303-She's all good, if he is affectionate
Facing his fourth brother's stunnedness, a wry smile rose at the corner of Yinxiang's mouth, "You didn't expect it, right?" But the fifth brother at least told me clearly, what about the others? Fourth brother, what is your own house like, and who are my sisters-in-law thinking about? Do you dare to say that you know everything in your heart? ”
Yinzhen's face was already blue, and he didn't know how to answer Yinxiang's questions, so he had to say stiffly, "Is it time for you to talk to me about these things?" Didn't we come to see you for a dowry? How did you get all this? ”
"Fourth brother, didn't you laugh at me just now?" Yinxiang waved his hand to stop Yinzhen who wanted to explain, "I know you were joking." ¥♀ 8 ¥ ♀ Eight ¥ ♀ Read ¥ ♀ Book, 2≠3o◆ But it's really the only thing I can do for her now, maybe she'll never know, but I still hope that if she hears about it from someone else's mouth one day, it will soothe her sadness a little bit in the future. ”
Yin Zhen really couldn't listen to Yin Xiang speak like this, so he interrupted him, "How could she be sad?" And how can you make her sad? You believe in the fourth brother, the fourth brother will not be mistaken, you will definitely live well. ”
Yinxiang was about to speak, but he caught a glimpse of Hailiang trotting closer.
Hailiang first asked the two elder brothers to say goodbye, and then reported to Yin Xiangyu, "Master, Fujin's dowry has arrived at the door." ”
"Good. Open the middle door. Yinxiang commanded.
Hailiang hit a thousand responses, and there was a smoke that ran to the gate to spread the word.
Yinxiang turned to look at Yinzhen, "Fourth brother, I lost my words just now." Don't take it to heart. ”
Yinzhen knew that Yinxiang was referring to the two sentences he said about his family, and immediately said that it was okay, "It's okay." You're telling the truth, and a lot of the time, I'm just deceiving myself. But since it's all said here, I also want to warn you, don't be deaf, dumb, don't be a housekeeper. ”
Seeing that Yinxiang was a little puzzled, Yinzhen explained, "Since you love Chongzhaojia, you have to believe her, and the affairs of the inner house will be left to her to take care of, even if there are some turmoil, you don't have to pay attention to it, as long as you stand on your side of Fujin and come out to support her when she needs you." ”
Yinxiang was stunned when he heard this, these common words were said by Yinzhen's cold face, how could it make people feel so awkward. Yinxiang hurriedly said that he understood and wrote it down, and secretly begged Yinzhen not to say any more, and then diverted the topic, and pulled Yinzhen to stand at the bottom of the stairs with himself, waiting for someone to bring the dowry in. "Fourth brother, have you seen my fourth sister-in-law's dowry?"
Yin Zhen thought for a while before replying, "Except for a few pieces of jewelry that she often wears, I've only seen the rest on the gift list." Thinking back to the time of his wedding, Yinzhen only remembers those cumbersome etiquettes and the joy that sounded for almost a whole day.
In a few moments, there were officials of the Ministry of Rites who were in charge of the wedding ceremony of the prince, and the bride who escorted the dowry walked into the main courtyard of Baylor Mansion in turn, followed by the porters carrying the dowry.
Although the officials of the Ministry of Rites heard that Yinxiang was in the main courtyard, they didn't expect that Yinxiang would pull Yinzhen to accompany him, and the two princes were still standing outside and waiting, so they had to hurriedly come forward to ask for peace. "The two Belle Lords will wait, and the next official will accuse them."
Yinxiang's face was already replaced with a kind smile, and he said weakly, "Excuse me." The marriage envoy has worked hard all the way, and there is a lot of work. ”
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be." The wedding envoy of the Ministry of Rites thanked Yinxiang while secretly looking at Yinzhen behind him with his eyes. "Thirteen Baylor is gracious."
Everyone knows that the thirteenth elder brother has a kind personality, and now he has no mother's support, so the marriage envoy of this Ministry of Rites was originally a little low-minded and planned to deal with errands. But now that he sees Yinzhen here, he has to restrain his laziness and become respectful.
Yin Zhen's gaze swept over the face of the wedding envoy of the Ministry of Rites, and said lightly, "Today is the day of the dowry of the Thirteenth Fujin, and the marriage envoy has done his best, and it is indeed hard." ”
The marriage envoy of the Ministry of Rites was already weak-hearted, and when Yinzhen looked at it like this, he almost knelt down for the two elder brothers with a weak leg and stomach, and took a small step back to stabilize himself. "Four Baylor is serious. The lower officials should do it. ”
"Let's get started." Although Yin Zhen has not personally seen his Fujin dowry, he still understands the general etiquette process.
The marriage envoy of the Ministry of Rites did not dare to have any objections, and bowed to the two elder brothers, only then did he turn around and sing a set of happy words about the marriage of Yinxiang and Niansheng formulated by the Ministry of Rites, and then announced the official start of the ceremony.
The joy song started, the aristocratic Fu Jin, who served as the bride, slowly walked through the brocade box containing the dowry, the color box, the cage, and the porter standing aside opened the same when the bride raised her hand before each dowry, and the bride read out the name of the dowry according to the gift list, and did not close the lid after opening.
Yinxiang looked at it at the beginning, and felt festive and interesting at first, but then felt a little strange, and couldn't help but whisper to Yinzhen behind him, "Fourth brother, what are they doing here?" Why is it all open? ”
The corners of Yin Zhen's mouth were slightly raised, "This is called a dowry, which is specially used to show off your rich marriage to everyone, and it is also an opportunity to praise people." ”
"Oh!" Yinxiang nodded with a long voice, with a long and insightful expression. "It's just to show off your wealth."
"Ahem......"
"Fourth brother, are you okay?" Yinxiang asked, but he didn't look back at Yinzhen, just stared at Niansheng's dowry.
"It's fine." Yin Zhen suddenly felt that his thirteenth brother had not slipped away sometimes compared to the tenth brother.
"Fourth brother, look at that, it's golden, it's worth a lot of silver, right?" "Your brother, look at that, that one is coral, right?"
Yinzhen's ears have not been clean until the dowry list of Nian Sheng is read, Yinxiang chatters around him like a child, and his excitement is overflowing. "I said you're a Baylor too, don't always look like you've never seen the world, okay? Haven't you ever seen a pearl? Still not wearing good clothes? Why is it so good for you? In the end, Yinzhen couldn't help it, and he didn't care if it would sweep away Yinxiang's happiness, so he just opened his mouth to teach a lesson.
Yinxiang cares all about it, and still does his own thing. "Fourth brother, look at it, look at it! That's Shu brocade, right? Marhan can, marry his daughter and put in all this kind of tribute! ”
Yinzhen knew that he had no peaceful birthday today, so he was too lazy to argue with him about anything, and whatever Yinxiang said, he all hummed and responded, and even dragged himself by Yinxiang to wander around the dowry for a while.
Fortunately, Yinxiang was completely immersed in joy, and he didn't care what Yinzhen said or answered, he just needed someone to share his joy right now.
After all the ceremonies were over, the steward of Baylor Mansion and Hai Liang led people to carry the dowry down and check it into the warehouse one by one.
The wedding envoy of the Ministry of Rites stepped forward to congratulate him again, and resigned by the way.
After a long day of excitement, the dowry ceremony is really over.
Yinxiang is still living in the palace tonight, and he bowed to the emperor in the palace tomorrow morning, and it is the wedding.
Yinzhen naturally wanted to go back to his house, so the two brothers went together.
That night, Yinxiang slept very deeply, and he didn't even have a dream.
That night, I almost didn't sleep all night, tossing and turning in bed, and it was easy to be confused for a while, and I would soon be disturbed and awakened by all kinds of strange dreams.
Hearing the movement, the hanging toad got out of bed, lit the lamp, walked to his young lady's bed, and whispered through the tent, "Miss, miss? ”
Nian Sheng answered in a daze, then opened his eyes, stood up and reached out to open the tent, "Why are you up?" ”
"When the slave hears that you are not sleeping well, she gets up and looks." The hanging toad put down the lamp as he spoke, and turned to pour water for Niansheng to drink. "Slave and maid, pour you a glass of water to drink. I didn't see you eat anything at night, did you have a hungry stomach? Slaves and maids always say that if this belly is so empty, they will panic when they dream at night. ”
Nian Sheng smiled, and sat up on the bed. "Listen to them. That's just an excuse for them to be hungry at night and eat supper. ”
The hanging toad came over with the water and handed it to Nian Sheng, "Then what's wrong with you?" Thinking that he was going to marry the thirteenth master at dawn, he couldn't sleep beautifully? Asked with a smile.
Nian Sheng took the water and held it in his hand without drinking it, and raised his head to signal the hanging toad to sit down.
"You drink some water first, and the slave puts the cup back, and then comes back." The hanging toad persuaded Nian Sheng.
Nian Sheng took two sips and returned the cup to the hanging toad.
The hanging toad came back with the cup, took off his shoes and sat in Niansheng's bed, and the two of them sat side by side as they did when they were children. "Miss, are you afraid of something?" Hanging Toad finally asked the doubts in his heart.
Niansheng was playing with his fingers around the tips of the toad's hair suddenly, and then said softly as if nothing happened, "Afraid? What am I afraid of? Who am I? Mega Thoughts! What can I be afraid of? ”
Hanging Toad sighed softly, she knew her own young lady too well, since she was a child, the more scared she was, the harder her mouth often became, but this time, she didn't know very well what her young lady was afraid of. "Are you worried that Miss Fucha, or Miss Nara, will compete with you for favor in the future and thin Lord Belle's favor for you?"
A smile appeared on Niansheng's face, a self-deprecating smile, "What's there to worry about." The human heart is so big, and the people who can be stuffed into it are limited in what they can stuff. Where there should only be one person standing, you have to squeeze three of them alive, what do you think is this? ”
"But isn't Lord Belle the most in love with you?" Hanging Toad hurriedly asked.
Niansheng looked at this maid who had grown up with her since she was a child, and her heart was a little sour for a while, and there were some indescribable things, so that for a while, she didn't know how to explain this matter to Hanging Toad.
