She looked at the gift lists, and she had received hundreds of them in the past few days. She was afraid that there would be more. The most terrifying thing was the day of the hair extension ceremony, which might take several days.
The first three days are for preparation, the middle day is for ceremony, and the last three days are for finishing.
No matter what, it takes ten days.
However, she was also secretly happy that these people were so considerate that they came to give gifts two months in advance and did not come together on the right day, otherwise something would definitely go wrong and she would be extremely busy.
Now that we have sorted it out, it will be easier to arrange manpower and count the guests coming.
I just didn't expect people like the Chu family, Wan family, and Cui family to give gifts two months in advance. It's really rare for them to be so easy-going and kind.
Generally speaking, everyone's gift-giving habit is that the host sends out invitations first, and then the guests start sending gift orders, giving the host a few days to prepare.
When the day comes, people will come to your door with gifts to congratulate you.
It takes at most ten days and a half to send invitations to the official date. Two months like her is really rare.
But the key is that she didn't send an invitation at all.
She felt that it was just her fifteenth birthday, whether it was her wedding or her sixtieth birthday, there was no need to be so grand.
But she also knew that in ancient times, the hairpin ceremony for girls and the crown ceremony for men were both very important days.
In ancient times, people generally only had fragmented birthdays, births, coming-of-age ceremonies, marriages, fifty and a half hundred years, sixty sixties, seventy years of knowing destiny, etc. These whole life spans are very important.
In ancient times, people's life span was short. If they were over sixty, they would be considered good, and if they were seventy, they would be considered very long-lived. That's why they had to do something big.
For young people, the first few festivals are the most important. The Coming of Age Ceremony represents that a person has officially grown up, is recognized by everyone, and can participate in social activities openly and independently.
It also means that they can start talking about getting married, having children, etc.
Therefore, no matter how poor the family is, the coming-of-age ceremony still needs to be held. Even if it is a little shabby, guests still need to be entertained, and then an elder with high moral character will be invited to insert a hairpin or wear a crown.
As for the hairpin ceremony, the parents preside over it, and then invite an official guest to insert the hairpin for the hairpin recipient. The ceremony is very complicated and grand.
In the previous life, Shen Mingzhu was busy thinking of ways to attract Xiao Che's attention, so she had no intention of doing this. Moreover, Shen Can and the old lady didn't pay attention to it at that time. Madam Liu could even pretend not to mention it, just like that.
Got it done.
It seems that in this life, I can't ignore it even if I want to.
She originally thought that she would just invite the fourth aunt and Concubine Xie to have some fun, but she didn't expect to invite others.
I didn’t expect so many people to come. The scale was a bit beyond imagination.
Xiao Xian told her not to worry. What battles had he not seen before?
He experienced a palace change when he was eight years old. Although he has always kept a low profile, others have always refused to let him keep a low profile, so he is used to seeing big storms.
It was just a haircut gift, so he wasn't worried. Seeing Shen Mingzhu looking a little worried, he was happy because he finally had the time to help her.
Moreover, as soon as she is married, he can send someone to propose marriage and then wait to marry her.
Thinking that she was going to become his little wife, Xiao Xian smiled from ear to ear. Even Wen Songzhi, Shen Mingtang and others a few steps away could feel his eagerness and joy.
