On the sixth day of February, the sun was shining brightly and the breeze was blowing gently.
Because the next day was the wedding day, Shen Liyue stayed up until the second half of the night before falling into a drowsy sleep. Although she didn't admit it, she was still a little nervous in her heart.
Although she had been married before in her past life, her feelings were completely different. In her past life, she had only met Fang Zhiran once before marrying into the Yong'an Marquis's mansion according to the engagement. At that time, she only wished for a harmonious marriage, mutual respect, and a long life together.
But now her mood is completely different. Thinking of Lu Xingzhou, she is very happy. She is not afraid even if she will be bound by the rules of the palace in the future.
Lu Xingzhou and Fang Zhiran are different, Shen Liyue thought to herself.
Before dawn the next day, Lian Dong and Yu Zhou dug Chen Liyue out of bed. The two of them hurriedly changed her into wedding clothes. Chen Liyue didn't know how many layers the clothes had, so she just let them fiddle with them.
It was not until Lian Dong dragged Shen Liyue to sit in front of the dressing mirror that he carefully looked at Shen Liyue's face. Seeing the two dark circles under her eyes, Lian Dong stamped his feet anxiously.
"What should we do? Look at the two dark circles under the lady's eyes. How much powder will be needed to cover them up?" Lian Dong shouted towards the fishing boat.
Yuzhou walked over and took a look. Shen Liyue stuck out her tongue embarrassedly. It was not that she didn't want to sleep the night before, but she tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.
Yu Zhou looked at it and smiled, "That's all right. We've invited the ladies from Miaozhuang Pavilion to do our young lady's makeup today. I heard their makeup is so amazing, it's like a miracle. They can turn even the most ordinary face into a beautiful flower, not to mention our young lady is so beautiful."
Just as Yuzhou finished speaking, there was a knock on the door, and a servant came to announce, "Miss, the two ladies from Miaozhuang Pavilion are here."
Lian Dong hurried to open the door for them, only to see two women with delicate faces, about thirty years old, standing at the door.
Seeing Chen Liyue, the two ladies bowed to her. Chen Liyue waved and asked them to come in quickly.
The two of them came in and looked at Shen Liyue's face carefully. They couldn't help but sigh: "The girl is really beautiful. She looks so beautiful even without makeup."
Lian Dong interrupted, "What else can I say? Look at the dark circles under the girl's eyes. Can they be covered up?"
The lady from the Miaozhuang Pavilion said, "It's okay, it can be controlled." Another one laughed and said, "It's common for brides to have trouble sleeping the night before. Eight out of ten brides have this problem."
Shen Liyue was embarrassed by what they said and her face turned red with shame.
The two ladies who came to Miaozhuang Pavilion today, one is called Shaoyao and the other is called Mudan, are the two with the best makeup skills in Miaozhuang Pavilion.
Mudan took out a few thin threads from the box she brought with her, folded them in her hands, and said, "I am going to open your face now. I am afraid it will be a little painful, please bear with it."
Shen Liyue knew this would happen; she had experienced it before in her previous life. But even though she had been through it and was mentally prepared, she still grimaced at the scratching of those fine lines.
Mudan chuckled: "Girl is really interesting, even the look of pain is so cute."
Chen Liyue: ...
Shaoyao stood behind Shen Liyue and used a comb to carefully comb Shen Liyue's long hair that was like a black waterfall, praising her as she spoke: "Miss, your hair is also very good, black and shiny, and there is not even a split end at the end."
Who doesn't like to be praised? Shen Liyue was overjoyed by the praise. Lian Dong smiled and said, "Ladies, stop praising us. If you continue praising us, our girl will fly to the sky."
Everyone laughed, and then a voice came from outside: "Why is it so lively?"
Everyone looked towards the door and saw that it was Xie Wanting and Lu Yun who came in together.
Both of them were beaming with joy, "Congratulations on your wedding, Miss Shen!"
Shen Liyue took a peek and saw that Wei Rushu was not behind them. She asked curiously, "Why isn't Rushu here?"
Xie Wanting curled her lips and said, "She has a family now, how can she come with us?"
Xie Wanting sent someone to the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion yesterday to ask Wei Rushu if he wanted to come with them, but Wei Rushu said he wanted to come with Wang Wentian and would not go with them.
Lu Yun smiled and tapped Xie Wanting's head: "Why, are you still jealous of General Wang?"
"Who are you jealous of? You're jealous so early in the morning?" Wei Rushu happened to hear these words when she walked to the door. She came with Wang Wentian, but it was not convenient for Wang Wentian to come into the inner courtyard, so Wang Wentian stayed in the flower hall of the outer courtyard to have tea, and she came in alone to find Chen Liyue.
Xie Wanting was also a little embarrassed and said, "No way."
Wei Rushu didn't take it to heart, she came here today specifically to add makeup to Shen Liyue.
Wei Rushu has already gotten married. When I saw her today, she was dressed like a woman, with her long hair tied up. She looked very different.
But from the expression on Wei Rusu's face, it can be seen that Wang Wentian treats her very well, and a person's happy look cannot be hidden.
As soon as Wei Rushu arrived, he handed over the makeup he had given to Shen Liyue. Shen Liyue opened it curiously and took a look, only to find that it was a box of large and small Dongzhu.
Chen Liyue was a little surprised. This box of Dongzhu was too precious, and Dongzhu had always been used only in the palace.
Wei Rushu smiled and explained, "This was a gift from the palace during our wedding. I figured since you wouldn't be able to wear these fine things in the Northern Frontier anyway, I might as well give them to you to add to your makeup. From today on, you're Princess Yi, so they'll come in handy."
But Shen Liyue still felt that this additional makeup was too expensive and she could not accept it.
Wei Rushu said, "Throw me a wooden peach, and I will repay you with a jade. It's not a reward, but a token of our everlasting friendship."
Wei Rushu quoted this sentence from "Poetry 300", and Shen Liyue could no longer refuse. No matter how valuable the gift was, it was Wei Rushu's intention.
Xie Wanting presented a thick stack of banknotes as usual. In her words: Money is always a burden, and who would complain about having too much money?
However, Lu Yun said that the makeup she gave to Chen Liyue was placed in Prince Yi's mansion, and she would know when she went to the mansion to take a look.
Mudan was halfway through putting makeup on Chen Liyue when she glanced at Shaoyao, who was standing there tying up her hair. She said, "Where's the girl's headpiece? It's time to take it out. You'll need to wear it on your bun later."
Lian Dong and Yu Zhou looked at each other. The eldest master said that he would prepare the headgear, but it has not been delivered yet.
Shen Liyue also remembered this matter, so she told Yuzhou to go find Shen Weian.
Yuzhou agreed, but before he left the hospital, he saw Shen Weian coming in with a girl.
"Haha, I'm late, I'm late." Shen Weian said.
When Shen Liyue saw the girl standing next to Shen Weian, who was also smiling, her nose suddenly felt sore.
Shen Liyue recognized her. She was her sister-in-law in her previous life, Cui Shiyin.
