With a commanding tone, Chaoli thought for a moment and understood what Gu Hanzhang meant. Then he walked up to Gu Hanzhang step by step and handed him the silk handkerchief in his hand.
Yes, when the Queen Mother granted marriage, Gu Hanzhang also had to consider the Queen Mother's face.
As soon as Gu Hanzhang took the Yuanpa from Chaoli's hand, Chaoli immediately turned around and walked towards the dressing table, fearing that he would avoid it.
She didn't notice that Gu Hanzhang's eyes fell on her without any trace, and a trace of suspicion flashed in his eyes.
There was a slight movement behind him, which was the sound of a dagger being unsheathed.
Look at your eyes, nose and heart, and use this comb to comb your hair numbly.
Speaking of which, the dagger Gu Hanzhang carried close to his body was a gift from his sweetheart.
If his sweetheart knew that Gu Hanzhang used a dagger to make a fake yuan handkerchief, I don't know what he would think. Is he grateful that Gu Hanzhang protected her body, or was he sighing that Gu Hanzhang's new wife was not her?
For a moment, Chaoli put aside the thoughts in his mind and stared at the bronze mirror in front of him intently.
The person in the mirror looks very good-looking, completely different from the one who lingered on the sickbed half a year before his death in his previous life. The corner of Chao Li's mouth curled up.
It’s great to be alive!
Not long after, a voice came from the door.
"My servant has disturbed the Crown Prince and his concubine. Madam asked my servant to come and take a look."
Aunt Wu is a good person, so the lady she talks about is naturally Gu Hanzhang's biological mother, Princess Desshao.
He said he wanted to take a look, but in fact he just came to get Yuanpa and check whether there was any damage on Chaoli's body.
"Enter."
Before Chaoli could speak, Gu Hanzhang responded.
Immediately, Nanny Wu bowed and entered, saluted the two of them, and walked straight to the bed without looking back.
Not long after, Nanny Wu said she was dressing up and changing Chaoli's clothes, but in fact, she checked her body, took Yuan Pa away with a smile, and closed the door carefully before leaving.
Chaoli looked away, knowing that tea was about to be served.
In her previous life, she served tea, but Chaoli suffered a lot. Gu Hanzhang just stood aside and said nothing, nor did he help her.
Perhaps when he fainted in the palace later, a large part of the reason was actually due to the tea ceremony.
In this life, if those people still try to climb on her head, then don't blame her for being rude.
Even if it was only for a year, she was not willing to flatter anyone any more, so she had to do whatever she could to show those who had bullied her a hard time.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound outside the door.
"Little madam, my servant is here to freshen you up."
Hearing Qing Yi's voice, Chaoli's eyes filled with sadness.
Half a year before his death in the last life, only the master and the servant depended on each other. Qingyi suffered a lot for this. His hands were soaked in well water in the winter and were covered with frostbite.
The corner of Chao Li's mouth curled up, but fortunately, everything was still in time.
"Qing Yi, come in."
"Yes, ma'am."
Qing Yi pushed the door open and saw Gu Hanzhang sitting at the table. She quickly lowered her head.
Sometimes she understood very well why her young lady would be attracted to such a cold-tempered person, who obviously had no feelings at all.
She didn't even risk her reputation for him, but she kept looking for various excuses to find Gu Hanzhang.
Even though there was no response, she still pestered him as always.
That's all, I just hope that the lady's full friendship can be appreciated.
"Qingyi, wear the dress prepared by my mother and make your makeup more elegant." Chaoli said calmly.
Qing Yi was stunned for a moment, glanced at the prince who was motionless as a pine, and spoke with some uncertainty.
"Didn't you say that the dress is elegant and should be worn again in a few days?"
On the second day of the wedding, she wore a long goose-yellow dress, which seemed not festive enough. After all, she only wore a wedding dress yesterday.
Originally, the young lady had prepared the dress for the second wedding day, but she changed her mind for some unknown reason.
"It doesn't matter, just do it."
Chaoli's expression didn't look fake, so Qing Yi had no choice but to answer.
After changing her clothes, Chao Li sat in front of the dressing table and let Qing Yi take care of it for her.
Compared with the clothes used to serve tea in the previous life, today's clothes looked much shabbier, but Chaoli didn't care.
As the saying goes: Women should look good to those who please themselves.
Now that you no longer focus on that person, you can wear whatever you want.
"One more thing, please call me miss from now on."
Qing Yi's hands moved for a moment, and her eyes were full of doubts. She didn't know why her young lady's reaction changed so much after one night. She finally got used to being called Mrs. Chaoli.
A few days ago, Chaoli's mother also told her about the rules of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion. Calling Miss is the way of calling her in the boudoir. When she gets married, she must be called Mrs. Chaoli.
What's more, the young lady finally married Gu Hanzhang, why was she not allowed to be called Madam?
It's just that Qing Yi has always listened to Chao Li, so of course he won't object.
The movements of the master and servant did not escape Gu Hanzhang. The room was so big, so he could naturally hear it.
Gu Hanzhang's eyes fluctuated slightly. He put down the book in his hand and raised his eyes to glance at Chaoli.
The woman, who was full of emotions, suddenly seemed to have changed into a different person overnight, which made Gu Hanzhang quite interesting.
After thinking for a while, he attributed this performance and the so-called one-year period to that person's methods.
Perhaps Chaoli just wanted him to fall in love with her within a year.
As if he suddenly lost interest, Gu Hanzhang stood up without saying a word, turned around and walked out with his hands behind his back.
When Qing Yi heard the footsteps disappear completely, she lowered her voice and spoke in a low voice.
"Miss, what happened between you and the prince? I saw nothing wrong with Grandma Wu leaving the wedding room this morning. She still had a faint smile on her face. The lady and the prince should have been singing in harmony last night.
But, why has the prince not changed at all and is still so indifferent?"
It stands to reason that newlyweds should be inseparable when they get married.
But there seemed to be only strangers and alienations between Chaoli and Gu Hanzhang, and the two did not look like husband and wife at all.
It is impossible for an ordinary maid to ask Chaoli these things, but it is a different matter since Qingyi and Chaoli have different feelings.
Chaoli chuckled lightly, "The past is like a dream. I don't want to continue it. I won't cover my heart when it's not warm. Qingyi, be more free from now on. Even in the harem, you don't need to be cautious."
No matter how cautious you are, if you are not popular, you are not popular. No matter how low-key you are, it will be useless.
Qing Yi pursed her lips and said nothing more, speeding up the movements of her hands.
She knew that Chaoli Ding was deeply hurt. If not, she would not have been able to say these words.
At the end of Mao Shi, Chaoli took Qingyi and went to Shaohua Garden where Princess Desao lived.
As for Gu Hanzhang, in his previous life he only showed up when everyone was gone in Chenshi, so Chaoli naturally wouldn't let Qingyi go look for him.
As soon as he reached the entrance of the courtyard of Shaohua Garden, the sounds inside reached Chaoli's ears.
"Mom, how could eldest brother marry that woman? I just don't want her to be my sister-in-law. She is not worthy at all! She didn't come to serve tea so late and made us wait. This is how the upbringing of a small family is, really.
My brother feels worthless!"
Hearing this voice, Chaoli couldn't help but laugh.
