The Red Chamber: The Rise of the Shuzi

Chapter 88 February 2 and the Ritual of Ji

Chapter 88
Looking at the light gray cunning fox in the mount list, and looking at the soul points that just passed [-], Jia Jing felt a little itchy.

It's like playing a game. After three or four months of hard work, I finally got together the materials to make a weapon, but because I don't have enough game coins, I can't synthesize it for the time being. That feeling of scratching my heart and lungs , I understand everything...

However, even with nearly [-] soul points, thanks to the blessing of the New Year, the number of livestock slaughtered by every household has increased rapidly, and such a "huge sum" has been saved in just three or two months.

Now that the new year's festival is over, the growth rate of soul points returns to normal. Even if it is a thousand points, it really takes a few months to accumulate.

This made Jia Jing's heart a little anxious...

…………

The next day was the twelfth day of the second lunar month.

Today is Lin Daiyu's 15th birthday.

It's also her birthday gift.

When it was just dawn, the gate of the Lin Mansion was already opened, and a group of servants rushed to clean the inside and outside of the Lin Mansion again.

Early in the morning, Mother Jia took all the girls and daughters-in-law of Jia's family and set off for Lin's residence.

As Lin Daiyu's grandmother, since Lin Ruhai did not continue her wife's family, she is naturally the most qualified person to preside over the wedding ceremony for Daiyu.

……

It is worth mentioning that, one morning, when Jia's mother and the others went out, Jia Baoyu still clamored to come together to attend Lin Daiyu's wedding ceremony.

Dang even was laughed at by Shi Xiangyun and said: "Jiji is a matter for our girls' family, and second brother, you are not the elder sister Lin's direct relative, so there is no reason to participate?"

Jia Baoyu wanted to play with his temper at first, but was immediately reprimanded by Jia's mother next to him: "You have to play with your temper on any occasion! How many people in Shenjing are going to come to participate in your sister Daiyu's Jiji?" Li, do you want to lose all the face of our family?"

Xichun also laughed and said, "Second Brother Bao, just go, anyway, if Third Brother Jing finds out about your troublesome elder sister Lin, he will definitely beat you up!"

"..."

Thinking of Jia Jing's anger, and looking at Jia's mother's scolding, Jia Baoyu's petty temper was suddenly extinguished like a flame falling into the sea.

……

On the other side, Lin Mansion.

Just before the sun rose, a servant girl ran into Lin Daiyu's yard: "Miss, the old lady is here!"

Hearing this, Lin Daiyu hurriedly took Xueyan, Zijuan and others to greet him in front of the Chuihua Gate.

Seeing Lin Daiyu in front of the Chuihua Gate, Jia's mother was startled at first, "My dear grandson, why are you standing here?! How can you stand in such a cold weather?"

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly grabbed Daiyu's hand and walked quickly inside.

Daiyu held Jiamu's arm with her backhand, and said with a smile, "Old lady, I'm not so delicate now!"

Zijuan next to her also hurried forward and said: "Old lady, since I took a few pills of Yangrong pills made from precious ginseng given by the third master, my body and bones are much better than before!"

When Jia Mu heard the words, she quickly looked at Lin Daiyu again, and saw that there was a healthy rosy luster in her complexion, which was no longer as sick and pale as before, and the hands supporting her were warm and strong, so she knew Lin Daiyu's condition. The bones of the body are indeed healed.

"It's good to have a healthy body!"

At that moment, Mother Jia grabbed Daiyu's hand and said excitedly, "Ancestor bless!"

Afterwards, Mother Jia patted Lin Daiyu's hand again, with an unstoppable smile on her face, "Now that my grandson's body is well-raised, I will marry Brother Jing in a few days, and our family may have another baby next year." One mouthful!"

After hearing what Jia Mu said, Lin Daiyu's face turned red, "Old lady, what are you talking about!"

Jia Mu laughed, looked at Lin Daiyu's shy face, and said hurriedly: "Okay, okay, I won't say anything, just say nothing!"

……

On one side, Lin Daiyu's nanny, Nanny Wang, came up and asked about the Jiji ceremony: "Old lady, Miss Jiji ceremony, is there any increase or decrease in the number of guests that we agreed a few days ago? I can arrange a banquet... ..."

Jia Mu said with a smile: "There are still a few restaurants, so there is no increase or decrease. You just go to the kitchen and prepare the food and wine according to the previously drawn menu."

Nanny Wang nodded, and then signaled to the little maid next to her to inform the kitchen.

……

The girl's ceremony is designed for girls who are [-] years old, and it is similar to the crowning ceremony for men.

The whole etiquette requires a female elder with virtue and ability to be the guest of honor, who is specially responsible for presiding over the ceremony and adding gifts for the jitters; a supervisor who is not low in status and familiar with the process is also needed to serve the jitters on a tray; Finally, a praiser is needed to assist the honored guest in saluting. Of course, generally speaking, the praiser is a close friend or sister of the ji.

But Daiyu has been the only seedling in her family since she was a child, so where are there any direct sisters around her?The friends are just a few girls from the Jia family and Baochai Xiangyun.

Jia Mu expresses Daiyu, and today Lin Daiyu's ceremony is held by Jia Mu as the guest of honor, and the host is the wife of Baolinghou Shi Nai. As for the praise, Yingchun is ordered to do it.

Originally, as a concubine, Yingchun's status is not as suitable as Shi Xiangyun, who is the eldest daughter of the Bowling Marquis, but Yingchun, as the sister of Zhaowuhou Jia Jing, is now a praiser for Daiyu , who dares to speak up?
Not to mention, Daiyu was extremely happy to have her future relatives and elder sisters as praisers!
……

At the beginning of Chen Shi, all the guests who came to the Lin Mansion to watch the ceremony had already arrived.

With Jia's mother's invitation, and the connections of the Lin family's five generations of princes, almost half of the housewives in the noble family's house in Shenjing City came, but there were only a few female family members in the hall official's family.

The combination of Jia and Lin's two families can be seen as terrifying.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Lin Ruhai got up first, thanked all the guests with a speech, and then announced the beginning of Lin Daiyu's wedding ceremony.

……

In the wing room of the main hall, Daiyu and Zijuan were discussing in a low voice the process of Jiji ceremony that they had practiced in the past two days, when they suddenly heard the sound of silk and bamboo from outside.

Wang Momo hastily instructed Daiyu again, "After Miss goes out, first face south, salute all the guests watching the ceremony, and then just sit on the mat facing west.

After Miss Yingchun combs your hair, you can turn to the east and sit down.After the old lady washed her hands, she would come over and give a congratulatory speech to the lady first, and then comb her hair with a hairpin.

Later, miss, you get up, and after all the guests have bowed to congratulate you, you will go to the east room with Miss Yingchun to change into plain clothes and skirts, and you are about to come out to kowtow to the master, and the etiquette of adding hairpins is basically over.

Afterwards, hairpins and crowns will be added, so there will be a total of three additions and three bows, miss, don't forget! "

Lin Daiyu nodded and said, "Mother Wang doesn't need to say any more, I remember everything!"

Wang Momo just nodded, then opened the curtain, and Daiyu came out of the room slowly...

Witnessed by everyone, Daiyu saluted first, and then she was sitting at the banquet, starting from Yingchun to comb her hair.

While combing, a little maid hurriedly ran in.

Everyone couldn't help but stare sideways at him.
