Chapter 317 Niu Embroidery
Spring in Beijing
The marriage of Duke Cheng Guo to his wife was considered a major event in the capital, not to mention that he was marrying Liu Tian, also known as Yama.
At the end of the morning, relatives of the emperor, new nobles of the aristocratic family, relatives and friends came to the Duke Cheng's Mansion one after another to congratulate them. Not only did the guests look happy, but they also had unconcealed curiosity in their eyes.
Jiang Yixi could not come forward today, so Mrs. Meng and Mrs. Meng were solely responsible for receiving the female guests. With the lessons learned from the last time, Mrs. Meng was full of energy.
Meng Cimo went to the outer courtyard early in the morning. He and the second master were responsible for entertaining the male guests.
Little Cuncun was dressed like a young groom, a small red tapestry robe embroidered with gold, and small crotchless trousers of the same color. He also asked his nurse to apply some osmanthus oil used by his mother on his tile head.
He also wanted to watch the fun, so he held the nurse's hand and walked out, shouting, "Look at the bride, look at the bride..."
Huang's mother coaxed, "Brother, the bride hasn't come yet. She won't come until dark."
"No, let's see, who is the bride..." He puffed out his belly and howled loudly, "Ah~~ah~~"
Jiang Yixi had a headache from the fuss, "If he wants to see it, just take him to the main courtyard."
It was all just a show, and he ran away early in the morning. Little Cuncun decided that he was going to see the bride. How could such a good thing be without him?
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
Huahua indeed went to see the bride.
The little guy started getting excited yesterday. It has been in the world for two lifetimes, and the newlyweds have watched it many times. It was too embarrassing and boring.
When I think about it, the wedding night of a middle-aged bride and groom must be like dry wood meeting a raging fire, with sparks flying. This pair is special. Even if there is no spark, they can still be passionate...
Listening to the words it muttered, Jiang Yixi blushed. That little thing was sometimes very innocent and sometimes very complicated.
Huahua also knew that the bride would not be brought into the house until evening, but she was so excited that she ran into the new house while no one was around and climbed onto the top of the bed. Lying here, she could hear the corner and see the groom and the groom up close.
bride……
At the beginning of the year, Jiang Yihui, Guo Jie, and Jiang Yishan came to Fushengju, but Jiang Yirou was pregnant but did not come.
Then, Li Zhenbao, sisters Zheng Tingting, Cui Wenjun and other people who had a good time with Jiang Yixi came here.
At the beginning of noon, the sound of drums and noises came from outside, and the bride's dowry arrived. It is said that the dowry was 128 loads, totaling 56,000 taels of silver, which can be described as a red dowry for ten miles.
Except for Li Zhenbao, everyone went to the main courtyard to see the dowry.
Li Zhenbao's heart flew to the main courtyard, and he said with a grimace, "Why can't nuns watch the wedding..."
Jiang Yixi smiled and said, "You won't be a nun next year. My fourth uncle, third sister, and sister Xue will all get married in the second half of next year. It depends on you. If you are really anxious, you will get married as soon as you return home next year..."
Li Zhenbao pouted even higher, "I would like to get married as soon as I get home next year, but Brother Zheng hasn't decided yet."
At this time, Mei Xiang came in and reported, "Grandma, Miss Niu has gone to Liudanyuan."
Niu embroidery came to the Duke's mansion together with the Liu family's dowry.
As the sister-in-law and the housekeeper of the inner courtyard, as well as the head of the house, Jiang Yixi had to care for this sister-in-law.
Li Zhenbao has heard that Niu Xiu is the daughter of Mrs. Liu and her ex-husband, and she is twelve years old this year.
She stood up and said, "I'm going with my sister."
The two went to Liudanyuan hand in hand.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw a little girl in a red dress standing in the yard looking around.
The little girl is tall, a little taller than Jiang Yixi, and more than half a head taller than Li Zhenbao. She has fair skin, fairly delicate facial features, and her eyes are full of fear.
Although her appearance is not very outstanding, after hearing so much about Liu's appearance in legend, the little girl is already very, very good.
She takes her mother's height and her father's handsomeness.
Li Zhenbao whispered with envy, "The cake seller has a high-end appearance. He is nearly 1.7 meters tall. He is also taller and has good proportions. If he were here...he would be a good candidate for a model."
Niu Xiu stared blankly at the two people walking in front. She guessed that the pregnant woman must be Meng Cimo's daughter-in-law Jiang.
Both her grandfather, grandmother, and mother told her to have a good relationship with Jiang, saying that Jiang was not only the daughter-in-law of the crown prince, but also the housekeeper of the family's inner courtyard, and Grandfather Meng's favorite grandson-in-law. Grandfather Meng praised her a lot in his letters.
More than the praise of Brother Mo.
She walked forward with a smile, bent her knees and said with a smile, "Are you the sister-in-law? I am Niu Xiu, just call me Xiu Xiu."
He is a familiar person and very courageous.
Jiang Yixi held her hand and smiled, "Xiuxiu, you are such a lovely girl. We will be a family from now on. If you have anything, you can tell me."
Niu Xiu said, "Thank you, sister-in-law."
Jiang Yixi pointed at Li Zhenbao and introduced, "She is Princess Zhenbao."
She is the famous Li Zhenbao? She is not as ugly as the legend says, and her arms are not that long... But the rumors are not credible.
Niu Xiu looked at Li Zhenbao for a few times in surprise, then quickly concealed the curiosity in his eyes. He bent down and smiled, "My little girl has met the princess."
Li Zhenbao didn't think the little girl was rude at all, nor did she regard herself as an outsider. She smiled boldly and said, "You are my sister's sister-in-law, that is, my sister-in-law... Oh, no, you are my sister. If you have anything to say, my sister and I will
I’ll help you all.”
Jiang Yixi gave Niu a hosta as a meeting gift, and Li Zhenbao took a rosary from her wrist and gave it to her.
Niu Xiu gave each of them a double-sided embroidered Jiangnan fan in return.
After a few chats and jokes, Jiang Yixi and Li Zhenbao returned to Fushengju.
After those figures disappeared, the smile on Niu Xiu's face solidified.
This sister-in-law seems to be a good person. Even if the rest of the family is good, the most important thing is that Duke Cheng Guo doesn't like his mother. I don't know what will happen to them and their daughter in the future.
Both uncles said they would not get married if they couldn't, but their mother insisted on getting married and took her to get married. My mother listened to my grandfather the most, and my grandfather listened to Mr. Meng the most...
Meng Yue, who was in another yard, was hiding in the house and secretly feeling sad.
Mrs. Liu is only three years older than herself, but she brought her daughter all the way to marry her. She must have been unable to survive in her parents' family.
Will I, a divorced woman, also be despised by others? Will my grandparents, brothers and sisters-in-law despise me? What about people with two or three bedrooms? Now that there is a stepmother, will she also despise myself and Xin?
Son?
I don’t know how long I can stay in this home...
Aunt Lin knew what she was thinking and advised, "Auntie, you think too much. You still don't know how the prince and eldest grandma will treat you? They say that the new lady doesn't threaten the prince if she doesn't want to see him.
Come to Auntie and Sister Xin. If you are hiding here and thinking nonsense, it would be better to go to the flower hall to talk to acquaintances, which would be more enjoyable."
Meng Yue shook her head and said, "As a peaceful woman, how can I go to that occasion? Third aunt didn't go either."
Nanny Lin disagreed and said, "The third lady is a widowed person, so of course she can't go. My aunt is just getting married, it's different..."
