Counting nine cold days, one night of hot noodle soup, Yan Niang felt that the whole person was warm. She rested the bowl on the tray, and after a cup of tea, Momozhi came in to clean up the dishes.

When the guests outside gradually dispersed, Jiang Yuchengcai returned to the room with a smell of wine, and when he crossed the threshold, he almost fell, and Yan Niang hurriedly stepped forward to help. Jiang Yucheng smiled at her and patted her arm lightly with his hand, "Thank you lady for reaching out." ”

Hearing the word "lady", Yan Niang only felt that the blood in her whole body was surging up, her face was hot, she hurriedly lowered her head, and did not look at the man who had already worshiped her.

Jiang Yucheng didn't expect her to be so shy, it was completely different from what she had seen before, which made him dare not do anything like Meng Lang's actions again.

Before Yan Niang helped Jiang Yucheng to the bed, Jiang Yucheng took her hand and walked to the table. There was a pot of wine on the table, Jiang Yucheng took two wine glasses and filled them with wine, "Drink this cup of wine today, I hope that my husband and wife will be stronger than Jin in the future, and work together to make a white head." ”

Yan Niang bowed her head slightly.

The two of them picked up their wine glasses together, wrapped their arms around each other and fed each other to drink the wine, the wine was spicy and slightly bitter, but the drinker felt sweet and fragrant.

Then the two of them went to wash and clean up, and the night was still long, and they would deliver each other to each other during this long night, completing the most intimate ritual between husband and wife in this world.

Following

Before dawn, Yan Niang woke up, and when she opened her eyes, her eyes were full of bright red, and the pair of red candles with the thickness of the baby's arms on the table had not yet burned out. Yan Niang was stunned, and it wasn't until there was a slight noise next to her that she reacted, and she got married again yesterday.

She quietly glanced to the side, Jiang Yucheng was sleeping soundly, thinking of his crazy behavior last night, Yan Niang couldn't help blushing and heartbeating. If it weren't for last night, she might never have experienced the joy of Dun Lun for the rest of her life.

The two are newly married but not first-time marriages, everyone who should know knows that they are not at a loss like other newlyweds. Jiang Yucheng's patience is very good, he will take into account Yan Niang's emotions, and he will only continue after asking her permission every time.

I don't know if it was because of the bowl of clear soup noodles yesterday, or because of his extreme gentleness last night, Yan Niang felt that she seemed to have planted a seed called liking in her heart, and it would not be long before it would take root and sprout and grow into a towering tree.

This kind of liking is different from the likes of girls, but a kind of heartbeat and heartfelt joy, as well as the joy of being held in the palm of the hand and treated tenderly.

She stared at him for a moment, a smile on her lips. She looked out again, and it was a little brighter than before. It was about time to touch, and she quickly got up to clean up. Today is the first day of marrying into the Jiang family, and she has to go to the stove room to prepare for the morning meal according to the custom.

As soon as she moved, Jiang Yucheng also woke up, and he looked at her sleepily: "Sleep a little longer." ”

Yan Niang smiled and shook her head: "It's not too early, the concubine has to go and prepare for the morning meal." ”

Jiang Yuwei wanted to say that the morning food was responsible for the peach branch, but suddenly thought that she had just entered the door, according to the custom, today's morning food should indeed be prepared by her. Seeing her get up, he didn't feel sleepy, so he simply got up.

Seeing this, Yan Niang asked, "Isn't my husband sleeping too?" ”

Jiang Yucheng smiled, "You and I are already husband and wife, how can I keep you busy alone, let's go, I'll accompany you to prepare for the morning meal." ”

Yan Niang looked at him in surprise, thinking that she had heard it wrong. Jiang Yucheng said while tying his robe: "The Jiang family is a small family, and you don't pay attention to the rigid rules of high-ranking families, so when you talk to me in the future, you don't have to call yourself a concubine." ”

After putting on the robe, he saw that Yan Niang was still standing still, so he naturally took her hand and walked towards the stove room together. Yan Niang's brain was dizzy as if she was in a dream, and she didn't come back to her senses when she got to the stove room.

Jiang Yu sat in front of the stove and lit the fire, and he said to Yan Niang: "The rice is in the jar in the corner, the wheat noodles are in the second cabinet next to it, and I don't know the rest of the things, you can find it yourself." ”

Yan Niang followed his words and found rice and noodles, she planned to cook a pot of multigrain porridge, spread a plate of egg cakes, and fry a vinegared white song. Her hands and feet are nimble, her movements are orderly, and the morning meal is ready in less than half an hour.

There was a tempting fragrance from the stove room, Jiang Yucheng sniffed, and couldn't help but praise: "The lady is really ingenious, and she is blessed for her husband." ”

Yan Niang's face turned red again, but she was very happy in her heart.

Jiang's mother's time was pinched very accurately, and as soon as Yan Niang brought the morning food to the table, she got up. Yan Niang was originally going to wait for her mother-in-law to get up, but Jiang Yucheng still stopped her on the grounds that the Jiang family did not have such rules.

Her husband said so, but Yan Niang could only listen. But when she saw Jiang's mother coming out with Manman, she was stunned for a moment.

"Mother." Seeing Yan Niang, Man Man rushed over like a pony who had taken off the reins.

Yan Niang hugged her daughter and looked at Jiang's mother suspiciously.

Mother Jiang smiled and said: "Yesterday, I was full of noise to find you, I thought that it was inconvenient for you to get married, so I asked Taozhi to bring her to me." She slept with me last night, and this girl didn't recognize the bed, and slept like a pig on a pillow. ”

Mother Jiang really likes Manman, and when she talks about her, the smile on her face can't be hidden.

Man Man pouted, shook his head and said in a milky voice: "Grandmother Jiang, Man Man is not a pig." ”

Mother Jiang smiled even more when she heard this, beckoned Manman over, hugged her and teased: "But I heard you snoring last night, and the little pig also snored when he slept." ”

Manman looked at her with wide eyes, surprise and confusion written on his face.

Mother Jiang snorted and laughed, and lightly nodded her little nose, "Grandmother Jiang was teasing you just now, Manman is not a pig, he is full of good children." ”

Manman laughed happily when he heard this.

Yan Niang watched their interaction, and her heart was grateful and happy.

After tasting Yan Niang's craftsmanship, Jiang's mother was full of praise, her eyes went back and forth on her son and daughter-in-law several times, and she was more and more satisfied with this marriage.

Not long after the morning meal, Leng Ruru and He Wen brought He Changsheng over. The Jiang family has few relatives and a thin number of people, so the couple specially came to the Jiang family to make up the number.

On the second day of marriage, the newlyweds should offer tea to their parents and elders, and Jiang's mother sat on the top, and on the left was Jiang Xian's tablet.

Yan Niang and Jiang Yucheng knelt on the mat and each brought a cup of tea. Yan Niang served the tea with both hands and said, "Mother, please drink tea." ”

Mother Jiang took the teacup with a "hey", took a slight sip and handed it to the peach branch, and then took out a red seal and a pair of jade bracelets to Yan Niang.

"This was given to me by Cheng'er's grandmother back then, and I will give them to you today, hoping that you will live a good life with Cheng'er."

Yan Niang glanced at Jiang Yucheng flattered, and Jiang Yucheng said: "What my mother gave you, you can keep it." ”

Yan Niang hurriedly took the bracelet and the red envelope, thanked Jiang's mother, and presented the shoes and socks she made.

Yan Niang's craftsmanship Jiang Mu was naturally satisfied, she put her things on her lap and looked at the two of them and said: "The old woman has no other requirements, I just hope that you husband and wife will work hard and open up branches and leaves for the Jiang family as soon as possible." ”

Yan Niang and Jiang Yucheng replied in unison: "Yes." ”

Next, Yan Niang gave incense and tea to the Leng Leng Jiaojiao in front of her, which is the rule for the steproom to show respect for the original match.

Finally, there is the link of recognizing relatives, and what Yan Niang prepared for Leng Ruru was a hand-stove cotton cover embroidered with bamboo newspaper Sanduo and Mei Xianwufu patterns. The meaning is good news that there are many children, many blessings, and many longevity (three more), her pregnancy is not easy, and Yan Niang hopes that she can give birth safely and smoothly.

What was prepared for He Wencai was a pencil case embroidered with the four seasons periwinkle pattern. He Wencai is a reader, this pattern is based on the outline of the four-fold ruyi shape, and the built-in moon season flowers with lush branches and leaves symbolize the four seasons of Changchun, the flowers are luxuriant, and the future is like a bright future.

For Changsheng is a ruyi-shaped silver longevity lock, on which are entrenched the eight characters of "longevity, wealth, happiness and longevity", and there are eight small bells falling below. Changsheng was born frail and sickly, and he was given a longevity lock in the hope that he would be healthy and have a safe and smooth life.

Leng Ruru saw the longevity lock that Yan Niang gave to her son, her eyes couldn't help but turn red, she was afraid of rushing to the happy event, she held back the tears that flowed out, and silently recorded Yan Niang's affection in her heart.

Man Man followed Yan Niang to the Jiang family, and she was also a member of the Jiang family, whether it was the Jiang family's mother and son or Leng Ruru's husband and wife, they all gave the little girl a meeting gift, and even the youngest Changsheng gave her something.

The two surnames were married, and a good relationship was concluded, and they were both a family from then on.

Three days after getting married, Jiang Yucheng took his marriage leave and went to the county office, while Yan Niang took care of it at home. Originally, when Jiang Yucheng was not married, the inner courtyard of the Jiang family was managed by Jiang's mother. Now that Yan Niang is married, Jiang's mother will hand it over to her, and she will go around with a full house, looking like she is teasing her grandson and enjoying herself.

In addition to a few masters, there are only two subordinates in the Jiang family, one is the peach branch who serves Jiang's mother, and the other is the coachman and porter Yan Bo, both of whom have signed a death deed. The mother-daughter contract of Yang Niangzi originally hired by Yan Niang had not expired, and after Yan Niang obtained the consent of her mother-in-law, she let them enter Jiang's house, and the original rented house was returned.

Yang Niangzi was originally a little nervous, thinking that Yan Niang would dismiss them after getting married, but after Yan Niang let them move into Jiang's house, her heart fell. In order to repay Yan Niang's kindness, she is more diligent than before, and she always rushes to do any work, sometimes even Taozhi says that after Yang Niangzi came, she had more time to be idle.

So, Yan Niang asked Taozhi to serve Jiang's mother, and Yang Niangzi did the things at home, sometimes she was too busy and she also took a hand, as for Yaya, she did some light work such as burning fires.

After this arrangement, the Jiang family has obviously changed a lot, and when Jiang Yucheng came back, he found that the windows at home were bright, clean and tidy; The subordinates and the helpers have their own division of labor and are orderly; The smile on Jiang's mother's face was even more, and she looked a few years younger.

He likes this change very much, and his love and satisfaction with Yan Niang are even greater.

After the two returned to the room in the evening, Jiang Yucheng couldn't help but hug Yan Niang and said softly: "I am not at home for half a decade, thank you for taking care of my wife at home." ”

Yan Niang's face was slightly hot, "This is what I should do." ”

Jiang Yucheng didn't speak, but his hand gently patted her back. Yan Niang gently leaned on his chest, quietly feeling the warmth and tranquility of this moment.

After a while, she looked up and said, "Husband, I want Manman to change his surname to Jiang." ”

Jiang Yucheng slowly let go of her, with a look of surprise on his face.

"Only change the surname, not into the Jiang family tree." Yan Niang thought he was angry and hurriedly explained.

Jiang Yucheng smiled, "It's nothing to enter the family tree, anyway, the Jiang family is in charge of me." ”

Yan Niang couldn't believe it, and Jiang Yucheng said again: "I married you, and Manman is my daughter, and changing my surname and entering the family tree are trivial matters." ”

Yan Niang was very moved in her heart, but she didn't take this opportunity to let Man Man enter the Jiang family tree.

She changed her daughter's surname because she would have other children in the future, and she didn't want to be wronged, let alone have different surnames.
