquely stuck on her head, "Your little sisters should talk well, when Biyun goes out, then she will become someone else's family, and it will be difficult to get together like this......" Saying this, she wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief in her hand, looking a little sad.
Jiang Shi was also a little touched when he saw it, pursed his lips and didn't speak, just looked straight at Zhu Biyun.
Hongzhu walked to the edge of the bed and sat on Zhu Biyun's side, turned her face to look at her, and laughed softly: "Sister Biyun is really good-looking today." ”
"The eldest sister is good-looking, the eldest sister is the best-looking!" At this time, Zhu Sanbao, who had been walking restlessly by the bedside, looked at Zhu Biyun with wide eyes, praised Zhu Biyun, and then shouted curiously: "Why does the eldest sister want to go out?"
Hongzhu touched his head and replied with a smile: "The eldest sister is getting married." ”
Zhu Sanbao tilted his head and thought for a while, but he didn't know what reason he came up with, so he said, "I don't want my eldest sister to marry!"
Zhu Sanbao naturally can't understand the meaning of getting married, but he is very clever, this time the Zhu family has been tossing around for Zhu Biyun's affairs, and he has more or less said a lot in front of Zhu Sanbao, no one avoids him, Zhu Sanbao also faintly knows that Zhu Biyun doesn't live at home when he gets married, not his own family......
Zhu Sanbao stretched out his little fat hand and grabbed Zhu Biyun's dress tightly, shouting, "I don't want my eldest sister to go!" As soon as he finished shouting this, he burst into tears, and the big tears rolled down from his eyes, his little face was flushed, and he looked extremely pitiful.
Seeing him crying, Zhu Biyun was anxious to hug him to coax, Hongzhu quickly stopped him, and only said: "I'm coming, you're wearing a wedding dress......" Saying that, Hongzhu hugged Sanbao, "What are you crying Little flower-faced cat......" Hongzhu couldn't cry or laugh in her heart, why did she provoke this little ancestor with this sentence, isn't this a scourge to her.
"I ...... I don't want you, I want the eldest sister! The eldest sister ......" Zhu Sanbao whined, and reached for Zhu Biyun again. Hongzhu saw that Jiang Shi was already frowning and walking here, so she quickly hugged Zhu Sanbao and stood up from the side of the bed, patted his little buttocks, and then she looked at his eyes and said, "Why don't you want me?"
Zhu Sanbao glared at her, sobbing and choking, "...... I, I want my eldest sister, eldest sister, don't go out......"
"No, the eldest sister's marriage is a happy event, a big happy event, and it is as happy as the New Year. Don't you like the Chinese New Year?" and asked, "Do you think the big sister is dressed well?"
Zhu Sanbao listened to these questions and only nodded obediently, "I like the New Year." He turned his head and stared at Zhu Biyun for a while, "It's good-looking." ”
Hongzhu smiled and said, "Well, the eldest sister also likes to celebrate the New Year and likes to wear beautiful clothes." ”
Zhu Sanbao didn't understand her words very well, but when she heard it like this, she was surrounded by her, and she only felt that this marriage was a good thing like the New Year, and it seemed to be a good thing to be able to eat delicious food and wear good clothes...... He was confused, touched his face and stopped crying, "Will that sister come back?"
“…… Of course, the Three Treasures are still there, and she will come back as soon as she thinks about them, so where is she willing to let the Three Treasures be here?" Hongzhu said with a grin.
Zhu Sanbao agreed with this very much, and immediately nodded.
Hongzhu coaxed people, and then turned around to look at others, but found that Jiang Shi didn't look here, Hongzhu was strange, seeing Jiang Shi tilting his head and holding a handkerchief, he seemed to cry. Hongzhu thought about it and guessed that it was about Fang Cai, and her words of coaxing Zhu Sanbao made Jiang feel sad. Looking at it again, even Zhu Biyun and Zhu Zilan, who were sitting on the bed, were in tears.
Seeing such a situation, Hongzhu didn't dare to hug Zhu Sanbao again, so she talked to him indiscriminately to divert his attention.
After a while, Jiang Shi calmed down and spoke: "Okay, I'll see that people should come in a while, Biyun will clean up again." ”
Zhu Yanmei also smiled: "Isn't it, I'm so happy." ”
After talking for a while, someone called the door at the back door, and the Jiang family went out to welcome people in, but the first one was the ancient lady. Hongzhu realized that the Zhu family had called Aunt Gu to be the Quanfu person. They follow the rules here, on the day of the girl's wedding, she should find a daughter-in-law with in-laws and parents, and a son and daughter to be a blessed person to comb the bride's hair. Originally, the Jiang family also had a few sisters-in-law who could, but don't say that they invite someone to be a Quanfu person, and even the Jiang family did not go in vain to open that mouth.
Although Zhu Biyun's family affair is a little unsightly, the Jiang family didn't want to wronged their daughter with such a rule, so they seriously invited Aunt Gu to come. The south of their city is not big or small, even the Quanfu people in the alleys on the left and near the red beads know a few, but in terms of closeness and kindness, it is still the best Aunt Gu.
In addition to Aunt Gu, there was also a Xi Po who specialized in opening her face, followed by a little girl brought by Xi Po. As soon as the three of them came in, they smiled and said a word of congratulations, and then they began to get busy. Hongzhu saw that the Xi woman was carrying a wooden suitcase, and the little girl stepped forward to open it with a smile, and there were some tools that Hongzhu didn't know, so they were all delicate gadgets with red silk. They put on a posture and asked to bring hot water from the kitchen, and it seemed that they were going to be busy for a while.
Hongzhu glanced twice, and saw that the room was small, and it was really inconvenient for her to take Sanbao with her, so she coaxed him out and took him to play in the yard.
After a while, Zhu Zilan also hurriedly came out of the house with her face covered, bumped into Hongzhu and Sanbao without saying a word, turned around and entered the hall to cover the door.
Zhu Sanbao was playing with those snow residues on the ground, and Hongzhu hurried to stop him, and he didn't care about what happened to Zhu Zilan. Seeing that the time was not early, Hongzhu went to the room to wake up Cheng Wenhan, asked him to look at Zhu Sanbao, and went to the kitchen to help the Li family.
The old house of the Zhao family is not in the city, but more than ten miles to the east of the city, and it occupies the eldest place according to the terrain. This Zhao Xun is the descendant of the Zhao family's house, and now Mr. Yishan is still there, and they are not separated from this house, so the third master Xun marries the second room and carries people to the old house.
The Zhu family is also some distance away from the Zhao family's old house, so the two families set a time early, and they have to leave before noon. As soon as the newlyweds leave, the banquet at the mother's house will have to be served. Hongzhu was cutting ginger and shallots in the kitchen, and she heard that Sister Zhou was here again, and she was smiling very happily before she entered the door, and even Hongzhu could hear her praise Zhu Biyun for her good makeup and beauty......
The other end of the west chamber became more and more lively, and after a while, Zhu Yanmei hurriedly came over to urge, only to say that the Zhao family was on the way, and they were about to enter the door immediately. Li Shi and Hongzhu hurriedly tidied up and followed outside.
After a while, there were a few joyous sounds outside, although they were not loud and continuous, but they still had some momentum.
In this way, compared to ordinary people who were carried away silently, Zhu Biyun also had some scenery this time. Hongzhu sighed, in the end, it was the Zhao family.
