Houmen's step-wife

Chapter 16
Su Wan asked Lu Fu to put these things away and register them so that they would not be lost.

When she went to pay her respects at night, Su Wan specially thanked Mrs. Tai.

Lord Hou didn't come over for dinner at night, Su Wan thought he would not come tonight, so she planned to go to bed early to rest.

Who knew that she had just washed up and was about to go to bed when Master Hou came, which made Su Wan a little nervous.

However, being acquainted once and acquainted twice, Su Wan can barely face being in the same room with him calmly.

Lu Fu went to get hot water to soak the feet of Lord Hou. Hong Xiao originally wanted to grab this job, but Lu Fu avoided it lightly and skillfully, and didn't let her be cautious at all.

Everyone knows that Hongxiao and Zijing want to be aunts, so how could Lufu allow her to come to Lord Hou.

As for Qingling, she couldn't see her intentions for the time being, she was very silent and low-key, like an invisible person, if Su Wan didn't help her, she wouldn't come forward.

Marquis Changwu seemed to be a relatively taciturn person, perhaps because he didn't understand style.Su Wan doesn't know how he treats others, but with her, he has always said very little, maybe he was a little surprised by her change yesterday, so he only said a few more words, but today, he returned to normal.

Even after going to bed, he didn't speak, and just went straight to the point, which made Su Wan feel a little embarrassed.Fortunately, after getting used to it last night, it wasn't too sad. If Su Wan complained of pain, his movements would slow down accordingly, and he would wait until she was not so stiff and tense before moving, which finally made Su Wan feel better.

Generally speaking, it is relatively harmonious.

After finishing it twice, Lord Hou called for hot water again. After taking a bath, Su Wan couldn't keep her eyes open. She lay down on the bed again, and fell asleep as soon as her head touched the pillow.

All night, no communication at all.

Even though the body is already very close, to Su Wan, Marquis Changwu is just a stranger.

"Lu Fu, ask someone to go to the kitchen and tell you to make some more special snacks tomorrow morning, and I will take them away." After going to Mrs. Tai to greet Ann and returning, Su Wan instructed Lu Fu.

Lufu responded and immediately gave orders without asking any further questions.

When Su Wan planned to celebrate Mrs. Hou Tai's birthday in Jinxiang tomorrow, she also stopped by to see her mother and younger brother to see how they were doing.You know, Su Wan'er has been married to the Hou's residence for nearly a year, she only saw her mother and younger brother once when she returned home, and she really misses her.

Now that she has become Su Wan'er, although she dare not say how much she has feelings for them, at least she has to take her own responsibilities.

She remembered that her younger brother Su Wen liked to eat pastries very much, but she was worried about buying them from outside, so she ordered the kitchen to make some specially.

If it was before, Su Wan would be better off doing one thing more than one thing less, and would not bother the kitchen. Now, the situation is slightly different, but she is not afraid that the kitchen will push her back and forth, and fool her with snacks bought outside.

Sure enough, because Lord Hou stayed in her yard for two consecutive days, the kitchen did not neglect her. Early the next morning, Su Wan saw the freshly baked snacks brought by the little girl from the kitchen.

Last night, although Lord Hou didn't continue to stay with Su Wan, he didn't go to the other aunts' place either. Instead, he rested alone in the outer study. Therefore, those who were waiting to see Su Wan's jokes also died down.

When going to Mrs. Tai's courtyard for morning refreshment, Su Wan saw Aunt Wang's increasingly stiff smiling face again. Although she didn't dare to say anything in front of Mrs. Tai, the veil in her hand was about to be crushed.

Even Huo Lingyun, the eldest lady who is always dignified, glanced lightly at Su Wan, as if she was slightly resistant to being favored by her, and felt uncomfortable.

Perhaps in her heart, the mistress of the Hou's Mansion is just her deceased mother, and Su Wan is just the person sent by His Royal Highness to take care of her and her younger brother, not the so-called stepwife of the Hou's Mansion. She just needs to be at ease. It's good to be a puppet lady, now that Su Wan is being favored, it's obviously a bit of a foul.

Mrs. Tai took a look at Su Wan, and saw that she was wearing the silver-red gold-woven gold-twig patterned beanie and the green lotus-colored floor-length skirt that she sent someone to send. Butterfly hairpin inlaid with rubies, red velvet palace flowers, emerald bead curtains on the forehead to wipe the forehead, red gold butterflies on the back of the hair, and a pair of red gold earrings inlaid with rubies on the ears. Beautiful and dignified, delicate and charming.

Mrs. Tai nodded with satisfaction.Su Wan is the daughter-in-law of the Marquis Mansion of Changwu, if she is too shabby to go out, she will lose face to the Marquis Mansion.

But immediately, she frowned and said, "Why didn't you wear the phoenix diamond hairpin that I sent someone the day before yesterday?"

Su Wan smiled lightly, and was about to speak, but the third wife Tao Shi, who heard the quick talk, said: "Old lady, what's wrong with you, you forgot, our eldest wife's order hasn't come down yet, how can you wear this phoenix hairpin? Although, now It is not as strict as before. Even those rich families have many people who secretly wear this phoenix hairpin, and no one cares about it. But this time the eldest wife is going to Jinxiang Hou's mansion, and she will encounter many people. Mrs. Gonghou and Mrs. Guan, it's good if they don't pursue it, if they are pursued, maybe they will cause trouble for our Houfu."

Su Wan looked at Mrs. Tai expectantly, if Mrs. Tai was willing to say something for her, then she would be half or six sure about asking for an imperial order.Moreover, there is no imperial order, and it takes a dwarf to go out to socialize.

It's a pity that Mrs. Tai just nodded slightly, but didn't say anything, and skipped the matter.Su Wan felt a little disappointed, but it was expected.

"You go back and get ready, so go directly to Jinxiang Hou's Mansion. You are a junior, so it's not too late." Mrs. Tai waved her hand and let Su Wan go down.

The carriage has already been prepared and is waiting outside the Chuihua Gate.

Su Wan went out this time with only a big girl, Lu Fu, who was close to her, and there were maids and mothers-in-law who followed the car, as well as some guards from the Hou Mansion. Now she represents the Changwu Marquis Mansion, and the Hou Mansion cannot be weakened. pomp and prestige.

Su Wan walked to the side of the carriage, a girl had already put down the carriage seat, after Su Wan helped Lu Fu into the carriage, Lu Fu also got into the carriage, and the carriage started to move slowly.

The roads in the capital are very smooth, and the carriage does not move fast, so Su Wan didn't feel any discomfort.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, the carriage stopped, and it had already arrived at Jinxiang Hou's Mansion.

Before Su Wan got off the carriage, she could already faintly hear the sound of Sheng Xiao and drum music.

Because Mrs. Jinxiang Hou's wife is not celebrating her birthday this year, there is no big event. I only invited some aristocratic families who are close friends with the Jinxiang Hou's mansion, but those who did not come to celebrate their birthday in person also sent birthday gifts.

In order to show his filial piety, Marquis of Jinxiang, Fu Ming still made the birthday party lively and lively. Marquis of Jinxiang personally received the male guests in the outer courtyard, while the wife of Marquis of Jinxiang, Mrs. Liao, stood at the second gate to receive orders from all the guests. Female dependents.
