The rain came and went, crackling until dawn when it finally stopped.

Qing Yuan has already packed up and dressed up, ready to go to the bridal chamber to serve.

The maidservant who served her opened the window, looked at the still slightly damp ground and the pale sky and said with a smile: "The Third Master has chosen a really good date for the wedding. The sun was shining brightly a few days ago, and it started to rain only after the bride entered the house and the guests left. But who would have thought that the rain only lasted one night, and when the sun rose and the bride was about to recognize her relatives, the rain stopped. The masters of Zhaoming Temple are really amazing!"

This is a good sign.

Qing Yuan also thinks Yu Tang is very lucky.

She smiled and said, "This date was not calculated by Zhaoming Temple. It was set by the Third Elder himself according to the Emperor's calendar."

It can be seen that the third elder is more powerful.

She also warned the maids around her: "From now on, you can't call her 'bride' or 'bride'. You have to call her Third Madam."

All the maids responded in unison.

Qingyan came over with two maids.

Qing Yuan looked at the sky and thought that Pei Yan and Yu Tang should not get up so early, so he invited Qing Yan to sit in the house and asked her why she came so early.

Qingyan is two years older than Qingyuan, so she should be released. But she is unwilling to leave the house, and asks Pei Laoan to comb her hair when Yutang enters the house. If Yutang wants her, she will stay with him, and if Yutang is not interested in promoting her, she will go to Pei Laoan to serve him.

She smiled and said, "It's not because I'm worried that you won't be able to come here, I came here early to see if there's anything I can do to help you."

Qing Yuan poured her a cup of tea and said with a smile, "I don't know what the Third Madam will arrange yet. We have to wait for the main wife to give the order."

Qingyan was not in a hurry and asked Qingyuan for information: "I heard that the Third Madam only brought two maids, one named Xing'er and the other named Lan'er. She didn't bring any dowry. Have you dealt with these two maids? Do you know what their personalities are?"

Pei Yan and Pei Laoan gave Yu Tang face, and the dowry list stated that there were four maids and two families as dowry. However, those around them knew that the only ones brought from the Yu family were Xing'er and Lan'er.

Qingyuan had received a lot of care from Qingyan when she entered the house. She also intended to help Qingyan. Hearing this, she said: "I used to have some friendship with the third wife's Shuangtao, but she got married in September. This time I This is my first time dealing with the two young girls here, so I don’t know what their temperament is. However, the third wife is very tolerant, so she must not be that tricky.”

Being able to become the head maid in charge of one side of Pei Mansion, Qingyan is not afraid of anyone's tricks, but is only afraid of not getting Yutang's trust.

The two of them talked about Yu Tang's chambermaid again.

The other two maids that came with Yu Tang's "dowry" were picked by Pei Yan himself. They had never seen them before and didn't know which farm of the Pei family they were picked from or whether they were bought from outside.

Qingyuan and Qingyan were both a little worried.

Qingyan had no choice but to comfort Qingyuan: "Leizhi and Liuxu are both serving the Third Madam, and the two dowries are also acquainted with each other. If we are fooled by the people around the Third Madam, we will have no face to stay in the Pei Mansion."

Qing Yuan also thinks so.

She smiled and nodded. Seeing that it was getting late, she called a maid to accompany Qingyan, and took Liuxu and Leizhi to Pei Yan and Yutang's new house.

Unexpectedly, Pei Yan had already gotten up and had finished washing and dressing himself. He was using a pair of small gilded scissors to prune the orchid that was placed in Yu Tang's study for viewing.

Qing Yuan hurriedly stepped forward and saluted Pei Yan, and glanced at Pei Yan quickly out of the corner of his eye.

Pei Yan was wearing a silver-red silk gown, with a smile in his eyes and eyebrows, which made him look elegant and graceful. Qing Yuan, who had forced himself to ignore Pei Yan's beauty, couldn't help but feel his heart pounding. Then he said, "Third Master, should we put the hot water for Third Madam's washing here first or pour it into the basin?"

Pei Yan hesitated for a moment at such a simple question, looked at the clock in the living room, and then said, "Wait a moment, I'll go wake up the third wife."

Qing Yuan and the others naturally did not dare to move or look around.

Everyone was silent and held their breath, and could faintly hear the movements inside the room.

Yu Tang murmured lazily, Pei Yan whispered patiently and gently, and after a while, the rustling sound of clothes being put on could be heard.

It can be guessed that they should be putting on their clothes themselves.

Qing Yuan's trusted maid couldn't help but whisper to Qing Yuan, "Wasn't the servant who served the Third Madam on duty last night?"

Qing Yuan was afraid that Pei Yan had heard it, so he glared at the little maid angrily, then turned to Qing Lian and whispered, "You guys go in and comb Third Madam's hair later, and don't look around."

Qinglian and Qingrong both smiled with their lips pursed, their faces flushed, and nodded continuously.

After a while, the noise in the inner room stopped.

They heard Pei Yan shout "Come in".

Qing Yuan lowered her hands and closed her eyes, then led the maids into the inner room.

I don't know when the window frame of the inner room was opened, and the cold October wind blew in through the window. Fortunately, the stove had been lit in the house, so I not only didn't feel cold, but the cold air also made me feel refreshed.

Qing Yuan looked up again and saw that Yu Tang was also wearing a plain silver-red silk dress like Pei Yan. Although the styles were different for men and women, it was obvious that they were made of the same material.

She was already sitting in front of the dressing table, her hair hastily tied up in a bun and held up with a gold hairpin that had only a drop of oil on it. The bed had been made very clean, and the dragon and phoenix quilt had been folded and neatly placed on the bed.

Seeing Qing Yuan, she smiled at him.

The maids only thought that Yu Tang had a beautiful smile like a flower, and they were all amazed and called her "beautiful" in their hearts. Only Qing Yuan, who had more contact with her, noticed it, and she smiled rather shyly.

Is this what all brides should be like?

Qing Yuan also smiled at Yu Tang, and began to instruct the maids to get water for Yu Tang to wash her face, comb her hair, put on makeup, and clean the room.

Yu Tang was naturally very cooperative, and even listened to Qinglian's advice on what kind of jewelry to wear, and chose a full set of lace golden phoenix. But the maids who cleaned the room felt a little uncomfortable.

Pei Yan sat on the bed the whole time, watching Qinglian and the others combing Yu Tang's hair.

So should I make the bed or not?

The two little maids looked at Qing Yuan for help.

Based on Qing Yuan's experience in serving Pei Yan, he certainly couldn't disturb Pei Yan at this time.

She shook her head gently towards the two maids, and when Yu Tang was dressed, Liu Xu and Lei Zhi came in with breakfast.

Don’t talk while eating and don’t talk while sleeping.

Although Yu Tang and Pei Yan didn't speak, Pei Yan was taking care of Yu Tang from beginning to end. He asked Qing Yuan to serve Yu Tang a bowl of black chicken soup, and then he put a piece of snow cake on Yu Tang's plate. When he was almost done eating, he said to Yu Tang for the first time, "Eat more."

Is this a bad thing?

Yu Tang was too embarrassed to raise his head, but he was secretly resenting it in his heart.

He was so strong last night, but now he bows to her, she won't forgive him easily!

Thinking so, and seeing Pei Yan treating her like this, she couldn't help but feel soft and sweet in her heart. She felt that what happened last night wasn't so difficult to accept. Moreover, she consciously or unconsciously wanted to get closer to Pei Yan, as if she would be very happy as long as she was close to him.

Why is she so useless?

Yu Tang was a little depressed and fiercely used chopsticks to stir the pastries in the bowl.

After finally finishing the meal, Yu Tang took Liu Xu and Lei Zhi and followed Pei Yan out of the bridal chamber.

It seems that Pei Yan is preparing to worship his ancestors and recognize his relatives first.

Qing Yuan hurriedly instructed a few maids who continued to clean up in the room, and followed.

The Pei family's ancestral hall is at the foot of Tianmu Mountain, but there is also a smaller ancestral hall in the Pei family's ancestral home. They usually burn incense here, and go to the ancestral hall at the foot of Tianmu Mountain on festivals such as Qingming Festival.

Yu Tang can only be officially included in the family tree three months after his marriage, and only then will he need to go to the ancestral temple in Tianmu Mountain. Today's ancestral worship will be held in the small ancestral temple in Pei Mansion.

She followed Pei Yan slowly towards the small ancestral hall. The road was shaded by green trees and the scenery was picturesque. Everything she saw was different and similar.

Yu Tang couldn't help but feel grateful to Pei Yan.

If he hadn't let her get familiar with the Pei family in advance, she would definitely be confused and get lost when she married into the family.

Pei Yan was a little worried about her health, so he turned around and asked her in a low voice: "Are you okay?"

Yu Tang's face suddenly felt hot, and he tried to distance himself from the matter by saying, "I, I'm fine. You should lead the way ahead, and don't keep the elders waiting."

Pei Yan smiled, but suddenly stopped.

Yu Tang was caught off guard and almost bumped into him.

She glared at Pei Yan angrily.

Pei Yan, however, had a smile in his eyes and looked at her with indulgence.

It reminded her of the way he had kissed her last night.

She was still so stupid that she didn't know anything. She just stared at his handsome face in a daze. Not only did she let him succeed, but she also took the initiative to move closer...

Yu Tang's face became even hotter.

She whispered cowardly, "What are you going to do?"

He doesn't want to do anything.

He just wanted to touch her.

Pei Yan thought about it and reached out to touch Yu Tang's face, which was as white and smooth as a freshly peeled egg.

The maids' stunned faces were all visible to Yu Tang.

She was extremely embarrassed and slapped Pei Yan's hand away without thinking.

Pei Yan was stunned.

Yu Tang was also stunned.

Of course she knew that what happened last night was what every couple should do. Before leaving the room, her mother was afraid that she didn't understand, so she asked Mrs. Wu to talk to her for a long time. It's not that she didn't like Pei Yan treating her like this or that... but knowing is one thing, and experiencing is another. She couldn't help but feel a little panicked, so... she didn't mean it.

Yu Tang lowered his head and drew his eyes.

From Pei Yan's perspective, he could see her raven-blue eyelashes drooping limply as if they had been rained on, and a bit wolfish, which made him feel a little sympathetic for no reason, and then he found it funny.

This little girl stretched out her claws as soon as she married him, and would pick on him if she was not satisfied.

But he loved Yu Tang who was so energetic.

He simply hugged her and whispered in her ear: "Okay! You've become so bold that you dare to hit me. Just wait and see how I'll deal with you when I get back to my room!"

The scene when Pei Yan said this last time emerged in Yu Tang's mind.

Her legs went weak, and if Pei Yan hadn't held her, she felt like she would have stumbled.

"You, you, don't even think about it!" Yu Tang said, pushed Pei Yan away and ran away.

Pei Yan's laughter came from behind her.

That laughter was not only loud but also cheerful.
