Before dawn, Song Qiu was pulled up from the bed and drowsily put into a hot bathtub filled with petals.
Washing her hair and taking a shower, etc., she obviously just washed her hair last night.
Song Qiu was very doubtful about whether it was really good to take a shower and wash your hair after crawling out this early in the morning, before dawn and the sun had not come out.
But the rules are just that.
After washing myself fragrantly, I got out of the tub, wiped my body clean, and then Huang Tao and Hong Zao were playing with rag dolls. They put on bright red underwear and underwear, which were brand new and were worn for the first time today.
Wearing underwear and trousers, she first sat in front of the dressing table. Huang Tao and Hong Zao each had a handkerchief and quickly helped her wring her hair.
Not long after, old Yuan also came with the old lady.
When a woman marries one person in her life, she must show off her face when she gets married, which is considered a coming-of-age ceremony.
The woman with a twisted face in their area was also an acquaintance. She was Mrs. Zhang's sister, and she was from Stone Village across the street. As soon as she came in, she said a lot of flattering words to Song Qiu, and then she started to twist her face.
When a girl in the village got married before, Song Qiu also went to see her. When she looked at it, she clicked her tongue and shook her head repeatedly.
Unexpectedly, it was her turn now.
She wanted to refuse, but this was the custom here. Looking at Old Yuan standing behind her with a smile, she held back.
She didn't move, and the face-twisting woman started. She first applied the prepared flour on Song Qiu's face, then bit one end of the rope with her mouth, tightened the rope with both hands and crossed it. First her chin, then her face, and then her forehead.
, twist it bit by bit.
After twisting, Song Qiu almost screamed out, saying that after twisting, the girl's face would become rosy and her skin would become extra delicate. She only felt that her face was burning. If it weren't for so many people watching
, the face-twisting woman was also saying auspicious words while twisting her hands. It was difficult to interrupt, and she wanted to stop.
She endured and endured, and after finally finishing the torture, Song Qiu felt that her face was no longer her own. Of course it was red, it was completely red with pain.
Fortunately, it only happens once in a lifetime, so I just have to endure it.
After wringing their faces, Huang Tao and Hong Zao helped Song Qiu put on the complicated wedding dress layer by layer.
Wearing several layers of clothes, Song Qiu even felt a little hot and panicked even though it was early in the morning and he didn't go out.
It is conceivable that when you come out of the ceremony, your inner clothes will probably be wet, and even though they are fragrant after washing, they will still be smelly with sweat.
Put on your wedding dress and sit down in front of the dressing table.
Old Yuan took the mahogany comb handed over by Huang Tao and began to comb her granddaughter's hair.
She combed it and said something with a smile.
"Once you comb your hair, you don't have to worry about wealth."
"If you comb your hair with two combs, you will be free from disease and worry."
"If you comb your hair three times, you will have more children and a longer life."
"Brush your comb to the end again, and your eyebrows will be straight again when you lift the case."
As she thought about it, her voice became choked up, but she held it back and continued to comb it down with a smile.
"Two combs are combed to the end, and we fly together together."
"Three combs are combed to the end, and we will always be united."
"With a beginning and an end, we will be rich and honorable together in this life."
After finishing combing, Old Yuan's eyes were extremely red.
She was afraid that if she couldn't help it, her granddaughter would cry too, so she quickly handed the comb back to Huang Tao.
Then Huang Tao and Hong Zao quickly arranged Song Qiuwan's hair, put on makeup, and finally put on jewelry.
Before the others rushed in to congratulate her, Song Qiu quickly took the fresh yam cake brought in by Hong Zao, ate a few pieces, and took a few sips of water to moisten her mouth.
Just put on lipstick.
The person in the mirror has a red mouth, rouge cheeks, wearing a complete set of gold jewelry, and is dressed in red, which is festive and auspicious.
Song Qiu looked at it and almost didn't recognize himself.
Soon, people came and left in her boudoir one after another. In short, the excitement could not stop until the groom arrived.
Aling and Lihua took Lu Jing and New Year's two sayas to see her once and then ran away in a hurry. There was no such thing as staying here to accompany her.
These few are busy outside blocking the door.
Li Yang did not come back alone. Peng Cheng and his brothers from the military camp had come back with him earlier. There were also people who came from Qingping Mansion one after another a few days before the wedding. The entire wedding team was buzzing.
It's a large area and there are so many people.
But no matter how many people there are, it's no use. If you should be stopped, you will still be stopped.
From the main gate, to the second gate, to the third gate, and then to the courtyard gate of the embroidered building, these gates are like three passes to kill six generals, it is not that easy.
After finally breaking in all the way, when we arrived outside the embroidery building, the people blocking the courtyard gate were Aling and the others.
A few people were not afraid of Li Yang. Sometimes they asked him to throw pots, sometimes they asked him to play with a machete, sometimes they asked him to read two lines of poetry, and sometimes they asked him to stuff red envelopes. Li Yang was sweating profusely and overwhelmed, and finally he directly
She rushed inside and said, "Lihua, you are also making things difficult for your brother! Do you want your sister-in-law? Open the door for me!"
Lihua laughed happily inside the door, "I am from Aqiu's side now, not your sister!"
They gave him a hard time, and it wasn't until almost the hour that they opened the door and let him in.
In the embroidery building, listening to the commotion outside, Huang Tao and the two hurriedly took the red hijab. Old Yuan took it and put it on his granddaughter himself.
The door opened, Song Wenzhi strode in, and carried Song Qiu out.
Song Qiu hid himself under a red hijab and saluted Song Wen Zhifu, "Thank you, brother."
Song Wenzhi smiled heartily and said, "You're welcome, little sister, come up."
Song Wenzhi carried him all the way out until he got into the sedan chair outside the gate.
Li Yang, who was in a state of joy and grandeur, got on his horse, and the wedding team was filled with joy, and went down the gentle slope with a lot of music.
Getting married is as exciting as it should be.
There is only this small part of the village, and it can be covered in less than a quarter of an hour, so the welcoming team came out of the village and took the official road, all the way to Ping'an Market, and then returned to the village from the Ping'an Market all the way, and then in the village
Walk around for a while and then come back to the gentle slope.
The time is just right.
The sedan chair that had just been welcomed away came back after a round trip, which surprised all the guests who came today.
But this word came out as early as when the Song and Li families were getting engaged. Now, everyone knows that although the two families are getting married, no one is getting married. There is a wedding and a ceremony.
, from then on, the two families lived together as one family.
It was the first time for all the guests to see such a wedding in their lives, and everyone looked at it very strangely.
Although some people murmured secretly, no one was so dismissive on the big day, and it was disappointing to talk about it.
After all, who in the ten miles and eight villages doesn’t know that Song Qiu’s business is huge, and Li Yang is already a third-rank official!
They are no longer something ordinary people can afford to offend.
Haven't you seen how many guests are here today?
The county magistrate of Dongling County, the pavilion chief of the town, various merchants in Panshi Town, and officials from all the way from Qingping Mansion.
