Qi Yuning held Lingling in his arms, took off her shoes, and let Lingling roll on the bed. The bridesmaid beside him said auspicious words, "Roll on the bed and you will have many children and grandchildren. May you have a son and a daughter."
Lingling said, "Wrong, wrong, it's my sister, my brother. Lingling already has many brothers. I didn't have a brother before, but now I have a cousin, brother Han, and brother Cheng... Lingling doesn't want a brother, she wants a sister!"
Qi Yuning smiled faintly. The younger brothers Lingling mentioned were actually her brothers. She didn't have any younger brothers yet.
Lingling is now looking forward to having a younger sister because she has too many younger brothers. If she finds that she doesn't have a younger brother after returning, she will probably be able to accept a younger brother. Qi Yuning is not worried about whether Lingling will be sad if she can't give birth to a younger sister in the future.
Qi Yuning gave the bridesmaid a look, and she could only follow Lingling's words, "Mr. give birth to a daughter, and then give birth to a little grandson!"
After rolling around on the bed, Lingling refused to get off and fell asleep directly on the wedding bed.
Seeing this, Princess Pingrou picked up Lingling and said, "This child must be tired from playing. Let Lingling sleep with me today."
Qi Yuning asked, "Your Highness, is this too much trouble?"
Lu Baozhu said, "Sister-in-law, you've already entered my princess's mansion, and you're still calling me princess?"
Qi Yuning smiled faintly and said, "Mom, this is too much trouble for you. You must be tired from taking care of the wedding these days. Just let Lu Baozhu take care of Lingling!"
Princess Pingrou thought about it and agreed, so she gave Lingling to Lu Baozhu and said, "Take Lingling back to your room and rest."
…
In the bridal chamber, after everyone had dispersed, the entire chamber suddenly became quiet.
Not long after it got dark, Lu Ze returned. After entering the bedroom, he asked the maids around Qi Yuning to leave.
When Qi Yuning saw Lu Ze, her cheeks were still flushed.
Lu Ze walked over to Qi Yuning and sat down, hugging Qi Yuning, who was wearing a bright red wedding dress, tightly in his arms.
Qi Yuning could smell no alcohol on him, so she thought he hadn't drunk much. She raised her eyes and met Lu Ze's without saying anything.
The red brocade quilt was slightly wrinkled and the bed curtains fell lightly.
It was dark in the tent, but they could still vaguely see each other with the help of the candlelight through the translucent gauze curtains. The wedding dress that took a lot of time to make slipped out of the tent, and the bright red wedding clothes of the man and woman were scattered on the ground.
The big red dragon and phoenix candles flickered all night.
…
At the hour of Mao, the sound of Jingzhe was heard outside.
After Qi Yuning woke up in Lu Ze's arms, she rubbed her eyes gently and said to Lu Ze, "It's almost dawn. It's time to get up and serve tea."
Lu Ze hugged Qi Yuning and smiled faintly, "My mother and Lingling have the same schedule. They won't get up until the morning. His Majesty in the palace is not in good health and won't get up early either. He will have to wait until almost the evening to enter the palace."
Qi Yuning asked, "Do we need to go to the Duke's Mansion to offer tea?"
Lu Ze looked into Qi Yuning's eyes and said, "If you don't want to, it's okay if you don't go."
Qi Yuning sighed and said, "Although my brother said that I don't have to endure grievances, I still can't let others say I'm rude. She is your grandmother after all, so you should go and offer her tea."
What's more, Qi Yuning has no conflicts with Mr. Lu Er and his wife, and Mr. Lu San and his wife.
Even Zhong Ming and Lu Baohua were about to get married, so even for Zhong Xin's sake, she had to show some respect to Mr. and Mrs. Lu.
Lu Ze hugged Qi Yuning tightly, "Ningning."
Qi Yuning pushed Lu Ze away and stood up, letting the maid come in to help her dress and do her makeup.
After changing out of her undergarment, Lichun looked at the red and purple marks on Qi Yuning's collarbone and said, "Are there bugs in this bridal chamber? I'll go get some incense from the palace later."
Qi Yuning blushed, not daring to look at Lu Ze. She just said, "This isn't a bug bite."
Qi Yuning had her hair styled in a gentle bun today and wore a red skirt, which made her skin look even whiter. After putting on lip balm, she could hear Lingling's voice.
"Mother!"
Lu Ze picked up the little Lingling who came in and said, "Lingling."
Lingling said in Lu Ze's arms, "Daddy."
Seeing Lingling had woken up, Qi Yuning glanced at the sky outside. She didn't expect that it took almost an hour to dress up. Fortunately, Lu Ze had the patience to wait by her side.
Qi Yuning repeatedly said to Lu Ze, "Let's go, it's time to serve tea."
Qi Yuning and Lu Ze first went to the lobby of the princess's mansion to serve tea to Princess Pingrou and Prince Consort Lu.
Qi Yuning came forward with tea and said, "Mom, Dad, please have some tea."
Duke Lu smiled kindly and said, "Okay, okay, okay."
Princess Pingrou handed a bunch of keys to Qi Yuning and said, "Yuning, when you marry into our Princess Mansion, you will be the mistress of both the Princess Mansion and the Lu Family. From now on, you will be in charge of both the Princess Mansion and the Lu Family."
Qi Yuning asked, "Isn't the Duke's Mansion managed by Second and Third Aunts?"
Qi Yuning is in charge of the huge Qi Mansion and sometimes she is too busy to handle everything. She is not greedy for the housekeeper position of the Lu family. To her, she really looks down on the Lu family's wealth.
Princess Pingrou said, "Just take the time to manage it, so that some people won't say that you were married to ruin the family. You manage the entire Prince Qi's Mansion so well, how can you not manage the Lu Mansion?"
Qi Yuning thought that the ones who said she couldn't manage the household couldn't be Second Madam Lu or Third Madam Lu. Lu Ze's two aunts were always sensible people. Their children hadn't got engaged yet, and some of them were relying on the Duke Lu's Mansion and the Princess's Mansion. They would definitely not offend her, the Crown Prince's wife. In this case, it was probably only that Old Madam Lu.
Qi Yuning responded, "Yes."
Lu Ze said to Qi Yuning, "If you're too tired, you can just ignore it."
Qi Yuning said: "It's okay."
It doesn't matter whether you are driving one sheep or two sheep. Compared with the accounts of Prince Qi's Mansion, the accounts of the Lu family are just minor matters. They can be taken care of when you have time.
Lu Ze said to Princess Pingrou, "Mother, it's getting late. I'm going to take Yuning to the Duke's Mansion to serve tea."
Princess Pingrou said unhappily, "Going to the Duke's Mansion to offer tea? Humph! You are so filial."
Duke Lu said to Princess Pingrou, "On this happy day, please don't make Yuning feel awkward. Filial piety is the most important thing after all."
Princess Pingrou said, "I will go with you."
Lingling held Qi Yuning's hand in one hand and Lu Ze's hand in the other, and walked happily towards Duke Lu's mansion.
Just as they entered the main hall of Duke Lu's mansion, after Second Master Lu and Third Master Lu and their wife saluted Princess Pingrou and Duke Lu, they saw Old Madam Lu, who was sitting on the high seat, stomping her cane and angrily saying:
"I heard that when the bride came home yesterday, this little thing said she didn't want a brother but a sister. Then she rolled into the bridal chamber and got the new bed by herself, a girl? Isn't this ridiculous? Do you want my Lu family to end the incense and bloodline of the eldest branch of the family?"
