When Wei Hanzhang learned from Mrs. Liu that Xiao Boqian would attend the banquet at the Marquis Mansion to marry his daughter on the day Wei Hanshuang left the cabinet, he was not only slightly surprised, but also had a sense of anticipation in his heart that said, "You can't help it anymore." .
Wei Hanzhang was very clear as to why His Majesty the Crown Prince would pay attention to the wedding of a girl from the Marquis Mansion. It was not enough to reward Ruyi with a jade, but he actually wanted to come and have a drink in person.
Counting the days, they haven’t seen each other for more than half a month. Are they here for her?
Yes…right?
Wei Hanzhang is not a narcissistic girl, but she is inexplicably sure that Xiao Boqian came to the Zhongyong Hou Mansion in person because of her.
Since the day he got the news, Wei Hanzhang felt a little uncontrollably restless in his heart every time he thought about his coming.
As Wei Hanshuang's wedding day approached, her uneasiness slowly turned into another emotion.
There seems to be a pool of spring water bubbling with bubbles called "expectation" in the bottom of my heart.
After not seeing him for so many days, Wei Hanzhang had to admit that she... was actually looking forward to seeing him.
Lu Lan's hands were very skillful, and it didn't take much effort to give her a standard bun, and she also had a new beaded flower chain specially given by Jiang for today.
A bright hibiscus flower is traced between the eyebrows with green beads, embellishing the already beautiful girl, making her look more delicate than the flower, making her unforgettable.
Wei Hanzhang sat in front of the bronze mirror, looking at the girl inside. Her skin was as good as snow, her eyebrows were as dark as black, and her lips were smeared with red lipstick. When she wasn't smiling, her eyes were inadvertently cold, making her not easy to approach. a feeling of.
It just so happens that this girl looks as cold as the moon. She has two small hairdos on her hair.
As a result, the coldness disappeared completely, and those two cute little ones not only did not look childish, but added a bit of girlish playfulness.
Wei Hanzhang rarely dressed up like this. She couldn't help but frowned and said, "Would this steal the limelight too much?"
"How could it be so?" Nanny Sun, who came in holding a suit and skirt, said with a smile: "The second lady specially told me that today I want to dress up the girl well, and let others know how good our ninth girl is."
In Jiang's eyes, his daughter's marriage is the most important priority at the moment.
Since His Highness the Crown Prince will be here in person, there are many more guests in the house today than expected. Young talents from various families want to show their faces in front of His Highness, and basically all of them are here.
Nowadays, the atmosphere is also open, and there is no big defense between men and women. It would be the best thing if the daughter can meet the husband she is attracted to.
If you miss this opportunity, if you want to find a good match again, you may have to rely on someone to protect you.
Therefore, for today, Jiang had prepared clothes and jewelry for her daughter early.
She will never allow her daughter’s life-long event to be delayed by the Gu family.
Wei Hanzhang had already prepared for his future destination, but he also understood Jiang's motherly heart, so he honestly let Grandma Sun help him change into clothes.
The material is Liuyun brocade, which is the favorite of ladies in summer. The light green dress is embroidered with elegant flower branches. The style is the most fashionable style in the capital this summer. The chest-high skirt is covered with a light, wide-sleeved blouse. The waist is tightened and the skirt falls in layers, which perfectly modifies the girl's beautiful figure.
The days are long and the nights are short in summer. By the time Wei Hanzhang was properly dressed, it was already dark and Jiang's family also sent someone to call him.
The mother and daughter took a soft sedan to the main courtyard. Many families who were close to the Wei family had already arrived. The female relatives were having tea and chatting in the inner hall, accompanied by several Wei family ladies. Outside, you could hear Yan Yan laughing and talking in the hall. Mrs. Jiang opened the curtain and led her daughter in.
The chatter and laughter inside suddenly stopped, and everyone’s eyes focused on one place...
Ms. Liu, who was sitting at the top, waved to her little granddaughter with a loving face: "Come slowly, come to grandma."
Ms. Jiang smiled and pushed her daughter, and sat to one side. Wei Hanzhang pursed his lips. After a few steps in front of Mrs. Liu, before he could salute, his hand was pulled to stop her.
Mrs. Liu clapped her granddaughter's hand and introduced with a smile to all the princes and wives: "I'm afraid some of you old sisters don't know her yet. This is my Xiaojiu."
Except for the time when she first returned to Beijing, Wei Hanzhang often went out to play, and she stayed at home during these days. In fact, there were not many ladies of the older generation in Beijing who had seen her true appearance.
However, the fact that the ninth girl of the Wei family was robbed of her fiancé by the daughter of Princess Changle is not a secret among the aristocratic families in the capital. Although they have never seen her, everyone here knows that this is a girl who has not yet been married to anyone.
Next to her was Madam Hou from the Yongchang Marquis Mansion. She was Wei Hanshuang's grandmother and Qian's biological mother. Of course Qian had told her that she wanted to be a matchmaker for her nephew.
She put down the tea cup in her hand, smiled and cast her gaze over. She was stunned for a moment. After a while, she praised: "They say the water in the south of the Yangtze River is more nourishing. Now I really believe it. Look at you." Jia Xiaojiu is such a beautiful woman.”
When her daughter talked to her, she only thought that Jiuniang of the Wei family was a girl with good character and appearance, but... she never expected that she had such an appearance.
“Go slowly,” Ms. Liu said with a smile, “Your sixth sister is not here today because she has a wonderful day. You should fulfill your filial piety on her behalf and serve hot tea to her relatives on her mother’s side.”
The ladies present here are all ladies who have been immersed in the inner house for a long time. As the two marquises sang and harmonized, they quickly understood the deeper meaning.
I'm afraid that another good thing is coming soon, but... nobles from aristocratic families pay attention to marrying their daughters with their heads raised, and marrying their wives with their heads lowered.
How can a woman rush to serve tea to a man like this?
“…” Wei Hanzhang, who was the party involved, paused, and under the gaze of all the ladies in the inner hall, he walked to the desks of several ladies in the Qian Mansion.
After pouring hot tea to the eldest Mrs. Yongchanghou first, he nodded to Mrs. Shizi beside him and started serving tea.
The other party looked at her every move with a loving but appraising look. The look in her eyes that looked at her future daughter-in-law made Wei Hanzhang feel more and more unnatural.
No matter what she was feeling in her heart, she always acted calmly throughout the whole process, her face also looked calm and calm, and she looked very self-conscious and indifferent.
After the tea was served, Mrs. Jiang was the only one in the hall who noticed her daughter's embarrassment. She was also very dissatisfied with her mother-in-law's actions, so she came to the rescue and said: "Counting the time, it's time for the Shen family to come to pick up the bride. Ranran, aren't you thinking about it all morning?" Do you want to send your sixth sister to get married? Go quickly."
Sure enough, only mother is good in the world!
Wei Hanzhang, who was afraid of being left asking questions again, cheered in his heart and hurriedly left.
Although she had already known from Jiang that her eldest uncle, Qian, was a matchmaker for her nephew, she never thought that Liu would arrange for her to serve tea to the ladies of Qian's house before she even made the first choice.
It’s inevitable…
It seems that the attitude is too low.
