Chapter 111: Chao Li was so angry that his liver ached
Chaoli naturally understood Princess Desao's displeasure, but she had long been accustomed to it. Anyway, her nominal mother-in-law was so virtuous.
If he really spoke softly to her, Chaoli would still feel uncomfortable.
It's not that she likes to be abused, it's just that the Princess of Dessau can't look gentle and can't even pretend to be so.
"Mom is joking, aren't you in poor health and need a good rest? My daughter-in-law understands, so she doesn't dare to bother her at all. I hope my mother won't blame her. You also know that my daughter-in-law is new here and she still doesn't understand many things. My mother every day
The head of the family is busy, so the daughter-in-law must be considerate of her mother's difficulties." Chaoli still smiled gently.
Princess Dessau was hit back by a soft nail, so she had to give up and get down to business, otherwise she would be pissed to death sooner or later by this careless person.
"Hanzhang was injured. Since you knew it, why did you let him rest in the study?"
Chao Li understood clearly, and the hands in his sleeves tightened.
Originally, it was an expedient solution for her and Gu Hanzhang to sleep in separate rooms, but she knew it was not a solution. Not to mention that the people in the house were formidable, and there were elders to deal with.
She had to come after resting in the same room as Gu Hanzhang. She just thought it would be a day later if she could, but she didn't expect Princess Dessau to bring it up today.
"It's my daughter-in-law's fault. I'm sorry that I'm not used to it when I first arrived in the palace. In addition, the Ministry of Justice is busy with political affairs, so I rested in the study. My son-in-law was injured and he was worried that I would be unwell and didn't come back to rest. My daughter-in-law should take the initiative to invite the prince to come back.
"Chaoli bowed his head and admitted his mistake.
Princess Dessau prepared many words to admonish Chaoli, but she accepted them all without any displeasure at all.
Hitting the cotton with a fist, Princess Dessau was also a little depressed.
After thinking about it for a while, thinking of the scene she had just entered, she had other thoughts in her mind.
"Now that Hanzhang is injured, it is inconvenient. The two people I sent here are smart and capable and can help you. But when I just came here, I saw them sweeping the yard. This is how you arranged for me to help you.
Your people? Didn't I say when I sent them that they were here to serve you? How could you ask them to do those menial jobs?" Princess Dessau frowned.
Chaoli's eyes widened, looking puzzled.
"Mother, these things are what the daughter-in-law has to do in the yard. If they don't do it, why can't the daughter-in-law do it herself? Of course, it's not that the daughter-in-law can't do it, or if word spreads about it, I'm afraid it won't sound good, and it will be said that the mother is self-sufficient.
Talking about your daughter-in-law's status and gossiping about her. The daughter-in-law is fine, but you must not let your mother have such a reputation, otherwise it would be unfilial." Chao Li said in a serious tone.
If she hadn't known what Chaoli's temper was like, Princess Desao would have been deceived by her.
However, Princess Desao was still so angry with Chao Li that her liver ached.
"Nonsense! I didn't ask you to clean up. Could it be that you don't have any other maids? Or am I treating you harshly and not assigning a maid to serve you?"
"It's okay, mother, please don't misunderstand me. My daughter-in-law has absolutely no intention of being harsh on me. It's just that I only have Qing Yi by my side, and I'm used to her service, so the maids assigned to me by my mother are all served in the yard.
"But mother, don't worry, the prince has given me a capable maid who can also do martial arts." Chao Lijiao said with a smile.
Princess Desao couldn't tell that Chaoli was doing it on purpose, so she didn't intend to hide it.
"You know clearly that the two people I gave you are not to be used as maids. Don't say that you don't understand my intentions. Chaoli, as Hanzhang's wife, you have the mission of carrying on the family line, and you also have to think about Hou.
The only way to spread the branches and leaves of the prince's mansion is to spread the branches and leaves of the prince's mansion. There is no young master in a high family who has three wives and four concubines, so don't be overbearing and rude."
Of course, Princess Desao would not compare herself with Gu Qinghan. She had a distinguished status, and Gu Qinghan did not indulge in lust, so naturally she did not have a common room or concubine.
In addition, she has a son by her side and a daughter, so she has both children, so Gu Qinghan won't think about that.
But Gu Hanzhang was different. Such a prosperous prince naturally wanted to reproduce many offspring.
Such blood cannot be wasted.
Chaoli smiled softly and said, "Mom sent these two people here. Apart from being maids, what else can they do? Be the bride-in-law or aunt?"
Duke Desao opened his mouth and prepared to answer Chaoli.
Unexpectedly, Chaoli took over the conversation again without giving her a chance to speak.
"My mother must have sent her as a maid. After all, my marriage to the prince was less than three months ago. It was less than a month at that time. Daqi law stipulates that a man must wait three months after getting married to take a concubine.
, before the legitimate wife has no children, the concubines are not allowed to have children, this is also to have the distinction of legitimate concubines. The mother is a royal princess, even if she thinks about it, she cannot ignore the etiquette and give her son away just a few days after they get married.
Right? So, my mother must have seen me working hard and couldn’t bear to take care of the prince, so she asked someone to take care of me, right?"
There was nothing wrong with Chaoli's words. Even if Princess Desao wanted to use her mother-in-law status to force Chaoli to submit, there was nothing she could do.
Because everything she said is right!
It's not that Princess Dessau doesn't know the laws of Daqi, but there are a lot of scandals in the high family. After the bride gets married, it's not a big deal for her mother-in-law to take the decision to send two people there. Everyone understands it tacitly, and it's not uncommon.
As a newlywed wife, she could not go to the government to sue her mother-in-law. This would be extremely unfilial.
Princess Desao originally sent people here because she thought she could suppress Chaoli, but she didn't want Chaoli to ignore her completely and pretend not to know.
Now that she has said it, Princess Dessau cannot deny it. Otherwise, it will be confirmed that she has cheated her daughter-in-law less than three months after her son's wedding. Isn't this an obviously disgusting daughter-in-law?
Princess Desao took a deep breath. She really couldn't get any benefits from Chaoli, especially verbally.
"Okay, you just have to make your own arrangements. Let Hanzhang come back and take good care of Hanzhang. In two days, Yue'er will go to Hanye Temple to offer incense. You go with her. She can't go out alone. You are with her.
Better.”
"Yes, mother." Chaoli smiled slightly.
Princess Dessau curled her lips, but finally left the house without saying anything.
After Princess Desao left, Chaoli thought about Gu Xiyue's visit to Hanye Temple, and something seemed to go wrong.
In her previous life, Gu Xiyue went with Shen Lianyi. The two had a very good relationship. Shen Lianyi didn't need to be introduced to the Hou Mansion because of Gu Xiyue's relationship.
However, this time Princess Desao actually asked her to accompany Gu Xiyue, which was a bit strange.
Could it be that Princess Desao saw something at the palace banquet and didn't want Gu Xiyue and Shen Lianyi to get too close?
Unfortunately, this is just a guess, and Chaoli can't get the answer.
After waiting quietly in the room for a while, Chao Li stood up and went to Gu Hanzhang's study.
