155. Add makeup
The days passed slowly.
Even though the atmosphere in Rong's mansion was demoted by the master, the atmosphere was a bit sluggish.
However, in the summer that slowly arrived, Rong Shunhua ushered in Rong Shunhua's marriage.
Rong Shunhua's wedding date was set early on the tenth day of the fifth month.
But this day is already summer and the weather is slowly getting hotter. Fortunately, early summer is still a little easier than midsummer.
There is nothing we can do about this.
To choose the day when the Duke of the State can guarantee that he can return from the border, he also has to choose auspicious days based on the eight characters of the two people, so he can only choose this day.
After all, winter and spring are the most popular times when enemies on the frontier are enemies.
As for the Duke of Dingguo, he had to arrange everything before he could return to the capital with confidence.
Rong Qiaoyan followed the crowd and went to give Rong Shunhua a makeup gift.
She held the makeup box and took out a piece of Bu Yao made of gold from it. She said to Rong Shunhua embarrassedly: "My elder sister also knows that I am not generous at hand. This is what I personally drew and asked the master of Zhuyulou to beat Bu Yao, which is called Tongxin. I wish my sister and brother-in-law always have a good relationship and a long time to stay with each other."
Rong Shunhua took Bu Yao and looked carefully.
The top of the step shaking is made of gold to form a overlapping heart, and the bottom is the shape of a branch made of gold.
At the bottom of the heart and the branches, there are several small rubies inlaid in the middle, and three round pearls are adorned with three round pearls. It weighs the weight but it is light and fluttering.
However, this picture is rare and has a good meaning.
According to Rong Qiaoyan's financial resources, she was very attentive - at least, it was much more expensive than the makeup gifts given by other concubines in the mansion.
"Thank you, Sister Six."
Rong Shunhua asked the eldest maid Qingjin to put Bu Yao away.
Rong Qiaoyan was also helpless.
Originally, she only planned to give Rong Shunhua a simple golden hairpin.
Who knew that in Lin Wanqing's boudoir that day, Miss Lin Wu wanted to see her gift.
Fortunately, she made two preparations.
However, the gifts given to Lin Wanqing on the spot were all golden hairpins, and it was not very suitable to give her sister a golden hairpin as a makeup gift.
Therefore, Rong Qiaoyan became cruel and took out some old jewelry, added some money, and made a gold-inlaid ruby-inlaided approach.
I found a good reason for her jewelry.
Others don’t know that she still has money to sell patterns, and she only thinks that her money is sold through pawns and pawns.
Of course, in order to let everyone know how much she valued her legitimate sister, she deliberately cried several times and was poor.
Now, in the backyard of Rong's mansion, everyone knows that in order to curry favor with his elder sister, Rong Qiaoyan spent almost all her wealth to give the elder sister a gold-embedded ruby to him.
Everyone knows that Rong Qiaoyan is now short of money.
After all, it was a gift to the big grandma, a makeup gift to the friends in the boudoir, and a member of the profession.
Even the rewards from the servants were a little stingy.
The eldest lady also heard this rumor and was very satisfied with Rong Qiaoyan's self-knowledge and importance to Rong Shunhua.
Therefore, I gave her an extra jade hairpin.
At least, when you go out to meet someone, you should not lose your face in Rong's mansion.
After Rong Qiaoyan gave her a makeup gift, she took Miaozhi back to Xingruoyuan.
Miaozhi wanted to speak but stopped along the way, but fortunately she knew that she was outdoors and didn't dare to ask casually.
When she arrived at the inner room, she sent the other servants and poured Rong Qiaoyan a cup of warm tea before she dared to ask.
"Miss, your makeup gift to the eldest lady is so expensive, but the gift to the eldest grandma is...Are you afraid that the eldest grandma will be unhappy? In the future, the eldest grandma will be the eldest grandma."
Rong Qiaoyan couldn't help but smile after hearing Miaozhi's question.
"You are just trying to speak but stopping for this?"
After Rong Qiaoyan smiled, she said, "The gift I gave to the eldest grandma is not a very expensive thing, but it also cost me more than ten taels of silver to buy fabric. In addition, I have been working hard for so long, but manual labor cannot be counted as silver. Even so, the eldest grandma doesn't like what we have made by ourselves. Therefore, other sisters have long talked about this. Therefore, this time, the eldest sister's makeup gift was rarely made by us. For this reason, the eldest lady has been angry for a long time. The things are valuable, but what they have made by herself is priceless. However, there is no way, that is her daughter-in-law."
Although Grandma Rong said that day, although she told her own people, some of the newcomers were staring at the bride's style when they came in.
The little maid who was slamming the curtain heard the big grandma's words and saw the old man using two maids to refuse to give her face to her. She knew that she was afraid she had suffered.
Therefore, the little maid went home and told her family about this.
Sure enough, the little maid was beaten to death by the big grandma soon after.
The little maid's family was naturally resentful, but they couldn't meet the master.
So, the big grandma said that day was spread among the servants.
It spread among the servants, and the masters naturally had tacit understanding.
Therefore, everyone gave Rong Shunhua's makeup gift this time, and almost no one did it himself.
Don’t you think what you made with your own hands is worthless?
Then let's buy something.
However, with limited financial resources, we naturally cannot buy any good things. This is also impossible.
This made the eldest lady both embarrassed and helpless, but she could not question her grandma openly. She could only make indirect attacks, allowing her to set a period of more rules.
On that day, the maids who despised the dowry who gave the illegitimate ladies a gift for the girl Hong were scolded by the old man after a few days, which hurt the big grandmother's face even more.
The ladies in the Rong Mansion, except for Rong Zhiming's relative sisters, also had no good impression of this eldest sister-in-law.
The big grandma didn't expect that it would arouse public anger just by just a casual sentence.
After all, she is clearly distinguished by legitimate and illegitimate in her own mansion.
Her mother has always been strict and treated even more harshly with concubines and concubines.
Just say that the purse used to reward people in her dowry was made by her illegitimate sisters.
Therefore, she really didn't care much about the incident of sending the girl-like girl to a casually give birth to a lady.
However, this made the eldest grandma become cautious. She finally coaxed Rong Zhiming back to her heart and understood that Rong Zhiming only needs to treat her well-being.
Therefore, later Grandma Rong became like the eldest lady - they were all hypocritical.
Rong Qiaoyan naturally doesn’t care about the big grandmother’s opinion.
Now the one in charge of the gift is the eldest lady. When the eldest grandma takes power, she has already left.
Rong Qiaoyan thought coldly.
In a blink of an eye, the tenth day of May has arrived.
After a series of ceremonies, Rong Shunhua was sent out of the house by his brothers.
The eldest lady held back her tears and entertained the female guests in the mansion. She waited to see everyone away before returning to her yard to cry.
