Chapter 952: Dream of the Red Chamber, Lin Daiyu (115)
"You're quite cunning!"
Li Siqi couldn't help but smile. "Let him be. Judging from the past two years, he's been quite well-behaved."
As long as you're not too carefree, living together as a family isn't bad.
"This time, the master can be considered to be enjoying his retirement."
Little Pot laughed and said, "Just live a simple and ordinary life."
"good."
Li Siqi nodded. "This mission wasn't particularly difficult."
By the way, how is Fairy Jinghuan doing now?
What has become of her and her illusory world?
You should pay attention to it occasionally.
"Don't let anything happen that we wouldn't know about."
"Master, don't worry."
The little pot replied confidently, "The Realm of Illusion is still sealed."
Don't even think about opening it in these hundreds of years.
The Fairy of Illusion is also hiding inside; she can't get out even if she wants to.
Besides, the Heavenly Dao is watching her.
If she makes any other moves, Heaven will notify me.
Heaven doesn't want her to destroy this small world again.
"That's good."
Li Siqi knew that Xiao Huzi was reliable.
I no longer pay attention to these things.
Soon it was time for Lin Dingzhao's first birthday banquet.
There were quite a few people here this time.
The little guy lived up to expectations and caught a pen and a book.
Everyone joked around happily.
Lin Dingxi praised his younger brother like a little adult.
He made everyone laugh so hard.
It was a happy and lively day.
Next.
Xu Ruxin began preparing for her eldest daughter's coming-of-age ceremony.
These are things Li Siqi doesn't need to worry about.
We just have to wait for the day to come.
As the date drew closer, the Sixth Prince personally came to visit.
"Why are you here?"
This wasn't his first time visiting.
It should be said that in the past two years, he would come to the Duke of Jin's mansion whenever there was a holiday or an excuse.
"I brought you some jewelry."
The sixth prince looked at her and said gently, "There are hairpins, hair ornaments, hair sticks, phoenix crowns, hair ornaments, hair ribbons, combs, earrings, and jade pendants of various shapes."
"Take out whatever you can use for your coming-of-age ceremony."
"It seems you've prepared quite thoroughly."
Li Siqi saw the various gift boxes spread across the table.
She couldn't help but chuckle. "What, are you worried that I'm too poor to afford these pieces of jewelry?"
"Different."
The sixth prince couldn't help but step forward to her side, saying, "I may not be as wealthy as you, but I'm willing to give you the best of everything."
"What, are you trying to play the poor card with me?"
Li Siqi tilted her head and looked at him, "Do you want me to get you some silver to use?"
"Okay!"
The sixth prince nodded readily, "Whatever you give me, I will accept it."
Aren't you afraid people will laugh at you?
Li Siqi reached out and poked his chest, "You're being supported by a woman."
Let them say what they want.
The Sixth Prince held her mischievous little hand and said, "They are just envious and jealous; they are sour grapes."
This kind of good thing is only suitable for me; it's not suitable for them.
"His skin is getting thicker and thicker."
Li Siqi glanced at him and then asked, "How is Consort Xiang?"
His mother was promoted to the rank of Consort last year.
She is now a concubine.
"Mother is well."
The Sixth Prince's smile deepened. "She said the skincare cream you sent her last time was very effective."
Both your mother and the Empress Dowager have sent word that they hope you will make more.
They still want to use it.
Many of the concubines in the harem also wanted the skin cream you made.
Because the Empress Dowager and Consort used your skincare cream, they look about ten years younger.
All the ladies were incredibly envious.
My mother specifically instructed me that if making these skincare medicines was too troublesome, I should stop making them.
So that the ladies in the palace wouldn't be so worried.
"Making these things is simple in some ways, and difficult in others."
Li Siqi sat down. "As long as there are enough raw materials, it can be made."
These things are valuable, but they're not too difficult to obtain.
Mass production is definitely not possible.
However, it's fine to make some for family members to use.
I happen to have some here.
You will take this back and give it to Consort Xiang in a little while.
As for whom the Empress wishes to give it, that is up to her to decide.
"Okay, Yu'er, thank you very much."
The sixth prince beamed, "I'm so lucky to be able to marry you as my concubine."
You not only support me, but you also support my mother.
It must be because my father was too poor to support my mother and me.
He shifted the blame onto you.
"Yu'er, you've been wronged."
"Yes, I really did feel wronged."
Li Siqi covered her mouth and laughed, "How are you going to compensate me?"
"Of course it's me!"
The seated sixth prince pointed to himself and said, "From now on, what's mine is yours, and what's yours will remain yours."
I will listen to you for the rest of my life.
Including everyone in our Prince's Mansion.
We must obey the Princess's orders and instructions.
I'm no exception.
Li Siqi raised her eyebrows. "So, you're saying you gave yourself to me?"
"That's not wrong."
The sixth prince replied earnestly, "You could also say that Father Emperor couldn't afford to raise me, so he dumped me on you."
"How about I lose it too?"
"No, you can't let go of it in this life, and you won't be able to let go of it in the next life either."
"Not always."
……
Coming-of-age ceremony!
The guest of honor invited was Princess Minmin's mother, Princess Yuhua.
Princess Yuhua had both a son and a daughter, and was of noble status.
Her willingness to come as the guest of honor surprised many people.
The official in charge, assisting the chief guest, was none other than Wang Xifeng.
This wasn't Li Siqi's first time attending a coming-of-age ceremony, and she was well aware of the process.
Under the watchful eyes of all the guests.
The coming-of-age ceremony will begin at an auspicious time.
Li Siqi walked out to the center of the venue, faced south, and bowed to the guests attending the ceremony.
Then, facing east, Wang Xifeng presented a handkerchief and a hairpin, and Princess Yuhua walked over.
Standing before her, Princess Yuhua loudly recited a blessing: "On this auspicious day of this month, you begin your coming-of-age ceremony. Cast aside your childish ways and embrace your virtuous character. May you live a long and blessed life, and enjoy boundless happiness."
Then, Li Siqi was symbolically given a hairpin ceremony.
Then she stood up, and the guests bowed to her in congratulations.
She returned to her room and changed into a plain dress to match the hairpin on her head.
After you've finished dressing.
Li Siqi came before the crowd and showed the guests her work.
Then face your parents and perform a formal prayer.
This is the first time I've bowed. This time, it's to express my gratitude to my parents for raising me.
Princess Yuhua sat facing east again, washed her hands, and returned to her seat.
Wang Xifeng presented the hairpin, which Yu Hua accepted and walked to Li Siqi.
She recited the blessing aloud once more: "On this auspicious month and day, I present your robes. Respect your dignity and be virtuous. May you live ten thousand years and forever receive abundant blessings."
Next, they performed the hairpin ceremony for Li Siqi, which was a symbolic hairpin.
The guests bowed to her.
Li Siqi returned to her room to change into clothes that matched the hairpins on her head.
She came out dressed again to show the guests.
Then, facing Princess Yuhua, he performed a formal bow.
This is the second time I've prayed.
This is to show respect to teachers and seniors.
