155. Add makeup
The days passed slowly.
Even though Rong Fuzhong was demoted because of the eldest master, the atmosphere was a little sluggish.
However, in the summer that slowly came, Rong Mansion ushered in Rong Shunhua's marriage.
Rong Shunhua's wedding date was set early on the tenth day of May.
It's just that it's already summer, and the weather is slowly getting hotter. Fortunately, it's still early summer, which is easier than midsummer.
There's no way around it.
It is necessary to choose the day when the prince of the country guarantees that he can come back from the frontier, and he has to choose an auspicious day according to the eight characters of the two people, so he can only choose this day.
After all, winter and spring are the most popular times for the enemies of the frontier.
To determine the Guogong, you have to arrange all the things in order to return to the capital with confidence.
Rong Qiaoyan followed the trend and went to give Rong Shunhua a makeup gift.
She held the makeup box, took out a gold step shake from it, and said to Rong Shunhua embarrassedly: "Big sister also knows that I don't have a lot of money. This is what I personally painted, and I invited the master of Zhuyulou to give me a step shake, called Tongxin. I wish my sister and brother-in-law eternal marriage, and we will stay together for a long time. ”
Rong Shunhua took the step shake and looked at it carefully.
The top of the shake is made of gold to make the shape of two overlapping hearts, and the bottom is the shape of a branch made of gold.
At the bottom of the heart and the part where the branches meet, there are several small rubies inlaid in the middle, and three tassel tassels are adorned with three round pearls.
However, this picture is rare, and the meaning is good.
According to Rong Qiaoyan's financial resources, it can be regarded as very attentive------ at least, it is much more expensive than the makeup gifts given by other concubines in the house.
"Thank you, Sixth Sister."
Rong Shunhua asked the big girl Qingjin to put away the step.
Rong Qiaoyan was also helpless.
Originally, she only planned to give Rong Shunhua a plain gold hairpin.
Who knows, in Lin Wanqing's boudoir that day, Miss Lin Wu wanted to see her congratulatory gift.
Thankfully, she made two preparations.
However, the congratulatory gifts to Lin Wanqing on the surface are all plain gold hairpins, and it is not very appropriate to give a plain gold hairpin to her own sister as a makeup gift.
Therefore, Rong Qiaoyan was ruthless, took out some old jewelry, added some silver coins, and made a gold and ruby-inlaid step.
It was a good reason to find a way to go for her jewelry.
Others don't know that she still has money to sell patterns, but they just think that her money is all pawned and sold.
Of course, in order to let everyone know that she attaches great importance to her sister-in-law, she deliberately cried several times.
Now, in the backyard of the Rong Mansion, everyone knows that Rong Qiaoyan spent almost all her net worth to give the eldest sister a gold and ruby-inlaid step in order to tie up her sister and make a good living under the eldest sister in the future.
Everyone also knows that Rong Qiaoyan is now strapped for money.
After all, it's a meeting gift for the grandmother, a makeup gift for a friend in the boudoir, and a party.
Even rewarding subordinates is a bit picky.
The eldest lady also heard this rumor, and was very satisfied with Rong Qiaoyan's self-knowledge and the importance she attached to Rong Shunhua.
Therefore, she was rewarded with an extra hosta.
At least, when you go out to meet people, you can't lose the face of Rongfu.
After Rong Qiaoyan gave the makeup gift, she took Miaozhi back to Xingruoyuan.
Miaozhi wanted to talk and stopped talking along the way, but fortunately, she knew that it was outdoors and didn't dare to ask casually.
When she arrived in the inner room, she sent other subordinates and poured a warm tea for Rong Qiaoyan before she dared to ask.
"Miss, your makeup gift for the eldest lady is so valuable, but the meeting gift for the eldest grandmother is... Aren't you afraid that grandma will be unhappy? In the future, she will be in charge of the family, but the grandmother. ”
Rong Qiaoyan couldn't help but smile when she heard Miaozhi's question.
"That's why you want to stop talking?"
After Rong Qiaoyan smiled, she spoke: "The gift I gave to my grandmother, although it is not a very valuable thing, it is also a fabric that cost me more than a dozen taels of silver, plus I have worked hard to embroider for so long, but there is no way to count silver taels manually." Rao is like this, but the eldest grandmother doesn't look down on our own things. Therefore, there have been other sisters who have long been talking about this openly and secretly. Therefore, this time the big sister's makeup gift, everyone is a gift, and few people do it themselves. Because of this, the eldest lady has been angry for a long time. Things have a price, but what you make with your own hands is priceless. However, there is no way, it is her own daughter-in-law. ”
Grandma Rong's words that day, although she told her own people, but when the newlyweds entered the door, some of them stared at the bride.
The little maid who played the curtain listened to the words of the grandmother, and saw that the uncle used two maids to keep the grandmother from face, and she knew that she was afraid that she would suffer.
Therefore, the little maid went home and told her family about it.
Sure enough, the little maid was soon beaten to death by the grandmother with an excuse.
The little maid's family is naturally angry, but they can't match the master.
So, he simply spread what the eldest grandmother said that day among the subordinates.
It spread among the subordinates, and the masters naturally tacitly understood it.
Therefore, this time Rong Shunhua's makeup gift, everyone coincidentally gave something, and almost no one made it themselves.
Don't you think what you do with your own hands is worthless?
Then we'll buy something.
However, we have limited financial resources, so naturally we can't buy anything good. There's no way to do it.
This made the eldest lady embarrassed and helpless, but she couldn't ask the eldest grandmother clearly, so she could only knock on the side and let her set up rules for a while longer.
On the same day, the wedding maid who disliked the ladies who gave the girl red was a few days later, and after a few days, she was scolded by the uncle who said that she was not serving well, which hurt the face of the grandmother even more.
And the ladies of the Rong Mansion, except for Rong Zhiming's sisters, the other ladies have no good impression of this sister-in-law.
The eldest grandmother didn't expect that it was just a casual sentence, which caused public anger.
After all, she is in her own house, and her concubines are very distinct.
Her mother has always been harsh, and she treats concubines and concubines even more harshly.
Let's just say that the purses used to reward people in her dowry are all made by her sisters.
Therefore, she really didn't care too much about the female celebrity who sent Miss Shu out at will.
However, this also made the eldest grandmother cautious, and finally coaxed back Rong Zhiming's heart, and also understood Rong Zhiming's mind that he only needed to be kind to his face.
Therefore, the later grandmother Rong was the same as the eldest lady-------- she was very hypocritical.
Rong Qiaoyan naturally doesn't care about grandma's opinion.
Now it is the eldest lady who is in charge of the feed, and by the time the eldest grandmother takes power, she will have long since left.
Rong Qiaoyan thought indifferently.
In a blink of an eye, the tenth day of the fifth month arrived.
After a series of ceremonies, Rong Shunhua was married off the house by his brother.
The eldest lady held back her tears, entertained the ladies in the house, and waited until everyone was sent away before returning to her courtyard and crying.
After the ladies had finished seeing off the guests, they quietly returned to their courtyard, so as not to be seen by the eldest lady and be angry.
