Chapter 178: Wedding Dress
Shen Jiahe woke up in a headache, looked outside in a daze, and found that it was already dawn, so he hurriedly got up from the bed and called, "Bai Ying." ”
Bai Ying came in with the little girls who were waiting for the washing, and after serving Shen Jiahe to dress and wash, the people in the small kitchen sent a bowl of sugar water in time: "This is what the prince specially ordered before leaving, so that the princess will drink it quickly when she wakes up." ”
Shen Jiahe lowered his head and smelled the sweet aroma, so he didn't refuse, and asked while drinking, "Was I drunk yesterday?" ”
Bai Ying rolled up her sleeves for her: "No, I don't know how much I drank, and I still started boxing in the yard, but I gave the slave a big jump, and the prince was probably afraid that you would wake up uncomfortable, so he asked the kitchen to make this sugar water, I heard that it was a prescription prescribed by the imperial doctor, and it was the best for the body after a hangover." ”
Shen Jiahe's bowl has bottomed out, and the headache seems to be a little better, the most important thing is that his mouth is not dry, and his stomach is not uncomfortable, but he still feels very embarrassed when he thinks of what happened last night.
Pei Yuan didn't need to ask anyone, so he went directly to the dark room under the study to find Shen Jiahe, and saw that she was sorting out the account books sorted out by Gonggong Fu during this time, so he asked, "Isn't it uncomfortable?" ”
Shen Jiahe put down the things in his hand and raised his hand to cover his face: "Don't say it, I've heard Bai Ying say it, I'm ashamed." "Drunk boxing in front of Pei Yuan and his subordinates.
Pei Yuan stretched out his hand and pulled her hand down, and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of, anyway, if you are drunk, you don't dare to talk about your master." ”
Shen Jiahe leaned on his shoulder and asked him in a whisper: "Did I mess with you all night, alas, I'm really sorry, I promise to drink less or not next time." ”
Pei Yuan hugged Shen Jiahe and locked the door of the compartment, and then led someone to lie on the soft collapse, coaxing her: "If you really feel embarrassed that I worked hard all night last night, then take the initiative and repay me with yourself." ”
Bai Ying had already walked outside the door of the dark room, listened to the movement inside, and hurriedly reflexively walked out of the dark room, and then closed the door of the study through the dark passage, and he was embarrassed to stay in the study, but went back to Shen Jiahe's courtyard.
Although there was an ice basin in the dark room, the two of them reflexively went to take a bath together, and then they didn't bother to toss anymore and lay down on the cool collapse of the bedroom together.
Pei Yuan fanned her and proposed to her: "On the queen's birthday, you will be cured of your illness, and you don't need to go to the palace." ”
Shen Jiahe hurriedly refused: "I just said that I will accompany you in the future." "If there is another such thing as the Queen Mother's birthday, she doesn't want Pei Yuan to face it alone.
"It's okay, the queen is different from the queen mother, she doesn't dare to be like this, you are at home, I went alone, and I will have an excuse to sneak back in advance." Pei Yuan coaxed her.
Shen Jiahe thought about it and nodded, the queen has always been targeting her, if she doesn't follow, Pei Yuan won't have any conflict with her.
On the day of the queen's birthday, Pei Yuan entered the palace alone with gifts, and it was indeed the queen mother who took the initiative to ask about this matter at the banquet: "Why didn't Princess Xian come today?" Could it be that the mourning family and King Heng said a few words to her that day, and they were unhappy? ”
Pei Yuan replied directly according to what he said before: "The queen mother thought too much, the princess received the wind chill yesterday, and her body is still not well today, and she is worried that she will be sick to the queen mother on the important day of the queen mother, so she didn't come." ”
Lies are repeated! The Queen Mother looked at Pei Yuan, knowing that the other party was deceiving herself, but there was nothing she could do, this person was so protective of Shen Jiahe that she couldn't even say a few words.
The queen also looked at Pei Yuan, she knew very well at this moment that if she continued like this, I am afraid that she would not be able to get rid of Shen Jiahe in her life.
Pei Yuan didn't care what the above two people thought, he presented his two gift lists: "Although the princess has not arrived, her heart for the queen mother has been brought by the courtiers, and the queen mother is invited to smile." ”
Pei Shu thought that he would be able to see Shen Jiahe today, but he didn't want the other party to let him say that he was sick, and his disappointment was overflowing, Pei Yuan glanced at him sideways after speaking, and took in all his expressions.
He secretly affirmed in his heart that it was the right choice that he didn't bring Shen Jiahe over, and after Manager Xu accepted the gift list, he stood to the side with his head down, not even giving those people a look.
stayed up until the banquet began, Pei Yuan still used the reason that Shen Jiahe was at home and wanted to rush home to take care of him, and wanted to leave the banquet early, even the emperor couldn't say a word for such a reason, so he could only nod his head and let him go out of the palace.
The queen looked at Pei Yuan's disappearing back, gritted her teeth and complained to the emperor in a low voice: "Why go home to take care of Shen Jiahe, King Xian obviously didn't take the concubine in his eyes." ”
Although the emperor was not happy, it was better for him to look at his dead face without being out of sight and out of mind, so he comforted him casually: "Why do you bother, it's not the first day I met him, he even dares to offend the queen mother, today is your good day, don't be unhappy for irrelevant people." ”
After Pei Yuan went back, he told her about the queen's birthday: "It's better not to go, save it to look at the faces of those people, but you didn't go today, but you can't give them these popularity." ”
Shen Jiahe laughed: "I feel that the revenge last time has finally been avenged, which is simply very happy." ”
She held Pei Yuan's face and took a sip: "All this is thanks to Lord Xian." ”
Pei Hao and Jin Tai didn't go back until the banquet was over, and the two sat in the carriage on the way back, Jin Tai said casually: "Now it seems that whether it is the queen mother or the queen, the prejudice against the Xianwang couple is getting bigger and bigger. ”
Jin Tai didn't know about the matter between the Queen Mother and Concubine Yun, and Pei Hao didn't plan to tell Jin Tai about it, so he only nodded and replied: "The imperial brother is too popular, and it is naturally a threat to the emperor and the crown prince, and it is normal for them to be unhappy with the imperial brother, hasn't the royal family been like this since ancient times!" ”
Jintai felt that it was not only so, maybe what men saw and what women saw was different, Jintai suddenly remembered the time he rescued Shen Jiahe before.
mentioned it to Pei Hao: "I think the prince still has no love for Princess Xian, and the queen hates iron but not steel, but this anger is sprinkled on Princess Xian's body, which is really a bit too much." I don't think it's like Princess Lixian didn't come today, but it didn't look like she had a cold, and the eight achievements were deliberate. ”
Pei Hao thought about the queen's black face after Pei Yuan left at the banquet, and couldn't help laughing: "This is like what Princess Xian and the royal brother can do, not to mention, the effect is good." ”
"But I still have to thank you for my brother, thanks to Princess Xian for meeting you and entering the palace that day, otherwise I am afraid that she will be more auspicious that day." Pei Hao said sincerely.
Jintai pursed his lips and smiled: "Okay, it's all a family, and it's not a matter of effort." ”
Shi Xiangyuan learned that Shen Jiahe did not go to the queen's birthday banquet, so he sent a greeting post to her, although the wedding date was delayed, but the things that should be prepared still had to be prepared, Shi Xiangyuan wanted to go to Shen Jiahe for advice.
In the afternoon, Shen Jiahe set up tea and snacks and waited for Shi Xiangyuan to come over, but after hearing her request, he laughed helplessly: "I want to help you, but I don't know at all, you are asking the wrong person." ”
Shi Xiangyuan wanted to ask Shen Jiahe how to make a wedding dress, once Shen Jiahe's wedding dress was famous in the capital, she naturally wanted to have such a one, "Then the wedding dress when you got married?" ”
"You forgot, it was your cousin who drew the drawings himself and invited the embroidery lady to do it, but it's not the embroidery girl in our palace, if you want to do it, otherwise when your cousin is busy, help you ask." At this time, Shen Jiahe knew that the ancient wedding dresses were prepared by the bride herself, but fortunately, Pei Yuan helped her prepare them at that time.
Shi Xiangyuan was a little discouraged: "Actually, I still want to do it myself, Jiuzhi should do it by myself, you said that when the time comes, the two of us will marry together, she will wear it herself, and I will indeed wear it by others, even if it is more beautiful, I am afraid that it will be said." ”
Shen Jiahe couldn't imagine so many concerns, but she caught other key points: "You and my brothers are going to get married?" But I haven't heard anyone talk about it from my family. ”
"No, no," Shi Xiangyuan waved his hand again and again, "Our wedding date is going to be postponed again because Uncle Shen said that the imperial court has been in turmoil recently, and he is worried that there will be accidents." ”
After a pause, she smiled again: "Actually, I don't mind the postponement of the marriage, my father will not return to the capital in a short time now, if I can wait for my father to come back, then I will feel satisfied." ”
It was actually a matter of time before the emperor set his sights on the Shen family, but because she was involved with her parents and two elder brothers, Shen Jiahe felt a little unhappy in her heart, she took Shi Xiangyuan's hand and said, "In the future, father, mother and brother will definitely treat you very well." ”
"Naturally, I believe it." Shi Xiangyuan was rarely shy, and suddenly remembered the business of the past few days, and his face was dyed with sadness again, "It's just that this wedding dress is a problem, alas." ”
Shen Jiahe said strangely: "Isn't the wedding postponed?" So how did you start preparing so early? ”
Shi Xiangyuan blushed and said: "Don't think I hate to marry, don't you think that the stupid bird flies first, I am stupid and stupid to make these embroidery girls, how much effort does it take to get a wedding dress, if the wedding date is set, where can I have time, now I have to prepare in advance while I have nothing to do." ”
"That's a good idea, but unfortunately I can't help you." Shen Jiahe was a little embarrassed, "I'm actually not good at embroidery, and I'm embarrassed to let Pei Yuan wear a purse for embroidery." ”
Shi Xiangyuan thought of Shen Jiahe's wedding dress, but was very envious: "You, you don't have to ask anything when you marry your cousin, the wedding dress is held in front of you with your own hands, I have your good fortune there." ”
Shen Jiahe teased her: "My mother's female celebrity is doing very well, I heard that she is still a celebrity in the circle of Mrs. Jingcheng, why don't you go and ask my mother for advice, let her teach you how!" ”
Shi Xiangyuan squirmed and said: "The future daughter-in-law went to the future mother-in-law to bargain how to make a wedding dress, how did you think of it, this matter is going to get out, I am afraid that it will be famous among the ladies in the capital on the second day, although the aunt is kind, but I don't dare to bother her about this." ”
That's right, but Shen Jiahe is just joking, so naturally she won't let her really go to her mother for advice, and the person who came here was in trouble for a while.
Shen Jiahe pinched up a piece of pastry, and before he could stuff it into his mouth, he suddenly stood up and said, "Xiang Yuan, I'll help you think of someone, this person can definitely help you, and it won't embarrass you!" ”
Shi Xiangyuan also said excitedly: "Speak quickly, say quickly!" ”
"Yao Xinrou! It's the one who married Zhuang Yuanlang," Shen Jiahe patted his head, how could he forget Xinrou, her embroidery work is very good, "Her wedding dress is very good, and she won a lot of praise from her wife on the day of her wedding, what do you think?" ”
Shi Xiangyuan thought of that girl, and nodded with satisfaction: "Then please ask Princess Xian to match me, I can't go directly to someone like this." ”
Shen Jiahe laughed: "Okay, I'll write you a letter, you go to Xinrou first, and bring the letter with you when you go, she is very easy to get along with." ”
Shen Jiahe called Bai Ying and instructed her to send paper, ink, pen and inkstone, and then wrote a letter to Yao Xinrou, hoping that she could teach Shi Xiangyuan well.
Shi Xiangyuan took the sealed letterhead and put it away properly: "Thank you so much, I can sleep well at night now." After speaking, he said goodbye and went home, and before leaving, he also took a box of favorite pastries, which made Shen Jiahe cry and laugh.
