Chapter 50 Lin Qingran Gets Married

After the Jiji ceremony, the embroiderer came to measure for the last time, and half a month later, the wedding dress arrived.

Si Qin and Si Hua carefully hung the wedding dress in the small room in the inner room, and a few maids piled up at the door, looking at the hung wedding dress, their eyes were not without longing.

Lin Qingran came back from Luoying Courtyard to invite Ann, and seeing their expressions, she purposely smiled and said to Li's mother, "Nurse, it seems that we are looking for someone, and we are going to marry the girls in this house one by one."

Si Shu pulled Si Hua out with a blushing face, but Si Qi helped Lin Qingran to sit down, "The young lady has to choose carefully for us."

Mother Li laughed and scolded, "Skinless and shameless, hurry up and tidy up the things in the study." Siqi smiled and played the piano and went to the study to sort out the books. Not long after Lin Qingran sat down, the secretary who had just left Come in and report that Miss Jin's fourth lady is here.

Lin Qingran asked her to bring someone over, and went out of the back room to order someone to prepare tea.

Jin Xianghui's marriage was scheduled for mid-May, earlier than Lin Qingran, and she came here this time to give Lin Qingran a wedding.

After entering the room, Jin Xianghui asked the maid to bring up Tianjuan, and looked at Lin Qingran with a gentle smile, "I don't know when we will meet again, but I think I should come over and bring you the things in person."

The two chatted, and when it came to Yancheng and Yan's family, Jin Xianghui was a little embarrassed.

What does the third young master of the Yan family look like? Jin Xianghui has never seen him before, and he just inquired and said that he looks upright. The rest of them are all praiseworthy for the matchmaker.

Seeing Lin Qingran mentioning the Yan family like this, Jin Xianghui couldn't help teasing her, "You still talk about me, I don't know what kind of person the fifth master of the Shao family is."

Lin Qingran raised the corner of her mouth and snorted softly, "Isn't it just a person, what else can it be?"

In Jin Xianghui's view, she was just shy, and then she thought of something, and her eyes darkened.

Lin Qingran thought she was thinking of Zhu Shaoling, "Sister Jin, are you thinking of that young master Zhu again?"

Jin Xianghui shook her head, "No, what do I think he is doing?" Lin Qingran didn't believe it, Jin Xianghui smiled and glared at her, "Why, I'm so worthless in your eyes?"

Lin Qingran chuckled, "No, that's how Sister Jin put it so well."

"I just thought of my third sister." Jin Xianghui paused, then looked at her, "You've seen it before."

Lin Qingran nodded, she only knew it when she bumped into her, otherwise she would have thought it was a long-term illness in bed, and now that she was talking, Lin Qingran asked her, "Sister Jin, why are these three girls acting like this so well?" .”

Jin Xianghui pursed her lips, lowered her head and was unwilling to say more, "It's the third sister who doesn't have this blessing."

She refused to say, so Lin Qingran naturally wouldn't ask too much, and talked about other things, and the two of them talked elsewhere, overshadowing this topic

When Jin Xianghui got married in mid-May, Lin Qingran didn't go there, and there was still more than half a month left. I heard that Nuan Pavilion was also busy packing things. The books in Lin Qingran's study were divided into volumes, and some were left on the shelves. Some of them were to be taken to Shao's house, but only half of them were filled with several boxes.

The Lu family found a mother and four maidservants for her. Among the servants married by the Lin family, there was also a mother in charge, two thick-bodied wives and several thick-faced maidservants.

He handed over the deeds of these people to Lin Qingran and told her to keep them safe, and gave her a prepared dowry list.

At the end of May, the Lin family carried the dowry to the Shao family.

A few days before the marriage, the dowry had to be carried to the Shao family, just like the Shao family had brought the dowry here, and it was also to let the Shao family know what kind of family background the daughter-in-law married into, so that the Shao family would not underestimate it.

There is also such a saying about the dowry. If you can’t afford the dowry and can’t afford to marry your daughter, you can use the dowry to make up for it. Outsiders can’t see it. They just put things in another box. The husband’s family will know it when they look at the dowry list. It will make the husband's family look down on him.

Lin Qingran's dowry is the same as that of her sisters, [-]% of it is the dowry from the return, and the rest is the dowry that the Lin family gave to their daughters. It is not the highest, nor is it lower than that of those young ladies from aristocratic families. In front of the Shao family, That is, neither high nor low is just right.

Lin Yunze and Lin Yunhao came to deliver the dowry. They were very ghostly. When they returned to the Lin family, they told Lu and Lin Qingran about the Shao family's expressions when they saw the dowry. Said, "Yo, it's still Huanghuali's bed, this Lin family really loves their daughter."

Lin Qingran laughed, and Lu patted him on the head, "There are no rules or distances." After speaking, she also laughed, the tone really resembles the wife of the fourth wife of the Shao family.

What Lin Yunhao learned so vividly was the reaction of the Shao family when they saw Lin Qingran’s dowry. The Lin family has no ancestral background, and they can still come up with such a dowry when they marry the fifth girl, which is enviable. In addition to envy, it's not that there is also some jealousy, so the words in his mouth are naturally sour.

After the two brothers reported what the Shao family had seen, after going out, Mrs. Lu took Lin Qingran's hand and told him, "The members of the Shao family are self-reliant. Just serve tea, if they make things difficult, then they are the elders, you can’t argue.” On the first day of the wedding, there was an argument with the elders when serving tea, and no matter who started it, it was the new wife’s fault if it got out.

"Mother, if they make things difficult for me when they serve tea, then I can see carefully, who are the people in Shao's family from now on, and what attitude they have towards me." But with a few sour words, who would do something out of the ordinary.

"It's good if you can think like this." Mrs. Lu nodded, and ordered some other things along the way.
Three or four days passed quickly, and it was the third day of June, Lin Qingran's wedding day.

She got up before dawn, and after taking a bath, Lin Qingran followed what they said, opened her hands to change clothes, turned around to tie her belt, and sat down to put on makeup.

In her previous life, Lin Qingran never had time to fall in love, let alone get married. The scene of red candles dancing in the house, coupled with what Grandma Quan Fu said when she combed her hair, made her nose sore, and tears overflowed her eyes.

The siqin at the side saw it and quickly wiped her tears with a handkerchief. Grandma Quanfu's words continued, "Six combs are for the land of blessings, seven combs are for avoiding disasters, eight combs are for a thousand profits, nine combs are for happiness, ten flavors, ten There is no taboo in combing."

"I'll add makeup later, so I can't cry anymore." Grandma Quanfu fixed her hair at the back, looked at her reddish eyes, "Now add makeup to Miss."

The bride's makeup looked heavy, Lin Qingran looked at herself in the bronze mirror, and almost couldn't recognize her. Thick eyebrows and red lips were added to the thick makeup. hairpin.

Si Qin helped her up, and Si Hua and Si Shu brought her the coat of the wedding dress and put it on for her, before putting on the phoenix crown.

After arriving at the bedside and sitting down for a while, Lin Qingran felt her head heavy.

At this time, it was dawn outside, and Lu Shi came in with a maid, who was holding a plate with rice and fish in it.

There are some things that a mother can tell her daughter, but she can't finish telling her. Lu looked at Lin Qingran, and before she could say a few words, her eyes turned red, and she held her hand, her voice choked, "Come on, mother Feed you to eat."

A mouthful of rice, a mouthful of fish, and a mouthful of meat. Married to her husband's family, Lin Qingran swallowed her mother's food with tears in her eyes. Lu Shi smoothed her hair, "Don't cry, today is a day of great joy."

There was a mother outside the house reminding Shi Shi that there seemed to be a procession of welcoming relatives coming in front. Lu picked up the handkerchief placed by the bed and put it on for her, and sent someone in to help Lin Qingran to worship her ancestors.

At the gate of the Lin family, the procession to welcome the bride was blocked. Everyone knew that the groom was a man of few words, so many people came to help. manpower.

Lin Yunhao looked at Shao Ziyu with a smile, "Fifth brother-in-law, you can't answer, so you can't go in to pick up Fifth sister."

This is really a rare golden mouth for Shao Ziyu. Looking at Lin Yunhao and Lin Yunze, he answered their questions without seriousness or seriousness. Eight characters are only eight characters. One more is not too much, and Shao is not less. After finishing speaking, be quiet looking at them.

Shao Ziyu just has that kind of aura, which can make people not make trouble with him, and he doesn't look scary, he is friendly and good-tempered.

Where are the two brothers who give up so easily, don't make trouble for the groom's official, just make trouble for the accompanying person, and wait until the reminder time before letting them in. At the end, the two brothers also exchanged about "Will the fifth sister like the fifth brother-in-law be suffocated to death?" 'topic of.

Just halfway through talking, no one got a chestnut on the head, Lin Qingyan grabbed their faces, "What are you doing in a daze, waiting for your brother-in-law to recite your fifth sister in person."

The two brothers ran to listen to the Nuan Pavilion
Lin Qingran heard the movement outside the house, and Si Qin reminded that it was time to go out, and helped her to the door, and the two younger brothers carried it out alternately.

Along the way, there are firecrackers in the ears, and there is a gravel path leading to the gate.

After leaving Ting Nuan Pavilion, Lin Qingran heard Da Lang say behind her back, "Fifth Sister, you went to Shao's house, if anyone bullies you, write to us."

Lin Qingran laughed, and when Erlang recited it, the two brothers seemed to have discussed it, and said similar things again.

When she got to the sedan chair, Xi Niang supported her, hearing some etiquette words in her ears, and bent down into the sedan chair. Lin Qingran held the handkerchief in her hand, and firecrackers were set off outside the sedan chair. With the sound of getting up the sedan chair, Lin Qingran Picking up the veil and wiping it under his eyes, he gently threw it out of the window inside the sedan chair.

The welcoming team did not turn back. After picking up the bride, they returned to Shaohou's mansion by another road. They passed all the way, and it was already evening when the sedan chair arrived at the gate of Shaohou's mansion.

The bridegroom kicked the sedan chair, and Xi Niang handed one end of the red silk to Lin Qingran, helped her out of the sedan chair, and reminded her to lift her feet up the stairs.

After stepping over the brazier and stepping on the tiles, Lin Qingran followed into the wedding hall, and was supported by Xi Niang to stand beside Shao Ziyu.

Red candles were lit in the hall, and there were no people sitting on the chairs on both sides, only two cups of tea represented the fifth master and fifth wife of the Shao family.

Lin Qingran's ears were buzzing, and she followed the shouting voice to worship. After the husband and wife worshiped each other, Lin Qingran only saw the same red robe when she put down her Xipa.

The hand holding the red silk tightened slightly, and then it was sent into the bridal chamber with a sound. Xi Niang helped Lin Qingran out of the wedding hall, and in front of her was a maid holding a red candle, going to Chenxiangyuan
