"That's right, the eldest lady said that I was finally found back to the Yan family, and thanks to the manifestation of the ancestors, the broken fate was reconnected. Ming'er happened to be a good day for my father, and I wanted my father to take me to the ancestral hall to kowtow to my ancestors, so that I could recognize my ancestors and return to my ancestors. ”

As she spoke, she deliberately showed an embarrassed look: "It's the first time I've gone back to the ancestral hall to worship, and I don't know what kind of clothes look decent." Originally, I wanted Yaxiang to ask the eldest lady and Aunt Liu, but during the day, I was busy cleaning and ventilating Mufeng Courtyard, and I forgot about it all of a sudden. By the time I remembered it, it was already this hour, and the eldest lady and Aunt Liu had already fallen asleep. But if you don't ask clearly, if Ming'er is dressed inappropriately, she is afraid of being disrespectful to the deceased elders of the Yan family. I heard Yaxiang say that she is quite good with Lingxiang on weekdays, so I came to ask. ”

"For fear of disturbing Aunt Liu's rest, I didn't even dare to enter the house. The three of them are studying at the gate of this hospital, but it just so happened that Aunt Li came out. Yan Xiaowei bent her lips, and two small pear vortices appeared on the side of her mouth, looking very flattering: "You have been in this mansion for so many years, you have eaten more salt than we have eaten, and you have seen a lot of big scenes, this little thing will definitely not be difficult for you, can Aunt Li deign to point to cumin?" ”

Her words made the cause and effect clear, and she brought a top hat to Aunt Li, who coaxed Aunt Li to be overjoyed for a while, and she was no longer prestigious.

However, he pretended to sigh on his face: "You young people, you just don't know the rules, and when you go to the ancestral hall to worship, of course you have to dress dignified and steady." The girls of the Yan family all wear dark red dresses, which are worn when worshipping ancestors, which are both stable and not too plain and depressing, you go back to the room to look for it, and it is at the bottom of the wardrobe. As for hair accessories, it's good to simply comb them, don't wear any flowery silk flowers, and look unruly. ”

Yan Xiaowei originally made up an excuse casually, but it was indeed true that she would follow Yan's father to worship the ancestral hall on the second day. Aunt Li's answer really gave her a lot of useful information. Hurriedly and silently wrote it down in his heart, and when he said goodbye to Aunt Li and thanked him before leaving, it was all out of sincerity.

Early in the morning of the second day, as soon as the sky was bright, Yan Xiaowei was called up by Yaxiang to bathe and freshen up to worship the ancestors. When I went back to Mufeng Courtyard last night, Ya Xiang looked for it on the lower level of the wardrobe according to Aunt Li's words, and really turned out a dark red dress. Taking advantage of Yan Xiaoyi's bath, Yaxiang spread the dress on the table, threw a wet cloth on it, and took the fire bucket, put red-hot charcoal in it, and ironed the folds on the dress little by little, and then served her to put it on.

Because the dress was prepared a long time ago, it was not tailored to her body size, and it was big and long on her body, and when she stood in front of the bronze mirror, it looked like she had stolen the clothes of the elders in the family. And in the short distance from Mufeng Courtyard to the main house, her embroidered shoes stepped on the corners of her overly long skirt countless times. But Yaxiang also warned her on the side that women were not allowed to show their feet, and Yan Xiaowei couldn't lift the skirt with her hands, so she gritted her teeth all the way and finally arrived in the front hall.

Father Yan was sitting on the right seat, frowning and brushing the foam in the teacup with the lid of the bowl, and when he saw her walk in, he only raised his eyes slightly, and then lowered his eyes and was silent. Liu was arranging her makeup for Yan Haiyue, who was also wearing a dark red dress but was obviously well-cut, and when she walked in with a wide robe, the two laughed almost immediately.

Yan Haiyue walked over and took Yan Xiaoyi's hand with a smile: "As soon as my sister wears this dress and walks away from this mansion, the maids who are in charge of sweeping the floor will be very happy." ”

She stretched out her hand and pulled the corner of Yan Xiaoyi's skirt: "This is a dress, it's clearly a broom!" ”

Liu pursed his lips and smiled, and poked Yan Haiyue's forehead angrily: "You talk a lot!" Your sister has just returned, and if she makes a dress according to her size, it will probably take three or four days to get it over. I can only give her what I prepared in advance, and I wronged her this time. ”

She raised her hand and stroked Yan Xiaoyi's chin: "You kid, you are too honest, although you should be more solemn today, but you can't have nothing on your head." When the ancestor saw it, he thought that our Yan family had treated you badly! ”

said and beckoned to the maid standing at the door: "Cang'er, you go to my room, bring the pair of pearls and flowers and phoenix hairpins in the makeup, and save them for the second girl in a while." ”

Cang'er agreed, turned around and was about to leave, when Aunt Liu suddenly opened her mouth and stopped her: "Slow! ”
