Chapter 4: Tea for in-laws

The new daughter-in-law gets up in the morning to serve tea, which is a ritual that has been there since ancient times.

From the time she decided to get married, she told her brother that she would be the general's wife and the daughter-in-law of the general's mansion in the future, and the princess would stay in the palace.

Yan'er put on a cloak for the princess as soon as she stepped out of the room, blocking the oncoming cold wind.

The long corridor of the General's Mansion was decorated with lights, and big happy words were posted all over the place, and the servants began to be busy early.

When the princess and her party stepped into the hall of the front yard for the first time, they saw that the old general Qin Xiaotian, who was supposed to be sitting in the main hall waiting for the tea ceremony, and his wife Dong Yuwan were standing respectfully at the door waiting for her.

"Greetings to the princess, old minister..."

"Don't, don't..."

The situation in front of her made the eleventh princess stunned, and seeing that the two elders were about to give her the gift of a monarch and a minister, she immediately bent her knees to block their movements.

"Amma, Eniang, since you have married into the General's Mansion, you will be your daughter-in-law in the future, how can you do this great gift." The eleventh princess supported Qin Xiaotian, and Shuang'er next to her immediately followed to support Dong Yuwan on the side, and with the pace of the princess, the two elders were both supported back to the main seat in the lobby.

Qin Xiaotian came back to his senses and looked at the princess beside him with an embarrassed face.

He knew what happened last night, Qin Moyan slept in the study, saying that he was drunk and unconscious, but the cave room did not enter the new house at night, and the new daughter-in-law was still Her Royal Highness the Princess, if it reached the emperor, the emperor, or the queen mother, I don't know what to do.

The eleventh princess turned around and walked in front of the two, and the foreshadowing was laid on the ground by Xuan'er for the first time, and when she turned around, she helped the princess to kneel.

This situation made Qin Xiaotian and Dong Yuwan completely stunned, their daughter-in-law was a golden branch and jade leaf, and even the most delicate eleventh princess, they never thought that they would enjoy such a courtesy.

The two old men glanced at each other, and saw surprise and relief in each other's eyes.

But when he thought of his son's behavior, he instantly felt that he owed the princess too much.

"Amma, please have tea." The eleventh princess knelt and handed the prepared tea bowl to Qin Xiaotian.

"Okay, okay." Qin Xiaotian took the tea bowl and immediately lowered his head and took a sip, such a big gift, his forehead was a little sweaty now.

"E-niang, please drink tea." Another tea bowl was also handed to Dong Yuwan.

"Okay." Dong Yuwan got rid of the initial surprise, but now she is much calmer, she smiled, took a sip of tea, and immediately stood up and stretched out her hand to help the princess up, "Quick, quick, it's cold, don't kneel, princess." ”

The eleventh princess looked at her and smiled slightly, and Xuan'er immediately stepped forward to help the princess up from the bedding.

"Amma, Eniang, just call me eleven, everyone calls me that at home."

"Okay, Eleven." At this time, Dong Yuwan saw that the daughter-in-law in front of her was really getting happier and happier, she turned around and picked up a brocade box from the table, "This was passed on to me by your Ama Eniang back then, and only the eldest daughter-in-law was passed on in my Qin family." Now Eniang gives it to you, you are so good to take it. ”

The princess nodded, and when Shuang'er heard this, she immediately stepped forward to take the brocade box, Dong Yuwan shook her head at her, she opened the brocade box and took out a jade bracelet from it and walked towards the princess.

"Come, E-Niang will bring it to you." Reaching out, Dong Yuwan directly grabbed the princess's wrist.

The coldness touched by the skin under her hands was something Dong Yuwan didn't expect, how could it be so cold like this, she looked up with some surprise, and there was nothing unusual on the princess's delicate face.

As if aware of her hesitation, Eleven stretched out his other hand and gently held it, and the jade bracelet slid into his wrist.

"Thank you, E-niang." Eleven withdrew his wrist without a trace, and saluted Dong Yuwan with a smile.

"No thanks, no thanks, we will all be a family in the future." Dong Yuwan nodded, looked at Eleven's gentle smile, and turned around and returned to her seat without thinking much about it.

"Amma, Eniang, you haven't had breakfast yet. Eleven, I prepared some snacks. ”

Hearing the words, Shuang'er nodded to Yan'er who was standing at the door, and the maids who were waiting outside the door immediately walked in with baskets when they saw Yan'er waving, and they lined up neatly and saluted slightly, and walked towards the dining table.

The basket is a snack sent by the Queen Mother this morning, which is also a heartfelt gift, with a variety of styles, exquisite, and fragrant, which makes people have an appetite when they smell it.

As soon as Eleven stepped forward to support Qin Xiaotian, there was a sound of footsteps behind her, she tilted her head slightly and looked back.
