Marquis Jinning was unable to move in the name of recovering from his injuries. After a group of people went to visit him in the dormitory, he sent them away. Then, Wang took them to the ancestral hall to worship their ancestors.
The ancestral hall of Jinning Marquis Mansion is built in a courtyard in the garden. The door is locked on weekdays, and only Jinning Marquis and the Wang family can enter and exit.
Marquis Jinning was born in the mountains, and there is no record of who his ancestors were, so the tablet inscribed at the highest position is written about the ancestors of the Su family, and those at the bottom are the parents of Marquis Jinning who have passed away.
Mrs. Wang took her descendants and offered sacrifices such as sweet palms, melons, fruits and snacks, lit incense and candles herself, and then led a group of people to worship.
In the middle of the ancestral hall, there is an incense table and ancestral tablets, and in front there are futons. The descendants of the family, male or female, all arranged a place and knelt down with the Wang family. The maids, slaves and others stayed outside the gate of the ancestral hall. , you can’t even enter.
Mrs. Wang muttered something, probably praying to her ancestors to bless her family and make everything go smoothly in the future.
After three bows and nine kowtows, the male heirs of the family will go forward to offer wine and burn money to their ancestors.
After the ceremony was over, General Wang led them out of the ancestral hall, closed the door, and everyone dispersed.
Su Wan squinted for a while after returning to Wanyuan. Around the beginning of Sisi (9 o'clock in the morning), someone from Yuhuayuan came to report that Mr. Li had arrived at the house.
Su Wan quickly got up and dressed up. Since she was going out, her makeup couldn't be too heavy. Although the weather wasn't too hot, it was easy to sweat when she went to a crowded place, so she just put on a little makeup.
"Girl, I have seen it clearly. Mr. Li is wearing a blue shirt with dark embroidery of calamus pattern." Xiao Fei thought of Li Lin's handsome appearance in the green shirt, and then laughed, "Young Master Li looks good in what he wears." ”
Su Wan put on the grape-pattern underskirt that she had prepared a long time ago. It had an upper underskirt and a lower skirt. It was folded to the chest. It had a plain green background and was embroidered with clusters of delicate grapes.
The grape pattern was processed by the embroiderer. The bottom one or two are lilac (lighter than purple), the next ones are lavender, and then gradually turn into cyan. The last grape Above, it is the drool-worthy green.
Wearing this dress, she looked like a bunch of grapes that were about to ripen, and like a flower, budding, shy and pretty, hidden among the green leaves.
Xiao Bao tied her hair into a delicate and pretty fringed bun, with green calamus leaf hairpins in her hair, and finally a pomegranate hairpin.
On the Dragon Boat Festival, women should wear various hairstyles carved with pomegranate flowers and calamus leaves. There is a poem in "Dragon Boat Festival: Madam's Pavilion" that says: "The same red dress is tilted when trying to dance, and all the pomegranate flowers are jealous in front of the steps. In the Ming Dynasty, Knowing that it is a festival in the sky, I carved calamus to ward off evil spirits."
There are also various styles of calamus leaf carvings, the most common one is the tiger shape, also called moxa tiger, but there are also other shapes.
The girls of the big clan wear calamus leaves made of emerald jade, paired with pomegranate hairpins. These are the accessories for the girls of each clan during the Dragon Boat Festival. At this time, the competition is to see whose girl’s style is better and the materials used are more precious. .
After finishing dressing up, I finally put on some brightening lipstick, put on new shoes with thick soles also embroidered with grapes, put a shawl on my arms, and paired it with a white round fan embroidered with grape patterns on the edge. It was as beautiful as falling from the sky. Mortal fairy.
Xiao Sang finally tied the wormwood and talismans donated by Wang to the string of Su Wan Ru skirt.
Su Wan took a look and said, "Doesn't this look a little ugly?!"
Xiao Sang said: "The girl is extremely beautiful. When Mr. Li, the custodian, saw the girl, he couldn't even move forward."
Su Wan hesitated to speak, feeling that there were some flaws in her beauty. Just as she was about to say something, Xiao Sang said again: "The talisman given by Madam, the girl has to wear it today, but she has to wear it. If others see it, she will wear it." Saying that girls don’t respect their elders.”
Su Wan also knew this truth, and thought to herself that even though she had a little flaw, she was still beautiful today: "That's it."
At this moment, someone from Yuhuayuan came to invite Su Wan. Xiao Sang and Xiaobao took the packages they had prepared and hurriedly walked to Yuhuayuan with Su Wan.
Su Wan planned to wear this dress for two reasons. Firstly, it was beautiful and convenient. Secondly, she happened to have two sets of this dress so she could bring them with her to be prepared. If something happened, she would have a backup. , so as not to be plotted or cause any other embarrassing things.
You should also carry makeup, rouge, gouache and other items on your back, just in case you need it.
When Su Wan came to Yuhua Garden, Su Xun was drinking tea with Li Lin in the pavilion. Li and Su Luo were playing in the yard. Su Luo picked a flower and put it on Li's head, smiling like a flower. As brilliant as a child.
"Sixth girl is here."
Someone shouted at the door, and the people in the yard turned to look, only to see Su Wan walking in from the door. She moved lightly, her skirt swayed gently, and the soft undulations were gentle, looking like a girl in the pool. The clear lotus reflects the graceful figure.
She holds a white fan in her hand, and her face is not as beautiful as the rich peonies in the world, but like the water flowing from the canal or the orchid in the empty valley, gentle, beautiful, fresh and elegant.
The two pomegranates under the pomegranate hairpin in her hair collided gently, making a subtle sound, like silver bells.
Li Lin's eyes fell on her for a moment, then on the slender white finger holding the white fan, and finally on the pomegranate hairpin in her bun. He smiled and moved away silently.
"Father, mother, Mr. Li."
"A Wan is here."
Li Lin bowed and saluted: "Six girls are well."
Su Wan curtsied and returned the greeting: "Mr. Li is well."
Su Xun looked at this pair of men and women. They looked like a handsome couple, which made the scenery in the garden lose its color.
Su Luo saw Sixth Sister and wanted to run over, but was held back by Mrs. Li.
Su Luo was unhappy: "Mom, I want to go to Sixth Sister's place."
Li said: "Ah Luo, please be obedient. Your sixth sister has something to do with your father, and your mother will take you to play somewhere else."
Li didn't want to get involved in Su Wan's marriage, and she didn't want Su Luo to disturb her at this time, so she pulled Su Luo away. Su Luo looked back, somewhat reluctantly.
Su Xun looked at Li Lin and stopped embarrassing him, so he said: "Since A Wan is already here, I won't embarrass you, just take her out, and I will send her back at the end of Shenshi today (17 o'clock). "
"In addition, I have sent two guards to follow you. Please take them with you."
Su Xun sent people, one for protection and the other for supervision. It was okay for Li Lin to take people out, but someone needed to keep an eye on him to prevent him from offending his girl.
Li Lin bowed and saluted: "Thank you so much, Third Master. Jingyuan will definitely send Miss Six home on time today."
Su Xun gave up and asked them to leave: "Okay, you go, don't be an eyesore in front of me."
Really, I am so angry that such a beautiful daughter is taking advantage of this bastard!
So the two of them said goodbye to Su Xun. Li Lin raised his hand and made a gesture of invitation: "Miss Six, please."
Su Wan said: "Master Li, please come."
After saying that, she smiled herself: "How about we do it together."
Li Lin pursed his lips slightly and smiled: "Okay."
So the two of them walked out of the mansion together, followed by the maid and guards. The two of them walked out slowly. When they arrived at the door, they happened to meet Zhao Mingyan who came to pick up Su Fu.
"Sixth sister, Mr. Li is here to pick you up too!"
