When girls got married in Ming Qi, they had to embroider the wedding dress themselves. Generally speaking, the ones who were engaged at an early age would start embroidering for themselves a few years before the wedding. The ones who were engaged late would get the embroiderer to make the wedding dress.
If Shen Miao started embroidering a wedding dress for herself now, it would definitely be too late.
Luo Xueyan patted her head and said in frustration, “I’ve been so busy these days that I almost forgot about this. Tan is right. We have to start preparing Jiaojiao’s wedding dress. I’m not familiar with the embroiderers in the capital. Later, I’ll ask my friend. She knows where to buy the best clothes and jewelry. We can’t be careless with Jiaojiao’s wedding dress.” With that, she sized up Shen Miao and smiled. “Jiaojiao has a slender figure. She’ll look good in the wedding dress.”
When Shen Miao heard this, the thought of Xie Jingxing pulling her into his arms and saying “I’ll know after a hug” that day appeared in her mind. She couldn’t help but feel her face burn.
Shen Qiu asked, “Sister, why is your face so red? Do you want me to call a doctor?”
Luo Ling’s eyes darkened. He lowered his head and did not speak.
Luo Tan was smiling and talking to Luo Xueyan about what festive patterns to embroider on the wedding dress when she saw the servant outside rush in and say, “Madam, Master, someone wants to see you.”
“Didn’t I tell you that I won’t be seeing guests for the next few days?” Shen Xin said unhappily. He wanted to spend as much time as he had with his daughter, so he didn’t want to entertain any guests.
The servant said nervously, “It’s… it’s Prince Rui.”
Luo Tan widened her eyes. Shen Qiu stood up and asked with a murderous gaze, “What is he doing here?”
The servant said, “This… I didn’t ask…”
Before the servant could finish, they heard a low and pleasant voice.
“I’m here to deliver the wedding dress.”
A tall figure walked out from behind the servant, his purple robe swaying.
The silver mask emitted cold light, making him look unfathomable. Even if one could not see his face, from the outline of his face, they could tell he must be handsome. He was elegant and noble, so dazzling that people couldn’t ignore him.
He said, “I’m Prince Rui.”
Shen Qiu almost drew his sword. He slammed the table, causing the snacks and plates on the table to tremble. He asked, “You are Prince Rui?”
Prince Rui nodded.
“Why do you want to marry my sister? What are you up to?” Shen Qiu shouted.
Luo Tan’s jaw almost dropped. Shen Qiu was really too hostile to Prince Rui. Even if he was displeased with Prince Rui, wouldn’t it be too offensive to question him like that?
“Jiaojiao is gentle, sensible, dignified, and generous. I’ve admired her for a long time and wanted to marry her. Fortunately, the emperor is kind enough to grant me this marriage and it would be too rude of me to turn it down,” he said slowly with a smile.
