The old lady was a person of action who kept her word. The next day she said that the house had not been lively for a long time and she would invite relatives and friends to watch the ceremony after Xie Li's wedding ceremony.
Xie Li was immediately flattered by this, and her face suddenly turned red, "Are you... going to give me a haircut gift?"
After all, she was just a concubine, and she was the least valued concubine in the house.
Xie Qian grew up under the lap of the old lady, and when she got haircut, the house became lively, but she did not invite many guests. She was considered a decent person.
With so many things going on in the house during this time, she thought that no one would remember her and her hairpin, and she was also worried that the Su family would look down upon her because of this.
Aren't you overjoyed now?
The old lady smiled and said: "Although the Su family has already made a decision to accept the haircut ceremony, it has not made a final decision. The hairpin ceremony is still handled by our family. Mrs. Su seemed to have arrived the day before yesterday?"
When the Su family was mentioned, Xie Li blushed immediately and said in a voice like a mosquito, "Yes, I arrived yesterday afternoon."
The words elicited chuckles from several sisters, and Xie Li's face turned even redder.
"That's even better. Let your auntie post the next post and invite someone to come over and play together."
Xie Li quickly agreed that her parents would do her face, and she would naturally be willing to show it in front of her future husband's family.
The old lady immediately asked Mrs. An and Mrs. Yu to bring out the charter. She also asked the girls not to be polite and to call the sisters who usually have fun together. She also said very proudly that all the expenses this time would come from her.
Go on the old man's account.
Everyone understood that this was done intentionally by the old lady for outsiders to see. One was because of the scandal that Jiang Shuhua had caused before, and the other was because of Xie Songhua's marriage, which showed that the Xie family's mentality was stable!
Xie Songhua was worried about the whereabouts of Jiang and his wife, and had to cheer up at this time, not to let her old man's kindness go away.
As a result, the Xie family's inner house, which had been silent for a long time, began to be lively again. Aunt Lan and the others did not know what Xie Songhua was worried about, so they all worked hard to help her dress up for that day.
Aunt Huang personally came to the door, hoping that Xie Songhua could become Xie Li's praiser. This was also because of Xie Songhua's current status.
Naturally, Xie Songhua would not refuse such a favor for her sister. Anyway, all she had to do was help hold the tray.
The guest of honor is the wife of Lan Jijiu who was personally invited by the old lady. She is also the mother of Mr. Lan who used to go to school in Shensi Hall. The two families are closely related, which is reasonable.
So Xie Li's ceremony for getting hairpins was decided, and on the official day, everyone helped entertain the guests in the Shou'an Hall.
Xie Songhua has put a lot of effort into her dress. Now that her identity is here, it is naturally different from the past. However, Xie Li is the protagonist today, and she cannot steal the limelight, so she can only rely on wealth and not be too conspicuous.
.
In this way, Xiangsheng became more stable and dignified, and all the guests who came over praised him.
It is difficult to say clearly whether the praise is coming from the future Princess Chen or from Xie Songhua herself.
Xie Tu sat next to Xie Songhua and whispered to her, "Third sister, I'm so happy today."
Seeing a bit of surprise on her face, Xie Tu said seriously: "I don't know if it's my misunderstanding. In the past, before you came, I always felt that the sisters in our family only looked harmonious and private.
They are not friendly underneath, but now you see...
Even the fourth sister would smile like this. You don’t know that in the past, she always followed Sister Shuhua without even raising her head. I think she still felt inferior to her status as a concubine, but today
, look at the smile on the fourth sister’s face, how confident she is!
I always feel in my heart, third sister, you seem to be the lucky star of our family. Although things in the family have happened one after another since you came, the human touch in this family is obviously more important."
Xie Songhua couldn't help but laugh, "Don't slap me with a high hat. I can't afford it. After all, we are relatives whose blood is thicker than water. How can there be so much life between them?"
"Really!" Xie Tu seemed to insist on competing with her, "Look at the eldest sister, I am not telling you, the eldest sister's temperament is really aloof, probably because of her poor health.
In the past, she would not have come out on such an occasion! But look at her today, she even had her eyebrows drawn and powdered."
After hearing this, Xie Songhua looked in the direction of her gaze. Sure enough, he saw Xie Qionghua with a faint smile, and he couldn't help but smile too.
"Atu, have you ever thought that you are the one who really cares about this family the most?"
The smile on Xie Tu's face immediately froze, and she twitched her lips uncomfortably, "Third sister, what are you talking about!"
Xie Songhua did not continue, but looked at Xie Tu's side face with gentle eyes.
"Prince Baolin has arrived."
There was an announcement outside, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly froze. Everyone immediately stretched their necks to look at the old lady.
The old lady's surprised look flashed across her face, and then she spoke to the lady next to her as usual.
But others couldn't help but look outside.
This Prince Baolin was once the only legitimate daughter of Mr. Xie Ge of the Xie family, and then she became the adopted daughter. There were rumors flying all over the world about the fate of Tianfeng, the importance of fate, and then the draft for entering the palace, and then it happened again.
Such an earth-shattering thing happened.
Now that she has entered the prince's east palace, no one dares to spread rumors about her, but in the end, they are always curious in their hearts as to what is happening to such an almost legendary woman.
Jiang Shuhua has now put her hair up into a woman's bun and is wearing a light red palace dress. She is dressed very elegantly. At this time, even if the skirt is loose, her slightly bulging belly is still very obvious.
Behind her were two palace maids dressed exactly the same. Their every move was serious and rigorous, which immediately made Shou Antang's voice quieter.
However, even though he was so diligent about dressing up, his eyes still showed a bit of tiredness. Xie Songhua was worried that life would not be much easier if he married into the East Palace.
"You're not late. There are a lot of rules in the palace. You have to wait until you're done before you come out. It's already this time. I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up. After all, we are sisters. How can I be away from such an important occasion?"
As soon as Jiang Shuhua came in, she took Xie Li's hand and looked her up and down, and then praised her with a smile, "She is really going to be a big girl, she looks really good today."
This straightforward manner of speaking and acting was quite different from her previous appearance.
The people who came today were all close to the Xie family. How could they not have dealt with Jiang Shuhua before? So they were a little stunned for a while, and everyone was looking at her.
Jiang Shuhua seemed not to notice at all, and happily turned to the old lady, and then saluted with a smile, "Greetings to my grandmother, my granddaughter misses her every day in the palace! Now I see my grandmother.
I am still in such good spirits, I feel relieved."
The old lady's face concealed the disgust in her eyes, and there was a faint smile on her face, "Sit down when you are here! Today is your fourth sister's birthday gift, so don't steal her limelight."
This seems to be true between grandparents and grandchildren who have a close relationship, but the faint look on the old lady's face does not show any intimacy at all, which makes this scene seem a bit embarrassing.
Fortunately, Jiang Shuhua didn't seem to notice it at all and agreed with a smile.
By now, the auspicious time was coming. Just as the old lady was about to remind everyone to get up and go to the prepared room, she suddenly heard excited voices outside, "Princess Shuhe, Princess Huimin, and Miss Gao are here."
