Chapter 605: Our Yiyi Is the Prettiest

When Zi Yi walked over to open the door, she saw her aunts and female cousins standing outside.

The Second Madam said with a smile, “I told you that our Yiyi definitely wouldn’t sleep in.”

The Third Madam added. “Perhaps Yiyi was so excited that she didn’t manage to sleep at all.”

As soon as the Third Madam said that, the others could not help but laugh.

Zi Yi also smiled, but she still defended herself. “I slept well last night. If you don’t believe me, you can look at my face. There are no dark circles under my eyes.”

She then swept her gaze across everyone. She noticed that Dou Xiangling’s makeup was relatively thicker today and she asked curiously, “Xiangling, why did you put on such a thick layer of makeup on today?”

Dou Xiangling revealed an embarrassed expression. Clearly, the others had already asked her earlier.

Dou Yurui explained on her behalf. “Xiangling slipped in the shower last night and accidentally fell, resulting in a small cut on her head.

“Really?” Zi Yi furrowed her brows and approached Dou Xiangling with the intention of checking her wound.

However, Dou Xiangling subconsciously took a step back and said with a smile, “There’s nothing to see, it’s just a small cut, and it’s ugly to look at it.”

Zi Yi stared into her eyes and felt that she seemed to be avoiding something. The frown on her face tightened.

She definitely had something she was keeping from everyone.

At the thought of this, she made sure to pay extra attention to her. When everyone entered her room in preparation for putting on makeup for her, Zi Yi took out her phone with the intention to check Dou Xiangling’s recent phone records.

When Dou Xiangling saw Zi Yi taking out her phone, she immediately knew what she wanted to do. She then said to Dou Yue’er in a whisper. “Yue’er, go and take Yiyi’s phone. Which bride would play with their phones while putting on makeup? What if the bride’s makeup smears?”

The only ones helping Zi Yi with her makeup were the Fourth Madam and Dou Xiangling.

The other four madams helped her with her hairstyle and tiara, while Dou Yurui was responsible for handing them the tools.

The makeup was the first step.

When Zi Yi was putting on makeup, the other three madams went to prepare breakfast.

Dou Yue’er obediently walked over and took away Zi Yi’s phone. She even chided with a deadpan expression. “Cousin, you shouldn’t play with your phone when putting on makeup. Or else, you’ll affect Mom and Xiangling.”

Zi Yi wanted to snatch the phone back. “I’m just going to check something.”

Dou Xiangling pressed down on her shoulders and said with a smile, “It’s not too late to check after you get your makeup done.”

She then turned around and grabbed the makeup bag as she started discussing with the Fourth Madam what kind of makeup style they were going with.

Zi Yi peeked at Dou Yue’er from the corner of her eye.

Dou Yue’er giggled and said, “Don’t look at me, before your makeup is done, I won’t return your phone to you.”

She then put the phone in her pocket and patted it.

Zi Yi shifted her gaze to Dou Xiangling. She felt that Dou Yue’er took her phone because Dou Xiangling had purposely asked her to.

Dou Xiangling did not look at her as she took out the makeup products one by one and put them on the dressing table.

After laying out the products, Dou Xiangling grabbed the eyebrow trimmer and wanted to help her shape her eyebrows.

Zi Yi wanted to take advantage of this moment to check her pulse.

Dou Xiangling seemed to have guessed her thoughts. She glanced at her eyebrows and said, “Yiyi’s eyebrows look fine, it doesn’t need any trimming.”

The Fourth Madam said, “In that case, you can start drawing her brows.”

“Ok.”

Dou Xiangling turned around and put down the eyebrow trimmer. She then took the eyebrow pencil and approached Zi Yi.

Zi Yi wanted to check her pulse the second before she started drawing her eyebrows.

Dou Xiangling’s hand shook and she sternly said, “Yiyi, don’t move.”

Zi Yi looked at her.

Dou Xiangling saw her expression and sighed deep down. At the same time, she said with a helpless voice, “I know you’re worried about me, but I’m really fine. See, aren’t I doing well right now? Can you let me help you with your makeup first?”

The Fourth Madam also chided her. “Little Zi, styling your hair will take longer if you move around while getting your makeup done, and not to mention you have to wear the phoenix crown later. Xiangling only accidentally bumped her head and we have all checked her wound. It’s just a small cut and you don’t have to worry.”

Zi Yi looked at Dou Xiangling for a short moment through the reflection in the mirror. She thought for a moment before she nodded her head.

Dou Xiangling started to do her makeup.

Half an hour later, the First Madam led a few people inside as they brought in bowls of glutinous rice balls.

She passed one of the bowls to Zi Yi and said some auspicious words. “Eating glutinous rice balls in the morning represents completeness. May your future life with Little Lu be peaceful and may everything go smoothly and satisfactorily.”

Zi Yi took the bowl and said, “Thank you.”

The others also started eating the glutinous rice balls.

After they finished eating, the Second Madam and Third Madam started to style her hair.

When Zi Yi changed into the wedding dress, their eyes brightened up.

“Oh heavens, Yiyi looks so beautiful wearing that red dress. She is so elegant, like a Queen from those ancient times that overlooked the whole world.”

“I’m going to wear a design that is similar to Yiyi’s dress when I get married in the future.”

“Yiyi has a nice appearance and so, she is giving off such an effect. When she wears the phoenix crown later, it will certainly amaze everyone.”

“Our Yiyi is the prettiest.”

Everyone praised Zi Yi for a while before they heard some noises from outside. Subsequently, a few young ladies came in.

They are from the madam’s maiden family. Based on the custom here, the bridesmaids need to be in pairs and there cannot be four?bridesmaids1. As a result, they had selected another three young ladies as the bridesmaids.

The six young ladies got their makeup done and they changed into their bridesmaid outfits.

At the end, when Zi Yi wore the phoenix crown, it was more or less time for the wedding to start.

It became increasingly noisy outside.

Dou Yue’er walked to the door and looked outside. Sometime later, she excitedly said, “I heard them saying that the motorcade is about to reach the gates of the neighborhood.”

There were many neighbors who had come to watch the scene of the hustle and bustle.

A few other young ladies had also headed to the door to take a peek.

The Third Madam smiled and reminded them. “Don’t be in a rush to open the door later. Wait for Little Lu to hand you a red packet before you open the door.”

Dou Xiangling and the others thought of the 100 thousand dollars Lu Jingye had given them in the past and Dou Yue’er rubbed her hands with excitement. “I wonder how big of a red packet my cousin-in-law will give us… Actually, my request isn’t that much. It’ll suffice as long as it was as much as the meeting gift from the previous time.”

Dou Xiangling knocked her head and said, “You’re greedy. Do you think 100 thousand is the same as one thousand? Little Lu’s money doesn’t drop down from trees.”

Dou Yue’er covered her head and reluctantly groaned.

Dou Yurui laughed at the side. “One thousand sounds good too, I can buy a set of dissecting tools.”

A few of the young ladies subconsciously shifted to the side at her words.

Zi Yi said with a laugh, “Ah Jing isn’t that stingy. He can’t possibly give only one thousand.”

Speaking of this, she reminded Dou Yue’er. “I guess I can have my phone back now?”

Dou Yue’er was about to take out her phone and pass it to Zi Yi, when Dou Xiangling smiled and pressed her hand. “Yiyi, I’ll put your mobile phone in the bag for you. There’s no room for you to put your phone in the dress you’re wearing now.”

Zi Yi was even more sure now that Dou Xiangling had hidden something from everyone, just by listening to what she said.

She did not force her way either and nodded. “Alright, hand me my phone first. I’ll give you all a red packet first.”

When Dou Yue’er heard her, how could she possibly care that Dou Xiangling was pressing down on her hand? She moved sideways, took out Zi Yi’s phone, and ran to her. “Cousin, here’s your phone. You’re the most gorgeous, most beautiful, and prettiest bride. Someone so beautiful as you must also be the most generous.”
