Chapter 260 Wedding Dress
Feng Qingyi's summer vacation life was very fulfilling. In addition to the required courses, she visited Penglaiju every day.
Because he has mastered the method of making ice cubes and has recently launched cold drinks, Penglaiju has once again become popular in Shengjing.
Every day, there is a group of people queuing up to buy cold drinks at the entrance of Penglaiju. Most of them are servants of noble families.
Feng Qingyi heard a lot of interesting gossip about Shengjing from them, including some about Qin Yuchuan.
Although most things related to Qin Yuchuan are quite outrageous.
It is said that when he was ten years old, he encountered a venomous snake in the mountains, fought with it for three days and three nights, and then suffocated the snake to death.
It is also said that he was very stupid before he was three years old. After he fell into a lake and was rescued when he was three years old, he suddenly became smart. He could read the Four Books and Five Classics by heart, and he could also speak eloquently.
It is said that the lake is the one where Xuanyuan Yan got up and regained his sight after falling into it.
In addition to these, there are also gossips between Qin Yuchuan and his few friends. The most common one is the Xuanyuan Banquet, although they are not serious things.
But what they said was impressive and fascinating, and Feng Qingyi listened with great interest.
Xu Linghe didn't understand that Feng Qingyi liked to listen to these weird gossips.
"Qingyi, they are all talking nonsense, why do you still listen so seriously?"
Feng Qingyi: "Don't you think these are interesting?"
"They have paired your man with someone else, and you still find it interesting!" Xu Linghe was even more puzzled.
Feng Qingyi: "I think it's quite novel to be able to hear some of his things from other people's mouths."
"Do you miss General Qin?" Xu Linghe said.
Feng Qingyi: "What does he have to miss? You should think about your brother Yiqing!"
Xu Linghe said: "The peach oolong tea I learned to make from you yesterday, he actually disliked it because it didn't taste good. I don't want to care about him anymore."
Feng Qingyi said: "You two are too childish. Today you coax me, and I will coax you tomorrow, like children."
"To be honest, I always thought that Zhao Yiqing should be the kind of bookworm who abides by etiquette and strict rules. I didn't expect that after meeting you, his whole person changed."
Xu Linghe said with a smile: "As long as I don't provoke him when he is reading or doing official business, he won't be angry at all. Let me tell you a little secret. He likes pink and tender things, and every time he gives me something, he won't be angry. It's pink."
"When I went to Wenyuan Pavilion yesterday, I found him quietly embroidering a pink skirt. When he saw me entering, he quickly put it away. I really didn't expect that a grown man like him could actually embroider."
"I think I can ask my dad to help me if he wants me to embroider in the future. My dad is also very strange these days. He finds a lot of embroidery for me from nowhere every day. He calls it a good job for me. study."
Feng Qingyi: "That little pink skirt should be prepared for you!"
"I don't know, maybe so, but he has given me a lot of hairpins some time ago. All the things I wear on my head are from him. I think I should give him something. Do you have any good suggestions? ?" Xu Linghe asked.
Feng Qingyi shook his head: "I think it's enough to give him a gift that's thoughtful. If he likes you, he will also like it if you give him a straw."
"Then what gifts did you give General Qin?" Xu Linghe asked.
Feng Qingyi thought for a while, "I think the most meaningful gift would be to give him a little lion he carved on his birthday. The rest are random choices."
Xu Linghe: "I think I should also give him something I made myself. When I go back, I will ask my mother what he has given to my father before."
Feng Qingyi looked at his watch, "When Bai Wei came yesterday, he asked me to go to the General's Mansion today. I'm going over now and lend me your carriage."
"I'll go with you!" Xu Linghe stood up.
Feng Qingyi nodded, "Then let's go!"
After arriving at the General's Mansion, Feng Qingyi and Xu Linghe were taken to Qinghuan Courtyard by Bai Wei.
Feng Qingyi was a little confused, "Bai Wei, what are you doing in Qinghuan Courtyard? Didn't you say that my aunt is looking for me?"
"Princess is waiting for you at Qinghuan Courtyard." Bai Wei said.
Entering Qinghuan Courtyard, Feng Qingyi was pushed into the room.
Xu Linghe was about to go in, but was stopped by Bai Wei, "Miss Xu, let's wait here first and then go in later."
"What did she go in for?" Xu Linghe asked curiously.
Bai Wei smiled and said: "The princess's wedding dress has been embroidered for Miss Qingyi. Let me ask her to try it on. Later we will see if it fits and whether there is anything that needs to be changed."
"Wedding dress? Is the wedding date set?" Xu Linghe asked.
Bai Wei shook her head, "Then we have to wait until the general comes back to see the date. The princess wants to finish embroidering the wedding dress first. If there is anything that needs to be changed, she will change it in time. Miss Qingyi has been very busy, and she doesn't know if there will be any changes in the future. Come time."
The two waited outside the door for a long time, and Feng Qingyi was pushed out.
A red wedding dress reflected her flower-like face. Her hair was combed to the top of her head and tied up. She wore a pure gold phoenix crown on it and swayed slightly as she walked.
There was a golden flower patch on her forehead, and her makeup was a bit thicker than usual, but it made it look particularly bright and moving.
"This is so beautiful!" Xu Linghe stepped forward.
Xuanyuan Xi also walked out of the room, "Qingyi, do you think there is anything that needs improvement?"
Feng Qingyi pointed to the phoenix crown on her head, "This is too heavy. It's not comfortable to wear and my neck hurts."
Bai Wei said: "In Shengjing, the phoenix crowns worn by women when they get married are made of pure gold. It only happens once in a lifetime, so just bear with it."
Xuanyuan Xi helped Feng Qingyi take off the phoenix crown on her head, "If it's too heavy, I'll ask them to make it again. Take a look at this wedding dress and see if there's anything else that needs to be changed?"
Feng Qingyi turned around, "I think the wedding dress is very good, there's nothing that needs to be changed, I like it very much."
Xuanyuan Xi looked at it carefully again, and seemed a little dissatisfied, "The waist can be tightened a little, and the back needs to be decorated a little, otherwise it's too ordinary."
Feng Qingyi turned her head and looked at the back hem dragging on the ground behind her. Is this phoenix embroidered with gilded silk thread ordinary?
"I think it's good like this, no need to change it."
Xuanyuan Xi: "That won't work. Something that is only worn for one day can't be perfunctory. I'll change it again and see if there's anything else that can be added to the phoenix."
"Aunt, did you embroider this dress?" Feng Qingyi asked.
Xuanyuan Xi: "I have nothing to do every day, and I thought you still have to go to school, so I helped with the embroidery. But I haven't done it for many years, so I am a little rusty. If Qingyi is not satisfied with anything, just tell me directly."
