Chapter 14 Concentric Lotus Knotting
Xue Yulian saw that Xue Dingshan's face was a little gloomy, lest Xue Jinlian and the others make trouble again and annoy him, so she hurriedly said: "Ladies and gentlemen, don't make trouble first, it's not early, and there are serious things to do." He said to Xue Dingshan and Fan Lihua: "Yunfeng, Aunt Ning, you should see each other with another courtesy." As he spoke, he turned around and gently helped Fan Lihua.
Fan Lihua slowly stood up under Xue Yulian's support, lowered her noodles, gently asked Xue Dingshan for ten thousand blessings, and whispered, "Ten thousand blessings for the son." Xue Dingshan also bowed, returned the salute, and said, "We return the salute." ”
After Xue Dingshan and Fan Lihua saluted, Xue Yulian helped Fan Lihua sit down again.
Xue Jinlian came over and pulled out the golden phoenix on Fan Lihua's cloud bun, picked the red peony flower, and then stepped on the stool and pinned it to the hook and loop of the curtain hanging from the window.
Yun Lan used a small gold entwined peony pattern lotus flower to hold a fine yarn and pile up big red pomegranate flowers, and said, "Please come up, uncle." Xue Yulian also said to Xue Dingshan: "Yunfeng, quickly put the flower hairpin on Aunt Ning." Xue Dingshan picked up the pomegranate flower according to his words and re-put the hairpin on the cloud bun for Fan Lihua.
Shuanglan held a plate with a golden begonia flower, on the top of which were placed two acacia cups tied with colorful velvet ropes, and a handful of sheep fat fine porcelain entwined branches and peony pattern holding pots, and the pot contained acacia wine soaked in acacia flowers. said: "Please aunt and young lady together." ”
Xue Jinlian picked up the holding pot, poured two glasses of wine into the Hehuan cup, and said with a smile: "After drinking the Hehuan wine, it will be happy and long." My brother and sister-in-law drank this cup of acacia wine and will be husband and wife from now on, and my sister wishes you harmony and happiness, respect each other, and keep your white head together. ”
Liu Ruyan picked up a glass of Hehuan wine and handed it to Xue Dingshan's hand, and urged with a smile: "Cousin, Sister Ning, let's join together." Xue Jinlian smiled: "Brother, hurry up." Xue Dingshan took the acacia wine. Liu Ruyan handed another cup of Hehuan wine to Fan Lihua and said, "Sister Ning, hurry, it's time to join." Fan Lihua lowered her head and took the wine in her hand.
Xue Yulian said with a smile: "Let's join the wine, there are other things to do after drinking the wine." After a while, Yun Feng will go to accompany the Holy Lord and the ministers. ”
Xue Dingshan and Fan Lihua raised their wine glasses, covered their faces with their sleeves and drank half a glass each. Xue Jinlian took over the two glasses of leftover wine, handed the remaining half cup of Xue Dingshan's drink to Fan Lihua, and handed the remaining half cup of Fan Lihua's drink to Xue Dingshan. The two men took it and drank the remaining half of the wine with their sleeves over their faces. Then, Fan Lihua put the acacia cup in her hand on the begonia plate, and Xue Dingshan put the other acacia cup upside down.
After drinking the wine, Xue Yulian smiled: "It's time to make a tent." Yunfeng, Aunt Ning, come, let's sit inside. With that, he invited Fan Lihua into the inner room. Xue Jinlian also pushed Xue Dingshan to follow.
Xue Yulian said, "Come, Aunt Ning sit down." He helped Fan Lihua to sit down on the right side of the ivory bed, and said to Xue Dingshan: "Yunfeng, you also sit down." Xue Jinlian pulled Xue Dingshan and sat down on the left side of the ivory bed.
Mao led a few maids in, each of them holding a tray in their hands, and the tray contained copper coins engraved with the words "white-headed and old, rich and glorious", as well as five-color grains, five-colored fruits and other things in, and when the two of them sat down, they began to spread the tent.
Mao Shihe led a few maids to walk in front of the ivory bed, and at the same time scattered the contents of the tray behind Xue Dingshan and Fan Lihua, who were sitting on the edge of the bed, and said with words in his mouth:
"Spread the tent east, the curtain is deep and the candle shadow is red. The good atmosphere is lush and long, and the painting hall is a spring breeze every day.
Sprinkle the west of the tent, and the brocade tassels hang down at the four corners. When you open it, you will see Chang'e's face, but you will lose but Xianlang will catch the branches.
Spread the tent south, so happy and delayed. The cool moon is good, the courtyard is cool, and the double embroidered belt is suitable for men.
Spread the tent north, and relish a little between the eyebrows. The hibiscus tent warms the spring night, and Yue'e invites the guests of the Toad Palace.
On the tent, the mandarin ducks were crossed into twos. From now on, I have a good dream of Ye Wei Xiong, and I see the frog beads in the palm.
In the tent, a pair of jade hibiscus in the moon. It's like meeting a goddess tonight, and the red clouds are surrounded by Wu Feng.
Under the tent, see the Golden Illumination Society. Tonight's auspicious dream will follow, and the price of the male will be set in the coming year.
Before the tent is cast, the heaviness is neither fog nor smoke. Xiangli Jin Qi is faintly reflected, and Wen Xiao meets Cailuan Immortal today.
After the tent was sold, the husband and wife were in harmony and kept for a long time. Husbands and wives have always been with each other, and they have respected each other and shared their heads. ”
After the tent was finished, Mao led the maids to salute again, and said: "Congratulations to the son, the young lady will add a noble son early, and grow old together." ”
Xue Yulian smiled: "Okay, thank you for your hard work." The eldest mother has been tired for several days, and tomorrow my mother will definitely have a lot of thanks. Please go back and rest first. I'll do the rest here. Mao agreed and said, "Auntie and grandmother will tie their hair for them, and I'll leave first." So saying, he led the maids and servants to withdraw.
Xue Yulian sent the Mao family away, and then ordered: "Xia He, bring the newcomer's rice." Xia He hurriedly used a gold-painted lotus plate to prepare the meal. Xue Yulian personally fed Xue Dingshan and Fan Lihua three mouthfuls of rice to show the meaning of the husband and wife sharing joys and sorrows.
He also commanded: "Yulan, bring the scissors I asked you to prepare yesterday." ”
"Yes." Yulan agreed, and brought over a golden lotus plate, on which was placed a small brand new gold scissors with red threads, and a small and delicate carved lacquer filled gold brocade box.
Xue Yulian said to Xue Dingshan: "Yunfeng, come and sit down." Xue Dingshan stood up and sat down on the embroidery pier next to the dresser. Xue Yulian first plucked the hosta on the crown of the seven beams of Xue Dingshan, took off his crown of the seven beams of Xuanjin, untied the gold forehead, opened his bun and cut off a strand of hair with scissors, and put it in the lotus plate. Then he re-tied his hair in a bun, tied his forehead and put the seven-beam crown on.
Xue Yulian turned around and came to Fan Lihua's side again, untied a strand of cloud bun on her sideburns, and cut off a strand of hair from her sideburns and put it in the lotus plate. Put down the scissors and re-tie Fan Lihua's bun.
Xue Yulian picked up the two strands of Xue Dingshan and Fan Lihua's hair that she had just cut, and tied a concentric wishful knot together, tied it with a strand of red silk thread, put it in the carved lacquer brocade box, and locked the lid of the box with a small and delicate small gold lock. turned around and said to Fan Lihua: "Aunt Ning, you can take it well, this is the voucher for you and Yunfeng." I put all the controls of Yun Feng's life in your hands. As he spoke, he held it with both hands and handed the brocade box to Fan Lihua. Fan Lihua's face flushed slightly, and she took the brocade box from Xue Yulian's hand, turned around and handed it to Yun Lan. Yun Lan took the brocade box with both hands, carefully held it to the side of the dresser, and put it in Fan Lihua's makeup.
