Chapter 440: Before Marriage
Since entering May, the affairs of the Dingbei Hou Mansion have been more and more like a day, and there is an endless stream of people coming to the door to add makeup, which only makes the Qiu family happy to close their mouths.
At this time, she suddenly became clear-headed, and she was not arrogant, and understood that the ability of her husband and wife and children was not enough to make so many high-ranking ladies and daughters come to the door to add makeup.
People are looking at the face of the Dingbei Hou Mansion, and they are looking at the face of Princess Ning in the future.
The Dugu clansmen who were far away in Dugu Mountain also sent people to come, and Dugu Shaoxiang, who actually took the responsibility of the patriarch, and his wife Seventh Aunt took several clansmen to live in, preparing to live until the end of June, and send Dugu Weiwei to get married before leaving.
This made the Qiu family proud for a while, if she hadn't insisted on arranging Dugu Weining's wedding date similar to Dugu Weiwei, these snob-eyed people would not have made a special trip!
What satisfied the Qiu family was more than that, Dugu Weining's dowry mansion was very richly prepared, and the Qiu family compared Dugu Weiwei's dowry, and found that in addition to some specific objects regulated by the princess and Shen's dowry subsidy daughter that year, the rest was almost Dugu Wei's only something, and Dugu Weining also had something.
While Qiu Shi was satisfied, he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, ashamed of his former villain's heart.
How busy should the house be, Dugu Wei doesn't care, he still goes to the government every day, as if he has nothing to do.
It's just that recently, because the wedding date is approaching, the old people didn't let her meet Xiao Ke, saying that it was unlucky to meet before marriage.
Dugu Wei didn't believe this, but Xiao Ke didn't care about it before, and he really didn't see her anymore.
How did she know that Xiao Ke was looking forward to the stars and the moon and finally looking forward to the imminent completion of his cultivation, and he was afraid that a little unpleasant thing would happen, so he would rather believe in it than believe in it, so he couldn't bear to see her.
Dugu Wei only woke up in the middle of the night, and suddenly saw Xiao Ke in particular, remembering that he once went to Xiao Ke's house in a night suit in the middle of the night, on a whim, he got up in the middle of the night to rummage through the night clothes, and only woke up the girl on duty at night, so he sighed and stopped.
wrote a letter to Xiao Ke overnight by the light, sprinkling several pages to tell his feelings, and asked Li Jing to send it to Xiao Ke the next day.
It wasn't until noon that Li Jing came back from the camp on the outskirts of the city and brought back Xiao Ke's reply, with only one line on the paper: Wei Wei, don't challenge my self-control.
Dugu Weiwei snickered, as if he had found a novel toy, he was going to give Xiao Ke such an affectionate letter every three or five days, and Xiao Ke replied the second time: The wedding night will be returned with interest! After that, he didn't reply to her letters.
On May 28, Dugu Weiwei began to take leave one day in advance, and on this day Dugu Weining got married.
Dugu Weiwei watched Xi Niang put on Dugu Weining's makeup, the white powder on his face was pasted layer after layer, and he didn't want money as if he had to paint a good face like a ghost, and couldn't help but say: "Spread less powder, it's all falling." ”
Xi Niang smiled and didn't open her mouth, Qiu Shi already smiled and said: "Wei Wei, you don't understand this, the bride has to be festive like this, and then put on rouge and paint a smile, then it is called good-looking." Don't dislike it, you'll be like this when the time comes, oh, it's different, I'm afraid it's more than this powder!"
Dugu Weiwei shuddered, this is the rhythm of blocking all the pores, how uncomfortable it will be if the skin is not breathable!
She was thinking about whether to bribe the bride who put on makeup for her that day, Shen Ling chirped in her ear: "The bride's makeup is like this, and the sister-in-law married with such makeup, I didn't even see the sister-in-law's appearance that day!" And big ......"
Shen Ling's words came to an abrupt end, and Dugu Weiwei knew that she was thinking of Shen Ying. On the day of people's great joy, she shouldn't have mentioned a dead person, so she stopped talking.
For a while, the expression on Shen Ling's face was extremely awkward, and the original happiness was clouded with a layer of embarrassment, as well as a trace of sadness. Dugu Weiwei shook her hand and diverted the topic with a smile: "All brides wear such makeup, you say, if the two brides meet outside, will the groom recognize his own lady?" ”
Shen Lingqiang smiled to himself: "It's really possible!" ”
At the beginning of Shen Shi, the people of the ancient mansion came to greet their relatives, and Dugu Weiwei and his eldest sister-in-law Ciyue, second sister-in-law Lin Yahan, Shen Ling, and Dugu Weixin, who ranked thirteenth in the Dugu family, guarded Dugu Weining's small courtyard together, preventing Gu Yi and his pedestrians from entering the door.
At the wedding, there was originally a rule that the woman's sisters and sisters-in-law guarded the door, and the woman and the maids brought by the man competed in civil and martial arts, and only after winning could they marry the bride.
Gu Yizhi is very good at being a person, and he is also very generous and sparse, and he has made many friends in a short time after entering Beijing. Therefore, in addition to some colleagues from the Hanlin Academy, there are also several powerful sons in Beijing, and Quan Shizhi is also among them.
Expedient has a good relationship with Gu Yizhi, he himself is a married person, and he is not suitable to be a concubine, so he asked his younger brother to save face for Gu Yizhi.
The two sides come and go, and they are pairs, and they are compared to poems, Dugu Weiwei and Ciyue are full of poetry and books, and Dugu Weiwei also has a stomach full of poems for 5,000 years, and the two sisters-in-law will be embarrassed to make their faces blue, and in the end they barely make a draw.
Next, Dugu Weiwei set up a small game that compares the coordination of hands and feet, she herself has practiced martial arts all year round, and her coordination of hands and feet is naturally good, which makes the faces of the ministers so embarrassed that their faces are green.
When the Shen family heard about it, they were afraid that they would delay the hour, so they sent someone over to excuse themselves from Duguwei for the only thing, so that Gu Yizhi and the ministers could enter the door.
Sending Dugu Weining away, Dugu Weiwei began to busy with his marriage.
First of all, it is necessary to pick a maid to marry, Amin Ajie is necessary to bring, Shen gave Dangdang a good family among the people in the house, so Dangdang and the future in-law's family are married in the past, and Ding Ding as the housekeeper's daughter-in-law and his husband's family also have to follow the past, and more than a dozen big and small maids need to be selected.
There is no other person in the house, only the honest ones are selected among the children born in the family, and they are trained by the grandmothers who come from the palace.
On this day, someone suddenly came to report Dugu Weiwei, saying that there was a girl outside the door who claimed to be Shi Xiu and asked to see the second miss.
Shi Xiu was demoted to slavery, which family should he have been sold to as a slave, what to do at this time? Dugu Weiwei thought in his heart, and still ordered someone to let her in.
She actually sympathizes with Shi Xiu, this girl is a little extreme, but she was born in such a family, no one loves her, it's just a little extreme.
Shi Xiu was brought in, didn't dare to look around, and knelt down first and said: "Shi Xiu greeted the second miss and said hello to the second miss!" ”
Dugu Weiwei raised his hand to let her get up, and said, "Thank you, Miss Shi made a special trip to give me congratulations today?" ”
Shi Xiu's expression was a little confused, he wrung his fingers and bit his lip for a moment, and suddenly knelt down again: "Second Miss, please buy the slave!" ”
Dugu Weiwei was a little surprised, this girl suddenly came to let herself buy her, what was the reason?
