When Su Wan was asleep, she heard someone calling her. When she opened her eyes, the sky outside was not yet bright, and a maid lit the lamp in the house, making the whole room bright.
Someone brought boiled hot water into the bathroom. Xiao Sang walked to the bed, stood outside the bed curtain and shouted: "Princess, are you awake?"
Su Wan hummed, then sat up. Xiao Sang heard her voice and saw her sitting up, so he rolled up the bed curtains, and then squatted down to tidy Su Wan's shoes.
"Princess, please go and take a bath. After a while, Nanny Zheng will come over to twist the princess's noodles, and then she will change into wedding clothes. At that time, Mrs. Pingyuan Hou Shizi will come to comb the princess's hair."
Mrs. Wang asked the eldest wife of Prince Pingyuan to comb Su Wan's hair. She was Murong Xian's eldest aunt and the mother of Murong Ning, the eldest concubine of Prince Zhao's mansion.
This matter of combing hair is also very particular. The person who invites to comb hair must invite Mrs. Quanfu, and the higher the status, the better.
What is Mrs. Quanfu?
She is a lady who has both parents and children in the hall.
The wife of the eldest son of Pingyuan Hou Mansion, her husband is the eldest son of the house, and he is also a very capable person, and her son is the eldest son of the house. He has already married and had children with grandchildren, and her daughter is the eldest son of Prince Zhao's house. Madam, she also gave birth to a legitimate grandson for Prince Zhao’s Mansion.
With her status, and within the conditions of Quanfu, she can be regarded as the best one.
It took a lot of effort for Mrs. Wang to invite this person to comb Su Wan's hair.
Su Wan hummed, stretched out of bed and put on her shoes. She turned around and saw that Su Luo was still sleeping, so she said, "Be careful with your movements and let her sleep for a while."
"yes."
Su Wan got up and went to the bathroom to take a bath. She didn't like anyone to take care of her when taking a bath. She always had people bring water in and wash herself slowly. Today was no exception.
It's just that taking a bath this morning was a bit strange. Thinking of getting married today, her face felt slightly hot, so she speeded up and finished washing quickly.
After taking a bath, she put on a new set of pajamas and came out. At this time, Aunt Zheng came over with cotton yarn and prepared to twist her noodles.
"Don't worry, Princess. My old lady's skills are quite good and she won't hurt the Princess."
Aunt Zheng did have this skill. She learned it from an old nanny when she was in the palace. After she got older and left the palace, she started doing this, specializing in twisting noodles for the girls in the palace.
"Thank you, Grandma Zheng."
"Your Majesty, you're welcome."
When Su Wan sat down in front of the dressing table, it was already dawn outside. People were busy coming and going in the yard, and their footsteps were hurried. She looked at herself in the bronze mirror, and then reached out to touch her face.
Aunt Zheng stood by the side, waiting for her to put her hands down before she started to twist her noodles.
Aunt Zheng's craftsmanship is indeed good. The cotton yarn was pulled back and forth on her face, twisting it inch by inch. The fine hairs on her face were twisted off by the cotton yarn, and her skin felt a little itchy, but it didn't hurt at all.
"Princess, close your eyes."
When Su Wan heard this, she closed her eyes and waited quietly. When the noodles were finished and the time for one stick of incense (30 minutes) had passed, she looked at herself in the bronze mirror and reached out to touch her face. I just feel that my skin becomes smoother and more delicate.
"Princess, what do you think?"
Su Wan nodded: "Very good."
After hearing this, Aunt Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked Su Wan if she wanted to trim her eyebrows. Su Wan shook her head. The shape of her eyebrows was shaped by Xiao Bao, and paired with her almond eyes, they looked particularly bright and beautiful. Zhi, if it were Liu Yue's curved eyebrows, she would not look so good.
After the noodles were twisted, someone filled a copper basin with warm water to wash her face. After she finished washing her face, someone called Su Luo to get up, turned around and went to put on the wedding clothes. The red wedding clothes were put on one by one. , until the end, only the one piece left was worn in the long skirt with long sleeves.
The fabric of Xifu is excellent and the embroidery is exquisite. It is a rare treasure.
The back of the wedding dress is embroidered with a large piece of auspicious clouds and phoenixes, which are lifelike every stitch. Various flowers, plants, trees, and various auspicious cloud patterns are also delicately embroidered everywhere. In this way, not only does it not look complicated and confusing, On the contrary, it is arranged quite harmoniously, complementing the auspicious clouds and phoenixes.
When the wedding dress is swaying gently, there seems to be a stream of light. Just one look at it will make you feel amazing.
However, the wedding dress was too heavy, so Su Wan asked Xiaobao to put on her makeup first, and then put the wedding dress on after she finished applying makeup. By that time, the guests were almost coming.
Xiaofei usually puts on Su Wan's makeup and combs her hair, but Su Wan prefers plain makeup on weekdays. She practiced for a long time in the past few days, and finally found a gentle, charming and delicate bridal makeup. Now that she is doing it, she looks pretty The car is familiar with the road and the movements are quite fast.
After about a cup of tea, her bridal makeup was done, but she still had to put on the lipstick. Xiao Sao brought some food and gave it to Su Wan to eat first, as she might not have time to eat again later.
At this time, Su Luo also changed into a pink and festive undershirt and came back. Seeing Su Wan eating, she ate some with Su Wan.
After Su Wan had eaten and drank enough, Xiao Sang and Xiao Bao took down the wedding clothes from the shelf and put them on Su Wan. After they put on the lipstick, they went to open the gate of the courtyard.
By this time, it was already early in the morning (nine o'clock in the morning).
As soon as the gate of the courtyard opened, several girls who had come early entered the courtyard, including Princess Rujin and Yue Shuang. As soon as these girls entered the courtyard, they started chattering.
Su Wan looked at herself in the mirror, feeling a little dazed. She had put on makeup before, and although she thought she looked pretty, it was just a little prettier than before. However, the lipstick on her lips was like the finishing touch, which made her The whole face became charming and charming.
Instead, she has the joy and charm of a newlywed bride.
"Princess Princess."
"Princess Princess!"
"A Wan!"
"cousin."
Su Wan sat on the chair, looked back at them, then smiled and said hello, asking them to come over and sit here. Then he ordered people to bring some chairs and stools, and brought tea and food to everyone.
"Thank you sisters for coming to see me off today."
"Your Majesty, you're welcome. It's an honor for me."
"that is."
"Princess, you look so beautiful in your wedding dress!"
"This phoenix is so beautifully embroidered!"
"No, it's so beautiful!"
Although the phoenix pattern can only be used by empresses, queen mothers, princesses and others, there is an exception. The bride can embroider the phoenix when she gets married.
Su Wan smiled and said: "This is the craftsmanship of Mrs. Zhang that Mr. Li invited. It is indeed good."
"It turns out that Mr. Li invited the person, and he was very considerate."
"It's not..."
Su Wan smiled and talked to everyone. After a while, someone came to report that Mr. Li and Mrs. Pingyuan Hou Shizi were here.
"Mrs. Prince Pingyuan? Could it be that Mrs. Quanfu, whom the palace invited for the princess, came to comb her hair?"
"Did you actually invite Mrs. Pingyuan Hou Shizi?!"
