Princess Anyang looked at the little girl who was so clever in the palace that day, and she couldn't help but feel a little more pity in her heart at this time.

"Look at this child, he has even forgotten his birthday."

Old Madam Xie was wearing a lake blue brocade skirt, and the pearl crown on her head showed that she was more graceful than before.

She stepped forward to take Xie Qingheng's place, pushed Su Ruan to the hall and said, "I asked your mother, today is your sixteenth birthday, and last year's day should have been your birthday. ”

"Originally, your father should have done it for you, but your father left early."

"After discussing with Master Hou and your mother, I want to make up a ceremony for you."

Old Madam Xie's voice was gentle.

"In a woman's life, in addition to getting married and having children, only Jilu is the most important and indispensable thing, which means that you are an adult, can say goodbye, can leave home to marry a wife, and become a mother, which also represents the difference between you and the past."

"Although your father is gone, you must have what others should have."

Princess Anyang stood beside Mrs. Xie, bowed her head and smiled at Su Ruan, "Su Ruan, your grandmother invited me to be your guest of honor and hairpin for you, do you think it's good?" ”

Su Ruan looked at the two of them and couldn't help but have slightly red eyes.

"Grandmother, princess......"

There seemed to be something surging in her eyes, which made her almost cry.

Princess Anyang said urgently: "Don't shed tears." ”

She stretched out her hand and put it on Su Ruan's shoulder, and said seriously:

"Today is a good day, don't weep, otherwise it will be unlucky."

Su Ruan pursed her lips tightly and forcibly pressed down the sourness under her eyes, but the circles under her eyes were still red.

Old Madam Xie raised her head and said, "Since the people have arrived, let's start." ”

"Today is the gift of Su Ruan and Lu, and I specially invite Princess Anyang to be the guest of honor and take her right."

"Second girl, help Ruan Ruan over."

Xie Huan took the place of the eldest brother, stepped forward and pushed Su Ruan to stand on the west steps, and helped Su Ruan to sit on the cushion that had been prepared over there with Xie Jinyue.

Mother Liu stepped forward, Mrs. Xie received her usual smile on her face, cleaned her hands very carefully, and then knelt beside Su Ruan as a praiser, took off all the beads in her hair, untied her hair, and combed her long hair with a comb.

"Take the comb as a praise, and the young are good."

Green silk snow muscles, lined Su Ruan's cheeks are getting smaller and smaller, and those reddish eyes are full of water, even if they are young, they are already beginning to look stunning.

Shen Fengnian, who had never made a sound, looked at Su Ruan, and when they saw her appearance, they couldn't help but sigh a good color, and Shen Tangxi's eyes flashed slightly, and his eyes lit up a little.

The front of the hall was separated on both sides, and Su Ruan was carrying out the etiquette under the guidance of Xie Huan, because of the inconvenience of his body, so he omitted a cumbersome paragraph, and when everything was ready, the Wu family acted as the secretary and presented Luo Pa and the hair flute.

Princess Anyang walked up to Su Ruan, and after taking those things, she chanted in her mouth:

"On the auspicious day of the month, the first Canadian dollar is served. Abandon your young ambitions, and become virtuous. Shou Kao Weiqi, Jieer Jingfu. ”

After Princess Anyang finished speaking, she leaned over and took the hairpipe to comb Su Ruan's hair.

Su Ruan should have thanked him, but his body was inconvenient, so he could only bow down to salute.

Mrs. Xie waited for her to finish the salute before going to the hairpin for her, and Princess Anyang took the hairpin from the tray brought by the Wu family, and inserted the hairpin into the hairpin for her.

"Ji Yue Lingchen, Nashen Erfu. Respect for the majesty, the grace of the soot. Eyebrows live for 10,000 years, and will always be blessed by Hu. ”

Xie Huan was holding the same dress as the hairpin, and Mrs. Xie only took the middle waist to tie it for Su Ruan, which represented that after the clothes, Princess Anyang took the hairpin crown in Wu's tray and put it on for Su Ruan.

"With the right of the year, with the order of the month, the salty gar is served. Brothers are there, in order to become a virtue, the astragalus is boundless, and the celebration of heaven ......"

Su Ruan lowered her head slightly, and the hair crown was a little heavy when it fell on her head, but she didn't move at all, just bowed and saluted with the support of Old Madam Xie.

Princess Anyang took the liquor handed over by Xie Jinyue and handed it to Su Ruan.

Su Ruan was a little dazed when she took it, and then she heard Old Madam Xie whisper in her ear: "Just dip your lips and sprinkle the rest on the ground for sacrificial wine." ”

Su Ruan hurriedly did what Old Madam Xie said, took a sip of the liquor, and sprinkled the rest on the ground, while Princess Anyang raised her lips and said loudly when she saw this:

"Gan Li is only thick, and I recommend Ling Fang. Worship and accept sacrifices, in order to determine the auspiciousness. The rest of the heavens, the longevity test will not be forgotten. ”

"Licheng!" (Note: (1))

……

After Xie Jinyue took away the wine glass that Su Ruan had put down, Princess Anyang said to Su Ruan: "Has your father ever picked up a word for you before?" ”

Su Ruan paused and looked at Chen.

Chen hurriedly said: "Ruan Ruan's father used to say that Ruan Ruan was too stubborn, and sometimes he would fall into the polar region if he only advanced and did not retreat, and his father named her Ruan, so that she could be harmonious and not too strong, and said that he would choose words for her when Ruan Ruan and Lu were ready, but it was just ......."

It's just that before Su Ruan and Lu could die, her father was killed.

Su Ruan pursed her lips, looked at Princess Anyang and said, "Princess, I think Ruan is very good, my father called me Ruan Ruan before, I don't want to take small characters anymore." ”

Princess Anyang thought about it when she heard this, nodded and said, "Since you don't think it's necessary, then save this one, Ruan Ruan...... This word is also very good, so I will treat it as your small word. ”

Su Ruan bowed and saluted, "Thank you, princess." ”

Princess Anyang smiled and shook her head: "You don't have to thank me, in fact, with your current situation in Beijing, as long as your grandmother goes out to say something, there are many people who want to come to pay tribute to you, that is, your grandmother is lazy, so she directly calls me here." ”

When Su Ruan heard this, she didn't take Princess Anyang's smile seriously.

Princess Anyang looks kind, but if you really talk about being noble, there are few people in this capital who can compare to her, she herself comes from the surname of Anzhou Dachu, and it is a family of nobles for generations, and then married the king of Anyang, and her identity is even more noble.

Princess Anyang is getting older, and there are very few people who can afford her to go out on weekdays, most of them are holding rare treasures to please her, and it is a very dignified thing for Su Ruan to invite her to be a guest.

And Su Ruan also knew that if it weren't for Mrs. Xie's face, how would others invite Princess Anyang.

Su Ruan respectfully bowed to Princess Anyang: "The princess said that she laughed, Su Ruan thanked the princess." ”

Princess Anyang saw her appearance and smiled: "It's a polite child." ”

After the ceremony, Mrs. Xie directly hugged Su Ruan and put it back on the four-wheeled car, took off the hair crown on her head and the brocade belt around her waist, and put it on the tray on the side, and asked Chen to put it away for Su Ruan, and then said:

"Okay, don't thank you, the ceremony has been completed, it's time to celebrate your birthday."

She looked up at the people present and said unceremoniously:

"It's time for you to give gifts, too."
