On the day Xu Qingmo got married, before dawn, the door of Ningyuan Hou Mansion was already opened. It didn't take long for people to come to the door. They were all relatives of the Xu family who came to help.
Xu Qingmo was also pulled up early to dress up and dress up. The sisters of the He family also got up early to watch her dress up.
Mrs. Xu's natal family, the Yan family, also came early. After all, they were not Xu Qingmo's biological uncles and aunts, so they all helped out in the yard and did not come to her yard.
Out of curiosity, the young daughter came to take a peek and was then invited into the yard.
Xu Qingmo's haircut ceremony was a big one. Almost everyone who had some connections had been invited, and Mrs. Xu also told the queen in the palace.
The Queen wanted to join in the fun, but her status did not allow her to leave the palace at will, so she prepared a gift for hair extensions and arranged for the Seventh Prince to deliver it.
The haircut ceremony is especially important for the daughter's family, which means that the daughter's family has grown up and can talk about marriage.
Mrs. Xu was afraid of wronging Xu Qingmo, so she made every step very carefully. The two eldest ladies of the He family also felt a little inferior.
Even if they are facing their own biological daughters, they cannot be so meticulous.
Welcoming guests, paying homage, and opening ceremonies.
The old lady of the He family came all the way here. Although it was against the rules, Mrs. Xu and Marquis Ningyuan discussed it and asked the old lady to be the one to praise Xu Qing in person.
Xu Qingmo entered, knelt down on the mat, and the old lady combed her hair herself.
Next, is the etiquette of hair extensions.
The first prayer, the first prayer, the second prayer, the second prayer, the third prayer, the third prayer, taking the word, and listening to the teaching.
Marquis Ningyuan gave Xu Qingmo the nickname "Chen", which was quite manly. Xu Qingmo knelt down and thanked him: "Although I am not sensitive, I dare not accept it!"
The ceremony is completed.
After this process, Xu Qingmo was too tired to talk.
Mrs. Xu could also see that she was tired, so she asked her to rest for a while. If anything happened, she would call her again.
There were really too many people in the yard. Xu Qingmo didn't know who was who for a long time. Madam Xu even let him go to rest, so she naturally hurried back.
The entire Ningyuan Hou Mansion was very lively. Although he didn't want to, people from the next courtyard still came with Xu Xiaozhen.
Xu Qingling looked at the crowded Ningyuan Marquis Mansion and couldn't help but begin to look forward to her own hair extension ceremony: "Mom, when I get my hair extensions, it will be so lively!"
Mrs. Wen also paused for a moment, but still said with a smile: "That's natural, they are all from the Xu family, and the relatives here are all the same, so naturally it is lively!"
When the Seventh Prince arrived, the ceremony had already been completed and Xu Qingmo had already gone to rest. He hurriedly came with the gifts prepared by the Queen. When he saw Ning Yuanhou, his face was full of apologies: "Master Xu, I'm really sorry. , something delayed me on the way, so I’m late!”
"What are you talking about, Your Highness? You are here to give our Xu family a lot of face!" Marquis Ning Yuan said quickly.
Madam Xu had known for a long time that the Seventh Prince would come. After all, the Queen was her cousin, so she always had to give her some face. But the fact that His Highness the Crown Prince would also come was really something that none of them had expected.
The Crown Prince and the Seventh Prince both arrived, and the entire Ningyuan Marquis Mansion instantly became more lively. Xu Qingling was crowded in the crowd, her eyes slightly red.
She is not a fool. Her relatives are the same, but her face is also different. She doesn't think that her father and mother can invite the prince and the seventh prince.
Xu Qingling was heartbroken, so she went to the backyard holding her breath.
Xu Qingmo is the protagonist today. He said he went to rest, but in fact he just went to the yard to play with the girls. Fortunately, the sisters at the maternal home were very good at talking and coaxed the other little girls into stunned silence. , which made her breathe a sigh of relief again.
Although Xu Qingling was unwilling, the women in front of her were all daughters of noble families, and it would be beneficial to know one or two of them.
Thinking like this, she took a deep breath, then stepped forward, pinched her throat and shouted: "Sister!"
He Jiaojiao felt a little numb when she heard Xu Qingling's voice, but she was afraid of offending someone, so she asked patiently: "Mo Mo, is this your sister?"
"My second uncle's daughter, Xu Qingling!" Xu Qingmo said lightly.
"Oh!" He Jiaojiao glanced at Xu Qingling, "She must be the cousin from the next door courtyard!"
Xu Qingmo nodded: "Yes!"
In fact, He Jiaojiao didn't have any other expression, but for some reason, Xu Qingling felt the disdain in her eyes.
The daughters present here are all the daughters of powerful people in the capital, and they are also the legitimate daughters of the family. Her father is a concubine, and his official position is not particularly high. Standing here, she is indeed out of place.
She looked up at Xu Qingmo, with a bit of anger in her eyes: "Sister, are you still angry with me?"
Xu Qingmo, who didn't say anything, felt a little wronged, but she also saw through Xu Qingling's always pretending to be pitiful, so she said: "Why am I angry with you? If I were angry, your maid came to me to beg for bird's nests a few days ago, I How could it be given to her?"
As soon as these words came out, the expression of the maid next to Xu Qingling suddenly changed. She lowered her head and did not dare to speak.
Xu Qingling glanced at the maid with shock. When she saw that the maid didn't speak, she suppressed her panic and said: "Sister, what are you talking about? Is it possible that our yard doesn't even have enough money to eat some bird's nests, and it's up to you?" Can’t you come to your yard to ask for it?”
He Jiaojiao stayed here for a few days. Xu Qingling's maid came to ask for bird's nests. She knew something about it: "Is it possible that your maid came here secretly? Then you should discipline it well. With the help of the girl's Reputation requires bird's nests, but I didn't know, I thought the people in the courtyard next door to you couldn't even afford bird's nests!"
Xu Qingling's face turned red instantly: "You, don't talk nonsense!"
A girl on the side suddenly said: "Are you talking nonsense? Just ask your maidservant. Your father is just an ordinary military commander with no military exploits. Your mother's family has no future either. It's possible that she can't afford bird's nests." of!"
"Maybe it was this maid who came secretly to beg for it!" A girl said softly, "She may not know that she can't eat bird's nests at home, but the maid sincerely came here to ask for them while licking her face!"
"If you don't have money, don't eat it. Why are you pretending to be a big-tailed wolf?"
The girls were talking to each other, and Xu Qingling's face turned red when she was told that. She turned around suddenly and slapped the maid in the face: "You don't know how to behave, how dare you come to my sister's yard without telling me to ask for something? I won’t beat you to death today…”
Xu Qingling struck hard, and Qu Lian stepped forward to stop her: "Second girl has such a bad temper. If you want to teach others a lesson, go back to your own yard!"
