Uncle Lai in the Red Chamber

Chapter 477 Supporting Each Other
"The uncle is back!"

……

Lai Shangrong walked into the second door of his house and saw that the yard was already full of people.

Although they were only away for one day and one night, they experienced so much on that day. Not only them, but also Lai Shangrong felt like they were separated for three autumns.

"Husband!" Lin Daiyu took the lead and threw herself into his arms.

Lai Shangrong guiltily pushed him away, and said warmly: "I was so busy yesterday that I didn't even have time to take a shower. My body smells bad. If I want to be my husband, please wait until I take a shower and change my clothes before I go back to the room!"

Lin Daiyu gave Lai Shangrong a blank look, and said in disguise: "I feel sorry for Second Sister, I have been waiting for you in the room for a whole day, and my concubine told her not to be rigid, but she insisted on waiting for the uncle to come back and take off the hijab, wash up and go to Second Sister's room. !”

Lai Shangrong raised his head and looked around, realizing that Yingchun was not there.

However, apart from her, not only his wife and concubines were present, but also the female relatives of the Rong Mansion were present, looking at him with eager faces.

Although Lai Shangrong ordered to guard his own family and Rongfu, but everything has a priority, and the Lai family feels more secure.

"Don't worry, everyone! The capital is already safe, and I have ordered the withdrawal of the security department outside the mansion!"

After a pause, he said ambiguously: "Let's go back separately first! There are a lot of things these days, and I may not have time to take care of you. I will go to your room when I am free."

After all, there was a large audience, not just his own wife and concubines, especially Wang Xifeng who had a big belly, so he could only comfort people in this way.

Everyone knew that he was halfway married and still wanted to go to the Spring Festival House, so it was inconvenient for everyone to come up and pester him.

Mrs. Wang hesitated for a long time, and finally bit her lower lip, then did the opposite, took two steps forward, and said worriedly: "I heard that rebels have invaded the imperial city, your Majesty..."

Although he boldly stepped forward to speak, he could not hide the fear on his face.

She can ignore Jia Zheng, but she cannot ignore Jia Baoyu.

I originally thought that it would not be a problem for Youshi to let her precious son hide in Lai's house even though she knew her relationship with Lai Shangrong.

Unexpectedly, not only did Youshi show no mercy at all, but even Lin Daiyu didn't help to speak. Instead, it was Jia Lan who moved into the study in the front yard where Qin Zhong lived because of his master-disciple relationship with Lai Shangrong.

Although Jia Landou occupies the title of master and apprentice, he is just like Jia Baoyu, he is a cheap son.

She couldn't figure out the reason for the different treatment for a while, and was afraid that Lai Shangrong would become ruthless.

Originally, she wanted to accompany her son, but then she thought about it. If she stayed in Rong Mansion, if she was really trapped and didn't have the key to the corner door, she would really be in trouble every day.

On the contrary, if you stay at Lai's house, if the situation is really urgent, you can still have a way to seek help.

Lai Shangrong didn't see her fear, he just thought it was due to fear.

He smiled and said: "Second Madam, don't worry. I will take care of you in the palace. Everything will be fine for your empress. This time it is a blessing in disguise. I share the joys and sorrows with the empress. I already feel like a sister. Now I have moved to Fengzao Palace to live with the empress!"

"Amitabha!" Mrs. Wang patted her chest and chanted the Buddha's name, concealing her inner ecstasy.

"Hey! Hey! That's good, Shang Rong will be busy first, and I'll go back first!"

She didn't know the situation in the palace, let alone the true meaning of sharing the joys and sorrows in Lai Shangrong's words.

After experiencing this change, Jia Yuanchun really got a blessing in disguise and developed a sisterly relationship with Queen Tian.

And with this friendship, the son also has an invisible supporter.

Lai Shangrong looked at Mrs. Wang, who was shaking her shoulders and turning to leave. He couldn't help but think of Jia Yuanchun, who was so obedient last night, and said by mistake: "Now the Forbidden Palace is guarded by the security department. If the second wife is worried, just tell me, I will I'll take the time to send you to the palace, as your Majesty is also very worried about the situation at home."

"Hey! That's a good relationship! I'm afraid of trouble Shangrong!" Mrs. Wang agreed without any doubt.

"It's okay! It's okay! I'm going to the palace anyway, it's just a matter of little effort."

"Husband, go and see the second sister! I'll see Auntie off!" After all, Mrs. Wang is the elder. Seeing that the matter had been discussed and everyone had dispersed, Lin Daiyu took on the task of seeing off the guests.

Of course, she had another purpose. The palace was surrounded by soldiers from the security department, so it was inconvenient for her to mention the dowry.

Since Lai Shangrong said that the soldiers had been withdrawn, he just mentioned it, and there was no need to find another opportunity.

…………

"Grandma! What are you worried about after Tang has bowed down? Aunt Lin... Grandma also said that there is no need to be rigid. You won't go out to greet the uncle when he comes back!"

Si Qi in the wedding room couldn't help but complain.

Yingchun, who was wearing a hijab and sitting upright on the edge of the bed, Nuo Nuo said: "Yesterday, I had to obey the authority urgently, but now the ceremony has not been completed, how can I go out?"

The most worrying thing yesterday was undoubtedly the Spring Festival. Just after the ceremony, the groom ran away and returned to Rong Mansion again.

She already had some low self-esteem, and she was afraid that this was an excuse made up by the Lai family who regretted marrying her as a concubine and deliberately regretted the marriage.

Therefore, not only did the hijab remain on during the transfer, but when they returned to the wedding room, they would not leave even an inch, insisting on waiting until the ceremony was completed.

Even when she went to bed last night, she slept with her clothes on and her face covered. Siqi, Xiuju and Xiaolianhua were also told to take turns guarding the hijab to prevent it from falling off.

But Lai Shangrong was already mentally prepared after hearing Lin Daiyu's words. He couldn't help but be startled when he saw Yingchun, who was dressed in wedding clothes and sitting upright with her head covered.

He would like to think that he does one thing on the outside and another behind the scenes, and that he is doing all the work for outsiders to see. He should at least relax a little when no one is around.

It can be seen that white salt stains are faintly oozing from the wedding clothes for Yingchun, and I can't help but feel a deep sense of guilt.

It was midsummer, and thanks to how tightly she covered it, she was able to hold on for so long.

He quickly came to the table, picked up the scale beam, lifted up his hijab, and said warmly: "My dear wife is tired of hard work!"

"I don't have to work hard!"

Although Yingchun said it was not hard, tears could not help but fall from the corners of her eyes. She had not washed herself all day and night, and inevitably there were two lines of dirt mixed with rouge powder on her face.

Lai Shangrong took her catkins, half pulled and half hugged her and slowly brought her to the table. He picked up the combined wine on the table, handed a cup to Yingchun, and drank it down around his neck.

After drinking the quilt wine, I couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief when welcoming the spring.

She said shyly: "I...I'm going to freshen up first, and then I'll come back to serve you..."

Lai Shangrong held Yingchun's slender waist, bowed his head and touched her red lips.

For a long time, the lips are divided.

Looking at the panting Yingchun, a princess hugged her and lifted her up.

"It just so happens that my husband hasn't bathed yet, and my wife has been tired after a hard day's work. It's up to my husband to take advantage of it and take a bath with my wife!"

He originally planned to come back after taking a bath, but it was difficult to switch from frugality to luxury. Uncle Lai, who was used to enjoying himself, was really not used to it. No one was waiting on him while taking a bath.

So he ordered the bath water to be prepared and called Si Qi to serve him.

Yingchun had never experienced such kindness and tenderness before. She raised her watery eyes and said emotionally: "This... how can this happen? I should serve the uncle!"

"Tsk tsk tsk! Then we husband and wife are of the same mind and support each other!"

With that said, he held the beauty in his arms and walked into the bathroom with his head held high.
