"Lao Dingbeihou is my adoptive father."

Just when Shi Jinxiu was full of puzzlement, Yu Wenyan said indifferently beside her.

Shi Jinxiu's eyes widened: "You are the third uncle who was expelled from the house by them?" ”

Yu Wenyan raised his eyebrows.

"I thought you already knew," Yu Wenyan also looked surprised, "After all, this matter is not a secret in the capital." ”

"It's that I didn't bother to inquire," Shi Jinxiu bowed her head a little ashamedly, "I thought you wouldn't like people talking about this." ”

In her heart, she always thought that this was a past that would make Yu Wenyan feel uncomfortable.

Yu Wenyan was stunned when he heard this, and then he was moved by Shi Jinxiu's sensitivity and carefulness.

"What's the use of whether I like it or not? The mouth grows on other people's bodies, and what they like to say is something I can't control. Yu Wenyan smiled shallowly, "And this is just everyone's curiosity, and when everyone loses interest, no one will talk about this anymore." ”

Hearing Yu Wenyan say this, Shi Jinxiu found that it seemed to be the case.

On the contrary, the Li family of Dingbei Hou was secretive about this matter.

At least in her dream, the third uncle who was kicked out by the Li family was a taboo.

It's just that she didn't expect that she was going around and around, and she was still married to someone from the Li family?

Because Emperor Qingde's interest was very high, he left the eldest princess, Yu Wenyan and Shi Jinxiu to dine in the palace.

After it was dark, he came out of the palace.

Shi Jinxiu, who had been holding on for a day, was already so tired that she fell asleep in the carriage, and she didn't remember how she got out of the carriage or how she got back to the room.

She only knew that she woke up after a night's sleep, and her whole body felt very refreshed, and the white silk nightgown on her body had a faint jasmine fragrance.

"Madame, are you going to get up?" Hearing a sound in the big red tent, the cuckoo pursed his lips and laughed beside the bed.

"Get up." Listening to the cuckoo's voice, Shi Jinxiu, who was still a little uncomfortable, had no choice but to sit up.

But as soon as she lifted the tent, she saw the cuckoo's banter on his face.

Just when she was full of questions, the cuckoo leaned over and said, "The lord treats the lady really well!" ”

With Shi Jinxiu's understanding of the cuckoo, she knew that she would not come to such a sentence for no reason, so she frowned and looked at the cuckoo.

The cuckoo said in a slightly teasing voice: "Last night, Mrs. was carried all the way back by the adults, and after entering the house, the adults also washed and wiped their hands for Mrs., without me interfering at all." This morning, he also specially instructed me not to disturb my wife's dreams. ”

Although Shi Jinxiu had no memory, just hearing Du Juan say this, she became a little red-faced.

"What about the others?" Shi Jinxiu wanted to talk about his perfunctory past.

"My lord said that he would go to the Yamen of Zhenfu Si first, and then come back to dine with his wife at noon." The cuckoo replied with a smile.

"And what time is it?" Shi Jinxiu asked softly.

The cuckoo replied with a smile: "It's just Chenzheng." ”

It seems that the hour is not too late.

Shi Jinxiu breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, and got out of bed with her shoes on.

The cuckoo called in three or four little maids, either carrying hot water or holding copper basins.

Seeing her skillfully commanding these little maids to do this and that, Shi Jinxiu smiled with her: "I didn't think you could stand alone." ”

Du Juan hurriedly shook his head when he heard this: "Fortunately, with Mama Nie's guidance, I just have to learn from it." ”

Because Shi Jinxiu married Yu Wenyan, Mrs. Nie also moved to their new mansion with her, occupying the place of a housekeeper beside Shi Jinxiu, but Shi Jinxiu did not plan to call her.

On the contrary, Nie Pozi's temperament was a little idle, so she took the initiative to teach Du Juan and others to learn the rules, so as not to look at jokes when someone came to visit in the future.

"Since Mama Nie has the heart to teach, you should study hard." Shi Jinxiu nodded when she heard this, "She is the one who has been by the eldest princess's side, and her knowledge is naturally stronger than you and me." ”

The cuckoo was the one who didn't know what to do, so he responded crisply, and then asked people to go to the kitchen to pass breakfast.

Because he was busy going to the eldest princess's mansion yesterday, Shi Jinxiu ate in a hurry for breakfast.

When I was idle today, I found that the breakfast sent from the kitchen was really exquisite: the rattan cake tasted sweet and delicious, the shrimp porridge was boiled finely, and the other pickles used to accompany the meal were not salty or spicy, but they could properly stop the sweetness in the mouth, making people eat fresh and refreshing.

Just as Shi Jinxiu was eating, Du Juan was carefully observing her expression on the side, so that Shi Jinxiu asked puzzledly, "What's wrong?" ”

"It was the mother-in-law in the kitchen who asked me on purpose," the cuckoo smiled, "because they don't know what you like, Madame, so they have to come to me to see if Madame likes this." ”

was so cautious that Shi Jinxiu was greatly surprised.

"Let the housekeeper in the kitchen come and see me." Shi Jinxiu wiped his mouth and motioned to the cuckoo to remove the food from the table.

After a while, two mothers-in-law, one fat and one thin, came.

When they saw Shi Jinxiu, they saluted respectfully and reported to their homes: "We were all originally the mother-in-law on the stove in the eldest princess's mansion, and we were transferred by the eldest princess because of the marriage of Lord Yuwen. ”

They turned out to be the eldest princess's people!

"And that's not all!" The cuckoo took the opportunity to come over and said, "I specifically asked, there are still several places in the mansion that have also been transferred from the eldest princess's mansion!" ”

This made Shi Jinxiu feel very surprised.

It seems that the eldest princess's "mother-in-law" is really not just talking.

"Madame...... The Tang steward in the outer courtyard asked to see ...... outside, "There was a little maid asking for instructions outside the door through the curtain."

The two mothers-in-law in the kitchen took the initiative to retreat when they heard this, and Shi Jinxiu also walked from the inner room to the main hall, only to find that there was a middle-aged uncle in his thirties standing in the main hall.

"Steward Tang?" Shi Jinxiu asked tentatively.

The middle-aged uncle first bowed to Shi Jinxiu, and then limped to present a stack of account books.

"What is this?" Shi Jinxiu looked at him.

"This is the account book of the property in the name of the adult." After Steward Tang presented the account books, he didn't forget to take two steps back before replying, "A few days ago, my lord explained to me and asked me to count the account books and deliver them all to my wife. ”

Looking at the account book, which was almost half a foot high, Shi Jinxiu was taken aback: "Leave all this to me?" ”

"Yes, my lord said, after marrying my wife, I will hand over all these to my wife." Steward Tang said with a respectful face, "Including me and those under my command, all of them will be sent by Madame." ”

Only then did Shi Jinxiu realize that what Yu Wenyan said to her before was really not just talking.
