Chapter 8 The male protagonist is a cousin
Gu Wenjing only had three days of marriage leave, so he took two days off in the Marquis' Mansion and took Cheng Yuhua back to the door on the third day.
Unlike the anger and hatred of the original owner after the divorce, the Cheng family was angry and hatred for him, Gu Wenjing was admitted to the top scorer after coming, and he was the prince of the Marquis's family. He married Cheng Yuhua in a glorious manner. The Cheng family naturally was very enthusiastic and friendly to Gu Wenjing, the son-in-law.
After returning to the door for three dynasties, Shangshu Cheng mostly smiled at Gu Wenjing. His two brothers-in-law, Cheng Yan and Cheng Heng, were also waiting for his sister-in-law to come to the door at home.
Cheng Yuhua followed Mrs. Cheng into the backyard and spoke privately.
"Yuhua, how are you doing well when you marry into the Marquis' Mansion?"
Cheng Yuhua smiled shyly and whispered: "My husband treats me very well." Unlike ancient indigenous men who were careless, Gu Wenjing was gentle and considerate, clean and self-disciplined, Cheng Yuhua naturally felt that it was very good.
Seeing Cheng Yuhua's moist appearance with a flushed face, Mrs. Cheng finally let go of her heart, and smiled and said, "I feel relieved if I live a good life... But Wen Jing treats you well, you should also respond more and grasp his heart. This is how couples get along..."
When he returned home afterwards, Cheng Yuhua's cheeks were flushed, and even when he met Gu Wenjing, he couldn't help but dodge.
This made Gu Wenjing very curious: "What did my mother-in-law say to her wife? Why did the wife look embarrassed?"
Cheng Yuhua's face suddenly turned redder.
It was not until Gu Wenjing tasted Cheng Yuhua's more enthusiastic response in the evening that he vaguely figured out the truth.
When he got up early in the morning to go to work at Hanlin Academy, Gu Wenjing looked at his wife who had only known him for three days, got up gently, put on his own clothes and went out to wash.
Gu Wenjing ordered Cheng Yuhua's dowry maid Biyu, who was guarding outside the door, and said, "The young lady is still resting, so there is no need to disturb her."
After saying that, he went to breakfast first and then went to work.
When Cheng Yuhua was woken up by Biyu, the people around him were lying there and they frowned slightly: "Honey, have you gone to Hanlin Academy?"
Biyu replied: "The prince left early in the morning, but he just told me not to wake up the young lady in advance, but I was worried that the young lady would miss the time to pay my respects..."
Cheng Yuhua smiled and said, "You did nothing wrong, you can't miss the wish." However, Gu Wenjing did not let the maid disturb her, and asked her to rest for a while and considerate, which would also benefit her.
After Cheng Yuhua washed and dressed up, he used a bowl of porridge and two spring rolls with side dishes, so he couldn't eat it anymore. He took his maid to the main room to pay his respects to Yuan.
As a super marquis, Ningyuan Hou is also responsible for a heavy duty and has to go to court every day. He goes out earlier than Gu Wenjing. After all, Gu Wenjing is now a 16th-rank official and is not qualified to attend the morning court.
Therefore, Cheng Yuhua didn't have to pay tribute to Ningyuan Hou in the morning, and she was a daughter-in-law and it was not convenient to meet her father-in-law. She just needed to pay tribute to her mother-in-law Yuan every day.
When Cheng Yuhua came to the main house, Yuan had been waiting for a long time.
"Daughter-in-law greets my mother!" When Cheng Yuhua greeted her, he glanced at Yuan Susu standing behind Yuan. It seemed that she could see her every time she came to Yuan's place.
Yuan smiled and held Cheng Yuhua's hand and praised: "When I made an engagement with you, I knew you were a gentle, virtuous and generous wife. Now I see it really is good."
Cheng Yuhua smiled and said modestly, vaguely feeling that Yuan was too enthusiastic.
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law chatted for a while, and Yuan suddenly said, "Since you have already married into the Marquis' Mansion, you will be in charge of the feeding of the Marquis' Mansion in the future. Why don't you practice some of the affairs first?"
Cheng Yuhua was a little disbelief. She could get the housekeeper's power from her mother-in-law as soon as she got married. Even if it was only part of the housekeeper's power, she was very surprised. She was ready to wait until she gave birth to a son, or until her mother-in-law was incompetent and could not take over the housekeeper's power.
The surprise came too suddenly, and she didn't dare to refuse, but said modestly: "Thank you for your attention, and your daughter-in-law also needs your mother to teach you more."
Yuan smiled and said: "Mother knows you are virtuous." She pulled Yuan Susu beside her and said to Cheng Yuhua, "This is your cousin Susu. She and Wen Jing have a deep relationship. They are unwilling to leave the house and are willing to be a concubine for Wen Jing. What do you think about letting Susu be a precious concubine?"
The smile on Cheng Yuhua's face suddenly became stiff.
A noble concubine? A noble concubine can be promoted after the death of a wife!
How could a newlywed mother ask her, the new wife, to bring a precious concubine back to her husband after only three days of marriage? It’s so bullying!
Cheng Yuhua finally understood why some housekeepers came so easily. The relationship was to give her a sweet date first!
She opened her mouth to refuse, but looking at Yuan's seemingly kind but indisputable expression, thinking that she had just married into the mansion and had a shallow foundation, but her husband had a deep relationship with her cousin's childhood sweetheart, and her mother-in-law supported her niece, she finally lowered her head: "Mother is the decision."
Both Yuan and Yuan Susu smiled with satisfaction.
Cheng Yuhua held the veil tightly. She had been addicted to her husband's gentleness and consideration these days, and finally woke up.
Thinking of what her mother once warned her that men are the same, and even her father, Shangshu Cheng, also has several concubines? Cheng Yuhua has begun to calmly think about how to deal with Yuan Susu, a precious concubine.
Although she was forced to agree due to the pressure from her mother-in-law Yuan, a concubine who had a relationship with her husband and had cousins was really threatened by her, and she could not sit still and wait for death.
Cheng Yuhua felt so disgusted by this time. After the consultation, she went back to her room and kept calm and silent.
Her nanny was upset for her: "Miss, this marquis's mansion is too unpretentious. You have only entered the door for three days and can't wait to send it to the concubine. This is completely bullying! Why did you agree?"
Cheng Yuhua felt bitter in his heart: "So what can I do? Yuan Susu is her husband's cousin, and the two have already had feelings for each other. If I do not agree, not only the old lady will think that I am not virtuous and generous enough, but even the husband will blame me. Instead of letting Yuan Susu enter the house after being disconnected, it would be better to agree now." As for Yuan Susu, she can always deal with her.
The nanny hesitated and said, "Do you want to tell your wife?" The lady she said refers to Cheng Yuhua's mother, Mrs. Cheng.
Cheng Yuhua said helplessly: "It's useless to tell her mother now, and she will know sooner or later." She now sent someone to Cheng's mansion to tell her mother, which inevitably made the Hou Mansion feel that she was going back to complain, which made her endurance of hard work in vain.
Biyu came in and said with dissatisfaction: "Young lady, the old lady sent someone to send her cousin."
