June 14 this year is Gu Qingwan's 15th birthday, and it is also the day to hold the ceremony of harmony.

Gu Qingwan's ceremony was presided over by Mrs. Li of the Prime Minister's Mansion and Mrs. Gu of the Marquis of Zhenyuan's Mansion.

Even Her Royal Highness the eldest princess came to congratulate her, and she also brought the Holy Decree to come.

Above the Ming Hall, Gu Qingwan was wearing five complicated costumes, with a wide skirt behind her, Xu Bu walked through the jade steps laid out in the brocade, and knelt down with bated breath in front of the statues of the ancestors of the Gu family, folded her palms, raised her eyebrows, and bowed deeply.

Mrs. Li was dressed in a ruyi patterned gold dress, and the phoenix pendant swayed on her forehead, reflecting the tears in her eyes. She looked at Gu Qingwan and thought of her only daughter Li Jingxuan, as if the day of Li Jingxuan and the gift of Lu was just yesterday, more than ten years have passed, and now her granddaughter has grown up, looking at her bright and dignified, beautiful granddaughter, she feels deeply gratified.

The eldest lady in gorgeous clothes and makeup stood aside, staring at Gu Qingwan with a smile.

The eldest lady personally pulled up Gu Qingwan's long hair and layered it into a high bun.

Old Madam Gu inserted a golden hairpin with eight treasures of imperial gifts into Gu Qingwan's hair bun, and used a crescent ring decorated with eighteen round pearls to tie up my eyebrows and hair, revealing a smooth forehead.

Old Madam Li smiled with tears in her eyes, and looked at Gu Qingwan for a moment in the sound of the ceremonial official's chanting, kneeling down to worship the ancestors, the eldest princess, the grandmother, the grandmother and the eldest lady. Licheng, Gu Qingwan got up, raised her face, and looked around.

Under the full hall, everyone was silent.

The high candle lantern casts her shadow on the bright green bricks, and the clouds are graceful and graceful.

Every place Gu Qingwan walked through slowly drew everyone's eyes and made the ceremonial officer forget to sing.

Independent of the center of the colorful streamer, all the brilliance gathers in her.

The only regret is that her father Gu Tianyuan, as well as her deceased mother and brother whose whereabouts are unknown, were unable to attend her ceremony.

After the ceremony, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess personally read the holy will.

"Your Majesty has a will, Gu Qingwan, the daughter of the Marquis of Zhenyuan, is gentle and dignified, knowledgeable, docile and bright, and can be a model for women in the country, and Gu Qingwan is specially canonized as the lord of Zhaoyang, Qin this!"

"The courtier Gu Qingwan accepted the order, thank the lord Longen." After Gu Qingwan knelt down and bowed, she received the holy decree with both hands, she had some doubts in her heart, she remembered that in her previous life, she came down after Gu Tianyuan won the battle, and the will to canonize her as the county lord came down, this time it was advanced, could it be that something would happen?

"Congratulations, Lord Zhaoyang." The eldest princess has a smile in her eyes, a gentle and kind smile on her beautiful face, dignified and elegant, and her noble temperament is natural, and her every move is a royal style.

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, for coming to participate in the courtiers' ceremony, the courtiers are very happy." Gu Qingwan said respectfully.

Today, a banquet was set up in the Hou Mansion in Zhenyuan, and Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Li accompanied Her Royal Highness the eldest princess to the backyard of the Hou Mansion, where there was a banquet for the female dependents, the eldest lady entertained the female dependents of each house, and the male guests were entertained by Gu Tianyou.

Gu Qingwan went to Peach Blossom Garden to change her clothes and dress, and today she changed into an adult woman's makeup. Makeup, Zilan and Ziyu and other maids looked at Gu Qingwan in a daze, unable to speak for a long time.

The woman in the mirror combs a pair of flying fairy buns, jade-colored woven silver luan patterned clothes, and is covered with rose sara clothes.

"Miss, you are really beautiful today, like a fairy from the sky." Zilan praised heartily.

"Our young lady was born as beautiful as a fairy, but now when she dresses up a little, people can't take their eyes off it." Ziyu was not stingy in complimenting on the side.

"Okay, when did you two little girls become so sweet-mouthed?"

Gu Qingwan talked and laughed with the two maids for a while, and then took Ziyu and Zilan to the banquet.

Today, the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion specially invited the most famous double happiness team in Beijing to sing the hall, and the stage was set up in the Cuiwei Pavilion of the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion, and the Cuiwei Pavilion with the ice cup was put in, which was cool and comfortable, and when the guests arrived, the play began.

Old Madam Gu naturally beckoned someone to arrange the seat, then pushed the book to Old Madam Li, and said with a smile: "Mother-in-law, let's order it first!" ”

Mrs. Li was naturally humble and said, "It's better for the master's family to order first, I'll listen to the excitement, I really don't understand this!" ”

Mrs. Gu had no choice but to order a few lively and festive ones by herself, and passed the book to the other ladies, asking them to play one by one, and when the gongs and drums sounded, the big play began.

Gu Qingwan was not interested in this scene, she only accompanied Mrs. Li to talk, and the eldest aunt was a little in good spirits, so she asked with concern, "But are you tired?" ”

Fang shook his head and said, "It's okay, I didn't have a good rest last night, and now I'm a little tired." ”

Gu Qingwan nodded, looked at her eldest aunt, and saw that her set of heads and faces today was very luxurious, so she asked, "Auntie, your set of heads and faces looks like they were customized in Linglong Fang?" ”

Without waiting for Fang's answer, Li Bingdie on the side praised like a treasure: "Cousin, don't you know, this set of noodles is a birthday gift that my father specially bought for my mother, and today is the first time I wear it out, it looks good, right?" ”

Gu Qingwan looked at Fang's jewelry with her eyes and found that this set of heads and faces was indeed very luxurious, so she nodded and said: "It is indeed very beautiful, the peony is graceful and luxurious, and it is the temperament of the eldest aunt!" ”

Fang's heart was happy when he praised this sentence, and Li Bingdie was even happier, and he suddenly liked this cousin who was not very close to him in the past, and said with a smile: "I'll just say it, my mother also said that the patterns are too bright and eye-catching, and I am afraid of people laughing!" Can Daddy's vision be bad? It can be seen that Daddy cares about his mother, hehe! ”

Fang's face was quite uncomfortably blushing, and he poked Li Bingdie's head with his hand, and said angrily: "You little girl, you actually make fun of your father!" ”

Li Bingdie knew that the Fang family doted on herself the most, so she said coquettishly: "Mother, you have wronged Die'er, Die'er is envious of the good relationship between her mother and her father, every year on your birthday, even if you don't do it much, your father will not forget to buy you a gift, every time we go out to participate in the banquet, which lady doesn't envy my mother to have such a good husband!" ”

Listening to his daughter's words, Fang's eyes clearly had indescribable joy, although there was also some mustard between him and Li Shaokang over the years, but in the end, he was still dedicated to himself, and she had nothing to complain about, marrying into the Li family, her in-laws were reasonable, and she was like her own child, her husband did not take concubines all these years, and she was so good at giving birth to a son, she could be regarded as complete.

Thinking about it this way, even those troubles these days don't seem to be nothing, and now the only thing she looks forward to is that Li Yuanzhan's leg can be cured, which is already complete for her.

Gu Qingwan also nodded happily: "The eldest aunt is naturally a good blessing!" ”

Mrs. Li also said with relief: "I just ask you to be harmonious and harmonious for a lifetime, and raise your eyebrows, if my Wan'er and Die'er can meet such a wishful husband in the future, I will have nothing to ask for!" ”

In a word, Gu Qingwan and Li Bingdie were silent, Gu Qingwan had a wry smile in her heart, her wishful husband was still far away at the border at this time, and she now had to think of dissolving the bad marriage contract, a cup of tea, fainting on the tip of her tongue, which happened to hide the bitterness in her heart.

Li Bingdie's face was red, and she said coquettishly: "Grandmother, Die'er will stay in the Li family for the rest of her life and accompany her mother and grandmother!" ”

Old Madam Li took her little hand and laughed, Li Bingxin, who was sitting next to her, frowned, leaned over and said, "Grandmother, why are you so happy, and you can listen to Xin'er!" ”

Old Madam Li has always been indifferent to Li Bingxin from that concubine, and only said: "It's just watching the play, you don't accompany your mother, what are you doing when you come to me?" ”

Li Bingxin saw that Mrs. Li didn't seem to welcome her arrival, so she pouted and said, "Grandmother, it's boring to watch the show, Xin'er wants to come and talk to you!" ”

Old Madam Li couldn't say anything when she saw this, so she only asked her to sit down. Li Bingxin was also not polite, and asked someone to move a stool by herself, and insisted on squeezing between Li Bingdie and Mrs. Li.

Li Bingdie frowned and said, "There are so many empty places there, why do you need to crowd here?" ”

Li Bingxin raised her neck and said domineeringly: "I want to sit next to my grandmother, but I came here to talk to my grandmother, shouldn't my sister let my sister?" ”

Li Bingxin has always been arrogant in the Li Mansion with Li Xiang's favor, and even Li Bingdie has to let her in the Li Mansion.

"It's the same thing to sit across from you and talk, so why bother to make someone want to make room for you? Your aunt is not feeling well, so don't toss her! Old Madam Li was dissatisfied with Li Bingxin's arrogant appearance and said unhappily.

Old Madam Li's words were not aimed at Li Bingxin, but Li Bingdie was sitting between her and the Fang family, if Li Bingdie wanted to move the place, then she would have to work the Fang family, so she said this.

But Li Bingxin only understood that Old Madam Li didn't like her, but she was unwilling, looked at Gu Qingwan again, and said, "Then I'll sit on my grandmother's right!" ”

Saying that, she asked her to move the chair between Gu Qingwan and Mrs. Li, intending to squeeze Gu Qingwan to the side. In the past, Gu Qingwan doted on Li Bingxin very much, treated her as her own sister, and let her everywhere, on the surface their relationship seemed very good, at least Gu Qingwan thought so before, until Gu Qingwan was the most depressed, her cousin not only did not help her, but stepped on her, so that Gu Qingwan completely saw her true face. After being reborn, Gu Qingwan understood what the difference between intimacy and intimacy was, she had tried her best to distance herself from her second uncle's family, kept her distance from Li Bingxin, and no longer treated her like before.

Originally, Gu Qingwan was the master today, and she didn't want to worry about her, thinking that it wouldn't be a big deal if she let her go a little, but how did she know that Li Bingxin seemed to be intent on finding fault, and said in a weird manner: "Cousin won't mind letting me sit between you and grandmother, right?" ”

Gu Qingwan glanced at her and said with a smile: "Naturally, I don't mind, being close to my grandmother doesn't necessarily have to be next to each other, if you really go on a blind date, you can also be close to the end of the world, if you are pretending to be close, it is just the end of the world!" ”

No matter how stupid Li Bingxin was, she couldn't hear what Gu Qingwan meant, and said coquettishly to Old Madam Li angrily: "Grandmother, what does my cousin mean by this, is it sarcastic that I am not really close to my grandmother, grandmother ......"

Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Li straightened her face and said unhappily: "What's the trouble, Wan'er didn't say anything wrong, you don't want a small belly, sit down and listen to the play, don't be rude in front of so many people!" ”
