Buddhist palace maids want to be rich

Chapter 172 Welcome
After eating the noodles, in the room, Lin Qiushui led the servant girls Huaping and Ruolan to chat with Jiang Zhixia to relieve boredom.

Suddenly, there was a commotion from the gate.

Xiaoman, the God of Ear Reporting, quickly ran in and reported: "Girl, my uncle's sedan chair has arrived at the door, and it is being lit."

After saying this, without waiting for Jiang Zhixia to say anything, Lin Qiushui next to him stood up nervously.

Jiang Zhixia was also a little nervous at first, but seeing Lin Qiushui like this, she was not nervous anymore.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Lin Qiushui's face suddenly turned red.

She sat down embarrassingly, and explained helplessly: "I, I'm a little nervous."

Everyone smiled kindly.Weddings can be stressful, especially for young girls.

"The groom is here, shall we start combing our hair too?" Jiang Matchmaker asked Jiang Zhixia and the eldest lady with a smile.

Both sides nodded.So, Matchmaker Jiang invited Jiang Zhixia to sit in front of the bronze mirror, and invited the eldest lady to come forward.

The eldest lady picked up a brand new wooden comb from the tray next to her, stood behind Jiang Zhixia, and combed Jiang Zhixia's dark hair solemnly.

While combing, he muttered in his mouth:

"If you comb your hair, you don't have to worry about being rich;
Second comb comb to the head, no disease and no worries;
Three combs to the head, more children and longer life;
Comb to the end again, raise the eyebrows again;
Comb two combs to the end, fly together together;
Comb three combs to the end, and wear them together forever,
There is a head and a tail, and we will be rich and honored in this life."

After combing her hair, Mrs. Lin who came in with Xiaoman handed the red envelope to the eldest lady, and said with a smile: "Tianxi, Tianxi."

The eldest lady accepted it with a smile, and then Mrs. Lin held hands and invited her to the front lobby to have a seat, drink tea and have snacks.

After Mrs. Lin and the others left, Xiaoman, the God of Ear Reporting, ran in again, "Girl, the sedan chair has been searched outside the door."

"What's a sedan chair search?" Jiang Zhixia asked curiously.

Jiang Zhixia didn't need her to do many things herself.Therefore, she also understood everything in detail.

"Search the sedan chair, that is, after the sedan chair prepared by the man arrives at the door of the woman's house, he must first light a red candle, take a mirror, and take a look inside and outside the sedan chair to drive away evil spirits."

Jiang Matchmaker said with a smile.

After Jiang Zhixia finished listening, she nodded——so that's the case.

After finishing these gossips, they listened to Xiaoman, the God of Ear Reporting, come in one after another, telling them the process outside.

Jiang Zhixia's family didn't even have a brother to block the door, so Chu Mufeng had to lead the six servants to act.

Listening to Chu Mufeng leading people to block the door, asking the groom to give red envelopes, making make-up poems, and letting the groom perform his talents - I heard that Chu Tiankuo danced a long spear, and finally pointed the spear point at Chu Mufeng.He was so scared that he honestly opened the door.

Chu Tiankuo entered the lobby of the front yard, and handed over a letter of welcome and a welcome gift that included live wild geese.

After completing this series of procedures, accompanied by Princess Taiping and Mrs. Lin who acted as Jiang Zhixia's elders, they chatted and narrated.

It was noon, and the banquet began in front of it.

For this banquet, because the number of tables was very small, Jiang Zhixia didn't buy a lot of ingredients, but went directly to a famous restaurant on Feng'an Street to book a table.

Jiang Zhixia accompanied Lin Qiushui in the backyard and ate a little - because the wedding was going to be held at dusk, she didn't dare to eat or drink too much.

After lunch, under the service of Ruolan and Xiaoman, Jiang Zhixia washed her face again, and the nun who combed her hair began to put on makeup.

Jiang Zhixia still refused makeup powder and lipstick.Lin Qiushui felt strange.

Jiang Zhixia took a look around, then asked Ruolan to invite the hair-combing nurse to the main hall for some tea and rest.

When she was alone, she repeated the words about the lead and cinnabar in her makeup and lip balm.

"Sister, wait a minute. I have my own makeup powder and lipstick here."

After listening to Jiang Zhixia's words, Lin Qiushui quickly called Huaping and asked her to fetch her makeup box.

When a noble girl goes out as a guest, there will always be time to eat and drink, so it is normal to carry rouge and water powder with her to touch up her makeup.

Huaping hurriedly took the makeup box and came over.

Lin Qiushui opened it and said, "Sister, I made all the rouge and gouache here by myself. There is no lead or cinnabar added. They are all made of flowers and plants. I always like to tinker with these, so I have been using them since a very early age. I made it myself. I have been using it myself for these years, so it must be fine.”

Jiang Zhixia knew Lin Qiushui's kindness and believed what she said.So, I took out the makeup powder and lip balm from the makeup box.

After the hair-combing mama came back, let her use these to put on makeup.

After putting on makeup, Jiang Zhixia looked even more attractive.

After putting on the make-up, Ruolan and Xiaoman waited on her again, changing Jiang Zhixia into a gorgeous wedding dress made by the Shangyi Bureau.

Jiang Zhixia seldom wears bright red on weekdays, but now she wears it extremely brightly and charmingly.

When the phoenix crown came out, it directly dazzled everyone's eyes.

Everything was ready, only waiting for the time to go to the front yard to get married.

Time passed little by little.

"Okay, it's time, let's go to the front yard."

The eldest lady came in from the door, reached out and took the red hijab, and put it directly on Jiang Zhixia's head full of Zhu Cui.

Jiang Zhixia's eyes immediately glowed red.

Her normally calm heart jumped up involuntarily.

"Also, where is Ruyi?" Matchmaker Jiang asked hurriedly beside her.

Similarly, this emerald Ruyi was also given by the eldest princess.

That's why Mrs. Lin said that after giving a lot of things, sending out Quanfu people, and supporting the scene, Mrs. Lin said that in the future, the kindness and affection will be cleared.

Ruolan hastily pointed to Ruyi next to her.Matchmaker Jiang invited the eldest lady to pick up Ruyi, and the eldest lady, a Quanfu person, handed it to Jiang Zhixia's hands, which means that everything will go well in life in the future.

After they finished their work, everyone surrounded Jiang Zhixia, who was supported by Xiaoman and Ruolan, who was holding Ruyi, and walked to the lobby of the front yard stepping on the red felt covering the floor.

Lin Qiushui was holding the painting screen, standing at the corner door and watching from a distance.

"Miss, Miss Jiang's house is not big, and there are not many rules. Why don't we go to the entrance of the lobby to have a look."

Huaping looked at Lin Qiushui with eyes that wanted to watch and said.

This is not the Marquis of Cheng'en's mansion, there are a bunch of cousins ​​waiting to find fault with the girl.

Lin Qiushui hesitated for a while, then looked at the Eldest Princess, Eldest Lady, Mrs. Lin and other female relatives in the front yard, and nodded.But he still didn't dare to go to the entrance of the lobby, he just stood behind the crowd and secretly looked at the glowing red person.

In the lobby, there is no longer the process of saying goodbye to parents.It's just that Mrs. Lin, as a guest of her natal family, said a few words about living a good life.

Finally, it is time to carry the bride into the eight-carried sedan chair.

Mrs. Lin knew that Chu Mufeng and Jiang Zhixia were also very familiar, so she planned to let Chu Mufeng carry Jiang Zhixia into the sedan chair as her elder brother.

As a result, Chu Tiankuo, who was jealous, didn't want other men to betray Jiang Zhixia, so he drove Chu Mufeng to the side of the sedan chair early to wait for the marriage.

As for Jiang Zhixia, in the end, he had to let Jiang Matchmaker carry it.

Fortunately, although Jiang Zhixia was tall, she was light in weight.Matchmaker Jiang carried it effortlessly.

So, Chu Tiankuo walked ahead, and Jiang Matchmaker carried Jiang Zhixia on her back, and walked along the red felt to the sedan chair at the door.
