Chapter 108: Change

Chu Xinghuai, the grandfather of the Chu family, was originally from Hedong, and was able to stay in the Hanlin Academy when he was admitted to the Jinshi, and he was able to stay in the Hanlin Academy from the beginning of the editing, and he never let go of the Hanlin Bachelor during the period, so although he had a noble reputation, his family background was really average. The land in the capital is expensive, and it was not easy to place this two-entry courtyard.

The Chu family has only one son and one daughter, so naturally all their hopes are pinned on Chu Yuanli, hoping that one day they will be able to soar into the sky. However, Chu Yuanli's qualifications were mediocre, although he worked hard, he could only barely get middle and upper in the Guozi Prison, so he moved the idea of marrying the Zhang family.

But when she heard that Concubine Chen in the palace praised Qi Ying, Mrs. Chu's mind moved. She felt that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and it was obviously more advantageous to be able to climb to the family business of the Ministry of Officials than to just be his niece and son-in-law. At first, Chu Xinghuai didn't agree, thinking that this was a matter of going back on his word, but the Chu family had always had the final say in Mrs. Chu, so he made the move to propose Qi Ying.

When Mrs. Chu saw Qi Ying's dowry, she was overjoyed, and she was glad that she had made the right choice. There are people above who are good officials, and his son is just around the corner, so he also loves this daughter-in-law very much, and he doesn't even ask her to stand up for the rules.

When Qi Ying returned to Chu's house, it was already time to hold the lamp. She first went to meet her in-laws with Chu Yuanli, and Mrs. Chu asked for warmth, so she urged Qi Ying and his wife to hurry back to their room to rest.

Entering the house, Qi Ying served Chu Yuanli to change clothes, but when her hand just touched Chu Yuanli's shoulder, she was brushed away by him, and Qi Ying was suddenly a little overwhelmed.

may have felt that his performance just now was too abrupt, then Chu Yuanli said:

"You can rest first, don't wait for me, I have to read a little more. After saying that, he didn't care about Qi Ying, and went straight to his study, leaving Qi Ying standing dumbfounded. This is the third day of marriage, he is actually going to the study, why is this happening, is it because someone in his mother's family has annoyed him?

Qi Ying was puzzled, so she had to sullenly ask Xiangluo to take off the hairpin ring for her, change her clothes, and go to rest by herself. But because of Chu Yuanli's attitude at night, Qi Ying tossed and turned, thinking crankily, and couldn't sleep. She comforted herself that Chu Yuanli was just studying hard, and she was too sensitive.

But the situation early the next morning made Qi Ying have to believe that she was not too sensitive. The thing is like this, when she got up in the morning, Qi Ying had to dress up neatly because she was still a bride, so she wore a garnet-red half-arm, with a golden step on her head, and a small ruby falling underneath. She barely slept at night, and her face was a little not good-looking, so Qi Ying asked Xiangluo to help her apply some fat powder.

When Chu Yuanli came in, he couldn't help frowning when he saw Qi Ying dressed up, and then said:

"How can you dress like this, and still apply grease and powder, it's been a few days, it's time to change some homely clothes. Before Qi Ying could come to her senses, Chu Yuanli said again:

"There is also our Chu family's poetry heirloom, you are the new daughter-in-law, your mother is sympathetic to you and did not let you set rules, but you should also know the etiquette and be a little measured. ”

Don't say that Qi Ying couldn't believe it after listening to Chu Yuanli's words. Even her two personal maids, Chunxian and Xiangluo, listened to her uncle, and their eyes were also round. Yesterday, my uncle still cared for Miss, why is it like a different person today.

Chu Yuanli has had his own golden house in the book since elementary school, and Yan Ruyu has his own in the book. I believe that only by studying hard can I hope to get ahead. He was originally very satisfied with Qi Ying, but when he saw the three girls at Zhang's house yesterday, that kind of injustice became troublesome. He put all the emotions of complaining about his mother on Qi Ying, no matter how he looked at Qi Ying, it was not pleasing to the eye, so this scene happened.

Qi Ying didn't want to have an argument with her husband when she was newly married, so she could only change her clothes aggrievedly, insert a plain silver hairpin, and hurriedly follow Chu Yuanli to the upper room. Chu Xinghuai and his wife and Chu Yuanli's sister Chu Lianqiu were already sitting there waiting. They hurriedly stepped forward to pay a visit, and Master Chu was already a little dissatisfied.

"Even if you are newly married, you should have some measure. Mrs. Chu looked at Master Chu's unkind face, so she hurriedly played a round and said:

"There are also young people who are sleepy, so let's eat quickly, it's not good when it's cold. Master Chu stopped pursuing it, and the family went to dinner. When they arrived at the dinner table, ready to serve the Chu couple, Qi Ying didn't dare to sit down, and stood aside to prepare to serve the Chu couple with food. Mrs. Chu says:

"Sit down, there are few people in the family, so you don't need to make rules. Qi Ying hurriedly said:

"Mother-in-law is sympathetic to her daughter-in-law, and daughter-in-law should know etiquette, as the saying goes, 'etiquette cannot be abolished', so let's start making rules from today. Mrs. Chu wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Chu Yuanli,

"Mother, Qi Ying is right, don't say it again. Mrs. Chu looked at her son and didn't say anything more.

In this way, Qi Ying began to make rules for Mrs. Chu every day, and Mrs. Chu never mentioned it again, asking her not to make rules.

After breakfast, Master Chu asked Chu Yuanli to go to the study to inspect his homework, while Qi Ying stayed in Mrs. Chu's room to follow the rules. Mrs. Chu pulled Qi Ying and said:

"This is a newlywed, how can you dress so plainly?" Qi Ying had to reply, having to say:

"My daughter-in-law has been married for a few days, and I just want to serve my mother-in-law well, and it is cheaper to dress like this. ”

"What a good boy. Lian Qiu on the side suddenly said:

"My sister-in-law's new clothes and headgear are so beautiful. It would be a shame if I didn't wear it. Qi Ying didn't understand what this sister-in-law meant, but thinking that she wanted to stay in this house, her sister-in-law would never be offended. So he said:

"I still have some colors there, I haven't been on it, if my sister doesn't dislike it, go back and see if there is anything you like. ”

"Really, great!"

"Qiu'er, how can there be such an impolite person who asks for something from his sister-in-law. ”

"Mother, I don't wear those clothes now, it's a pity to put them away, if there is one Qiu'er likes, it's just right. Qi Ying hurriedly relieved Lian Qiu.

After serving Mrs. Chu's lunch, Qi Ying went back to the house and just wanted to sleep, but Lian Qiu came to the door. Chun Xian and Xiang Luo wanted to block back, but were stopped by Qi Ying.

"No, I promised her in the morning, it's not good to push it this way. ”

"But miss, you didn't sleep all night last night, and you can't bear it like this. ”

"What can a child spend?"

Things were beyond Qi Ying's expectations, Lian Qiu's obsession with clothes and accessories was really fanatical, and for a whole afternoon, he took out Qi Ying's clothes and tried this one, and replaced that one, until Chu Yuanli entered the door, and then reluctantly went out with a large bag of clothes.

Chu Yuanli still had a lukewarm attitude towards Qi Ying, and he rested in the study for three nights in a row. After Mrs. Chu found out, she also secretly complained that Qi Ying couldn't hold her husband's heart, and Qi Ying didn't know what to do, and she washed her face with tears at night.
