Chapter 739: Appointment (8)
"I have seen the princess!"
Everyone bowed their knees and saluted Xiao Fang, only to see that Xiao Fang deliberately paused, and then raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Why do my in-laws need so much ceremony in the future, let's ignore it."
Although everyone knew that Mrs. Fang was holding Qiao, they did not dare to put their sullen face on their faces. Only Mrs. Huang secretly snickered and thought: It seems that Nangong Yue's marriage is also superficial, and this stepmother is also a mother. I am afraid that the next princess will have to toss!
Thinking about it this way, Huang Shi's irritable mood has finally calmed down a lot these days.
"Princess, please take your seat!"
Because Princess Zhennan's grade was higher than that of the Su family, the Su family gave up the throne to the Xiao Fang family, and the Xiao Fang family sat down politely, and everyone took their seats.
Following Xiao Fang's gaze, he fell on Nangong Yue, and said with a smile: "Yaoguang County Master, how are you doing?"
Nangong Yue bowed her body, made a shy look, lowered her head slightly and said, "The fluctuating light is very good, thank Princess for your concern."
Xiao Fang immediately looked away and said to Ming Jing, "Ming Jing, don't hurry up and bring all the small gifts."
"Yes, princess." Ming Jing hurried to the entrance of the hall after salute, followed by four maids and walked in with four boxes of small gifts. The first box contained gold collars, gold bracelets, golden hairpins and other gold accessories. The second box contains various jadeite jewelry such as Yu Ruyi; the third box contains red embroidered clothes; the fourth box contains all kinds of fine fabrics, among which there are very rare cloud brocades.
Although this small ceremony cannot be said to be particularly solemn, it is quite complete. Mrs. Lin nodded slightly in her heart, while Mrs. Fang covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled: "Old Madam Nangong, Second Madam Nangong, it is really rude to say. Xinglai Wangdu was in a hurry, and I never thought that the emperor would give Yi Ge'er a marriage, so he prepared in a hurry, which made the in-laws laugh."
"Where, the princess is so polite." Su Shi hurriedly smiled.
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw an unfamiliar green-clothed maid hurried in, and Hua Rong saluted: "Wang...Princess, it's not good!"
Xiao Fang's heart was proud, but he pretended to be sullen: "Ming Mu, what are you talking about! How can you say 'bad' on this good day?"
Mingmu bowed again and said in a panic, "Please forgive me, princess. The pair of live geese are gone!"
Everyone in the Nangong Mansion was stunned, and Lin Shi even had a bad premonition.
"It's gone?" Mrs. Fang frowned, but said deliberately, "Why did this geese disappear?"
"Princess, it's not gone, it's... it's..." Ming Mu thought about it again and again, and couldn't use the word "death", so he could only put it another way, "I'm out of breath!"
"What?!" Mrs. Fang was so angry that she slapped the table. "That pair of live geese came here specially for the sake of hunting today. How can you say you're not angry, you're not angry?"
"The slaves don't know what's going on." Mingmu said aggrievedly.
The live geese used for the Zhi ceremony actually died! The news was like a flat-bottomed sound of thunder, which blew everyone away, and the maids present hurriedly covered their mouths to stop their exclamations.
The yanyan ceremony in this Naji, because geese are rare, usually has been changed to wood geese. However, in order to show respect for the Nangong family, Xiao Yi personally went to hunt a pair of live geese and returned as a gift.
But when it was time to settle down, this pair of live geese died, which is really unlucky!
