Embarrassing for the bride

Chapter 8

Early the next morning, Yuzhi heard someone calling her in a daze: "Young Mistress, it's time to get up."

She sat up in a jerk, and hurriedly lifted the quilt to get out of bed. Seeing that Wen Zhaoling was still asleep, she had to carefully pass him and sit on the edge of the bed, put on her shoes, and went to the dressing table to take the magpie buds that she had prepared for yesterday. Put on the clothes she prepared.It was a water-red skirt, sober and festive.

The person outside the door called again: "Eldest young mistress, it's time to get up."

Only then did Yu Zhi realize that the voice was not Que Ya'er, it sounded a little cold, and she didn't know which maid it was.She turned her head and glanced at Wen Zhaoling who was still asleep, straightened her hair casually, walked to the door of the outer room and opened it.Standing at the door was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old servant girl, with a slim figure and a pretty face, but she was pretty.She didn't lower her eyebrows like other maids, but first glanced up and down at Yuzhi, and then saluted her slowly: "Fu Qin has met the eldest young lady."

"Fuqin?" Yuzhi was a little puzzled, "Why are you here to serve? Where's Queyaer?"

Fuqin seemed a little displeased when she heard this, she pursed her lips, "Returning to the young lady, Fuqin is the maid in the wife's room, and has always served the young master."

Yuzhi showed a dazed look, so she didn't come to serve her.She smiled, "So that's how it is. The eldest young master hasn't got up yet, so you can call Que Ya'er for me." Since she didn't come to serve her, she asked her own people to serve her.

When Fuqin heard that Wen Zhaoling hadn't got up yet, her displeasure became even more serious, and she ignored her orders at all, "The eldest young mistress seems to have forgotten Madam's instructions, and the young master usually won't wake up so late."

Hearing her reproachful words, Yuzhi immediately understood that this Fuqin was actually sent by her mother-in-law to supervise her.Now that Wen Zhaoling hadn't got up yet, he just happened to be caught showing up.Presumably the misunderstanding last night was about to be cleared up.

She didn't expect this servant girl to dare to talk to her like that. She must be very favored in front of Mrs. Wen.Naturally, Yuzhi couldn't swallow her anger like this, otherwise she wouldn't be able to get on her head in the future, but beating a dog still depends on the owner, and she can't say too much.She had no choice but to say something indifferent: "I will tell my mother about the matter of the young master. You can go to work. From now on, the young master will be served by me personally. You don't have to come every day."

Fuqin's face suddenly changed, and there was a trace of unwillingness in his eyes.

"Yuzhi, who is outside?"

Yuzhi heard Wen Zhaoling's voice, turned around and entered the room.Seeing that he has sat up and is about to get out of bed.She quickly took the clothes she had prepared and walked forward, "It's nothing, it's Fuqin, I sent her away."

Wen Zhaoling let her help him put on his clothes, and said with a smile: "She is the person next to my mother, and she has been taking care of my daily life in the past."

Yuzhi glanced at him, "I will take good care of you in the future." She added in her heart: This is why your mother asked you to marry me.

Wen Zhaoling smiled and held her hand, "Then there will be Lao Yuzhi." He looked up and down at her attire, "You look even better in this dress today."

Yuzhi was a little embarrassed at once, this person didn't praise her for her good looks on their wedding night, but only now remembered to say such a sentence.

At this time, the two of them were quite sweet like newlyweds, but Fuqin's voice came from outside again: "Please go and greet Mrs. Tai Furen."

Yuzhi came back to her senses, and quickly called Que Ya'er, she hadn't combed her hair yet.But then she remembered another thing, and asked Wen Zhaoling strangely: "Why am I the only one to say hello?"

The voice of these words was a little higher, and before Wen Zhaoling could answer, Fuqin replied outside: "Responding to the words of the young mistress, Madam said that the young master is not in good health, please let the young mistress go alone."

Yuzhi understood, this must be Mrs. Wen showing her face, presumably because of what happened last night.She calmly helped Wen Zhaoling straighten her clothes, and sat down at the dressing table to comb her hair.Wen Zhaoling thought she was angry, walked behind her, put his hand on her shoulder and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Yuzhi, I will go with you."

Yuzhi shook her head, "I'll go by myself, if you go with me, mother-in-law will blame you."

Wen Zhaoling sighed, "It's true, my mother's temperament has always been like this, and I have no choice but to wrong Yuzhi you."

Yuzhi pursed her lips, thinking that he would persevere. At first, he thought he was gentle, but it seemed that he was too gentle. He seemed to be resigned to his mother. From last night to now, Yuzhi has intuitively Noticing this.

It seems that no one is perfect, and sometimes there are advantages and disadvantages.

Que Ya'er came in with the wash water, bowed to Wen Zhaoling and Yuzhi, put down the washbasin in her hand, and came over to help Yuzhi comb her hair.

Yuzhi's hair was tied up into a woman's bun, and a simple hosta was inserted on her head, making her look even more elegant.

Que Ya'er took care of Wen Zhaoling to wash up, and then waited for Yuzhi to wash up. After finishing all these tasks, Yuzhi glanced at Wen Zhaoling and said intentionally or unintentionally, "Boyu, then I'll go pay my respects."

Wen Zhaoling straightened his clothes with lowered eyes, and said softly "um", without even raising his head.

Yuzhi turned around and walked out the door with some disappointment, even Que Ya'er gave him a reproachful look.

After Yuzhi left, Wen Zhaoling raised his eyes slowly, with an ambiguous smile on his mouth, and sighed softly: "Dong Yuzhi, you don't remember me..."

Yu Zhi suddenly sneezed while walking outside, and muttered in a low voice: "Who is talking about me?"

Fuqin had already left, maybe she had reported the news first.Yuzhi walked quickly with Que Ya'er, for fear of getting caught if she was late.What happened last night has been recorded by Mrs. Wen, and now if there is any mistake, it will be troublesome.

Yuzhi actually doesn't know the way, but fortunately Que Yaer is clever, she got up early to find the way, and now she can lead Yuzhi to the main house where Mrs. Tai lives.Yuzhi walked around the huge courtyard for a long time, feeling dizzy.She suddenly felt that Fuqin might have taken the first step on purpose, just not to lead the way for her, a road idiot.

That's right, she Dong Yuzhi is a road idiot.

Yu Zhi followed Que Ya'er without daring to lose a step, and after going through countless gates, she stopped in front of a yard.Que Ya'er told her that this was the yard where Mrs. Tai lived.Yuzhi entered the yard, and when she was about to reach the door, she did not forget to whisper to Que Ya'er: "You must not leave, otherwise I won't be able to go back later."

Que Ya'er nodded, "I know, Miss, don't worry, go in."

Yuzhi felt relieved and walked in the door.Sitting in the middle of the front of the hall is an old lady with silver hair, kind-hearted, and looks very amiable, she must be Mrs. Tai.Sitting on the lower left is Mrs. Wen. This is actually the first time Yuzhi has seen her face. Mrs. Wen is about forty, well maintained, with white skin and red lips, but her expression is cold, and she seems not easy to get close to.Standing behind her was Fuqin, staring at her closely.

Yuzhi's eyes glanced at the row of chairs on the right, where three people were sitting, the first seat was a man in his early twenties, wearing a light green robe, who looked somewhat similar to Wen Zhaoling, but with a pair of peach blossom eyes Very restless, glance at Yuzhi from time to time, with a frivolous attitude.Sitting next to him was a woman in light yellow clothes, with a pleasing round face and round eyes, very cute, but she looked at Yu Zhi with an unfriendly expression.

After a little thought in Yuzhi's mind, she knew the identities of these two people. They must be Wen Zhaoye, the second young master of the Wen family, and Jin Shi, the second young wife.She looked at the woman in the third position again. The woman had a gentle expression and looked somewhat similar to Wen Zhaoling.She was estimated to be eighteen or nineteen years old, and she was wearing plain white printed clothes.A pretty melon-seeded face with a pair of smart phoenix eyes, with a kind of captivating beauty, but with a dignified expression, adding a touch of stability.Presumably this is the widowed Third Young Mistress Li.

This observation and thinking was completed in an instant, Yuzhi took a few steps forward, and Mrs. Chao Tai bowed her body, "The granddaughter-in-law has come to pay her respects to grandma."

"Okay, okay." Mrs. Tai smiled from ear to ear.

Seeing that Mrs. Tai is so approachable, Yuzhi feels good in her heart.The person in front of her reminded her of those ordinary grandparents and grandchildren she had seen in temples, those kind old people who brought their grandchildren to offer incense, and would laugh for a long time when they heard "grandma" from time to time.

At the moment when Yuzhi was in a daze, a nanny standing beside Mrs. Tai stepped forward and put a cushion on the ground, and said to her with a smile, "Please give Mrs. Tai some tea for grandson-in-law."

Yuzhi came back to her senses, quickly knelt down on the cushion, took the teacup she handed over, raised it high above her head and offered it up, "Grandma, please have some tea."

When she said this, she was taken aback for a moment, why did she accidentally call grandma?
Several people at the scene were also stunned, and then a voice came over with sarcasm: "Sister-in-law is really special. Everyone in the whole family is called Mrs. Tai or grandma. When you come to your place, you will become grandma directly. Others don't." Knowing that, you think our Wen family is some kind of common people. Or is it that the sister-in-law has been in the nunnery for a long time, and she no longer knows the proper etiquette?"

Yuzhi squinted her eyes slightly and looked over, it turned out to be the Second Young Mistress Jin.She pursed her lips, and it seemed that what she was worried about had come true, and she was finding fault.
