Daughter of aristocratic family

Chapter 330 Hairstyle Ceremony
On February 26, the Yongguo Palace held a hairpin ceremony for Liu Loya. The guest of honor was Qin Youzi, Princess of Baojun. The praise and rejection were all performed by girls from the Liu family who had not yet left the cabinet.

Zhao Wangshu received the invitation, thinking that the fetus was firmly seated, so he went to the Yongguo Duke's Mansion to watch the ceremony.

On the way, I heard the guard report: "Young Madam, the carriage of Princess Pingyang's Mansion is in front."

Since the death of the Queen Mother, the eldest princess Pingyang has been staying at home and no longer going out. Now the person who comes out to socialize is Yao Shanzhi.

"Go and tell the head of Yixing County personally and ask her to wait for me at the second gate of Yongguo Mansion." Zhao Wangshu opened a corner of the curtain and ordered.

One of the guards took the order and left, waiting for Zhao Wangshu to enter Yongguo Mansion. At the second gate, he saw Yao Shanzhi waiting for her.

Yao Shanzhi wore a begonia red skirt today. The skirt was embroidered with intricate peonies. As she walked, the skirt swayed lightly, as if the peonies were in bloom. When she saw Zhao Wangshu, she came over with a smile, " I thought you wouldn’t go out.”

Zhao Wangshu smiled brightly and said, "The spring is just right, the sun is shining brightly, let's go out and meet our friends."

"If you want to see me, just send me a message, and I will definitely come and visit you." Yao Shanzhi supported her, "Why do you want to join in the fun?"

"The Yongguo Duke's palace has been sent to Cambodia. How dare I be so ignorant of the importance of not participating in the hair-raising ceremony for the concubine of Prince Baojun?" Zhao Wangshu asked angrily.

"You can tell me, come on, I'll help you walk slowly." Yao Shanzhi said with a smile.

"Thank you, Lord County, for protecting me today." Zhao Wangshu said with a smile.

Yao Shanzhi raised her eyebrows, "Mrs. Yun is too polite. This county master is a very good person."

Zhao Wangshu nodded, "Yes, yes, the county master is the most good man in the world."

The two of them walked hand in hand, chatting and laughing, and walked through the corridor, followed by a group of maids and women.

"By the way, I liked the pastries you sent me last time. I asked the cook to make them according to the recipe, but they didn't taste that good. Hao Wangshu, please ask your cook to make some. "Yao Shanzhi blinked her eyes, clasped her hands together, and made a praying look. She looked playful and cute.

Zhao Wangshu was amused by her look, "Okay, I'll ask the cook to make it when we get back, and bring it to you when it's ready."

"Okay, I know you love me the most." Yao Shanzhi said with a smile.

As they talked, they arrived at the courtyard where the hairpin ceremony was held. Many guests had come to watch the ceremony. The maid led them to sit down in their respective seats.

Married and unmarried positions, not together.

As soon as Zhao Wangshu sat down, a lady next to her looked at her belly and asked with a smile: "Mrs. Yun, how many months have you been pregnant?"

Zhao Wangshu smiled and said, "It's been almost five months."

"With a pointed belly, it must be a son." The lady said with a very experienced and firm tone.

"According to Madam's auspicious words, having a son or a daughter is a blessing." Zhao Wangshu didn't care whether the child was a son, but she accepted their good intentions.

"Hypocrisy." A discordant voice sounded.

Zhao Wangshu and the lady next to him looked at the source of the sound at the same time, and saw a young lady looking at them with disdain.

Zhao Wangshu didn't know this young woman very well, and his eyes were slightly cold, "Are you talking about us, madam?"

"Yes, I'm talking about you." The young woman said proudly.

Zhao Wangshu frowned slightly. She didn't like the feeling of being accused for no reason. "The act of eavesdropping on other people's conversations is disgraceful and lacks education."

The young woman's expression changed. She obviously didn't expect Zhao Wangshu to refute her so directly. She glared at Zhao Wangshu and sneered: "I wasn't eavesdropping. I only heard it because you spoke too loudly. Besides, who can't see how hypocritical you are?"

Zhao Wangshu looked at the young woman with a bit of chill in her eyes, "Why am I being hypocritical? Madam, please tell me clearly." "It is said that having children is a blessing. Who doesn't know that in a wealthy family like yours, the most important thing is heirs?" , especially a son. If you have a daughter in your belly now, I'm afraid your whole family will be miserable." The young woman exposed Zhao Wangshu's "hypocrisy" without mercy.

"Is Madam a Gu?" Zhao Wangshu asked with raised eyebrows.

"You! Who are you calling Gu?" The young woman was angered by Zhao Wangshu's words. Her face was livid, as if she had been touched by some kind of taboo.

"Of course it's Madam." Zhao Wangshu responded calmly, "Madam likes to speculate on other people's thoughts so much and uses herself to save others, just like a worm in a person's belly."

"I remembered." Madam, who had been silent until now, suddenly said, "You are the wife Gui of the Donghai Palace who gave birth to three daughters in a row and missed her son crazily."

Zhao Wangshu chuckled, and Mrs. Gui became angry, "What's wrong with me wanting to have a son? Our Duke of Donghai has a title to inherit."

"Others are hypocritical if they want to have a son, but you are not hypocritical if you want to have a son. Don't you feel guilty for saying this?" the lady asked sarcastically.

Mrs. Gui was speechless and turned her head to look away.

Zhao Wangshu and the lady looked at each other and smiled, and they chatted about childcare.

After the meeting, the Duke of Yong'an came out, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your honor today and for coming to attend the wedding ceremony of my daughter. Liu would like to express my thanks in advance."

"Your Majesty, you are welcome." The guests who came to watch the ceremony returned the favor one after another.

The guests of honor, the patrons, the deacons and others took their places one by one, and Liu Loya slowly walked out of the east shed.

Liu Loya was wearing emerald green clothes, her hair had not yet been pulled into a bun and was simply tied behind her head.

After being raised for so long, her skin was a bit whiter and tenderer than before, but the green clothes still made her look a bit rustic.

In addition, she lowered her head and did not dare to raise her eyes to look at others, which made people think that she was a country girl who was not worthy of being on the stage.

As a burst of joy played, the hair-raising ceremony officially began.

The guest of honor, Qin Youzi, was dressed in gorgeous palace attire, highlighting her distinguished status as a county princess. She slowly stepped forward and stood in front of Liu Loya.

It was not known whose idea it was that the principal concubine should be the guest of honor for the side concubine. Zhao Wangshu's eyes flashed slightly when he saw Qin Youzi's different arrogance from the past.

Qin Youzi said in a deep voice: "On the auspicious day of the month, I will start to add Yuanfu. Abandon your young ambitions, follow you and become virtuous. The test of longevity is only for Qi, and you will be blessed by Jingfu."

Then, she combed Liu Loya's hair, put it into a simple bun, and inserted a wooden hairpin.

The admirer and the maid helped Liu Loya into the east shed, changed into her undergarment, and then saluted in front of Mr. and Mrs. Yongguo, thanking his parents for their upbringing.

Zhao Wangshu curled his lips, Liu Loya was the adopted daughter of Mrs. Yongguo, where did this nurturing grace come from?
The Duke's wife looked at Liu Loya with a decent smile on her lips, "My son has just grown up. He will be a dignified and virtuous boudoir girl in the future. Don't let your mother down."

Liu Loya whispered: "Yes, my daughter will follow the teachings of her foster mother."

Then there were two additions and three additions, and Qin Youzi gave Liu Loya the word for it, "Ruzhou."

The reason is, "As a human being, you must never forget your roots."

Ruzhou is another name for fisherman, Qin Youzi clearly reminded everyone that Liu Loya's identity cannot be put on the stage.

No matter how dissatisfied Liu Loya was, she couldn't express it with her mouth. She could only kneel down and say, "Thank you, sister, for the words."

Qin Youzi lowered her eyes and looked at Liu Loya, curling her lips into a smile.
