Chapter 1441: Serving Tea
Early the next morning, Siwa ran excitedly to Old Man Su's yard to report the good news.
"Grandpa, grandma, my mom and grandpa won't leave!" Siwa announced loudly and happily.
The child was afraid that his mother and grandfather were gone, and he was so anxious that he couldn't sleep well all night.
As soon as it was dawn, he ran to the gate of King Xiaoyao's courtyard and stood guard there.
Old Man Su and Old Lady Su looked at each other.
It’s true!
"It's not good if you don't leave!" Old man Su said with a smile.
Old Madam Su also smiled and said, "It's better if you don't leave."
As for the word "all" in Siwa's mouth, the couple didn't care.
They thought that since King Xiaoyao had finally found his daughter, it would be okay for her to stay in the mansion for a while.
Soon, people from all branches of the Su family came to the yard of Old Man Su and his wife, waiting for the bride to offer tea and recognize her relatives.
Su Laowu and Princess Huaning arrived last.
As soon as Princess Huaning entered the room and saw that everyone was there, her face immediately turned red with embarrassment.
He couldn't help but glare at Su Laowu.
——It’s all your fault!
Su Laowu: Yeah, it’s my fault.
With a smile on his lips, his face was full of vigor and vitality.
The two exchanged glances, and Mrs. Su's face was filled with relief.
Old Mrs. Su was naturally happy that her son and daughter-in-law lived in harmony and love.
The other members of the Su family were also in high spirits.
Shi Liu brought up the tea with a smile and said, "Fifth Young Master, Fifth Young Madam, please serve tea to the Master and Madam."
A maid placed a cushion on the ground. Su Laowu and Princess Huaning looked at each other and knelt on the cushion one after another.
It has to be said that this was the first time in the Su family that such a solemn tea-serving ceremony took place.
The Su family felt both curious and happy.
Su Laowu picked up a cup of tea, knelt in front of Old Man Su, and said respectfully, "Dad, please have some tea."
"Okay." Old Man Su took the tea and took a sip, then said, "You are an adult after getting married. You must live a good life in the future, treat your wife well, and take on the responsibilities of a man to his wife and children."
"Obey your command, son." Su Laowu said with a firm face.
Princess Huaning also picked up a cup of tea, offered it with both hands, and said respectfully, "Dad, please have some tea."
"Okay." Old man Su took the tea from his daughter-in-law with a smile and took a sip.
Su Laowu and Princess Huaning then offered tea to Old Madam Su one after another.
After drinking tea, Old Lady Su gave Princess Huaning a jade bracelet that was all lustrous and translucent.
As soon as Princess Huaning saw the bracelet, she knew it was worth a fortune.
I couldn't help but hesitate.
She knew that the Su family started late.
When the previous sisters-in-law married into the Su family, the mother-in-law certainly did not give them such valuable things.
Princess Huaning was worried that if her mother-in-law gave it to her, the other sisters-in-law would feel uncomfortable.
Tang Bao smiled and said, "Sister-in-law Wu, please accept it quickly. Look—"
Tang Bao said, shaking her wrist.
——On her slender white wrist, she wore a jade bracelet of the same texture.
The circumference of the jade bracelet is smaller than that of Princess Huaning. When worn on Tang Bao's wrist, it emits a crystal clear light.
"This bracelet was specially made by our mother. You and your sisters-in-law all have one." Tang Bao smiled and said, "I have one too."
The sisters-in-law of the Su family also smiled and said, "We all have them."
Old Mrs. Su also smiled and said, "Hurry and take it."
"Thank you, mother." Princess Huaning happily took the bracelet.
Then, she took off a red jade bracelet from her wrist and handed it to Qingyin beside her, and then put the bracelet given by Old Lady Su directly on her wrist.
Seeing this, the more Mrs. Su looked at her daughter-in-law, the more satisfied she became.
Not only is she of noble status and without the slightest airs, she is also thoughtful and considerate, able to put herself in other people's shoes.
From this, it can be seen that the daughter-in-law cares very much about her husband's family, the Su family.
Moreover, the impatience to put on the bracelet is an attitude - an attitude of wanting to integrate into the Su family immediately.
After Princess Huaning put on the bracelet, she took the tray from Qingxian's hand.
There were two pairs of shoes and socks on the tray.
"This is a gift from your daughter-in-law to show her filial piety to you, parents. I hope you won't dislike it." Princess Huaning said respectfully.
On the day the bride recognizes her parents-in-law, it is a custom for her to present her handmade needlework to them.
A maid immediately appeared and took the tray.
Old Mrs. Su reached out, looked at the shoes and socks on the tray, and nodded with satisfaction.
Then, he said softly to Princess Huaning, "Once you marry into the Su family, you will be a member of the Su family. We don't have so many rules. As long as our family lives in harmony and happiness, that's all that matters."
As Old Mrs. Su spoke, she glanced at Mrs. Su.
Then, he continued, "Your sister-in-law is in charge of the affairs of the Marquis' Mansion. If there is anything missing in your yard or if there is anything wrong, just tell your sister-in-law."
"I understand, mother." Princess Huaning said in a light voice.
Mrs. Su looked at her mother-in-law with gratitude.
The mother-in-law said this at this time, clearly to support her, fearing that the princess would rely on her status and not take her, her sister-in-law, seriously.
By the way, there is another meaning behind what Old Lady Su did.
She was telling her sons and daughters-in-law that the Su family's title would be inherited by the eldest branch in the future.
In fact, when Old Lady Su handed over the huge Marquisate to Mrs. Su to manage, she was telling everyone that the title of Marquisate would belong to Boss Su in the future.
The brothers of the Su family all thought it was natural and had no other thoughts at all.
It has to be said that even Su Ersao Qian Yuemei, although she envied the eldest wife, never thought of seizing the title.
Princess Huaning was so smart that she naturally understood what her mother-in-law meant.
However, there was no displeasure in my heart.
She has always known that the Su family's siblings have always had a good relationship.
And, I am also envious.
Now that she has become the daughter-in-law of the Su family, she is filled with joy.
Su Laowu personally helped Princess Huaning to stand up, and the couple bowed to Mrs. Su.
Sister-in-law Su took Princess Huaning's hand and said with a smile, "We're all family from now on. You know, I'm from the countryside and don't understand the rules and etiquette of a wealthy family... Mother entrusted the inner courtyard to me, and I'm just forcing it. I'll definitely need some help from my brothers and sisters-in-law..."
After Mrs. Su finished speaking, she gave Princess Huaning a piece of palace satin.
When other sisters-in-law came to marry into the family, Mrs. Su gave them cloth.
So, when it came to Princess Huaning, in order to avoid conflicts, Mrs. Su still gave her the cloth.
The only difference is that they used to give cotton cloth, but now they give palace satin.
Princess Huaning thanked Mrs. Su Da and bowed to Mrs. Su Er.
Su Ersao Qian Yuemei's face was full of excitement.
Although I have a sister-in-law of noble status, I feel very pressured.
But the princess has to bow to me and respectfully call me second sister-in-law, which makes her feel proud, doesn't it?
"Finally, Uncle Five is getting married!" Qian Yuemei said in an exaggerated voice, "Princess, you don't know that when Uncle Five passed the imperial examination, the matchmakers who went to the Su family to propose marriage were almost trampling over the door..."
