82.Eighty-two
On April 27, Ruji finally put on a red wedding dress.
The place of marriage is naturally the Pu family, but the people in the three rooms of the entire Yan family almost rushed to the Pu family early in the morning, from Mrs. Quanfu who opened her face to the bride who put on makeup and combed her hair, the Yan family was fully prepared. Even the traditional premarital physiological and health science textbooks that the girl's mother would secretly give before leaving the cabinet, Yan San's wife Lin Chengyue also prepared it on her behalf.
Chi's face was a little embarrassed, as a mother of Ru Xi's etiquette, and she was full of desire to make friends with Ru Xi, hoping that Ru Xi would be able to help her two daughters in the future, in fact, Chi really wanted to give Ru Xi a good marriage this time.
Even if it won't be as wholehearted as Ruyan Rushu, the Chi family has already planned well and there will be no big mistakes. Just looking at the female relatives of the official family who came and went when Ru Ji added makeup, even if the Chi family was really brainless, they knew that it was the face of the Yan family and General Shi Ben, and people just looked at Ru Ji. If you offend Ruji again in such a situation, it is really the birthday star who always drinks poisonous wine, and he is afraid of a long life.
And in the final analysis, Chi's own daughters are all Pu family girls like Ru Xi, Ru Xi is really married, and Ruyan Rushu in the back is also a little bright. With so many pros and cons combined, the Chi family would not make Ru Ji unhappy at this time. As for the small things that need to be paid for in the process, there is really no need to worry about it. Not to mention how many gifts some well-intentioned people have given to the Pu family because Ru Ji is about to become General Shi Ben's stepson-daughter-in-law, even if they only look at the signature that Ru Xi can bring to Ru Yan and Ru Shu in the future, the Chi family is willing to pay out of his own pocket to marry Ru Xi.
But the Yan family's approach is undoubtedly a slap in the face again. Of course, it was polite from beginning to end, but a long gift list and process list were sent to the Pu family as early as mid-April, and the details of the process made the smile on Chi's face a little unbearable. To sum up, although Ruji was married from the Pu family's house, she was basically sent out by the Yan family.
From the night of April 26 to the wedding ceremony on April 27, all the details and materials are clearly listed in this list. All the subordinates needed for the whole wedding, even including the strong man who carried the dowry, and the cook and maid needed by the Pu family on the day of the wedding, the Yan family should provide all of them. As for drinking water and eating, starting from the night before the wedding, Mo said that the big kitchen of the Chi family and the Pu family no longer needs to take care of Yueluju, and even the maids in Yueluju don't need to interfere anymore.
Such meticulousness and thoughtfulness certainly allowed the Chi family to save money and worry, but the precautionary meaning was really undisguised. Chi's anger lasted for a long time, and he was able to squeeze out a smile again to reward the Yan family who came to deliver the message, and simply put aside the matter about Ruxi's wedding completely.
This kind of wedding gift is about the only one in the capital, Pu Yu and Chi Shi's parents in the etiquette of Ru Xi are almost more worry-free than the bride Ru Xi herself at the wedding, except for the moment when Ru Xi said goodbye to her parents, she appeared with the god like a statue to receive tea and say a few words, so she didn't have to do anything.
As for Chi Song and Geng, who live in the Pu family, they can also be regarded as Ruji's uncle and aunt in terms of etiquette. But the Yan family made it clear that on the day of the wedding, Lin Chengyue, the third lady of Yan, would bring the children of the third room of the Yan family over, and Yan Xiao would send Ruxi to the sedan chair as a brother, and more importantly, even the middle general of Yulin, Yan Heng, the third master of Yan, would also come over in person.
Not to mention Chi Zhugui's ambition and leopard courage before, even if he didn't have those dirty pasts, Ji Song, who had been wandering between the seventh grade and the seventh grade all his life, did not have the confidence to stand with Yan Heng and say that he was the uncle of Ruji in etiquette.
All in all, except for the location of Ruji's cabinet is the Pu family's house, all other wedding matters are handled by the Yan family, which can almost be regarded as the Yan family's marriage.
This can be regarded as the first time in Ruji's life that she really and truly feels the identity of the so-called "granddaughter of Huan Ningbo's mansion".
After getting up early in the morning, she bathed and changed her clothes, and Ruxi was surrounded by five or six maids led by Chaolu and Caiyun, and they all changed into wedding dresses embroidered from Kyushu starting with intimate clothes. As for the grease and powder on the face, the braided knots in the bun, such as Ji was served by four or five people tossing back and forth, and occasionally glimpsed his figure in the mirror, only to feel that it was really like a world away.
Pu Ruxi, the eldest girl of the Pu family, this is the third time she has put on a wedding dress, right?
The first two times were married by the Chi family in the Pu family, which is also decent, not to mention how difficult it was after marriage, and when he put on the big red clothes on the wedding day, he was still shy and full of hope.
Today's self is no longer the same as she was at the beginning.
For a moment, Ru Xi suddenly thought that it would be good if the real Pu family girl could also feel her happiness at the moment.
"Girl, be careful, you're going to start wearing jewelry." Cai Wan screamed softly, and took out a box full of pearl gold hairpins, Juanxiu's face was full of smiles, but her eyes were a little red.
Ru Xi glanced at it, and knew that the harvest at this moment was a little the same as what she thought, and she also recalled the previous past, and she was full of sighs in her past and present life.
"Yes." Ru Ji nodded lightly and said with a smile, "Cai Yun, put a crown on my head." β
Cai Wan nodded, and pressed down the trace of warmth under his eyes. Yes, there is no need to mention it again or remember the past, everything is in the past. Today's big girl, as well as herself, will have a bright and brilliant life.
Ru Daiqing's hair has been carefully coated with osmanthus oil by the maid magenta sent by the Yan family, and combed from the royal blue into a straight green bun suitable for wearing the bride's tiara. Together with the morning dew, the golden silk phoenix crown decorated with pearls and crystals is worn for Ruji, and then the hairpin, hairpin and small hairpin are fixed and neat next to it.
Ru Ji finally understood why the bride needed to be stable at this time, with such a crown on her head, if she was not stable, she would fall crooked in minutes!
With a head full of pearls and emeralds, there are two maids and a happy lady to support her. But fortunately, the bridal makeup of this Dasheng Dynasty is relatively simple, and it is not as white as Ru Xi saw in various travel novels before, and she is so white in the mirror that she can't recognize herself. In fact, the time for makeup is much shorter, although it is true that two or three layers of jasmine powder are carefully pounced, but it is still within the scope of Ruji's acceptance of makeup, and it is not unrecognizable in the base part.
After dyeing eyebrows, cheek color, and lipstick, after these simple paintings, the bride actually took out a box of two-color fragrance powder. Ru Ji almost gasped when she saw it: "This ......"
Xi Niang thought that Ru Xi had never seen it, so she hurriedly explained with a smile: "Girl, don't be surprised, it's not all on your face." β
Ru Xi suppressed the huge question mark in her heart, and just stared at the beveled brush in Xi Niang's hand, which was fluffier than a large brush, and the cloisonnΓ© gourd-shaped box, a white and a brown two-color powder. This, this, isn't this a contouring brush and a highlight shadow?
Could it be that the bride has crossed over?
Ru Ji took a closer look at this bride, about thirty years old, the makeup technique is very sophisticated, the appearance is quite delicate, and the actions are also very appropriate.
Chaolu, who was assisting on the side, looked at Ruxi as if she was very concerned about the bride's makeup at the moment, so she explained: "Girl, this is Linglong Pavilion's special contouring powder, and good brides will use it." It is to make the girl's overall makeup more flexible, the girl is not nervous, and she will not blacken you. β
Ru Ji laughed twice, thinking that of course she knew what contouring powder was, but she was surprised that the Dasheng Dynasty actually had it? Linglong Pavilion, is it Linglong Pavilion again?
"Have you always had this contouring powder?" Ru Xi remembered the rouge color plate that she bought from Linglong Pavilion before, and sighed at that time that the ancients were also very remarkable for the packaging and craftsmanship of cosmetics, but now it seems that it is not so simple.
Chaolu really deserves to be a mobile encyclopedia, and while helping Xi Niang to continue to help, he replied to Ruxi: "This powder has only become popular in the past ten years, but I heard that Linglong Pavilion has been there for a long time, but it has not been sold to the outside world." When the bride goes to buy it, it seems that you have to learn from Linglong Pavilion a few times before you use it. β
Is there still a makeup class?
Ru Ji became more and more excited in her heart, this must be other crossing girls!
"Girl, have some snacks." Xia Yin came in with a food box, interrupting Ruji's train of thought, the box was full of pastries cut into small dices, mainly to not affect the bride's makeup and replenish the body.
Ru Ji nodded, the coming day is long, and it doesn't have to be today to find a fellow countryman, so he didn't have to ask about this in advance, and Cai Wan and Xia Yin served and ate a few pastries, and then continued to sort out the makeup and clothes.
Theoretically, when Ruji's makeup is finished, there should be a sister handkerchief handed over to give her a wedding and talk about the last private words. But the two girls of the Pu family and the Chi family had already decided not to show up under the double reminder of the Chi family and Yue Luju, after all, there were too many grievances and grievances before, although Ru Ji felt that Ru Yan Ru Shu and the others would not have any more moths, but there was really no need to meet again. So the only people who came to speak in response to the situation were Yan Hao and Yan Xuan, and there was also a relatively unfamiliar Gu Huawei, the second daughter-in-law of the Yan family. Because now Ming Green Sakura is now six months pregnant, it is even more inconvenient to go out.
"Time flies so fast, you're going to get married in a flash." Yan Xuan smiled, "I still remember the time we met in Gyeongbokga Temple." β
Only then did Ru Xi remember that the first time she met Chen Hao, Yan Xuan was watching the whole process, and her face immediately became hot.
Yan Rong and Gu Huawei actually didn't know when Ru Xi first met Chen Hao, and the version they heard was only that Ru Xi was married to a six-rank petty official of the Criminal Department. Because Pu Yu himself is an unfortunate thousand-year-old from the fifth grade, it is very common to give a family to a sixth-grade petty official. How many girls from four or five civil official families are married to high-motivated talents, and the kind of people who haven't even participated in the Spring Palace Examination haven't even participated, and I don't know if they can really be officials in the future. Of course, later everyone heard that the six-rank petty official was also a son of the Chenzhou Army and the future stepson of General Shi Ben, so they also felt that it seemed more commensurate.
It's just that even if you don't know any details of the past, you can see Ruxi's expression at this moment and know that Yan Xuan is joking with Ruxi. Gu Huawei is a famous general's family from Baodong Mansion in Yuzhou, and is the wife of Yan Mao's brother, Yan Mao, because Yan Mao is too
Yan Xuan is still generous: "Yes, my sister-in-law will have to put makeup on me at that time." However, you are looking forward to the days like this, are you thinking about when the eldest brother will be able to return to Beijing? β
"It's not serious!" Gu Huawei sputtered, "I also talked nonsense in front of my cousin of the Pu family." β
Yan Yuan's temperament is obviously much gentler and quieter, and when she saw Yan Xuan and Gu Huawei teasing each other, she just smiled, and then whispered to Ru Xi: "If you have anything to do after you leave the pavilion, just move around with us more." I heard that the Chen family has a small population, so this is quieter. In the future, if there are any new changes in the elders, be more tolerant, there is always nothing that cannot be overcome. β
Ru Ji nodded: "Thank you, big cousin." "Although I don't have much contact with Yan Yuan, Yan Yuan actually pulls her at a critical time every time we meet, from the original Huan Ningbo Mansion birthday banquet to the later rolling down from Nanshan and being injured to ask for a doctor, these most important turning points are actually Yan Rong silently helping behind her. Thinking of this, Ru Ji only felt that her eyes were hot again, but she didn't know what to say to thank you: "Big cousin, thank you." If you hadn't been taking care of me, I wouldn't be where I am today. β
Yan Rong actually heard all kinds of things about Ru Xi in the Pu family earlier than Yan Xuan, especially when she was not satisfied with her own dissatisfaction in the Xuan family of the Liguo Mansion, she had more experience of Ru Xi's feelings, and when she heard the words, she patted Ru Xi's hand: "They are all sisters in the family, and this is also the fate of you and me." If you have anything in the future, just come and tell us. β
Ru Ji knew that Yan Miao was referring to the Shi family. Compared with Yan Xuan and Gu Huawei, who are martial arts and lively generals, Yan Yuan is more delicate, especially after being out of the cabinet for a long time, and she understands the warmth and intrigue of the people in the house. For example, there are so many brilliance increases in the pavilion, and a lot of the reason is because Chen Hao is about to become the stepson of General Shi Ben, which means that Su Sanniang is going to marry into the Shi family. As the son and daughter-in-law of Su Sanniang, Chen Hao and Ru Ji are in between the two for the Shi family. But even if you take a step back and say that Chen Hao and Ruxi lived in the north of the city after they got married, and did not go to live in the Shi family, but there were so many turmoil and involvement with the Shi family's second room before, how can it be said that you can completely avoid it?
From the perspective of etiquette, only the third lady marries General Shi Ben, Chen Hao and Ru Ji have to call their father, so naturally, Mrs. Shi is the grandmother, and the old lady Shi is the uncle. The so-called orderliness between the young and the old, and the difference between the inferior and the inferior, is really not empty words.
It's just that Ru Ji is still full of confidence in this, just like the struggle with the Chi family at the beginning, if she really goes in and out of the Shi family often with Chen Hao, it may not be who will cry blind at that time!
