Su Mansion.
Su Li was called up early in the morning to dress up. A dozen makeup ladies sent by the palace were busy around her, while several girls such as Ling'er, Su Canzhi, Hua Wuyue, Xu Qiang, etc. were gathered outside to see what was new.
"Oh my god, this marriage is really troublesome!" Xu Qiang is a talker, so she can't be idle at this time. Seeing Su Li sitting there like a doll, the makeup girl could do her eyebrows and comb her hair. He was dazzled by the sight, "Ali, your butt hurts after sitting for so long, right?"
"Isn't that true?" Su Li smiled back, "My waist is almost broken! Mommy, when will it feel better? I think it's almost done, right?"
"Mom, don't worry! You haven't put on the phoenix crown yet!" The makeup lady smiled and inserted a phoenix hairpin into her carefully combed bun. She stretched out her hand and waved to the palace maid holding the gold box next to her, "Okay. It’s time to wear the crown!”
The palace maid nodded and opened the gold box. At that moment, the room was filled with brilliance!
Xu Qiang covered her eyes and exaggeratedly shouted: "Ah, my dog eyes are about to be blinded! Your Majesty, are you inlaying all the rare treasures in the world into this phoenix crown?"
"Isn't that true?" Hua Wuyue also tutted her lips repeatedly, "Look, every one of them is worth a fortune! Ah Li, if you wear this hair crown, it will feel like you are carrying more than a dozen cities on it!"
"There are more than a dozen!" Su Canzhi stretched out his fingers to count. "Look at the ruby in the middle. Just one is worth several cities! Not to mention the diamonds and jewelry here! Your Majesty built it in a short time. It takes a lot of effort to create such a hair crown, right?"
"That's right!" Zhuang Niang smiled back, "It's the same as the wedding dress worn by the empress. It was made by three teams of people taking turns! It's just that the appearance is more troublesome than the wedding dress! Your Majesty's heart for the empress is evident! Love is truly stronger than gold!"
"Your Majesty treats me very well!" Su Li caressed the dazzling phoenix crown, feeling happy and touched.
She usually had little interest in jewelry and beautiful clothes, but at this moment, seeing this gorgeous and splendid head and face, she could also deeply feel Xiao Lin's heavy heart.
"Slave, put it on for your Majesty!" Zhuang Niang said with a smile, "At this moment, the ceremonial guard that wants to welcome the bride is also on the way! Let's get ready quickly, don't miss the auspicious moment!"
Su Li nodded, straightened her wedding clothes, and sat upright. Zhuang Niang carefully put the phoenix crown on her head, adjusted it a little, turned to look in the mirror, and couldn't help but praise her: "My empress is naturally beautiful and fragrant, and with this This phoenix crown makes it even more graceful, luxurious and stunningly beautiful!"
Everyone nodded and praised repeatedly, just as Madam Zhou came in with Mrs. Su on her arm, they were extremely surprised to see Su Li!
"Ah Li's outfit has the majesty of Feng Lintian!" Mrs. Su smiled from ear to ear, "It's beautiful! It's really beautiful!"
"A golden phoenix flew out of our Su family!" Ms. Zhou also laughed so hard that she couldn't even see her eyebrows. She wanted to say something else, but she twisted her head and saw Su Ning sitting beside her in a daze. He pulled her aside with a smile. He whispered: "Sister-in-law, as a mother, don't just watch, she is about to get on the sedan chair! Have you told her what you should tell her?"
Su Ning, who was already distracted, was startled when she heard these words: "What are you telling me?"
"What did you tell me?" Zhou chuckled and pinched her lightly.
Su Ning understood instantly, but a strong feeling of rejection arose in her heart, and the corners of her lips that had been reluctantly raised instantly dropped.
Mrs. Zhou misunderstood that she had forgotten this matter, rolled her eyes at her, and snickered: "I know how careless you are, and you can't remember this! It doesn't matter, my mother and I have thought of it a long time ago, and have prepared the bottom of the box Something! However, you still have to say something later! This girl, A Li, doesn’t understand anything on this matter! You can speak more clearly later!"
Su Ning forced a smile and nodded.
"Okay, I'll go back and get the booklet at the bottom of the box!" Mrs. Zhou smiled, waved her hand towards Mrs. Su, and left like a gust of wind.
Old Madam Su understood and saw that Su Li had dressed up, so she sent Su Canzhi and others out, leaving Su Ning and Su Li alone in the room. She was afraid that Su Li would be shy, so she also avoided going out with a smile.
Su Li has a keen hearing. She had heard the conversation between Zhou and Su Ning just now, although she and Xiao Lin had also heard it a little before.
I discussed the matter in the boudoir for a while, but now that I was face to face with my mother, I still blushed unconsciously when I thought of what she was going to say next.
Su Ning's mind was not focused on this at all.
When Su Li was dressing up just now, she had been in a daze, thinking about what Princess Zhao had said to her before.
She wanted Su Li to wake up before the wedding, so that she would not have to lose her virginity to Xiao Lin and face more entanglements in the future.
Princess Zhao gave a plan at that time, and Su Ning made preparations according to her plan, but when she saw Su Li's sweet look about getting married, she hesitated again.
As a mother, she naturally did not want to spoil her daughter's happiness. She was full of sweetness and joy at this moment. If she really woke up on the wedding night, recalling those painful pasts would be a bit too cruel.
But then I thought again, Su Li regretted the evil relationship with Dong Lin when she was in heaven. If it were herself, she must also hope that she can wake her up as soon as possible, right?
These two thoughts had been fighting until now, when she heard Zhou's words, she made up her mind instantly.
Ah Li must wake up on the wedding night!
She was abandoned by Dong Lin and felt extremely regretful. As a mother, how could she watch her jump into the fire pit again and suffer the heart-burning pain again?
Su Ning took a deep breath, stood up, walked to the door, and waved to the maids outside, signaling them to bring in all the things she had prepared.
Su Li looked at her, a little confused.
She originally thought that Su Ning would tell her those embarrassing things, but she didn't want to say anything to her mother. She just asked the maid to carry a big box in and put it in front of her.
"Mother, what is this?" she asked curiously.
"It's... plum blossoms!" Su Ning looked at her, "The plum blossoms I got from the tavern's plum grove!"
With that said, he opened the box and found it was filled with plum blossoms.
Su Li was stunned: "So many folds? What is mother going to do with these flowers?"
"Marriage!" The corners of Su Ning's lips curled up slightly with a sad smile, which made Su Li's heart skip a beat.
When dressing up today, everyone was laughing and joking. Although her mother occasionally laughed, Su Li could tell that she was forcing a smile.
It was obvious that she was not satisfied with her marriage to Xiao Lin, but she didn't stop it because she didn't want to spoil her happiness when the mother and daughter met for the first time.
But although she was dissatisfied before, her face was at least a little unhappy and impatient.
The smile at this moment made her feel cold and gave her an unknown premonition.
