832 Wedding Dress (3)
However, she was a young girl who yearned to look beautiful on her wedding day after all, so she thought of a way to embroider a lotus with dark red thread. She also embroidered some peach blossoms in the gauze dress. Because the gauze dress was under the coat, no one could see it. The lotus was embroidered with red thread, so it blended in well with the color of the red dress and ordinary people could not notice it.
She was very proud of her embroidery skill. She thought that at night, in the bridal chamber, when she and Fu Xiuyi lie side by side, she would let him guess and see if he could tell what the pattern of the embroidery was. Fu Xiuyi would eventually see her ingeniousness and slowly like her.
However, in the end, she waited in the bridal chamber for the entire night. She waited until the candle burned out and her heart turned cold, but Fu Xiuyi did not show up. The next morning, she was told that last night, Fu Xiuyi was drunk and stayed in the study. She did not sleep the entire night, but the next morning, she had to enter the palace to pay her respects to the emperor and empress. She made a fool of herself while she was utterly exhausted, which made Fu Xiuyi angry.
Because of that, Fu Xiuyi only touched her after neglecting her for three months.
That wedding dress was the beginning of her pain. From the night of her marriage, countless grievances began to flood her.
Shen Miao had always felt that if one person was good to another, the other person would slowly be touched and reciprocate. Even if she was not reciprocated equally, she would at least receive some good words. However, there was such a person who enjoyed everything given to him by others with a clear conscience and still complained.
She wanted to ask, “Husband, look at this wedding dress closely. Did you find anything?” But in the end, she didn’t ask him. The man for whom she embroidered the dress never cast a glance at it.
She was in a daze until she heard Luo Tan’s exclamation.
Luo Xueyan reached into the box and slowly took out the dress for everyone to see.
She seemed to be very careful, as if she was afraid of damaging it.
The dress was a very bright red color, and the needlework was meticulously done.
The fabric of the dress was scattered with dazzling golden light. It was unknown if it was sprinkled with gold powder or something, but when these golden things were mixed in, the entire dress seemed to be sparkling.
The red dress was made of sea brocade. It was as thin as a cicada’s wing and was scarlet. Outside the red dress that was emitting golden lights, there was a pattern of a dragon and a phoenix embroidered with 12-colored threads. The golden dragon was mighty, and the phoenix was imposing. If one looked carefully, they would find that the eyes of the dragon and phoenix were decorated with small black gems. The dragon scales and phoenix feathers were both decorated with thinly cut cat’s eye stones.
There was no need to mention the cape. There were hundreds of pearls scattered on it, dazzling people.
The most attractive thing was still the phoenix crown.
The gold circlet on the crown was decorated with jewelry. The edges were inlaid with gold bars, and there were 12 gems embedded in the middle. Every gem was surrounded by six pearls, and the gems were separated by pearls. Shen Qiu even counted. There were a hundred colorful gems on the entire phoenix crown, and the rubies decorating the eyes of the phoenix were countless.
