Chapter 35: The Phoenix Prayer Dance

Compared with the luxuriously and exquisitely dressed Fu family, the Yu family is really simple.

She was wearing only a white-pink gown, a bun on her hair, an emerald green jade hairpin pinned to her hair, and a bare silver bracelet on her wrist.

This dress, if she hadn't come with Xun Ju, she would probably be mistaken for a poor woman who came to the Xun clan to bring her relatives.

After Xun Ju and Yu sat down in the master's seat, the deep-robed Zanli who stood beside Xun Ju stood up and sang loudly: "Open the ceremony!"

The sound of silk and bamboo stopped.

The scene was silent.

With a burst of light and fine footsteps, a slender woman in her early eighteenth years old walked out of the side of the ancestral hall, wearing a woman's hairstyle, she was covered with a moon satin embroidered orchid hibiscus pattern, lined with lilac pigment brocade wrapped breasts, and dressed in a lotus lotus lined with gold thread white nude gauze skirt, with her hair combed in a lily bun, and a golden plum hairpin on it.

The woman's face is gentle and dignified, her eyebrows are delicate, her body is full of the smell of books, and the corners of her mouth are gentle and understanding, she is today's admirer.

Ah Tao asked the tanuki slave beside him, "Who is this noble girl?"

Xun Yuse's cousin Xun Yunliu, the two have been very close since they were children. ”

The tanuki nu paused slightly when he said this, and added: "She is the wife of Sheng Sangongzi." ”

Ah Dao was unexpected: "Sheng ...... Three...... Sheng Shuiyu's wife?!"

Sheng Shuiyu is brutal, bloody and perverted, he actually has such an elegant and beautiful wife, and the two are put together, no matter how they look at it, they don't match.

Ah Dao's eyes swirled back and forth between the Nafu clan and Xun Yunliu, and he muttered in a low voice: "No wonder Mrs. Nasheng is willing to come to the Xun clan as a guest with such an identity, it turns out that there is this relationship in it." ”

Xun Yunliu is Mrs. Sheng's daughter-in-law, and Mrs. Sheng came to sit in town to save face for her daughter-in-law.

The tanuki glanced at Adao and didn't speak.

Ah Tao couldn't help but ask again: "How many sons does this Mrs. Sheng have?"

"There are three sons and one daughter, the eldest princess Sheng Yanran is the eldest daughter, she has a total of three brothers, in addition to Sheng Wuyu, the second son of Sheng, and the third son Sheng Shuiyu, there is also the eldest son Sheng Minglang. ”

Ah Tao nodded.

Xun Yunliu was served by the maidservant, washed her hands, and then waited aside, waiting for the last to appear, today's leader, Xun Yuse.

A moment later, a young girl with her hair in a bun walked in slowly.

She was dressed in a children's dress, with a pomegranate red cloth coat on her upper body, short gown and trousers, and scarlet brocade-edged cloth shoes.

Although she is dressed simply, she is still young, and her face has not yet fully grown, but it cannot hide her bright and moving temperament at all.

The girl's eyes are bright and bright, her appearance is as gorgeous as the sun, and the two autumn eyes under the eyebrows of the two feathers are flashing with bright glow.

The woman's back was straight, her eyes were looking ahead, the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, her chin was held high, and her face showed a bit of high-spirited domineering, and the whole person was very dazzling.

Ah Tao once heard the maidservants in Xiangfu privately talk about this second lady of Xunfu, she is a famous beauty of the royal family, and her appearance is famous for her beauty.

Xun Yuse followed the etiquette, first bowed to the guests, and then faced the west side, kneeling on the soft mat that had been prepared.

Everyone's eyes followed Xun Yuse.

At this time, Xun Yunliu, who was standing on the side, stepped forward, took a glass comb from the maid on the side, and began to comb Xun Yuse's hair.

Later, after the three-step ceremony of Bin Xu, Chu Jia Zhu, and worship his parents, Xun Yuse went out of the hall to change into a plain dress and skirt according to the etiquette, and reappeared in front of everyone.

In this way, we will enter the next step of the "two plus" of the ceremony.

Yousi presented the hairpin, and the Fu family, who was the guest of honor, took it after cleaning his hands, walked to Xun Yuse, and chanted slowly: "Jiyue Lingchen, Nai Shenerfu." Respect for the majesty, the grace of the soot. Eyebrows live for 10,000 years, and will always be blessed by Hu. ”

Ah Daozheng watched it with relish, and suddenly noticed that the Xiangfu guy who had just followed the Xunfu guy out came back.

He walked quickly to the tanuki slave, leaned close to the tanuki and whispered something in his ear, the tanuki nodded, looked at Ah Tao on the side, and said in a low voice: "The son has something to order, and he has to go back to the house early." ”

This is going back?

Ah Tao looked at the ongoing ceremony with some reluctance, and wanted to say that he would stay for a while, but he knew that it was impossible.

Seeing this, the tanuki thought for a while, and then said, "After the ceremony, you go back to the house by yourself, how about it?"

Ah Tao looked at the raccoon slave in surprise, stunned, the raccoon slave obviously saw that he was on the rise, so he deliberately said to keep his own.

She scratched her head a little embarrassedly, forcibly suppressed the little desire in her heart, and hesitated: "Or...... Shall I go back with you?"

The tanuki slave browled his eyebrows, staring at Ah Tao with a smile and not speaking.

Ah Tao looked at him and smiled humbly.

The tanuki opened his mouth to speak, and Atao's fawn-like dark and translucent eyes instantly became pitiful, like a puppy begging for alms, looking at the tanuki slave.

No one can bear to refuse.

The tanuki sighed lightly, "No. ”

Before the end of the tanuki slave fell, the smile on the corner of Adao's mouth was already grinning behind his ears.

The tanuki shook his head helplessly, and said to the little guy on the side, "Let's go first." ”

After saying goodbye to Adao, the two walked through the crowd and left through the side door.

Ah Dao looked at the place where the ceremony was going on again, and at this time, Xun Yunliu had just taken the hairpin that Xun Yuse pinned to his head.

Then, a Xun maid held a tray in both hands and walked up to the Fu family.

Ah Tao stretched out his head, curiously looked towards the tray, only to see that there was a very delicately made white hosta on it, the hairpin was inlaid with three different sizes, made of white jade condensed into the hedge flower petals, each hedge flower petal in the center of a small point of red plum like blood red, delicate and crisp, the hairpin was crystal clear throughout, and the white jade emitted a faint luster of rhyme white.

The whole hairpin at a glance, just like in the early spring snow, a hedge flower branch standing on the branch, lifelike, cold and elegant.

Looking at the white hosta, Ah Tao inexplicably felt a little familiar.

Fu Shi knelt on the soft collapse, picked up the white hosta, and inserted it in Xun Yuse's black hair.

As soon as this step was completed, Fu Shi was just about to get up, but the white hosta suddenly fell to the ground, making a crunching sound.

Fu frowned slightly, leaned over to pick up the white hosta, and inserted it into Xun Yuse's hair again, and then got up and returned to the banquet.

By the time the ceremony was over, most of the day had passed.

According to the old customs of Yin'an, no matter how big or small the happy event is, it must be ended with a phoenix song praying for blessing after the event.

The Fengming Blessing Dance is a dance that summons auspiciousness, which means that the blessing is extended, and it is a dance of great luck.

The Xunfu servants came to clean up the venue and the ceremony, and Xun Ju led everyone to the front hall to watch the phoenix prayer dance.

Ah Tao was also quite curious about this phoenix prayer dance, and she followed everyone to a vast courtyard leaning against the lake, and sat down in the stands.
