Chapter 279: A cool price is higher 6
Under such a huge momentum, it is conceivable how many wines and dishes and how many delicacies must be prepared in Xianglao's mansion to entertain the guests.
In fact, since a month before the wedding banquet, the servants of Xianglao's mansion began to prepare. Xiang's family is a big family of Chu State, three generations of wealthy families, even if Xiang Lao was defeated and lost power, but the family background is especially there, plus the King of Chu Zhuang so generous reward, so, Xiang Lao did not hesitate to spend a lot of money, sent people to buy from all over the world, in order to have a beautiful wedding.
At that time, Xia Ji had been sent to a private villa of the old Xiang family, isolated from the world. It is impossible for anyone to talk about her, criticize her, or want to visit curiously.
In addition to the maid Bi Tao, there are only two old servants from Xiang's family, who are very strict in their mouths to completely prevent leakage of news.
One day, an old servant woman came in and respectfully said, "Madam, someone has asked to see you." ”
Xia Ji was slightly surprised, but unmoved, and said lightly: "Who wants to see me?"
"It was the famous Qu Wu, and his visit was approved by Xiang Lao. ”
Xia Ji didn't think about it, and immediately refused: "I don't see it." ”
The old servant woman was so surprised that she reminded in a low voice: "Madam, he came to see you with the consent of the old man." ”
Xia Ji was categorical: "No! In this world, except for a man in Xianglao, I don't see anyone." ”
The servant woman had no choice but to retreat.
At the door of the villa, it was Qu Wu who was standing.
His hair was neatly crowned, his expression was solemn, and under half of the golden mask was a handsome face.
He was not too surprised to receive the maid's return, but walked slowly out of the wall, under a secluded tree, and quietly looked inside the wall.
It was a high ground, and from here, you could see the grass and trees in the villa, and occasionally the maids and servants passed by...... However, he waited for a long, long time, and did not see Natsuhime's shadow.
It wasn't until the moon rose that he let out a long sigh and left in a daze.
It is only one day away from the wedding.
Natsuhime got up early and sat quietly. The dresser is filled with all kinds of jewelry, pearls and jade pendants...... There were also boxes of brand-new clothes in the room, silk and satin.
It seems that Xiang Lao is not a stingy man, and his dowry is unimaginable.
However, Natsuhime was indifferent and didn't look at it.
Bi Tao is depressed these days, but she sees her queen and mother eating Ma Ma fragrant, sleeping hemp and fragrant, full of energy, without any sadness. She thought to herself, Niangniang must have accepted her fate. Alas, no matter what, no matter what, women, isn't that just such a miserable life? Niangniang, a female streamer, what else can she do except resign herself to fate and go with the flow?
As soon as she thought of this, she cheered up and comforted Xia Ji: "Niangniang...... Tomorrow is the big day, so let's try it today and see if it fits......"
Xia Ji said lightly: "If you wear it tomorrow, you will naturally know if it is suitable or not." ”
Bi Tao couldn't, and went to get other jewelry, muttering: "These jewelry are all high-quality, it seems that Xiang Lao is really generous, maybe the son of the mother married him because of a blessing in disguise......"
Xia Ji stared fixedly at the makeup on the stage, her thoughts drifting far, far away.
It seems to be a deer park, as if it is Wanqiu...... She saw the tall horse, heard the noise of gongs and drums, and the lover wearing the big red flower, and the entanglement of her fingers......
