While Tang Cheng was daydreaming, Wen Huaian opened his eyes at some point.
"woke up?"
Wen Huaian, who had just woken up, had a slightly hoarse voice and hot air sprayed on his ears. Tang Cheng was startled and pushed him away reflexively.
With a thud, the defenseless Wen Huaian was pushed off the bed by Tang Cheng.
Wen Huaian: “…”
Tang Cheng sat up, pulled the quilt in front of him, his eyes wandering, and apologized awkwardly: "Um, ahem, I couldn't control my strength for a moment, Wen Huaian, are you okay?"
What could Wen Huaian say? He calmly got up from the ground.
"It's okay, I'm thick-skinned."
Tang Cheng was no longer embarrassed when she heard this. She patted her chest and said, "I almost forgot that you have a thick skin. It's okay if you fall."
Wen Huaian's mouth twitched.
This happened to him so early in the morning, and all his romantic thoughts were gone.
"Oh no! Last night was our wedding night, but I actually fell asleep." Tang Cheng felt embarrassed after seeing the dragon and phoenix wedding candles that were almost burned out.
"Wen Huaian, I'm sorry for putting you through this."
"But I'm pregnant, you can't do anything, and this wedding night is meaningless."
Wen Huaian watched in silence as Tang Cheng went from being embarrassed to feeling righteous.
"You have a point. I'll make it up to you later."
Tang Cheng was confused: "..."
Time cannot be reversed, can the wedding night be made up
The four maids had been waiting outside the door for a long time. They heard all the noise in the bridal chamber, but the two masters inside did not make a sound. They did not dare to go in and could only knock on the door.
Tang Cheng heard the knock on the door and answered naturally.
"Come in."
Four maids came in one after another carrying copper basins.
Tang Cheng got out of bed, and Zhenzhu and Shanhu helped him change his clothes.
The other two maids tidied up the slightly messy bed. Everyone knew about Tang Cheng's situation, and no maid came to collect the Yuanpa.
Wen Huaian had a personal servant serving him. He said something to Tang Cheng and went to the next room to change his clothes.
Everything is ready and day has come.
The breakfast was delivered by Tang Ping and was rich and delicious.
Tang Cheng drank the red rice porridge without any taste, but what he was thinking about was the roast suckling pig he had eaten last night. The taste was so unforgettable.
"I want roast suckling pig for lunch."
As soon as he finished breakfast, Tang Cheng couldn't wait to start ordering lunch.
Wen Huaian: “…”
Tang Ping's face shuddered when he thought of the Young Madam's feat of eating a roasted suckling pig at her wedding yesterday. Is the Young Madam addicted to it
"Madam, the roast suckling pig takes time to prepare. I'm afraid we won't be able to eat it today."
"Then let's do it tomorrow. I want to eat roast suckling pig tomorrow." Tang Cheng still did not give up after being disappointed.
Who makes roast suckling pig so delicious!
Tang Ping glanced at the calm prince and nodded in agreement.
Tang Cheng was happy.
"It's getting late, Wen Huaian, let's go and have some tea, there are gifts for you to receive."
Wen Huaian laughed.
"Okay, let's go."
He obviously has no shortage of money, but he likes money and acts like a money-grubber.
Tang Ping's face was filled with black lines.
The four main maids covered their faces. Such a serious matter as the bride serving tea was a good opportunity to receive a gift in the eyes of the young lady.
You know, it is easy for a bride to be troubled and intimidated by her mother-in-law when she serves tea.
But considering the lady's personality, the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo wants to make things difficult for the lady...
The four maids could only pray that the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo would not be angry.
Next, Tang Cheng and Wen Huaian happily went to the main courtyard to serve tea. Along the way, Tang Cheng walked leisurely, talking and laughing with Wen Huaian who was holding her hand. They looked like newlyweds, very much in love.
The four maids followed closely behind.
"Wen Huaian, how much red envelope do you think my father-in-law will give me?"
Tang Cheng asked excitedly as he walked.
Wen Huaian raised his lips slightly: "It shouldn't be less."
Tang Cheng shook Wen Huaian's hand, with a happy and dreamy look on his face.
"My father-in-law is very satisfied with me as his daughter-in-law, so he must have one thousand taels."
"Mother-in-law, it doesn't matter if you don't want to talk about it. It would be nice if you can give me a gift. I won't force you to do anything."
Wen Huaian: “…”
The four maids: "..."
The maids and servants in the mansion saw this scene from afar and couldn't help but sigh that the Prince and the Young Lady had a very good relationship.
When they arrived at the main courtyard, the maids and servants bowed and said words of congratulations.
Tang Cheng excitedly pulled Wen Huaian into the main hall. As soon as they entered, they saw two familiar elders, the Duke of Zhenguo and his wife, who were already waiting for them.
"Father-in-law, mother-in-law, we are here!"
Tang Cheng shouted happily to the two people in the hall.
As for the others, Tang Cheng simply ignored them.
It doesn't matter anyway.
The Duke of Zhenguo saw Tang Si, a pregnant woman, excitedly bringing her son in and greeting him happily, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo was stunned at first, then she glared at Tang Cheng fiercely, her eyes full of discontent.
What a disgrace!
The four concubines glanced at the unpleasant expression on the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo and secretly gloated over her misfortune.
All the maids and servants in the room were stunned.
Wen Huaian held his forehead.
Tang Cheng has not yet realized that her behavior is very abrupt. In her eyes, everyone is a family, and as a family, there is of course no need to be so polite.
"Didn't you say you wanted to serve tea?"
"Where is the maid preparing tea? Bring it over quickly!"
Tang Cheng glanced at the maids and servants around him, and his eyes fell on a pretty maid holding a tea tray.
Wen Huaian was speechless when he saw Tang Cheng who was so impatient.
She, a new daughter-in-law, actually finished what her elders said.
The corners of Zhenguogong's mouth twitched.
The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo's face turned dark. She covered her chest and said to herself, "I can't be angry, I can't be angry."
The other people in the room were stunned and looked at Tang Cheng in shock.
The Duke of Zhenguo coughed lightly.
"Serve tea!"
The old woman quickly took the futon and placed it underneath, and the tea maid brought the tea tray over.
Tang Cheng looked at the six cups of tea on the tea tray and spoke with a confused look on his face.
"Why six cups of tea?"
"Do the parents-in-law have to drink three cups each?"
"This tea-serving rule is really inhumane."
As soon as these words came out, the Duke of Zhenguo's face darkened, and the smile on Wen Huaian's handsome face disappeared instantly.
The four concubines present lowered their heads, and a trace of uneasiness flashed across Concubine Chen's eyes.
The two of them looked at the maid holding the tea tray, and the Duke of Zhenguo asked coldly.
"What on earth is going on?"
Lady Min, the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo, had long discovered the secret of the tea-serving maid and kept silent on purpose, just to see if Tang Si would be embarrassed. She did not expect Tang Si to ask questions on the spot.
She looked at the four concubines coldly and sneered in her heart. These four concubines thought that she had been sent to the nunnery and lost her favor, so they dared to make small moves. Even if Tang Si didn't find out the trick of serving tea, when Tang Si found out later...
He is so brave to plot against Tang Si.
The maid who served the tea had a pale face. She knelt down with the tea tray in her hands and said in a trembling voice, "It was my fault for not thinking carefully. Seeing that the four concubines were also here, I prepared four more cups of tea. I beg the Duke to forgive me this time."
Tang Cheng looked at Wen Huaian and asked in surprise: "Can your father-in-law's concubine drink my tea?"
"I am the wife of the Crown Prince, why do I have to serve tea to a concubine?"
The four aunts looked unhappy.
Wen Huaian's expression remained unchanged, but his eyes turned cold when he looked at the four concubines.
"No, you just need to serve tea to your parents."
Tang Cheng patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
"I thought the maid's teaching was wrong, but it turns out that's not the case. This maid is so bold that she actually asked me to serve tea to my father-in-law's aunt."
The maid who served tea was trembling, sweating profusely, and kept apologizing.
"It's all my fault. I won't do it again."
The corners of Zhenguogong's mouth twitched.
"Okay, let's put this aside for now. Tang Si, serve tea. Two cups of tea."
Now is not the time to pursue the matter. It is just that one of the four concubines bribed the tea-serving maid. We will deal with this matter later.
The Duke of Zhenguo spoke directly about the two cups of tea, and his meaning was self-evident. The aunt could not be considered Tang Cheng's elder, and from now on Tang Cheng's status would be above the aunt's. The aunt should not try to act like an elder in front of Tang Cheng.
Of course, even if they want to show off, they have to get Tang Cheng's cooperation.
The four aunts' hearts sank.
The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo sneered in her heart.
The Duke's words are his final words, but some people insist on committing suicide on the day of tea service. It's really unreasonable.
When Tang Cheng heard the eunuch say "serve tea", he immediately took a cup of tea from the tea maid and handed it to the Duke of Zhenguo, smiling broadly.
"Father-in-law, please have some tea!"
Tang Cheng ignored the cushion on the ground.
Wen Huaian: “…”
The maids and servants in the room widened their eyes. This... this young lady didn't even kneel down to serve tea!
Lady Min, wife of the Duke of Zhenguo, looked a little gloomy.
The four aunts looked shocked.
They couldn't help but look at the Duke of Zhenguo's reaction.
The Duke of Zhenguo didn't care. He took the tea from Tang Cheng with a smile, drank it, and gave her a big red envelope.
Tang Cheng happily took the red envelope and touched it. Hmm, it was a bit thick. There should be one thousand taels of silver in it. This gift was really to her liking. The smile on Tang Cheng's face became even brighter.
"Thank you, father-in-law!"
The Duke of Zhenguo felt both angry and amused when he saw Tang Cheng's little actions.
This Tang Si!
Wen Huaian's lips curled slightly.
Next, serve tea to the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo.
Generally speaking, a father-in-law will not deliberately make things difficult for his daughter-in-law even if he is not happy with her, but a mother-in-law will always make things difficult for her when she is offering tea.
For example, when the daughter-in-law kneels to offer tea, the father deliberately ignores her and asks her to kneel for a while longer while holding the teacup. Even if she takes the tea, she won't drink it, and talks about a lot of irrelevant things, asking her to kneel for a longer time.
The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo had originally planned to do so, but since Tang Cheng refused to kneel, she had no choice.
However, we must make things difficult when necessary.
This Tang Si is really unruly and outrageous.
So when Tang Cheng handed tea to the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo, she did not take it.
"Tang Si, you are now married to the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion. In addition to serving your husband well and expanding the Wen family as soon as possible, you must also abide by the rules of the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion. For example, you don't even know the rules of serving tea. If this gets out, people will laugh at you."
The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo stopped here and looked at Tang Cheng with a serious gaze.
The room was silent.
Tang Cheng blinked and said, "Mother-in-law, the emperor has granted me the privilege of not having to kneel. Could it be that the rules of serving tea are more important than the emperor's will
