Princess of Nongmen

Chapter 1553 Leggings Rope

Min Luo looked at the dress she was going to wear for Liu Ya, selected a few ribbons that matched the color of the dress, wrapped Liu Ya's hair in a special style, and tied a few more knots.

At first glance, this knot is classical and bright, and it is much more beautiful than the hairpin.

When putting on Liu Ya's makeup, she didn't use any bright red color, but just painted Emei lightly, and put on a layer of peach red lipstick to make the lip color stand out, and the eyebrows also have a three-dimensional effect.

Liu Ya was also satisfied with this simple and exquisite makeup, raised her eyebrows, and said: "The craftsmanship is good, from now on you and Mingjuan will be considered as people by my side."

Being appreciated by Liu Ya, Min Luo also seemed very happy.But she seemed to be more honest than Ming Juan, and she didn't thank her immediately, but just smiled slightly, a little embarrassed.

It was Ming Juan who poked her arm and signaled her to thank the master quickly, and Ming Luo thanked Liu Ya repeatedly.

Liu Ya looked in the mirror, stood up and put on her dress.This dress is not an ordinary way to wear it, it even needs to be tied with a waist and leg ropes.

The waist is more than one foot wide, and the straps are crossed at the back. It has to be tightened to highlight the slender waist, and it also has a breast support function, which is similar to the body-shaping underwear of the early Western aristocrats.

But this leg rope made Liu Ya very incomprehensible.It turned out to be a red rope tied around the knee. The red rope was very short, which restricted the stride.

When walking, the knees can be bent, but only the calf part below the knee can take a step, and the upper part must be completely close together.

After Liu Ya was tied with the leg rope, she tried to take two steps, but when she took a little longer, she almost fell, and she wobbled a bit before she stood still with Ming Juan's support.

For the first time, Liu Ya showed a surprised and helpless expression, and said, "Can I use this leg strap? At worst, I'll walk slowly, just take small steps."

"No." Ming Juan hurriedly said: "On a day like this, leg ropes must be tied. Miss will suffer a little bit, and I will always serve by Miss's side."

Now Liu Ya understands why every lady in ancient times had a maid who never left her, and she had to be helped when getting on and off the car and stepping over the threshold.Mostly because of the leg ropes that are so difficult to walk, I can't walk properly.

But helplessness is helplessness, Liu Ya is too lazy to express any feminist remarks, and she is unwilling to fight for personal freedom at this time by showing off.Just tie it up, it will be tiring if you talk too much.

When the dress was put on, Liu Ya felt that she was about to sweat.In this cold and twelfth lunar month weather, she was very tired from all the tossing.

Then supported by Ming Juan, Liu Ya walked out the door with small steps, and walked towards the main hall.

The Gu family's hometown is in Anji City, so of course this ancestor worship is not going back to the old ancestral hall in Anji City.Rather, after the Gu family established a firm foothold in the capital, some ancestors had already built an ancestral temple of the Gu family outside the city.

At the beginning, the ancestral temple must not be very big.But the ancient family has been the prime minister for several generations, and a queen dowager has been born, and the ancestral temple has become more and more magnificent.

Gu Yezi, Gu Prime Minister and Gu Shangqing all rode horses.Mrs. Gu and the three sisters of the Gu family all took carriages.It's just that Mrs. Gu took one by herself, and the three sisters took one at the same time.

Outside the ancestral temple, there are also presiding monks who come out to greet them.The old man got off the horse first, and the members of the Gu family also got off the horse and the car one after another.

Liu Ya waited until Gu Xueqi and Guy Yuxiao dismounted, and then moved out little by little.

Although she had asked in the carriage, it turned out that the sisters of the Gu family also wore leg ropes, but they probably got used to it, so even though their movements were a little restricted, they were not too slow.

On the other hand, Liu Ya moved to the side of the carriage door and had to support the carriage to stand up. When she was about to get off the carriage, she couldn't move her legs at all, so she simply put her feet together and jumped off the carriage.

Fortunately, Mingjuan knew that Liu Ya was inconvenient to move, so she came to greet her in advance, and supported Liu Ya who jumped down with both hands.

Otherwise, if Liu Ya's feet fell to the ground with such a "plop", even if she didn't fall, it would have alarmed everyone.

Liu Ya stood up straight, trying to keep her expression calm and dignified, but she had already greeted the guy who invented the leg rope hundreds of times in her heart.

It seems that she is still ignorant, and she doesn't even know that ancient women still need to help with leg ropes.It turns out that everyone's ladies walk in small steps, it's all thanks to this terrible leg rope.

Liu Ya almost swayed every step, swaying her slender waist, followed the crowd to the ancestral temple with graceful steps.

If you don't know, when you look at Liu Ya, you will be fascinated by her graceful and graceful figure.

But only Ming Juan, who was holding Liu Ya's arm tightly, knew that Liu Ya's teeth were about to be crushed at this moment.Along the way, the sound of grinding teeth almost overwhelmed the sound of footsteps.

Mingjuan had no choice but to squeeze Liu Ya's wrist quietly again, and said in a low voice: "Miss, why don't we walk slowly and take a rest."

Liu Ya raised her head to look at the old man and the others who were walking in the front, and then at Mrs. Gu and the others who were walking a little behind her, she shook her head slightly, and said, "Let's go, it's not easy to let us go." Others are waiting."

Even if it is slow, there is always time to go.Although the leg rope is inconvenient, maybe you just get used to it.

Fortunately, Liu Ya has never been a hypocritical person, nor is she the kind of person who is too selfish for the so-called freedom.She understands the principle of doing as the Romans do and being at peace with the situation, so it is not too difficult.

Cigarettes linger in the ancestral temple, which looks solemn and quiet.Although the place is not big, it can show the style of a big family.

Because there is an ancestor worship session every New Year, the presiding officer in the ancestral temple has already prepared all the procedures and the required ritual tools. There is no need to be too nervous, just follow the steps.

The only difference is that after offering sacrifices to the ancestors this year, there was an additional link to invite the family tree to give Liu Ya naturalization.But this is not too difficult. It stands to reason that as long as there are new members of the Gu family, whether it is marriage or addition, it will be the same, so there is also a set of procedures.

When everything was done, Liu Ya paid homage to her ancestors alone as the daughter of the Gu family, and it was considered a ceremony.

Then the host will invite everyone to have a vegetarian meal in the back, and by the way, he will give you a lucky bag for the New Year.Everyone has one, which can be regarded as the meaning of praying for the ancestors to bless their safety.

After sitting in the meditation room at the back to rest, Liu Ya was relieved.

Then I saw Gu Yuxiao, who was sitting diagonally across from her, quietly twisting his knees under the table, and took off the leg rope tied around his knees in a short while.

The leg ropes were not tied very tightly, otherwise it would be more of a hindrance and the pain would be unbearable.So it's not that hard to get it off.
