After agreeing on the wedding date, the Shen family began to prepare.
Those large betrothal gifts were also bought back with Gu Jingyuan's accompaniment. When Gu Jingyuan and Shen Qingmiao came back, they were faced with envious looks.
After they left, there was even more discussion behind them, and everyone said that the daughter of the Shen family had married into a wealthy family.
Such a big commotion naturally made the Shen family's old house know about it. Because she was too busy, Shen's mother also asked her second sister-in-law Wang Xiaohe to come and help.
Wang Xiaohe agreed immediately, and after learning that the Gu family was not an ordinary family, she worked even more efficiently. As for the eldest wife, since Shen Jianlin moved to the county town, Uncle Shen and Aunt Shen had been visiting Shen Jianlin during this period. For a while, they were not well informed of the news in the village, and finally learned about Shen Qingmiao's marriage through other people.
After they knew about it, they were also dismissive. After this period of time, Shen Jianlin had made a lot of money. Otherwise, he would not have moved to the county town to live.
Old Master Shen was even more satisfied with his actions at the beginning of the year. If the family had not been divided, his eldest grandson would not have achieved such success.
For Shen Xuewen's family, it doesn't matter whether the eldest wife is there or not.
When others told them the news, they all said indifferently, "Oh, their Qingmiao got married."
Just a brief sigh and nothing else happened.
The cold attitude of Uncle Shen's family let the villagers know that they really had a bad relationship with Shen Xuewen's family.
In the blink of an eye, it was the wedding day.
Red paper-cuts were pasted on the windows and doors of the Shen family's house. The scene and atmosphere were filled with joy, and everyone's face was filled with happy smiles.
Shen Qingmiao was called up early in the morning to dress up. Sitting in front of the mirror, thinking about today, Shen Qingmiao's face still showed some nervousness.
"We're really getting married." He murmured, as if all this was just a dream, unreal.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Shen Qingmiao remained motionless for a long time. After a long while, she finally began to move.
Shen Qingmiao took out the cosmetics she had stored in her space. Since it was her wedding day, she naturally had to put on some beautiful makeup. She skillfully picked up the tools and began applying them on her face.
She applied nude makeup, which was not so obvious, and the makeup made her eyes and lips stand out more. Looking at herself after putting on makeup, she felt a little more charming than before.
Shen Qingmiao nodded in satisfaction, not knowing what Gu Jingyuan would look like when he looked at her.
After finishing her makeup, Shen Qingmiao began to comb her hair. Today's look naturally required a perfect hairstyle. She first divided her hair into several strands, then began to braid them, and finally put them up in a bun. She also left some loose strands around her forehead and ears.
After finishing her makeup and hair, Shen Qingmiao began to change into her dress for the day. It was called a dress, but it was actually a red dress.
This red dress was bought specially for her by Gu Jingyuan.
Shen Qingmiao, wearing a dress, stood in front of the mirror. In the mirror, she looked even more beautiful than usual in her red dress. The bright red dress made her snow-white skin look even whiter and more delicate, like the finest white jade. Her already charming face became even more gorgeous.
Looking at her beautiful self in the mirror, Shen Qingmiao showed a satisfied smile on her face.
As the bridesmaid invited by Shen Qingmiao, Shen Qiuxia went directly to the Shen family after she had breakfast. After greeting Shen's mother who was busy in the yard, Shen Qiuxia came to the door of Shen Qingmiao's room.
"Qingmiao?" he called out tentatively.
"Come in quickly."
When Shen Qiuxia walked in, she saw Shen Qingmiao, who had changed her clothes and put on makeup, sitting in front of the table looking at her. When she saw Shen Qingmiao, she was amazed and envious.
Is this really the Shen Qingmiao she knows? She seems to have become even more handsome.
Walking over, Shen Qiuxia couldn't suppress her inner curiosity and asked: "Qingmiao, how did you do it? It feels completely different from usual. How come it looks so good!"
Looking around Shen Qingmiao, the amazement in Shen Qiuxia's eyes could not be shaken.
Shen Qingmiao chuckled at the compliment and said, "I just made this up randomly. If you're interested, I can teach you."
Shen Qingmiao had already cleared away all the modern cosmetics on the table, leaving behind cosmetics unique to this era. That expensive lipstick was bought for her by Xue's mother when they were shopping together.
"Why don't you sit here and I'll help you put on some simple makeup." Shen Qingmiao said, looking at Shen Qiuxia's envious eyes.
"Is it okay?" Shen Qiuxia was very eager in her heart, but she still asked Shen Qingmiao to avoid delaying her.
"It's okay. I'm fine sitting here now."
"Then I'll trouble you, Qingmiao."
Hearing Shen Qingmiao say this, Shen Qiuxia was eager to try. She sat in the seat that Shen Qingmiao had given up, letting Shen Qingmiao fiddle with her face.
Since there weren't many cosmetics at the time, Shen Qingmiao could only put on a simple makeup for Shen Qiuxia. But even so, looking at herself becoming more beautiful in the mirror, Shen Qiuxia happily thanked and praised Shen Qingmiao: "Qingmiao, you are amazing. I feel like I don't look like myself anymore. I didn't expect that I could become so beautiful. Thank you so much, Qingmiao."
"It's quite simple. You can try it yourself later."
After that, the two girls stayed in the room and talked quietly. Occasionally, a familiar older sister or aunt would come in to see Shen Qingmiao and say words of blessing.
Gu Jingyuan started making preparations early in the morning. The car used to pick up the bride had already been tied up with red ribbons. Gu Jingyuan was wearing a handsome military uniform, which fully revealed his upright and tough temperament.
