The wedding is cumbersome, and a set of procedures goes down, but Erniang is willing.

The red candles in the new room are flickering, and the second mother is looking at the furnishings in the room through the hijab, everything is novel, but it makes her happy.

It's just that time passed minute by minute, and the noise of the guests outside gradually stopped, but Shen Wei still didn't return to the room. Shen Wei only asked the maid to send Erniang back to the room after worshipping the church, but he himself left, the etiquette of the wine was not completed, and Erniang's hijab had not been removed.

Erniang has been waiting patiently, trying not to be anxious. She thought that on the first day she entered the door, the maid of the Shen family was still watching, and she didn't know if it was Mrs. Shen's person or Shen Wei's person, she couldn't let the people of the Shen family have a bad impression of herself.

It wasn't until the drum outside reminded Erniang that it was already the third watch, that she finally moved.

"Are all the guests outside?" Erniang asked softly.

But as soon as she spoke, no one answered. The maid of the Shen family thought that she was talking to her maid, but Erniang's own few maids were newly bought by the Xue family, and she had no tacit understanding with her, so she didn't know who she was asking, and she was a little cautious when she arrived in a new environment, so she didn't speak.

Erniang asked again.

At this time, a strange maid said: "Young lady Hui, it has been three watches, and most of the guests outside have dispersed." ”

Erniang's brows furrowed under the hijab, and she still asked, "Where did Xianggong go?" ”

"This ......" the maid was a little embarrassed, "the young master didn't explain." ”

It's really not that she doesn't want to answer, where does Shen Wei go, how can she explain to a maid?

At this time, a little maid walked to the door. waved to the maid, and the eyes of the maid who had just spoken lit up. looked at Erniang and quietly walked out. She exchanged words with the little maid outside, and after a while, the maid walked in with a look of embarrassment.

"Young lady, the little maid next to Sister Ji'er came over and said that the young master will be busy in the study until late, please rest first, don't wait."

Erniang's body stiffened, and she said half-loudly: "Study...... Is it far away? ”

"This ...... It's right next to the heart of the house. The maid added with some hesitation. The young master often stays in the study on weekdays. ”

Erniang's hand pinching the corner of her skirt tightened, and she took a deep breath: "Who is Ji'er?" "It's a woman's name. She knows Shen Wei's whereabouts, and there is a little maid by her side, could it be which aunt or room?

"Ji Er is the young master's eldest maid, and she serves in the study on weekdays. Most of the things in this yard are in charge of her. ”

Is it just a maid? Erniang pondered.

"Young lady, does the slave maid serve you to change your clothes?" The maid said cautiously.

Erniang thought about it and uncovered the hijab on her head, although the candlelight was not particularly bright. But it still made Erniang squint. Rubbing the hijab in her hand, Erniang asked the delicate-looking maid: "What's your name?" ”

"Young lady Hui, slave Zhen'er."

Erniang changed out of the heavy wedding dress that she had been wearing for a day under the service of Lily Zhen'er and a maid named Mint beside her. "Mint, find out my new scarlet sprinkler coat." Erniang instructed her maid.

"Young lady, why do you have to change your clothes at such a late hour?" Zhen'er said a little strangely.

Erniang didn't answer, but only ordered: "You go and help me prepare some food, and I put it in a food box." ”

Zhen'er was stunned for a moment, remembering that Erniang hadn't eaten since she entered the door, so she must have been hungry, so she hurriedly said: "Slave maid will go now, young lady, please wait a while." ”

Erniang nodded, thought about it and called the maid who was about to go out: "Send a bowl of sobering soup too." ”

Although Zhen'er was a little strange, she still took the order.

Erniang wore a festive vermilion base Baoxianghua embroidery collar gold thread embroidery under the service of mint, facing the placket, although the heavy crown on her head was removed, it was replaced with a pair of red gold hairpins full of Chijiao tassels.

By the time Zhen'er came in with a food box, Erniang was already dressed in a costume that could go out.

Seeing that Zhen'er was asking the little maid to put out the contents of the food box, Erniang hurriedly stopped: "You don't need to take it out, it's not good if it's cold." ”

"Young lady, don't you need it?" Jen'er wondered.

Erniang walked to the table and saw that in the open food box, there were several dishes on the upper layer.

"Here's porridge and decanting soup." Jane said busily.

Nodding, Erniang covered the food box with her own hands, handed it to Mint to carry, and said to Zhen'er: "Take me to Xinyueju." ”

Zhen'er widened her eyes, looked at the food box in Erniang's hand, and then looked at Erniang: "These ...... Is the young lady going to send it to the young master? ”

Erniang nodded: "Xianggong must not have used anything at night, he must be hungry at this time, and he said that he would stay up late, which is not good for his body." I'll bring him some food and I'll come back. ”

Zhen'er was a little embarrassed, the young master's study was a forbidden place, she had never set foot in it, and she had never seen other minions in the yard go, those who could enter and leave the young master's study were the young master's cronies, and among the maids, only the young master's most trusted Ji Er.

But Erniang's request sounds so reasonable that she has no way to refute it, who would say that a newlywed wife who cares about whether her husband has eaten well is unqualified?

Seeing that Zhen'er was embarrassed, Erniang smiled and said: "You can just lead me there, if the young master is to blame, I will bear it." ”

"Young lady, it's not that the slave is unwilling, it's just ...... It's just that the young master's study is a forbidden place, and the slaves and maids have never been allowed to set foot on it. Only Ji Er can enter. Zhen'er bowed her head.

The name Ji'er appeared in Erniang's second middle school again, Erniang was alert, she suppressed her displeasure, and her tone became softer: "The young master only said that he wouldn't let you in, but did he say that he wouldn't let me in?" ”

"This ......" Zhen'er shook her head, the young lady only entered the door today, and it is not clear whether she is bound by this prohibition or not. But couples should be different, right? She was a newcomer to Shen Wei's courtyard on an errand, and she didn't know whether Shen Wei's previous wife had gone in, so there was no precedent to follow.

"All you have to do is show me the way, you don't have to go in." Erniang said softly.

Zhen'er was finally moved by the words, and nodded: "Young lady, please come with the slave maid." ”

Erniang smiled and followed Zhen'er out of the door.

Today is the great joy of the Shen Mansion, and red lanterns with red happy characters are hung all over the house. At this time, it has not been extinguished, so even though it has passed the third watch, the roads in the house are still as bright as day.

These lanterns shine at Erniang's feet, making her feel very down-to-earth, and this will be her home in the future.

Shen Wei's study, Xinyue Building, was behind his courtyard, although it was not far away, it was shaded by dense trees. The further you go inside, the darker the light becomes, and there are no lanterns along the way.

Only then did Erniang notice that her and Shen Wei's courtyard was in the easterly corner of the mansion, a little far away from the main courtyard. And the location of the study is even more private.

"Why aren't there any lights here?" Erniang was supported by Zhen'er, paying attention to the road under her feet.

When Erniang said this, Zhen'er felt that there was something gloomy around, and on the trees overhead, even the birds didn't make a sound. It's so quiet.

"No one comes here on weekdays, maybe the young master didn't tell him to order the lanterns, so he didn't light them." Jane glanced around.

Erniang didn't ask again.

"Young lady, there is Xinyue Tower in front." Zhen'er pointed to the place where there was some light in front of her.

Erniang looked up and saw a small building appear in front of her, because there was a candle flame inside, so you can see a rough idea.

"Then you wait here, I'll take my maid in." In addition to Zhen'er, only a few of her own dowry maids came with Erniang.

Zhen'er looked around, she was actually a little scared. But thinking of Shen Wei's ban, she still didn't choose to go in with Erniang after all: "That slave is waiting for you here." ”

Erniang nodded and took the maids to the building.

It's just that as soon as he got close to Xiaolou, a person suddenly jumped out of nowhere.

Erniang was so frightened that she took a few steps back, her heart was pounding, and her maid was even more frightened and screamed.

"This is forbidden land." It was a tall man who suddenly appeared.

Only then did Erniang stroke her chest and look at the man, and saw that it was a man dressed in black with an ordinary face, and it should be Shen Wei's entourage or something. Although she didn't know why there were men in the inner courtyard, Erniang calmed down and said, "The young master is in the study." ”

The man turned a deaf ear, only blocked the way of Erniang and the others, and did not speak.

At this time, the maid behind Erniang finally became clever and mustered up the courage to reprimand: "This is our young lady." The young lady wants to see the young master, and you still don't go to pass the word. ”

The man finally glanced at Erniang, thought about it, but still shook his head and said, "No one is allowed to enter the study without the young master's orders." Young lady, please come back. ”

Erniang glanced at the maid who had just spoken, and the maid was blessed to the heart, and said, "If you don't go in to pass the word, how do you know if the young master wants to see our young lady?" Could it be that you can make decisions for the young master? ”

When the man in black heard this, he ignored it, and still returned to a silent appearance.

Erniang is not allowed to enter at this time, nor is she able to retreat.

She is a good face, if she is swept away in front of the maid like this, then she will not be able to accept it no matter what. On the wedding night, her husband hung in the new house, not to mention, if she couldn't even see her husband, would this make her embarrassed?

After all, the maids are newcomers, and when they encounter such a situation, they look at each other, and no one dares to come out again.

The two parties were at a stalemate in the cold wind, Erniang was embarrassed, and wanted to think of a way, a woman came out of the Xinyue Building, and Yingying saluted: "Young lady, young master, please come in." (To be continued)
