When Man Bao opened her eyes, she noticed a gaze. She turned her head slightly and saw Bai Shan. He held his head and looked at her with a smile.
Man Bao's face was slightly red, and he hugged the quilt and asked, "What time is it?"
Bai Shan turned around and looked at the time, then retracted his head and said, "Chen Shi."
this late?
Man Bao immediately wanted to sit up, but thought bad about it, so he lay down again and said, "Get up quickly, Grandma Liu and Aunt Zheng are waiting for us."
Bai Shan couldn't afford it, so he came closer and said, "Why are you still calling me Grandma Liu and Aunt Zheng? You're going to change your name today."
Man Bao's face turned redder and redder. He reached out and pushed his chest, pretending to be angry: "Get up quickly."
Bai Shan quickly kissed her on the mouth and then stood up with a smile.
Man Bao exhaled a breath, stretched out his hands to close the tent tightly, and then stood up.
The two of them put on their clothes. Wuyue and Jiulan each came in with a basin of hot water and said to them: "Master, madam, the elders of the clan have come over."
Bai Shan frowned slightly, and while twisting his handkerchief to clean his face, he asked, "What are they doing here?"
Wuyue smiled and said: "On the second day after the wedding, my wife will pay homage to her uncle and aunt."
Bai Shan's expression was calm, "Our family has only a weak relationship with them. We will see them again in the future. Are they invited by grandma?"
"That's not true," Wuyue was stunned for a moment and then said, "I said she lives close by. I came here early this morning and wanted to meet my new wife."
Man Bao had already washed his face and said nonchalantly after hearing the words: "Let's see you when we meet. We'll meet you in the evening and in the morning. In May, go find some Western cakes and ask her to put on the shoes and handkerchiefs she prepared."
Find all kinds of things and divide them according to the people who come. You and Jiulan will give you the greeting gifts later."
Bai Shan couldn't help but turn to look at her, "Have you prepared so many greeting gifts?"
Man Bao chuckled and said, "My sister-in-law prepared it for two months."
After learning that the Bai family in Longzhou had lost money to buy this compound for Mrs. Liu, the young Qian family had been making preparations.
There was nothing expensive, and there were a lot of scattered fabrics at home, and the materials were all pretty good, so she made a lot of shoes. She didn't ask the relatives of the Bai family how long their feet were, and just made them according to her nephews, nieces, brothers and sisters-in-law.
Made of feet.
When the time comes, let Wuyue and Jiulan have a rough estimate of which pair to give to them. They all come uninvited anyway.
After Man Bao had washed himself and sat in front of the dressing table, Bai Shan was eager to give it a try, "Let me comb your hair."
Man Bao looked at the time and said, "You can comb your hair, but the rest will be left to Jiulan."
Bai Shan was very curious, "Then I will draw eyebrows for you?"
Man Bao slapped his hand away and said, "When you have time in the future, grandma is already waiting in front."
Bai Shan felt infinitely regretful, and at the same time he was even more unwelcome to the relatives who came to visit him.
If it weren't for them, given their grandmother's temperament, wouldn't they be able to be as comfortable as they want?
Wuyue and Jiulan smiled and stepped forward to serve. They combed Manbao's hair and decorated it with the jewelry Manbao picked. Baishan had already done his own hair. Seeing this, he picked out a bunch of jewelry in the makeup box and decorated it with one.
Ruby forehead ornament, he smiled and said: "This looks good, wear this."
Man Bao took one look at it and did not refuse. She rarely had the opportunity to wear such jewelry because it was inconvenient.
Seeing that she didn't object, Wuyue took it and put it on her.
Manbao turned his head slightly and looked at himself in the bronze mirror. Wuyue and Jiulan were speechless for a while looking at this suddenly bright lady.
Manbao pursed his lips and smiled, and the familiar charming and naive aura returned. Wuyue and Jiulan breathed a sigh of relief, and the Mingyan's coldness just now seemed to be an illusion.
Man Bao remembered something, turned around and took out a bracelet from under the bed and put it on his hand. Bai Shan's eyes were attracted by the bracelet and asked, "Where did this come from?"
Man Bao glanced at him and said, "It was given by someone else."
Bai Shan also looked at her and realized that only one person would become someone else in Man Bao's mouth.
Bai Shan reached out and took her hand, "Let's go."
The two of them were about to go to the main hall when a woman hurried over, followed by a woman carrying a tray of cakes.
Seeing the dressed-up Zhou Man, he was also stunned for a moment. After coming back to his senses, he quickly stepped forward and saluted: "Mr. Sir, madam, the old lady asked you to use something to fill your stomach before going over."
A tray of Western cakes was brought forward, including a plate of steamed buns and pickled vegetables, and two bowls of goat's milk.
Bai Shan simply led Man Bao back to the house and sat down. After all the cakes were put down, he asked, "Why, are there many people here?"
The mother-in-law smiled and said: "The third and fifth masters from my family are here with their wives. By the way, the old lady from the third bedroom is here with her two young ladies and the husband."
That's a lot.
Bai Shan took Man Bao to eat first.
Man Bao drank goat's milk first. The mother-in-law was even more happy when she saw that they ate deliciously. She also watched Bai Shan and Zhou Man grow up, and was familiar with Zhou Man, so she said to the side without hesitation: "Because it came suddenly.
The old lady was afraid that my wife was unprepared, so I asked my mother-in-law to prepare some purses and handkerchiefs for you."
She said: "The old lady wants me to give you a purse and a handkerchief, and my husband will give you a purse and a study room."
Man Bao immediately said: "I have prepared some at home, including shoes."
Shoes are a must-have for recognizing relatives. When the mother-in-law heard this, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "That's great. I'll go talk to the old lady later."
Seeing the two of them finish the small steamed buns on the plate in a few seconds, I felt sad for a moment and said, "It's too little, isn't it? Why don't you ask the kitchen to send two more plates?"
The young master and Miss Man have always had good appetites. They used to be able to eat a large plate each. How could such a small plate of steamed buns be enough?
Man Bao immediately said: "No, no, I have to have breakfast with my grandmother and mother later. This is just to fill my stomach."
The mother-in-law thought so, so she nodded and served them to the main hall.
The guests in the main hall were chatting happily with Mrs. Liu. They seemed not to notice that Mr. and Mrs. Bai Shan were not coming. When the report came from outside, they couldn't help but sit up straighter. Speaking of which, although they went to Zhou's house
I have visited Mrs. Liu several times, but I rarely meet Mr. Zhou.
It was all because she was busy with vaccination at the Imperial Medical Office during this period.
Bai Min, the third master who made the decision, sat up slightly and looked at the door with bright eyes.
Bai Shan and Zhou Man came together.
Seeing that she was dressed in a dress that was less charming and naive than usual, and more bright and cold, Mrs. Liu's eyes flashed with a glimmer, and the corners of her mouth were raised higher and higher, with an unconscious smile on her face.
As soon as he entered the door, Man Bao couldn't help but smile when he saw Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Zheng. The calmness and coolness on his face disappeared instantly.
Mrs. Liu:...
But Mrs. Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and smiled with bright eyes. Sure enough, Man Bao was still the same Man Bao.
