Chapter 305 Returning Home

Lin Hao got dressed and went to the main courtyard with Qi Shuo who had been waiting for her.

On the way, Qi Shuo whispered, "Don't be nervous, father and mother are both easy to get along with."

Lin Hao smiled sweetly: "I know."

Having been neighbors for many years, although she had little contact with Prince Jing and his wife, she knew they were easygoing people. She also became good friends with the young princess, so she didn't have to worry about the sister-in-law issue.

Lin Hao raised his eyes to glance at the person walking beside him and thought to himself: The more I think about this marriage, the more satisfied I am.

"Why are you grinning?" Qi Shuo asked with a smile.

"No, who is smiling foolishly?" Lin Hao tried hard to hide the upturned corners of his mouth.

Qi Shuo reached out and held her hand, walking lightly as if he could fly at any time.

The servants they met on the road couldn't help laughing when they saw the young couple trying hard to hide their affection.

Who would have thought that the usually gentle and calm prince would become like a different person after getting married.

In the main hall of the main courtyard, Prince Jing and Princess Jing sat upright, waiting for the arrival of the newlyweds.

"princess."

"Um?"

"You don't have to keep your back so straight..."

Princess Jing rolled her eyes and said, "Your Highness, please drink less tea. You will need more later."

This is her first time being a mother-in-law, shouldn’t she be a little nervous?

Is it that obvious?

Princess Jing quietly relaxed.

Not long after, the maid at the door called out, "The Crown Prince and the Crown Prince's wife are here."

Princess Jing couldn't help but straighten her relaxed body again. She glanced at Prince Jing who was sitting even straighter than her, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.

The curtain at the door was lifted, and Qi Shuo and Lin Hao walked in side by side.

Both of them were wearing red clothes, and the corners of their eyes and brows showed joy and sweetness that they could not hide even if they tried.

Qi Qiong sat on one side and felt that the whole hall became much brighter as soon as his brother and sister-in-law came in.

"Greetings, Father and Mother." The two of them bowed to Prince Jing and his wife.

Qi Qiong stood up and greeted: "Brother, sister-in-law."

At this time, the door curtain was quickly lifted and a man rushed in.

Prince Jing's face immediately darkened: "Why did you come here just now?"

Qi Huan quickly looked around and found that everyone was there. He thought to himself, "Oh no!" and put on a big smile: "Greetings to father, mother, elder brother and sister-in-law."

Prince Jing wanted to curse, but he remembered that his daughter-in-law was there and suppressed his anger.

The next step is for the bride to serve tea.

"Father, please have some tea."

"Okay, okay." Prince Jing drank the tea in one gulp, looking as if he was drinking alcohol.

Princess Jing frowned patiently.

Lin Hao took the gift from Prince Jing and offered tea to Princess Jing.

Princess Jing took the teacup and looked at the bride who was serving her tea.

I have to say, just looking at the new daughter-in-law's demeanor, she is much better than before.

Princess Jing took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "Get up quickly."

Although Prince Jing's Mansion and the General's Mansion are adjacent to each other, the two families did not have much interaction in the past. Princess Jing's impression of Lin Hao was the same as everyone else's, mostly based on hearsay.

Listening to those rumors, she always felt that Miss Lin Er was not a proper lady. Of course, since her son really liked her, she had no objection.

But today, seeing Lin Hao serving tea in a proper manner with impeccable movements and manners, Princess Jing suddenly felt like she had earned something.

Well, that’s not the case, but the fact is that it exceeded expectations.

Princess Jing's smile grew more genuine as she took off the jade bracelet from her wrist and put it on Lin Hao: "We'll be a family from now on, don't be restrained. There aren't many people in our house, so there won't be much to worry about."

"Thank you, mother." Lin Hao thanked her sincerely.

Although she is not the kind of daughter-in-law who would swallow her anger, it would be great if she could get along well with her mother-in-law.

Next it was the turn of Qi Huan and his sister to greet Lin Hao.

"Hello, sister-in-law." Qi Huan smiled and opened his mouth to ask what gift was prepared for him, but he saw his elderly parents out of the corner of his eye and knew what to do, so he didn't say anything in return.

Lin Hao handed over the gift.

Qi Huan took the small box and opened it to see - oh, an inkstone.

Wait, what was pressed under the inkstone was - a gold brick. Qi Huan's eyes widened.

This is really my dear sister-in-law, she really gives him money to spend!

With a click, Qi Huan closed the box, his face beaming. "Thank you, sister-in-law, for the inkstone. I will definitely write more in the future!"

Prince Jing and Princess Jing looked at each other, feeling a little confused.

Even if the two brothers have a good relationship, it would be too much for Huan'er to be more friendly to his sister-in-law, right?

The lies were told with such sincerity.

Qi Qiong was standing next to Qi Huan, so of course he knew what was going on. He suppressed his smile and saluted Lin Hao.

Lin Hao gave her a pair of delicate and lively flower hairpins and two hand-embroidered silk handkerchiefs.

After the tea ceremony, the atmosphere became more relaxed. On the way back to the courtyard, Lin Hao said with a smile, "My mother is more kind than I thought."

Qi Shuo also laughed: "My mother is actually quite different from the impression people have of a noble lady..."

Lin Hao nodded to show his understanding.

With her grandmother and mother around, she didn't find it strange at all.

The next two days were relaxing and comfortable, and soon it was time to return home.

Qi Shuo felt relieved when they went out together.

During the past two days, when walking in the garden, whenever Ah Hao's eyes fell on the wall, he began to worry whether Ah Hao wanted to climb over the wall and go back to her parents' home.

It is not impossible to climb over the wall and go back to your parents' home, but if you just get married, you should still observe the customs even for the sake of good luck.

"What's wrong?" Lin asked with a smile, noticing Qi Shuo's inexplicable relaxation.

Maybe because they had been too close these past two days, she spoke in a soft and delicate tone unconsciously.

Qi Shuo slightly turned his eyes away, secretly despising his almost non-existent self-control in front of Ah Hao.

"I feel a little nervous when I think about going to Yue's house."

Lin Hao glared at him: "Why do I feel that you are not nervous, but relieved?"

"No."

The two of them walked out chatting and laughing.

A steward had long been waiting outside the General's Mansion. In the hall, Lin clutched her handkerchief and complained to the old lady, "When Chan'er got married, I didn't notice it because Ah Hao was around. But now that Ah Hao is married, I suddenly feel that the mansion is so deserted."

She sighed, her teeth gnashing as she said, "Even Lin Xiaohua wore a red silk flower to Prince Jing's mansion on her wedding day!"

When she saw it at that time, she felt really bad.

"Just marry the man next door, don't be ungrateful." The old lady was too lazy to pay attention to her daughter's complaints.

The maid came in with a smile on her face and reported: "The second young lady and the second uncle are back!"

Lin Chan and his wife were only one step behind Lin Hao and the other two, so they arrived at the same time.

"After all, my second sister lives closer. I wanted to go out early, but I didn't expect to be behind you." Lin Chan smiled, and couldn't help but envy her sister who married next door.

Han Baocheng enthusiastically pulled Qi Shuo to his side and said, "I didn't expect to become a brother-in-law with the prince. Let's have a good drink today."

On the men's side, Cheng Shu and A Xing were accompanying them, while on this side, there were the old lady, Mrs. Lin and Lin's good sisters. They were all family, and the atmosphere at the banquet was very relaxed.

But when Lin Chan picked up a piece of steamed sea bass with chopsticks and ate it, her expression suddenly changed.
