Daughter of General

Chapter 203 Husband and wife
In order to go to bed, Qi Yuzhou and Shen Yulan had a debate match.

Qi Yuzhou insisted that husband and wife must sleep in the same bed.But Shen Yulan firmly insisted that it would be better to separate during the filial piety.

But the result of the debate was somewhat speechless——

Seeing that Shen Yulan couldn't talk about it, Qi Yuzhou actually acted helplessly, looked at Shen Yulan helplessly, and asked her rather deliberately pretending to be pitiful: "Okay, but we only have this bed in our house. If you don't sleep here, I will sleep here." where?"

Shen Yulan snorted softly: "Study and guest courtyard are both acceptable. If you don't have a bed, make do with it for the night, and we'll go buy it as soon as the market opens tomorrow!"

Qi Yuzhou saw that this trick was not working, so he hurriedly changed another trick, and directly sternly said, "I have to sleep on the bed, otherwise I won't be able to sleep. Since it's just make do, I'll make do with it here for one night, and we'll talk about it tomorrow!" , sitting directly on the bed with a big thorn on the one hand, and even raised Erlang's legs leisurely.

Shen Yulan only felt itchy teeth, but there was nothing she could do about it—there was nothing she could do about it, she was taking advantage of it.

So in the end she had no choice but to say angrily: "Okay, then you can sleep here, I'll go to another room—"

"It seems that you really want to make me unable to lift my head." Qi Yuzhou snorted coldly, his face darkened again. "Even if you keep your filial piety, but look at who apart from the one who has a bad relationship, who split the bed as soon as they got married? Isn't that a joke?"

So Shen Yulan couldn't take the foot that had just been raised, and finally retracted it silently, standing where heaven and man were fighting—she also knew that Qi Yuzhou would indeed lose face if he really spread the news.It's also a joke.He didn't know how many things he did for his face, so it's impossible for her to be so heartless.Of course, after he said such a thing, she really couldn't bear it anymore.

"We are husband and wife, husband and wife!" Seeing that what he said had an effect, Qi Yuzhou quickly added fuel to the fire.

So Shen Yulan hesitated even more.

Qi Yuzhou stared at Shen Yulan closely, waiting for her to express her opinion.That look, as if facing a big enemy.

In the end, Shen Yulan was still overwhelmed by the sentence "husband and wife" - there is no way, who made them husband and wife? !Lying in the same bed is really an unusual thing in the eyes of everyone!

Therefore, Qi Yuzhou completely won the small dispute this time.

However, Shen Yulan pouted and added: "I like to roll the quilt in the middle of the night, so let's cover it separately."

Qi Yuzhou grinned, "It doesn't matter." Anyway, just don't go out to sleep.

In fact, he is a bit naive about this matter - you know, this outsider knows that they sleep in the same bed, so they will naturally feel that their husband and wife have a good relationship.When the time comes, what Gu Meng, Chang Yu and others will know about it, and they will give up their hearts as soon as possible.Of course, he was also doing it for the good of Shen Yulan.Otherwise, what's the point of letting outsiders talk about it?The most important thing is that lying on the same bed, the husband and wife must gradually become intimate, and they will not be unfamiliar.A year from now, it will become more natural at some point.

Seeing him smiling like that, Shen Yulan immediately understood - this man just pretended to be unhappy!Otherwise, how could I laugh so quickly!But at this time she had already let go, and naturally it was impossible to go back on her word.At the moment, there is really no other way but to stare fiercely.

Seeing that the two of them had finally reached a conclusion in their argument, the girls outside rushed to fetch water to wash and make their beds.

Shen Yulan sat on the bed reluctantly, watched Qi Yuzhou finish washing up happily, and then sat down next to her again.Although knowing that the two are husband and wife, even if they get closer, it's only natural, but when it comes to this point, my heart is still a little flustered.Puff puff jumping a little fast.

But on the surface, she insisted on pretending to be calm, kicked off her shoes and got inside, then wrapped herself in a quilt.

Qi Yuzhou looked at her strangely, and after hesitating for a while, he reminded in a low voice; "Don't you need to take off your coat?"

Only then did Shen Yulan realize that she hadn't taken off her clothes, and she felt a little embarrassed.Fortunately, Qi Yuzhou didn't show anything else, otherwise she would have died of shame and anger - he must have seen her flustered and uncomfortable.

It's just that she was too embarrassed to do it and take it off, so she simply threw out the coat quickly under the quilt for the girl to hang up, and then turned her back and stopped looking at Qi Yuzhou.

Qi Yuzhou didn't ask the girl to serve him, but instead ordered: "There is no need to keep watch at night. Come and serve Madam in the morning."

Shen Yulan didn't have to be served by others, so she acquiesced to his words.On the contrary, he couldn't help thinking—maybe he used to be in the temple and did everything by himself, so it's not surprising that he wasn't used to it.

Qi Yuzhou removed his clothes, hung up the lights and blew up the lamp, then went to bed and dragged his quilt to cover it.

It was only for a while, and naturally both of them couldn't fall asleep, but neither spoke.So the house was very quiet, except for the sound of breathing, there was only the occasional chirping of night birds and insects in the distance.

Under such tranquility, Shen Yulan was uncomfortable from the beginning, but gradually calmed down, and drowsiness gradually emerged.In the end, I don't know when, and I fell asleep.As for when Qi Yuzhou fell asleep, she didn't even know.

When she woke up the next day, she wondered for a while—why didn't she feel that she was not used to falling asleep?This sudden change of bed and place, it stands to reason that I am not used to it anyway.Most importantly, there is one more person next to him!
In the end, she attributed the reason to the fact that Qi Yuzhou slept very honestly—it was honest, because what he was lying down last night was the same when he woke up in the morning, and he didn't even turn over.

The most embarrassing time has passed, so when I woke up the next day, with Shen Yulan's concentration, I couldn't see anything, but naturally smiled at Qi Yuzhou: "Morning."

This smile seemed to have suppressed Qi Yuzhou, and he was stunned for a long time before he recovered.

The two had breakfast together again - it was time for Qi Yuzhou to go out.

You know, he has been off duty for several days because of his marriage.So it's time to check it out today.

Shen Yulan felt that it should be taken for granted, and she wouldn't feel reluctant to part with it—it's only natural for a man to make money to support his family, and to hang around at home every day is a sign of no future.

But even though Qi Yuzhou was reluctant, he was also a little worried.So before he went out, he ordered several times: "No matter what, don't go out alone, just stay at home."

Shen Yulan knew that he was afraid that she would be in danger when she went out, and that she cared about her, so she didn't feel impatient and kept listening with a smile on her face.Once again, he promised to follow his will.Of course, she didn't intend to be obedient, after all, what happened yesterday also frightened her.

Today she plans to look at the house at home, and then look at the account book, and then gather the people in the house to give a few words about the majesty of Shushu as the mistress.

So after Qi Yuzhou went out, she called the inner and outer stewards—the outer courtyard managed by the outer steward and some people from the house greeted and sent them there, while the inner courtyard was in charge of the stalls in the inner courtyard and took care of the mistress.Generally speaking, the housekeepers are all men, and they hang around with the master.The housekeepers are generally trusted by the hostess, and they are good-looking, knowledgeable and capable daughter-in-laws.

Qi Yuzhou wanted to save his worries, so the internal and external housekeepers were a couple.

Shen Yulan didn't plan to change either - there were not many people around her, and they were all girls.Therefore, if the other party is sensitive and reliable in doing things, she will not move.

Both of them saluted Shen Yulan in unison.Because the housekeeper's surname was Zeng, and he was a little older, Shen Yulan respectfully called the couple Uncle Zeng and Aunt Zeng.

Uncle Zeng kept his head down and didn't look up. He was a man after all.It seems that he knows etiquette very well.

Aunt Zeng was also extremely respectful.

Shen Yulan asked some questions - all about the operation, expenditure, population, etc. of the mansion.The two answered one by one, and they didn't play tricks, they spoke clearly and plainly.

She just nodded secretly in her heart - this time, Qi Yuzhou chose the right person.It's honest and usable.

But now the population in the mansion is really simple, so there are not many servants.It was just enough, and there was not a single one who sneaked away.Of course, it doesn't look so grand - in the big family's house, many good-looking girls are bought not for doing work, but for looking good, or to accompany the host's family to amuse them.

Aunt Zeng thought that Shen Yulan felt that there were fewer people, so she asked if she wanted to call the matchmaker over.

Shen Yulan shook her head and refused - there are many people, so there are many right and wrong.Therefore, she does not intend to add more useless people.

Afterwards, she asked several stewards in the yard to come over and ask questions one by one, so she got to know her better and didn't bother any more.In fact, with such a small population, she is not afraid of having anything to worry about.To be honest, she felt that her new home was very good: compared to the Shen's home, it was much simpler.After all, she and Qi Yuzhou are the only masters in the mansion, and there is nothing to argue about, so naturally the servants are honest.

Before the sun was too high, Shen Yulan simply took a stroll around the garden again - the garden is not big, but it is exquisite and has everything.Some fruit trees were also planted.For example, those who can see flowers and eat fruits, peaches, plums, apricots, etc., and also found a grape trellis.I don't know when it was built, but the four vines are almost as thick as my arms.The densely packed ones lie on the shelf, and the shade is as cool as standing under the house.

Because of the season, small bunches of grapes can be seen on the vines at this time, and each green grape bead is the size of a little finger.

Shen Yulan stood under the shelf watching, but couldn't help but think of the time when the grapes were ripe - wouldn't the purple grapes hang down the shelf like this, wouldn't it be pleasing to the eye?Not to mention being able to watch it, the most important thing is that it can be eaten.

Naturally, she is not short of this kind of fruit, but she really thinks that this grape trellis is very good.It is practical and beautiful.And those fruit trees.It does not ask for the fruit, but when it is ripe, it is also an extremely elegant thing to invite people to appreciate the fruit.What's more, the ones grown at home and the ones brought in from outside have a different feeling.

Seeing that Shen Yulan was looking up at the grapes and couldn't look away, the following servant woman thought that Shen Yulan wanted to eat grapes, so she came up with a smile and said, "It is said that the four varieties of these grapes are all different. The late ripe ones and the green ones can be eaten. It’s a pity that it’s too early to ripen now. However, there are raisins sent from far away in the mansion, and they were rewarded by the palace. Madam wants to eat slaves, so that’s it. Go get it."
