Today is the ninth day of Yinzhi's wedding to Hezhuo.

It's also the day for the bride to return to her parents' home.

Yesterday, Yinzhi asked his tutor in the Imperial Study for leave, and today he will accompany his wife on her return visit to her parents' home.

"Korkun and his family pay their respects to the master and the eldest princess."

"Greetings to the master, greetings to the eldest princess."

As soon as I got off the carriage, I saw my grandmother kneeling down to greet me.

My heart is filled with sorrow. Once you enter the palace, it's like entering a deep sea. When we meet again, we are already separated as emperor and subject. No, it should be said that from the moment the imperial decree of marriage was bestowed upon us, we were already members of the royal family.

Yinzhi seemed to sense something and gently squeezed my hand.

He quickly said, "Grandmother, Father-in-law and Mother-in-law, please rise."

He Zhuo quickly stepped forward, wanting to help his grandmother up.

"Grandmother, Father, Mother, are you trying to make me feel terrible?"

"My lady, etiquette must not be disregarded."

Yinzhi declined again.

My grandmother pushed my hand away and performed a full bow.

After bowing

Yinzhi personally helped his grandmother and mother up.

He Zhuo, supporting his mother, said, "Let's go inside and talk."

Yinzhi was entertained by his father, elder brother, and second elder brother, while I was welcomed into the inner courtyard. After some pleasantries, only my grandmother and mother remained in the room.

With tears in her eyes, my mother held my hand and asked, "Is the prince treating you well? Is the eldest prince good to you? Are the servants useful? How are the princesses and concubines in the back courtyard?"

"Don't worry, the First Princess looks rosy and radiant. The Master must be treating her well."

Although the grandmother spoke in a calm and even tone, she looked He Zhuo up and down several times since she entered the room, which revealed her concern for her granddaughter.

"Yes, yes, look at me." Mother wiped away her tears with a handkerchief.

I nestled in my mother's arms, patting her hand reassuringly before looking at my grandmother and saying, "Grandmother, don't worry, I'm doing well in the palace. The eldest prince treats me well, and Consort Hui is kind and gentle. The servants are all useful, and the concubines and princesses in the back courtyard are all obedient."

I could feel my mother and grandmother both breathe a sigh of relief.

"Yes, our fifth daughter is excellent in both appearance and character, and should be treated well." The mother gently stroked her youngest daughter's face, revealing a gratified smile.

Grandmother: "The prince himself accompanied her on her homecoming, bringing two large carts of gifts, which shows that our eldest princess is to his liking."

Grandmother and mother-in-law smiled at each other.

"However, the First Princess Consort must not be careless. Marrying into the palace is not the same as outside. Our family cannot always support you. You have to rely on yourself in the palace."

Grandmother: "After Xiao Wu became the First Princess Consort, all the men in the family became more ambitious. Your brothers all said they would support you. Your younger brother comes to see you every day. You two chat, I'll go and call him over."

After my grandmother left, my mother asked me, "This is just the beginning. Although everyone says that a woman's life is tied to a man, that's not entirely true."

Marriage requires daily effort and maintenance.

Remember what your mother said: always keep a clear head and don't fall into the web of love woven by men and lose yourself.

Only by staying clear-headed at all times can you remain invincible. Be considerate of your husband, care about his preferences, and don't just blindly do things without saying anything. Let him know your efforts and what you have done.

You need to make him feel that you care about him, respect him, and that he's on your mind.

"Furthermore, you should take advantage of your marriage to get pregnant and give birth to a son, so that your position as the primary wife will be secure."

"Mother, don't worry, I can tell that Master likes me."

Lady Irgen Gioro tapped her youngest daughter's forehead: "You shouldn't take his affection for granted. He's considerate of you, but you should be even more considerate of him, showing him warmth and care."

By the way, speaking of the homecoming gift, did you choose it, or did the man choose it?
