Chapter 406 Passing the ceremony
Yanxia Yunjin is very rare, and there are only two or three pieces of tribute from the south every year. In the royal family, only the crown prince will be rewarded when he is married.
It’s just the fabric, but it’s not suitable for wedding dresses. Instead, it’s used as bedding and pillows on the new bed. Dragon, Phoenix and mandarin ducks are embroidered with gold thread, which looks resplendent and resplendent.
Xie Zhiwei didn't bother to explain to Xiao Shi, so she just ordered Madam Qiu to arrange for someone to put away these misty brocades. Seeing that Xiao Ding's day is only a few days away, she hasn't finished the clothes for Xiao Xun yet.
In the next few days, Xie Zhiwei quietly made clothes in the Yizhao Courtyard. Because of the extremely short time, Xie Zhiwei only used silver thread to embroider simple bamboo branches or folded flowers on the cuffs of the robe along the colors of the designs. embellishment.
The clothes are well cut, a gown with arrow sleeves and a straight gown with wide sleeves, matching the colors and patterns properly, and the embroidery is brilliant. Once the clothes are finished, all the maids in the room agree.
Mother Qiu wanted to help Xie Zhiwei make this dress several times. She was afraid that the girl would not be able to pick it up by herself. Now, looking at the dress, tears of joy filled her eyes, "The girl has not picked up the needle and thread for a long time, and the servant is very worried. Even the embroiderers in the palace dare not say 'no' if the clothes are taken out."
Xie Zhiwei folded the clothes. She was running out of time for the shoes and socks. They were made by Nanny Qiu herself. They were packed in a box and given to Du Yuan to give to Yuan Shi as a return gift for the small engagement ceremony.
March 22nd is the day when Prince Xiang's Mansion gave a small ceremony to Miss Xie's family.
The palace has already rewarded the silk jewelry, and it has been filled with four boxes, decorated with red silk, and placed in the main hall. A pair of live geese are placed in a cage, jumping around happily.
The auspicious time has come, Mrs. Zhuang dressed up carefully, got into the carriage, followed by a mighty convoy loaded with rich gifts, and left Yuelu Street, but when they reached the intersection, the carriage soldiers divided into two groups and followed Zhuang all the way. Shi went to Xiaotianshuijing Street, and the other way went straight to Baokangmen Street.
In Jiulin Courtyard, Xiao Xun was sitting on the kang in front of the south window drinking tea, Mo Hen came in hurriedly, "Master, I really guessed right, the princess sent someone to Baokangmen Street, and gave Xie Half of the small ceremony prepared by the family was distributed, and the live geese in the cage were sent to the farmer."
Xiao Xun stood up and ordered, "Pack up the two live geese I picked, and I will send them there myself!"
"yes!"
Mr. Zhuang got off the car at the east corner gate of Xie’s house. Mrs. Qian was already waiting at the door and hurriedly welcomed Mrs. Zhuang into the main hall. Mrs. Yuan and Mrs. Xiao were already waiting, and Mrs. Xie was beside her.
Xie Zhiwei raised his eyes to look at Mrs. Zhuang, and saw that she was combing a double-knife bun. In the middle of the bun was a gold distraction inlaid with gemstones and a phoenix pattern, and on both sides of the bun was a gold-embellished heart with gemstones, and on the ears were long emerald disks inlaid with gold jewels. Earrings, wearing a phoenix peony satin skirt, and a red crepe skirt sprinkled with flowers, the whole person is golden and sparkling.
Mrs. Yuan was stunned for a while before she came back to her senses, and hurriedly greeted her, "I have seen Princess Xiang!"
"Hey, this is my mother-in-law. She looks so young. She is standing with Sister Wei. I don't know, but I thought they were sisters!" Mrs. Zhuang hurriedly helped Mrs. Yuan up, holding her airs , and told everyone not to be too polite, they sat at the top with Yuan Shi.
"Sister Wei, come here quickly and let me have a look!" When Xie Zhiwei had no choice but to come over, Princess Xiang took Xie Zhiwei's hand and said to Yuan Shi, "My mother-in-law doesn't know. I was overjoyed when I gave us Ah Xun to be the princess of the county. I wished I could wait a day to welcome people in. I said a long time ago that this small order should be made sooner, who knows, that child Ah Xun insisted on dragging at this time."
Naturally, it was difficult for her to ask, and the words that followed Princess Xiang came again.
"I'm dissatisfied with my mother-in-law, saying that today I have to do two more weddings." After finishing speaking, she deliberately put off the trick, and ordered Madam Ji, "Hurry up and let someone bring Xiao Dingli up!"
A box of silk and satin, a box of gold ornaments, a box of gems such as jade and agate, and a box of clothes made in the palace.
Mr. Xiao and the others stared straight at the eyes, but Mrs. Yuan was all focused on the "two happy events" mentioned by Mrs. Zhuang. When she saw that there were no live geese, she couldn't help feeling flustered and didn't know what to do?
"Oh, my concubine, did they send those live geese to the dealer?" Nanny Ji slapped her thigh, and said loudly, regardless of the occasion.
"This, isn't it?" Zhuang glanced at Xie Zhi from the corner of his eyes, seeing that she was still extremely calm at this time, she couldn't help but sneered in her heart, pretending, pretending, it's this time, and she can still pretend, Xiao Xiao Age, scheming is quite deep.
In front of the empress, Xie Zhiwei said that the Zhuang family was a merchant, and there was indescribable contempt in his eyes, so the Zhuang family held a grudge against Xie Zhiwei. She just wanted to use her natal niece as Xiao Xun's concubine. Is this too much? ?
If it wasn't for the emperor's sudden move to bestow the marriage, Xiao Xun's concubine position would have been Xie Zhiwei's turn?
The eldest daughter of a bereaved wife is still the princess of Xiao Xiangjun, she is simply ignorant!
Yuan Shi almost passed out. This is Meimei's small Ding Ceremony. Sure enough, the mother-in-law did not treat the concubine well. If Mei Mei is married, how will her life be?
Mrs. Yuan really wanted to say that since there were no live geese in the small ceremony, this small ceremony would not count and the marriage would be ignored. However, this matter was so important that she really could not decide it.
Mrs. Zhuang saw the expressions of everyone in the Xie family, and she was extremely proud, but she was very displeased on the face, and blamed, "Didn't the prince of the county catch several pairs of geese and come back, knowing that he will leave two families today, why don't you prepare more?" A couple, when was this, and how did such a mistake happen?"
Xiao couldn't listen anymore, and couldn't help asking, "Princess, what do you mean by leaving the two families? Is it possible that Prince Xiang's Mansion will make a small settlement with someone today?"
Finally someone asked, and Mrs. Zhuang also trembled, and said with a smile, "The second wife is right. If you want to say, how did our county prince catch so many live geese back? Today is really not just a small order for the Xie family. , I have to go to the farmer when the business here is over. Originally, I made a small order with the two families at the same time, but the slaves in the mansion are too insecure. I forgot about the geese on Xie's side, tell me how these people work as errands, there are quite a few of these geese in the house."
Mrs. Zhuang sighed, "Although the prince of the county is not young, the owner of the princess is too young. The prince wants to have a grandson, which is something he can't do. My niece and daughter of the Zhuang family are old enough to pass through the door. Bearing, this is also for the sake of the heirs."
