Qian Xiaoxiao got up before dawn.

She opened the white gauze curtain and looked downstairs. It was still snowing outside.

Today is the wedding of Guan Miao and Shen Yueniang. At this time, the villa is already brightly lit, with red hangings everywhere. At first glance, it is full of joy.

She came to Shen Yueniang's room on the same floor. When she entered the door, she saw Little Baozi still asleep on the bed. He didn't wake up despite any noise in the room. Qian Xiaoxiao expressed that she was very envious of the quality of her sleep.

Mrs. Wang and old man Shiquan were already waiting in her room, but Shen Yueniang was not there.

What is a perfect old man?

It refers to a happy person who has elders above him and descendants below him. Of course, his personality, morals and academic conduct are flawless in all aspects.

In this situation, Shen Yueniang is married for the second time, and she has no family connections.

So Qian Xiaoxiao invited Mrs. Qin from the community to be the Shiquan Elder.

There is nothing remarkable about this old woman. As mentioned before, she is filial to her elders and loves her grandchildren. She is smooth and noble in her conduct.

Now that she was able to establish a relationship with Qian Xiaoxiao, Mrs. Qin didn't even have time to think and agreed directly.

"Where's Yue Niang?"

"It's inside." Mrs. Wang pointed to the bathroom.

It turns out that brides need to take a shower and wash their hair before putting on makeup, which means that by washing away the dirt on their bodies, they can prepare for their married life with a better attitude.

In fact, Shen Yueniang had already washed it last night, but Grandma Wang asked her to wash it again before dressing up. Anyway, given the conditions, such long hair can be dried in a quarter of an hour with a hair dryer.

At this time, the sound of the hair dryer sounded in the bathroom.

Qian Xiaoxiao walked over and knocked on the bathroom door: "Yue Niang, come out, I will help you blow."

The bathroom door opened, and Shen Yueniang walked out wearing a pink pajamas and long wet hair.

Maybe the water temperature in the bath was too high, which caused a pink blush on her face. No wonder everyone said water lotus, she was beautiful after the bath.

"What's wrong?" When Shen Yueniang saw Qian Xiaoxiao looking at her and smiling mischievously, she lowered her head in embarrassment, showing a hint of shyness.

"It's nothing, it's just why my sister-in-law is so beautiful."

"Stop teasing me." Shen Yueniang walked to the dressing table and sat down.

"I'll do it." Mrs. Qin came over and took the hair dryer.

She can also use this. If it were an old woman from another family, she might not be able to use it, but she is different from others.

She likes new things, and the house her son bought really pleases her.

When Guan Miao asked people to learn various home appliances before, she also went and learned very hard.

"Mrs. Qin, let me do it. You sit down for a while. After I dry it, you can start again. There are many things that we can't move. Please enlighten me." Qian Xiaoxiao said with a smile.

"Oh, I can't help but give you advice. Who doesn't know how capable Boss Qian is? The old woman really got the benefit of Boss Qian to live the life she has now."

"Madam, you are joking. You can live such a life only if you have a good life and a filial son."

"Boss Qian is really good at talking. He said that the old woman's heart went up."

Qian Xiaoxiao was blow-drying Shen Yueniang's hair while chatting with Mrs. Qin and Po Wang.

As he started doing business and established a nursing home and a nursing home, Qian Xiaoxiao learned how to get along with others.

Now she can play with a three-year-old child, talk to a white-haired old man about people's livelihood and family disputes, and even talk about business with men and women of the same age, all in a clear and logical manner.

She is no longer the same person as before who didn't even know how to give gifts to Xiaobai.

After drying her hair, Mrs. Qin took it.

She picked up the comb and said: "The newlyweds are particular about combing their hair. We have to pass on the things left by our ancestors. There are some things that less and less people know about as time goes by."

As Mrs. Qin spoke, she took a comb and combed it from Shen Yueniang's forehead to the end of her hair, and said auspicious words:

“Once you comb it to the end, you don’t have to worry about the love between husband and wife;

Two combs are combed to the end, and the white hair reaches the eyebrows and joins hands;

If you comb three combs to the end, the couple will be free from illness and worry;

If you comb four combs to the end, your children and grandchildren will be blessed with good fortune and longevity;

Five combs are combed to the end, and they will be together forever;

If you comb six combs to the end, everything will go well and good luck will come;

After seven combs are combed to the end, the gods descend to earth to greet them happily;

The eight combs are combed to the end, and the Eight Immortals are crossing the sea to celebrate;

If you comb nine combs to the end, you will be happy for a lifetime;

If you comb ten combs to the end, you will have white hair in this life and past lives. "

At this time, Shen Yueniang's mood was very complicated.

When she married into the Bai family, it was a wedding. There was no wedding or ceremony, and she acted like a great person on the same day.

She was very lucky that she could take her favorite son to marry Guan Miao, who loved her and her son.

Next is makeup.

Qian Xiaoxiao was guiding Mrs. Qin from the side. Mrs. Qin was not annoyed by Qian Xiaoxiao's behavior. She had heard that Qian Xiaoxiao's makeup skills were superb, so it would be good to learn one or two tricks today.

Grandma Wang was sorting out the wedding clothes she was going to wear.

This is a set of phoenix crowns and harems. In ancient times, the bride wore a phoenix crown, a red hijab on her face, a red silk shirt on her upper body, an embroidered red robe on her coat, a Tianguan lock on her neck, a magic mirror on her chest, a harem on her shoulders, and children and grandchildren on her shoulders. Bag, silver bracelets wrapped around her arms; she wears a red skirt, red trousers, and red satin embroidered shoes. In short, she is so red.

This is what Xiaoyao got in exchange for Tao, and it is quite in line with the style of this era.

Having said that, some people will say that in ancient times, there was a strict hierarchy, so how could ordinary people wear phoenix crowns and harems?

There is also a saying for this.

Fengguan Xiapei was originally the wedding dress of the palace nobles and was not allowed to be worn by ordinary people.

Queen Bigfoot Horse was born among the common people, so she said: "No matter how poor or rich a woman is, all women in Ming Dynasty can wear royal clothes - Fengguanxiapei - when they marry."

Since then, Fengguan Xiapei has been spread among the people.

Empress Ma stipulated that civilian women could also wear it during their weddings, and this kind of Xiapei was just like the buns worn by officials. Depending on their status, the patterns embroidered on the clothes were also different.

"Xialei" originated from the clothing of Taoist leaders in the Tang Dynasty.

At that time, most Taoist leaders used "Xiapei" as their robes.

The emperor of the Tang Dynasty admired Taoism, so he ordered the women in the palace to wear Xiapei.

Later, with the changes of the times, the clothing of women of the government and civilians before and after marriage changed. They wore silk before marriage and silk after marriage to distinguish whether women were married or not.

In the Song Dynasty, ordinary women could only wear robes, but they could not embroider cloud patterns. Only women from official families could.

In the Ming Dynasty, although ordinary women could embroider cloud patterns, the color of the thread used could only be dark cyan, which can be regarded as a division of social class.

Bai Juyi, a famous poet of the Tang Dynasty, once sang in his "Dance Song of Neon Clothes and Feather Clothes": "The rainbow robes are waving their crowns, and the pearls are piled on top of them."

It can be seen that as late as the Tang Dynasty, Xialei had become an accessory that women liked to wear.

But it was not until the Song Dynasty that Xialei officially became an important accessory for women's dresses in Chinese folklore.

As for how Fengguan Xiapei dispersed in this time and space, Qian Xiaoxiao has not inquired.

It was only when she was buying embroidered clothes for Shen Yueniang that she went out and asked if people could wear phoenix crowns and harems, so she changed to this one.
