Chapter 32: On the wedding night, I was suppressed
Yan Hong was a little frightened by Song Sisi's stare. She stiffened her hair and said, "Girl, why don't you show mercy and serve the new lady for a few days?"
"What! You actually asked me to serve a concubine?" Song Sisi was instantly angry after hearing this.
Although she was only the daughter of a small businessman, she believed that she had a much higher status than Sheng Luoan, who was born as a concubine.
It was just that Sheng Luoan had some bad luck and was granted a marriage by the Holy Emperor, so he had to join the Marquis Mansion as the principal wife.
Yan Hong knew that Song Sisi had misunderstood, and quickly explained:
"What I mean is that you thought that the Marquis had... problems, so you didn't go to see the Marquis. And the Marquis seemed to have forgotten about our yard..."
Before Yan Hong could finish her words, she was interrupted by Song Sisi: "What do you mean, you want me to show my face in front of the Marquis while he is interested in women?"
Yan Hong nodded, "Yes, girl, you are so beautiful, what man would not be tempted by you?"
Song Sisi's expression softened, and she said thoughtfully: "I was personally chosen by the eldest lady to enter the mansion. I want to see if that concubine dares to let me serve her! Humph!"
When Sheng Luoan woke up the next day, she was the only one left in the room.
To be precise, she was the only one left on the ground.
Gong Moye's figure has long disappeared.
Her head was a little dizzy, and she vaguely remembered that after Gong Moye hit her last night, she struggled to get away but failed.
Then, the medicinal effects of the accidentally drunk sip of wine took over, and she fell asleep.
She didn't know how long Gong Moye had been sleeping on the ground. Anyway, she slept all night. Mr. Gou woke up first and didn't move her to the bed to sleep.
I really don’t know how to show mercy to others.
Hearing the movement inside the house, the door was gently pushed open from the outside.
Several maids carrying toiletries filed in.
Su Ying walked at the end, accompanied by an older maid who looked somewhat familiar.
Su Ying said her name was Zhujuan, she was also a maid from Sheng Mansion, and she came here to temporarily replace Hua's mother for a day.
After several maids came in, they began to help Sheng Luoan dress and wash herself, while Zhujuan calmly walked towards the messy bed.
On the second day of the wedding, the new daughter-in-law needs to serve tea to the elders in the house, so today's dressing up is particularly grand and complicated.
A moment later.
Sheng Luoan looked in the bronze mirror at the woman with creamy skin, bright eyes and white teeth, cherry red lips, and lazy brows, and suddenly there was a hint of a bride's smell, and she was slightly stunned.
"Is this me?" she couldn't help asking.
Su Ying just thought that she was not used to her new hairstyle, so she quickly explained: "Miss... Oh, madam, you are now a marquise, so your hairstyle has been changed again, but this is how brides style their hair."
After saying that, I thought to myself: Not to mention that the lady is not used to it, she herself is not used to it yet, and she never remembers to change her name to "Madam".
Sheng Luoan said "Oh".
Forget it, we’re not on the same channel, so I’m too lazy to talk about it anymore.
The beaded silk on the other side has already made the bed.
She held in her arms the wedding dress she had changed into yesterday, and left in a hurry without saying hello to Su Ying.
Su Ying said to herself: "That Zhuhua is really impatient. He gave me some clothes and made him very anxious."
Sheng Luoan looked at Zhuhua's back as he disappeared through the door, and his eyes slowly narrowed.
At this time, Butler Hu, who was beside Mr. Gong, asked someone to come in and send a message, saying that Mr. Gong would be waiting in the front hall in half an hour, so that Sheng Luoan could finish his breakfast quickly and go there.
"Dog...oh, where is Mr. Hou? Why don't you come with Mr. Hou?" Sheng Luoan casually asked the maid who was delivering the message, and almost blurted out "Master Dog".
The maid replied: "Madam, the Marquis has already returned to the front yard to rest after talking about serving tea to the bride."
Sheng Luo'an almost slammed the table and stood up: This man didn't take her seriously, did he? He actually let her go alone to complete the tea ceremony for Lao Shizi's new wife.
On the other hand, in Lehuai Juli where Yun Qinghe lived, the maids were busy early in the morning.
Thinking that today was the day for the bride to serve tea, Yun Qinghe got up early in the morning.
Instead of going to the yard to do a round of sword dancing as usual, she sat down in front of the dressing table early and let Xiang's mother dress her up.
Yun Qinghe looked at Xiang's mother's dexterous fingers running through her hair, and said, "I'll tell the kitchen later to prepare some nourishing medicinal food for Luo An. This child was very tired last night."
Xiang's mother smiled warmly and said, "That's right. The noise made the maid standing guard outside blush with embarrassment."
After a pause, she asked again: "Old madam, would you like to use that set of sapphire and red gold hair and face today?"
"Then use it!"
She is also a mother-in-law for the first time, and since she only has a son, she should be more formal.
The Prime Minister's mother was convinced, and quickly put a set of sapphire-encrusted headbands on Yun Qinghe's temples.
The two of them nodded again at the interview, and then they saw a little maid walking in, whispering a few words to the mother-in-law's ear.
Then, Xiang's mother said to Yun Qinghe with a complex expression: "Old madam, the new madam has a maid who has sent a handkerchief to her. She is outside the door. Do you want to check her now?"
Yun Qinghe didn't notice the expression on Xiang's mother's hesitant expression at all, and casually replied: "Let's test it!"
A moment later, Zhuhua kneeled in front of Yun Qinghe, holding a wooden tray in his hand.
On the plate, there was a pure white veil lying on it.
Zhuhua said in a low voice: "Old Madam, originally, my wife asked the slave to secretly handle this handkerchief before sending it over. But the slave... didn't dare to deceive the old madam and the Marquis, so she took it over directly."
Yun Qinghe stared at the shining white handkerchief, his face slowly darkened.
Of course she knew the purpose of this veil.
She also knew that last night's wedding night was the first time they had sex in bed.
Moreover, the noise was so loud that everyone in the house might have heard it.
But in the end, what I handed over was a scarf that had no red stains.
She suddenly remembered the day she went to the Sheng Mansion to hire a man, and the man who jumped out and kept saying that she and Sheng Luoan had been engaged for life.
Could it be that what the man said is true?
Yun Qinghe stood up with a bang and walked out.
Xiang's mother quickly asked: "Old madam, where are you going? It's almost time for the new daughter-in-law to invite tea."
Yun Qinghe stopped, calmed down, stared at the pearl flowers on the ground with sharp eyes, gritted his teeth and asked: "Are you sure this is the handkerchief used by the Marquis and your wife last night?"
Zhuhua replied calmly: "I dare not deceive the old lady. Today, the bed that I made myself collapsed. This veil was pulled out from under the quilt."
Yun Qinghe's last glimmer of hope was shattered. She waved her hand towards Zhuhua in disappointment, motioning for her to go out first.
"Mother Xiang, what do you think of this matter?"
Yun Qinghe returned to the dining table and sat down, and asked unhappily to Xiang's mother who was helping her serve porridge.
Mother Xiang still had a warm look on her face and said softly: "Madam, what you see may not be true. I think this matter, why don't you let it go first?"
"The old lady needs to eat quickly now. Today is the first time that the new daughter-in-law serves tea to her mother-in-law. If you arrive late, you will be easily criticized. You might be said to be embarrassing the new daughter-in-law.
"
After a few words from Mother Xiang, Yun Qinghe immediately felt better.
She naturally knew who the gossip mother was talking about, and it wasn't just the second wife and her son.
She glanced at Xiang's mother gratefully, then quickly lowered her head and started drinking porridge.
I wanted to rush to the front hall before the second room, but it was still a step too late.
When she entered, she saw the old man already sitting in the main seat.
On the right side, the father and son from the second room were already sitting neatly on the lower right side.
