Chapter 277: Marriage (1)
August 19. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Lan Xin got up early in the morning and commanded the people in the courtyard to clean up the flower hall. Even the dust on the window lattice should not be spared, and all the dust should be wiped clean. The flowers and plants in the yard should also be taken care of, and even the leaves on the trees should be washed with water.
The golden sunlight fell on the emerald green leaves, shimmering with a fine golden light. The tables and chairs in the entire flower hall are neatly placed and wiped spotlessly. Lan Xin looked at the smooth ground and asked uneasily, "This floor tile can be washed with water?" ”
"Back to the girl, it has already been rinsed, and more than once." The woman bowed and replied respectfully.
"Hmm!" Lan Xin nodded lightly, checked it carefully, and saw that the corner was also cleaned and spotless, so he was satisfied. Raising his hand and wiping it on the railing under the porch, he nodded with satisfaction when he saw that his rounded fingers were clean and not stained with dust.
Pointing to the bamboo curtains hanging under the window, he commanded, "Roll up those bamboo curtains in half and tie them with red ruyi wraps." Look in the storeroom, and if not, ask the sewing room to stop what they are doing and start working now. ”
"Yes, girl." The little maid received the order and hurried to the needlework room.
The wishful knot was quickly tied, and the little maids looked at the tassels that were gently swaying in the breeze, and exclaimed, "Wow, it's so beautiful!" Decorate it like this, and the slave maid felt that the whole courtyard was beaming. ”
"Yes, yes! We feel the same way. The other little maidens chimed in.
Lan Xin looked back and forth, but was still not satisfied. Pointing to the pots of chrysanthemums in full bloom, he instructed: "You two take these pots of chrysanthemums away, go to the garden to find the flower mother-in-law, and let her pick a few pots of well-blooming red camellia with her own hands." ”
A few little girls took the order and moved the chrysanthemum down. It happened that Dongxiu came over with tea and fruit snacks, looked at the busy little girls, and asked in surprise: "Girl, aren't the chrysanthemums blooming very well, why did they move away?" ”
"Oh, although those pots of flowers are blooming happily, they are not showy enough, so I will ask people to change a few pots of red camellia." Lan Xin said disapprehantly, then pointed to the flower hall and asked nervously, "You came just in time, come and take a look, is there anything wrong here?" While there's still time, let them take care of it. ”
"Oh, my girl! Just sit back and rest! Even the leaves on the trees have been ordered to be cleaned here, so what's wrong with it? Dongxiu pulled Lan Xin to sit on the chair, lifted the teapot, poured a cup of tea and handed it over, and said with a smile, "This is the rock sugar eight-treasure chrysanthemum tea brewed by the slave maid according to the recipe, can you taste it, is it better than the eight-treasure chrysanthemum tea in that teahouse?" ”
Lan Xin picked up the tea and took a sip absentmindedly. The eyes are still looking around, checking to see if there is anything wrong.
"Girl." Dongxiu shouted helplessly, "It's good enough here, you don't have to worry." You wake up early in the morning to get busy, so take a break. Today is just an exchange of Geng posts to get married, and it's still early to get married! Besides, Qinghe married into a slave maid's house, there is no evil mother-in-law who grinds her daughter-in-law, and there is no rude and willful sister-in-law who makes trouble unreasonably, what else are you worried about? ”
Lan Xin raised her eyebrows and glanced at her, her face was slightly gloomy, she put down her raised eyebrows, lowered her head and continued to drink tea. When the teacup was put to his mouth, he didn't know what he remembered, and he frowned again.
Dong Xiu pursed her lips and smiled, leaned in front of Lan Xin, and said with a smile: "Girl, the slave maid thought that only my brother and father were nervous, but I really didn't expect the girl to be so nervous." Since the slave's brother knew that the girl agreed and Qinghe nodded, he was smiling stupidly all day long, and his mouth was about to grin behind his ears. The slave's father and mother were also happy, and before they began to skim the eight characters, they began to think about where the wedding banquet would be set up, how many people would be invited, and how many tables would be set up. Well, if they had come and seen the girl so serious about it, they would have fainted with joy. ”
Lan Xin glared at Dong Xiu angrily, and said angrily: "How can you talk like this." If your father and mother knew that you were arranging them behind your back, they would have deducted your dowry. Listening to Dongxiu's statement, the Xue family will be satisfied with the layout in the flower hall, and their hearts will be much more steady.
"Girl, why did you get involved with the slave?" Dongxiu's face was as red as rouge, and he pouted and said disagreeingly. When I looked up, I saw a few little girls coming over with red camellia, "The slaves went to watch them arrange the flowers." After speaking, without waiting for Lan Xin to speak, he walked out as if he were running away. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that the sorrow between her girl's eyebrows had dissipated, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. sighed in my heart: Oh, Qinghe is really happy!
After the flowers were placed, Lan Xin asked people to grab a lot of money for each of the mothers-in-law and maids who sprinkled and swept in the flower hall. And he gave them the freshly made candy on the table. Everyone was very happy and thanked Lan Xin with a smile.
"Are there any important guests coming to the house today?" A little girl carefully put the nest candy in her mouth and asked vaguely.
The other little maid shook her head and said, "I haven't heard of it." However, it seems that there must be something important today. Otherwise, the girl wouldn't have let us clean the flower hall early in the morning, and washed all the leaves in the yard. I think ・・・・・・ seen Sister Qinghe. Seeing Qinghe coming over, he quickly stopped talking and saluted.
"I've seen Sister Qinghe." The other little girls also saluted. Among them, the bold little girl smiled and said, "Sister Qinghe, you are so beautiful today." ”
Qinghe's face turned red, glared at them, waved his hand and said, "If it's okay, go play, don't make trouble." After saying that, he fled and walked towards the flower hall.
Qinghe wore a pale pink brocade gown today, embroidered with a peach-colored ruyi pattern on the neckline and placket, which just echoed her peach-colored skirt. On the peach-colored skirt, there is an auspicious cloud map outlined with gold thread. He wore a hanging bun on his head and a red gold pearl hairpin rewarded by Lan Xin. The whole person is slim and elegant, like a peach blossom in the morning dew, delicate and unparalleled, which is pitiful.
"Oh, Qinghe, is it really you? I almost don't even recognize it. Dongxiu looked at her with a smile and said exaggeratedly.
"Go, there is no one who is right." Qinghe glared at her in disgust. Dongxiu was not angry, knowing that the girl must have something to say to Qinghe, so she retired with a smile.
