Chapter 14: The Wedding Dress
Today, when he crossed the bridge, I looked at his cold and gloomy face, and boldly handed him the sugar gourd that A-Niang made for me.
"You are leading these yin errands every day, it is very hard, my aunt, I made a lot of sugar gourds today, and I will give you a string."
He raised his ink-like eyes, and a look of astonishment flashed in his eyes: "I don't like sweets!" ”
As soon as I heard this, I brought the sugar gourd to his lips, and it seemed to me the best thing in the world, and I don't think anyone would like it after tasting it.
"The underworld is too bitter, eat something sweet, and life will be better!" My aunt always said that to me.
He was stunned for a moment, but really stretched out his hand, took the sugar gourd, and thanked me.
I looked at his distant back and the string of bright red sugar gourds, and couldn't help but smile.
"Yan'er, Yan'er!"
In the distance, on the other side of the bridge, Ah Niang was calling me home, I answered, jumped off the bridge railing, the city lord of Xudu, turned his head sideways, glanced at me, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
This is the first time I have seen him smile, it is like a spring breeze, and like the morning sun, very bright.
And I, too, smiled sweetly at him, and immediately turned around and ran towards Meng Zhuang.
It's just that this road back to Mengzhuang seems to be far, far away, so far that I seem to have to walk for a lifetime, and I can't go home.
And at the gate of the village, A-Niang was standing there in the distance, waving and smiling at me.
"Auntie? Auntie? I muttered.
"Miss Xiyan? Sunset girl? ”
I was calling A-Niang, but I vaguely heard Bai Qing calling me, his voice getting closer and clearer.
"Miss Sunset?"
Finally, I slowly opened my eyes and found Bai Qing standing on the edge of the bed.
Seeing that I was awake, he hurriedly took a step back and leaned over slightly.
"What's wrong, Bai Qing?" I yawned, rubbed my eyes, and sat up.
"Girl, Your Highness has ordered someone to bring a wedding dress, after you have tried it, let's have dinner." Bai Qing said to me very respectfully.
"Dinner?" When I heard this, I subconsciously glanced at the position of the window, and it turned out that all the light shining in was the beam of the lantern.
I slept until dark, I rubbed my temples and hurriedly got up.
However, when I got up, my back was obviously sore.
"Miss Xiyan, look, isn't this wedding dress extremely beautiful?" Bai Qing said and helped me to the edge of the round table.
On this table was a silver tray, and a wedding dress was placed on the plate, neatly folded.
Bai Qing helped, carefully took the wedding dress, spread it out, and showed it to me.
The red of the wedding dress is dazzling, the neckline and cuffs of the wedding dress have extremely delicate textures, and the main picture of the wedding dress is a mandarin duck playing in the water, with gold threads hooked and edged, which looks extremely luxurious.
And, the hem of this wedding dress is swaying and mopping the floor, and there is dignity in the luxury,
"Also, the ornaments will be sent tomorrow morning for the girl to see." Bai Qing said, and asked me to try this wedding dress.
But I didn't reach out to pick it up, but just said to Bai Qing: "Look, it's suitable, put it away." ”
"Miss Xiyan, you better give it a try, if it doesn't fit, you can change it again?" Bai Qing looked at me and saw that I didn't care about this wedding dress so much, and the expression on his face was also a little lonely.
"No need." I know my size, and His Highness has carefully prepared it, and it should be exactly the same.
Bai Qing saw that I was so persistent, so she had no choice but to put away the wedding dress.
However, I still can't help but say a few words for His Royal Highness the Prince. 510 Literature
"Miss Xiyan, this wedding dress was prepared by His Royal Highness before going to Yaozhou, this pattern was drawn by His Royal Highness himself, and a stitch and thread were sewn by the best embroidery lady in the palace."
I nodded silently, but I didn't know what to respond.
Bai Qing received the wedding dress into the cabinet on the side, and then passed the meal.
I'm full of sleep and food, and my appetite is still good.
These big meat dishes can be eaten at a basic time.
Bai Qing stood aside, waiting for the soup.
I motioned for Bai Qing to sit down and eat, and he said that he had eaten it, but seeing me gobbling it up, he pursed his lips and smiled.
"Girl, you look so thin, I didn't expect your appetite to be really good." Bai Qing said, and motioned for me to drink soup.
I took a sip and felt fishy and spit it out.
"What kind of soup is this?" I wiped the corners of my mouth with a cloth.
Bai Qing hurriedly glanced at the soup: "Miss Xiyan, this is the best Taihu Lake fish, boiled fish soup, which also adds several medicinal herbs for health preservation." ”
"Bai Qing, I don't eat fish." I shook my head at Bai Qing.
When Bai Qing heard this, he hurriedly apologized, and then removed the fish soup and replaced it with chicken soup.
On the back of my hand, there were still some red spots that quickly appeared, but it was fine.
"Miss Xiyan, the auspicious day in the palace has been set, just two days later." Bai Qing said and paused: "Then from tomorrow, you will have to fast and bathe, smoke incense, and there will be an aunt in the palace to teach you the rules." ”
"Okay." I replied casually, and in my mind, I didn't think I would stay in the palace for long.
After everything is taken care of, if the senior brother is willing to go with me, then I will go back to the village with him.
This world is complicated and sinister, which pole is the village peaceful?
I'm tired of this, and it's best to go back and live in peace.
After dinner, the two officials brought the bath tub.
In this bathtub, there are also lily petals, Bai Qing said, these lily petals can calm the nerves and help me sleep.
However, in my current situation, I can sleep very well without these lily petals.
Bai Qing and the others retreated, so I took off my clothes and soaked in this warm water.
When I closed my eyes, I felt very comfortable, and the hot water was very relieving.
It's just that, staring at the steaming water, in my mind, the soup room of Linfu will come to mind.
I immediately shook my head vigorously, trying not to think about it, and after washing, I hurriedly got up and changed into my bedclothes.
Bai Qing had been waiting outside the door for a long time, and as soon as I opened the door, he immediately asked the official envoy to carry the hot water away.
"Girl, these books were sent by His Royal Highness, I'm afraid that the girl will be bored." Bai Qing said, and ordered another official envoy to come in with a large pile of books.
I took a look, and it was mostly anecdotes.
In the past, I loved to watch it, but now, I don't have such a mind anymore.
"Girl, Your Highness has said it, and you can also invite a gentleman to come and tell you a story." Bai Qing saw that I was not interested, so he added.
"No need, I've been sleepy these days, and I can't listen to this." I said that, and yawned to myself.
I feel that it is a little "excessive", after all, I didn't wake up until dark.
"Then the girl will rest, and if it is boring, shall we go to the market?" Bai Qing looked at me, for fear that I would feel bored and depressed.
