One reason is to finalize the clothes. Nothing can go wrong on the last day, so I want to confirm at the last minute to see if there is any difference. I also want to look at the other jewelry, such as small flowers, big flowers, and double white jade pendants.
Then came the other departments, and also confirmed with Su Changan many of the things that Su Changan would use at the wedding.
As for Gong Zhengsi's coming, the reason was actually very simple. He was seconded to help.
The wedding was really too important, especially because the date chosen was the first day of the new year, which was the day for various countries to pay homage. Therefore, there were dozens of countries participating in the wedding, not to mention the northern barbarians who had fought several wars with Daxia over the years, and countries like Tubo.
Therefore, even in such a public situation, we must not allow ourselves to be criticized.
It can almost be said that almost all the people in the palace were mobilized.
And precisely because it is taken so seriously by so many people, so many people would come early in the morning the day before to make the final confirmation.
Su Changan also knew the importance of the matter. He gave many suggestions on the wedding very seriously and modified some complicated parts beyond the etiquette to save money as much as possible.
But after saving so much, I found that I still couldn't save much. Although I felt sad, there was nothing I could do.
When it comes to the wedding of an emperor of a country, with foreign countries coming to watch the ceremony, it is no longer a question of whether one wants to be frugal or not.
From morning to noon, all the docking was completed and these people left.
And Xunxia and others also carefully prepared the clothes that the Clothing Bureau would give them.
These girls.
Not to mention today, he has had a serious expression every day since the past few days, completely different from his previous leisurely look.
The main reason was that the girls were under a lot of pressure because as the few palace maids behind Su Changan, they naturally had to stay with Su Changan all the time.
The only thing was that when so many people were paying attention to it, especially if there was even the slightest mistake, it would not only bring shame to the Queen, but it would also be tantamount to ruining the entire wedding.
Therefore, these girls either served Su Changan every day or studied etiquette repeatedly, and they were extremely diligent.
Today's Su Mansion
It is also unprecedentedly busy!
Maids, servants, and cooks in the mansion started to get busy early in the morning. But after all, many things had been prepared in the early days, so although they were busy, everything was in order.
Everyone knows what to do and what to be busy with.
This made Su Liushi feel relieved.
Su Liu has been so anxious and irritated these days that she even has mouth ulcers.
And according to what Su Zhaoxin said, the aunt who had such a good temper started swearing in the past two days!
My uncle was scolded several times!
This made Su Changan very helpless. Although he had looked for Su Liushi several times and asked her not to do this, he was helpless. In the end, Su Changan was also helpless.
The reason why the Su Mansion is so busy.
Firstly, it was about the reception when Lin Xuan's envoy arrived tomorrow morning, and secondly, it was about Su Changan's dowry.
As Su Linhan joked, if it weren't for this dowry, she wouldn't have known her family was so rich.
This made Su Changan feel even more embarrassed. He wanted to speak up several times, but every time he opened his mouth, he was immediately talked back by Su Liushi, who had been anxious and angry in the past few days.
After a few times, Su Changan was helpless, but he no longer did such pretentious things.
In the afternoon, Su Changan packed up his things and planned to go out to Yuqing Temple outside the city.
Since it was already a scheduled schedule, I left immediately.
Although Su Wan'er and the others didn't know why their elder sister always went to Yuqing Temple, they never clamored to go with her every time they saw her with a serious expression.
This time is no exception.
Although it still felt strange to leave, after all, we were getting married soon, so why should I go?
but.
She was very well-behaved and watched Su Changan leave in the carriage.
There were still four people heading to Yuqing Temple.
Su Changan, Maomao, Yan Ruyu and Lian Wei.
In the carriage, Su Changan leaned against the window, looking at the people outside.
Especially when he saw the common people pasting the word "囍" (囍) on many places on the streets of the market town, although he felt helpless, Su Changan just watched with a smile on his face.
Sometimes I heard children singing nursery rhymes outside, such as Double Happiness, and I knew that they were probably made up by the storytellers in the theater for the children to sing. The content was probably about how wonderful it was for him to marry the empress and how the whole Daxia was filled with joy.
Big red lanterns can be seen everywhere on the streets, and there are more of them than before!
Su Changan looked at all these with a smile, and kept looking.
Su Changan saw a mother with her two sons.
One of the two sons looked very young and skinny and was held in the mother's arms.
The other one was about seven or eight years old, very strong, and helped his mother carry a lot of things. When he smiled, he was missing a front tooth.
But suddenly
The child suddenly slipped and fell on the thick snow.
When the mother saw this, she immediately decided to put her younger son down and support her older son.
But the boy raised his face and looked at his mother with a smile. His face was covered with snow and turned red all of a sudden, but he was still smiling. He didn't know what he said, but he made his younger brother laugh.
Even the mother looked at her eldest son helplessly, scolded him a little, and then carefully brushed the snow off his body.
The younger son who was put down as a result tried to hug his mother, which made his mother laugh again. The older son was also laughing and saying something.
Then the family of three continued walking forward, talking and laughing.
suddenly
Just then, the child in the mother's arms looked at Su Changan who was looking at them in the carriage.
Their eyes met.
The boy blinked in surprise, feeling that he had seen someone extraordinary, and immediately pulled his mother to look.
Su Changan smiled slightly.
At this moment, a carriage passed by them.
Su Changan no longer looked outside, but looked at the hood of the carriage.
Maomao looked at Su Changan.
Nothing was said.
But Maomao stopped looking at the medical book in his hand and came to Su Changan silently.
Today's Su Changan
He hasn't said a word since he left the house.
On such a day, Yuqing Temple and Qingshan Temple on the other side were crowded with pilgrims.
The main difference is whether you believe more in Buddha or Taoist gods.
When they arrived at Yuqing Temple, Su Changan and his companions did not go through the main hall entrance as many people outside did, but went through the side door.
The Taoist priests at Yuqing Temple were familiar with the place. Although they had no idea who the young lady who often came here to offer sacrifices was, they knew that she was someone that the entire Yuqing Temple could not afford to offend.
So every time Su Changan came, he would lead the way personally, not going to crowded places, but leading directly to the small room where a separate tablet was set up.
After paying his respects, the Taoist left.
Yan Ruyu, Maomao, and Lian Wei were standing at the door, and Su Changan walked in alone.
Lian Wei didn't know who was enshrined inside, but she knew that she shouldn't ask questions, so she didn't say anything more, and didn't tell this matter to outsiders.
Su Changan walked into the small shrine which was neither too big nor too small and was used for offering sacrifices.
Looking at the two tablets, Su Changan didn't say much, but carefully took out some of the things he had prepared.
The things they said were prepared were actually just the best incense and candles, and some normal paper money for burning incense.
Without worrying about anything else, Su Changan lit three incense sticks, looked at the tablet in front of him, bowed, and then carefully inserted the first incense stick into the incense burner in front of his mother.
Then he did the same thing again, inserting the incense into the incense burner in front of his brother.
After.
Su Changan looked at the two tablets without any sad expression, nor did he kneel down on the cushion. Instead, he sat down, then raised his eyes to the two tablets and said softly, "Mom, brother, our son is getting married."
……
Chapter 261 Before the Wedding (Part )
After saying this, Su Changan looked at the tablets. Just like before, he had thought of a lot of things he wanted to say on the way here, but when he really arrived in front of the two tablets, he didn't dare to say it.
He opened his mouth several times, swallowed the words back several times, and finally smiled foolishly.
He gently wiped the tablet and picked it up carefully.
But when he took it, Su Changan's expression was slightly stunned.
Because he remembered that when he traveled through time, he was seriously ill and it was his brother and mother who carried him around.
On the way, my mother always said, "It's not heavy, it's okay, don't look so sad, in my eyes you will be like a newborn, a little thing weighing 6.5 jin."
Thinking of this, Su Changan's hands trembled, the corners of his mouth turned down, and his voice trembled: "Not sinking, not at all."
When he said this, Su Changan pursed his lips, then carefully put down the tablet in his hand, and said helplessly: "That's why I dare not say more."
As he spoke, Su Changan smiled helplessly, then gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.
He said nothing more, but lowered his head and took out the two steamed buns he had brought, and also took out some clean water.
It was not placed in front of the tablet, but was just eaten.
I dared not look up at the tablet while eating. I took a bite of steamed bun and a sip of water.
After he finished eating the two steamed buns, he drank all the water.
