"Hmph, just brag!" After spending the day with Yuan Bohua, Zhou Qiongyue felt that the only thing they could do was to bicker with each other. Every time there was a hint of ambiguity between them, Yuan Bohua would suddenly say something that Zhou Qiongyue couldn't help but retort.
Zhou Qiongyue sighed in her heart, it seems that they can only be a pair of happy enemies. However, after learning about the Yuan family's affairs, Zhou Qiongyue decided to be more tolerant of Yuan Bohua in the future. After all, love the house and love the dog!
Of course, Yuan Bohua is the "crow". She admires the loyalty and bravery of the Yuan family, so she is willing to give in to their son a little.
The first day after the wedding passed like this. On the second day, with Yuan Bohua's support, Zhou Qiongyue met the servants and housekeepers of the mansion and also took over the account books and property of the inner courtyard of Prince Fu'an's mansion. Zhou Qiongyue took a quick look at it and knew that the situation of this prince's mansion was much better than that of the Cheng'en Marquis's mansion.
Yuan Bohua gave Zhou Qiongyue an additional subsidy of 100,000 taels of silver, allowing her to buy whatever she liked.
This time Zhou Qiongyue didn't refuse. Now that she was spending Yuan Bohua's money, it was perfectly legitimate. If she didn't spend it, would she save it for other women? That would be a bit more arduous, so she should just keep it all!
Soon the third day of visiting the parents-in-law arrived. Yuan Bohua got up early in the morning. He felt that it would be bad to go back to the parents-in-law too late today.
After Yuan Bohua had finished cleaning up and had breakfast set up in the house, he began to go into the inner room, going in and out several times. The princess was still sleeping soundly, showing no sign of waking up. Yuan Bohua could only step forward and shout, "Yue'er, wake up, wake up."
"Hmm... what time is it?" Zhou Qiongyue was genuinely sleepy. A newly married woman would always be sleepy. She was lucky to be awake enough to ask this question.
Yuan Bohua glanced at the hourglass beside him and whispered softly into Zhou Qiongyue's ear, "It's already the end of the Mao hour, almost the Chen hour."
Zhou Qiongyue heard it was only the end of the Mao hour, which was equivalent to around 6:00 or 7:00 in her previous life. It couldn't be called early, but only very early. She hugged the quilt and fell asleep peacefully.
Yuan Bohua thought he had woken Zhou Qiongyue up, but she fell asleep again, which confused him. He was silent and tangled for a while, but decided to continue calling her, "Yue'er... Yue'er, did you forget that you have to go back home today?"
Zhou Qiongyue was a bit grumpy when she woke up. Yuan Bohua was so noisy that her anger really shot straight to the top of her head. She hugged the quilt and sat up angrily, rubbing her head with both hands until her hair was a mess.
Yuan Bohua was first shocked by Zhou Qiongyue's actions, and then he laughed so hard that he fell over. He thought Yue'er was so cute, even when she was angry.
Seeing Yuan Bohua like this, Zhou Qiongyue's anger at being disturbed in her sleep dissipated. She could only helplessly remind him:
"Your Highness, if I remember correctly, returning home means going back to have lunch! The distance between the Prince's Palace and the Marquis Cheng'en Mansion is only two streets away. Do you want to go back to the Marquis Cheng'en Mansion for breakfast?"
Yuan Bohua could only patiently explain to Zhou Qiongyue. After all, his daughter Yue'er also had to have what others had, and he didn't want others to look down on her.
"Although we're nominally going back for lunch, we can't be back on time! We can chat a little earlier if we go back. And Princess, you still have to clean up, right?"
Yuan Bohua had said so, what could Zhou Qiongyue say? She could only pretend to be angry and pounded the quilt twice, "Your Highness, please go out! Let Gulan come in and serve!"
Although everything that should have happened after she married Yuan Bohua had happened, she still couldn't change clothes in front of Yuan Bohua with ease.
Yuan Bohua glanced at the shy Yue'er and still went out obediently. The main reason was that he really wanted to leave a good impression on his father-in-law and mother-in-law today and didn't want to delay it too late, otherwise he would not have gone out so obediently.
Although Zhou Qiongyue packed up quickly, by the time she and Yuan Bohua went out, it was already the end of the Chenshi hour, which was probably around nine o'clock in her previous life!
Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Bohua both chose dark red coats today, which looked quite festive. Zhou Qiongyue's headdress and jade pendants were all reddish.
They were all valuable and good things, just not as valuable as the one she wore on her wedding day. However, the one she wore today wasn't bad either.
When Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Bohua arrived, all the masters of the Cheng'en Marquis Mansion were waiting at the main gate, including the Cheng'en Marquis and his wife Liu.
Today, Zhou Qiongyue returned home, and the main door was still wide open. After all, after she got married, her status not only did not decline, but became even more precious.
When Yuan Bohua helped Zhou Qiongyue get out of the car, everyone in the Cheng'en Marquis' Mansion saluted.
However, Yuan Bohua immediately said no, and Zhou Qiongyue even stepped aside. Although she was of noble status, they were her elders after all, and she felt embarrassed to accept the whole gift.
After Zhou Qiongyue dodged, she immediately stepped forward to help up the wives of Marquis Cheng'en, Liu and Jin, "Grandmother, mother, there's no need to do this!"
Of course, Yuan Bohua personally stepped forward to help up his grandfather, Marquis Cheng'en, and his father-in-law, Marquis Cheng'en's son Zhou Wencan.
Zhou Zhiyi and Zhou Zhiquan both looked at Zhou Qiongyue the moment she appeared. Seeing that their sister was in good spirits, they both felt relieved, as if their sister had not been wronged.
Even Zhou Zhiyu from the second house and the two illegitimate sons from the first house secretly looked at Zhou Qiongyue, as if they were worried that she was not living a good life.
There are only two girls in their generation, Zhou Nanqian and Zhou Qiongyue. Because Zhou Nanqian has an unpleasant personality and is the illegitimate daughter of the third wife, the children of the first and second wives don't like her.
So they all still like Zhou Qiongyue, the eldest daughter of the family, and at least hope that she lives a good life!
Even Zhou Zhiwen and Zhou Zhiqi, the illegitimate children of the first wife, did not have much dissatisfaction with this younger sister/sister. After all, they were fighting for resources for Zhou Zhiyi and Zhou Zhiquan.
As for most of Zhou Qiongyue’s resources, it would be impossible to give them to them even if they didn’t give them to Zhou Qiongyue.
Afterwards, Zhou Qiongyue went to the backyard to talk with her grandmother, Jin and others, while Yuan Bohua went to the front yard with Cheng Enhou and others.
Among them, Zhou Wencan was the one who least wanted to go to the front yard. He just wanted to follow his wife to the backyard to see his daughter. He didn't want to chat about trivial things with Yuan Bohua and the others in the front yard.
But when he was about to slip away, Marquis Cheng'en caught Zhou Wencan's eye, and Zhou Wencan had no choice but to follow Marquis Cheng'en and the others to the front yard.
Liu didn't want to see her granddaughter in the first place. She felt that what had happened today was enough, so Zhou Qiongyue and the others sat in Youxin Hall for a while, said a few polite words, and then let them go.
This was quite what Zhou Qiongyue and Jin, the mother and daughter, wanted, so Jin was content to take her daughter-in-law and daughter back to her Xieyang Courtyard to talk.
