Dongying went to Rongde Pavilion, and after kowtowing to the old lady and the old marquis, the old marquis and the old lady said auspicious words respectively, and gave the red envelope to the pressure box.

The Xue family chose Fulu's thickest wife, Rong, to dress up for Dongyi, and the third and fourth ladies helped on the side. The second lady is widowed and cannot go to the bride's room, and the fifth lady is a mother-in-law, so she must also avoid suspicion.

The phoenix crown has already been prepared, and Mrs. Shizi helped her to tie up the green silk, put on the bridal makeup, the cheeks are bright red, the lips are rouge, and the woman in the mirror is charming and charming, without showing the abruptness of the makeup.

Bridal makeup should be full of joy, many women with light eyebrows and eyes can't hold it, although they look jubilant, they don't have much beauty, just for a ceremony.

And Qin Li's makeup fell on Dong Jin's face, but there was a luxury and charm that complemented each other, her skin became fairer and fairer, and her eyes became more and more bright, even Mrs. Shizi and others were stunned.

Without the backdrop of the phoenix crown, she still amazes everything.

Tiancheng's beauty, don't blame the emperor for haunting his dreams.

The third lady has a straightforward temperament, and exclaimed again and again: "Sister Yu'er is dressed up like this, she is really good-looking, and she compares all the beauties in the world!" ”

's very exaggerated tone, but it provoked the fourth lady to echo it.

Mrs. Rong laughed, helped Dongyu bring a phoenix crown, wore a bright red bridal dress, and a large vermilion tassel Yunxia shawl, and then helped Dongyu up, knelt down three times in the northwest direction of the Shicui Pavilion, resigned from the boudoir, and was accompanied by the marrying roses, crape myrtles, red lotus, and hedges, and went to the wing room next to the ancestral hall to wait for the huā sedan chair of the Sheng family.

The phoenix crown worn on the head of Dongyu is based on the skeleton of black silk thread, and the face is decorated with a golden phoenix. The limelight is adorned with two large eastern pearls. phoenix tail ornamented medium east pearl; The wings of the golden phoenix are decorated with pearls, ruby sapphire, and cat's eye stones. The golden phoenix has a row of hanging beads in its mouth, and the hanging beads are decorated with red sapphire horns.

The whole phoenix crown is brilliant. Set off her face like a pearl. Like a blooming peony, fragrant and rich, the color is strong, delicate and graceful. Quietly release the proud beauty of thousands of purples and reds.

Rose served Dongyu and wore "Duofu", which is galoshes embroidered with various blessing characters. Out of the boudoir door. Before entering the cave, the bride's feet must not be dusted. In the past, it was a carpet of blessing characters covered with blessings, but then I felt that it was too extravagant. to the present dynasty. Gradually, it developed to make a pair of "Duofu" galoshes instead of felt blankets.

Before leaving the pavilion, there is no need for a red hijab, and the guests at home are waiting at the door of the Shicui Pavilion.

Seeing the maid and the mother-in-law hugging, the wife of the prince and the third lady supporting Dongyu, everyone stepped forward one after another. Say some auspicious words, and also inhale repeatedly. Praise the bride for being as beautiful as a fairy.

Dong Yu didn't speak, just smiled shyly. Mrs. Shizi and the third lady answered for her. Relatives and friends followed and went to the ancestral hall in the northwest corner of Xue Mansion, which was very close to the old lady's Rongde Pavilion.

Since ancient times, the northwest is respected, and the emperor's throne sits in the north and faces south, with his back to the northwest, symbolizing the supremacy of power. In the northwest corner of Xue Mansion, there is only the old lady's Rongde Pavilion. Bypassing Rongde Pavilion, there is a pond with a small pavilion in the water. Two long hand-copying verandahs, bypassing the rockery, are the ancestral halls.

The relatives and daughters sat in the wing room next to the ancestral hall for a while, and it was already early noon.

The maid in front came to open the banquet, and everyone got up one after another and went to the front seat, and only Dongyu and the four maids were left in the noisy room.

Dong Yu had been silent, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

Mother Zhan came in with a rosewood embossed golden lotus food box, and asked Dongying with a smile: "Miss Nine, are you tired?" ”

Dong Yu was wearing a phoenix crown of at least ten catties, her neck was very sore, and she was looked at and evaluated by the female relatives of relatives and friends, and she was very tired. She didn't dare to complain, her smile couldn't help but be ashamed, and she said against her will: "It's okay, I'm not very tired." Mom, you just asked a little maid to deliver the food box, how can you go in person? ”

Mother Zhan smiled: "The old lady was afraid that you would be uncomfortable, and she didn't dare to talk to others, so she asked me to come and see it myself." Hello, the old lady can rest assured. ”

There was a warm ripple in Dong Yu's heart.

Zhan's mother put the food box in front of Dong Ming, four dishes of plain dishes, a bowl of japonica rice, and took out the ivory inlaid with silver head and gave it to Dong Jin: "You eat everything, don't be hungry." ”

Dongyu knew that the old lady was afraid that the wedding would be late, she wouldn't be able to eat, and she would be hungry, so she specially asked Zhan's mother to make her favorite food and send it.

Taking the chopsticks, Dongyu said thank her mother, chewed slowly, and ate a whole bowl of rice, which was more than she usually ate.

Zhan's mother was very happy to watch.

Dong Yu ate, Rose and Red Lotus packed up the food box and sent Zhan's mother out of the room.

Dong Ying wore a heavy phoenix crown and paced back and forth in the room. Hedge and crape myrtle didn't know why, the two looked at each other, and finally Hedge whispered: "Miss, what do you want to do, the slave maid will help you do it." You ......"

Dong Yu came back to his senses and said with a smile: "I just consume food." ”

Seeing that the two little maids were stunned, it was estimated that it was very strange to wear bridal makeup to consume food, so they sat back on the kang.

After eating, Mrs. Rong came over first and brought Jing Xi. Seeing that the rouge on Dongyu's cheeks was a little scattered, and the rouge on her lips was all removed by eating, she wiped it again.

Far away, Dongyu can vaguely hear the bursts of firecrackers.

Mrs. Shizi smiled: "The Sheng family's greeting person is here. ”

Dong Yu's heart tightened inexplicably, she grabbed a brocade handkerchief in her hand, and breathed slightly. An inexplicable sense of tension surrounded her: she really wanted to get on the huā sedan chair and get married.

The third quarter of the first month of Shen is an auspicious time, and now it should be the end of the beginning. In just over an hour, she was going to leave the Xue Mansion where she had lived for six years and go to an unknown place.

That place, will spend her whole life.

No matter how calm she was, the tension caused by the fear of the unknown at the moment was unsettling to her.

Mrs. Shizi could see that Dong Ying was unusual, so she sat beside her, gently took her hand and said: "Sister Yu, you don't have to be afraid, Mrs. Sheng is not a tricky person, the son of the Sheng family is dignified, you can serve the son of the Sheng family and her in-laws with peace of mind, and life will be fine." ”

It's comforting her.

But at this moment, these comforting words were a drop in the bucket, Dong Yu ignored the presence of Mrs. Shizi, took a deep breath, and spit it out again, before she calmed down and said with a smile: "I remember, auntie." ”

Mrs. Shizi bowed slightly.

At about the end of the day, two brides came in and said ten thousand blessings to Dongyi.

Mrs. Shizi sent them a red envelope and gave up the place next to Dongyu to Xi Niang. Xi Niang covered the red Xipa embroidered with Mandarin ducks playing in the water for Dongyi, and said the words of blessing the children and grandchildren, the husband and wife and the beauty.

Dong Yu's eyes were suddenly full of shadows, and the sky and the earth were all hazy pale red.

The noise on the other side of the gate was blocked by the Xue Mansion pavilions, and Dongyu didn't know what was going on.

Until the moment of Shen Chu, her lobby brother Xue Huajing came and said congratulations to the ninth sister and gave her a red envelope.

Dongyu took it in her hand, she knew that the one who would carry her out to the sedan chair later was her lobby brother. Covered with a hippoa, Dong Yu could not speak.

Suddenly, the drum music was getting closer and closer, people were calling to welcome the bride, Xue Huajing said the ninth sister, and squatted in front of Dongyi. With the help of Xi Niang, the maid and others, Dong Ying lay on Xue Huajing's back, and Xue Huajing carried him out of the room.

The sunlight outside is warm and bright, and even though it is covered with red Xipa, you can see the general scenery before and after. Out of the ancestral hall, bypassing the cloister of copying hands, about two cups of tea, it is almost to the hall in front of the hanging huā door. There were big red firecracker crumbs on the ground, and the air was full of the smell of firecrackers.

Out of the weeping huā gate, and then through the double instrument gate, out of the gate of the town Xianhou Mansion.

Xue Huajing put Dongying on the thick red felt carpet at the door, supported by the bride, and got on the huā sedan chair with colorful folded feather tassels.

The noise and firecrackers were deafening.

The suona sound of the sedan car sounded, and the huā sedan chair shook slightly and walked away slowly.

Gradually, the voices of people faded away, the firecrackers were not heard, and only the gongs, drums, and suona played her way.

In order to respect the lord of Roujia, the Sheng family's marriage ceremony was not according to the stepfamily, but according to the original match. Her huā sedan chair walked around the entire capital, trying her best to be extravagant, until the beginning of the day, when it was getting late, she entered the gate of the Shengchang Marquis' Mansion.

The huā sedan chair stopped steadily, and three arrows were shot at the door of the sedan chair, before a pair of hands lifted the curtain, stuffed the red and green scarf with two concentric knots into her hand, and led her out of the sedan chair.

The moment he took the scarf, Dong Yu touched the hands, which were very warm.

She got out of the huā sedan chair, stepped on the big red felt carpet laid out by the Marquis of Shengchang, and entered the gate of the Sheng Mansion. From today on, she is a member of the Sheng family, and at this moment, her hands involuntarily trembled.

It's the sound of firecrackers again, human voices, and the noise is not endless.

It was already dark, and Dongyi, who was covered in the red Xipa, could not see anything clearly, and the bride supported her and whispered in her ear to remind her.

When you enter the main hall, you worship heaven and earth.

Worship heaven and earth, wealth and glory, the world lasts forever; The second worship of the high hall, the longevity of the ancestors, the blessing is long; Husband and wife worship, many children and many blessings, and grow old together.

In the loud blessing of the master of ceremonies, Dongyu completed the ritual of worshipping heaven and earth.

Congratulations were endless.

In the midst of the noise, she was sent to a new house.

The bride handed over the weighing rod wrapped in red silk to the groom's official, smiled and said loudly: "The groom's official provokes the hijab, and the husband and wife will be harmonious and beautiful for a hundred years." ”

In the midst of a burst of laughter, Dongyu saw a figure walking in front of her and provoked Xipa.

As soon as she lifted it, the light in front of her suddenly brightened, causing her eyes to blink slightly, and it took her a moment to adjust to the bright light in the new room.

She also felt that the moment the hijab was raised, there was a brief pause in the original noise in the new house, as if she was amazed by her appearance, and she didn't know how to speak.

The silence was broken by the laughter of the bride.

Next, it should be Wo Lu. Her concubine Teng served the groom to clean her hands, and the maid of the Sheng family served Dong Ying to clean her hands, indicating that she had washed away the filth and would be safe and smooth from now on.

Two clear-eyed maids served Dong Ming, and the moment she raised her eyes slightly, Dong Ying also saw Xue Jiangwan.

She was wearing a water-red wedding dress and was helping Sheng Xiuyi clean her hands.

And Sheng Xiuyi, Dong Yu didn't dare to raise his eyes to look. She glanced at it when she lowered her eyes, and only felt that Sheng Xiuyi's legs were slender, and he should be a man with a long body.
