094 The dust settles
As Xia Xue's maternal grandfather's family, the Wu family was undoubtedly the first among the guests.
As soon as Wu Qingyun entered the door, she saw three smiling faces.
This is undoubtedly very congested.
She has always known that she was born ordinary, but she also has good facial features and a very delicate appearance.
But in front of the three sisters of the Xia family, they were suddenly compared to the dust. Although she is no longer the same as in the past, she no longer values these superficial things, but she inevitably cares a little in her heart.
No woman cares about her looks at all.
The only good thing about her ordinary appearance is that the eldest young master of the Jin family doesn't like her, and is even dissatisfied with this marriage. But he couldn't have divorced her for that reason...... Unless one party does something irreparable.
Continue to calculate Xia Xue and Jin Dashao?
Xia Xue got married today, and Jin Dashao didn't come to the wedding banquet at all, saying that it was too late to say anything.
Self-defilement? She lived a new life and vowed to live a better life! Something like this that will leave a stain on herself, she will never want to!
"My cousin is here." Xia Xue smiled at Wu Qingyun.
She was born well, and this smile is like a spring flower blooming, so beautiful.
Wu Qingyun pressed the heart-burning resentment in her heart, hooked her lips and said with a light smile: "Cousin said that, you are going to get married, I naturally want to come to congratulate you, congratulations cousin." ”
"It's all my own family, why be so polite." Xia Xue got up and pulled her to sit down beside her, looked at her carefully, and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time, Yun'er has lost a lot." ”
looks a lot thinner, but the person looks very energetic, and the face is more delicate and fair than before......
Even though the body is still his own, there is a difference between a woman who has been married and a girl who has not been married.
Xia Xue and Xia Bangqiu can't see this difference, but Xia Xue can feel it.
"It's not like the last time I got sick." Of course, Wu Qingyun will not say that she deliberately pays attention to her diet, and pays more attention to maintaining her figure. She tried her best to imitate the coquettishness of her childhood, and said coquettishly: "When I was bored during my illness, I still wanted to invite my cousin to come over, but I never found the opportunity......"
Is this complaining that Xia Fu rejected her family's post?
It's been more than half a year since she fell into the water, hasn't she already raised it?
If she really wants to see her, even if Xia Fu rejects Wu Fu's post, she can come to Xia Fu! The two families have been old for many years, and they will never even turn away the cousin of the big house.
But apart from letters, she had never heard of Miss Wu Jiabiao asking to see her!
Xia Xue smiled slightly, and did not answer this conversation. Her soft gaze fell on her with a slight scrutiny, and as the closest sister in the past, the rusty feeling was particularly conspicuous.
The girl in front of her looks so strange.
"This is your favorite jade cake in the past, can you taste it?" Xia Xue pushed a stack of snacks on the table in front of her and said.
When Wu Qingyun heard this, she twisted a piece of pastry and ate it slowly, and then said, "It's delicious, or my sister knows me best." ”
"Eat more if you like." Xia Xue said: "By the way, why didn't Sister Mingyu come?" ”
After eating this piece, she didn't take it again, but took out a handkerchief and wiped her hands, and said with some worry on her face: "Second sister, she suffered from the wind and cold two days ago, and she really couldn't get up. ”
seems to be concerned and worried, but whether it is her actions or eyes, she is too careless.
When Xia Xue saw it, her heart sank.
The cousin Wu Qingyun she knows is a girl with a straight intestine, who has always spoken straightforwardly and never acted coyly. She has always hated that sister, and she has no good voice when she talks about her, and when she hears that she is sick, she is afraid that it will be too late to gloat.
Not to mention worrying about her.
"......I see," she looked away, "Cousin Mingyu is too careless. ”
"Who's to say it isn't? 's mother also punished the people around her, but she couldn't catch up with her cousin's good days of getting married. Wu Qingyun said with some regret, she originally planned to use Wu Mingyu to add some blockage to Xia Xue's wedding banquet! Who knew it was so unfortunate!
In her previous life, Wu Mingyu had such a experience, she was sick for a long time before she got better, and her whole person lost a lot of weight, she looked delicate and weak, very 'weak willow and wind', exactly the same as her shameless aunt!
"In the end, her body matters, and let her be raised for a good life, and I will see her another day." Xia Xue had something in her heart, so she lost the interest in continuing to talk to her, and said casually.
Wu Qingyun responded with a smile on her face, but she was very disdainful in her heart.
obviously hates concubines as much as she does, but she always looks like she loves her sister, it's really hypocritical!
Not long after the Wu family came, the guests gradually came, and there were more than a dozen girls sitting in the Xia Xue House, and it was really lively under the sound of the warbler and swallows - fortunately, the courtyard where she lived was very large, and the house was even brighter, but it didn't feel crowded.
When Wu led Mrs. Quanfu into the house, the room suddenly fell silent.
When Mrs. Quanfu entered the door, it indicated that the team of relatives in Liufu had gone out, and the wedding had entered the formal procedure, and Xia Xue naturally could not continue to accompany the girls to laugh.
Wu asked the maid to lead the girls to sit in the front courtyard, leaving only Xia Bangqiu and Xia Chu, as well as the two girls of the family, to accompany them, preparing to open their faces.
Mrs. Quanfu asked Xia Xue to sit on a chair facing north and south, facing the gate, and the warm sunlight fell on her, making her whole person look scorching.
Although the rest of the girls were curious, they also knew the rules, and they sat and laughed at a distance, glancing secretly from time to time, and then bowing their heads and laughing a few times.
When Xia Xue sat down, there was a little girl wearing a big red jacket, seven or eight years old, holding a plate of tweezers, scissors, five-color silk thread, face grease and copper coins to the side.
Mrs. Quanfu first applied powder to Xia Xue's face, especially the edges of her hair, and carefully rubbed it for a long time, moisturizing it for a long time. Fang took the five-colored silk thread and twisted it into three strands and strung it together with the copper coin. I don't know how she did it, but with a pinch of her hand, the three strands of thread changed into a 'small organ' with three heads, pulling one head on each hand, the thread was straightened between the two hands, and the other head had to be bitten and pulled apart by her mouth to form a 'ten' shape. Just move your hands up and down, and the five colors and four lines will be divided and combined.
Only then did she put the thread close to the girl's face, tore it open, closed it three times, twisted off the white fluff on her face, and repeated it several times, until Xia Xue's face was slightly red, and then picked up the scissors, cut her forehead hair and trimmed her sideburns.
Xia Xue's nurse brought a new copper basin, which contained mountain spring water and a new veil for her to cover her face.
I only heard a female voice full of joy singing: "The left line gives birth to a noble son, the right line gives birth to a beautiful man, and the third line on one side plays steadily, and the young lady gives birth to a unicorn." The eyebrows are pulled like a crescent, and the champion looks at the flowers. ”
Hearing the voice, several girls couldn't help but look towards the door.
But seeing that Mrs. Quanfu had already spread out Xia Xue's braids, she quickly pulled it into a bun on the back of her head, and inserted hairpins and various accessories, while singing: "Open Miss's green silk hair, and press down with an ivory comb." The left comb the right pull the dragon bun, the right comb the left pull the water waves. The coiled dragon bun is added to the tide, and the musk fragrance in the water waves and clouds is smoked. The front comb Zhaojun hugged the pipa, and the back comb boy worshiped Guanyin. Zhaojun Pipa is loved by everyone, and the boy Guanyin loves bad people. ”
In this way, it is complicated to say, but in fact, it only takes a moment of work, and the 'opening of the face' is completed.
The little girl brought down the things that opened her face again, and another person brought rouge and other things for Mrs. Quanfu to put on makeup for Xia Xue.
"A little makeup is a hundred years old, two points of makeup is full of gold and jade?, three points of makeup three yuan and first, four points of makeup everything is as expected, five points of makeup five sons Dengke, six points of makeup six Shun?, seven points of makeup and seven sons of reunion, eight points of makeup and eight caves of immortals, nine points of makeup and nine generations of the same house, ten points of makeup is real."
Mrs. Quanfu is used to doing it, and she sings and paints very quickly, and it doesn't take long for her to get better.
Only the last two strokes of the eyebrows, she reached out and took the eyebrow pencil and handed it to Wu, then smiled and let go.
Wu took the pen, carefully traced his daughter's eyebrows, and said: "There is a spring every year, there is news every year, and I don't think the girl will grow up." If an adult wants to get married, he should give a few instructions to his mother: first, he must be filial to his parents-in-law, second, he must respect his husband, and third, he must be more harmonious and harmonious. Fourth, we must be careful and virtuous, the tea and rice should be even, the fire candle should be careful, and the tea and rice should be clean. Fifth, we should get up early, sweep the floor in front of the hall, and when the distinguished guests come to the house, we should load cigarettes and hand out tea. Sixth, we must learn tailoring, so as not to ask for inconvenience. ”
A few words of earnest advice made Xia Xue almost burst into tears.
"The girl can bear it, don't make the lady reluctant." Mrs. Quanfu hurriedly persuaded: "Let's not spend makeup!" ”
When Xia Xue heard this, she reluctantly accepted it.
Wu looked at his delicate and beautiful daughter with relief, and said, "My daughter is just good-looking!" It's so pretty! ”
Parents in the world, looking at their children, are all perfect.
"Mother's ......" Xia Xue held her mother's generous hand and called in a low voice.
At this moment, the sound of firecrackers sounded outside, mixed with the sound of the greeting procession, playing and singing, from far and near.
Wu patted the back of his daughter's hand and said with a smile: "Okay, my mother should also go to the front, with your father, waiting for you to kowtow to us." ”
Xia Xue was nervous and reluctant in her heart, but she could only watch the Wu family leave with the maids.
The welcoming team arrived, and Mrs. Quanfu hurriedly ordered someone to change Xia Xue's underwear, and personally put her on a coat, and asked her to sit on the couch upright and wait, with a phoenix crown and a curtain made of gold and jade jewels on the side, just waiting for the new aunt to make a hypnotic poem, and then ask her to wear it.
The sedan chair entered the door and went straight to this courtyard.
The idlers had already been cleaned up, and the welcoming team arrived in front of the courtyard gate, only then did they encounter obstacles, Xia Bin and Xia Yi, as brothers, led a group of girls to block the courtyard door.
It was lively outside, and a few girls in the house also joked around Xia Xue, only to make her blush and her heart beat.
Liu Jincheng is not a heavy student, and it is too difficult for him to improvise poetry. Fortunately, the Liu family was also prepared, and Shun Shun recited two hypnotic poems, and stuffed many big red purses into the cracks of the door, so he passed.
At this time, Xia Xue had already put on a phoenix crown and xia cloak, and the red hijab covered her bright face, so she walked out of the house and sat in a sedan chair with the support of the bride and Mrs. Quanfu who came with the welcoming procession.
When the sedan chair man carried the sedan chair to the front yard and asked the newlyweds to say goodbye to their grandfather and grandmother, as well as their parents, they left the wedding room and went to the front yard for a banquet.
The Wu family also spent a lot of money for Xia Xue's marriage, not to mention the dowry, it is the banquet of these dozens of tables, the tables are extremely fine, and a few masters who specialize in making banquet noodles in the best drunken township building in Beijing are specially invited to take charge of the spoon, the taste is unique, and the face is also sufficient.
Since then, Xia Xue has been the daughter-in-law of the Liu family.
How lively the Liu family is, Xia Chu can expect it, but it has nothing to do with her.
Xia Bangqiu watched Xia Xue go out with his own eyes, and a string in his heart suddenly loosened.
This is the most beneficial and biggest change for her after she crossed.
While breathing a sigh of relief, she couldn't help but look at Wu Qingyun, and saw that she couldn't swallow the table full of food, and she inexplicably felt a sense of schadenfreude in her heart.
Originally...... Seeing that the heroine is unhappy, she will also be happy.
Sure enough, as long as people have their own position, their thinking is completely different. She was already destined to stand on the opposite side of Wu Qingyun in this crossing. In this case, the thing that can block her is of course the best thing for her!
Therefore, she smiled and ate two more bowls of rice!
When Xia Xue returned to the door in the third dynasty, Wu looked at Yingwu's son-in-law and his daughter standing together, like a pair of beautiful people, and his heart was even more happy.
Just by looking at Xia Xue's complexion, you can know that she is doing very well.
However, Wu pulled his daughter and asked carefully, knowing that her in-laws were kind and her husband was considerate, so he was a little relieved.
It's not entirely relaxing.
It is said that raising a child at the age of 100 is often worried about 99, and the old saying always makes sense.
Xia Xue's temperament is a person who reports good news but not bad news, if it weren't for the same thing with the maid by her side, the Wu family might not even have this peace of mind.
Xia Xue knew that what she said was the truth.
On the second day of the wedding, the in-laws, brothers and sisters-in-law did not ask her to eat at all, their eyes were full of joy and kindness, and the meeting gifts were also generous. Although she met a few sisters-in-law of the same clan who were a little difficult to get along with when she recognized people, she didn't live in Shangshu Mansion and didn't usually meet often, so she wouldn't care.
On the morning of her return, her father-in-law specially opened the ancestral hall and added her name to the family tree, which shows that he is satisfied with her.
Ordinary new daughter-in-law, but there is a one-month inspection period!
Although it will still be recorded on the family tree after all, it is not as faceless as it is now.
Newcomers always have to be excluded when they enter the house, even if she is a young grandmother? The in-laws acted like this, obviously to make a face for her, so as not to let the subordinates look down on her!
It was really a blessing for her to meet such in-laws, which made her both happy and a little confused.
Although the sister-in-law didn't say it, she could see that she was a little envious of herself.
The eldest sister-in-law is the eldest son-in-law, and she will be a clan wife in the future!
Why should she envy herself?
Nothing more than ...... The in-laws are so good to her! (To be continued.) )
