Chapter One Thousand and Sixty-Six
Chapter One Thousand and Sixty-Six
Choose a date, buy a decent dowry, and then instruct the embroidery lady in the house to make a set of wedding clothes embroidered with auspicious patterns in red or pink...... These are all the rules of the fourth master's mansion to accept new personalities, so as soon as Erfu told Mama Qin and Aunt Yuxiu about this matter, it could be regarded as an errand to be explained, and she didn't need to talk nonsense, and the reason why she wanted to invite these two grandmothers over to give an order was nothing more than the special reason that Wu Yahe was the niece of Concubine De's mother's brother.
Aunt Yuxiu still knows a lot about Wu Yahehe.
Aunt Yuxiu, as one of the palace maids in charge of Concubine De's most relied on, has many opportunities to deal with Wu Yahehe, an unmarried girl who often goes in and out of Yonghe Palace, and she also has a deeper understanding of Wu Yahehe's nature than Concubine De, after all, Wu Ya Hehe is in front of Concubine De, no matter how much she is dissatisfied, she has to suppress these grievances in her heart, and although Aunt Yuxiu is the palace maid in front of Concubine De's face, she is a clothed servant, so Wu Ya Hehe will please her, but she will not take her too seriously, which shows that Wu Ya Hehe is not a particularly smart person。
Of course, this is all information that Aunt Yuxiu revealed to Erfu in private.
Knowing that Wu Ya Hehe has a simple and brainless personality, although he is arrogant and arrogant, he is also considerate, which makes Erfu a little relieved, after all, this person's nature is not bad, and there may be the possibility of getting along with each other, as for what will happen in the future, then the two of them will get along slowly, she believes that she can still do a good job of a generous and compassionate Fu Jin, so she doesn't seem to be too reluctant to Wu Ya Hehe to enter the mansion.
She was relieved, and the next thing was arranged, and the speed naturally increased.
On the 26th day of the 10th month of the lunar calendar, the fourth master's mansion began to pay the dowry for a small month.
Don't look at Concubine De Niangniang said that she would treat Wu Ya Hehe as an ordinary person, but in order to elevate Wu Ya Hehe's identity, she still rewarded Wu Ya He with a pair of jade ruyi that means many sons and many blessings as a dowry, in addition, she also personally arranged for Wu Ya Hehe to comb her hair for Ma Jia's Quanfu Fujin, and assigned her own old grandmother in Yonghe Palace to be the bride, escorting Wu Ya Hehe all the way from his family's Sanjin courtyard in Xicheng to the Qiuyu Building of the Fourth Master's Mansion.
The two-story embroidery building called Qiuyu Building has been hung with red silk lanterns with the word double happiness written on them.
Wu Yahehe was dressed in a light pink embroidered hibiscus robe, his hands folded on his knees, his cheeks slightly reddened, his head hanging down, and his eyes glancing expectantly at the door with the big red double happiness on it.
She has the unique gentle and delicate temperament of a woman in the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, and a pink robe makes her more weak.
This is a girl who knows her strengths very well, otherwise she would not have given up the aqua red gold embroidered tunics pattern auspicious dress sent by the fourth master's mansion, and instead chose this set of pink-colored wedding clothes made in a hurry.
Pearls the size of lotus seeds hang down from the side of the ear, swaying slightly.
She listened to the faint sound of silk and bamboo in the front yard, thinking about the words that Eniang confessed in her ear when she got on the sedan chair, her heart was a little settled, and she finally had the leisure to observe the furnishings in the room.
The three-room new house in front of me is said to be arranged by Erfu herself, but in fact, it was specially prepared by Concubine De Niangniang to send a letter to Aunt Yuxiu in private.
Aunt Yuxiu did these things according to Concubine De's arrangement, but she didn't hide them from Erfu.
Erfu was also happy to be a hands-off shopkeeper, and seeing that Concubine De was not at ease with herself, she stopped interfering.
Because Wu Ya Hehe just entered the door as a Gege, he didn't even have a reduced version of the wedding banquet and wedding, only two tables of tables were placed in the flower hall, and the whole family gathered together for a light meal, and the fourth master obviously wanted to promote Wu Ya Hehe, and showed his face at the banquet, so he directly led Su Peisheng and others, who were close to him, all the way to Qiuyu Tower.
These women in the backyard felt more or less sour in their hearts, and naturally dispersed early.
Erfu returned to her own yard, rubbed her hungry belly, first used two bowls of sweet potato and corn porridge from the kitchen, and then walked along the corridor twice, and then went into the treasury where her family was kept, and went to choose a suitable gift for Uyahehe.
A pair of lotus golden hairpins with red gold petioles inlaid with jade carved petals.
A hairpin tiara the size of a grown man's palm, carved from plain silver and inlaid with pink crystals and pearls.
A plain silver pearl pendant collar.
......
These were all precious jewels that Erff had carefully selected, but in the end she gave up these options and chose instead a red gold peach-shaped wishful hairpin that Concubine De had given her.
"Find a suitable brocade box and put it in. She casually handed the hairpin to Shilan and commanded in a low voice.
Shilan took the hairpin and looked at it, then turned her head to look at the other hair accessories on the dressing table, and reminded a little worriedly: "Master, won't this look a little shabby?"
"This is the hairpin that the mother gave her, this is the dignity given to her. Erph said indifferently.
Don't look at the other jewelry on the dressing table that is more gorgeous and delicate than this hairpin, but it is the product of Xuancai Fang, and it is not even a built-in, she is afraid that she will send these precious hair accessories out, not only can not make Wu Ya He feel his own kindness, but may also make the concubine in the palace feel that she despises Wu Ya Hehe, it is better to use this hairpin rewarded by Concubine De to fill the number, no matter how you look at it, it is more decent.
As for whether this emerald peach-shaped wishful hairpin is a bit old-fashioned and does not match Wu Yahehe's temperament, she doesn't care.
Hearing this, Shi Lan pondered for a moment, nodded thoughtfully, and then said no more, neatly took out a red brocade box from the bottom of the cabinet, carefully fixed the peach-shaped wishful hairpin on the soft brocade filling in the brocade box, and then put away the other jewelry on the dressing table.
"There is a happy event in the house, the fourth master has lifted the ban on the two Ulanala clans, you will go over and inform you later. After choosing the meeting gift to be given tomorrow, Erfu remembered the two Ulana Lagge in the backyard who were hiding in the yard by grounding their feet, and turned his head and ordered.
Ullanala pearls, Ullanala Meier......
- These two are sisters of the same clan, and they are pregnant one after the other, and they are really very fateful, but they are outright evil fate.
Two people who don't like each other, thinking about the disputes that may arise in the Fourth Master's Mansion in the future, Erfu smiled.
As Chang Fujin, she should be lenient and generous, and treat these rivals in the backyard as her own sisters, but she is a little woman with a small heart, where can she have the leisure to take care of these rivals, she can let these rivals live well in the backyard of the fourth master's mansion and live a decent and rich life, that is because she is kind and lenient.
Watching these rivals in love fight each other, how could she not be happy!
With such a speculation full of bad taste, Erf, who should have been pantothenic and sleepless in the bottom of her heart, fell asleep with great joy.
When she woke up, it was already dark outside.
As soon as she thought that she could see the true face of Wu Yahehe, who had been praised by Aunt Yuxiu several times for her beauty, she even canceled her usual favorite bed activity, and sat up directly, without even tiring her hair, she directly lifted the bed curtain, and greeted Shilan and Shiqing who were waiting outside.
That eager look, I don't know if I think she has any special hobbies!
For a while, Erph didn't even bother to eat breakfast, washed up, groomed, changed into a rose-purple placket, and hurried to the front of the hall.
It's not that she can't hold her breath, it's just that she slept too sweetly and woke up late.
By the time Erfu bypassed the corridor, slowed down, calmed down her somewhat rapid breathing, and walked into the hall with lotus steps, the ladies of each courtyard had already arrived.
Looking at the rivals who had to rely on grease and powder to cover their dark circles, her mood was even happier.
Erf's bad taste of being relieved when she saw that others were not doing as well as herself, was really enough, she forcibly held back the corners of her lips that flew up, cleared her throat, and attracted the eyes of these sitting women to herself, and then greeted with a smile: "Your sisters get up early, it seems that they are all in a hurry to see their new sisters!"
"Sister Fujin, don't make fun of the concubine/concubine!" the women who had just sat down hurriedly shook their heads and explained.
"Okay, I know that there are new people in the house, you are a little uncomfortable in your heart, and you always feel sour, but this kind of thing is the norm in our house, like Sister Ruixi and Sister Mei'er don't understand, you old people should have been used to it a long time ago, but I still have to tell you a cliché, you are jealous and jealous, then I will think you are joking, but if anyone does something irrational, don't blame me, a sister, for not giving you face and not covering it up for you. In fact, Erfu used to make fun of the women, but it was just to ask these people not to put on that resentful face to affect their own mood, and now that all the women have restrained that bitter gourd face with deep resentment, she stopped joking and talked about serious things directly.
After speaking, she took the hot tea given by the palace maid and drank it with taste.
Last year was a good day for Wu Yahehe, and it is always reasonable to come later and late today, but how can these women who are full of food and pinching each other understand a rival in love, so when Wu Yahe appeared in the hall with a pale face, before she could say the words of pleading for herself, a series of mocking words with guns and sticks had already come out of everyone's mouths.
Uyaheheben was a rather arrogant little girl, and when she heard the ridicule of these women, she blushed with anger.
However, in the end, she is a person who understands the rules, even if her eyes are red and her cheeks are bloodshot, she still endures the grievances and physical discomfort, and makes a half-squat salute in a proper manner, and respectfully asks An: "The concubine please Fu Jin'an, Fu Jin is auspicious, the concubine is late, and please forgive Fu Jin." ”
"They are all sisters, so they don't have to be so rigid about courtesy. In the end, she was still a little soft-hearted, Erfu did not use the scene of questioning created by the women for her to embarrass Wu Ya Hehe at this juncture, she raised her hand slightly, said with a smile, and at the same time waved her hand to Shi Lan, who had already prepared on her side, and asked Shi Lan to send the prepared cup of warm tea to Wu Ya Hehe's hand.
Giving tea to the wife is a process that every concubine must follow, symbolizing the wife's recognition of the identity of the concubine.
Wu Ya Hehe will not be hypocritical in this kind of thing, she is a little shy to ask the palace maid who is waiting behind her to send the red handkerchief in the brocade box to Aunt Yuxiu, and then she took the tea bowl sent by Shilan, knelt straight on the futon in front of Erfu, respectfully raised the tea bowl above her head, and said sincerely: "Concubine Wu Yashi invites Fujin to drink tea." ”
Erfu didn't rush to take the tea bowl, but set her eyes in the direction of Aunt Yuxiu.
This is also a process, this concubine enters the door to verify chastity, and the red veil is the best proof.
Aunt Yuxiu opened the brocade box containing the red veil and glanced at it, then handed the red veil to Mama Kong, who was in charge of the affairs of the house maid behind her, and waited until Mama Kong also checked it and gave a hint of confirmation, she slowly came to Erfu's side, and Erfu also smiled at this time and took the tea bowl held high by Wu Yahehe, took a shallow sip, and sent the meeting gift that had been prepared long ago to Wu Yahehe's hand.
The lid of the brocade box was open, so that all the women present could clearly see the greeting gift she had given.
It's just that when these women swept to the brocade box disapplauded, and saw that it was a somewhat old peach-shaped wishful hairpin inside, they were all a little embarrassed, because of the special identity of the new Gege Wuyahehe, the meeting gifts they prepared were all aggravated according to the convention, and all of them were good things inlaid with beads and jade, and now Erfu is a somewhat shabby old hairpin as soon as she makes a move, and their meeting gift is a little difficult to take out, even if Erfu is deliberately dropping Wu Yahehe's face, but as a side Fujin in the side room, it is not good to overpower Chang Fujin。
This matter is not big, it is not small, and when it reaches the ears of the fourth master, it is a matter!
Just when these women regretted that they were not prepared for two meeting gifts, Erfu, who had admired the performance of the women below, spoke with a smile before Uyahehe took the brocade box, her tone was soft and tactful, and she said with a little smile: " I want to come to the big guy don't remember this hairpin, this is when I married into the house, the next day into the palace to the mother to ask for peace, the hairpin that the mother put on my head with her own hands, although this hairpin is an old thing, but it is an extraordinary origin, or when the mother gave birth to the fourth master, the emperor personally ordered the internal affairs office to make a gift for the mother, today I will transfer this hairpin to Wu Ya Gege, I hope that Wu Ya Gege can have more children and more blessings, and give birth to more children for the fourth master. ”
After speaking, she stepped down from the throne and personally put the hairpin in the hair of Uyahehe.
