Chapter 305: Tying the knot becomes a good thing
There are four mothers-in-law who dress her up, as well as five or six little maids, holding head jewelry, and lipid powder, and the luxurious wedding dress is also brought over and temporarily propped up on the wooden shelf.
The experienced mother-in-law twisted the fine thread woven of five-colored cotton yarn to remove the hair on the face of the bride to make it more delicate and radiant, but when she touched her fingers carefully, she felt that the skin under her fingers was really smooth and tender, and she couldn't feel any flaws, and she couldn't help but be a little surprised. This big girl said that before she recognized her, she was a cook who buried herself in the stove of the firewood room every day.
Hua Manxi smiled at the corner of her mouth and reminded her mother-in-law: "Is there anything missing?" Only then did the mother-in-law come back to her senses and said: "No, no, it's just that the old body has been doing this business for many years, and a noble and beautiful girl like a girl is stunned for a while, and the old body will comb your hair for you." ”
Comb the bride's hair, and there is a bit of exquisiteness, do not let the little girl born by hand, it has to be such a skillful, old mother-in-law, it is said to be blessed. While combing her hair, the mother-in-law chanted the words of blessing: "One comb to the end of the hair, the second to comb the white hair to the eyebrows, and the third to comb the children and grandchildren all over the ground...... There are no taboos for 10 combs. ”
Hua Manxi sat quietly, rarely not talking much. To be honest, she was also in a trance. Since calling here, mother, cooking, Wang Shishi, Xu Jinfei, all these have been counted, it is really like a scene that I can't meet in a dream in my previous life. But everything in front of her was extremely real, the whole boudoir was overwhelmingly red, and everyone smiled at her.
She is about to marry the person she likes, and from then on, Qin Se and Ming, grow old together.
It's just that...... The rules and steps of the ancients to marry are too cumbersome, this morning was only five watches, she was tossed, and she didn't even have the opportunity to make herself a bowl of wonton, so she hurriedly stuffed two small snacks.
Hua Manxi's brows jumped suddenly, feeling that he was very likely to fall hungry in the sedan chair, and he would have to let the maid get some food to pease his stomach first. She glanced at the table, and there were all kinds of jewels and jade jewelry, not to mention more than ten catties. Fortunately, she is a real cook, not a delicate lady.
If Lin Fengxuan were replaced, wouldn't he fall to the ground?
In fact, this idea is really a lot of worries, because Lin Fengxuan can only wear a peach-colored wedding dress, and she can't wear more hairpin ring jewelry, otherwise she will trespass the prince's concubine, and she will have to be beaten by a few rituals when she enters.
The mother-in-law finally tied her hair neatly and neatly, without leaking a single bit, and even some broken hair that could not be combed into it was also squeezed into the sideburns with osmanthus head oil, and finally pressed the phoenix crown. In the end, Hua Manxi got up, and the little maids held the back hem of the wedding dress and let her turn around in front of the bronze mirror.
In the mirror, the person has apricot eyes and peach cheeks, a piece of style is still on the eyebrows, a thin layer of carmine is fainted at the corners of the eyes, the figure is slender, the waist seems to be able to hold it, and even the slender hand that stretches out is also tied with a red jade chain with a treasure of light, hanging down for a long time.
The crowd was very happy, knelt on the ground and sang two words of congratulations to the eldest girl, and then helped her to sit down on the embroidery stool, and waited for someone to pick her up. In the old days, most of the women in the boudoir were noble, and they had to be carried on the sedan chair by the brothers in the family, and if there were no brothers, they would be led by their fathers.
But it's hard to be a big Shaolin Yuheng, and today I have two backs. Although Hua Manxi and Lin Fengxuan are both slender women, with the addition of more than ten catties of jewelry, it is really not light. Besides, he is a gentleman, and he usually even carries a ten-pound rice bag, I'm afraid he can break his arm, let alone a hundred pounds per person.
Fortunately, Hua Manxi is not close to this family in the end, and she doesn't want to really have too much contact with other men, what she means is to make a show, and the distance from the middle hall to the door can be carried on her back. If she wasn't going to marry these people and get rid of them, she wouldn't want to cause more trouble, she would rather find Chen Xiuli to recognize a righteous brother and call him to carry it.
After another toss, I got into the sedan chair, and walked from here to the Guogong Mansion, not to mention a quarter of an hour, Hua Manxi yawned, and was a little sleepy. A group of people along the road blew and played, very festive, and there were a few maids, sprinkled with fragrant flowers and dried fruits, and some copper coins. The people on both sides have been waiting for a long time, and as soon as the sedan chair passes, it is a robbery.
Many people asked, "Which girl is this?" It's been rare to see such a battle in recent years. ”
There are also good people who loudly solve their doubts, presumably today's marriage will become a topic of conversation in Kyoto in January, teahouses and restaurants.
This sedan chair swayed, it was really a little hypnotic, Hua Manxi yawned again, squinted slightly, in order to prevent herself from really falling asleep, she made a fool of herself when she fell off the sedan chair, she silently began to report the name of the dish in her heart. Not to mention, the more you think, the more sober you become, even if you are hungry, you are really growling.
She also stuffed two glutinous rice crystal cakes into her sleeve. Bai Bai was chubby, filled with bean paste filling, which filled a little appetite, but he didn't dare to eat more, this sweet tooth was still panicked, and he wanted to drink water when he ate too much. Anyway, when the worship is over, there must be a lot of food in the new house, and then she will make it herself.
She counted silently in her heart, and after another cup of tea, the sedan chair shook slightly and landed smoothly. There is a custom in Nanyang, there must be a young girl, dressed as a jade girl, also known as the sedan chair lady, three brides, the bride can get out of the sedan chair. Hua Manxi stretched out her sleeve for her to pull, and the girl muttered slightly: "It's a pity that I can't see my face, and I know that I must be a beautiful sister." ”
Hua Manxi smiled under the hijab, and whispered to her: "That's good, in the future, you come to the Zhenguo Mansion to play with your sister, and your sister will cook you eggs in sugar water." The little girl was innocent, and immediately rejoiced when she heard the words, and then pulled her sleeves: "Then sister, let's get out of the sedan chair, the good day will be auspicious, and it will be there soon." ”
After getting off the sedan chair, he was supported by his mother-in-law, and stepped over a brazier, and crossed a high threshold before slowly approaching the big house of the worship hall. Originally, the groom should have come out to greet the bride, but Xu Jinfei was not external, and after all, he had to pretend to be bad at it, so he sat in a wheelchair with a clean and indifferent look, until he saw a slender figure, his eyes fluctuated.
Hua Manxi's hijab was very long, and she almost had to support her step by step so as not to trip, but the moment she stopped, her heart also moved slightly, knowing that she had arrived at the place, and the man in front of her was her Xu Gongzi.
Xu Jinfei came to hold her hand, his fingers were interlocked, and although his voice was a little hoarse, it also revealed a rare sense of joy: "People have also arrived, let's go to the church." ”
Worship heaven and earth, this situation can be proven, like jade and stone, indestructible.
When he bowed to the high hall for the second time, Xu Jinfei's little finger moved slightly, and he was suddenly a little nervous, looking at his biological father above the blue sky, and seeing that he became a relative to the person he liked, would he be happy for him?
Husband and wife worshipped each other, Hua Manxi felt Xu Jinfei holding her hand tightly, and then said in a very low and soft voice: "They can't get drunk with me, you are waiting in the room." ”
Hua Manxi blushed and hummed softly.
When it was time to get to the new house, Hua Manxi breathed a sigh of relief.
This is the marriage of the Zhenguo Mansion, not a rural village husband marrying, no one will dare to break in casually. Now she can finally relax and no longer have to carry ten pounds of jewelry on her back.
However, she still hoped in her heart that Xu Jinfei could see the most beautiful herself, so she decided to wait for him to see it before removing these miscellaneous jewelry. She lifted her hijab and stretched out in the new room, almost hearing her bones crackling.
Good fellow, tossing back and forth like this is even more tiring than squatting in the kitchen and burning firewood for three hours.
There is a large round table in the room, put some snacks, all are delicately shaped, take the auspicious kind, and there is a pot of celadon wine, Hua Manxi is estimated to be used by He. She touched the two beds of jujube red brocade, and pulled out a bunch of longan lotus seeds and the like.
She didn't want to fall down when the time came, and her back hurt from a pile of dates and longan. Hua Manxi was full of black lines, freed up a plate, swept all the lotus seeds, and checked it twice to confirm that it was clean, and then poured it into the futon with confidence.
Well, it's very soft and fragrant.
Hua Manxi didn't want to get up a little, but at this moment, there was a banging knock on the door, which made her take aback. Is Xu Jinfei so fast? I thought he would eat for two hours.
Hua Manxi thought about it, and felt that something was wrong, if it was Xu Jinfei, he would just push the door in generously, what did he do when he knocked on the door? So she leaned against the door and asked softly, "Who's coming, report your name?" ”
There was a slight noise sneakily outside the door, and at the same time there was a low voice, very clear, "It's me, Manxi, I'm here to bring you food!" "Where can it be someone else, it is naturally Wang Shishi.
Hua Manxi hurriedly put her in, Wang Shishi also dressed up today, wearing a five-color smoky Luo skirt, glamorous but vulgar, very bright. She carried a mahogany food box, stuck out her tongue and said, "I guessed that you didn't eat anything, so I brought you something." There were a bunch of big men drinking in front of me, so I didn't want to pay attention to them, so I just asked my cousin to drink with them. ”
Before Hua Manxi could speak, she had already smelled the fresh aroma first, sniffed her nose, patted her shoulder and said, "The taste of Yipinju, Shishi, you are really a good girlfriend in Nanyang." I remember that Master Chen can't drink alcohol, why don't you help him? ”
Wang Shishi put the food box on the table, opened a layer, and said while moving: "I ordered a sachet for him, the taste is very bitter, drunk again, smell it to ensure refreshment, there are several hangover pills in it, I arranged it so thoughtfully, if he is still drunk, I will carry him home." Today is your wedding, and I have to hold on to you first. He's a big man, and he can't afford to lose his body. ”
