The rain came and went, crackling and not stopping until dawn.
Qing Yuan has packed up and dressed up, ready to serve in the new house.
The little maid serving her pushed open the window, looked at the still damp ground and the fish-belly sky and said with a smile: "The third master chose a very good wedding date. The sun was shining brightly a few days ago. Wait until the bride After the wife came in, the guests dispersed, and then it started to rain. But who knew that it only rained for one night, and when it was dawn, and the bride was about to recognize her relatives, the rain stopped. The masters of Zhaoming Temple are really amazing! "
This is a good sign.
Qing Yuan also felt that Yu Tang's luck was very good.
She laughed and said, "This day is not calculated by Zhaoming Temple, but by the imperial calendar followed by the third master, and I set it myself."
It can be seen that the third master is more powerful.
She also told the little maids around her: "In the future, you can't be 'bridal wife' or 'bridal wife', you should be called the third wife."'
All the maids should agree.
Qingyan came over with two servant girls.
Qing Yuan looked at the sky and felt that Pei Yan and Yu Tang should not have gotten up so early, so he invited Qing Yan to sit in the room and asked her why she came so early.
Qingyan is two years older than Qingyuan, so she can be released logically. But she didn't want to go out of the house, so she begged Mrs. Pei, and when Yu Tang came in, she would comb herself. If Yu Tang uses her, she will follow Yu Tang, if Yu Tang has no intention of promoting her, she will go to serve by Mrs. Pei's side.
She smiled and said, "It's not that I'm afraid you won't be too busy here. I'll come over earlier to see if there's anything I can do to help you."
Qing Yuan poured her a cup of tea and said with a smile: "I don't know how the third wife arranged it, I have to wait for the main room to speak."
Qingyan was not in a hurry, and asked Qing Yuan for news: "I heard that the third wife only brought two maids here, one named Xing'er and the other named Lan'er. They did not bring a dowry. You have beaten both of these maids. Do you have a relationship? Do you know what kind of temper it is?"
Pei Yan and Pei Lao'an were trying to save face for Yu Tang, and the dowry list stated that there would be four maidservants as dowry, and two dowry maids. But those around them knew that the only ones brought over from the Yu family were Xing'er and Lan'er.
Qing Yuan had received a lot of care from Qing Yan when she entered the mansion, and she also intended to help Qing Yan, hearing the words: "I used to have some friendship with Shuang Tao who is next to the third wife, but she got married in September, this time It's also the first time I've dealt with the two little girls who came over, so I don't know what kind of temperament they are. However, the third wife is very kind, so she must not be that tricky person."
Qingyan is not afraid of being tricked by someone who can be the big maid who is in charge of the Pei family, but she is afraid that she will not gain Yu Tang's trust.
The two also talked about meeting Yu Tang's companion.
Yu Tang's other two "dowry" maids were chosen by Pei Yan himself, and they have never met them before, so they don't know which farm they chose from Pei's family, or bought them from outside.
Both Qing Yuan and Qing Yan were a little worried.
Qingyan had no choice but to comfort Qing Yuan: "Lei Zhi and Liu Xu are both serving by the third wife's side, and the two dowries also know each other. If this is the case, people around the third wife will get rid of us, and we will be ashamed to stay in Pei's house."
Qing Yuan thinks so too.
She smiled and nodded, seeing that it was getting late, she called a little maid to accompany Qingyan, and led Liuxu and Lizhi to Pei Yan and Yu Tang's new house.
He never thought that Pei Yan had already woken up, and was already tidying up and washing. He was currently pruning the pot of orchids in Yu Tang's study with a pair of gilded scissors.
Qing Yuan hurriedly stepped forward to salute Pei Yan, and gave Pei Yan a quick glance from the corner of his eye.
Pei Yan wore a silver-red hang silk dress with a plain face and a straight face, with smiles on the corners of his eyes and brows, which further reflected his elegant demeanor, which made Qing Yuan, who forced himself to regard Pei Yan's beauty as nothing, couldn't help it My heart pounded wildly twice, and then I opened my mouth and said, "Third Master, should we put the hot water for Third Wife's washing here first or pour it into the basin?"
With such a simple question, Pei Yan actually hesitated for a while, looked at the chiming clock in the hall, and then said: "You guys wait a while, I will go and wake up the third wife."
Naturally, Qing Yuan and the others did not dare to look around.
Everyone held their breath in silence, and could faintly hear movement in the inner room.
Yu Tang murmured lazily, Pei Yan whispered patiently and gently, and after a while, there was the rustling of clothes being put on.
It can be guessed that they should be dressing themselves.
Qing Yuan's confidant's little maid couldn't help but whispered to Qing Yuan: "Did the third wife's servant not be on duty last night?"
Qing Yuan was afraid that Pei Yan would hear it, so he gave the little girl a bitter look, then turned around and whispered to Qing Lian: "You guys will go in and comb the third wife's hair later, don't look around."
Qinglian and Qingrong both pursed their lips and smiled, with blushing faces, they kept nodding.
After a while, the movement in the inner room stopped.
They heard Pei Yan shout "come in".
Qing Yuan lowered his hands and lowered his eyes, leading the maids to file into the inner room.
I don’t know when the window lattices were opened in the inner room, and the cold wind of October passed through the window. Fortunately, a ground cage has been burned in the house. Not only does it not feel cold, but also because the cold air makes people feel refreshed. .
Qing Yuan looked up again, and saw that Yu Tang, like Pei Yan, was also wearing silver-red hang silk plain clothes. Although men and women were different and styles were different, it could be seen that they were made of the same material.
She was already sitting in front of the dressing mirror, her hair was tied up in a hastily bun, tied with a gold hairpin with a drop of oil, the bed had been made very clean, and the Longfengxi quilt had been folded and placed neatly on the bed.
Seeing Qing Yuan, she smiled at Qing Yuan.
Those little maids only felt that Yu Tang's smiling face was like a flower, and she was so surprised that she was so beautiful, and called "beautiful" in their hearts, only Qing Yuan, who had more contact with her, could see it, and she smiled quite shyly.
Brides should be like this, right
Qing Yuan also smiled at Yu Tang, and began to instruct the little maids to wash Yu Tang's face, comb his hair and make up, and tidy up the room.
Yu Tang was naturally very cooperative, and even listened to Qinglian's advice on what kind of jewelry to wear, and chose a full set of silk and golden phoenix. But the little maids who cleaned up the room felt a little uncomfortable.
Pei Yan sat on the bed all the time, watching Qinglian and the others comb Yu Tang's hair.
Should the bed be cleaned up or not
The two little maids asked Qing Yuan for help with their eyes.
With Qing Yuan's experience in serving Pei Yan, of course he can't disturb Pei Yan at this time.
She shook her head gently towards the two little maids, and when Yu Tang finished dressing up, Liu Xu and Li Zhi came in with breakfast.
Eating without speaking, sleeping without speaking.
Although Yu Tang and Pei Yan didn't speak, Pei Yan took care of Yu Tang from the beginning to the end. For a while, he asked Qing Yuan to serve Yu Tang a bowl of black chicken soup, and for a while, he put a snowflake cake on Yu Tang's plate, and it was almost finished , he also said to Yu Tang for the first time, "Eat more".
Is this something you did wrong
Yu Tang was too ashamed to raise his head, but he could not stop complaining in his heart.
She was so strong last night, and now she bows to her, she won't forgive him easily!
Thinking so, seeing Pei Yan treat her like this, she couldn't help but feel soft and sweet in her heart, and felt that what happened last night seemed not so difficult to accept, and, consciously or not, she wanted to lean close to Pei Yan, It seemed that as long as I was next to him, I felt very happy in my heart.
Why is she so useless
Yu Tang was a little depressed, and took the chopsticks to smash the pastries in the bowl.
After finally finishing the meal, Yu Tang followed Pei Yan out of the new house with catkins and tired branches.
It seems that Pei Yan is going to worship the ancestors and recognize relatives first.
Qing Yuan hastily explained to a few little maids who stayed in the room to tidy up, and followed them.
The Pei family's ancestral hall is at the foot of Tianmu Mountain, but there is also a smaller ancestral hall in the Pei family's ancestral home. Usually, it is here for offering incense and so on. During Qingming and other festivals, people go to the ancestral hall at the foot of Tianmu Mountain.
Yu Tang will not be able to officially enter the ancestral tree until three months after getting married. At that time, he needs to go to the ancestral hall of Tianmu Mountain. Today's ancestor worship will be held in the small ancestral hall of Pei Mansion.
She followed Pei Yan and walked slowly towards the small ancestral hall. Along the way, the trees were shady and the scenery was picturesque. What she saw was different and similar everywhere.
Yu Tang couldn't help feeling grateful to Pei Yan.
If he hadn't let her get acquainted with Pei's family in advance, she would definitely be at a loss when she married like this, and she would get lost wherever she went.
Pei Yan was a little worried about her body, turned around and asked her in a low voice: "Are you okay?"
Yu Tang's face was hot immediately, and he hurriedly said: "I, I'm fine. You lead the way ahead, don't let the elders wait."
Pei Yan smiled, but stopped suddenly.
Yu Tang was caught off guard and almost bumped into him.
She glared at Pei Yan angrily.
Pei Yan had a smile in his eyes, and looked at her indulgently.
It reminded her of how he had kissed her for the first time last night.
She still didn't know anything stupidly, stared at his handsome face obsessively, let him succeed in this way, not to mention, she took the initiative to move over...
Yu Tang's face became hotter.
She whispered sternly, "You, what are you doing?"
He doesn't want to do anything.
He just wanted to touch her.
Thinking about it, Pei Yan stretched out her hand to touch Yu Tang's white and smooth face like a freshly peeled egg.
Out of the corner of Yu Tang's eyes, the dumbfounded faces of the servant girls were all in sight.
She was extremely shy, and knocked off Pei Yan's hand without thinking too much.
Pei Yan was taken aback.
Yu Tang was also taken aback.
Of course she knew what happened last night is what every couple should do. Before leaving the court, her mother was afraid that she would not understand, so she made a special trip to ask Mrs. Wu to tell her for a long time. It's not that she doesn't like Pei Yan treating her like this... But knowing it was one thing, but experiencing it was another, she couldn't help feeling a little flustered, that's why... she didn't mean it.
Yu Tang lowered his head and lowered his eyes.
Looking from Pei Yan's angle, one would see her crow-blue eyelashes drooping limply as if drenched by rain, and she was a bit embarrassed, which made him feel a little pity for no reason, and then found it funny.
This little girl stretched out her paws as soon as she married him, and would scratch him if she didn't like it.
But such a vigorous Yu Tang made him even more rare.
He simply put his arms around her and whispered in her ear: "Okay! I'm so courageous that I dare to hit me. Let's see how I deal with you when I go back to the room!"
The scene when Pei Yan said this last time appeared in Yu Tang's mind.
Her legs gave way, and if Pei Yan hadn't held her in his arms, she felt that she would stagger.
"You, you, don't think about it!" Yu Tang said, pushed Pei Yan away and ran away.
Pei Yan laughed loudly from behind her.
The laughter was not only loud, but also very carefree.
