Why does it look like Brother Zu? I already have such a close relationship with Brother Chu.
Murong Qinghe's face was flushed, and she was very puzzled.
Am I really a fickle woman?
At this moment, Chu Youzhao also had a strange expression. No wonder so many beautiful women around her brother-in-law liked him. Qinghe had just spent a night with him, and the usually proud girl was now as docile as a kitten.
She wasn't used to being held like that for so long, so she quickly got up and said, "We need to get up early; we still have to serve tea to our parents."
"Oh dear, I almost forgot." Murong Qinghe blushed, hurriedly stood up, then cried out in pain, clutching her lower abdomen. Her once cheerful eyebrows were now tightly furrowed.
"What's wrong?" Seeing her pained expression, Chu Youzhao was very worried.
Murong Qinghe bit her lip and gave her a coquettish glance: "Brother Chu, how dare you ask? It's all because of you last night..."
He's driving me crazy...
Of course, she was too embarrassed to say this to Brother Chu.
Chu Youzhao smiled awkwardly, thinking to herself that she had once again taken the blame for her brother-in-law.
Murong Qinghe was, after all, a soldier, not the kind of delicate young lady. After a while, she quickly got dressed and then carefully took a white handkerchief from the bed sheet. It looked as if a cluster of bright plum blossoms had bloomed on it.
"What is this?" Chu Youzhao came closer. She hadn't seen this piece of cloth because Murong Qinghe had used it as a pad last night.
"Don't concern yourself with a girl's things." Murong Qinghe instantly tucked the white handkerchief behind her back, her face flushed crimson.
Chu Youzhao suddenly realized what it was. After all, her mother-in-law had taught her some related knowledge, and it was something to prove her wife's innocence.
She was feeling a bit conflicted. She and Murong Qinghe had always been very close, so close that even knowing her own identity, she still wanted to marry her.
If it were any other man who bullied Qinghe's younger sister, she would probably be jealous, angry, and heartbroken for a very long time. But if it were her brother-in-law, she wouldn't feel anything like that at all.
"Brother Chu, get up quickly!" Seeing that she was still in a daze, Murong Qinghe said coquettishly. It wouldn't be good if her in-laws thought she was lazy. Today was the first day, so she had to make a good impression.
Chu Youzhao chuckled awkwardly as she got up and quickly dressed: "Let's go."
Murong Qinghe had just taken a step when she suddenly hummed in agreement, bent slightly, and frowned slightly.
Chu Youzhao quickly helped her up: "Are you alright?"
"It's all your fault!" Murong Qinghe snorted, blushing as she shook off her hand and fled as if she were running away.
Chu Youzhao: "..."
Brother-in-law, can't you be a little gentler? I'm still a little worried about you.
Murong Qinghe was injured and could not walk fast, so he was quickly caught up by Chu Youzhao.
It seemed that what happened last night was too embarrassing, and now that it was broad daylight, Murong Qinghe was too embarrassed to be too intimate with her, so he let her walk in front of him instead of walking side by side.
Chu Youzhao also had her own thoughts on her mind, so she didn't press the matter.
Murong Qinghe followed behind, the scene from yesterday kept flashing through his mind, and his heart was beating faster and faster.
However, looking at Chu Youzhao's somewhat thin back, a hint of confusion suddenly flashed in her eyes.
Last night, Brother Chu was clearly very strong, so why does he seem a little different now?
However, this question only flashed through her mind, and her girlish nature made her too embarrassed to think about it in detail.
Soon the two arrived at the main hall, where Chu Zhongtian and Qin Wanru were already seated at the head of the table, seemingly waiting for their arrival.
Qin Wanru was somewhat absent-minded, worried that she had messed up what happened last night.
Especially when she learned that Zu'an had left in a hurry in the middle of the night, she was so disoriented that she almost boiled the porridge in the pot dry.
However, things seemed peaceful in the bridal chamber. There was no sound of arguing, and Murong Qinghe didn't run back to her parents' home crying. So... everything should be alright, right?
Just as she was feeling uneasy, she saw Murong Qinghe and Chu Youzhao walk in with a shy expression. She bowed respectfully to the two of them and then offered them tea: "Father, Mother, please have some tea."
"Good, good, good." Chu Zhongtian laughed heartily, liking his daughter-in-law more and more the more he looked at her.
Qin Wanru felt completely relieved when she saw the shy look on Murong Qinghe's face.
As a woman, she was all too familiar with that expression.
She must have been very satisfied with her wedding night last night, because now she looks at You Zhao with such lustful eyes.
That kid Zuan is really quite capable. No wonder back in Mingyue City, when Chu Yan had nothing, she could never leave him.
Ah, Chu Yan is much happier than her mother.
She glared at her husband beside her, then just laughed and laughed, grinning foolishly.
Chu Zhongtian felt a chill run down his spine and quickly sat up straight, his expression turning serious.
When Murong Qinghe served tea to Qin Wanru, her initial anger instantly turned into a smile: "Qinghe, my dear, there's a pot of 'many children, many blessings' porridge here, come and drink it."
A maidservant standing nearby said, "Last night, Madam brewed all sorts of precious medicinal herbs all night long."
"Stop talking nonsense!" Qin Wanru glared at the maid, but was still quite satisfied with the maid's tact and understanding.
"Thank you, Mother." Murong Qinghe's cheeks were slightly flushed, especially when she thought about how she had been filled with porridge last night. She thought that whether she drank the porridge or not would not make any difference.
...
While the Chu family was enjoying themselves, Zu An summoned many important officials and teachers from the academy to discuss important matters in the palace.
Many people noticed that Yu Rui and the other eight elders stood respectfully below the stage, and they were all deeply moved.
