Chapter 285: Going to the Banquet
The family held the post and discussed, this is the first time that their family has appeared in the aristocratic circle, who should go, and what kind of appearance should go. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Qian Sangui can't even get out of bed, so he definitely can't go. Man, it's money full of rivers. Women, Pan Yue can't go, there are many people that day, and not everyone has good intentions towards her. Qian Yixiu had to go, but she was an unmarried girl, so she couldn't go alone, and she had to be accompanied by female elders, so the Wu family had to go too.
When Wu heard this, he waved his hand again and again, "My mother is afraid, my mother doesn't dare to go." I heard that those noble ladies are beautiful and young, and can speak well, but my mother is afraid of losing your face. ”
Qian Manjiang said with a smile, "People rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, and my mother is not much inferior to them in dressing up." As long as the mother speaks less, let the single mother remind her that it is fine. In Cining Palace, the eldest princess Taifeng and Yue'er only met a few days ago, and she pities Yue'er very much and will not embarrass you. He said to Qian Yixiu, "As for Xiu'er, you are so smart that you don't need to be reminded by your father." I just remember that this appearance is on behalf of you and your younger brothers and sisters, don't run around, don't cause trouble, and don't let people bully you. ”
It was also discussed, just dress up properly, not too rich, but not too shabby. Especially Qian Yixiu, her color is too good, and she can't be dressed too expensive. Some noblewomen are very rude, and they will make bad moves if they are robbed of the limelight. After all, they haven't stepped on the hot ground yet, and they don't have the help of friends.
The Qian family has no shortage of good materials and good jewelry, and it can be said that the turtle has meat in the belly, which is more material than some big families with bright surfaces. The Queen Mother rewarded them with a lot of makeup satin, brocade, cloud satin, etc., and Pan Juma gave so many good things, plus all kinds of jewelry made of various gemstones that Qian Yixiu bought from foreigners. Pan Yue was skillful, and took Mother Song and Sister-in-law Huang to embroider two sets of clothes for Qian Yi, I believe that there are few such beautiful clothes in the circle of noble girls.
Qian Manjiang means that don't wear those two sets of clothes, as well as those rare good jewelry, don't wear them.
When she returned to Xiangxue Courtyard, Mama Gong kept talking to Qian Yixiu, asking her how to pay attention to her manners. In fact, if her own girl pays attention to herself, her demeanor is no worse than that of any noble girl. But the premise is that she should pay attention, as long as she doesn't pay attention, her boldness will be revealed.
The next day, Pan Pony came. He said that Pan Yang's daughter-in-law Fu will also go, and let Qian Yixiu be with Fu when the time comes. He will also go, and if there is anything, let people bring the letter to the front yard. He also said, "My granddaughter, who is handsome and beautiful, is also a disciple of me and Yu Xiu, and she can be said to be both talented and beautiful, what are you afraid of?" ”
He was still satisfied with Qian Yixiu's performance, taught her painting for more than two months, and felt that she had made rapid progress and was much better than he expected. The characters she paints, although the artistic conception is not enough, always have a different charm. Although it is not as good as many people, it is already one of the best among the little girls. Including those noble ladies of the family who have been painting since elementary school, although the basic skills or freehand are stronger than Xiu'er, they are not as good as Xiu'er's whimsy.
He attributes this to her aura and calligraphy skills, as well as his ability to teach.
He now prefers Qian Yixiu, this granddaughter is more like him than his son and his two grandsons.
However, he didn't want her to be a celebrity like himself or anything, not only did she owe so much talent, but she also had too many distractions to concentrate on learning. Besides, a girl, why should she be so good at learning?
The next day is the tenth day of the lunar month. When I woke up early in the morning, I found goose feathers and heavy snow flying outside the window. He took the pink beads and white beads that came in from breakfast and said, "It's colder than usual today, so the big girl should wear more." ”
After breakfast, Qian Yixiu was surrounded by Mama Gong, Lan Zhu, and Zi Zhu and dressed up. The ladies who participated in the banquet all liked red and glamorous, especially on snowy days, and they could make people shine brightly when they wore them.
Then she dresses more elegantly. Follow Daddy Jiang's instructions not to be too extravagant, not extravagant, but always chic. Originally, she was like Pan Yue, and she was most suitable for Su Ya.
Yesterday I had all my clothes and jewelry ready. She wore a goose-yellow cardigan brocade coat with white fur trim, embroidered with several leaves of green bamboo, and a plum blossom pleated skirt embroidered with smoky pink cloud satin. combed his hair and wore a jasper and phoenix hairpin. The makeup is embroidered by Qian Yixiu, which is light and natural.
The little beauty in the mirror is elegant and smart, and there is a kind of taste and style that is different from ordinary people. Where is the rustic spirit of a country man in her body?
Before going out, Lan Zhu put a pink cloak embroidered with green plum calyx on her. She will take Mama Gong and Lan Zhu with her today.
took a sedan chair to the main courtyard, where Wu and Qian Manjiang were already waiting for her. Wu wore a healed jacquard brocade gown, a camel-colored soft satin embroidered horse-faced skirt, a slanted phoenix bead and gold silk swaying, and a crimson cloak. Once dressed up, people are also a lot more expensive, and it would be better if the back was straighter.
Daddy Jiang was wearing a lake blue jacquard brocade robe, a wide lilac belt, a jade pendant and a purse, and a hair crown, looking heroic. He usually wears a military uniform, and rarely dresses like this.
Qian Yixiu joked, "Daddy is really handsome today, my mother must have praised you a lot." ”
Qian Manjiang blushed a little, and said angrily, "This girl, she is so old and still playing poor with her father." "Yue'er has indeed been praising him this morning, from the time he put on this garment, she has been praising until he goes out.
A few people took a sedan chair to the front yard, and then changed into a carriage and went to the Taifeng Eldest Princess's Mansion.
got into the carriage, and Mama Gong was still reminding Qian Yixiu in a low voice, "The eldest princess is kind, and the population of her house is simple, the girl only needs to hide from her family's little overlord Huang Jinyu." That lord, who is used to being in a bad shape by the eldest princess, loves to tease the beautiful little lady......"
The defense of men and women in the Great Qian Dynasty is not too strict, this kind of banquet, eating and playing men and women will be separated, but they will generally be together when they compete for talents. Therefore, all this feast and that feast will always make up a few pairs of good marriages. Many families with marriageable men and women come with their children.
In particular, the eldest princess of Taifeng is known as the "female moon old". She has held plum banquets for decades, and there are nearly 100 marriages.
Before arriving at the eldest princess's mansion, there were subordinates standing on the side of the road to maintain order. When the carriage arrived at the eldest princess's mansion, everyone got off the car, and the coachman would be taken to the place where the car was parked in front. The men went directly into the outer courtyard, and the women got out of the carriage and a palanquin came to take them to the inner courtyard.
Although there were many people coming, it was orderly.
The sedan chair went directly to the courtyard of the eldest princess, and after Qian Yixiu got off the sedan chair, he went directly to support the Wu family. The snow in the sky was still falling in large flowers, and Wu's palms were sweaty, and his body was trembling slightly.
Qian Yixiu said in a low voice, "Don't panic, they are all people with a nose and two eyes, what are you afraid of?" ”
ps: I added another one more today, thank you for the monthly pass! (To be continued.) )
