Lucky not to forget

Chapter 98
Last night, the gates of all the gardens were unlocked, but the courtyard where the lights were still brightly lit, Xi Niang and several wives pulled her to sit on the kang, talking and laughing, and told her that there should be taboos when they get married tomorrow. I talked about the saddle and the threshold in detail, and I was talking about the anecdote about Mrs. Tan's marriage. It was reported outside that the princess was coming, and everyone got up to salute. Don't wait for the tea and let them sit. Princess Yan laughed, "At least hurry to get the dowry The purchase is complete, Qiangong bed, red cabinet, spring stool, toilet, children and grandchildren bucket, as well as gold beads jewelry, makeup python silk and satin, four seasons clothes, etc., scattered about 68 liters, good boy, you can't think too little. "
The bridesmaids were stunned, "Only the palace has such a grandeur. In the past three or five hours, it has been so thoughtful. The girl has recognized her family as a good relative. It's like a prince or princess marrying his own daughter."
68 Carrying a lot of dowry is really a lot, and Princess Yan has done a lot of hard work. The thousand taels of gold that was hired to Xie's family was cheated by Pei Zhen. Feeling extremely guilty, he held her arm and said, "The prince and concubine's love Chunjun can't afford it. Such a waste of money makes me feel better."
Princess Yan pointed at her and said to the crowd, "Look at this child, he still eats like a prince and concubine, but it hurts me in vain!" Then she turned to her and said, "You marry from me, and everyone in Peking knows that Prince Yan's mansion Wouldn’t it be shabby to marry a daughter without even a dowry? You call us parents, these are what we should do, and what we mean by being parents. A good son-in-law in the world is one of the pillars for governing the country, even mountains of gold and silver cannot be found."
Everyone was ready, Princess Yan looked at the hour on the water leak and said, "Rest early today, tomorrow is the day, you are busy, the bride has slept enough to support her, and her face is so serious, my uncle just saw it." I like it." Turning around, he ordered the mother-in-law to arrange a room for the ladies, but he didn't leave, but sat down at the crescent table.
The wives laughed, looked at Weiyun Danyue and joked, "Let's go quickly, the two mothers have to confess their private affairs, if you are willing to stay and listen, don't leave, anyway, girls will be married to their son-in-law when they grow up, sooner It's good to know."
The two maids understood after hearing this, their ears turned red suddenly, and they looked at each other in a low voice, "The servants retreat to the side room first, the girls will call us if they need anything."
Wu Wang nodded, and they backed out and closed the door.
Princess Yan lowered her head and took out a picture scroll from her sleeve pocket, and took a palm-sized eight-treasure enamel box and put it on the table. With a smile on her face, she fingered the small box, pushed it in front of her and said, , "This is called 'press box bottom'. It is usually placed in the bottom of the box to ward off evil spirits. It can only be taken out when the girl is out of the cabinet. You can open it and have a look."
But looking at the cute and exquisite box, and hearing that it is used to ward off evil spirits, he guessed it must be some kind of secret scriptures and spells, so he stretched out his hand and lifted the lid, only to see three pairs of small figures with different poses, carved very exquisitely. , but because it was too small, and the light was too dim to see clearly, so she leaned on the table and took a closer look. She was so shocked that she blushed and couldn't speak anymore——
What kind of secret sutra charm is that!It turned out that there were three pairs of lean men and women embracing each other, posing in three happy poses, no wonder they were all sent out, so this is the so-called private talk!Wu Wang covered her face in embarrassment and turned around, Princess Yan laughed out loud, pulled her face out, and said, "Silly boy, what are you ashamed of! This is a hurdle that must be passed on the wedding night in the bridal chamber, without this If you are not a husband and wife, every girl in the family has to be taught by the mother, you should take a look at it anyway, there is also the picture book, and you will know how to deal with tomorrow night after studying, it is better not to know everything, it is me who suffers so much."
Don't expect to get angry, the youngest daughter's coquettishness is completely revealed, Yan Wangfei hugged her into her arms to comfort her in pain, and explained, "I just married your father and king, my mother also taught me the night before, then Sometimes I am also embarrassed, but there is nothing I can do, men have to serve, this is our woman's duty, if I don't do well, it will make the men's room unhappy, if I don't say anything, I will complain in my heart, and it will happen after a long time. Heart, although we are girls from a good family, we don’t care about this, and we are good friends with my uncle, but we can’t stand the women outside coveting day by day, if there is a mistake, it will be too late to regret it. Good girl, listen to me, mother It won't hurt you."
The girl is thin-skinned, and after persuading her for a while, she sat up straight and spread out the picture book. The erotic pictures were really unsightly. She blushed and tried to look at it, then closed her eyes and refused to look at it any more. Princess Yan sighed with a smile, "It's a girl after all. If I'm a kid, I don't need to be taught. When I'm sixteen, it's natural to put two rooms in the house." Then she moved Bi Jia and got up, "It's easy to keep it. It will come in handy for marrying a girl in the future. I’m leaving, you rest quickly, I’ll come back tomorrow morning, and I wanted to ask your sister-in-law to give you a face, but it happens that she’s ill, and I have to find the right person.”
Wu Wang smiled, the elder sister-in-law would naturally refuse to see her when she heard that she was here, tell her to open up and don't embarrass her!Sui said, "Mom, don't be busy, isn't Jun'an's sister-in-law ready-made, let's just have one guest and not bother the two masters."
Princess Yan shook her head and said, "Mrs. Tan is not successful. Although both children are intact, her parents-in-law are gone. It would be unlucky to tell her to make a face. Don't worry about it. With me, the most important thing is that you sleep well now. Tomorrow will be more polite and time will be longer. I don’t know how sooner or later the trouble will go.”
It doesn't matter that he sent her out the door before going back to the house, tidied up hastily and then went to bed and lay down, bored in the quilt for a while, half happy and half worried, everything will go well tomorrow, right?With Puyang's wife here, there shouldn't be any troubles. I finally got to this point, I just hope that I can worship in peace, but I can't help but have a lot of regrets. The relatives at home are not here. It's a big rebellion. Yes, I'm in a hurry right now, I'm afraid that something will change, I hurriedly throw off my filial piety and hold a wedding, I don't know if my parents will blame me... I thought about it for a while, and I remembered Zhu Gaoxu's eyes in a daze, no longer shrewd Sharp, gray and hazy.She hesitated slightly, feeling that her heart had been pulled away. It was time to end this strong medicine. Wouldn't someone like him be able to let go of him cleanly?Or he can personally send her into the sedan chair tomorrow, no matter how confused he is, he won't do ridiculous things in full view.

After thinking wildly for a while, the clapper outside knocked on the third watch, and half of the wind lamps in the corridor were extinguished. Looking through the sunset veil pasted on the window drawer, a few red lanterns hanging in front of the opposite wing were still shaking, looking sleepy. Come and sleep with your eyes closed.

I didn't sleep well all night, and had strange dreams one after another. When I woke up the next day, my head was in a bad mood. After eating assorted gnocchi, I slumped on the couch. Xi Niang took the dowry list and reported her name. After roughly listening, they just leaned on the soft cushions and took a nap. Everyone knew that the bride must have had a restless sleep the night before, and they didn't bother her. They went to the room to prepare everything, and let her sleep until a quarter before she was upright. Go ask her to get up and take a bath.
After taking a nap and soaking in the bucket for a while, her complexion improved a lot, she came out in her middle coat, Weiyun wrapped her in a big cloak and pushed her to the dressing table, Shiquan Xi Niang, who was chosen by Princess Yan, twisted the five-color thread Open her face, twitched and pulled a large piece of hair, and half of her face was hot immediately, and she finally finished developing. When she looked in the mirror, her cheeks were flushed, Danyue hurriedly twisted the veil and put it on her, she secretly sighed that the bride It's really hard to be a son, and you have to suffer like this!

After a long while, the redness faded, and she began to paint her eyebrows and eyes again. She changed into a bright red unicorn gown with sleeves and round collar, tied up a plain silver belt, and put on a Yunxia Zhaiwen back. Everyone looked at her again, The original cleanliness and elegance were swept away, and the underside of the well-dressed clothes was radiant, showing a kind of enchanting and unique beauty. The room was full of uproar, and several happy women said, "I have seen too many beauties, but I haven't seen them." It’s so complete, where did this fairy come from, it’s really fascinating.”
Princess Yan got into her heart more and more, looked up and down carefully, asked someone to take out a gold collar and put it on her, and said with a palm, "This girl is too late, she couldn't stay with her for two years, it's a pity .”
Just as she was talking, the girl at the door announced, "The three masters are here."

Zhu Gaochi led the two brothers in, and everyone greeted them with blessings. Princess Yan said, "Are you free today? Are you all here to join in the fun?"
Zhu Gaochi smiled and said, "Today is a good day for my sister, no matter how busy I am, I have to put aside my busy schedule. My sister, at least come and see if there is anything missing. Let's also add makeup to my sister, which means to be a brother." While talking, he subconsciously turned around to look, and his smile grew stronger.
The King of Gaoyang County had an unkind expression. Seeing that girl was as beautiful as a peach and plum, and smiling brightly, an unknown fire surged in his heart, and he almost smashed the wedding cakes and the pastries of his descendants on the table in a fit of anger. Thanks to Zhu Gaosui Pulling his sleeves secretly to wake up, and then looking at those eyes that are as bright as a clear spring, the depression that has never been felt spreads to the limbs and bones in an instant--
Such a face full of spring breeze, I think I am very happy!Begging her to be his concubine, he would show him that he was so satisfied with marrying Pei Zhen, he sighed, his eyes gradually became as silent as water.
"When will my sister leave the pavilion?" Zhu Gaosui asked leisurely from the side.

Princess Yan said, "The left is only Youshi, let's see when my uncle will come to greet you personally."

Zhu Gaosui looked at the sky and said, "I guess it's almost the same, the sun has already set." Turning his head, he said to the girl outside, "Bring the things here for the girl to have a look at. Our brothers don't know what to give, so we each picked three in Langcuifang. Putting on the face, my sister just accept it with a smile."
The maids came in one after another carrying brocade boxes, and opened the lids one by one to see. The nine sets of finely handcrafted pure gold jewelry reflected the jewels in the room, and the two maids brought a huge rhombus mirror. , that is the full-length mirror used by Princess Shouchang of the Tang Dynasty, which was bought at a great price to help her younger sister dress up."
Wuwang raised his eyes to look at Zhu Gaoxu, he turned his head slightly, with a cloudy and misty look, making people unpredictable, he paused and said, "What's it worth, it's just something for entertainment."

Zhu Gaochi smiled faintly, and said, "Young Master, I think it's almost here, let us brothers go to the Kuayuan and wait."

As soon as the words fell, there was the faint sound of firecrackers accompanied by the sound of the shengxiao and suona, and the room became chaotic for a while, and everyone hurriedly said, "Quickly call the godmother, the new uncle is here to welcome the bride."
