Chapter 569 I hope that the second half of her life will be harmonious and successful
Mrs. Gu really liked these flower-like little girls, and soon she was talking to them until they were giggling and mingling with each other.
Xie Yixiao clicked her tongue twice in her mind, thinking that this lady was lucky to be a woman. If she had been a man, she might not have to be a romantic young man going around seducing beauties.
He might be beaten one day.
Tsk.
"I heard from Mrs. Xie before that she was the thirteenth of her family. We have never had a chance to meet each other, but today we finally met." When the Xie family held a full moon banquet, Mrs. Gu was not in the Imperial City. Later, she came back, and she has been here twice.
It was just a coincidence that I didn't meet Xie's family this time.
She had long wanted to see what the girl who had picked up the jewel in the crown, Mr. Rong Jiu, was like. When she saw her today, although she was not the most beautiful peony in the country, she was like an autumn hibiscus, gentle, elegant, beautiful and dignified.
IKEA room.
Women of Mrs. Gu's age like this kind of girl the most. She is the most excellent candidate for daughter-in-law.
Xie Yi smiled: "It's probably fate. I've heard of Mrs. Gu for a long time, and I met her today..."
"How do you feel when I see you today?"
"It is indeed well-deserved." You like good-looking girls, and your reputation is indeed well-deserved.
Mrs. Gu laughed loudly: "Miss Xie is also very discerning." This girl's words really made me feel happy.
Ming Jing said: "Mrs. Gu is here early, so please sit down and have some tea and some sweets. I will put on the girl's makeup first, and later I will ask Mrs. Gu to comb her hair, so that the girl can enjoy Mrs. Gu's happiness."
"
Mrs. Gu said: "Sure, I really feel bored dealing with a group of old ladies outside, so it's better here. Watching you girls lively and busy, it's like being in the middle of a hundred flowers."
The girls couldn't help laughing when they heard this.
Mrs. Wen led Mrs. Gu to sit down aside, and a maid brought tea and snacks. The girls in the room gathered together in twos and threes to talk, and Ming Jing took some powder to apply makeup on Xie Yixiao.
Xie Yixiao has also personally seen the makeup of several brides getting married. The makeup is relatively thick, and some are so exaggerated that it is difficult to tell what the original color of the skin is.
Xie Yixiao thought that her face was so tormented that her scalp was numb, so she discussed with others that the makeup on the wedding day could be a little heavier, but it must not be applied layer after layer. Der Spiegel
She had stressed it to Ming Jing many times about putting makeup on her.
She really didn't want her face to be unrecognizable to her. If that were the case, when the Ninth Young Master saw her later, he would be so frightened that he would step back and suspect that she had picked up the wrong bride.
Ming Jing's skills in putting on makeup and combing her hair are naturally unparalleled. Although she stopped doing this for half a year, she soon found her skills again. She first applied a layer of balm to Xie Yixiao's face as a base, and then applied
Apply powder, draw eyebrows, apply embroidery, and dot the lips.
Speaking of Huadian, there is a joke in Xizige. The Huadian powder was sold in small quantities when it was newly launched, but very little was sold in bits and pieces afterwards, and it has been temporarily discontinued.
There is no other reason for this. The painting of this flower pattern is really not easy to apply, and it is a test of skills. If the painting is a little crooked, it will almost have to be washed off and repainted. If it is more particular, even the entire face will be painted.
Wash off and reapply makeup.
It is indeed a bit troublesome. After using it two or three times, people no longer like using it.
Xie Yixiao listened to all kinds of feedback, shook his hands, sighed secretly in his heart, and could only accept the ending of "failure is the mother of success", and put the flower powder business on hold for the time being.
However, the flower stickers posted are really simple. If it doesn’t work, just develop some flower stickers for sale.
"girl!"
"girl!"
"Hmm?" Xie Yixiao came back to his senses and looked at the person in the mirror.
Ming Jing laughed out loud: "What is the girl thinking about?"
Someone on the side joked: "Maybe I miss the groom."
Another person said: "Maybe I think the person in the mirror is too beautiful and I am fascinated by myself."
No, you may not believe it, but I was just thinking about how to make money.
Xie Yixiao thought to herself, she is really a vulgar person.
But there was no need to say this clearly. She was the bride today anyway, so it was normal to be shy, so she smiled softly and did not answer the question.
After putting on makeup, the sun was already high, and the sun shone through the window sill in the house. Mingxin and the copper basin brought a basin of warm water over. Mrs. Wen stood up and gave a slight salute to Mrs. Gu: "Madam, please clean your hands and give me a gift for my girl."
blessing."
Mrs. Gu smiled kindly: "You're welcome, you're welcome. This is also my honor."
Mrs. Gu stepped forward and washed her hands with warm water in the copper basin. Hongcha handed her a clean red towel to wipe her hands. After drying her hands, she walked to the dressing table.
Mrs. Wen stood aside, holding a wooden tray covered with red silk cloth in her hand. On the red silk cloth, placed was a white jade comb engraved with Double Happiness and tied with Double Happiness red string.
The room suddenly became quiet. The girls all looked up and saw Mrs. Gu holding a white jade comb, reaching out to stroke Xie Yixiao's soft, black hair, and then combing her hair while chanting:
"Comb it all the way to the end.
The girl with two combs has white hair that reaches her eyebrows.
The girl with three combs has children and grandchildren all over the place.
The four combs bring you good luck, and you will meet noble people on your way out.
Five combs and five sons came to accept the contract, and there were five silver bamboo shoots in all kinds.
Six combs of relatives and friends came to help celebrate, and the mirror in the boudoir was dyed rouge.
The Seven Sisters of the Seven Combs came down to earth to marry Dong Yong, and they treated each other lightly on the Magpie Bridge.
The Eight Immortals of the Eight Combs came to congratulate me on my birthday, and the precious duck traveled on the lotus path.
There are all kinds of nine combs and nine sub-links.
It takes ten combs for a couple to grow old..."
The white jade comb was passed through the hair, chanting a sentence with each stroke.
She combed her hair slowly and recited it slowly, slowly, moment by moment, like a solemn blessing ceremony.
Mrs. Quanfu bestows blessings on the bride, hoping that after she gets married, she will have loving husband and wife, a harmonious family, and a family full of children and grandchildren until she grows old.
Xie Yixiao was still thinking wildly before, chatting and joking with the girls. Now the surroundings were quiet, and her heart slowly fell back to its original position, suddenly feeling a little empty and a little sore.
It seems that everything has been settled, she is about to bid farewell to the life of a daughter in the boudoir, and is going to a new environment and another life.
Everyone is smiling and congratulating her, hoping that the second half of her life will be smooth and successful, and she will finally be successful.
Her slender fingers held the cuffs, which were embroidered with auspicious clouds, lotuses, and phoenix tails. Each stitch seemed to describe her future life.
After finishing combing her hair, Mrs. Quanfu put the white jade comb back into the tray, then slightly bent her knees and said congratulations: "Congratulations to Miss Xie, I wish Miss Xie and Mr. Rong Jiu a happy life."
The girls on the side also stood up and said congratulations one after another.
