"Auntie still has to embroider the hijab by herself. As for the old lady, Amber is put in a box and returned to the old lady's warehouse." Qin Keqing saw that Amber was still holding the hijab next to her, because it was a complete set and this was just a trial. She didn't dare to put the clothes aside for fear that her master would look at them, so she held them in her hand. Qin Keqing saw them and hurriedly gave her instructions. Read the book
Everyone looked at Qin Keqing and then at Ou Mengmeng. They really don't understand.
"So, you really need to learn from Brother Rong's daughter-in-law. Everyone's rules are really not achieved overnight." Ou Mengmeng patted Qin Keqing approvingly, "The hijab only became popular after the previous dynasty. In the Tang and Song Dynasties, it was a flower crown in front of the beaded curtain. , when getting married, the bride held up a fan to cover her face. At that time, it was a man and a woman, the bride wore a green wedding dress, and the groom came to marry in bright red. In the previous dynasty, men and women were on guard, and slowly, Hijab became a necessity and was written into the marriage law.”
Ou Mengmeng smiled and said smoothly that she had visited the Wedding Museum and she still knew a little about the changes in weddings in the past. He picked up Jia Mu's hijab, which was also extremely luxurious, shook his head, and gave it back to Amber.
"Those who are poor like to talk nonsense when they have nothing to do. No matter what they say, they can tell the story. In fact, the inheritance of wedding clothes has existed in ancient and modern times at home and abroad. It is a very meaningful thing. Girls wear the wedding clothes of their grandmothers and mothers and go to the hospital. What a happy thing it is to have a husband you like! This represents the inheritance of happiness and the transmission of love. However, you are not allowed to wear a hijab. The hijab must be new, and it is best for the bride to participate in the embroidery. "
Ou Mengmeng shook her head at the girls below. In American dramas, there are often scenes where girls put on their mother's wedding dress to get married. She really thinks it is beautiful, but she also knows that some things are just beautified by literati.
"Actually, I guess it is that it is not easy for ordinary people to prepare wedding clothes. If they are in a hurry and it is too late, they put on the wedding clothes of their elders, and they are afraid of what others will say, so they say all kinds of auspicious words to rationalize the matter. However, it is not good for yourself. I didn't do anything, so I took out the hijab to talk about it. In fact, I was afraid that the bride would not have any sense of participation in her wedding accessories, and I was afraid that she would not have any respect for the wedding."
The girls below burst into laughter, and even Yuanchun felt that his grandmother was a narrow-minded person who never gave these girls any romantic imagination.
"Grandma!" Motoharu sighed softly.
"Okay, okay, in fact, in addition to being used when getting married, the hijab has another use. When you die, you will use this hijab to cover your face when you are lying in the coffin. This is called having a beginning and an end!" Ou Mengmeng spread her hands, "So I don’t even want to touch it now.”
Everyone laughed together again, but their hearts were heavy. The old lady gathered them together because she actually knew that she had only a few years left. She wanted to teach her children and grandchildren well while she was alive and let the family pass on.
Originally, Yuanchun didn't want to get married in such an expensive wedding dress, but when she saw the old lady's appearance, she fell silent again. She knew that this was the old lady's hope and also represented the hope of the family.
Her marriage is not her business alone. It is the most important part for the Jia family to re-enter the social circle. She must show her best appearance in front of others. The old lady's wedding dress is an excellent social topic. Let the world immediately remember how illustrious the former Duke and Mrs. Rongguo was. The former Duke of Rongguo was so prominent. What she is wearing is not a wedding dress, but the glory of the Rong Mansion that has lasted for a hundred years.
Baochai, who was next to her, had been following them to put on Yuan Chun's clothes layer by layer. At this time, she finally understood what difference in status meant, and what the dignity and inheritance of a noble family meant.
Of course, more importantly, she also really knew why her aunt was locked up by her eldest sister. She was so frightened that her mother only dared to come over to say hello in the morning and didn't dare to ask any more questions. She just asked her to study with the old lady honestly.
In an aristocratic family, even if she is the legitimate daughter of her aunt and uncle and has given birth to two sons and one daughter, it is only a matter of words to get through. A businesswoman like her wants to take advantage of the power of the Wang and Jia families to get a good family, but in the end if she cannot establish herself, the result will not be good. Ou Mengmeng did not expect that a small thing would make Baochai stop thinking about getting married. She restrained herself obediently and interacted with her sisters carefully, without any intention of competing with each other.
"The old lady will never touch her."
So good.
"You're so cute!" Ou Mengmeng picked up Xichun and kissed her soft little face.
Yuanchun also smiled. She liked to see her grandmother look so like a normal grandmother. Even the old lady never looked like this to herself or Baoyu. But this way, it is obvious that Sanchun is much gentler now, because the old lady is like an ordinary grandmother, doting on her granddaughters as much as she wants. Her anxious heart finally relaxed now.
Just as the meal was being served, Yuan Chun changed out of his auspicious clothes, and everyone happily helped Ou Mengmeng over to eat together.
Ou Mengmeng smiled and served vegetables to the children, but she changed the food to porridge, which showed that she had no appetite.
Yuanchun looked at the old lady hesitantly, a little worried.
Qin Keqing patted her gently and gave her some food.
Yuan Chun actually thought the same as Qin Keqing. As Ou Mengmeng said, Yuan Chun and Qin Keqing were at the top of their IQs in this family.
Princess Longchang will definitely not like her, because they have met in the palace, and the princess doesn't care much about them. In her opinion, they are all servants.
So from Princess Longchang's point of view, how could she accept a servant from the royal family as her daughter-in-law. Not even the infamous second son, even if she had a close relationship with the Jia family since childhood.
Therefore, Yuan Chun saw more than Qin Keqing, because she knew the princess well. If the princess, who was so particular about family status, came to see her specially and gave her a gift, it could be seen that Xiong Er had already made it very clear in front of his parents. This is the reason why the princess has to come.
But half an hour of attack and defense couldn't make the princess relax, which shows how much she cares. The old lady said it was okay, but she was worried. Qin Keqing didn't allow herself to ask, just because she didn't want them to worry about each other.
So she didn't ask, she just hoped that Xiong Er's persistence would be stronger. She really couldn't see her grandmother worried about her like this.
Sure enough, after dinner, Xiong Xing came and reported to Rongqing Hall. Everyone looked at the old lady. At this moment, Ou Mengmeng used Jia Mu's memory to explain the basic configuration of the dowry to these children. So that they can help Yuanchun make the dowry list. At this time, Mr. Xiong Er came, so they looked at the old lady first, while Ou Mengmeng looked at the big clock.
