The servants of the Zheng family who were waiting in this courtyard heard some movement in the house and stood outside the door ready to wait.
The bride just walked in yesterday, and everyone officially met Xu Chunjun today.
Knowing that the uncle didn't rest in this room last night, they all guessed that Xu Chunjun's eyes would be swollen from crying.
Who would have thought that this newly arrived grandma had already finished dressing up, her face was quiet and elegant, her behavior was dignified, and she looked like a rich lady.
There was no trace of anger or shame on his face, he was generous and kind and easy-going.
Zi Ling, as Xu Chunjun's roommate, conveyed a message to everyone on Xu Chunjun's behalf: "We girls said that when we meet everyone for the first time, each of us will be given a red envelope as a meeting gift. Everyone will come here to receive the reward in order of age. By the way,
Tell me what your last name is, how long you have been here, and what kind of jobs you have done, so that we girls can get familiar with each other."
There are a total of eight people serving in Xu Chunjun's courtyard, two older girls and two younger girls. In addition, there are two women who specialize in running errands and two rough ladies.
Half of them are old people in the house, and the other half were bought in the past few months.
The Zheng family could not make ends meet, so Mrs. Cheng Yihou paid for the purchase.
Everyone came to Xu Chunjun one by one to receive the reward. They thanked each other and told their names and origins. Xu Chunjun remembered them one by one.
There were two maids in this mansion, one was named Chun Xing and the other was named Hongmei.
After hearing this, Lu Shen said to Chun Xing: "Your name is too taboo for our girls, so we must change it."
Na Chunxing said hurriedly: "Please ask Grandma to give this slave a name!"
Xu Chunjun then said to her and Hongmei: "I changed your two names together and made them a couple so that you can call them both easily in the future."
So the spring apricot was renamed A Li, and the red plum was renamed A Li.
The two kowtowed and thanked each other.
Because this was Xu Chunjun's first day of marriage, he and Zheng Wuji had to serve tea to the great grandmother and mother-in-law.
But at this time, Zheng Wuji hadn't come over yet, so someone had to come over here to invite him.
"Mother Zhou, Mother Feng, could you two please go over and inform your uncle so that he doesn't forget to serve tea to the old lady and his wife later."
The two women agreed to go, and Xu Chunjun said: "The uncle was drunk last night, and he must not have sobered up at this time. He asked the kitchen to prepare breakfast and sent it over, and let him use it in Aunt Liu's room."
She will have breakfast later, and then go to pay her respects to her elders after finishing it.
If we wait for Zheng Wuji to come over and have dinner together, I'm afraid we will be delayed again. What's more, it will be awkward for the two of them to meet each other, so it is better for them to be more comfortable with each other.
Zheng Wuji woke up with a hangover and a splitting headache.
Liu Xixi diligently brought him sobering tea. He drank a bowl and lay there without moving.
"If uncle sobers up, go and see grandma! You were too drunk last night, and if you don't go there now, grandma will definitely be angry." Liu Xixi has apricot eyes, thin lips, and a pointed chin, which makes her look very pitiful.
.
Zheng Wuji reached out and took her into his arms, closed his eyes and said, "Don't talk, just lie with me for a while."
After a while, the mother-in-law from Xu Chunjun's courtyard came over to deliver a message.
Here Aunt Hu promised: "I will tell the uncle right away."
Then the people in the kitchen also brought breakfast.
"Grandma is so considerate." Ms. Liu didn't expect Xu Chunjun to do such a good job.
Not only was it not noisy, but it seemed thoughtful in every aspect.
Zheng Wuji was not angry, but he couldn't show it.
He just had trouble with Xu Chunjun and didn't want to involve the rest of the family.
What's more, serving tea to the bride is a big event. If she doesn't go, grandma and mother will have to wait.
When the time comes, you will definitely have to ask, and you will have to explain yourself.
Mrs. Jin and Mrs. Fang both doted on her very much. Whenever Zheng Wuji got into trouble, they would not punish or beat her like other elders. At most, they would just cry and talk.
Finally, ask him if he is hungry, cold, and aggrieved.
Zheng Wuji only drank half a bowl of porridge, washed up, changed his clothes, and then took the boy to the main room where Xu Chunjun lived.
His head still hurt, as if someone had tightened a string inside and strummed it randomly.
Seeing that there was no one around him, he asked the boy: "Xiao Shun, what happened in the house last night?"
"Don't worry, uncle, everything is fine." Xiao Shun answered truthfully.
"Didn't she make trouble?" Zheng Wuji didn't believe it.
"No, everything was fine last night." Xiao Shun said.
Zheng Wuji stopped asking and raised his hand to knock on his head, trying to relieve his headache.
"The uncle is here!" The two little girls standing on the steps at the door said hello to Zheng Wuji and raised the curtain.
Zheng Wuji didn't say anything and walked in.
Ah Li and Ah Li came out of the room and said blessings together.
The Xiang bamboo curtain swayed and gently bumped into the corner of Zheng Wuji's robe.
Xu Chunjun also finished his breakfast and had already put away the dishes.
Seeing Zheng Wuji coming in, Ziling and Lvchun rushed forward to say hello.
Xu Chunjun also slowly stood up.
Zheng Wuji glanced at her, "Zhen Jingjuan is so beautiful, she is even more beautiful than when he first saw her on the street."
He glanced at Xu Chunjun again, trying to read something on her face.
Such as loss, such as grievance.
But there were none.
Zheng Wuji couldn't help but laugh in his heart. A woman stayed alone in an empty room on her wedding night, but was not anxious or annoyed. What does this mean?
It shows that she doesn't care about her husband at all.
Maybe it was a good thing for her that she didn't come last night.
Chen Sijing's face flashed before Zheng Wuji's eyes, and the annoyance in his heart suddenly worsened.
But he quickly suppressed his annoyance. Who is Zheng Wuji?
Can you still be controlled by this little woman?
"I wonder if you are ready, sir?" Xu Chunjun asked, lowering his eyes slightly.
"Go and serve tea!" Zheng Wuji turned around, "I still want to go out for a walk after this is done!"
He was so arrogant, and both Ziling and Lvchun were unhappy.
Zheng Wuji, a libertine, is simply a puddle of mud.
Xu Chunjun didn't care. From the moment she agreed to Madam Lu's request, she knew what she was going to face.
She just needs to be a good wife to the Zheng family and do her best to take care of the family.
As for what Zheng Wuji wanted to do to her, she didn't force him at all.
Because she is still a bride, the clothes Xu Chunjun wears today are crimson and dignified.
Her hair style is already a woman's bun, which makes her look graceful and graceful, which is beyond comparison with vulgar makeup.
When the old lady Jin and his wife met her, they realized why Zheng Wuji's aunt insisted on consummating the marriage.
Regardless of family background, Xu Chunjun is truly outstanding.
With her appearance and temperament, not many of the public servants in the capital could choose her.
Xu Chunjun and his wife knelt down to the old lady and said hello to her.
The maid in front of them had already prepared tea, and Xu Chunjun and Zheng Wuji served it according to the rules.
Jin's and Fang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law gave Xu Chunjun a meeting gift respectively, and also said some words of encouragement and blessing.
Xu Chunjun always had a smile on his face, but he understood clearly in his heart.
Zheng Wuji was still willing to maintain superficial peace in front of her elders, and this was enough for her.
