Chapter 1214: Crown Suit
ββββ
On the day of Cuijiao's wedding, it rained in Beiping City for most of the day.
It's a pity that they didn't catch up with the good weather, but the Gu family and the Zhao family don't feel unlucky. The drizzle is good compared to the downpour. In recent days, there has been rain in Beiping for several days, the day before the wedding of Cuijiao, it simply rained a heavy thunderstorm, the ancient Zhao family is worried that the wedding can not be held as scheduled, and now the whole ceremony can be completed in the drizzly weather, even the wedding banquet is placed in the nearby restaurant, the guests who go to congratulate the guests do not have to eat in the rain and go smoothly, what do people have to complain about?
I heard that on that day, Zhu Rui specially took leave from his father and mother, went to Ciyun Nunnery to pick up his "biological mother" Jingming Shitai, and went to the Gu family's private house outside the palace together, and received the gift of Gu Dongshan, and said words of blessing, and there were rewards and other things. Master Jing Ming was a monk and did not plan to attend the wedding banquet, so he soon returned to Tsz Yun Nunnery, but Zhu Rui participated in the wedding of Gu Dongshan from beginning to end. With him, the king of Yong'an County, supporting the scene, all the guests at the wedding were polite to Gu Dongshan. None of the maids and servants of the palace who went to congratulate him dared to speak out in front of Cuijiao, for fear of provoking the displeasure of the master, the king of Yong'an County.
Xie Mulin naturally couldn't participate in the wedding banquet between Cuijiao and Gu Dongshan, but Xie Xianzhi's little girl Qingbai, as Cuijiao's brother, went to the Gu family as the eldest brother, as well as Ma Luyao and his wife, Zhang Laohan and Zhang Pozi and his wife, as well as Xiang Tao, who was Cai Laotian's representative, were all invited by Gu Niangzi to walk together. Gu Niangzi went to the Xie family's mansion in Pearl Bridge in the capital in the past, and it is estimated that she had dealt with Cai Laotian and his wife at that time, but it was impossible to know him well. The reason why she used this as an excuse to invite Peach is probably to give face to her new daughter-in-law Cuijiao, and also to give face to Xie Mulin, the owner of Cuijiao and Peach.
Although Gu Niangzi is Zhu Ruixin's housekeeper in the Yong'an County Palace, Xie Mulin is about to become the mistress of the County Palace, that is, her future housewife. Be more respectful, the two have an old friendship, and they will get along better in the future.
Xie Mulin could comprehend the deep meaning of the ancient lady, but he couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart. The thinking of the ancients is very different from that of the modern people. Gu Niangzi used to be a servant in the General's Mansion of Zhuguo, because Miss Xiao Mingzhu left a last word, and Aunt Li (Mrs. Jingming) interceded from the side, so the whole family successfully got out of the country, left the General's Mansion, became a good citizen, and opened a shop, started a business, and lived a very good life. But now that Zhu Rui has been named the king of Yong'an County, he has not yet opened the mansion, but he needs to have a complete set of team of the county king's mansion under his name, and he is about to get married, so he must recruit a few trustworthy people to help take care of the housework. Even if Zhu Rui is not as affectionate as the Xiao family to their family, is the operation of the Gu family really okay?!
Why do they have to go back to Zhu Rui to be servants when they have to live a life of good people who don't have to worry about food and clothing? Could it be that the name of this county palace is really that important?
In the past, Gu Niangzi was a commoner, although she was asked by her friend Aunt Li to run errands for Zhu Rui and send a letter to Xie Mulin, but every time she came to Xie's house, Xie Mulin had to politely invite her to sit and eat tea and talk, and treat her as a guest. And now, she has become Zhu Rui's slave, and even marrying Xie Mulin's maid as her daughter-in-law, she has to look at Xie Mulin's face, and she is always thinking about how to be courteous. The psychological changes before and after this are so obvious, Xie Mulin noticed that there was something wrong, didn't Gu Niangzi feel that there was a problem?
Xie Mulin looked at the people around him and felt that the operation of the Gu family was normal, Cuijiao and her parents even felt that it was more glorious, and they were very happy that this marriage that was supposed to be a servant marrying a good man was transformed into a marriage of a servant marrying a servant, even if she had any opinions in her heart, it was difficult to say, she could only hold it in her heart, secretly depressed.
It's a pity that it's inconvenient for her to see Zhu Rui now, Cuijiao is going to marry Gu Dongshan again, and she can't pass the letter for her, she can't even complain to her fiancΓ© by letter, so she can only resist the impulse and wait for her and Zhu Rui to become husband and wife, and then avoid others and have a good time!
Speaking of which, Zhu Rui seems to have been in Beiping City these days, and he doesn't know what to do. The two haven't seen each other for so many days, will he miss her?
Xie Mulin was bored looking out the window at the slightly sunny sky, when he suddenly heard Qingcheng send a message: "Mrs. called the girl over there, saying that the palace sent the girl's dress over, and asked the girl to try it, whether it fits or not." β
Xie Mulin looked back at Qingcheng with some surprise: "It's already finished?" The embroidery girl of Yanwangfu is fast enough! β
Qingcheng said with a smile: "Look at what the girl said, even if the embroidery lady of Yanwangfu doesn't embroider fast enough, at this point, there is no way to drag it out anymore." The wife asked the girl to try on the clothes, because there were still three days to go before the wedding, and while there was still time, if there was anything inappropriate about the clothes, it was still time to let the embroidery girls in Yanwangfu change it. No matter how late it is, it really won't be able to catch up! β
Xie Mulin thought so, hurriedly tidied up his clothes and hair, and went to the front courtyard to go to the room.
Wen was admiring the princess princess's crown dress that had just been sent by the Yan Wangfu on the big kang under the window. The palace of the king of Yan is fully prepared, and the princess of the county's gown and curtain, together with the seven Zhai crowns, bow clothes, big belts, jade valley gui, jade leather belts and other accessories, are all done, the embroidery is exquisite, and the pearls and jade are shining. Although Wen has seen the appearance of Yan Wangfu when he wears a grand dress a few times, it is the first time to admire the princess's crown dress so closely.
She checked the details of the dress and various accessories very carefully to ensure that there would be no omissions, and when she heard her daughter entering the door, she didn't even turn her head, so she waved her hand and called: "Sister Zhen, come quickly, look at this set of princess princess crown clothes sent by Princess Yan, how exquisite!" It's completely new! β
Xie Mulin looked closer, and also felt that the clothes were gorgeous, and the jewel was still a little dazzling, but it was not so delicate that she was stunned. After all, she has seen a lot of the world, just the royal costumes of the Ming and Qing dynasties have seen a lot of pictures, even if the clothes in front of her are brand new and gorgeous, not inferior to the pictures she has seen, she is still stable.
At this moment, she looked at the huge Qizhai crown and the genuine jewelry decorations on her clothes, and her first thought was: "How much does this dress weigh together?" Am I going to hold it up alone? Don't wait until the wedding day, I have to hold up dozens of kilograms. β
