The mistress of the Xiao family is a very beautiful and graceful woman.
She was wearing a dark green satin jacket and sitting on a high seat in the hall. Her thick hair was combed into a bun and adorned with a golden swallowtail butterfly jewel hairpin, making her look dignified, graceful and elegant.
Seeing the two of them walk into the house, he looked at the three of them with a stern and deep gaze.
"The daughter-in-law pays her respects to the mother-in-law. Please have some tea." Li Sisi held the tea in both hands and offered it respectfully.
Madam Xiao took the tea with an elegant smile: "Thank you for your thoughtfulness."
After Li Sisi offered the tea, Li Nian also held the tea in both hands and offered it respectfully: "The daughter-in-law pays her respects to the mother-in-law. Please have some tea."
Madam Xiao's elegant smile vanished. She didn't take the tea, but instead asked sternly, "Where's Yun Yu? Where is he fooling around at this time?"
"My dear mother-in-law, my husband has been missing since early this morning. I guess he went to take care of some important matters." Li Nian still held the teacup in both hands and answered carefully.
"Did he disappear this morning, or last night?" Madam Xiao's voice was dignified and filled with anger. "I heard from the servants that you didn't consummate your marriage last night, and Yun Yu tore down the study door and left the house. Is this true?"
Li Nian quickly knelt on her knees and said hurriedly, "My husband took down the door last night because the study door couldn't be opened from the inside for some reason, so he had no choice but to kick it open."
"As for where my husband went later, my daughter-in-law has no idea."
Li Sisi didn't expect that Nian Nian would encounter such a thing last night. The male protagonist is a piece of shit!
"You couldn't even keep your husband on your wedding night, and you still have the nerve to say you didn't know anything?"
Li Sisi listened to what Madam Xiao said, then looked at Li Nian kneeling on the ground with the teacup in his hands.
She finally realized that Madam Xiao just wanted to make things difficult for Nian Nian!
"Mother-in-law, what you said is wrong. Xiao Yunyu didn't come home on his wedding night. It's his fault. You should punish him. I'm just a weak woman, and you can't tie a grown man to the bridal chamber."
Madam Xiao's eyes sternly said, "This is not your business as a couple. Go back first."
"Yes," Xiao Yunchen responded and then pulled Li Sisi.
Li Sisi also pulled him back and whispered, "Husband, this is all my brother's fault. How can he punish my sister-in-law when he has such bad character?"
"How dare you!" Madam Xiao slammed the table. "As a newlywed bride, you're actually controlling my behavior!"
"My daughter-in-law doesn't dare, but what you did is really unfair!" Li Sisi faced Madam Xiao's cold gaze and spoke with confidence.
"My dear, mother is only asking about the private affairs of sister-in-law and elder brother. It is not appropriate for you and me to interfere in this matter." After Xiao Yunchen persuaded Li Sisi, he said to Madam Xiao: "Mother, calm down. Chen Fu is just too straightforward. I will talk to her when I get back."
Li Nian knew Li Sisi's temper and was afraid that she would disgust her mother-in-law as soon as she entered the door, so she hurriedly said, "Mother-in-law and second brother are right. Second brother, please be obedient and follow second brother back first."
"I won't go back. This is not your fault in the first place. Why should the person who did the wrong be able to live happily outside while you, the victim, have to be punished?" Li Sisi shook off Xiao Yunchen's hand, unwilling to accept it and continued to argue.
"Chen Fu!" Li Nian suddenly shouted, then softened his voice: "Be obedient and go back first. I can handle my own affairs!"
"But..." Li Sisi wanted to say something else, but when she saw Li Nian's expression, she stopped talking. Finally, she said angrily, "Then I'll wait for you in the yard."
After saying that, she turned around and walked out angrily.
Xiao Yunchen followed behind her and whispered a lesson: "My lady, you need to change your temper. In the future, you should be more respectful to your elders and stop acting on impulse."
Li Sisi was already unhappy, and listening to his low mumbling made her even more annoyed.
"Am I wrong? This matter was originally Xiao Yunyu's fault. You should have caught the culprit and given him a good beating! Why are you making things difficult for a new bride?"
Xiao Yunchen frowned, his tone becoming colder: "Mother didn't embarrass my sister-in-law, she just reprimanded her. It was you who contradicted your elders in public, which was wrong."
"Isn't that embarrassing? You deliberately made someone kneel on the ground and wouldn't let them get up, and then you said you couldn't keep your husband. So, is it reasonable to let your wife spend her wedding night alone?"
"Chen Fu! Are you going to cause trouble with me and mother because of my eldest brother's family affairs?"
Li Sisi didn't care about his cold attitude or whether she was annoyed or not.
"Yes, Nian Nian is my sister, no one can let her suffer any injustice! You can bully me, but you can't bully Nian Nian!"
