[Qing Chuan + Red Mansion] Midas touch

Zuo Xi thought about the scene of the tragedy on the wedding night, so he might as well hear a few bursts of laughter.Zuo Xi opened his mouth to ask, Wanyan smiled and gave Zuo Xi some bridal makeup.

The makeup nurse not only does makeup for the bride, she is also responsible for twisting the bride's face, beautifying her skin and maintaining her hair.

First apply the face powder mixed with rose water and massage for a quarter of an hour, then wash the face and apply a layer of dry powder added with Angelica dahurica on the face, twist the face with a rope.

After the bride twists the fine hair on her face, she washes off the dry powder on her face and applies a hot handkerchief to her cheeks for a quarter of an hour.After a quarter of an hour, apply the prepared facial fat thickly on the face, and then take a piece of clean oil paper to wrap the small face coated with thick facial fat.More than a quarter of an hour, less than two quarters of an hour, the oil paper was removed, and the facial fat was gently scraped off the face with a thornless bamboo slice...

The same is true for the hair. After all kinds of tossing and maintenance, the shavings are applied and combed into dovetail hair temples.

Zuo Xi listened to Yan's words in a daze, and while laughing at himself as a country bumpkin, he lamented the wisdom of the ancients.After having an oolong, Zuo Xi didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore.Taking a look at the recognized professional make-up nurse, Zuo Xi was embarrassed to say how she had messed with her face in the past two months.

Masks made of milk, honey, and pearl powder are all trifles. For her face, Eleven deliberately searched through ancient books, and found a lot of beauty products from a familiar imperial doctor.

By the way, when talking about Eleven, one has to say that in order to be able to personally go to Xue's family to greet the bride today, after handing over the matter of Bai Ruolan to the four or nine, he went to Xiaotangshan Bieyuan to recuperate his body.

On the eleventh day, I returned to Elder Brother's Mansion on the second day of junior high school, and stayed overnight in the mansion. On the third day of junior high school, I went to the palace to greet Concubine Yi and Guo Guiren.

Although the prince's elder brother's marriage is handled by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and Yifei and his sisters are watching over the big and small matters, but the two days of marriage are not trivial, and they always need the help of his brother and sister-in-law.Even if he didn't go, brother-in-law wouldn't pick on him, but that's what she meant when she came to talk to her.

On the fifth day of the lunar new year, Xue's family sent a dowry to Eleventh Prince's Mansion.

The dowry that was carried up and down made people dumbfounded, not to mention the little golden mountain, even the furniture that Xue's family gave them was amazing.

Eyes opened.

Rich people really know how to play.

No one could have imagined that Zuo Xi's furniture was "dealed with" because of the lack of good wood and the deadline for construction.Gold and silver opened the way, and everyone ignored the truth because of their preconceived ideas.

After the dowry enters the mansion, it will be dried in the open space of the mansion first, and then part of it will be sent to the warehouse and part of it will be decorated in the new house under the envious comments of everyone.

When the furniture was placed in the new house one by one according to the layout plan given by Zuo Xi early on, the sisters-in-law and relatives of the same family brought by the two Fujins to watch the ceremony were pointing at the furniture in the house and whispering novelty and fun. .

The beds in this era are mostly canopy beds, Qiangong beds, and Zuo Xi's new Chinese-style beds. This is the first time everyone has seen them.Beautiful and exquisite curtains, matching bedside tables, unique bedside lamps, and the bedside couch at the foot of the bed that is slightly raised at both ends but wrapped in brocade cloth.

While everyone was pointing at the bed, a bed lazy table with a small wheel was assembled and pushed to the end of the bed by the servants.

The lazy table is Zuo Xi's favorite.At that time, Zuo's mother was still alive, and Zuo Xi grew up spoiled.Zuo Xi eats snacks on the bed, does homework, catches dramas on the tablet, and sometimes eats lazily on the bed.

Zuo Xi's original lazy table didn't have drawers, but this time when she got married, Zuo Xi made one with drawers.

The table is higher than the bed, and naturally higher than the bed stool at the end of the bed. When not in use, push the table to the end of the bed stool, and pull it forward when in use, which is convenient and tight.

Zuo Xi made this one because of "nostalgia", and second, he was going to put some odds and ends, but all the family members who came to watch the ceremony saw it, and for some reason, they thought of it as Eleven's long-term bedridden.

Putting aside these novelty-style furniture, everyone once again admired the curtains made of precious stones, pearls and jade leftovers in Xue's jewelry shop.

Under the reflection of the light, it is shiny, making people feel extravagant when they look at it.

In Zuo Xi's dowry, there were several antique calligraphy and paintings, some were collected by Xue's family and purchased later, and some were specially picked out by Dai Yu to give Zuo Xi a boost.

According to Daiyu, Zuo Xi cannot be told to run wildly in the direction of the nouveau riche.

╮(╯▽╰)╭

As soon as the dowry was carried to elder brother's mansion, Zuo Xi's sisters-in-law and members of the clan watched it for a while, and the palace servants sent by Yifei and Guo Guiren to help the palace naturally followed suit after returning to the palace.

The courtiers were clever and smart, and they talked about the dowry and furniture brought by Zuo Xi in such a good way, so that the Yifei sisters who hadn't seen it all grew grass in their hearts.

Humans are more or less curious.

However, it is not easy for the concubine to leave the palace, so if she really wants to satisfy her curiosity, she has to find another way.No, on the second day of marriage, when Zuo Xi followed Shi Yi into the palace to say hello, the people in the palace chatted about Zuo Xi's dowry furniture when they heard about it.Zuo Xi was also narrow-minded, so he directly invited the best craftsmen from the overpass to make a miniature model.

Like a toy.

A room without a roof, inside is a new house that Zuo Xi's furniture has packed up.After it is done, bring it into the palace to show Yifei sisters a novelty when you enter the palace to pay your respects.The extremely business-minded Master Jiu found out, and not only started selling furniture, he even started selling toys.

However, it is almost not children who play with this kind of toys, but some female relatives raised in deep boudoir.

To Zuo Xi, this is a different kind of play house.

The dowry and many dowry personnel followed the dowry and entered Eleven’s mansion first. After all the female relatives of the eleventh class left, they ran around the new house, touching this and that, and finally Sitting on the bed, I pulled the lazy table at the end of the bed.

We got married in April, the weather was neither too hot nor too cold, and the flowers and trees were in full bloom.Thinking of the well-located gazebo deep in the mansion, Eleven asked about the steak again.

"Don't worry about 120, it's all high-quality beef stew meat. The cook's braised pork craftsmanship has been passed down from his ancestors, and it has been passed down to his generation for 500 years. The fried and roasted beef The fruit wood is also aged apple wood... I guarantee that the steak this time will meet Fujin's taste."

Eleven heard this, and asked again about roses, scented candles and other accessories for candlelight dinners. After Tian Guo answered them one by one, Eleven felt relieved.

On the sixth day of the lunar new year, Zuo Xi got up early in the morning to make all sorts of troubles, even hungry.I have been tossing until the evening before I can sit in the sedan chair.The difference from Zuo Xi is that Eleven is not in good health, and the groom doesn't have so many things to do, so he doesn't have to get up too early. Sister Yifei, please be safe.

Because the wedding was in the evening, I invited Ann around in the morning on Eleven. When I returned to Yikun Palace, Concubine Yi was worried that he would not be able to eat when he returned home, so she specially stayed on Eleven for lunch in the palace, and then took a nap for an hour. , and then let the eleven out of the palace.

As for whether the five or nine sons, who took two days off to help, have three meals in time, whether they are thirsty or not, whether they are tired or not, Yifei said very simply: How old are you, do you still need to worry about these things?

Those who are eccentric are called righteous.

The five and nine masters, busy before and after, helped to greet all the brothers and clans who came to the wedding, as well as those officials and merchants who came to join in the fun for the sake of the five and nine masters.

Wufujin and Jiufujin, the sisters-in-law of the eleventh relatives, are responsible for receiving the female relatives, wedding banquets and so on.

Sifujin got the words of the fourth master, and while whispering to the neglected Thirteen Fujin, he recalled the heartache when his son fell into the water that year.

Fourth Master kept his mouth shut, if they hadn't been married on the eleventh day, and the two of them would have come to the wedding, Fourth Master might not have told Si Fujin that Zuo Xi was the one who saved Honghui at Hongluo Temple.

There was nothing wrong, the child Zuo Xi fished out of the river and threw him out the window was Honghui.After Hong Hui returned home wearing clothes that had been washed into rags by the washing machine and wrapped in a cloak from Zuo Xi, Fourth Master began to investigate the matter.

Don't be too easy to investigate something on the sticky stick in Fourth Master's hand.

Honghui's absence of injury and fever, as well as the hastily washed clothes can all prove that the person who saved Honghui did emergency treatment for Honghui, but he was a person who couldn't work, and might even be pampered.

Looking at the quality and size of the cloak, it can be considered that the person who rescued Honghui was an adult with a short stature, or a half-grown child.

Then, through the investigation and analysis of the location where Honghui woke up and the pilgrims who offered incense that day, Fourth Master finally determined that it was Zuo Xi who rescued Honghui that day.

Honghui is the emperor's grandson, and the material of the clothes is not something ordinary people can wear. Even if the daughter of the Xue family has never seen Honghui, it is impossible not to recognize the material on Honghui's body.After thinking about it back and forth, after realizing Zuo Xi's intention of not wanting to show off, Fourth Master didn't send anyone to Xue's house to thank him.

But if someone saved his son, it was impossible for fourth master to do nothing.When Xue Pan got a good ranking in martial arts back then, the fourth master's handwriting was in it.However, fourth master has not yet thought of a chance to repay the right person who saved people.

Now that the son's savior has become his younger brother and sister, thinking about the situation of the eleventh brother and the family background of the Xue family, the fourth master decided to tell his son's mother, his descendant Fujin Ulanara, about this matter. .

This brother and sister, you take over.

Sifujin has a son like Honghui, who is Sifujin's heart, heart, eyes, and all her hopes.If something happened to Honghui, Sifujin didn't even dare to imagine what would happen to him in the future.Therefore, Si Fujin is very grateful to Zuo Xi who saved her son.

At this time, everyone was sitting together talking together, and Sifujin and Shisanfujin also analyzed what kind of person Zuo Xi was based on the dowries they saw yesterday.

Looking at the furniture doesn't look like a step-by-step person.

I don't know how to behave, whether to get along well.

It's not a secret that Zuo Xi chose to enter the palace to be a palace maid for Shiyi, and the Xue family's family background is even more prominent. After hearing about Zuo Xi's past, many people looked down on her from the bottom of their hearts.

Maybe it's a vixen with a lot of tricks, that's why Eleven Elder Brother won't marry her.

Ba Fujin's face was covered with thick powder, but it still couldn't conceal the haggardness on his face.Although she also came to attend the eleventh wedding today, she didn't look like she came to congratulate her at all, and she didn't even want to pretend, which made people wonder if Fujin came to find trouble.Sitting there at this moment and listening to everyone talking about Zuo Xi, Ba Fujin curled the corners of his lips, smiling ironically.

The prince marries Fujin, although he welcomes Yue's family in person, but it is different from a folk wedding.The head of the House of Internal Affairs led his subordinates to wear python robes to mend their uniforms, together with the guards and his guards, Luan Yiwei Xiaowei and others formed a welcome team to carry eight red satin sedan chairs to Fujin's house.The sun was tilted to the west, and Eleven, who had had enough rest, rode on a well-trained and docile mare, led by Tian Guo, and led the team to Xue's house in person.

On the other side of Xue's house, Zuo Xi had already changed into auspicious clothes, combed her hair, and sat there waiting for the auspicious time after being tossed about.Daiyu, Baoqin, and Miaoyu were all there, and even Wang Xiluan from the Wang family and Tanchun from the Jia family came to give them off.A room full of young girls gathered around Zuo Xi and said all kinds of jokes, Zuo Xi smiled weakly at them, and was so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back.

She usually does not eat three meals a day, and never stops eating snacks, fruits and snacks.It was cruel to not give her food for a day.

So far, the nervousness and shyness of the newlyweds, Zuo Xi pondered or waited until Eleventh Prince's Mansion, and it would not be too late to pick them up in the face of the group of concubines and clan women.

When the auspicious time came, the prince personally picked up Fujin and went out.

The sisters chatted and laughed with Zuo Xi for a while, then Baoqin and Miaoyu were called away by Wanyan.After a while, Wang Xiluan also went out.In the whole old boudoir, only Daiyu and Tanchun accompanied Zuo Xi.

Zuo Xi hasn't seen Tanchun for a long time, Tanchun looks very haggard, like a rose that lacks moisture.But thinking about the situation of Jia's family, Zuo Xi and Daiyu didn't find it strange.

When they came to Beijing in the early years, Rongguo Mansion was so grand, and the third girl was so proud, but now things have changed, it is really embarrassing.

Zuo Xi glanced at Daiyu, and didn't ask Daiyu to take care of Tanchun.Today's Jia's family is a rascal, if you get caught in it, don't even think about getting rid of it.She can intimidate Mrs. Wang, but Daiyu and the Lin family can't beat Mrs. Wang and Jiamu behind her.So she can take care of Tanchun, but Daiyu can't.

Earlier, Zuo Xi thought that if Tanchun was willing, she would find a way to send Tanchun to the fourth princess.

The fourth princess is a rare princess who participates in politics, and Tanchun is someone who wants to make a career. Going to the fourth princess seems to be the right way.

But Zuo Xi also had to guard against Tan Chun's resentment towards Lin and Xue's family in his heart, and he would take the opportunity to make trouble when he gained power.After all, the fourth princess is her eldest aunt, so don't get a bad impression because of some slander before they meet.

A few years ago, when the imperial concubine was visiting relatives, the Rongguo Mansion was in the limelight for a while, with flowers adorning brocades and burning fire.However, since then, Rongguo Mansion seems to be on the road of prosperity and decline.Even today, even though Yuan Chun in the palace is still a virtuous concubine, everyone in the world knows that the Jia family has completely declined.

Because of Sister Feng, and also because of the third prince Zhu.

As the sister of the legendary third prince Zhu, Tanchun's all avenues to advance are blocked.When he found out from Rongxi Hall that his aunt wanted to send her to be Xue Pan's concubine, Tanchun was completely desperate.

Although it failed, but thinking of Aunt Zhao and Huan'er, Tanchun knew that she would always compromise.

……

After chatting awkwardly with Tanchun for a while, Wan Yan and others came back to say that the auspicious time had come.

When Zuo Xi heard that her family's tea art master came to pick up the bride, he instinctively looked at Daiyu.

It's great, let sister Lin be her bridesmaid, she can play for 300 years.
