Princess of Nongmen

Chapter 1569 The Significant Silver Hairpin

Thinking of this, Prime Minister Gu also said: "Father, have you finished your congratulatory speech to Ya'er? I'll take it over tonight and have a look at it, and I won't read it wrong during the ceremony tomorrow."

Just imagine, how could the majestic Prime Minister mispronounce a congratulatory speech.It's just that he wanted to show the importance he attaches to Liu Ya.

After hearing these words, Liu Ya looked at Prime Minister Gu with a little more gratitude.People from the Gu family really treated her well.

The old man nodded and said: "It's finished, it's in my room. Come and get it later."

After that, Mrs. Gu arranged things for Gu Xueqi and Gu Yuxiao respectively.

For a ceremony like tomorrow, Mingjuan will accompany Liu Ya, but Gu Xueqi, as the sister after Jijin, will also accompany her.It's a bit like being a bridesmaid, but it's not the same thing.

Gu Yuxiao was arranged for Madam Gu to hold the combs and hairpins that needed to be used when Madam Gu combed Liu Ya's hair.

The most important part of the Jijin ceremony is to tie hair and insert hairpins, so it must not be sloppy at all.

Speaking of this link, Mrs. Gu even specially ordered her personal servant girl to fetch something, saying it was a hairpin for Liu Ya.

After a while, the maid was holding a tray, inside which were several small long boxes, all of which should contain hairpins.

And each box is very delicate, it can be seen that the hairpins inside must not be ordinary jewelry.

The tray was held in front of Liu Ya, Mrs. Gu got up and walked over, opened the jewelry boxes on it one by one, and asked Liu Ya, "Ya'er, these hairpins are all dowry from my natal family, so they are exquisite. You See which one you like, and I will give it to you, and I will wear this one when I insert the hairpin tomorrow."

It stands to reason that the mother should prepare the hairpin for the daughter Jijin.Or ask a craftsman to make it, or wear a hairpin from the mother's natal family, which is also for a inheritance, and the meaning is very beautiful.

Liu Ya doesn't have a mother, so Madam Gu will naturally prepare for it.But time was tight and it was too late to make a new hairpin, so Mrs. Gu chose her natal family's dowry.

To be honest, Liu Ya was very moved.Because Mrs. Gu can find any reason at will, go to the street to buy a hairpin for Liu Ya and come back.

Presumably, as long as the price is expensive, even the old man can't say anything bad.

But what is in front of her now is Mrs. Gu's dowry back then, and the meaning is very different.

Liu Ya pursed her lips and stood up, her eyes swept over the jewelry boxes one by one, her eyes were looking at hairpins, but her heart was full of strong family affection.

"Ya'er?" Mrs. Gu noticed that Liu Ya was distracted, so she couldn't help calling her softly.

When Liu Ya raised her head again, it turned out to be a pair of black and white tearful eyes that were lingering with water vapor.After choking for a while, he said, "Thank you auntie for your careful preparation, I...I like it so much."

Mrs. Gu was also taken aback for a moment, she saw the real touch and sadness in the girl's eyes.Thinking that this is a little girl who lost her mother and just found out her biological father, she couldn't help but feel distressed.

"Silly girl." After Madam Gu finished speaking, she came over and hugged Liu Ya's shoulders, patted Liu Ya's shoulders lightly, and said, "Don't forget, from your mother's side, you still have to call me What about Auntie. So, choose carefully, this is what Auntie should do for you."

Liu Ya nodded, sniffed, and her eyes fell on the delicate hairpins again.

Almost without careful selection, Liu Ya was attracted by a silver hairpin with "Hui" pattern.Snow-white silver, engraved with gold-plated fretwork, simple and grand, with a bit of simplicity and elegance.

Compared with the white jade hairpin next to it, the texture of sterling silver is certainly not as expensive as that of white jade, but the silvery white color is a bit more delicate than white jade; compared with another hairpin inlaid with gold jade, it is less A bit more gorgeous but a bit more rustic.

Therefore, Liu Ya stretched out her hand, and gently touched the exquisitely carved "Hui" pattern on the hairpin with her fingertips, then picked up the hairpin and said, "Auntie, I will choose this one."

"Okay." Mrs. Gu nodded, with a smile on her face, and said: "Ya'er really has a vision. Although this is a silver hairpin, it is my great-grandmother's dowry. It has been passed down from generation to generation, and it is of great significance. And I Great-grandmother lived ninety-six out of sixty years old, and her children and grandchildren were full of blessings, so Ya'er brought it to the family, it's really the best."

Liu Ya originally just liked the simplicity and simplicity of this silver hairpin, but she didn't expect it to have such a profound meaning.

But thinking about it carefully, if only in terms of value, silver is indeed inferior to white jade and gold.

But if it was really such a simple silver hairpin, how could Mrs. Gu put it in such an exquisite box and take it out for herself to choose.

Thinking of this, Liu Ya blushed, and quickly said: "Auntie, I'm not picky... I didn't expect this hairpin to be so meaningful, you should leave it to Xueqi or Yuxiao. I'll choose again One is ready."

"No, no, this one is really good." Mrs. Gu reached out and picked up the silver hairpin together with the box, looked at it and said, "Don't blame Auntie for being partial. In fact, I had already put this hairpin when Xueqi came in. Several hairpins were taken out for Xueqi to choose. Yuxiao was also there at the time, and she also chose one for herself. But neither Xueqi nor Yuxiao chose this hairpin. I still had some regrets at that time I also once thought, if I have another daughter, will she choose this hairpin? After all, this is the inheritance of our Tong family, so I don't want to be left out like this. "

After a pause, Mrs. Gu said again: "Don't blame my aunt for talking too much, I just want to say that Tong's family used to be a small family. When my great-grandmother came here, she just made such a silver hairpin, so you can see The family background at that time was so ordinary. And until my great-grandmother got married, there was only such a silver hairpin as a decent dowry. But later, great-grandmother and great-grandfather together earned the entire Tong family and gained a foothold in the capital. Therefore, the meaning of this hairpin is even more different. Now, Ya’er, you are like my own daughter, and I have taken a fancy to this hairpin again. I am too happy. So you don’t have to choose again, it It's because of fate with you. Good boy, take it."

After hearing Mrs. Gu's words, Liu Ya's eyes showed deep solemnity, and the hairpin she took in her hand was also heavy.

The inheritance that was carried on made her feel emotional and somewhat moved.

Although she is not from the Tong family, Mrs. Gu really doesn't seem to treat her as an outsider. It feels so good.
