He Sanlang's eyes drooped slightly, looking at her unhappy little face, he pecked her smooth cheek comfortingly, "Seven days, once the seven days pass, you can change the medicinal diet, so you don't have to be so taboo at that time, You can also eat and drink some fruit tea, but you can't be greedy."
After hearing He Changdi's words, Chu Lian could only nod helplessly.
Fortunately, it was only seven days. If it was a month or two, she would have to suffer to death.
Chu Lian pursed her lips, and could only accept this fact.
She broke He Changdi's arms tied around her waist, "Let go, I want to eat."
The corners of He Sanlang's mouth twitched, and he let go of his hands. Chu Lian quickly jumped down and sat aside.
To be honest, the two of them sat so close together, not only Chu Lian blushed, but He Changdi couldn't bear it for long, so it's better to separate.
Chu Lian didn't have much appetite, so she picked up a few bland dishes and ate a few mouthfuls before putting down her chopsticks.
Seeing that she ate less, He Changdi frowned slightly, and put a bowl of chicken soup for her in front of her.
"You eat too little."
Chu Lian couldn't get his way, so he had no choice but to drink slowly with a spoon.
Suddenly she remembered something, and turned to ask He Changdi who was serious about eating.
"He Sanlang, where did you get so much money to buy me jewelry?" Those jewelry cost at least four to five thousand taels of silver, which is not a small sum.
He Changdi paused with his slender fingers holding the jade chopsticks, and the deep phoenix eyes swept over.
Chu Lian twitched the corners of his mouth guiltily, and added "husband", which suppressed He Changdi's dissatisfaction.
After all, the young couple hadn't been together for a long time, and Chu Lian quickly entered the role like an ancient lady, calling congratulations to Mr. Chang Di without any scruples, and she still couldn't adapt for a while.
He Sanlang put down the chopsticks in his hand, stopped eating, looked at Chu Lian seriously, thought for a while and said, "Lian'er, I don't want to lie to you, I can't tell you where the money came from for the time being, but don't worry, it's all The one who is a husband is not obtained through improper means."
Chu Lian did not expect to get this answer.
She was a little surprised, but she didn't force her to ask. She had read the original text, and she still knew the direction of the Great Wu Dynasty in the future.
She doesn't want to take care of those things in the court, and she doesn't have such big ambitions. If you have enough money, you can live comfortably, so why bother so much.
What's more, some things cannot be changed by her own efforts.
Her wish is to be a comfortable rice bug, as long as others don't come to provoke her, then she will live in peace.
At that time, as long as it is ensured that the direction of the He family is not wrong, then the whole He family will have no problems.
"Okay, then I won't ask. It's just that even your money can't be spent like this. If grandma and the others find out, I'm afraid they will think wildly."
That's not it!
Now the Jing'an uncle's mansion doesn't have enough silver to spend, and he even came to her with the cheek to ask for Gui Linju, but He Changdi spent thousands of taels of silver to buy her jewelry. If Mrs. He really knows about it, He must be angry with their third wife.
The He family is not separated, and they still live with their elders, so they always need to keep a low profile in everything they do.
He Sanlang understood his wife's doubts and difficulties. He reached out and stroked Chu Lian's hair, "Don't worry, grandma won't know. Do you need other people's consent if you want to add some jewelry to your daughter-in-law?"
Chu Lian rolled his eyes, he didn't add "a little" jewelry to others, he probably moved the entire counter of Zhenbao Pavilion back.
"Eat more."
He Changdi brought her some more vegetables.
Sitting next to He Changdi, Chu Lian watched him eat seriously, and unconsciously ate more.
She found that He Sanlang would not waste food casually, whether it was a luxurious life or a poor life.
Their husband and wife's dinner table is the usual three dishes and one soup every day, but because the recipe has been improved by Chu Lian, it is many times better than other people's dishes, and the portion is almost just enough for their husband and wife. How much is left.
Two days later, it was Chu Yuan's Jiji ceremony.
Chu Lian had already obtained the post in advance, and since it was her natal family, it was impossible for her not to go.
He Changdi is going to the Yamen of the Ministry of War to hand over matters today, and he won't be free until noon.
When the husband and wife woke up in the morning, Nanny Gui and Xiyan were picking out dresses for Chu Lian to wear.
Chu Lian came out of the clean room, saw that He Changdi was still there, and said strangely: "Didn't you say you are going to the Ministry of War today? Why haven't you left yet?"
He Changdi's deep eyes glanced at Chu Lian who was only wearing a homely skirt, "No hurry, I will send you to the British government first, and then I will go to the Ministry of War."
Chu Lian was slightly surprised, "Will this not delay your official duties?"
While talking to He Changdi, Chu Lian sat in front of the dressing table and asked Lan to comb her hair.
He Changdi was leaning on the rose chair by the window. Today he was wearing a bamboo-blue python robe, covered with a darker cloak, a piece of high-quality black tortoise jade was pressed on the jade belt, and his black hair was tied high with a jade crown. Although the temperament is condensed, but the face is like a crown jade, a gentleman is outstanding.
Sitting there with long hands and long legs is a natural picture scroll that makes people obsessed.
He Changdi has packed up and is sitting aside waiting for his wife. With nothing to do, he took the book that Chu Lian usually used to pass the time on the small table next to him, and casually flipped through it.
Chu Lian's skin is delicate and fair, and she is at the best age, so she doesn't need to deliberately apply makeup or makeup.
After combing her hair into a bun, she chose a green phoenix hairpin and a sapphire hairpin to put on, lightly brushed the eyebrows, and put a little rouge on her lips to complete the makeup.
Although He Changdi seemed to be looking at the notebook in his hand, a quarter of an hour passed without turning a page.
Baicha, who was serving the tea beside him, smiled when he saw the third young master looking in the direction of the third grandma from time to time.
The third grandma is sixteen this year, her facial features are more open than when she first got married last year, and the baby fat on her cheeks has completely faded away. Now she has a beautiful face and a natural beauty. No matter how she looks, even a little girl wants to see her Crazy, not to mention the third young master!
At this time, Nanny Gui took two dresses and came out from behind the screen.
"Third grandma, which one do you think looks better?"
Nanny Gui brought two pieces of clothes, namely the begonia-colored five-panel skirt and the bamboo-green Confucian skirt.
These two sets of clothes were sent by Wei Wangfu, and Chu Lian didn't wear them.
Just as Chu Lian was about to talk about the begonia-colored one, He Changdi pointed to the bamboo-green one and said first, "That's it."
Nanny Gui looked at Chu Lian with some embarrassment, and asked what she meant with her eyes.
Chu Lian nodded.
In fact, these two sets of dresses are both exquisite in workmanship and high-quality fabrics, and there will be no difference between the ones sent by Wei Wangfu.
Although the style is different, it is no different to Chu Lian.
She doesn't have high requirements for dressing, and Nanny Gui helps her take care of her daily clothes.
Nanny Gui gave the crabapple-colored one to the little maid to take it back to the closet and put it away, and handed the bamboo-blue one to Xiyan.
When Chu Lian changed her clothes and glanced at He Changdi, she suddenly understood.
Today, the husband and wife actually wore the same color of clothes. If they stood together, it would be as if they were wearing couple outfits...
Thinking that He Changdi had just interrupted to choose clothes for her, Chu Lian pursed her lips and smiled.
Nanny Gui and the other maidservants in the room were also stunned when they saw the appearance of the master and his wife standing together.
He Changdi saw that she was almost packed, so he also put the script aside.
Before going out, he did not forget to put on Chu Lian the ochre-colored cloak.
In two quarters of an hour, the couple arrived at the British government.
After all, Sister Yuan is the daughter of the second wife, so today's Heji ceremony is very lively.
Chu Lian's carriage stopped in front of the gate, and there were already welcoming mothers and maids at the gate.
He Changdi jumped out of the carriage first, and then reached out to help Chu Lian out of the carriage.
The old nuns who greeted the guests at the door all had winks, and of course they recognized Chu Lian at a glance.
One of the nuns hurried over with a maid, "Miss Six is back, the old man and the old lady have been talking about you for a long time." Then he saluted He Changdi who was beside Chu Lian.
The woman's eyes swept wildly. When she noticed the clothes of Chu Lian and He Changdi, as well as He Changdi's attitude towards Chu Lian, she became more cautious.
"Sixth uncle, the old master, the eldest master, the second master, the third master and the young masters are all in the study in the front yard! The old slave sent someone to take you there."
Because He Changdi now has a title, the servants of the British government are even more humble to him.
Chu Lian turned to look at him, "Do you want to go in first?"
He Changdi shook his head, "Go in, I'll go to the Yamen of the Ministry of War and come back at noon."
Chu Lian nodded.
He Sanlang took the reins from Yue Yue, squeezed Chu Lian's little hand before leaving, and gave Wenqing Wenlan a meaningful look, then got on his horse and left quickly.
Seeing that He Changdi cherished Chu Lian so much, the nanny actually sent Chu Lian back to her natal home in person even though she had a business to do. It could be seen the status of Miss Six in Young Master Six's heart, so she didn't dare to neglect her even more.
Carefully invited Chu Lian to the mansion.
As soon as Chu Lian entered the British residence, he bypassed Zhaobi, and a little maid ran away quickly in the dark, heading towards the inner courtyard.
Dark Fragrance Garden.
That is, the courtyard where Chu Lian lived in the British government, now belongs to Sister Yuan.
Sitting in the boudoir of Xiulou, Sister Yuan is dressing up. Today she is the protagonist, and it is her big day to reach the wedding ceremony.
The second lady was afraid that she would make a mistake, so she sent her confidant mother over.
At this time, Sister Yuan was sitting in front of the dressing table, letting the nanny comb her hair.
Suddenly a little girl ran in in a panic and almost bumped into the big girl Xiaoqin who was carrying the tray.
Xiaoqin scolded her angrily, and then asked: "What's the matter, you're in such a panic!"
The little girl looked at Miss Ba who was dressing up inside, and then glanced carefully at Xiaoqin, the big girl, "Sister Xiaoqin, it's Miss Six who is back."
Sister Yuan heard voices outside and ordered the little maid to go in and answer.
The little maid tremblingly lowered her head and entered the room.
Sister Yuan raised her hand to stop the nanny who was combing her hair, and turned to the little maid, "Tell me about the scene when Sixth Sister entered the mansion."
