329 Mingzhu's married life
On the first day of the wedding, I was going to have a tea ceremony.
Mingzhu was sleeping soundly, but she heard Zhiqin's cry outside: "Young lady, it's time to get up and make tea for the old lady." ”
Mingzhu frowned, and after a while remembered that the young lady was calling her. yes, she got married yesterday. Mingzhu was agitated and immediately sat up.
Niu Yanghui smiled and hugged Mingzhu's waist and said, "Don't worry, there is still time, you won't be late." "People have three joys, a long drought and nectar, candle nights in the cave room, and the title of the gold list, and he has two major events in his life in just a few or three months.
Mingzhu looked at Niu Yanghui, thinking about yesterday's events, and his face instantly turned red to the root of his ears. Don't overdo it, take your clothes and put them on yourself, and when you see Niu Yanghui also put on her underwear, Mingzhu shouted to the outside world: "Come in!" ”
Mingzhu noticed that two of the four maids who came in had raw faces, but these two maids looked very ordinary, and they looked well-behaved, so they didn't bother to think about it anymore.
Mingzhu wore a bright red pomegranate summer shirt and a pleated skirt of the same color. Wearing a peony bun, wearing a complete set of five phoenix hairpins, the smallest pearl on the hairpin is the size of a small fingernail, and the largest one is the size of a pigeon's egg. Fortunately, Mingzhu can hold down this set of jewelry, and it is easy to be pressed down by jewelry if it is replaced by ordinary people.
After freshening up, the couple prepared to go to the main hall. As soon as he walked out of the door, Niu Yanghui took Mingzhu's hand. Mingzhu's face was flushed, but he didn't shake off Niu Yanghui's hand.
Bai Yi and Zhiqin both smiled.
Before entering the main hall, Niu Yanghui said: "If you encounter something later, as long as you take care of it, you don't need to endure it." ”
Mingzhu is a little unclear.
When they arrived at the main hall, Lord Niu and Mrs. Niu were already sitting at the top, and there were not many people below, only a beautiful woman wearing lotus lotus clothes, and a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy.
The husband and wife knelt down, and a mother-in-law served tea. Mingzhu held a bowl of hundreds of sons and thousands of grandchildren with a red background, knelt on the ground with a straight waist, and shouted to Lord Niu: "Dad, please drink tea." ”
It's the first time I've seen Mingzhu. Lord Niu was dissatisfied with this marriage at first, but the emperor gave him the marriage, and no matter how dissatisfied he was, he had to make the wedding beautiful. After that, Mingzhu's dowry caused a storm in the city, which made many of his colleagues joke, saying that he married back a daughter-in-law with a golden lump, which made him more and more dissatisfied. This will Lord Niu saw Mingzhu with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, looking not like the rumored domineering, but also took a sip of Mingzhu's tea, and then gave a rich red envelope: "In the future, I want the husband and wife to be harmonious and beautiful, and spread the branches and leaves for the Niu family." ”
Mingzhu accepted the gift with a red face, and then brought tea to Mrs. Niu.
Mrs. Niu took Mingzhu's tea with a smile on her face, and after drinking most of the cup of tea, she handed Mingzhu a pair of red gold twisted silk bracelets she had prepared as a gift: "This is my dowry, and it was your grandmother's dowry that year." I'll pass it on to you today. ”
Mingzhu accepted the gift with both hands and called out sweetly: "Thank you, mother, my daughter-in-law will cherish it." ”
Mrs. Niu listened to the sourness in her eyes, patted Mingzhu's hand, and said softly: "Good boy, Hui'er will be handed over to you in the future." "If Lord Niu is not satisfied with Mingzhu, then Mrs. Niu is a hundred satisfied with Mingzhu. Good background, rich dowry, good looks, and generous, I heard that I helped Mrs. Hou Fu housekeeper in the Hou Mansion, how did Mrs. Niu look at Mingzhu and how satisfied.
Mingzhu has never been a timid and cowardly person, and when she saw Mrs. Niu like this, she also had a good impression: "Mother, my husband and I will honor you well in the future." ”
Mrs. Niu said three good words in a row, and Lord Niu's face was not very good-looking. It's just that his daughter-in-law's family background is too good, and he can't give a face.
Niu Yanghui was very satisfied when he saw this, and pulled Mingzhu to the beautiful woman and said, "Mingzhu, this is Aunt Liu." ”
Mingzhu had heard of Aunt Liu's name for a long time, and now that she was facing each other, she knew that Aunt Liu really lived up to her reputation outside.
Today's Aunt Liu is wearing a pink and purple cardigan summer shirt, a pink and white undershirt, a pink moonlight skirt, and four pairs of hairpins on her head. Although he is nearly thirty years old, he is still crazy and charming.
Mingzhu didn't salute Aunt Liu, but said with a pale face: "Aunt Liu is fine." Mingzhu felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, whose bride would let her aunt come out to see the ceremony, and I don't know what this father-in-law thinks.
Aunt Liu was not affected by Mingzhu's attitude, and still had a standard smile on her face, taking out the gift she had prepared for Mingzhu. Aunt Liu gave Mingzhu a pair of red gold hairpins carved with baby plays, the fat baby face on the baby play pictures is cute and cute, and it is a famous handwriting at a glance, and this carving skill alone is worth more than this gold.
Mingzhu had a sneer on her face, if Aunt Liu was just preparing a gift for her, she could also save two points of face for Aunt Liu, but Aunt Liu's gift was obviously higher than Mrs. Niu's, and a concubine actually wanted to press the lady in front of the new daughter-in-law, I really don't know what to do.
Mingzhu smiled lightly: "Thank you, auntie." After speaking, she made a color towards Zhiqin, and Zhiqin immediately stepped forward to take the red gold hairpin in Aunt Liu's hand.
Seeing this, Aunt Liu couldn't maintain the smile on her face any longer. Aunt Liu has been in the back house for more than ten years, and she has never lost face like today.
Niu Yanghui stood in front of the young man and said, "Mingzhu, this is Yangye. ”
Mingzhu looked at Niu Yanghui's faint demeanor and knew that the relationship between the two brothers was not very good. Mingzhu smiled and took out a prepared multicolored purse, which was a gift for Niu Yangye.
Niu Yangye did not accept Mingzhu's gift, but asked the little guy next to him to take the purse from Mingzhu.
Mingzhu is not stupid, Niu Yangye's behavior is obviously angry for Aunt Liu. Although Mingzhu knew, she still looked at Niu Yanghui with surprise, as if she didn't know what was going on.
Niu Yanghui didn't explain to Mingzhu, but took Mingzhu's hand and walked to the side.
Lord Niu was a little annoyed by his young son's behavior, but this occasion was not the place to reprimand his son, so he coughed and said, "Let's set the meal!" ”
Mingzhu, as a bride, wants to cook on the first day of entering the door. This is the rule, and Mingzhu naturally will not have objections. It's just that when she saw Aunt Liu also sitting on the table eating, her face was not good-looking. Is there any mistake, I was going to let her serve an aunt.
Niu Yanghui looked at Mingzhu's unkind face and knew that she was uncomfortable, but now was not the time to get angry. Niu Yanghui said: "Our family doesn't have so many rules, you can also sit down and eat!" ”
Before Lord Niu said anything, Mrs. Niu said with a smile: "Yes, our family doesn't have so many rules, just let the maid cloth vegetables." ”
Mingzhu sat down, but did not move the chopsticks.
Mrs. Niu asked softly, "Mingzhu, what's wrong?" Is this not to your liking? ”
Mingzhu didn't speak, it wasn't that the meal was unappetizing, but that Aunt Liu was there, and she couldn't eat this meal no matter what.
Niu Yangye sneered: "Dad, sister-in-law's shelf is really big. ”
Lord Niu's face is not very good-looking.
Where is Mingzhu a person who is willing to tolerate it, she just put up with Niu Yangye's snubbing, and now she is not ready to endure it anymore: "I have been in the Hou Mansion for eighteen years, and I have never eaten at the same table with my aunt. "It's not that my aunt can't be served, but this has to be approved by the housewife, and Aunt Liu's behavior is that she doesn't take Mrs. Niu in her eyes at all.
When Aunt Liu heard this, she immediately stood up and said, "It's the concubine who has overstepped." When he said this, his eyes were still red.
Niu Yangye's face turned pale: "My aunt gave birth to me, and with this, my aunt is qualified to sit down and eat." "This woman is not a good thing to look at, and she dares to face her aunt in front of her.
Mingzhu didn't bother to quarrel with Niu Yangye at all, she just looked at Master Niu. If Master Niu dared to say that this was the rule of the Niu family, Mingzhu would not be polite to him.
Lord Niu was annoyed, he knew that this Luo was not a good one, and he caused so many things as soon as he entered the door. Lord Niu had a cold face at the moment: "You are the new daughter-in-law, where are there so many words." ”
When Master Niu lowered his face, he was full of aura, and if it was an ordinary person, he would definitely not be able to stand it. It's a pity that Mingzhu is not in this case, Mingzhu straightened up after listening to Master Niu's words and said: "Father, I don't want to go out to socialize in the future, and make people laugh at me for being on an equal footing with my aunt." As long as her husband is on her side, Mingzhu is not afraid of offending her father-in-law at all.
Master Niu stared at Niu Yanghui and said coldly, "You still don't care about your daughter-in-law?"
Niu Yanghui put down the chopsticks in his hand and said lightly: "I don't think there's anything wrong with Mingzhu!" "The Liu family has been in the backyard for more than ten years, and it is time to end.
Master Niu was so angry that his face turned red, and he stared at Mrs. Niu and said, "You gave birth to a good son." ”
Mrs. Niu lowered her head and did not speak.
Master Niu threw the chopsticks at the moment, what to eat, and he was full before he ate. After throwing the chopsticks, Niu walked out.
Mingzhu didn't care about Master Niu's attitude at all. Niu Yanghui said to Mrs. Niu, who was a little uneasy: "Mother, you don't like to eat this thing, let the kitchen make a new one and send it to your yard." Niu Yanghui has long been accustomed to Master Niu, so he is majestic at home, and he really spreads this out, and the first thing who has no face is Master Niu.
Aunt Liu stared at Mingzhu's back, and her nails were pinched into the flesh. She knew that Roche was difficult to deal with, but she didn't expect Roche to slap him in the face on the first day he entered the door.
The kitchen staff was still efficient, and soon a breakfast was delivered.
Mingzhu accompanied Niu Yanghui to serve Mrs. Niu for breakfast, and then returned to his yard. When he arrived at his house, Mingzhu asked, "Husband, if I do this today, will it make the master angry with you?" "Mingzhu is not afraid of Master Niu, but he is afraid that he will not be good to Niu Yanghui.
Niu Yanghui smiled and said, "No." I didn't marry you to make you angry. But you have to be ready, after the three dynasties return to the door, you will take over the housekeeping of the Niu Mansion. "It's not good for men to meddle in the backyard, so he has basically been out of Niufu all these years. But now it's different, her wife is the eldest lady of the Niu family, and she can be justifiably a housekeeper.
Mingzhu manages the affairs of the Hou Mansion in an orderly manner, and the inner courtyard of the Niu Mansion will definitely not be difficult for her. It's just that Mingzhu is a little worried: "Then Aunt Liu can willingly hand over the rights in her hands?" ”
Niu Yanghui chuckled, "I'll let her hand it over." "Before, his mother was in the Buddhist hall, and there was no one in charge in the backyard, so there was no way to let Aunt Liu take charge of the middle feed, but now that his wife has passed the door, how can he still let a concubine be in charge. Unless his father is not afraid of impeachment by the imperial history, there must not be half a word.
Niu Yanghui looked at the "Sending the Child Guanyin Picture" at the bedside, and asked with a smile: "You hung this painting yesterday, right?" ”
Mingzhu's face turned red again, and as soon as she got married, she hung a picture of Guanyin sending her son, as if she was too eager.
Niu Yanghui laughed and said, "Who drew this?" Really well drawn? "When you get married, you are naturally going to spread out. It's just that Niu Yanghui didn't expect that on the night of the wedding, the picture of Guanyin would be hung.
Mingzhu said with some embarrassment: "This is what Yueyao painted for me." For this reason, Yueyao also fasted for a month, reciting the "Sending the Child Sutra" a thousand times in front of this painting. Yueyao told me that I would hang it on the head of the bed on my wedding night, saying that this would work, so I hung it up last night. Although she was a little embarrassed, she was still very moved by Yueyao's heart.
Niu Yanghui held Mingzhu in his arms and whispered to Mingzhu's little ear: "Then let's work hard and strive to give birth to a big fat boy as soon as possible." ”
Mingzhu was buried in Niu Yanghui's arms, unwilling to show his head, too blushing and woody.
