Shen Liao hadn't expected that she would be so rude.
He said, "Everyone, go down. From now on, everything in the backyard will be handled by Madam."
"yes."
He said that he would listen to his wife about all matters in the backyard, and in the afternoon he really handed all the account books and keys of the house to Tu Qingyu.
Tu Qingyu's eyes were full of doubts, "Are you serious, Lord?"
"You are the mistress of this family, so naturally you will be in charge of the household chores."
"Since the Marquis trusts me, Qingyu will not refuse any more."
Her frank and open look made Shen Liao look at her with a higher regard.
"You can order the people in the mansion around as you please. If there are any disobedient ones, you can sell them off."
After that, he took out another box and said, "Inside this are the deeds of the servants in my family."
Tu Qingyu was waiting for this sentence.
After giving the instructions, Shen Liao went out and did not return until late at night.
Tu Qingyu knew that he had gone to Huangjue Temple at night to find the monk who had predicted his fortune.
He spoke very vaguely about the abnormalities that happened to him after he met Tu Qingyu.
The master said profoundly, "Everything is God's will. As long as it does not affect you, the donor should just follow God's will."
Not getting an answer, he sat in the study for a long time after returning.
It was not until three o'clock in the morning that they returned to the new house.
Tu Qingyu was already fast asleep at this time, with her small and delicate face buried in the fur quilt.
Not sure if she was dreaming about something, she rubbed her cheek against the pillow and then turned over.
Shen Liao was standing beside the bed, and in the moonlight, he could see her movements clearly.
They had only been together for one day, but now when he looked at her sleeping face, he felt soft in his heart.
After a long time, he thought, forget it, since we are husband and wife in this life, it is our destiny.
Isn't it just a little bit of my feelings? Why bother with so much?
Besides, these thoughts will not affect him, but will help him understand the other person better.
The next day was the third visit to the parents' home, and the return ceremony was arranged by Shen Liao, following the example of the previous two wives.
When she returned home, the younger generations were standing at the door to greet them, while the Tu couple were standing at the second door to greet them.
This is a treatment I have never received before.
"Greetings, Father and Mother. Best wishes, Father and Mother."
"Meet the father-in-law and mother-in-law, and greet them."
Tu's father just said a few words to Tu Qingyu and sent her to the backyard.
In the backyard, Mrs. Tu Wang held Tu Qingyu's hand with a look of concern in her eyes. "Qingyu, are you doing well in the Marquis' Mansion?"
"Thanks for your concern, mother. Qingyu is doing well."
"Mom, you can tell from her rosy complexion that she's doing well." A young woman nearby interrupted with a smile, "Why do you even need to ask that?"
This is Wang’s eldest daughter, Tu Qingyue, the eldest daughter of the Tu family.
Five years ago, she married the youngest son of a fourth-rank imperial lecturer, and now has two daughters.
Another girl spoke up, "What do you mean by rosy? How can you tell that she's rosy? I just see that she's getting prettier as she gets older."
This is Wang’s youngest daughter, Tu Qingyun, who is one year younger than her but is already engaged.
It was given to the Shujishi who had just passed the imperial examination and entered the Hanlin Academy.
The two girls next to her were the concubines' daughters born to two other concubines, namely Tu Qingye, who was the same age as her, and Tu Qingmiao, who was fourteen years old.
Wang Shixu nodded her head and said, "You are still young. You will understand when you grow up."
"I'm already engaged, am I not considered grown up?"
The married people in the room all covered their mouths and laughed.
Everyone looked relatively relaxed, except for Tu Qingye, who was sitting at the very end. He looked at Tu Qingyu, who was being treated like a star, with envy in his eyes.
They are all concubines' daughters, so why does Tu Qingyu have such a good life?
She is seventeen now, and because her parents don't pay attention to her, she can't even get married.
My fourth sister got engaged at the age of sixteen, and now she is seventeen, but her mother still has no intention of finding someone for her.
Is a good horoscope so important?
But no matter how jealous she was, she had to put on a smile and join in the jokes.
The inner courtyard was peaceful, and the atmosphere in the outer courtyard where Tu Fu and Shen Liao were was also very good.
Mr. Tu definitely wanted to curry favor with the emperor, but since his own son was present, he couldn't lower himself too much to please his son-in-law.
A few of them chatted about the latest imperial examination questions, government affairs, and occasionally Tu Qingyu.
But Shen Liao discovered that his family didn't know as much about his young wife as he did.
It was almost to the point where the other party knew nothing about anything he was asked. Whenever he tried to ask something, the other party would change the subject.
He suddenly remembered that his little wife was calm on the outside but lively on the inside.
Maybe, not really calm.
But no one cared. In this family, as a concubine's daughter, she had to remain calm and cautious.
Such a smart and lively person.
As they chatted, he began to feel a little distressed.
While eating, Tu Qingyu sat next to Chen Liao.
She was eating her food when she was suddenly scolded by Tu's father.
"Qingyu, how can you be a bride? You don't even know how to serve your husband." He stared at Tu Qingyu with the look of a majestic elder.
Shen Liao paused while picking up the food and subconsciously looked at Tu Qingyu.
[Oh my god! You're feeling inferior to the Marquis, so you're trying to establish your authority through me? I haven't seen you in over a decade, and now you have the nerve to scold me?]
【I really spoiled you! 】
Then her hand, which was touching his, left her, and she suddenly stood up.
The movement was big enough to attract the attention of the whole family.
She said exaggeratedly, "It's my daughter's fault. It was my first time having dinner with my parents. I was so happy that I forgot, oh no..."
