Chapter 155: Rites

The scene was a little cold for a while, and everyone present was stunned, this county lord's mother spoke really directly, and even the wife of the right prime minister Wang family did not give face like this.

Mrs. Lin smiled calmly and said generously: "The county lord said that these are all old things, and now the saint strongly supports the marriage between the north and the south, and they have long been indistinguishable from each other. Sister Yi and I have a very good relationship, how can I not help her good things. ”

The old lady was a little anxious, and there were people on both sides who couldn't be offended, so she said: "The county lord has not come back from Beisai for many years, and everything in Beijing is unfamiliar, so I want to stay a few more days when I come back this time, right?" ”

The topic was opened, and Mrs. Lin was still sitting with a smile, expecting Yun Hui's words and deeds that were different from ordinary women. As soon as Yunhui talked about Beisai, she couldn't stop, and she didn't talk about the next hiring, but only complained to the old lady about a lot of hardships.

The old lady couldn't help but see her, so she had to take advantage of the efforts to add tea and tell the Lin family to see how the dowry was placed, and asked the Xie family to help Zhang Luo as well.

Yun Hui took a sip of tea, put down the teacup idly, and talked about the next hire.

"The concubine has been in good health recently, and it is inconvenient to go out of the house, but it is a dowry gift from Zhang Luo in person, and I was sent to visit the ancestor with Yulou today. I'm also a little curious about this future brother and sister, and I'll have to take a good look at it when I have tea. ”

She turned her head and instructed the personal maid behind her, "Rouge, let them bring the Nine Treasures." ”

Rouge agreed, and when he arrived outside the hall, he ordered a group of maids holding rosewood brocade boxes to come in. The box contains a mirror comb ruler bucket, a ruyi scale, an abacus, embroidered shoes, scissors and a cash box, all of which are made of red gold, heavy and brilliant.

The old lady nodded and smiled, very satisfied, and got up and said, "Let's go over." ”

A group of people walked towards the west wing, and the subordinates holding the nine treasures followed behind.

Entering the house, Yun Hui saw Jin Yi sitting on the bib bed in red at a glance, sitting with her head down, and when she saw someone coming in, she calmly raised her eyes with a gentle smile on her lips.

Yun Hui stared at Jin Yi's purple eyes tightly, her face instantly gloomy, and she stood still.

The old lady was really troubled by her today, and when she saw her like this, she coughed lightly and introduced to her with a smile: "This is our second lady Jinyi, who was personally pointed out to the prince by the saint." The last sentence is a bit heavy.

He said to Jin Yi again: "This is the lord of Yunhui, who has been raised in front of the princess since she was a child, and will be your sister in the future." ”

The smile in Jin Yi's eyes faded, and she was very puzzled in her heart, why she, like the princess, was so moved when she saw her appearance.

Her face is different from that of the Central Plains, and she is often concerned in the eyes of the world, originally she has long been accustomed to the stunned expression of the person who first saw her, but because of the strange appearance of the princess last time, the vigilance and hostility in Yun Hui's eyes were particularly obvious, and she couldn't help but have doubts in Jinyi's heart.

She nodded slightly, and couldn't get up before eating tea, so she lowered her head again.

Yunhui was pulled by the old lady to sit on the circle chair opposite.

She was puffed up and looked a little annoyed. Thinking of Princess Chuchen's repeated instructions in the past few days, she must do things well today, and Sima Yulou also warned her not to be willful on the way here, and the tone was not like what her brother said to her sister, but like a lesson to a naughty boy.

Her expression softened, a smile appeared on her lips one by one, and she tried to keep her tone as soft as possible, "Sure enough, she looks beautiful, and the eyes of our prince are still okay." ”

Hearing her words, everyone was speechless.

The old lady frowned slightly, but Mrs. Lin was very sociable, and got up with a smile to play a round game, "Sister Yi'er is good-looking, and she and the prince are a match made in heaven." ”

Speaking, he walked to Jin Yi's side, beckoned the maid with the red lacquer lotus tea tray to come over, Jin Yi got up and took the tea tray, and walked to the county lord Yunhui, there was already a little maid on the ground with a knee mattress, she knelt down, raised the tea tray to her eyebrows, and said softly, "Please Sister Yunhui to eat tea." ”

Yun Hui hesitated for a moment, but still took the white glazed lotus tea cup, gently took a sip of sweet tea, put the tea cup back, and pressed a big red gold paper red envelope on the cup.

Qian Mo took the tea tray on the side, and Qiao Wei helped her up.

Mrs. Lin smiled and led her back to sit back on the bib bed, and the maid holding the brocade box stepped forward, Mrs. Lin took out a lotus ruby copper ring, turned around and smiled and put it on Jinyi's hand, and said auspicious words in her mouth: "And the same heart, a hundred years of harmony." ”

Finally, a square box covered with a big red brocade was served, and more than a dozen cyan betel nuts were placed in it, and Jin Yi took one out of it according to the rules that Qian Mo taught her before. The rest remained in the box, and the maid held the box in front of the county lord Yunhui, who took it and handed it to the rouge behind him.

At this time, Jin Yifang got up, first bowed to Yun Hui, and thanked the whole blessed people, which was considered a ceremony, and everyone said "great joy".

The old lady breathed a sigh of relief.

The corners of Yunhui's lips stiffened, and she reluctantly smiled at Jin Yi: "I am a straight person, if there is something offensive in my speech, you should not be surprised." ”

Jin Yi smiled lightly, "The county lord is polite." ”

When Yunhui looked back and saw Jinru, her smile became much more natural, and she beckoned to her: "Xiao Ru'er, why don't you come and salute me?" ”

Jin Ru came over slowly, and said with a wry smile: "Sister of the county lord, don't come unharmed." ”

Yun Hui stretched out her slender fingers, poked her forehead, and laughed loudly: "Why are you still so afraid of me?" I've been back for two or three days, and I haven't seen you come and see me. ”

Jin Ru frowned and touched her forehead, and was about to speak, when someone came to say: "Lord Hou accompanied the prince to greet the old lady." ”

When Yunhui heard that Sima Yulou was coming, she didn't care about laughing with Jinru anymore, so she hurriedly stood up and walked out behind the old lady. The rest of the people still followed out, and Jinyi and the other sisters stayed in the wing.

Jin Yi and Jin Ru glanced at each other, Jin Ru smiled bitterly and shook her head: "I think her temperament has not changed at all, but it is even more than back then." ”

The dowry team of Chuchen Wangfu has already entered the door here, and the one behind is still far away, and there are many people standing on both sides of the road watching, all of them looking envious and admiring themselves.

Qin Zhili greeted Sima Yulou outside the mansion, and with a smile on his face, he asked the subordinates behind him to take the two live geese in his hand, and Sima Yulou bowed to him, "There is a Marquis Lao to greet him." ”

Qin Jinxuan accompanied him and greeted Qin.

Qin Zhili politely let the two of them into Qingnan Hall, and Qin Zhiwu also rushed over.

Qin Zhili sat on the main seat, looking a little restrained. If it was ordinary for him to see the prince of the world, he would still take the initiative to say yes, but now Sima Yulou is a junior ceremony, and he is sitting on the right, Jin Xuan is sitting next to him, and Qin Zhiwu is sitting on the left.

Qin Zhili coughed and said, "The little girl is really honored to be married by the Holy Lord. The prince is young and promising, and he is really a handsome among people. ”

Qin Zhiwu saw Qin Zhili's nervous expression, and couldn't help but feel disdain in his heart, but he had a warm smile on his face.

Sima Yulou is wearing a azure straight jacket today, with flowing cloud patterns embroidered on the cuffs, a gold silk spider pattern jade belt around his waist, and his black hair tied up with a jade crown, looking handsome and elegant, with a bright demeanor. He presented a rosewood box, which was filled with a door book, with a faint smile on his lips, and his words were extremely solemn, "Yulou came to ask to marry Miss Qin Er today, and I hope that the Hou Ye will agree." ”

Originally, the emperor personally gave the marriage, it was not necessary to do so, Qin Zhili saw that he was so thoughtful, this is the meaning of valuing Jinyi, his heart was very happy, and he exchanged Geng posts with him, and said with a smile: "I am a promise, I am a promise!" The prince will sit for a while, and when the salute is finished, I will take you over to meet the old lady. (To be continued.) )
