Chapter 116: Makeup
After helping out at Mrs. Lu's house for a few days, Cui'er was busy with energy, although she had some back pain, Cui'er's mood was excellent.
On the first night of Huazhi's marriage, the eldest girl and little daughter-in-law in the village who were familiar with Huazhi met to go to Aunt Lu's house to add makeup.
I don't know where I learned this makeup, but it's already an old gift for the backing mountain, whenever someone has a happy event, the money with the family is out of the family, which is a normal gift.
But if the bride to be married has a good relationship with her own family, the eldest girl and the little daughter-in-law will prepare a female worker to send, such as a wrapper leather upper or something, or send some practical door curtains, pillows and the like, one is a blessing to the newlyweds, and the other can also make the bride's dowry richer.
After all, they are all people in the mountains, and the dowry that can be purchased at home is limited, except for the necessary box cage covers, etc., ordinary people may not be able to afford more things. With all kinds of things to add makeup and gifts, the new daughter-in-law will look better when she arrives at her mother-in-law's house, and she will use these things in the future, and she will also seem to be popular when she is in her mother's house.
Cui'er is very close to Aunt Lu and Huazhi, so she chose the good pink material in the shop in the town early on, and gave the material to Huazhi, and made two dresses according to Huazhi's size, and there will be a lot of surplus.
It is said that this makeup is all the first day of the marriage, most of which is at night. Cui'er was afraid that it would be unsafe to walk at night, and when the sky gradually darkened, she took the little red bag she packed up and went to Aunt Lu's house.
When she arrived at the door of Aunt Lu's house, Cui'er didn't enter the door directly, and shouted at Qinghe's house next door, and her younger sister Dong heard Cui'er's shout, so she carried a small bag and hurriedly walked out, still holding their Ermao in her hand.
"Why did you bring Ermao with you?" Generally, when adding makeup, it is customary not to bring children, because the main family is happy. When you see a child, you have to give a little red envelope or something, even if you only put one penny in each one, you will have to pay twenty or thirty pennies for twenty or thirty children. For the mountain people who don't have much money, this is also a big expense.
Because I thought so. Cui'er didn't bring Xiaohu over, and Dong's lived next door to Aunt Lu, but she had to hug Ermao, Cui'er turned around in her heart, and basically knew what Dong's was thinking, and smiled helplessly, and took Dong into Aunt Lu's house together.
Dong Shi saw that he hugged Ermao Cuier and didn't say anything, and couldn't help but be happy in his heart, he hugged Ermao and went to Aunt Lu's house, with Aunt Lu's good-face style. It must be a fruit and a candy, and there is a red envelope of one or two big bucks.
Thinking that he would be able to get back a bunch of things by giving away a pair of uppers later, Dong's heart was so beautiful that his face was beaming, if he didn't know. I'm afraid that I will think that this is the master of the happy event, but this joy is not adulterated at all.
Cui'er looked at Dong's happy appearance, she was very amused in her heart, shook her head and smiled, and then carried her burden into Aunt Lu's house.
"Aunt Lu, Huazhi, we're here!" Cui'er entered the house. Looking at the big red characters in the room, the red and bright ones, suddenly recalled the scene when I got married at Aunt Lu's house, and my heart suddenly soured, and then there was boundless sweetness.
"Sister Cui'er is here!" Huazhi was sitting on the edge of the kang and talking to the daughter-in-law in the village, when she saw Cui'er coming. stood up excitedly, walked up to Cui'er in three or two steps, took her hand and sat on the edge of the kang, her eyes were shining, "But I'm looking forward to you." ”
"It's for me. Or do you want me to send me makeup? Cui'er looked at Huazhi's face beaming, and couldn't help teasing her, as soon as she said this, the big girl and the little daughter-in-law in the house laughed one after another.
"Sister Cui'er will bully me and ignore you!" When Hua Zhi heard this, her cheeks, which were already flushed, turned even redder, like a red apple, and there was a slight watery light in her eyes, but with a completely different light from before, with some shyness, with some charm.
"Oh, don't ignore me, the bride, for the sake of my hard work to add makeup to you, can you say a word to my sister?" Cui'er pulled the flower branch with a smile, and stuffed the burden in her hand into the flower branch's hand, "Come on, come on, this is the makeup I gave you, after our flower branch is married, it has to be like now, as beautiful as a flower." ”
"Sister......" There was no sister on the flower branch, and when she heard the strong concern in Cui'er's words, she couldn't help but reddened her eyes slightly.
"This bride is going to drop a kitten?" Cui'er looked at Huazhi, her heart was slightly sour, she reached out and gently touched Huazhi's long and silky hair draped over her shoulders, "Our Huazhi is so lovely, it will definitely be good when we arrive at my mother-in-law's house." ”
"Okay, I will definitely learn from my sister-in-law and live a prosperous life." Huazhi was moved by Cui'er's gentle words and almost shed tears, blinked her eyes hurriedly, and blinked her tears back, and then looked down at the makeup that Cui'er had sent.
"My God, Sister Cui'er, the butterflies on your baggage can come back to life!" As he spoke, Hua Zhi raised the furoshiki in his hand to the bright spot, and looked at the flowers and butterflies on it carefully, only feeling that he had never seen such beautiful embroidery work, and even when he went to the town, the clothes of those rich ladies were not so beautiful.
"Do you like it?" Cui'er looked at Huazhi's surprise appearance, and felt that her intentions were not in vain, and her heart was very ironing.
"Of course I like it, thank you sister!" Hua Zhi nodded excitedly, touching the furoshiki and couldn't put it down, and when she opened the red furoshiki and saw that it was an excellent piece of fabric, she was even more excited, "Sister Cui'er, is this really for me?" It's so beautiful! ”
"Oh my God, this material is so pretty, it's almost up to the silk that the town ladies are wearing!" The daughter-in-law next to me, who didn't know which family, said with glowing eyes, wishing that this fabric was for herself.
"Really, you can cut two or three sets of clothes in such a big piece, right?" Someone whispered next to him.
"Sister Cui'er...... This is too precious...... "Hua Zhi stroked the material that Cui'er bought, and felt that he was not happy, this pink and tender material, I saw it when I was in the town, it was more than twice as expensive as ordinary cotton cloth, such a large piece of material, without half a tael of silver, it would definitely not be able to get down. It's too heavy.
"What is precious or not, when I got married, I was married from the hair in this house, and my aunt treated me like a daughter, and I also regarded you as a sister-in-law. If you get married, and when you are a sister, you are not allowed to take some personal things for you as a private room? Cui'er said with a smile to the flower branch.
"Hey, Sister Cui'er, I also treat you as my own sister." Seeing Cui'er smiling so gently, Huazhi only felt that her eyes were hot, and she still shed tears.
"Oh, the bride doesn't always drop the kitten." Cui'er looked at Huazhi so emotionally, and her heart was slightly sour, and she joked about Huazhi on her lips, but there were tears in her eyes. She hurriedly turned her head to the side and said to the familiar little daughter-in-law who came to add makeup, "Why don't you hurry up and take out all the things to coax the bride!" ”
After listening to Cui'er's words, everyone took out the objects they had added to their makeup, and this one gave a pair of pillow towels. That one will send a ruler, this one will send a door curtain, and that one will send a furoshiki and the like, although everything is not as valuable as Cui'er's gift, but they are all fiery hearts.
Huazhi looked at the little sisters and sisters-in-law in the village who gave things one after another, and the sadness that came up just now faded, and thanked the people who came with them while collecting makeup. The whole house is lively again.
Aunt Chunzhu's daughter-in-law, the daughter-in-law of the big yam, Zhang, also came to add makeup, and gave a pair of pillow towels that have been in harmony for a hundred years. It makes people like it when they look at it, and it's obviously done with their hearts.
Cui'er can talk to the Zhang family who talks neatly and neatly, and when the flower branch is busy receiving gifts, Cui'er chats with the Zhang family with a match.
"Sister Huazhi, sister-in-law doesn't have anything good at home. Don't be disgusted. In a blink of an eye, Lian Qinghe's daughter-in-law, Dong's came to add makeup, she hugged Ermao to Huazhi, and handed over a pair of uppers embroidered by herself, "I wish you two sweet and sweet, and give birth to a noble son early!" ”
"Thank you, sister-in-law!" Huazhi took the garnet-red upper, praised the embroidery, and saw Ermao in Dong's arms, the tiger-headed Ermao stared at Huazhi with round eyes, so that Huazhi liked it.
Huazhi hurriedly took out a small red purse from the sewing basket beside him and handed it to Ermao, "This is Ermao, come, Aunt Huazhi will give you a purse, and when we grow up, we will buy candy to eat!" ”
"Oh, the kid's family, what are you doing with the money!" Dong Shi saw that Huazhi really gave money, and he was so happy that he couldn't do it, so he was busy taking it for Ermao. I thought that even if it was a penny or two, and the little red purse embroidered with flowers, it looked like it was worth a few pennies.
Cui'er, who was sitting on the side talking to Zhang's family, saw the shallow-eyed appearance of Fei'er, she really couldn't smile bitterly, there could be a few big money in the child's small purse, and Dong's happy smile made Cui'er feel depressed for a while.
Cui'er, as the sister-in-law who entered the door later, this is another big day for Huazhi, it is not good to have a seizure, so I have to keep comforting myself, this Dong family is also too good at living like this. After comforting a few words in a row, Cui'er felt better, but in her heart she still felt that the Dong family would teach Da Mao and Er Mao crookedly, and she was worried that she would have to take care of her problems when she was free.
The sky outside was getting dark, and many people were pouring in one after another in the house of flowers. Aunt Lu has a good temperament, helping people with happy events in the village, giving up her strength to do things is also skillful, and she has made a lot of friends.
Cui'er helped entertain the guests for a while, then took Dong and Zhang to say goodbye, and went out of the door of the Lu family, Cui'er looked at the Dong family who took out her purse and gave it to a few money, and was speechless in her heart.
"In the future, if you make money at home, let's also call Lian Qinghe's family a share, and see if she can get better after she has money." Thinking so in her heart, Cui'er was also relieved, separated from the Dong family and the Zhang family, and walked outside the village.
The road was a little dark at night, and when Cui'er just walked to the entrance of the village, she saw a tall man standing at the entrance of the village, with a torch in his hand and a child in his arms, looking over here.
"Aoyama!" Cui'er only felt a warmth in her heart, and trotted over.
