The little daughter-in-law of the palace

Chapter 244
Wu Sumei couldn't help turning her head to look over, and saw a couple of newcomers walking side by side in the bleak morning light in the cold winter. The tall and handsome man was the one who most resembled Cheng Jingrong among the three brothers of the Cheng family, but he was even more outstanding than Cheng Jingrong. His indifferent face was softened by the wife beside him, like ice being melted by the sun.The woman beside him was wearing a brocade gown embroidered with plum blossoms in red, and a ruby-encrusted bracelet on her head. There were not many jewelry on her black and thick bun, but everything was rare and good. She is indeed the jewel in the palm of Marquis Yunyang, and what is even more enviable is her alluring beauty. Wu Sumei quietly looked at her husband, not surprised to see amazement in his eyes.

Wu Sumei lowered her eyes sadly.Being able to marry Cheng Duo is because she has climbed a high branch, but in her husband's heart, he must be low to marry her, right?They were both cousins ​​marrying cousins, and she couldn't compare to this younger brother and sister in appearance and status. Comparing the two, it's no wonder that her husband went crazy again last night, drunk, and tossed her several times in one night.

The dowry mother persuaded her, saying that most men want to like her, but Wu Sumei knows very well that Cheng Duo doesn't like her, and he just wants to have a heir from the heir as soon as possible, so as to consolidate his status as the eldest son.The succession of the title in this dynasty is based on the principle of the eldest son, but the eldest son has no heirs for a long time. Whether he is the heir of the stepbrother or whether he will give up the title depends on Cheng Jingrong's plan...

With the attitude of Prince Jing's Mansion towards her husband, at that time, Chu Han must be dissatisfied with adopting Cheng Yu's son, and she has the support of the Marquis of Yunyang, so it probably won't work.Will Cheng Jingrong be willing to adopt Brother Jun's son?If the adoption fails, the position of the son of the world is very likely to be left behind...

So Wu Sumei understood Cheng Duo's urgency, and she was willing to cooperate with him. She hoped for an heir more than her husband.

The sound of footsteps entered the main room, Wu Sumei regained her senses and forced herself to look happy.

"Let's serve tea first." Cheng Jingrong ordered the servant girl.

The two little maids immediately placed the four futons that had been prepared earlier in front of Cheng Jingrong and Mrs. Xie, and brought over tea.

"Father drinks tea." After Cheng Yujing finished the tea, Hanzhu also handed over the tea bowl.

Cheng Jingrong didn't drink tea right away, he stared at his daughter-in-law twice, and solemnly warned: "Since you are married to Huaibi, you will be the daughter-in-law of our Cheng family from now on, and you must abide by the rules of the palace. The bad habits brought here. In addition to taking care of Huaibi, you must also respect your mother and elder sister-in-law, and take care of your younger siblings, remember?"

Cheng Yu's eyes suddenly turned cold, but Han Zhu said before he could speak: "Daughter-in-law, remember."

She married to Cheng Jingrong, so what if he said a few words, there is no need to push back. I have to care about everything, and I am the one who is angry.

She didn't mind, Cheng Yu didn't like to listen, so he raised his eyes and asked, "I don't know where my father heard that my cousin has bad habits? Before marrying me, my cousin learned the rules in the palace for a month, and the emperor praised her in the marriage decree." De Rong is outstanding, what my father said just now, could it be that he questioned the emperor's vision of people?"

His voice was cold and aggressive, and the atmosphere in the hall suddenly froze.

Cheng Jingrong looked at his son who repeatedly provoked him, and said with a sneer, "Are you trying to suppress me with an imperial decree? You mean, you are a marriage bestowed by the emperor, so I, a father, is not qualified to control you, right?"

Cheng Yu calmly replied: "I just remind my father not to trust the villain's slander."

The father and son asked and answered, and the atmosphere became even more tense. Seeing that Cheng Jingrong was about to lose his temper, Mrs. Xie lowered her eyes and watched from the sidelines. Cheng Lan looked at the second sister-in-law who was kneeling there with a pale face, and got up to persuade: "Second brother, the father is just talking casually." Let me tell you, don't take it seriously, the second sister-in-law is gentle and generous, we all know it. Father, don't be angry, the second brother values ​​the second sister-in-law, it's just too nervous for a while, it's cold in winter, why don't you drink tea first?"

Cheng Jingrong only had this one daughter, and he was still very fond of him on weekdays. His beloved daughter opened up to smooth things over, but he couldn't bear to look at her face, so he gave his second son a cold look, picked up the tea bowl and took a sip before putting it down.

The little maid serving tea instinctively stood by Xie's side.

Cheng Yu led Hanzhu directly to Cheng Duo and his wife.
