Traveling to the ancient harem

Chapter 133 All designed by myself

Huang Ye's coming-of-age ceremony was held in a very low-key manner, with only a few relatives invited. After the ceremony, the families gathered together and had a lively meal, and the event was over. As the news of her return to Beijing spread, she received the first post in her life.

The invitation was sent by someone from the He family in the capital, saying that the eldest daughter of the He family was organizing a chrysanthemum-viewing party and invited the noble ladies in the capital to attend. When they heard that Huang Ye had returned, they also sent an invitation.

Hibiscus Garden.

Huang Ye was sitting next to a bunch of chrysanthemums in the yard. Next to him was a table with a vase on it. There were chrysanthemums of various colors in the vase. From a distance, it looked like a person in a painting.

Huang Ye, now fifteen years old, has lost the baby fat she once had. Her delicate facial features are more three-dimensional, and there is almost no blemish on her fair face. Her pair of black grape-like eyes seem to be able to speak, her long eyelashes flutter, and she has a pretty nose and lips that are rosy without lip balm. Everyone who sees her will praise her for her good looks.

Huang Ye is looking at this post now. It looks very delicate, with lace on the four corners. It smells fragrant and seems to have been made with great care.

"I remember that the He family is the Empress Dowager's maternal family." Huang Ye asked Qing Yuer who was standing in front of him. Logically speaking, the two families had no friendship, and Huang Ye's family background was not prominent, so this post should not have reached her.

"Yes, and according to the information sent by our people, Xu Rou will also attend this flower show." Qing Yu'er was a little worried: "It is possible that she was the one who sent the invitation to the young lady this time."

"After enduring for so many years, it's time for her to come out." Huang Ye smiled gently: Xu Rou, all the materials for preparing Jian Yuehuan are ready, are you ready?

"Miss, why don't you... not go. That Xu Rou has bad intentions." No one knows Xu Rou's ill intentions towards Huang Ye better than Qing Yuer. This might be a Hongmen Banquet, so it would be best not to go.

"Of course I have to go. If I don't go, she'll think I'm afraid of her. This person, no matter how good she is at pretending, can only pretend for a while. She's been pretending to be a good girl for so long, I just want to see what kind of face she can show."

a few days later.

Today was the day to go to the He Mansion to appreciate chrysanthemums. After having breakfast with the old lady in the morning, Huang Ye returned to the garden. She sat in front of the dressing table, looking at herself in the bronze mirror, and asked Ruyi who was holding a comb: "Have you learned the hairstyle I taught you?"

"I can do it." Ruyi has been practicing this hairstyle on the little girls' heads these days and is now proficient at it.

"let's start."

Ruyi skillfully spread out Huang Ye's hair. Huang Ye had very good hair quality, which was black and thick. She parted her hair in the middle and began to braid it along the edge of the scalp, braiding the strands into a braid shape. Every two finger widths, she placed a small chrysanthemum-like flower.

To suit the occasion, Juanhua's hair was a light yellow. She braided the hair on both sides all the way to the end, leaving the inch-long ends and tied them with a hairband to the back of the head. She then used the hairpin given by her second brother to secure it and let it hang down behind her head. The long hair that was hung down reached her waist, which was completely different from the popular bun on the whole head.

There is a thin row of bangs in front of her hair. The noble ladies of the Great Xia Dynasty did not have bangs, but Huang Ye did not care about that. She just wanted to be as beautiful as possible. Moreover, this kind of braided hairstyle was new to her nowadays and it suited her face shape very well. She wanted to amaze everyone today and it would be best if she could make someone very angry.

For her makeup, Huang Ye just applied a little bit of her homemade face cream to protect her skin. Her skin was so delicate that she didn't need any makeup at all. She just trimmed her eyebrows a little thinner along her eyebrow shape, which was completely different from the current trend among noble ladies to draw their eyebrows into a willow leaf shape.

She didn't have much jewelry on her body, just a silver earring on her ear that was not much bigger than a grain of rice, and you could see that the earring was in the shape of a small chrysanthemum. On her neck was a thin silver necklace with a small chrysanthemum pendant hanging on it. On her left wrist were three very thin silver bracelets, which made her wrist look even more slender. Apart from these, there were no other decorations on her body.

The clothes she wore were also very distinctive. Compared with the wide robes and big sleeves that people wear nowadays, she chose the Hanfu style, but the sleeves were made narrower, which looked clean and neat. The upper body was light yellow and the lower body was matched with a light green skirt. Although they were both plain colors, the waist belt in the middle was the highlight.

This waist belt is a slightly darker green than the light green, with a few small yellow chrysanthemums embroidered on both sides. It shows off her slender waist. All the jewelry and clothes are designed by Huang Ye herself. One can imagine how eye-catching this unique outfit will be.

Huang Ye only brought Hong Dou with her. The two of them left the garden and walked to the gate. A carriage was waiting at the gate. As the eldest daughter of the Huang family, she had her own carriage, and it was of a higher quality than her mother's carriage. (If there were no restrictions, the old lady would have wanted to build the most luxurious carriage in the capital for her granddaughter.)

The coachman was waiting beside the carriage. When he saw Huang Ye coming, he nodded slightly. Huang Ye jumped onto the carriage lightly without asking for anyone's help. Hongdou followed suit and lowered the curtain.

"Brother Zhao, let's go." A voice came from the carriage. The coachman answered yes, and the carriage went to He Mansion.

That's right, it was Xiao Zhao who sent them back to Beijing. He had brought his mother to Beijing last spring and lived in the small courtyard that Huang Ye bought specifically for them. He usually ran errands for Huang Ye. It must be said that Huang Ye had a good vision. Xiao Zhao was very versatile and became Huang Ye's right-hand man.
