Chapter 1248: Qiqi Gets Married
November 27, it is advisable to get married.
After breakfast, Yuxi took jujube and went to Han's house with Liu'er. Originally, Lu Xiu wanted Yuxi to be a well-blessed, but Yuxi refused. A blessed person has both parents and a husband and wife who love both children and a blessed person, and she has lost her mother since she was a child and is not liked by her father, it is not appropriate to be this blessed person. Seeing that Yuxi disagreed, Lu Xiu could only ask Liu Biyuan's wife Mao to be this Quanfu person.
The Han Mansion was full of red lanterns, and some trees were also tied with colorful silk, which was full of joy.
Seeing this, Zao Zao frowned and said, "Mother, isn't it a bit too wasteful?" It's normal to hang red lanterns, but it's a bit of a waste to tie this colored silk.
Yuxi said with a smile: "This colored silk is not just used once, put it away, and you can still use it when you get married to Cousin Chang and Cousin." ”
Liu Er remembered what Qu's mother had said, and said, "Mother, I heard that big families in the capital will be very luxurious when they marry their wives and daughters. Mother, if my cousin's wedding banquet is placed in the capital, is it considered luxurious?"
Yuxi shook his head and said, "If it is placed in the capital, it can only be regarded as average." When your third aunt got married, it was called luxury, not only was the whole mansion covered with red lanterns, but the trees were also full of flowers made of rhombus yarn and colored silk. In the cold winter, the moon is stunned to decorate this mansion with flowers. ”
Zao Zao heard this and immediately said: "Mother, it has to cost a lot of money, right?"
Liu Er asked: "Mother, is the third aunt's dowry a lot?" In fact, Liu Er knew that Yuchen's marriage was ten miles of red makeup, and she specially asked, because she wanted to use Yuxi's mouth to let Zao Zao know.
Yuxi smiled and said, "Two hundred and forty-eight lifts." Antique calligraphy and painting, gold and silver utensils, and field shops, add up to two or three hundred thousand taels of silver!" The reason why I remember it so clearly is because she was still envious at that time.
Zao Zao was surprised that there were so many dowries: "Mother, what about you? Do you also have so many?"
Yuxi shook her head and said: "Your third aunt has so many dowries, firstly, her biological mother's dowry is rich, and the Han Mansion did not touch these things, all of them were given to her as a dowry; The mother's dowry is actually quite generous, but the capital is too far away from Yucheng, and the road was not very peaceful at that time, so I didn't dare to bring more things, so I only brought silk quilt covers and other things when I got married. ”
Zao Zao heard about this: "Mother, I heard Uncle Xu say that on the way to Yucheng, you were robbed by bandits, and everything was robbed by bandits. ”
Liu Er said with a big mouth: "All of them were robbed, did you even snatch the phoenix crown of the wedding dress?"
Yuxi smiled: "It's a trivial matter to meet bandits, but the most dangerous thing is that I was almost captured by the northern captives." Those northern captives hated your father so much that in order to retaliate against him, he ambushed him in the middle of the road and wanted to arrest his mother. Fortunately, I was afraid that something would happen again, so I found someone to replace me, and I followed the path that Master Yang and the others took. "It's not easy to think about back then!
Zao Zao said with a sigh: "And this one, Uncle Xu hasn't told me about it!"
Liu Er asked a little nervously, "Mother, what happened later?"
Yuxi sighed and said, "That stand-in was captured by the Northern Captives, and later killed her in front of your father." It was also because of this that she was so scared that she almost ran away from marriage. But I don't know about this except for her and Zi Jin.
Liu Er said happily: "It's good that my mother is smart." "Otherwise, there would be no more of them.
Zao Zao said with a smile: "Liu'er, this is wrong, my mother has always been very smart." The six of us sisters and brothers can be so smart, but it's all thanks to my mother. After speaking, he also deliberately added: "If it looks like a father, it will be miserable." ”
Yuxi couldn't laugh: "Your father will definitely beat you up when he hears this." ”
She's a big girl now, how can her father do something to her. Don't talk about doing it, and I won't scold anymore now. Zao Zao raised his head and said, "I'm not afraid! By the way, mother, when I get married, don't prepare so much dowry, just give three or five thousand taels of silver." ”
Yuxi smiled and said, "You will really save money for your mother." "It's also good for my daughter to pick on the door.
The craftsmen in Jiangnan have good craftsmanship, and Yuxi asked Tian Yang to buy good wood in Jiangnan and invited craftsmen to make furniture. Everything else is also being added, but I didn't tell the dates.
The three of them soon arrived at Qiqi's boudoir. At this time, Qiqi's boudoir was full of people and lively.
When they entered the house, the people inside saw Yuxi all kneeling and saluting. Yuxi smiled and said, "No need to be polite. At first, everyone knelt down and saluted her, and they were a little unaccustomed to it. But after a long time, I got used to it.
After saying this, Yuxi walked over and personally helped Qiqi up. At this time, Qiqi had already put on her makeup, but she hadn't put on her wedding dress yet.
The bride quickly took the wedding dress and gave it to Qiqi to change into.
The bright red wedding dress reflects the peach blossom-like face, and the eyes are shining with brilliant brilliance.
Yuxi looked at it and exclaimed: "My Qiqi is like a fairy, but it's cheap for Zhiao's kid." ”
Qiqi blushed and said in a mosquito-like voice: "Aunt praised it." "That look, indescribably coquettish.
Zao Zao said with a smile: "Cousin, when Feng Zhiao sees you, he will definitely not be able to turn his eyes." "Zao Zao has a good relationship with Qi Hao, and he has a lot of dealings with Feng Zhiao, and they are very familiar with each other.
Qiqi lowered his head in shame.
According to custom, the bride also has to hang a demon mirror on her chest, a child pouch on her shoulder, and a 'fixed hand silver' wrapped around her arm. These are all processes that must be followed in Yucheng to get married, and Mrs. Feng hopes to follow their rules. It doesn't matter, just follow the customs of Yucheng.
Everything was put on, and the bride took the hijab and came over. Yuxi stretched out his hand to take the hijab in his hand, turned his head and asked Qiqi: "Did you eat just now?" If you didn't eat, you have to eat something first?" Being a bride is also a very tiring thing.
Qiqi whispered, "I'm not hungry." "I got up before dawn, and I haven't drunk a sip of water, let alone eaten.
Yuxi shook his head and said, "There will be a toss later, is it okay not to eat?" After speaking, he ordered someone to bring snacks over.
It didn't take long for a maid to bring a plate of red bean cake. These pastries are the size of a finger, and they're steaming. Yuxi shook his head and said, "What's enough to eat these, let's go and make dumplings!"
Xi Niang hesitated, but thinking about her duties, she still reminded in a whisper: "Princess, eating dumplings will make up for flowers." ”
Yuxi said: "It's still early, just put on makeup again later." "It's a big deal, let Feng Zhiao wait.
After saying this, Yuxi said to Qiqi: "Eat dumplings later, don't drink soup." "Drinking soup and going to the toilet is not very easy.
Qiqi nodded slightly.
Feng Zhiao came to pick up the bride in a big red dress. entered the wedding room to see Yuxi, and Feng Zhiao hurriedly gave Yuxi a junior salute.
After Yuxi received the salute, he said with a smile: "Zhi Ao, I handed over Qiqi to you, you have to treat her well in the future, but you can't let her be wronged." ”
Feng Zhiao hurriedly said: "Don't worry, princess, I will definitely treat A-Ying well, and I will never let her suffer the slightest grievance." ”
Zao Zao said with a smile on the side: "Feng Zhiao, I warn you, if you dare to treat my cousin badly, I will definitely beat you all over the ground to find your teeth!"
Feng Zhiao didn't deal with jujube on the first day, how could he not know her temperament, and immediately said with a smile: "Don't worry, Lord Dajun, I will definitely not give you this opportunity." "He has seen Qiqi several times, and he is very satisfied with his appearance, temperament and talent. Moreover, it is too late for this daughter-in-law to marry and take care of her, where will she be willing to be wronged.
Qiqi's anxiety calmed down when he heard this.
Lu Xiu smiled and said, "Okay, the auspicious time has come, it's time to salute." "With Yuxi's statement to the big county lord, I believe that not only Feng Zhiao, but also the rest of the Feng family will also treat Qiqi well. And this is also the purpose of Han Jianming and Qiu's letting Yuxi marry.
The bride was sent out of the door, and the guests also said goodbye. Yuxi also went back with Liu'er and Zaojube.
Lu Xiu sent off the last guest, and said very melancholy: "This heart is empty. "Although Qiqi was not born to her, she also watched her grow up. In the past two years, she has taught her to be a housekeeper. Now that I am married, it is not easy to see each other again in the future.
Chun's mother understood this feeling, and thought that when her daughter got married, she couldn't help but cry when she looked at the empty yard. Relatively speaking, Lu Xiu is not bad, after all, she is just an aunt, not a mother. Mother Chun said with a smile: "Wait for the uncle to marry next year, and then give birth to a big fat grandson to the wife, this house will be lively again." ”
Lu Xiu smiled and nodded, "Yes!" It's better to have a son, if you give birth to a daughter, you have to marry someone else's family, and I'm worried that my daughter will not have a good time in her husband's family. Giving birth to a son is different, it is to add population to the family.
Mother Chun saw Lu Xiu's smile and breathed a sigh of relief: "When the uncle marries, the lady will be able to relax for two days." ”
Thinking about what Han Jianming entrusted her, Lu Xiu had a headache: "Where can I be relaxed? I have to wait for Brother Chang'er to marry, and I can really relax after I deliver everything in the mansion." "I'm really waiting for Brother Chang'er to get married, and she wants to marry Zhang Luo's second son again. In short, it's an inexhaustible heart.
After finishing speaking, Lu Xiu couldn't help muttering: "Why do you say that the good old man wants to choose a powerful, capable and capable daughter-in-law for Brother Chang?" This change is too big, and she is a little uncomfortable.
Mother Chun whispered: "Actually, with the second master's temperament, it's good to choose a capable daughter-in-law for him!"
Thinking of Brother Chang'er's temperament, Lu Xiu had nothing to say.
Back at the palace, Yuxi went directly to the front yard. Zao Zao and Liu Er went back to the backyard.
Zao Zao said: "The eldest cousin's wedding dress is so beautiful, I will wear such a wedding dress in the future." ”
Hearing this, Liu Er deliberately smiled and said, "Eldest sister, the eldest cousin's wedding dress was embroidered by herself." Eldest sister, when are you going to embroider the wedding dress?"
"Uh...... Just leave this matter to the embroidery lady in the house. "Let her embroider a wedding dress, and she must not be killed.
Liu Er said with a smile: "Eldest sister, I heard that this woman has to wear her own embroidered wedding dress when she gets married, so that she can live a harmonious and beautiful life in the future." ”
Zao Zao sneered and said: "When my mother got married, she didn't wear the wedding dress embroidered by herself, and she and her father didn't love each other? ”
Liu Er agreed with this very much, nodded and said, "What the eldest sister said is very reasonable. Still, I wanted to wear my embroidered wedding dress. Getting married is a lifelong event, and I don't want to have any regrets. ”
Zao Zao smiled and said: "You are good at embroidery, of course it is better to do it yourself, I will forget it." "I can't even embroider a handkerchief, and I still embroider a wedding dress! If I have to wait for her to embroider a wedding dress, I guess I won't have to marry in this life."
Liu Er thought for a moment and asked, "Eldest sister, just now you said that you asked your mother to prepare a dowry of four or five thousand taels of silver?" What is the use of four or five thousand taels of silver, and the expenses of the palace for a month are more than this amount.
Zao Zao hummed and said: "I have saved some money myself, and I have Yulu, and Jin Yu will also be able to get a share of the family business from the Wu family in the future." It's so difficult at home, but if you can save it, you can save it. ”
When Liu Er heard this, her face was entangled.
As soon as Yuxi returned to the front yard, Xu Wu reported something to her: "Princess, I received General Liu's fold two quarters of an hour ago, and it is now on the desk. "Since he is no longer in charge of the intelligence network, his information is not as well-informed as before. However, after following Yuxi for so long, he vaguely guessed that Yuxi must have explained something important to Liu Tienan. If it was just a homeless person outside Linzhou City, it would be impossible to communicate so frequently.
Yuxi opened the fold, and there was a letter mixed in the fold. This letter was written by Ye Jiuyun.
Looking at the excerpts and letters, Yuxi fell into deep thought. Ye Jiuyun arrived in Jinzhou more than 20 days ago, and this time he mainly talked about the situation in Jinzhou in his letter, and he explained it in great detail.
Seeing this, Xu Wu retreated. As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw Yun Qing wearing a royal blue robe.
Yunqing asked, "Is the princess inside?" Qiqi got married, Brother Hao went with the triplets, but Yunqing didn't go.
Xu Wu nodded and said, "Lord Wang, the princess's face was very solemn after seeing the excerpt sent by General Liu. ”
Yunqing knew what was going on as soon as he heard it, and when he walked into the room, he saw Yuxi holding a letter and thinking about something. He didn't interrupt Yuxi's train of thought, just stood aside and waited.
When Yuxi woke up and saw Yun Qing, she asked, "When did you come back?" Yun Qing went to the military camp outside the city, and she thought that she would not be able to come back until the afternoon.
Yunqing smiled and said, "I came back for a while, and I didn't call you when I saw you thinking about things." Did Liu Yongnan mention anything difficult to you?"
Yuxi shook his head, handed Ye Jiuyun's letter to Yunqing, and said, "There was a riot in Jinju last month, but it was quickly suppressed by officers and soldiers. ”
This was expected by Yunqing: "I said before that it is easy to cause a riot, but it is difficult to form a large scale. "Zhou Fei has more than 300,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, and he can easily quell the riots caused by a few ordinary people.
Yuxi disagreed with Yunqing's statement: "Herui, the water is easy to carry the boat, and the boat can also be overturned." If the support of the people is lost, even if the army is strong, it will only be a long time to survive. ”
Yun Qing said with a smile: "Not only that, the soldiers in the army are all civilian children, and they are actually unwilling to let them go to quell the rebellion. ”
Yuxi said: "Herui, have you picked a candidate? "No matter how strong the imperial court is to quell the rebellion, the people will still rebel if they can't survive. Because there may be a way to survive in the rebellion, otherwise there is only one way to die.
Yunqing nodded and said, "It's picked, but the person is still in Yucheng, and it will take another two or three days to arrive." Yuxi, do you want to meet him?"
Yuxi shook his head and said, "You deal with this matter, I won't interfere." "She doesn't know much about war, and she doesn't have much to say when she sees it, so why waste this time!
