Chapter 5
There were two maidservants standing at the entrance of the yard. In fact, when Chao Li came, someone should have gone in to inform her.

However, now that she is standing at the entrance of the yard, she can still hear the voices inside, which is obviously the intention of Princess Dessau.

On the second day of their wedding, she, the princess mother-in-law, was not stingy at all to show her off.

The reason is nothing more than those two.

Under normal circumstances, Chaoli, the eldest concubine, should take over the duties of housekeeper on the second day of her wedding and take control of the entire Zhenbeihou Mansion.

Old Hou Ye lost his wife 30 years ago, and he has never continued it. There is no old lady in the family.

As a royal princess, Princess Dessau married the eldest son of the Zhenbei Houfu, and it was understandable for Princess Dessau to be in charge of the family before Chaoli married.

But Chaoli has already married the heir of the Zhenbeihou Mansion, and she is the one who should be in charge of the family among the women in the mansion.

In the previous life, Princess Dessau was devoted to Gu Hanzhang by relying on Chaoli, and cared about him in everything. After marrying into the Zhenbeihou Mansion for three years, she was not allowed to be in charge of the family, and she suffered a lot of grievances.

The reason why Princess Dessau made such a fuss was to make Chaoli retreat and let her understand that she was not liked by her mother-in-law and sister-in-law and had to support them.

Knocking the mountain and shaking the tiger also makes Chaoli more humble and small, don't try to be in charge of the family.

However, today's Chaoli is not what it used to be.

There was a gentle smile on the corner of Chaoli's mouth, and he stepped into the front hall. The people sitting in the front hall were all familiar people.

No, after three years of getting along, even if it turns into ashes, you can recognize it!

Old Hou Ye was seriously injured when he was young, and his body has always been uncomfortable. It is even more difficult to suffer from the recurrence of old injuries in winter, so he lived in seclusion. He attended the wedding yesterday for a while, and soon returned to the yard to rest. Today, the tea ceremony did not show up. Not surprising.

The middle-aged man sitting at the top is the eldest son Gu Qinghan. He is a literati and poet in the eyes of the people in the capital. He has no official position, and his calligraphy and calligraphy make people flock to him.

On Gu Qinghan's right is the princess of Dessau, who is naturally extremely gorgeously dressed, with bright displeasure in her eyes.

On the left is Gu Qingyu, the master of the second room. In the past, he loved admiring flowers and playing birds.

His wife's second aunt, Zhang Shi, has sharp teeth and sharp mouth, and her shrewd eyes can't hide her thoughts at all.

Gu Qingyu has two sons, one is Gu Jiu and the other is Gu Zhou, let's not mention them for now.

Sanfang Gu Qinghai is not here today, he is lazy, likes to gamble, and he only has four fingers on his left hand.

The reason is that in the early years, the little finger was chopped off by Zhenbei Hou to quit gambling. The old Hou was upright and didn't intend to let his son harm other girls, so he didn't let him get married.

Gu Qinghai usually wouldn't let him appear on formal occasions, and Chaoli and Gu Hanzhang didn't come when they got married yesterday.

On the right of Princess Dessau is her daughter Gu Xiyue, who is also Gu Hanzhang's biological sister.

It was she who spoke in the front hall just now.

With the outstanding looks of Gu Qinghan and Princess Dessau, Gu Hanzhang's appearance is naturally superior, and his sister is not bad either.

It's that temperament that makes people hard to describe.

On the right of Gu Xiyue is the family of Sifang Gu Qingfeng. In Chaoli's eyes, Uncle Gu is a man of beauty. He is a bachelor of the Imperial Academy. Although his official position is only from the fourth rank, he is upright and has only been monogamous for many years. Mrs. Li and her daughter, Gu Le, have the special affection of the old Hou Ye.

In the entire Zhenbeihou's mansion in the previous life, the fourth bedroom Gu Qingfeng's family of three felt the only warmth from Chaoli, especially the younger sister Gu Le.

After Chao Li entered the front hall, everyone fell silent, and no one spoke again.

Everyone thought that Chaoli would be uncomfortable, after all, she was always timid, and every time she met in the Hou's mansion, she always looked like a bully.

"Chaoli has met all the elders, as well as the second brother, the third brother, the fourth sister, and the younger sister."

Gone?

Everyone was a little puzzled. According to Chaoli's temperament, he should greet them one by one, praise them, and greet them with a low eyebrow.

Today, she seems a little different.

Chao Li pretended not to see everyone's doubts, and behaved gracefully.

Seeing this, Gu Xiyue was the first to speak.

"It seems that the upbringing of the imperial court is just like this. Don't say that the tea ceremony is late, and you don't even know how to greet you. If you knew this, you should let Wu Mama set a three-month rule for you."

Grandma Wu used to be the foster mother of Princess Dessau, if Princess Dessau said to ask Grandma Wu to set up the rules for Chaoli, it would make sense.

However, it shouldn't be her who spoke.

"Four sisters are wrong. The tea ceremony is at Maoshi, and I am not late. As for the greeting, I feel sorry for seeing the elders waiting, so I will make a long story short and let them rest. And Madam Wu sets the rules Don't bother fourth sister to worry about this matter. After all, the empress dowager sent a nurturing nun here, and I was also praised. It's just that fourth sister, I'm your sister-in-law anyway, so you'd better be careful not to affect your reputation. "

Chaoli's words are gentle, making it impossible to find faults.

Chaoli stood with lowered eyebrows and lowered the curvature of his mouth. It would be better if he didn't have those two disgusting gazes on his body.

It made people wonder just now, but now Chaoli's words are even more shocking. When did Chaoli become so sharp-tongued and eloquent?

If Chaoli knew what everyone was thinking, he would definitely laugh out loud.

If it wasn't for Gu Hanzhang's face in the previous life, how could she let herself lose face in front of these people?
Now, affectionately, these people are nothing!

"Chaoli, how dare you talk to me like that!" Gu Xiyue was furious.

She has always been favored, even in the past, Chaoli would respect her when he came to the mansion, but today he was ridiculed by Chaoli, and he still couldn't find a way to go wrong.

The person who had been suppressing stood up, and Gu Xiyue was naturally very angry.

Biansheng Chaoli looked innocent, "Fourth sister, am I wrong? If there is something wrong, you can tell me and I will correct it. It's just that you call your elder sister-in-law by her first name, I'm afraid it will make people criticize the education of the Hou Mansion."

"You!" Gu Xiyue was furious, "You dress so elegantly to serve tea, it's disrespectful to the elders!"

"Fourth sister, I'm well dressed."

Gu Qinghan coughed lightly, "Okay, Hanzhang's daughter-in-law quickly serve tea, and will enter the palace later."

Everyone withdrew their gazes, and Princess Dessau glared at Chao Li.

The tea was prepared a long time ago, and Chaoli had already experienced it once, so naturally some of the calculations could not be hidden from her, and the actions that had been drafted were extremely appropriate.

After the tea ceremony was over, Princess Dessau couldn't get up or down, and was even more angry.

Obviously she was ready for Chaoli to spill the tea, but she turned out to be completely fine, serving the tea so steadily that she lost a precious gemstone walker.

After serving tea, only Princess Dessau and Gu Xiyue were left in the front hall.

At this moment, an outstanding-looking maid stepped into the front hall with a tray, walked up to Princess Dessau and Gu Xiyue and put down the things.

"Ma'am, miss, drink some pears to soothe your throat."

The moment Zhao Li saw her, his eyes were full of coldness.
