The clothes on my back were wet with wet hair, and Xiaomi put down the ointment in her hand and found a dry cloth to help me wipe my hair.

"I have a lifelong friendship with her."

"Isn't Xia Mei Murong's maid? How could you get involved with Miss? ”

I looked at the sneaky people outside the window and smiled and said, "She helped me kill someone."

Xiaomi's hand suddenly exerted force, which made my scalp hurt, and his tone revealed disbelief: "She looks like that, dare to kill someone?"

I turned around and took the cloth from Xiaomi's hand, put my hair in front of me and wiped it clean one by one, I lowered my head and smiled wickedly at the corners of my mouth.

"Why don't you dare? People, you can do anything. ”

After listening to what I said, Xiaomi nodded thoughtfully, pulled the clothes on his body, wiped the water on his hands, and turned to clean up the wooden barrel over there.

I opened the window in front of me and let the cold wind blow in from outside, and my hair, which was not completely dry, was blown and whipped in my face.

"Miss, it's windy, and it's easy to get cold!"

Xiaomi heard the sudden louder wind and hurriedly ran over to close the window. When she reached out and grabbed the window, two maids not far away walked over from Murong's courtyard.

"I heard that today Wan Gongzi personally came to the door with a dowry gift!"

"Yes, Master Wan is handsome and chic, graceful, and makes people envy Miss Murong."

The little maid with a foolish smile on her face held her face and said to her companion: "The marriage of men and women, according to the order of the parents, was matched by the matchmaker, and I think that the door is right, I heard that the two families have exchanged Geng stickers!"

Millet looked at me, whose face was dark, and finally put her hand down, and stood behind me listening to the two of them.

"Huh? I heard that Wan Gongzi has been here several times, and today it seems that he wants to settle the family affairs like this. ”

Xiaomi whispered behind me: "Before the marriage, you must discuss the marriage, the son of the Wan family has come so many times, and he must have already mentioned the marriage."

I looked back at Xiaomi: "Hmm. What's left next? ”

"After the marriage, the Wanjia will carry the agreed gifts to our Mufu in a bar box, and at the same time, Mufu also needs to have a return gift."

"Well, go ahead." I might be able to do something with these dowry or return gifts.

"According to the number of rites, most of the return gifts are gold groups, oil bags and embroidery made by Murong himself."

I listened to Xiaomi's words in one breath, and my fingers gently knocked on the window: "Xiaomi, how do you know about getting married?"

"I've been around the bride for a while."

"Well, then the next step, isn't it time for Mufu to prepare the dowry for marriage?"

"Hmm."

Watching the two maids walk farther and farther, I stretched out my long arms, closed the wide open window, cut off the cold wind whistling outside, and turned back to sit down in my chair.

"My sister is getting married, I'm a sister, why should I prepare a big gift?"

Millet didn't know why, and looked at me with round eyes: "What? Miss still wants to prepare a big gift for her? ”

"What? My sister can't say nothing, right? ”

Xiaomi saw the banter in my eyes, and there was a hint of clarity in my eyes.

"You go out today to inquire about what day it is."

"Miss mean, please eat and drink on the day of your wedding?"

I leaned back in my chair and nodded, waiting for Murong to come to the door in person.

Before the good day, the groom should also hold the red paper "Zhi" to invite the elders, relatives and friends to eat and drink, and the elders should write the word "know" under their names.

Before the good day, the custom of waiting for the husband and to be married, the parents of both sides invited their sons and daughters to eat buns, cockles, elbows, chestnuts, and lotus seeds, and asked for the "five sons to Dengke" color head.

Three or five days before the good day, Wanjia will also send Mufu "sedan chair", generally two geese, one meat, two fish, etc.

With that in mind, I still have a few days to prepare for my gift.

"Xiaomi, you just said that Murong needs to embroider an embroidery by himself?"

"Yes."

My eyes lit up, and I sat up from my chair, thinking about what I was going to give my sister. I must let her marry in style and make her famous in the city!

"Okay, I got it."

The fist in my sleeve clenched tightly, the heartbeat in my chest quickened with excitement, and now it was time for me to fight back.

The cold light under my eyes flashed, like a thousand years of ice, piercing deep into my flesh and blood, and only when the great revenge was avenged, this thorn would be pulled out of my body.

"Miss, what's wrong? Is the wound hurting again? ”

"Help me prepare the things I need for my embroidery, and remember not to let others find out."

Xiaomi didn't ask much, just nodded in response.

If you want to be quieter and colder than my side, Murong's courtyard can be described as full of people, and the noisy sound is almost deafening.

Ye stood beside Murong happily, holding Murong's hand affectionately, with a smile at the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.

"Rong'er, you are going to be a bride, you have to pay attention now, don't be unmeasured."

Murong was even more happy, there were several neat and tidy big boxes in the courtyard, these were all dowry gifts from her brother Wanyang!

Fingers stroked the mouthful of the box, Wan Yang's handsome face flashed in his eyes, and Murong asked happily, "Mother, what dowry do you want to prepare for me?"

"Don't worry, my mother won't treat you badly, after all, my daughter is married, and she has to marry in style."

Murong Chun's face was full of light, and his upward eyes revealed triumph all the time.

"Mother, I'll go out for a walk, and I'll have to worry about my mother to help me with the rest."

Aunt Liu whispered something in Ye's ear, and the smile on Ye's face slowly retracted, and raised her hand to greet Murong back.

"Rong'er, come here."

Murong, who was about to leave the courtyard, heard her mother calling her to go back, turned around and walked back towards the Ye family.

"What's wrong Mother?"

"You come in and talk." Yip's Road.

Murong reluctantly followed Ye into the house, and after Ye entered the door, he sat straight on the chair and began to drink tea, without saying a word.

"Second Miss, our Mufu needs to return the gift to Wanjia."

Murong looked at his round nails with a nonchagrant face: "What, can't our Mufu even get a return gift?"

Aunt Liu's face was embarrassed: "That's not it, it's just this gift...... Need a piece of embroidery embroidered by the second lady herself. ”

"What? Let me embroider something? Are my hands for embroidering those flowers and plants? ”

Murong raised his white onion fingers and poked them straight into Aunt Liu's eyes, and said with words in his mouth.

"Murong, what did I just tell you?"

Ye slapped the teacup on the table, and the tea in the teacup splashed out, and a few drops splashed on Ye's clothes, and the fluffy fur became wisps and wisps, which made people look very ugly.

"Mother! You know I don't know those things! ”

"If you don't, just learn it from me!"

Murong muttered dissatisfiedly: "Why do you have to go and embroider in person, find someone to help me soon......"

"You're ......!"

Seeing that the Ye family was about to scold Murong again, at this time, Aunt Liu quickly stepped forward and grabbed Ye's arm: "Madam, what the second lady said is not impossible."

"What do you mean?"

"Since the second miss doesn't want to embroider the embroidery by herself, then let's secretly find someone for the young lady and help the second miss complete the embroidery."

Ye frowned and looked at Aunt Liu: "But this is a major wedding event, and it is not appropriate to find someone to embroider this embroidery on your behalf."

Aunt Liu whispered in Ye's ear and said someone, and Ye praised him repeatedly.

"Good! That's it! ”

Murong watched the movements of the two and asked Ye in confusion: "Mother, what is so decided?"

"Aunt Liu, tell Rong'er what you need to do to get married!"

Aunt Liu lowered her eyebrows and watched Ye walk out of the room: "Yes, madam."

"Miss, the old slave will tell you what you need to do to get married, right?"

Murong waved his hand impatiently, and sat on the chair that Ye had just sat on: "Talk about it, Miss Ben listen!"

"Yes. Now that you and Wan Gongzi have been married, in addition to preparing a return gift, Mrs. Mufu here will help you prepare a dowry. ”

"Well, I know, talk about something else."

"Wanjia will come to Mufu to move the dowry, and the woman will put the dowry in the hall for people to watch, called "look at the dowry". Here the lady will arrange it. ”

"Hmm." Murong replied to Aunt Liu casually in all kinds of boredom.

The clothes are self-scented with sandalwood, and several silver dollars are placed at the bottom of the box, commonly known as "pressing box money". The dowry is moved to the man and displayed in the hall for people to see, also called "watching the dowry". The grandmother takes the woman's key bag and takes the key to open the box. ”

Aunt Liu didn't care about Murong's reaction, she just had to explain the matter of marriage to Murong clearly, as for whether Murong could understand it or not, it was her own business.

"Aunt Liu, how long will it take to finish?"

Murong listened to Aunt Liu say this, lying on the table with his eyes closed, irritable.

"And a few more, not more."

Aunt Liu's expression was calm, but her eyes showed extreme disgust.

"The bride will use five-color cotton yarn to open the noodles for the lady, the guests are happy to eat the noodle soup fruit, and wait until the good day when the sedan chair is coming, Mufu will set off a cannon to welcome the sedan chair, and then cover the door to "block the sedan chair door", and start opening the door after stuffing the red envelope. ”

"Whew...... Whew......"

Murong on the table heard the sound of steady breathing, and Aunt Liu, who was dry-mouthed, flashed a haze in her eyes, and her nails were deeply embedded in her palms.

"Miss? Miss? Wake up! We still have some left unfinished. ”

Aunt Liu shouted a few times, saw that Murong had not moved for a long time, and tiptoed to Murong.

A look of madness burst out on his haggard face at this moment, and the two hands that were originally hanging by his side trembled and raised, gradually reaching out to the sleeping Murong.

All the noise outside the house was left behind by Aunt Liu, and now there was only Murong in front of her eyes, and her dull eyes reflected Murong's face.

There was only the sound of Murong's breathing in the room, steady and long, Aunt Liu's hand almost touched Murong's slender neck, as long as she used a little force, Aunt Liu could choke her lifeline.

"Die! Wicked people like you don't deserve to live! ”
