After all that commotion, Xiao Qingyin almost couldn't get up.
Yi Shuihan, however, was incredibly energetic, as if he had taken a super tonic.
Seeing her glaring at him angrily, he squeezed her hand and said considerately, "You're so tired, don't get up. I'll bring the food over, and we'll eat in the room."
Xiao Qingyin threw a pillow at him.
Who wants to eat in the room!
With that insatiable look on her face, by the end she'd probably be eating something else entirely, not even the food.
Yi Shuihan caught the pillow lightly and skillfully, and said with a meaningful look, "It seems that I didn't put in enough effort."
Xiao Qingyin: "..."
She couldn't take it anymore and kicked the man off the bed.
"roll!"
She didn't want to see him before her return visit to her parents' home!
Seeing that he had angered the man, Yi Shuihan wisely stopped provoking him, but there was no way he would leave.
He still has to clean up the mess.
After getting the water, he asked Xiao Qingyin, "Will you go wash up by yourself?"
Xiao Qingyin certainly wanted to go by herself, but she was so tired that she didn't want to move a single finger.
I have no choice but to entrust myself to this guy.
Fortunately, he knew when to stop and didn't continue his reckless behavior.
Otherwise, they would not only miss lunch, but they might not even be able to eat dinner.
After washing up, Yi Shuihan said solicitously, "Let me help you style your hair."
Xiao Qingyin looked at her with suspicion: "You can?"
"I just learned it."
With someone to serve her, she naturally didn't want to do anything herself.
"Alright, then I'll leave it to you."
Fifteen minutes later, looking at the hair and makeup in the mirror that looked even better than her own, she couldn't help but praise, "Tony, your skills are excellent."
Yi Shuihan: "???"
What is Tony the teacher?
Is this a new nickname you gave him?
With that in mind, he asked the question.
Xiao Qingyin laughed and said, "Tony is a hairstylist in our area. He designs and creates hairstyles for people. A good Tony is like a good housekeeper; you can only meet one in a million."
Yi Shuihan's expression darkened slightly.
"You mean, your hairstylist, Tony, can touch your hair?"
"yes."
"Including shampooing?"
"The hair washing is usually done by another guy."
Yi Shuihan: "!!!"
He seems to have greatly underestimated the openness of later generations.
The woman's hair was being styled by a strange man!
He almost blurted out, "How many Tony hairdressers do you have?"
His remaining rationality stopped him.
Asking will only make you more likely to have a heart attack.
I'd better not ask.
After Xiao Qingyin finished speaking, she noticed that he was silent. She looked in the mirror and saw a face as black as the bottom of a pot.
I instantly understood what this guy was thinking.
"You're not even jealous of Tony the hairstylist, are you?"
She turned her head and teased.
"Wouldn't that make you so jealous?"
Yi Shuihan: "???"
What about gastroenterologists?
"Colonoscopy is performed by gastroenterologists. Do you know what colonoscopy is?"
Yi Shuihan shook his head.
I had a bad feeling.
After hearing Xiao Qingyin's explanation, he almost broke apart.
Such examinations still exist in later generations?
Is this something a human being could do?
"you……"
He hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
Xiao Qingyin knew exactly what tricks he had up his sleeve, and chuckled, "I never went to the gastroenterology department, and I was still young when I died, so I never had a colonoscopy."
Yi Shuihan breathed a sigh of relief.
I felt I couldn't continue talking to her.
Otherwise, who knows what other terrifying topics this woman might bring up?
"Alright, Mom and Dad are waiting for us, let's hurry over."
Xiao Qingyin covered her mouth and chuckled.
When the two arrived at the dining hall, Marquis Yong'an and Princess Zhaoyang were already waiting there.
Xiao Qingyin served tea to the two of them.
Princess Zhaoyang took off the jade bracelet from her hand, put it on her wrist, and gave her a heavy red envelope.
The Marquis of Yong'an gave her a large bunch of keys, a box of seals, and a thick ledger.
"These are the keys to the various treasuries in the mansion and the steward's seal. From now on, this household will be in your care."
After saying that, he gave Xiao Qingyin a general introduction to the various businesses in the mansion and who was currently in charge of managing them.
Xiao Qingyin suddenly felt immense pressure.
She secretly gave Yi Shuihan a look.
It was agreed beforehand that she would only need to look at the accounts each month and wouldn't have to worry about anything else.
Yi Shuihan returned a reassuring look.
Only then did she feel relieved enough to accept it.
"Yes, Dad, I will take good care of it."
Princess Zhaoyang chuckled and said, "If you're too busy, just leave it to Jiuheng."
Xiao Qingyin nodded hurriedly: "Mother, don't worry, I won't be polite to him."
Yi Shuihan looked up at the sky.
Why would Mother think that he, the ruler of a country, would have more free time than Xiao Qingyin?
That's an extreme case of turning one's elbow outwards.
This becomes even more apparent when you sit down to eat.
His mother kept putting food into Xiao Qingyin's bowl, but she didn't put a single green vegetable in his bowl.
He didn't even have the kitchen prepare his favorite dishes.
This made him realize with absolute clarity that he had fallen out of favor.
Others forget their mothers once they have a wife.
He's a mother who's forgotten her son now that she has a wife.
After they finished eating and returned to the courtyard to rest, he took Xiao Qingyin's hand and said, "You'd better treat me well from now on, okay?"
Xiao Qingyin was completely confused.
"My parents have both passed away, and only you love me now."
Xiao Qingyin was utterly speechless.
I've never seen a husband act like an abandoned puppy on the second day of his marriage.
