Just look at the meticulousness of the two girls beside Madame, you can get a glimpse of one or two.

Although she arrived in a new environment, the new lady did not have the slightest cowardice and cowering, but was not in a hurry, as if she had lived here for a long time. Especially that smiling face, anyone who sees it can't help but like it. But if you have a wooden expression, you can also frighten people, and the only thing that can make Mama Hua feel bad is that the new lady is too thin.

I secretly thought that in the future, she would have to watch Madame's diet and let Madame eat more.

After Xu Jiayi was completely washed and Cuiyun sorted out her hair and clothes, Mama Hua had a free voice and said, "Madam, are you hungry, do you want to eat?" ”

At this time, it was already past the time to eat, Xu Jiayi hadn't even drunk saliva all day until now, she was still hungry, but she was already hungry at this time, but she didn't feel hungry, just thinking that she didn't need to bother, she heard that Xiangqiao had already made a decision for her first, and replied loudly, "Then it's troublesome Mama Hua." ”

Madame had not eaten all day, and her body could not stand it.

Mama Hua smiled and said continuously, "Miss Xiangqiao, don't say such things in the future, they are all serving Mrs., what trouble is not troublesome, you are torturing the slave maid if you say this." The slave went and talked to the kitchen and asked them to make some supper. ”

Taking advantage of this gap, a few little maids outside the door immediately went to the cubicle to prepare the bath barrel, added several buckets of hot water into it, and then withdrew and said to Xu Jiayi that Mrs. can prepare to bathe and change clothes.

After a comfortable bath and dinner, Xu Jiayi was so sleepy that she yawned and went to bed. Before going to bed, he specially told Cuiyun and Yuanxiang that Ming'er would have to wake her up early in the morning.

The new daughter-in-law needs to be solemn and appropriate to see her in-laws on the first day, although Chu Changfeng is not at home, she, as a daughter-in-law, has to go to see her parents-in-law.

Xu Jiayi changed into a red brocade dress embroidered with gold and silver silk Luan Bird Chaofeng, and the pearl hairpin and earrings were all of the same color, such a strong red is not much better than the wedding dress she wore yesterday, and the whole person is bright and moving, delicate. When Mama Hua saw it for the first time, she only felt her heart tremble, this new lady was really beautiful, she was the most beautiful person she had ever seen, and she would like it if she saw it.

Because Chu Changfeng didn't talk about her affairs in Yanjing City after Chu Changfeng returned to the border pass, Mama Hua didn't know that Chu Changfeng had already seen Xu Jiayi many times. I don't even know that Xu Jiayi still has to call Chu Changfeng "Uncle Cousin".

I didn't even have time to use breakfast, and after cleaning up, Xu Jiayi was led by Mama Hua to the main hall to meet the elders of the Anping Hou Mansion.

In the yard, only the maid who packed her luggage was left, so that Xiangqiao watched from the sidelines and didn't ask someone to break things, and then compared it according to the record before going out at that time, to see if there was anything missing, and to take out everything that should be placed out and put it away.

When she was on the way, Mama Hua had already begun to introduce the personnel of the Anping Marquis Mansion to Xu Jiayi, and she should have told her wife about these things yesterday, but she didn't mention it when she saw that her wife was too tired.

The personnel of the Anping Marquis Mansion are simple, and there are only three masters of the Eight Classics, namely the old lady Chu and the old lady Chu and Chu Changfeng. Now that Xu Jiayi is married and has entered the house, there is another her. The only ones Xu Jiayi wants to see today are these two elders in the direct line, and the others are also relatives of the Anping Marquis Mansion. Although these side relatives are going to visit today, they don't need to live in one place in the future, and they don't need to pay special attention to it.

What's more, this is just a matter of recognizing people first.

I didn't worry much about the other Xu Jiayi, the only thing Xu Jiayi was worried about was whether her mother-in-law would get along well. I heard that the most difficult relationship after marriage is the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and she has not heard much about those evil mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law in Yanjing City. However, the people at the border are simple-minded and act freely, so they shouldn't be like those people in Yanjing City, right?

Xu Jiayi secretly thought in her heart, but she thought about the origin of her mother-in-law.

The old lady Chu's maiden name is Chu Min, and she is not the original wife of the old lady Chu, but the stepfamily. After Chu Min died of his sister Chu Yun in childbirth, in order to take care of the bloodline left by his sister, that is, Chu Changfeng, he invited himself to marry into the Chu Mansion as a continuation, and even promised that he would not give birth to his own children after marrying into the mansion, and would treat Chu Changfeng as his own.

Although it is to take care of his nephew on the surface, it is unknown what it is secretly for. However, I have to say that Mrs. Chu did the first thing and did not have children of her own.

Old lady Chu is a big man and a military general, and he naturally doesn't know anything about raising a newborn child, so for the sake of his son, he married Chu Min according to the will of the Yue family.

It's just that he doesn't like Chu Min, he likes Chu Yun, his deceased original wife.

Xu Jiayi originally thought that even if Old Lady Chu didn't like the current Old Lady Chu, the two should at least respect each other. But when she learned from Mama Hua that Old Lady Chu lived in the outer courtyard and Mrs. Chu lived in Rongyang Hall in the inner courtyard, Xu Jiayi felt that maybe the relationship between her two in-laws was even worse than she imagined.

"There is also a cousin in the house, who is the old lady's maiden niece, her parents died early, and the old lady felt sorry for her and raised her by her side. I don't know if my cousin is not in the main hall today. However, when the lady is free, the cousin should come to the maple garden to meet the lady. ”

After Mama Hua finished introducing her, she suddenly remembered something and said aloud, "Speaking of which, the cousin girl and Mrs. are also quite related, and the cousin is also surnamed Xu, and her single name is the word 'Yao'." ”

Xu Jiayi nodded thoughtfully, she wanted to ask what the relationship between this cousin girl and Chu Changfeng was, but she glanced sideways at Mama Hua's chattering mouth and swallowed the words back.

"Madam, there is a sentence that the slave knows not to say, but she still wants to tell Madame a word." Mama Hua looked embarrassed, and only continued to speak out under Xu Jiayi's instructions, "The old lady likes her cousin very much and wants to keep her by her side." My cousin is also very close to the son......"

"I see." Xu Jiayi responded, and she knew a little in her heart.

Although Mama Hua said something vague, it didn't prevent her from understanding what she meant. I'm afraid that this is not to be kept by my side, but to match Chu Changfeng and that cousin.

The group set off from Fengyuan and walked for about a quarter of an hour to reach their destination. Xu Jiayi and the others had just stepped into the courtyard of the main hall, and they saw a clever maid going in first.

Xu Jiayi looked at it from a distance and found that it was already full of people, talking and laughing, and her voice was a little noisy, and she couldn't hear it clearly. There was an old couple sitting at the top, Xu Jiayi touched that this was her father-in-law, Master Chu and Mrs. Chu.

Marquis Chu's body was seriously injured on the battlefield, although he picked up a life and came back, now he can no longer use swords and swords. Although the body looks quite tough, it also needs to be raised by a good student. This is also the reason why after the war broke out at the border pass, the emperor was in a hurry to send Chu Changfeng back to the border pass.

Although Marquis Chu can make suggestions, he has to go on the field to kill the enemy, and according to his current physical condition, he really can't do it.

As soon as she entered the door, the maid had already set up the futon in advance, and after Xu Jiayi stepped into the door, she blessed everyone first, "Chu Xu's family visited his father, mother, and uncles, and he came late one by one, so that the elders would wait for a long time, and I asked the elders not to be surprised." ”

"Hurry up, we don't have so many rules in the Anping Hou Mansion. Besides, it's still early, and you're not late. Mrs. Chu hurriedly asked someone to help Xu Jiayi up, and said in a greeting voice, "Yanjing City is a long way to get here, and you are tired from traveling all the way, right?" ”

"Not tired."

Old Lady Chu asked a few more questions, Xu Jiayi smiled and replied to Old Lady Chu's words one by one, but in her heart she thought that this father-in-law was indeed as good as her grandmother and eldest princess said, and he was very easy to get along with. However, this old lady Chu seems to be a little hostile to herself, and she has not even said a word to herself from the time she entered the door to the present.

Soon a maid came over with hot tea from behind, Xu Jiayi knew that this was going to give tea to the elders, so she made a gesture to kneel on the futon, but was stopped by the old lady Chu, "Just stand, don't kneel." ”

"Etiquette can't be abolished, and my father can't shirk it."

Seeing Xu Jiayi's insistence, Old Lady Chu smiled and sat on the first place to accept the salute.

Xu Jiayi lowered her eyes, knelt on the futon, and kowtowed respectfully to Mrs. Chu, then turned sideways to take the hot tea handed over by Cuiyun on the side, raised it high above her head and put it in front of Mrs. Chu, and said respectfully, "Daughter-in-law gives tea to my father." ”

"Good, good! Hurry up. ”

After drinking the tea, the old lady Chu gave Xu Jiayi a heavy red envelope and a jade pendant carved from high-quality black jade. When she caught a glimpse of the jade pendant, Xu Jiayi clearly felt that Old Lady Chu's gaze instantly froze, and her gaze towards herself became more and more unkind.

Even though she knew that the significance of this jade pendant might be extraordinary, Xu Jiayi didn't say it directly, but respectfully took it back and handed it to Yuan Xiang behind her. Only then did he kneel down in front of Mrs. Chu again, raised the hot tea and said respectfully, "Give tea to my mother." ”

Mrs. Chu didn't like Xu Jiayi, so she naturally didn't want her to feel good. So he just glanced at the tea cup Xu Jiayi was holding, but he didn't reach out to take it.

Xu Jiayi's eyes flashed slightly, and she quietly changed her fingers that dragged the bottom of the teacup several times before she couldn't help but throw the teacup out directly. Cuiyun and Yuan Xiang were in a hurry, staring at Xu Jiayi's fingertips. Such a hot tea, the edge of the tea cup wall is also very hot, what if the lady's hand is burned.

The two of them were anxious, and they had no good impression of this old lady Chu who met for the first time.
