Chapter 20 This is the crown of the monarch and the phoenix

[Phoenix crown Xia Wei] wears a phoenix crown for the king's head and spreads ten miles of red makeup.

At four o'clock in the morning Su Liuyin was dragged up by the apricot with panda eyes.

"Miss, today is your big day, you can't miss the auspicious time..."Su Liuyin half-closed her eyes, sitting on the landscape embroidery pier and listening to Xing'er's nagging!

"Xing'er, Miss can get up."

Aunt Qing pushed open the red sandalwood door, and saw that Su Liuyin was already sitting on the dresser in the southwest corner, so she stepped back and let Shen Qingying enter the house first.

Xing'er folded her hands in her lower abdomen, and bent her knees slightly and said, "Madame Wanfu"! He stepped aside.

Qu'er also followed Aunt Qing into the house, and after saluting, she retreated to a place with Xing'er!

Su Liuyin also got up and saluted Shen Qingying: "Mother, why did you get up so early.....

Shen Qingying smiled slightly, took Su Liuyin's hand and said, "Today is our Yin'er's big day, and my mother must not be lazy."

"Sit down, our Yin'er is beautiful, and we must be the most beautiful bride today! “

Shen Qingying said and gently spread Su Liuyin's long cloudy hair.

Aunt Qing beside her had respectfully handed over the white comb.

"White as Qiong Yao, slippery like moss, with the comb accompanied by the mirror to whisk the dust."

The white comb gently swept her soft and flowing hair, and Shen Qingying said softly: "One comb to the head, two to the end, three to the white hair and eyebrows, our Yin'er is going to get married......"

Shen Qingying has carefully coiled Su Liuyin's long blue and black hair behind her, and the rhombic bronze mirror reflects the hibiscus moon appearance of Shen Qingying and Su Liuyin, a pair of Tianzi mother and daughter!

After tossing and turning, she got up an hour early today, and Shen Qingying was already a little tired, and gently stroked her forehead and said, "My mother is getting older, and she is a little powerless."

Aunt Qing hurriedly took the white comb and said, "Madame, rest first, let the old slave come." As he spoke, he glanced at Xing'er and Qu'er behind him. They nodded knowingly.

Su Liuyin was about to get up to greet her, but Shen Qingying gently patted her shoulder to show that it was okay.

Then he walked slowly to the fragrant wood table in the middle of the room, and then sat on the rose chair, looking at Su Liuyin, who was dressing in the southwest corner.

Xing'er and Qu'er walked forward quickly, bringing toiletries, and they both wore festive tuan-patterned long skirts today, combed in double-ring buns.

"Aunt Qing, Xiao Dongzi has arrived!" Wufu shouted outside the door.

Aunt Qing answered, went to open the door, and led a young boy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a white face, and a smart and clever boy.

"Isn't this the child of Zhang Rusheng next door?" Su Liuyin said with a smile.

"The peach is dying, scorching its bloom. The son is home, and it is appropriate for him to live in his room. Sister, Xiao Dongzi and his father and mother bless you together! Xiao Dongzi turned a pair of big smart eyes, although he was the head of the horn, he was very smart.

"Miss, please sit on the bed now, so that you can sit north and face south!" Aunt Qing smiled and held the woman's hand in front of the mirror and said.

Su Liuyin was naturally happy, and thought to herself: It seems that this Aunt Qing is really considerate, she is afraid that I will be tired and unable to get on the sedan chair, so I want to rest for a while! He walked over and lay down on the bed with a comfortable face.

"Yin'er, get up! This opening face is a major event in a woman's life, don't miss the time! I don't know when Shen Qingying has come to her, and said with a gentle smile.

Su Liuyin sat up helplessly, and when she saw Shen Qingying holding a thin twine in her hand, she couldn't help but tremble: This face is not going to strangle me with this! Seeing her smile so brightly, Su Liuyin panicked inexplicably: This can't be because she found out that she is not her biological daughter, and she wants to kill people! I suddenly felt sleepy and woke up most of the time.

Shen Qingying held a long thread in his hand, carefully tied the two ends together and tied a knot, crossed several times, and formed a "scissors" shape, then pulled it in the middle with one hand, and tied the two ends to the thumb and index finger of the other hand to form a crossed triangle.

Xiao Dongzi raised his immature little hand, and flicked it three times in the middle of the crossed triangle, Shen Qingying's lips opened lightly, and his mouth whispered gently: "Respect the parents of heaven and earth, wish the husband and wife harmony, and play the children and grandchildren."

Xiao Dongzi flicked the left, middle and right three times in a serious manner, and Shen Qingying muttered again: "The left bullet gives birth to a noble son early, the middle bullet is diligent and thrifty, and the right bullet is white-headed until he is old!" ”

Su Liuyin relieved her heart at this time, it seemed that she didn't want this girl's life, and she could only look at it with a puzzled face.

If there is an occasion with a little boy, the action of playing three times is carried out by the little boy, and the person who opens the face is responsible for holding the line and chanting.

Shen Qingying moved this triangle towards Su Liuyin and said with a smile: "Yin'er raised her face!" ”

Su Liuyin asked with a frightened face, "Mother, what are you doing here?" ”

Aunt Qing on the side said with a smile: "Miss, the old slave has seen the old lady open her face for the lady, but I didn't expect to have the honor to see the lady open your face for the young lady today!" This woman can only open her face once in her life, and if she gets divorced and remarried, she can't open her face again! Phew, what kind of bad luck is the old slave saying! The slap mouth! Aunt Qing hurriedly slapped her mouth a few times with her hand and said, "After Miss opens her face, your skin will be smoother and more beautiful, Miss must be the most beautiful bride!" ”

Xing'er and Qu'er on the side each held a lantern in their hands, and listened to Aunt Qing with a serious face, and they saw it for the first time.

"Does it hurt?" Su Liuyin said that she only felt a little hot feeling on her face, and there was no pain, and she felt a little comfortable when she felt it, but it felt a little like being in a beauty salon. The cheeks, forehead, eyebrows, and sideburns were touched by the warm twine.

"Look, Miss! Is it more beautiful now? Aunt Qing smiled and posed a bronze mirror in front of her.

It turned out that it was just to remove the cold hair on her face and trim her eyebrows a little, Su Liuyin thought that if she went to sell eyebrow trimming knives, she would be sought after by this Gusu woman!

"Okay, my mother's yellow-haired girl has become a bride today!" Shen Qingying smiled and touched her forehead with his hand.

Su Liuyin raised her eyes and smiled stupidly, but it was all kinds of style.

"Xiao Dongzi, it's hard for you to get up so early today, hurry up and buy a few candy people to eat!" Shen Qingying smiled and put a heavy money bag in his hand, his eyes full of tenderness.

Xiao Dongzi took the money bag and said with a smile: "Mrs. Xie, Miss, Xiao Dongzi is leaving!" ”

Su Liuyin looked at the cute face of this little guy, and remembered her parents, she was also raised from a very young child, and now she is getting married in another world, I don't know what happened to them, and she can't go back, and she suddenly feels a little sad.

"What's wrong with Yin'er? On this happy day, everyone up and down the house is happy and festive, so let's throw away all the unpleasant things! Shen Qingying gently shook her hand, then turned to Aunt Qing and said, "The next thing will be handed over to you, this guest is coming, I want to go out to greet her!" ”

Aunt Qing said in a blessing: "Madam, don't worry! The old slave will live up to your trust! ”

After Shen Qingying left, Aunt Qing helped Su Liuyin to come to the dresser again, and then began to dress up.

Apricot holds a tray of sunflower lacquer with a black lacquer powder box on the side of the case. Qu Er picked up two black lacquer powder boxes, gently opened them, and contained rouge, eyebrow delicacy, makeup powder and lip grease, and gently took out a small bottle from her waist, which was the apricot blossom dew she picked in Dongmeng Garden this morning.

Aunt Qing then mixed the rouge with lead powder into a color, turning it into sandalwood (pink), and then gently rubbed it on Su Liuyin's cheeks. It is then applied to the entire face for a more even and uniform complexion.

After it fits her face, Aunt Qing carefully applies the "pearl powder" extracted from white jasmine kernels to her face, and then gently applies the "hosta powder" made of hosta flower and Hu powder to her forehead. Makeup powder is applied to her face, the snow is white, and her skin is more smooth and translucent.

This rouge is the best red and blue flower rouge wrung out of the juice, washed and cleaned, and then steamed with the hibiscus flower dew.

This ancient cosmetics are really natural! Su Liuyin couldn't help but sigh secretly: I must study it well when I have my spare time!

Aunt Qing dipped a little apricot dew to melt it, wiped it in the palm of her hand, and carefully patted her cheeks to make her cheeks red.

Su Liuyin saw through the bronze mirror that Aunt Qing was wearing a turtle back pattern dress that she didn't often wear on weekdays.

Aunt Qing took her eyebrows and said softly, "Miss, please raise your head lightly." Su Liuyin tilted her head back.

Aunt Qing smiled and said, "Miss, don't look too high!"

Xing'er and Qu'er in the back also hid their faces and laughed!

Lightly depicting the green eyebrows, the eyebrows are frowning in the spring mountain, and the eyes are full of autumn water.

Then use a fine hairpin to pick a little rouge, use the index finger to lightly apply it to her lips, take the lip grease and gently embellish it, which can be described as a pearl of the lips.

Xing'er had already presented a tassel hair ornament, and Aunt Qing used a golden-red tassel hair ornament to fix it behind her forehead and hairline, and used tassels and forehead ornaments to scatter butterfly-shaped flowers on both sides of her forehead and face.

This flower has a beautiful source: Southern Dynasty "Song Wu Emperor daughter Shouyang Princess, people lie under the eaves of the Hanzhang Palace, plum blossoms fall on the forehead, into five flowers, brushed away, after three days of washing is falling, the palace maid is strange, compete for it." For some reason, it is called "plum blossom makeup" or "Shouyang makeup", which is very wonderful and novel.

Apricot carefully brought the crown of twelve dragons and nine phoenixes, There is a dragon at the top of its front, seven dragons in the middle, and five phoenixes in the lower part; one dragon in the upper part of the back, three dragons in the lower part; One phoenix on each side. Dragons rise with their heads held high, stand upright on all fours, or walk and gallop, in different forms. The beads in the green wind mouth, spread their wings and fly, and the color is long-lasting and gorgeous.

Aunt Qing carefully took it and put it on the table

On the top, Qu'er then presented a big collar and a big red placket, decorated with beads of woven gold clouds and dragon text dark blue as the quality of the shawl. Two of them are side by side, the tips are stitched together, hanging in front of the body, hanging with a dragon jade pendant, and the flat end is stored in the triangular pocket behind the coat.

Su Liuyin stood up, and Aunt Qing and Xing'er worked together to drape it on her shoulders.

In the end, she put the phoenix crown on her head herself, and she just wanted to complain about its amazing weight!

At this time, Caofu was naturally busy: welcoming the family, the sedan chair, and the ceremony......
