Although the newly bought house has two households and one household together with this side, Mrs. Li likes to call that side the West Courtyard, so it is easy to distinguish.
After the guests were all sent off, the three aunts of the Bai family and the Li family quickly cleaned up the yard, and distributed the leftovers to some people to take away.
The tables, chairs, stools, bowls, chopsticks, dishes, etc. will be returned tomorrow.
Mrs. Sun had been tired for a whole day, so she rested now and leaned on the pillow on the kang to rest her mind.
The old lady hadn't eaten big meat for a long time, and she had a wedding today, so she craved a few more mouthfuls, and her stomach was unavoidably bloated.
Mrs. Bai made her a cup of strong tea and brought it over, Mrs. Sun drank a few sips of it, relieved a lot of greasy.
After a while, Mrs. Sun asked as if remembering, "How is the West Court?"
The eldest aunt was about to speak, but she might as well have been robbed by the third aunt.
I only heard a sharp and hearty voice replying: "Okay, I just brought some food over, and the maid beside the lady thanked me for coming, she looks sensible and talkative!"
The aunt secretly rolled her eyes, then turned her head to look at Mrs. Sun, curled her lips, and said in a somewhat eccentric tone: "I can see, the young lady who came out of the Hou's mansion is very impressive! I can count them all." Counting, there are a dozen or so servants who followed her to marry, more than our master, and all of them are serving her alone."
This is blatant provocation.
After hearing this, I really saw that the faces of Mrs. Li and Mrs. Bai were not so good-looking.
The third aunt's wife was not afraid of her eldest sister, so she stabbed back: "There are so many people around her, so what's the matter, and the eldest sister is not allowed to take care of her. The eldest sister only sees that there are many servants, but she doesn't see the dowry that is full of yards. Miss is not short of that money, we have to go to Baba to say that she shouldn't, so she looks shallow-skinned, so it's not a joke!"
The eldest aunt asked the third aunt to ridicule her shallow eyelids, so angry that she almost jumped up and cursed.
After listening to it for a few times, Shi Shiran came out and interrupted them, and said with a smile: "Miss and girl, once you marry into our family, you are a family, and they are your nephew and daughter-in-law. Just call her by her name." She still had a gentle and virtuous appearance.
As soon as the conversation was over, the two aunts and wives couldn't keep arguing.
But Mrs. Sun was thinking, wondering what kind of temperament that Miss Hou Fu has, whether she will be disciplined in the future, and it will be bad if she rides on Ze'er's head by relying on her status in the future.
It seems that Ming'er has to take a good look at her, and she has to be suppressed, so don't tell her to be arrogant based on her family background.
Tomorrow the newcomer wants to meet the elders to offer tea, so Sun didn't keep the three daughters at home, and waved Li Baode to send the three younger sisters out.
The aunts and wives all live not far away, and it takes only half an hour to get home by taking a car, which is very convenient.
Mrs. Bai packed some clean and untouched meat and vegetables for the three of them and told them to take them with them.
There were already people, Mrs. Bai took care of Mrs. Sun to wash and wash, and only returned to the room after the old lady rested.
After turning off the lights, Li Baode who was lying next to him started snoring loudly in less than a quarter of an hour, but Bai Shi couldn't fall asleep anyway, tossing and turning on the bed.
I always think of Miss Hou Men who just entered the west courtyard.
After so many days, although Bai has been hearing the word "Hou Men" in his ears and mouth, he knows that it is a noble family and unattainable, but he has no specific concept of what is unattainable and what is Jingui.
If there hadn't been an accident, people like them might never have seen such a family in their lifetime.
There is a saying that can be said to death, knowing it in your heart is one thing, but seeing it with your own eyes is another.
This is very true.
Tied with a red silk rope, when the dowry was lifted like flowing water, when it was opened for everyone to see, Bai's eyeballs could not move, they could not be moved, they just opened wide.
She had never seen so many babes.
Jade vases, all kinds of decorations, all kinds of jewelry, red emerald green agate white pearls... those things, the shining light makes people's eyes hurt.
There are also full boxes of silk and satin brocade clothes.
Looking at the person sitting on the bed, he was wearing a luxurious and eye-catching wedding dress, which was also a material that Bai had never seen before, and he could only speak one good word.
Good things, even those who don't know the goods can know it.
When the hijab was lifted, it was the first time Bai saw Gu Qingci's face.
At that time, Bai Shi felt a little breathless.
How can I describe that feeling? Mrs. Bai has lived in the west of the city for decades, and she has seen too many girls in the market, most of them are ordinary, and some are pretty. It is fresh and tender. However, no matter how outstanding those women are, now it seems that even if there are thousands of them added up, they may not even be able to compare to the one in front of them.
With just one glance, Bai Shipin finally realized the gap between nobles of the Hou family and ordinary people.
Sitting there, his face was cold, and he was full of arrogance and arrogance.
That is a delicate person that can only be raised in a rich nest of gold and silver.
A bright face, even if it is not fully opened, can predict the stunning beauty of the future.
Bai Shi was startled.
The Bai family is not vain, she is also proud of her son's attachment to a noble Yue family, because it will bring countless benefits to the family.
But now she is a little worried, that Miss Gu doesn't seem to be a good-natured person, if she can't control her, let alone take advantage of her, she will get rid of her.
Bai herself is a daughter-in-law and came here to serve her mother-in-law, so she naturally thinks that Gu Qingci should also serve her submissively, and she should be obedient and be taught by her.
When Li Chengze hadn't married, Bai thought so. Even after she learned that Hou Menqian was going to marry, she never changed her mind and didn't feel that she was wrong.
She has even thought about it many times, and she thinks that a young lady who comes from a big family should know more about the rules. There must be a set of rules in the Hou's mansion. When does the daughter-in-law get up to greet her mother-in-law? , serving tea and water, and serving meals
I heard that the daughter-in-law of a rich family has to set rules every day. She must write down these rules and make a charter. In the future, the daughter-in-law will follow that and abide by the rules. This is the duty of a daughter-in-law.
And the dowry should naturally be managed by her, and she will set up an account in the future, so that when she takes money and items, she can have a count, and she is also in charge of Gu Qingci not to use the money recklessly.
You need to know that when you are married, not only you, but everything about you belongs to your husband's family.
At this time, Mrs. Bai has forgotten that she never took out the dowry when she got married, and it was all tightly covered by herself and used up slowly.
Ever since Li Chengze passed the examination as a scholar, the Bai family actually began to undergo some changes.
When she spoke, she deliberately added a touch of generosity and virtuousness, and she no longer always went out to buy things. Mrs. Sun couldn't sit still. Mrs. Bai made a fool of herself by doing more of the housework and praising her grandson. Shi is even better at communicating with people and talking, and Sun Shi squinted her eyes to be praised, so she will go shopping for vegetables in the future, chatting with those old sisters by the way.
Bai firmly believes that his son will definitely make further progress in the future and become a high-ranking official.
At that time, I will be the wife of an official family, and I have to learn the rules of the official family one by one, so that I will not lose my son's face when I go out to meet people.
Therefore, the Bai family is in favor of being able to marry a noble lady. One of the biggest reasons is that a lady from the Hou family has her own rules and regulations, which are exactly what her family needs, and she also has two daughters. You should also start learning the rules.
Thinking about many things in her mind, she stayed up until midnight before falling asleep in a daze.
…
As for the west courtyard, in the eyes of others, it should be a beautiful moment of the wedding night in the bridal chamber, but at this time it is not peaceful.
No one knew that the bridegroom official Xinzi had already changed.
Li Cheng is a university professor. Because of this status, he is always used to maintaining that energy in front of people.
Li Cheng once ridiculed himself, his face was too sanctimonious.
It was a very serious and self-restraining appearance, as if there was deep knowledge in the stomach, very scholarly and elegant.
This is probably attributable to Li Chengze's good face, a little abstinence, aloofness, and the fact that he is full of knowledge when he speaks.
When he was wearing a rigid suit and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses hanging on the bridge of his nose, it was enough to make some women dizzy.
When he was older, at the age of forty, he had added a bit of maturity and elegance brought by the years, which made many women flock to him.
There are many female college students who love and confess to Professor Li.
Fortunately, Li Chengze's basic moral cultivation and professional ethics are all there, and it is impossible to do things that cross the line.
However, when he frowns and rejects women with a serious expression, it makes him more popular.
Whenever this happened, Li Chengze felt bored in his heart, and he knew that those young and impulsive students were just confused by the secondary face he deliberately created.
Before crossing, Li Cheng and a friend went to drink in a bar privately opened by another friend. Because he didn’t worry about being seen by the students during the holidays, he drank a few more drinks.
After being sent home, Li Cheng was dizzy, took off his clothes, and was about to go to the bathroom to take a shower.
I just remember being a little dizzy at the time, and I didn't pay attention to anything else. For some reason, a sudden electric current passed through my body, and then I fainted.
When Li Chengze woke up again, everything changed.
A memory of another person appeared in my mind out of thin air, a strange scene in a strange place.
At this point, he realized that the matter was serious.
He might have been electrocuted to death, but he didn't know what happened, and he got a great fortune. His soul traveled to a time and space, and woke up on the body of a man who had just died.
He took his life for nothing, but the man with the same name and surname died in his wedding night.
—
The old doctor cleaned up Li Chengze's wound, applied wound medicine and bandaged it up.
While telling the wound not to get wet until the wound heals, apply ointment for external use twice a day, and take a bowl of decoction for internal use every day.
Xiaoman took the prescription and followed others to grab the medicine. Nanny Li also came over. Seeing Li Chengze's dark eyes and silent expression, she felt a little uneasy.
But for the sake of his own girl, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and ask Li Chengze to return to the main room, and said a lot of good things for Gu Qingci, saying that the girl was young and ignorant, and she hurt him because of a moment of panic in her heart, Lord Wanwang Regardless of villains, forgive the girl this time.
Li Cheng withdrew his thoughts, raised his head, his phoenix eyes were raised slightly, but there was a coldness in them.
He glanced at Nanny Zhang, didn't speak, then turned his eyes to the back, and said to the girl: "Go get a bucket of water."
Gu Yu didn't dare to disobey, and quickly ran out when she got the words.
Nanny Zhang was embarrassed for a while, but she didn't stay any longer, and withdrew after pleading guilty.
Li Cheng changed into a crimson wedding gown, stepped into the barrel and took a bath.
After changing into a clean underwear, I returned to the east chamber.
He stared at his long black hair, frowning, for a while.
Immediately, he raised his hand and rubbed his temples, sighing low.
