The next morning.
"Thump!"
"Thump!"
"Thump!"
Despite his dark circles, Zhao Cheng continued practicing pitch-pot, and he was already able to hit five to seven out of ten arrows.
It must be said that the pace of progress is quite fast.
It is the power of love.
Seeing that Zhou Nuo was still asleep, Zhao Cheng didn't dare to delay for a moment. He quickly tidied up the scattered arrows and continued with the next round of practice.
Zhao Cheng himself admired himself.
Let me put it this way, the last time I worked this hard on something was when I first started making soap.
Another half hour passed.
The sun had already risen, and Zhou Nuo finally turned over, opened his eyes to face Zhao Cheng, and said with some surprise, "You... practiced all night?"
Zhao Cheng didn't even glance at her, focusing intently on the pitch-pot game, and said, "What else? You won't let me go to bed until I've practiced enough? Am I supposed to sleep on the floor? That would be so embarrassing!"
Zhou Nuo looked at Zhao Cheng with interest, smiled knowingly, and said, "Why didn't I realize you were so honest before?"
"Thump!"
Zhao Cheng made another shot and excitedly asked, "So what's mine?"
Zhou Nuo said quietly, "I thought you would climb into my bed while I was sleeping!"
Zhao Cheng froze, his hand holding the arrow still in his hand. He then turned to look at Zhou Nuo and said, "You're killing me by attacking my spirit!"
Zhou Nuo turned over and looked up, saying, "I gave you a chance, but you suddenly became obedient and didn't know how to cherish it."
"Your grandma!!!"
Zhao Cheng shouted, threw the arrow aside, and ran to the bed.
"Thump!"
He had just pressed down on Zhou Nuo when he heard the crisp sound and exclaimed, "I've mastered it! I can hit it with any shot now!"
"Get down here quickly, keep practicing while you're in good form!"
"Practice my ass! I'd be a complete idiot if I kept practicing!"
Zhou Nuo protested, "It's not that I don't want to give it to you, but you've been staying up all night, you must be exhausted. You should catch up on some sleep first!"
Zhao Cheng said fiercely, "I don't need to catch up on sleep, I just need to recharge!"
Although Zhou Nuo didn't understand what it meant, he knew from Zhao Cheng's posture that things were serious, so he quickly shrank back to the head of the bed and shouted, "Today is the main day of Changli's full moon banquet, you should go out and greet the guests!"
Zhao Cheng pinned him down, exuding domineering power, and shouted, "I'll finish this clockwork job first before I go to serve customers!!"
"oops!!"
"ah!"
"ah……"
"Thump!!!"
On a sunny day in early October, the sun was warm and the temperature was just right, neither too hot nor too cold.
It was a cool autumn day, filled with the playful chirping of cicadas, and the creaking of the bed frame under its own weight.
People were gradually entering the Right Prime Minister's residence, and people were also going in and out of the rooms in the inner courtyard.
Exhilarating.
Zhou Nuo got dressed, pulled Zhao Cheng off the bed, and said with a flushed face, "Get up quickly, don't sleep. If we delay important matters today, your family will blame me."
Zhao Cheng said lazily, "What do you mean, my family? They're your family now too."
Zhou Nuo said, "My brother isn't here."
Sensing the disappointment in Zhou Nuo's words, Zhao Cheng cheered up, sat up, hugged Zhou Nuo, and said, "Zhou Chuan will be your brother from now on, and also my brother. My parents and my brothers will also be your parents and brothers from now on."
As she spoke, Zhao Cheng cupped Zhou Nuo's face and tidied her messy hair, saying, "Cheer up, come with me to greet the guests."
Zhou Nuo nodded heavily.
Seeing that Zhou Nuo was in a better mood, Zhao Cheng called out, "Xia Qi!"
"Master has arrived!" Xia Qi's voice came from outside the door.
Taking advantage of the break, Zhao Cheng asked, "Am I good?"
"Shameless!" Zhou Nuo turned his face away.
Zhao Cheng chuckled and patted Zhou Nuo's belly, saying, "You're a master archer, and I'm a sharpshooter. Let's see who's more accurate."
"Stop like that, Xia Qi should come in!"
Just then, Xia Qi's voice came from outside the door: "Master, should I go in... or not?"
Zhao Cheng said, "You can go in now."
Xia Qi asked again, "Then I really made it in?"
"Hurry up!"
Snap!
Xia Qi opened the door, glanced at Zhao Cheng and Zhou Nuo, and turned back to say, "You two come in quickly and help the master and the third concubine wash up and change their clothes!"
The family is growing, and Chunqin and Donghua each have their own things to do. Now even Xiaqi and Qiushu have maids to serve them.
In order to help the servants distinguish the relationships between the women in the inner courtyard, Zhao Cheng used the term "auntie".
After tidying up, Xia Qi led the two girls to wait outside the door.
Zhou Nuo was dressed in a red robe, looking very festive. Before leaving, she suddenly remembered something and picked up a bow and arrow from the table.
Zhao Cheng exclaimed in surprise, "What are you going to do with this?!"
Zhou Nuo said, "I'll accompany you to entertain guests!"
Zhao Cheng said, "No need to bring weapons!"
Zhou Nuo frowned and said, "With so many people coming, what if someone is mixed in with you and wants to harm you?"
"There's He Zhi, Heng Wenhao, Zhao Wu, Zhao Yan, and most importantly, my sister!"
Zhao Cheng grasped Zhou Nuo's hand, then gently took her bow and arrow, saying, "You just need to be a good mistress."
Zhou Nuo asked, "Am I the mistress of the house?"
“Xiao Nuo, although you are a concubine, there are not so many rules in the Zhao family. Besides, right now... A Yun is still in her postpartum period, and Chun Qin and Cai E are pregnant. You are the only one who can show your face in public, so you are the mistress of the house!”
"Hmph, I'm not as eloquent as you."
Zhao Cheng quickly put down the bow and arrow, and took Zhou Nuo out.
With Zhou Nuo's help, Park Yoo-hee's life became much easier, and she could spend more time taking care of Zhao Changli.
