Chapter 29 - 29. Spring Festival I (1/2)
Hong er POV
Today is the festival day and I'm kinda nervous because my identity will be revealed. Huayun was washing her hair and Meiyun was preparing the clothes. Mother said that the dress was made by one of her friends, she is a very famous designer, no one can compare to her uniqueness when it comes to designing. The clothes she made for me is spectacular, mother told her that I have to look gentle because I am a woman but I am from military family so it is a bit like an armor.
The white dress with golden threat embroidery made the armor look gentle and majestic, the bottom of the sleeves were embroidered with gold phoenix so it looks like the phoenix was flying as sleeves were moving.
Huayun asked me what kind of hairstyle that I want, I said that I want a simple hairstyle. Then she braided two sides of my hair and did a ponytail, she put on a little golden crown around the ponytail.
Huayun: ” Miss, what hairpin do you want to use?”
A bunch of hairpins laid on the table in front of me.
Meiyun: ” Miss Miss, why don't you just use this white jade hairpin? It suits your dress.”
Meiyun passed me the hairpin, I looked at the hairpin and the memories came back. Sheng ge insisted to buy me the hairpin so I let him buy it. He took the black hairpin and gave me the white hairpin, he told me to wear it. Maybe I should just wear this one. I nodded, Meiyun passed the hairpin to Huayun. Huayun slided the hairpin into the crown and now it looks like I am a little general. Hehehe.
Even though I said this is a dress but there are trousers. Actually I really like this idea. I put on the golden boots and took my white golden mask. I put it on and went out to greet father and mother.
I went to the main hall and saw mother was sitting alone. She was wearing white and red dress with golden thread embroidery, she looked fierce but elegant. I was staring at mother foolishly in front of the door. Mother saw me and waved her hand telling me to come here. I went to her side and she looked at me closely.
Bai Huiqing: ” My, my, you are so beautiful even with your face covered. Let's go, your father is waiting for us.”
