Chapter 672: Giving Makeup
Liu glared at her, snorted, and said sourly, "What's the matter?" Do you think that the houses and shops given by my father and mother are worthless and unsightly? Mother knows that compared with your daily buying and selling, it is not worth mentioning at all! Now that you have the ability, your wings are stiff, and you can earn money, you look down on the dowry I bought with your father......"
As she spoke, her heart was sour, her eyes turned red, and Liu turned around and turned her back to everyone. Seeing that her mother was moving, Xiaocao immediately panicked, and ran over in a hurry, apologizing, repenting, coquettish and cute, and finally coaxed people over. Liu's youngest daughter is also because of the fact that her favorite daughter is about to leave this home, and she can't control her sadness.
I remembered that when my little daughter was born, she was a small and skinny one, and she made a childish voice like a cat. When she was a child, her youngest daughter was frail and sickly, and she almost couldn't survive several times, and it took a lot of effort for the family to withstand Zhang's pressure and save the little girl's life. In a blink of an eye, the weak medicine jar grew into a slim beautiful girl, cheerful, optimistic, and capable...... However, this little girl who is held in the palm of her family's hand will become someone else's daughter-in-law the day after tomorrow, how can she, who is a mother, not be lost? Not sad?
The youngest daughter has done so much for the family, before she got married, she was a mother, she wanted to do more for her, and she would accompany her to give more dowry, but she still didn't appreciate it, and always pushed out what the family prepared for her, leaving everything to the eldest brother and the younger brother. Such a sensible little daughter is about to get married, woo woo woo...... It's sad to think about. Baby girl, my mother is not angry with you, my mother just can't control herself!
Mrs. Fang looked at the two of them worrying about the pile of dowries, and thought of an idea and said, "Anyway, we love our daughters, and we don't want to save face." Right? The dowry is still one hundred and twenty-eight, and all those who add makeup today are put in. The dowry vacated will be secretly sent over at night after the dowry is dried tomorrow. There are also two copies of the dowry list, one for tomorrow's makeup, and one for the real one. ”
When Liu heard this, he was very satisfied, and nodded again and again: "Sister Xia, it's a shame that you came up with such a good idea." I'm going to rearrange the dowry now, stone, you follow, the dowry list needs to be transcribed by you, the future jinshi!" ”
Get! After taking the test for nine days in a row, he couldn't even take a sip of water after he appeared, so he began to help his father and brother entertain the guests' little stones, and at night he was arrested as a strong man. However, for the sake of his second sister's dowry, he didn't say a word, got up and followed.
The second day is the day of makeup delivery. The one hundred and twenty-eight dowries were carried in red boxes, and the people who carried the boxes were all dressed in festive red shirts, and the red boxes were wrapped with big red flowers made of red silk.

Such a dowry is definitely the first share of the Ming Dynasty. The Yu Mansion is not too far from the Xuwang Mansion, and the Yu family deliberately let the dowry bearer take a long detour and walk along the West City. Even so, the dowry in front was carried into King Xu's mansion, and the back one was not carried out of the Yu mansion. This dowry surpassed the grand occasion of King Jing marrying his daughter ten years ago, and set a new record for accompanying dowry.
In the next few decades, as soon as they saw the wedding procession, the people of Beijing couldn't help but think of the grand occasion of giving the dowry before Princess Xu got married. Some people envy the richness of the Yu family's wealth and the willingness of the Yu family. Some people say that the Yu family slapped their swollen faces and became fat, in order to please King Xu, a big backer. Where can they experience the deep reluctance of the Yu family for their daughter and their deep love for their daughter?
The dowry was sent to King Xu's Mansion, and the entire backyard and front yard were stuffed to the brim. Those who came to see the makeup were all relatives and friends of King Jing's Mansion and King Xu, and their identities and statuses were all leveraged, Rao was the one who boasted that they had seen a big scene, and they couldn't help but be stunned when they saw such a rich dowry.
Zhu Junyang's friend plucked him up and teased him: "You can pick up the treasure!" You have to be kind to your future daughter-in-law, look at the degree of your mother's baby girl, if you treat the bride badly, your family will not be able to come and fight with you! ”
"Don't say sour words! How could he be willing to treat his daughter-in-law badly? You haven't seen him give the county lord of Jin'an to the baby, and he can't wait to put it on his head and take it in his mouth! You only saw the abundance of the dowry, but you didn't see that he gave most of his wealth as a dowry. If he could, he would be eager to pack himself up and send it to the county lord of Jin'an! "It was Lu Hao's guy who spoke, and he witnessed the essence of this guy's wife and slave.
No matter how his friends hurt him, Zhu Junyang grinned with a big mouth and smiled stupidly. The happy stupid look refreshed other people's perception of him. It turns out that the "cold noodle prince" also has a time when he turns into a finger twister! The county lord of Jin'an has good means, and he can actually subdue such a big evil star and big devil!
Zhu Junyang looked at this dowry, but thought in his heart that the little girl would really belong to him tomorrow, and his heart was full. I didn't see each other for three days before the wedding, and I think her heart is constantly fermenting. Wait a day patiently, and he will be able to have her completely! His wife, his princess, the one he had joined hands with for the rest of his life......
The night before the wedding, Liu slept in a room with his daughter, and talked a lot, some reminiscing about the past, and some teaching his daughter to be a person. What a wife should do as a daughter-in-law also vaguely said about the candles in the cave room on the wedding night. The ancients were more subtle, and the Liu family just asked her daughter to cooperate with her husband, and she didn't get used to him hurting herself, or something!
As Yu Xiaocao, who has lived in modern times for nearly 30 years and has read a lot of Xiaohuangwen and shame comics, although she is still an old virgin on the day of the accident, she is not so unfamiliar with those things between men and women. If it is really an authentic ancient lady, according to Liu's implicit statement, she must be confused.
The mother and daughter fell asleep at some point, and before dawn, the grass was tossed. In a daze, he was stuffed into the tub and washed clean, and his body was smeared with fragrant body lotion. She was pushed to the dresser again, and the blessed woman who had been invited cleaned her face with cotton thread.
The Quanfu woman looked at Xiaocao's white and tender skin like a shelled egg, and praised again and again: "Look at this skin, it can be broken by blowing, and you can't even find a single hair, the old body has combed so many ladies and put on makeup, and it is the first time to see such a tender face!" ”
As he spoke, he only symbolically scraped a few times with cotton thread on Xiaocao's face, and then picked up duck egg powder and put a thick foundation on her, coupled with a bright red mouth and thick black eyebrows, the makeup that felt like an island geisha was really flattering. Even the maids around Xiaocao can't stand it anymore - is this called makeup? It's obviously disfigured! A few girls in Wutong and Yingchun stopped talking on the side.
