Chapter 173: Out of the Cabinet
Mama Li's face was like a thousand-year-old lake, and she held a comb in her hand and combed Xue Yao's black hair and said, "Mama Gui's body is cold, and it just so happens that the old slave is free, so she invited herself." ”
Invited? I'm afraid it was sent by my sister. Mama Li is the grandmother's dowry grandmother, since the birth of her sister, she has been guarding her sister every step of the way, and now she is the first proud person in the yard of her sister, she takes care of the whole yard in general, and half a fly can't fly in.
Xue Yao bit her lip and tried her best to hold back the hatred at the corners of her eyebrows and eyes. Don't look at the eldest grandmother who ignores everything, but the door is fine, her ears are full of nothing in the house, and her only daughter, Ai Sister, is full of bad water, and at a young age, she will use means to deal with the warbler Yanyan in the big master's room, and Xueyao has suffered a lot in her hands.
She knew that Uncle Dingfu wrapped Qingbi as an outer room like stepping in the clouds, and felt that the days of leaving the pavilion passed slowly, these days, the whole heart is like a cat scratching fire, which day is not looking forward to going out, but really on this day, I saw that it was Mama Li who came to comb her hair, and Hulala thought that there were two fierce rivals in the corner of Dingfu that she had forgotten and were more prosperous than Qingbi's name.
No matter how many old ladies in Dingfu don't want to see Sister Ai, after all, she is the only child in the mansion. Don't look at Uncle Dingfu's greed for flowers and love the moon, and he doesn't want to see his grandmother, although he treats his sister and child without fulfilling his father's parenting responsibility, the cute sister's food, clothing, housing and transportation are all high-quality, and I don't know if she is the only eldest lady when I walk in Dingfu. Last time she reprimanded Xue Yao, Xue Yao cried to the eldest master, although the eldest man hugged her and comforted her, he didn't say a word about his sister.
Seeing Mama Li, Xue Yao gritted her teeth in her heart, and she also knew the trick. Who is called Uncle Dingfu only has this one daughter, even if he disobeys her, he is still a precious eldest lady, no matter how many children there are in the clan, none of them is his blood and bones, as long as his sister is still the only sister, no matter how much he can't leave his heart.
There was a commotion in the house. Xue Yao went to Ding's Mansion as a second room. Although Li felt a pity in her heart, it was also her own choice, and she had to go into the upper room to help on the day when she got out of the cabinet.
The whole upper room was noisy. Xue Jiaoxue is like a quiet sister, and several sisters are all helping. Xue Rujing sat on the kang to help pull the wedding dress, and Xue Jiao stood next to Mama Li and handed over the bead hairpin who combed her hair.
The daughter of this era is out of the cabinet, and she is still the first time to see it, and she can't help but be curious. In her impression. In ancient times, women went to large families to become concubines, and there were no such cumbersome ceremonies. Only because Xue Yao is the second lady can enjoy a series of ceremonies on marriage leave.
In the past few days since she came to the house, Xue Yao has lost some weight, and her chin is more and more pointy, perhaps because her skin is white and young, but she does not have a sense of bitterness and meanness. On the contrary, there is an indescribable delicate charm.
Mama Li held Xue Yao's chin and motioned for Xue Jiao to hold her head. Mama Li combed her hair, twisted her face, and trimmed her eyebrows, so she was used to it, and she applied it to her temples. Pulled two pink silk threads and pulled a head in each hand. The thread is straightened between the two hands, and the other head is bitten and pulled apart with the mouth to form the shape of a "ten" frame. The hand moved up and down, and the red double line was divided and closed, and the line touched Xue Yao's face, and the fluffy hair was already twisted away when he pulled it.
"It's a blessing for my sister to enter the Ding Mansion!" Mama Li didn't like Xueyao in her heart, and she had to say a few auspicious words on this happy day. What if she opens her face, anyway, she is just a concubine when she enters the Ding Mansion, and she has no powerful maiden family to rely on, so it is not up to Sister Ai to decide what to do in the future.
Mama Li's hand was heavier, and Xue Yao changed color a few times with a snort. The Li family only regarded Mama Li as a capable old man in front of the old lady of Dingfu, and quietly stuffed money for her, telling her to draw Xue Yao more heartily.
"I usually see the girl on duty in front of the old lady in the house, but now I see that it is really good, the skin is really fine, no wonder the uncle loves something, when I came, the eldest lady specially told me to serve you well, you see that I have not used my strength, but I have scratched red." Mama Li's voice is not loud, but every word can be heard, Xue Yao, like the old lady of Ding Mansion, once she flies on the branch, she never wants to mention her humble background in the past.
After passing through the open face of Xue Yao, it is as tender as a bud that has just been drawn on the willow branch in spring. Xue Jiao stood aside with a red lacquer and gold tray, which contained a pink wooden comb, pink box powder, pink ribbon, pink silk thread, and two boiled eggs. Xue Yao saw the pink crowded on the plate, and hated her nails in her palms, at the beginning, the big red silk thread that the Zhao family prepared, was replaced by Mama Li with red, and then the flat wife was also a concubine, and it was also red. The peeled eggs rolled over his face, and then he soaked a powder rope in water and wringed off the fine fluff on his face, rubbed rose balm and plucked jasmine powder, and dotted his cheeks and lips with a touch of pink rouge.
When Mama Li opened her face, there was a Quanfu person standing next to her, who was invited by the Zhao family. I saw her open her mouth to sing, her voice was clear and spread far away, and as soon as she opened her throat, she stopped the gongs and drums outside, and the people in the courtyard gathered to listen to her singing.
"The left bullet is a line to give birth to a noble son, the right bullet is a line to give birth to a delicate man, and the third line is stable on one side, and the young lady gives birth to a unicorn. The eyebrows are pulled like a crescent, and the champion looks at the flowers. We congratulate you today, congratulations on your bride. ”
Mama Li sighed in her heart, to be a bride, you are also worthy!
After opening the face, spread Xue Yao's braids and tie them into a bun on the back of her head. Xue Yao personally opened the dressing box, took out a red gold crown, and embedded a pearl the size of a soybean on it, densely covering a face, and when it turned, the pearl light in the room flowed. Xue Yao was proud in her heart, but because she couldn't wear a red wedding dress, Uncle Ding spent a lot of money to give her such a golden crown.
After combing his hair, he put on his wedding dress. Although the wedding dress is not red, the material and the decoration on it also cost 100 gold, and Jinghao has just embroidered it, and Xue Yao has already tried it.
Xue Ru and Jing took a shirt and a skirt, and together they brought the wedding dress.
At the time of the wedding dress, everyone else drove out, and only Mama Li and the daughter of the Chen family were there. The pink wedding dress dragged more than three feet to the ground, embroidered with a pair of mandarin ducks on it, and under the mandarin ducks were two lotus flowers, which were decorated with pearls, shaking off a room of colorful pearlescent eyes of flower people.
What is this wedding dress doing if it doesn't stab grandma's eyes? Mama Li quietly glanced at Xue Yao, and the wedding dress set off her little face more and more handsome, such a delicate girl's family is not only Uncle Dingfu. I'm afraid all the men in the world cherish it.
Thanks to Ai Sister, at a young age, she is thoughtful. When she came, she handed her a baggage, which contained a pink ordinary dress and a pink hijab, saying that it was the clothes worn by the old lady of Dingfu to appreciate Xueyao's marriage.
Xue Yao shyly took off the outer blouse, reached out to grab the wedding dress, but was blocked by Mama Li.
Everyone was stunned for a moment.
Mama Li looked at everyone with a smile and said, "Our old lady specially rewarded Miss Xueyao with a wedding dress. ”
He turned around and took out a red cloth bag embroidered with plum blossoms. A pink wedding dress was pulled out of it. After shaking it off, Xue Yao's face turned white. The style of the wedding dress was ordinary, no different from ordinary clothes. There are also no mandarin ducks and Tilian.
"Why doesn't Miss Xueyao like it?" Mama Li folded the wedding dress with a smile and sighed, "The old lady rewarded me, I don't dare not listen." Hurriedly sent it. ”
Xue Yao couldn't wait to strangle Mama Li to death at this time.
Everyone's eyes fell on the wedding dress brought by Mama Li, and everyone had a different taste in their hearts. Zhao smiled and flattered Mama Li: "Mama, don't dare to bother with the wedding dress given by the old lady, I think it is better to wear the wedding dress embroidered by Xue Yao herself." ”
Mama Li didn't raise her eyelids and said, "It's just a concubine, and I don't know who to show if it's so grand." ”
was ridiculed as a concubine in public. Xue Yao's eyes were red, and she gritted her teeth and didn't let go.
Mrs. Chen didn't believe it when she heard that Xue Yao was going to Ding Mansion to be a concubine, she always thought that Grandma Ding Mansion was a dying person. Xue Yao went to be a steproom like her, how could she be a good steproom, but she became a concubine. At the moment, I was angry in my heart, and I said angrily: "Mama is mistaken, my Xueyao is a serious grandmother in Dingfu, which concubine is it?" ”
Mama Li sneered: "I want to ask what kind of serious grandmother Miss Xueyao is?" If it is known that she is sent to the government to sue Uncle Ding Mansion for the crime of stopping his wife and remarrying, I don't know if Miss Xueyao may be able to afford it. ”
Xue Yao didn't dare to breathe when she heard this, and her pink face turned red and white, and then turned red again.
Zhao's heart twitched, and he quickly held back, with a smile on his face, his eyes swept over Mrs. Chen, and saw that she had covered her heart, and her eyes were straight.
"What do you say?" Mrs. Chen is an old woman in the countryside, so she naturally doesn't understand the twists and turns of rich and noble families.
Mama Li didn't speak, she untied the wedding dress and hijab again, handed it to Xue Yao, and after a long time, Xue Yao gritted her teeth and reached out to take it.
Zhao didn't hold back, and tears fell.
The Li family and the Cai family glanced at each other, and sighed in their hearts, after all, it is a concubine. Zhang's eyes were full of beads staring at Xue Yao's golden crown, this good wealth is worth it even if you are a concubine.
Xue Yao blinked her eyes, endured the sourness in her heart, and put on her wedding dress.
is a good Uncle Dingfu, in order to get her, he lied to her. At the beginning, she smeared honey in her mouth, and promised to stand side by side, her status in the Ding Mansion was the same as that of the eldest grandmother, and she did not have to be a concubine in her daily life, and let her be a housekeeper as soon as she entered the door.
When it came, she still entered the mansion as a concubine. It's okay not to wear a red wedding dress, but she can't even wear her favorite wedding dress, which makes her not hate. She has been planning for so long, and in the end, she was put on a role by her beloved sister.
In the past, she could still cry to Uncle Dingfu, although she couldn't punish Sister Ai, she could get a lot of compensation and rewards. Now Uncle Ding Fu is fascinated by Qingbi's meat, and he is afraid that he will be tired of his own tears.
Before entering the door, there were wolves in front of them and tigers in front of them, and the days to come ......
Xue Yao's entry into the door as a concubine was really not the idea of Uncle Ding and the old lady, but the result of the interference of the grandmother's mother's family. Although Uncle Ding Fu is a scholarly family, he is also doing business, since he hit his generation, the business is not as good as day by day, if it were not for the support of the grandmother's mother's family, I am afraid it would have fallen long ago.
The water spilled by the married daughter, the eldest grandmother's mother's brother has never asked about the affairs of Uncle Dingfu, and it was the younger sister who insisted on marrying, and she went to live well.
This time, in order to kill the morale of the eldest grandmother, the old lady deliberately made the two sisters stand side by side, but Ai Sister is a caring one, and she found a foreign family to cry. The grandmother's brother looked at the niece's face and took action to lower the old lady.
The old lady can't be angry, and the family's business still depends on the grandmother's family.
Xue Yao changed into her wedding dress, covered her head, and there was a commotion in front of her, and the big egg ran in: "The one who greeted her in front is here." ”
Mama Li whispered in Xue Yao's ear: "Grandma Ming'er is waiting for Aunt Chen to serve tea in Meixiangyuan." ”
Xue Yao was not the only one who said this, everyone in the room heard it clearly, Xue Yao shook a few times, and was hugged by Zhao.
Outside, firecrackers rang out, and Uncle Ding came from Qingbi, who was not wearing auspicious clothes, and rode a horse at home, followed by a small sedan chair with green curtains. The room was full of guests, and he didn't salute and walked straight in.
The female relatives all poured into Xueyao's house, and Mrs. Chen sent Xueyao all the way to the front of the hall to say goodbye to her parents. Zhao's crying eyes couldn't be opened, and Chen Zichang's mouth was grinning to the root of his ears.
Seeing that the auspicious time had come, Li and Cai personally helped Xue Yao to send her to the sedan chair and covered her with a curtain. Uncle Ding Fu was already impatient, and he didn't drink the tea, so he didn't wait for the auspicious money to be sprinkled, and went across the horse.
The people in the courtyard watched the excitement, knocking melon seeds and discussing: "How to wear a pink wedding dress?" (To be continued)
