"I don't care how unruly and rude you were in your parents' home before. Now that you've married into our family, you must change those bad habits."
"Women should be virtuous and kind. I'm tired of saying this! But what about you? Is there anyone who listens?"
Li Sisi moved her lips and wanted to refute in dissatisfaction, but Xiao Yunchen grabbed her hand as if he had anticipated it.
"My lady, don't be impulsive."
Li Sisi pursed her lips and muttered softly, "If we don't want to hear it, just stop talking. I'm tired of hearing the same thing every morning when I greet you."
"What are you mumbling about?" Madam Xiao's eyes sharpened as she said in a cold voice, "I thought you came from a family of scholars and would be well-mannered. I didn't expect the Shen family to raise such a rude person like you."
Xiao Yunchen frowned: "Mother, you are too serious."
"Even you dare to disobey me, right? You're such a fool, forgetting your mother now that you have a wife. What have I taught you all these years?" Madam Xiao pointed at Li Sisi with her handkerchief and said angrily, "Look, whose wife runs away from home every day? Only your two brothers' wives run away from home every day, and they even go out together!"
Mrs. Xiao had disliked the two of them for a long time, but she usually put up with it when her son and husband were not at home.
Now that her husband and son are here, she has to clearly list all the crimes committed by both of them in front of them.
"Mother-in-law, what you said is not right. We sisters-in-law have a good relationship, and you should be happy! Are you expecting us sisters-in-law to quarrel all day long?"
"Look at me, look at me. She talks back to me every time I say something. How can she be a lady from a noble family?!" Mrs. Xiao was so angry that her fingers were shaking as she pointed at Li Sisi.
Marquis Xiao lost his parents when he was young. When Madam Xiao married into the mansion, she was the mistress of the house. The Marquis was her childhood sweetheart and was deeply in love with her. He usually doted on her.
Although Xiao Yunyu is unruly and difficult to tame, he still gives his stepmother some face, and the two of them can maintain the appearance of loving mother and filial son.
Not to mention Xiao Yunchen, he has been well-behaved and obedient since he was a child.
It was only Li Sisi who would contradict whatever her son said, and now she even managed to embarrass her in public.
Mrs. Xiao felt that she had no dignity at all as a mother-in-law.
Li Sisi originally wanted to retort, but was stopped by Xiao Yunchen. Then, seeing Marquis Xiao staring at her with a gloomy face, she puffed out her cheeks and stopped talking.
He just snorted coldly.
Next, Li Sisi and Li Nian listened to some of Mrs. Xiao’s admonitions and instructions before they finally left.
After returning to Shuixieju, Li Nian kept thinking about the heroine's early appearance.
She always felt that something was beyond her control.
Now she still has seventy years of life left, which is not a small number.
Tomorrow is the plot where Xiao Yunyu meets the heroine. Although in the original novel Xiao Yunyu did not fall in love with the heroine at first sight, the relationship between the two is more like the kind of long-lasting love that grows over time.
However, the heroine's early trip to Beijing to recognize her relatives has changed the plot of the original book, and she dare not conclude how the relationship between the hero and heroine will develop in the future.
No, she needs to hurry up and save up some health points, because she might leave at any time.
But last night she had acted coquettishly and made Xiao Yunyu agree to rest tonight...
After much hesitation, Li Nian decided to abandon her reserve and put her life at risk.
She walked up to Xiao Yunyu, blushing, and said softly, "Husband, are you tired? Do you want to take a bath together?"
Xiao Yunyu was originally leisurely reading the book that Li Nian had just brought back. When he suddenly heard her words, he looked up abruptly, his deep eyes full of surprise.
He narrowed his eyes and stared at her face with a rosy blush on her cheeks with an inquiring look.
Did the sun rise from the west? His little turtle actually dared to invite him to take a bath together?
If Li Nian knew what he was thinking at this moment, she would definitely complain about him. Hedgehog, rabbit, cat, turtle? Was he trying to put together a zoo?
But Li Nian didn't know that Xiao Yunyu's scorching gaze was staring at her so hard that it almost made smoke come out of her head.
God knows how much courage she mustered to say this! She even thought that Xiao Yunyu would use her initiative to make some strange requests later.
Xiao Yunyu's lips curled up in a secretly pleased arc, but his tone was nonchalant, even with a hint of amusement: "Do you know what you just said, what did you mean?"
"That's exactly what I mean." Li Nian lowered her head, staring at her toes, not daring to look him in the eye.
But his evil and wanton face at that moment had already appeared in my mind.
Seeing her like this, Xiao Yunyu's teasing became stronger: "My lady, do you just want to take a bath together?"
Before he could reply, Xiao Yunyu continued, "It's too crowded for two people to share one tub."
Li Nian knew very well what he was thinking at this moment.
"Just like last time..."
"What? I don't remember. Could you please remind me?" Xiao Yunyu had a wicked smile on his face, as if he would not give up until he saw her ugly and embarrassed appearance.
Li Nian really wanted to turn around and leave, but when she thought of her pitifully low health points, she had no choice but to submit to his cruelty.
She hooked her hands around Xiao Yunyu's shoulders and neck, sat opposite him, and leaned close to whisper in his ear.
Xiao Yunyu's deep peach blossom eyes gradually became filled with lust, and his throat moved unconsciously.
Suddenly he hugged her tightly, stood up, and walked towards the bathroom in the yard.
Li Nian had already given up hope in her own yard. The maids in Shuixieju were already accustomed to the two men's bold and unbridled actions. After all, Xiao Yunyu really didn't care about Li Nian's fragile face at all.
Last time, Xiao Yunyu carried her out of the bathroom and back to her room. This time, Xiao Yunyu carried her from the room to the bathroom, which made no difference.
After all, what they are going to do cannot be hidden.
Fortunately, Xiao Yunyu was only so bold in Shuixieju, and he didn't dare to be so presumptuous outside.
Li Nian actually felt a little relieved.
