Twenty loads, everyone sighed at Carpenter Chen's love for his daughter, and the county lady may not have so much dowry when she gets married.
Chen Xiujuan also went back to her parents' house on this day, and she slept with Chen Xiuyan that night, after all, she took over a big task to teach Chen Xiuyan how to spend candles in the cave.
April 18, the auspicious day of the zodiac, the heavens are beautiful, Chen Xiuyan was pulled up early in the morning to dress up, took a shower, put on a red wedding dress, red from the inside out, belly pockets, obscene pants, middle clothes and pants, chest-length skirts, outer shirts and clothes are all there, but the style is exquisite, Chen Xiuyan has to admit that the sister-in-law Ning's female red and embroidery are very good.
The belly pocket is embroidered with the pattern of mandarin ducks playing in the water; On the skirt is an elegant and atmospheric peony, embroidered carefully, decorated at the corners, the whole is simple and generous; The outer shirt is a placket style, and the embroidered heel skirt is the same pattern, which is a complete set at a glance, and it is also hemmed and sleeved, which is more exquisite.
The hijab is happy to the eyebrows, embroidered with magpies, and the shoes are red cloth shoes embroidered with peonies, and they are red from head to toe.
opened the face with cotton thread, drew the eyebrows, and applied grease powder, Chen Xiuyan blocked it to preserve the appearance of light makeup, and the young skin was perfect with a little embellishment, otherwise the painting would add to it.
For breakfast, Chen Xiuyan ate an egg and a white steamed bun, and today she mainly dried it.
After the Mao, the family is lively, relatives, friends, and people in the village have come to the Chen family, enter the house to see the bride, of course, the most important thing is to eat the banquet, the Chen family is rich, everyone looks at the half of the pork, the grass carp is alive, and the hard dishes are all over, and they are diligent to help choose vegetables together, otherwise they are chatting with each other.
At the moment, Chen Xiuyan, who was sitting in the room, heard the festive blowing sound, and the kiss came, of course she couldn't see it, and was urged to take a sip of lipstick and cover her red hijab.
Although she couldn't see it, her ears were sensitive and she could hear all the sounds outside.
"Luo Xiucai is really generous, using eight sedan chairs to pick up relatives, pay more attention to Xiuyan, who doesn't use donkey carts, it's the first time I've seen a sedan chair carried by eight people."
"That's it, although he rides a donkey, Luo Xiucai looks good, and he looks good in everything."
"I'm really envious, Chen Xiuyan will directly become a talented lady, if Luo Xiucai rises again, she can still become a lady, it's really a blessing."
……
After Luo Wenqian got off the horse, he read a few poems with good meanings and festive meanings, divided a lot of cakes and sugars, and successfully entered Chen's house.
Chen Muzhu, as Chen Xiuyan's eldest brother and the eldest son of the family, is responsible for carrying Chen Xiuyan on the sedan chair, Liu is in a good mood, but the girl is really on the sedan chair, she can't help but red eyes, and tells Chen Xiuyan on the side of the sedan chair carefully, asking her to treat her father-in-law and mother-in-law well.
Compared with the carriage, Chen Xiuyan felt that the sedan chair was more stable, and it took almost an hour to walk from Chenjiacun to Luojiatang, and it was almost time when the group arrived.
As soon as the sedan chair stopped, Chen Xiuyan sat more dignified, Luo Wenqian personally lifted the sedan curtain, through the bottom of the red hijab, Chen Xiuyan saw a piece of red silk stretched in, stretched out his hand to pull it, and then the person was led down the sedan chair.
In ancient times, Chen Xiuyan arrived at Luojiatang and was led to a room, and then waited, and waited for the auspicious time to visit the church.
"Take a pad when you're hungry." Luo Wenqian left and went to Chen Xiuyan to stuff a bag of things in his hand, and when the room was empty, Chen Xiuyan opened it, and saw that there were exquisite pastries inside, and he was happy and considerate.
As soon as I shoved one into my mouth, the door opened again.
"Little auntie."
As soon as she heard the voice, Chen Xiuyan knew that it was Luo Mingxin who came.
"Mingxin."
"Aunt Xiao heard it, Uncle asked me to accompany you, I poured sweet soup for you, don't worry about Gong, there is a clean Gong bucket in the clean room." Luo Mingxin handed in a bowl of sweet soup from under the red hijab.
"The aggrieved little aunt eats like this, and the hijab has to wait for the uncle to lift it in person after worshipping." Luo Mingxin said with a smile.
Chen Xiuyan was thirsty, and the bowl was red bean soup, but the red beans were all sinking to the bottom of the bowl, and the taste of the soup was not much better than the taste of water except for some sweetness.
"Little aunt, I cooked it myself, and the people who came to help the cook today are busy cooking the dishes for the wedding banquet."
Chen Xiuyan suddenly felt a little worried about the days ahead, Luo Mingxin's cooking skills were very different from He's, her appetite.
"I don't cook much, usually my uncle and eldest brother make it, what I cook may not be delicious, little aunt, you will just take it."
Chen Xiuyan's heart is alive again, and she feels that there is still hope.
Chen Xiuyan drank all the soup very face-savingly, but the red beans were not very ripe, so she couldn't eat them, but this already made Luo Mingxin feel recognized.
At the moment of Shen, the auspicious time had arrived, Luo Wenqian led Chen Xiuyan into the main hall, but from the surrounding voices Chen Xiuyan could tell that there were not many people in the room.
"Worship heaven and earth."
Locke's parents have passed away, no one sits on the main seat, and the newlyweds face the empty seat "two worship the high hall".
"Husband and wife worship each other."
After the worship was over, Luo Wenqian pulled Chen Xiuyan back to the room with red silk, and when the red hijab was removed, Chen Xiuyan finally saw completely.
The first thing to enter is Luo Wenqian's handsome face, he is also dressed in red, his handsome appearance directly suppresses the red, the shoulders are wide and the waist is narrow, the inverted triangle figure, with a tall posture, and the hormones that walk properly, Chen Xiuyan stared straight at it, but Luo Wenqian turned his ears red and looked away.
"Together."
"Feed dumplings, do you want to give birth?"
Chen Xiuyan said "sheng" very cooperatively.
Then all the people in the house went out, leaving only the newlyweds.
"I'll ask Mingxin to bring you the food to the house later, and when you're done, you can wash up first, and the small room on the left is the clean room." Luo Wenqian explained the structure of the room, and his eyes didn't dare to look directly at Chen Xiuyan, all because Chen Xiuyan's eyes were too hot.
"I'll go out and toast first." Luo Wenqian ran away a little in despair, and saw Chen Xiuyan smile and bend his eyes, it was really innocent.
When there was only herself left in the room, Chen Xiuyan was no longer restrained, she stood up and pulled her body, and after almost a day of sitting, everyone was stiff, walking around while stretching, looking around.
The room is not small, the middle of the opposite door against the wall is the bed, the left side of the bed is the wardrobe, and the right side is the dresser, these Chen Xiuyan are familiar, it is his dowry; There is a kang on one side of the door, and a wooden box and a kang table are placed on the kang, and the middle seat between the kang and the bed is still very sufficient, and a round table and round stool are placed.
There is a door on the left side of the room, and the clean room inside is not large, with a bucket, a bathtub and a washstand; There is also a door on the right, which is a study with bookshelves on three sides, and a desk and chair on the window side, on which the four treasures of the study are neatly arranged.
As soon as Chen Xiuyan came out of the study, the door of the room opened, and Luo Mingxin came in with a large tray.
