Chapter 223: My cousin is so interesting

After Mo Li returned to Beijing, he also followed these relatives of the Duan family and the Mo family, and he had some impressions of these people. In addition, Danyu mentioned it on the side, but it was not a rudeness.

On this day, when he first arrived in Yin, Mo Li was dragged from the kang by Ruoping and stuffed into the bathtub.

On weekdays, she never let people wait when she bathes, but today she can't, Danyu teamed up with Jiayin and Sizhu to press her in a bucket and soak her for nearly an hour.

Ruoping did not participate in this exterminating activity, but leaned against the wall next to her with her shoulders to watch the excitement, causing Mo Li to wail and glare at her with mournful eyes.

When she was released from the bathroom and put on her red underwear, it was still before dawn outside, and someone had already put a table in the window, lit a dragon and phoenix candle, and lit a pillar of incense. There are also three bowls of soup made of nine lotus seeds, nine red dates, and nine soup balls, as well as a plate of raw fruits, roast meat, and chicken hearts.

"Didn't you say that a bride who didn't enter the cave couldn't eat?" Mo Li was told yesterday that she couldn't eat during the day today, and she was sad alone for a while, and then she ate a big meal in line with the principle of not supporting herself to death.

After a night, I soaked in a hot bath for so long just now, and my stomach was really a little empty. Just wanted to serve a bowl of soup to drink, but was stopped by Mama Zhao: "My eldest lady, that's an offering to the sky, not for you to eat." ”

Well, Mo Li withdrew his outstretched paws, and knew that you people would not be so kind, and make an exception for me to be a full bride.

"Cousin is so funny." A girl from the side branch of the Mo family covered her lips and smiled, Mo Li remembered that she was the second daughter of a distant cousin's family, named Jinning.

Her father is the master of Taichang Temple, the Mo family is a scholarly family, but there are not many officials in the court, this side branch uncle's talent is not ordinary in the Mo clan, when he saw that he had no way out, Mo Shilang helped him find an errand in Taichang Temple, but he didn't have any big skills, so many years is just a master book from the seventh grade.

After Mo Li was married, Mo Jinning followed her mother and sister-in-law to Mo's Mansion and asked if she wanted to help take care of the dowry, because the relationship between the two families was not very close, and the Duan family felt that it was not good to trouble others, so they politely refused.

Mo Jinning's words did not attract the attention of the people present, and the combing woman had already placed the prepared ruler, scissors, and copper mirror at this time, these three things are the so-called "dragon head mirror, more cut ruler", which means that the light will follow.

After worshipping the sky, the comb woman began to comb Mo Li's hair, and sang loudly while combing: "One comb to the end, two combs to the eyebrows, three combs to the children and grandchildren all over the ground, four combs and four silver shoots are all marked, five combs are Weng Ju and Shun, six combs are respectful to husband and wife, seven combs and seven sisters go down to earth, eight combs and eight immortals come to congratulate, nine combs and nine sons are in a row, and ten combs are old to the white." ”

Mo Li twisted her waist-length black hair into a complicated hairstyle by the combing lady and the maid. After combing his hair, he was symbolically fed three half-baked dumplings, and then began to put on the headdress, and after all kinds of beads and gold and jade were inserted into his head, it was already half of the morning.

"Is the bride dressed up? I'm here to give the dowry! A sweet voice came from outside the door.

Mo Li twisted her stiff neck and turned her head, only to see Sun Xiaoxue and a young woman enter the house together.

At the birthday banquet of Mrs. Huang, Mo Li had a relationship with this woman and knew that she was the eldest grandson and daughter-in-law of Mrs. Sun of the Marquis of Qingyuan.

"Young Mrs. Sun, smile!" Mo Li wanted to get up to greet him, but was pressed back to the chair by Zhuang's step.

Zhuang smiled and said, "Miss Jinxi, you're welcome, Sister Xue'er and I came to see if there was anything we could do to help." ”

Sun Xiaoxue is a straightforward character, and her sister-in-law is not the kind of person who twists, so the relationship between the two sister-in-law is very good, and the Zhuang family is naturally a little closer to Mo Li.

"You're almost ready, sit down." Mo Li didn't say anything polite to them, pointed to his head, and complained, "These things are too heavy, and I can't stand it with my head up." ”

Sun Xiaoxue laughed unceremoniously: "If you want to get married, you can't stand this tiredness?" ”

Zhuang covered his mouth with a handkerchief and said: "The most important thing in a woman's life is this day, and it is worth it to be tired." ”

Mo Li glanced at Sun Xiaoxue, who was in schadenfreude, and said angrily: "You are laughing at me now, and your own day is not far off." ”

Sun Xiaoxue didn't care, the three of them talked and laughed for a while, which made Mo Li's previous sleepiness a lot less.

"Cousin, who are these two ......?" Several young ladies and young ladies from the side branch of the Mo family had already withdrawn, and only Mo Jinning was still in the house, seeing that the three of them were talking and laughing, they came over and asked.

Mo Li was slightly stunned and sighed in her heart, but she still introduced her aunt and sister-in-law.

"It turned out to be Mrs. Sun and Miss Sun, and Jin Ning gave a gift to the two." Mo Jin bowed.

Zhuang just nodded slightly, Sun Xiaoxue looked at Mo Li, then at Mo Jinning, slightly hooked the corners of her lips in response, and then turned back to talk to Mo Li.

In fact, the aunts and sisters-in-law of the Sun family also understood that Mo Li did not take the initiative to introduce Mo Jinning to them, she must be a distant relative of the Mo family, and her identity was not enough to intersect with them. Mo Jinning's behavior is obviously very rude, but for the sake of Mo Li's face, the two of them can't say anything, who doesn't have a few relatives who can't see it.

Mo Jinning didn't have this awareness, so she sat directly next to Sun Xiaoxue, even if she couldn't interject, she listened with a smiling face next to her.

Mo Li glanced at her, showed an apologetic smile to the Zhuang family and Sun Xiaoxue, and said to Mo Jinning: "Jinning, there is nothing to do here, you go to the side hall to help your sister-in-law entertain guests." ”

In the side hall are the ladies of various provinces, and the Duan family will entertain them there, the reason why Mo Jinning didn't go is because it is not her turn to entertain those ladies and young ladies if she goes, so it is better to stay here and get close to her cousin.

But Mo Li, the master, said so, so she naturally couldn't go, so she could only get up and retreat to the Sun family's sister-in-law.

"Whose girl is this?" As soon as Mo Jinning left, Sun Xiaoxue lowered her voice and asked.

Mo Li smiled helplessly: "A distant uncle's family, her father is the master bookkeeper in Taichang Temple. ”

Sun Xiaoxue nodded clearly, the master of Taichang Temple can be regarded as an official in the eyes of ordinary people, but in their eyes, he can only be regarded as a small official. The daughters of such families naturally have no chance to make friends with them, and it seems that Mo Jinning's morale is still high.

……

From the master to the subordinates in the Bac Ninh Palace, whether it is true or false, everyone's face is beaming.

Murong Chu first went to the ancestral hall to offer incense to his biological mother, Princess Jiang, and when the auspicious time came, the procession to welcome relatives swept out of the gate of the Beining Palace.
