August 12th was a good day. The weather was very good, neither cold nor hot. Occasionally, there were a few autumn winds blowing through, bringing with it a bit of autumnal coolness.
Hua Ying and Qu Lian pulled Xu Qingmo out of bed at midnight and washed, changed, and kneaded his noodles. Xu Qingmo grimaced in pain.
After finally finishing everything, Mrs. Wufu came to do Xu Qingmo's hair and makeup.
The so-called five-blessed lady is a lady who has parents, parents-in-law, husband and children.
Xu Qingmo was the only female general in the Zhou Dynasty. She was very lucky. The lady she invited was the first-grade concubine of the current first-grade official Dali Temple Qing.
When this lady was a girl at home, she was known to be virtuous and capable. After getting married, she was blessed to marry into her husband's family, and accompanied her husband all the way to become the Minister of Dali Temple, receiving many great blessings. The lady asked me to come here to do Xu Qingmo's hair and makeup.
Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Meng thoughtfully chose the best phoenix crown, but in the end they couldn't use it because the queen sent a phoenix crown that she had specially prepared.
There is a huge east pearl inlaid on the phoenix crown. It is said that His Majesty personally gave it to the Queen when she got married. Such an honor is truly unique to Xu Qingmo in the capital.
"One comb to the end, two combs to white hair reaching eyebrow level, three combs to fill the house with descendants..."
Xu Qingmo looked at himself in the mirror, with willow eyebrows, peach blossom eyes, oval face, and cherry mouth. No matter how he looked, he looked like a gentle Jiangnan beauty. He was very beautiful, but not like her.
"The girl has a face that only a southern beauty can have, gentle and smooth. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never have imagined that such a beautiful girl could go into battle for her father and brother. According to the book They often say, who says women are inferior to men? Maybe she is the first one I have ever seen to do it like this." Mrs. Wufu put down the Luozi Dai in her hand, looked at Xu Qingmo in the bronze mirror, and said softly.
Xu Qingmo smiled and said nothing more.
The phoenix crown weighed about five or six kilograms, and Mrs. Wufu had some difficulty holding it. The phoenix crown made of pure gold pressed on Xu Qingmo's head. At that moment, even Xu Qingmo, who was used to holding heavy knives, couldn't help but be deeply moved. He took a deep breath: "So heavy?"
"Since you hold the position, you must bear the weight. How can the girl not understand this truth?" Lady Wufu smiled and placed the phoenix crown on Xu Qingmo's bun.
Xu Qingmo had no choice but to suffer.
Mrs. Wufu's workmanship is very good. Her makeup and hair bun are all up to date. There is no paleness or cloud-like blush as others say. All her makeup is clean and beautiful.
"Girl, girl, my uncle has already arrived at the door, and our prince is blocking him!" Qu Lian trotted back.
Xu Qingmo turned around subconsciously, and Qu Lian suddenly stopped and stared at Xu Qingmo, looking a little dazed.
"What are you looking at?" Hua Ying stepped forward and pushed Qu Lian.
Qu Lian then turned around, scratched her head, and said with surprise: "The girl is so beautiful. When she dresses like this, she looks like a fairy that fell from the sky. I can't even take my eyes away from her beauty, and I don't know. Did our uncle save the gods in his previous life, so he is so lucky to marry such a beautiful girl from our family in this life!"
While Qu Lian was speaking, she still looked at Xu Qingmo blankly. She looked naive and silly, but she made the whole room laugh.
Xu Qingmo was a little embarrassed by Qu Lian's praise: "Did you just say that the person to pick up the bride has arrived?"
"Yes, people have already arrived at the door. Our prince and several young cousins are blocking the door!" Qu Lian said and closed the door. "The prince specially told us not to open the door easily, and we must not let the door open." It’s so easy for me to marry a wife!”
Everyone in the room was amused, and Mrs. Wufu also picked up the fan from the side: "After serving tea later, when you go out, you have to let your elder brother carry you out. With these feet, you can't let them fall to the ground. , you can’t land until you arrive at the Yongchang Marquis Mansion, do you understand?”
While Mrs. Wufu continued to talk about the rules of the wedding, there was a sudden noise outside. Xu Qingmo knew that it was Meng Hetong and the others who broke in.
"...No, no, even if you have passed the previous few levels, but this makeup poem, you have to do whatever you want." The person who spoke was actually the seventh prince. I never expected that he would help Xu Yanquan block the door. Thinking about it, Zhengyang should have come forward to find the seventh prince.
Composing poems was not difficult for Meng Hetong, but now, no matter how he thought about it, he felt that these poems were not worthy of his ink. He had to walk back and forth in the yard seven or eight times before he hesitated and said: : "In the past, I was going to visit Yujing, and the first immortal Xu Zhuangtou. Today, I am fortunate to be at the Qin and Jin gatherings, and I taught Luan Feng to go down to the makeup building early. (Lu Chu's "Ji Zhuang")"
Xie Suyu raised his eyebrows: "Hey, I've never seen a groom so anxious like you!"
Xu Yanquan also refused to give way: "I won't allow you to write another poem like this!"
The more Meng Hetong thought about it, the more anxious he became, and finally he shouted: "Xu Qingmo, I'm here to marry you!"
Just when everyone was laughing, the door behind Xu Yanquan was gently opened. He subconsciously wanted to close the door, and saw Lady Wufu slowly walking out holding Xu Qingmo's hand.
Xu Yanquan's heart thumped, and he understood that he couldn't keep his sister!
Meng Hetong watched Xu Qingmo walk out slowly. She was wearing a royal wedding dress and came slowly. The delicate fan covered her face, and her curved eyebrows could be vaguely seen.
Lady Wufu walked up to Meng Hetong and handed the other end of the red water chestnut to Meng Hetong.
Meng Hetong took Hong Ling, and his hands began to tremble unconsciously. He Wenlin on the side kept patting his shoulders before he calmed down. Xu Qingmo could feel his nervousness, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise: "Idiot!"
Meng Hetong still smiled.
When serving tea to his parents, Xu Qingmo first went to the ancestral hall, knelt down to worship his biological mother, and then served tea to his parents. Mrs. Xu's eyes were red, and she took off the jade bracelet from her hand and put it on Xu Qingmo's hand: "I am the only one like this. A daughter, pampered and loved, I only hope that for the rest of my life, you and your wife will be of the same mind and respect each other as guests!"
Before the tea was drunk, Mrs. Xu was already bursting into tears. Marquis Ningyuan looked at Meng Hetong for a long time and just said: "Remember, my daughter cannot be beaten, scolded, cruel, angry, favored, or loved!"
"I sincerely follow the teachings of my father-in-law and mother-in-law!" Meng Hetong bowed his head and served tea.
After the Xu family's parents drank tea, Xu Yanquan went out carrying Xu Qingmo on his back.
