Chapter 124 Returning to the door
Yu Zhu followed the female relatives to the flower hall. The maids had already set up the table, and everyone sat down according to their status.【26nbsp;】
Mrs. Cui pulled Yu Zhu to sit next to her, with a gentle smile on her face. She also filled a small bowl of extremely nutritious rock sugar and blood swallow cup with her own hands and handed it to Yu Zhu, saying lovingly: "Listen to Ruan
Mom said you didn’t even have a small kitchen in the Cheng family, so the rough meals in the big kitchen might not be suitable for a naughty little kid like you."
Yu Zhu scooped a spoonful of the extremely crystal-clear and soft soup into his mouth and said with a smile: "How can you be so pampered? Even though it is a big kitchen, the ingredients are clean and it is good to eat." That's the good thing about Yu Zhu.
If you can enjoy it, enjoy it. If you can't, you won't get entangled. You can adapt to the environment very well.
Yulan took a good look at Yuzhu, and saw that she was wearing a scarlet ruffled peony dress with gold thorns, her black hair was combed into a slanted pony bun, and she had a golden silk inlaid with ruby sapphire and sapphire hollow pair.
Luan peony hairpin, dazzling gold earrings set with rubies and rhombuses dangled on her jade-like earlobes, making her fair and delicate little face vivid.
Smart and beautiful. Because she is a new woman, you can see the strange blend of charm and pure light in those bright eyes, which makes her whole person exude a strange aura... Yulan stared straight at her for a long time.
Yu Zhu noticed it and looked over subconsciously. Scanned by those sparkling eyes, Yu Lan lowered her head subconsciously.
After a moment, she raised her head again, with a look in her eyes. She had dared to grab things from Yu Zhu since she was a child, and she had never been merciful in secretly suppressing this younger sister. When did she dare not even look directly at her like this?
Ms. Cui looked at the scene in front of her with a faint smile, but there was extreme satisfaction deep in her eyes. This was the reason why she had endured Aunt Sun and Yulan wandering around in front of her eyes for so many years and served them delicious food and drinks.
Hongdou suddenly trembled and looked at Yulan who seemed to have changed. What was going on? Didn't Sister Lan marry into the Yongchang Hou Mansion? Although she married a bastard, how could this happen?
To be so humble? She didn't miss Cui's condescending look. Could it be... She didn't dare to think about it anymore. In ancient times,
Do these housewives actually have such scheming ideas? Has she been looking down on them all these years? Hongdou thought of the princess in the Runan Palace who never had any other expression except a smile, and how even when she knew that the prince was being half-controlled by herself,
The imperial concubine, who was still acting gentle and virtuous even after Dao Jie left, suddenly felt a little creepy...
There is actually no need for Yumei and Hongdou to come when Yuzhu returns home from the third day. Since they are here, there must be a purpose. Unlike Hongdou's showing off and being proud, Yumei's attitude is very low, looking at Yuzhu's eyes.
Even a little flattering, Yu Zhu took another spoonful of soup and drank it, feeling the sweet and soft liquid soaking all the taste buds, and couldn't help but reveal a happy smile on his face.
Calmly scooping up another red date, Yu Zhu thought for a moment and understood. Judging from the people and things he saw during the last full moon ceremony, Yu Mei's life seemed not to be easy. Her mother-in-law was sick and her father-in-law was weak.
It's unreliable, and having Aunt Qing waiting for her is enough to give her a headache, not to mention that she has a concubine in her own yard, and her husband has to deal with it.
——This is the tragedy of marrying into a businessman. There is no respect for rules, and the crime of doting on concubines and destroying wives cannot be held against them. It would be okay if Yumei is favored, but if she is not liked by Wu Bokun, she may not even be able to maintain the dignity of a head wife.
...After all, the second master's official position cannot threaten the Wu family at all, and the Liang family is of no use either...
She brought her husband to the house because she wanted to take her home to support her. There was an uncle who was a third-rank minister of the Ministry of Justice behind her. How could the small Wu family not support her? Yu Zhu was unkind.
Smiling, she thought evilly, how could she and her mother look so kind and easily moved by people who don't care about past grudges? Are they supposed to be forbearing before the family is separated?
Glancing at Yumei coldly, Yuzhu continued to report to Cui about the situation at her husband's house, but he only said it in nice words, saying that there were outsiders here.
"Sister Zhu is really lucky. I can't even think about living a life like this." Just as she was talking happily, Yu Lan suddenly said this quietly.
The smile on Mrs. Cui's face faded slightly, and she asked doubtfully: "Sister Lan, what's going on? Wasn't it fine when you came back last time? It's only been a long time, but what happened?"
Yulan raised her head, and two lines of clear tears fell down her slightly sunken cheeks, and she said clearly: "Since entering the house, my daughter has come to her mother-in-law every day to set rules, serve her mother-in-law, and serve her husband. She dare not be negligent in the slightest.
, got up the earliest and went to bed the latest, even the dowry maids took the initiative to open their faces and put them in the house..."
Mrs. Cui knew that she was complaining, so she didn't point it out. She just slowly showed a distressed look on her face and advised: "My son, that's how being a wife is. Or it can be said that it is the result of years of being a daughter-in-law."
Po, this is always going to happen for a while, so I’ll let it pass. I’ll bring some bird’s nests back later and let Lu Wei stew them for you to eat, so you can replenish yourself.”
The words were impeccably spoken. Yulan choked and her tears fell even more fiercely. She wiped her eyes red with the handkerchief and choked out: "Thank you for your love, mother."
"As long as you live a good life, Aunt Sun can feel at ease underground." Cui named Aunt Sun casually, reminding Yulan who instigated her to fight for this marriage, and she couldn't blame others.
"That's fine, but in the past two years, my mother-in-law used the name of my infertility to stuff several wives into the house. She also arranged for me to take two concubines, and my aunt also sent two maids.
..." Yulan's tears fell even more fiercely, and she cried in a hoarse voice: "How can the first-in-law get pregnant before the main marriage? My daughter is going to find someone who secretly got pregnant, and my mother-in-law is still protecting my daughter...
A daughter-in-law is not as good as a maid, how can a daughter have the face to meet other sisters-in-law..."
Hong Dou's eyes turned red when she heard this, and so did she. After entering the house for so long, the Crown Prince stayed in his own room even longer than he did in the Crown Prince's room. But now that the Crown Princess is about to give birth, she still doesn't move at all.
None, and couldn't help but feel a little sympathy for Yulan, "Why are you, mother-in-law, so impatient? Can the children born by a direct wife be the same as those born by a concubine? No matter how many children are born by the first wife, they are all born by maids. How can they be compared to those born by sister Lan?
Is it noble?"
Yu Zhu's stomach almost ached from laughing. Is this comforting or sarcastic? Yulan herself was born by a maid, and sister Hongdou, you were also born by a maid. How come this fellow countryman hasn't entered the role yet?
Yulan's face also stiffened, and she lowered her head and stopped talking.
Mrs. Cui touched her lower lip with a handkerchief, glanced at Yu Lan's thin body wrapped in brocade clothes, slightly raised the corners of her mouth, and said: "No movement yet? Have you asked the doctor to take a look? Her body is not in good condition."
Okay?" Looking at Yulan's unnatural look, Cui sneered in her heart, or doubting herself, "Forget it, no matter what, I will tell the master later, and we will invite a doctor to take a look. There is no such thing as a woman.
What should I do with the child?" At the same time, he lovingly served Yulan some vegetables and said with a smile: "We haven't seen each other since the last time we came home. It's a rare trip to come back. Eat more. It makes me feel bad to see how thin you are."
Yu Lan thanked her with tears in her eyes, and started eating slowly while holding the bowl. During the dinner, Yu Mei carefully teased, and Hong Dou showed off intentionally or unintentionally, which was quite interesting.
After the meal was finished, the maid came forward to clear the table and served fragrant tea. Mrs. Du and Mrs. Tang looked at each other and knew that Mrs. Cui wanted to talk to her sister-in-law alone, so they both stood up with a smile and stopped talking to each other.
, Mrs. Du has already experienced it over the years, and the scene makes people feel comfortable to the core when talking about it. Upon seeing this, Mrs. Cui took the opportunity to take Yuzhu to see Rui Geer, and took the person to the tip.
"Tell me the truth, is my uncle treating you well?" Mr. Cui is so smart. Cheng Xunxun is the second eldest son. In the future, Cheng Guogong's mansion will definitely belong to Cheng's eldest son. After the separation of the family, he will still have the final say on the second wife. In comparison,
Mother-in-law and sisters-in-law are of secondary importance.
Yu Zhu stammered and grabbed Cui's sleeves, whispering: "Okay... pretty good." After pretending to be a lady for so long, she was still a little embarrassed to discuss her husband-in-law in front of her mother.
Mrs. Cui was half relieved when she saw her daughter looking like this. With Yu Zhu's appearance, she was not worried about not being liked by her husband. She was just worried that she would be affected by the previous incident and be angered by the Cheng family... Mrs. Cui's eyes flashed.
Han, it seems that the Cheng family is quite sensible.
"You just walked in, and your eyes are still dark. Mom doesn't dare to find anyone to ask you about your situation. Now you should quickly tell mom, what is my uncle's attitude towards the people in his house?" Ms. Cui was most worried about.
It's because my daughter has never been wronged since she was a child, and she can't hold her breath at a young age, leaving a domineering and unruly impression on the Cheng family.
Yuzhu buried her head in Cui's arms and smelled the faint warm fragrance of her mother. She felt more at ease than ever before. The tense nerves in the past few days also slowly relaxed. She knew Cui's methods, let alone
Having a married couple, which kind of woman can't handle it at the snap of a finger, but now she is so anxious and worried about a married couple who was born as a maid... It's all for herself.
"I'm not afraid. Even if I only learn one-tenth of what my mother taught me, it will be enough for my daughter." Yu Zhu smiled and twisted gently in Cui's arms. Cui was extremely soft-hearted and said with a smile: "
Just your sweet mouth."
"And your mother-in-law should also be careful. Don't treat your mother-in-law like a mother. Just respect her... Mother doesn't ask you to develop or win over people, just protect your own yard... Don't act coquettishly with your uncle.
There is a limit, and going too far is not enough..." Ms. Cui knew that she didn't have much time, so she could only give her instructions carefully and in detail.
There was endless words to say, and Mrs. Cui couldn't leave for too long. She counted the time and walked back with Yuzhu. As soon as she reached the door, she heard Yulan's sad cry in the house: "...Father...
, it’s okay to be shameless to my daughter, but this is not taking the Lin family seriously, my daughter can’t bear it anymore.”
Then I heard Lin Yuanzhi's calm voice: "What do you want?" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to subscribe and reward. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
