Chapter 1194 The Meal Replacement Lady is Not Likeable (9)
After they washed up, it was time to go to bed. Yuan Shichu threw himself on his bed and rolled around in his comfortable and soft bedding. Just as he was about to ask the maid to turn off the lights, he suddenly heard a steady and powerful sound of footsteps coming towards his bedroom.
She quickly turned over and saw that it was Zhan Shulin!
"Do you have anything else to tell me?" Yuan Shichu asked unhappily. Why did he still want to find him at this time? Couldn't he talk about it tomorrow?
Zhan Shulin paused, but did not stop his steps. He walked directly to the bed and sat down. Then he said to Yuan Shichu confidently: "This dormitory is not only yours, but also mine. I remember that we are married."
After he said that, he moved Yuan Shichu's body into the bed without saying anything, and then he lay down peacefully.
Yuan Shichu stared at his smooth movements in amazement, and finally remembered that as her husband, he was indeed the rightful male owner of this dormitory.
But Yuan Shichu was used to sleeping alone these days, so she said bluntly: "Why don't you continue to sleep in the study? You have to share a bed with me, what are you planning?"
Zhan Shulin laughed when he heard her words and said, "What can I do? The bed in the study is hard and narrow. I can't sleep comfortably. Can't I just come back to sleep here? As my wife, you haven't cared about whether I sleep well in the study for more than half a month. Now that I'm sleeping in the main room, you have objections? Tell me, do you act like a qualified wife?"
"I don't look like a qualified wife, and you don't look like a qualified husband either. Isn't it good for everyone to keep to themselves? Don't talk to me about the love between husband and wife. Do we have such a thing?" Yuan Shichu said coldly.
Zhan Shulin choked and had nothing to say. Finally, he said viciously: "I won't argue with you. I just want to sleep here. If you are not used to it, then find another place by yourself!"
After saying that, he closed his eyes and no longer paid any attention to Yuan Shichu.
Yuan Shichu was so angry that he punched the pillow hard. Why should she find another place to sleep? This mattress was the most comfortable material she had replaced. She spent so much time and effort to make a good bed. Why should she give it to this stinky man? !
So she lay there angrily, not planning to leave her bed.
After waiting for a while, there was no movement from either of them, as if they had fallen asleep one after another. The room was quiet. Zhan Shulin lay there quietly, and suddenly he smelled a light and pleasant scent.
The atmosphere is very strange, but it gives people a feeling of remoteness and tranquility, which makes people involuntarily calm down and feel refreshed.
Zhan Shulin thought that this was probably the fragrance used by Yuan Shichu. He would ask her what it was tomorrow. He also wanted to...
The couple who shared the same bed but had different dreams actually slept very well. Even though Yuan Shichu kicked Zhan Shulin in the middle of the night, Zhan Shulin just scratched the place where he was kicked, snorted lightly, and continued to sleep, as if he didn't even notice that he was kicked.
The next day, when Zhan Shulin was woken up by the maid, he felt refreshed. He hadn't slept so well for a long time. He was full of energy as soon as he got up, as if he had endless energy. This made him pleasantly surprised. What was the reason?
He thought about it and thought that it was probably because the bed was very soft and comfortable, and the fragrance before falling asleep was peaceful and pleasant?
Zhan Shulin immediately felt that his decision to go back to the main room to sleep was absolutely correct. If he had stayed in the study, he would have suffered from backache and lack of energy...
After Zhan Shulin left, Yuan Shichu had not woken up yet. Old Madam Zhan did not like the younger generation to pay their respects to her every day as they disliked disturbing her sleep, so Yuan Shichu and Chen only needed to pay their respects on the first and fifteenth of every month.
After Yuan Shichu knew this rule, his impression of Old Madam Zhan improved a lot. It was rare to have such a reasonable old lady who would not make trouble for her daughter-in-law. This was also the reason why Yuan Shichu did not insist on divorcing Zhan Shulin.
On the contrary, if Old Madam Zhan was cunning and vicious, and took pride in tormenting her daughter-in-law, then Yuan Shichu would definitely pack up her bedding and run away with her dowry on the day she returned home.
This shows the importance of a good mother to the marriage of the next generation...
The days passed uneventfully. Yuan Shiwan returned home, but Yuan Shichu still did not go. In order to maintain the face of both families, Zhan Shulin had to continue to spend time and effort to cover up for Yuan Shichu and went to Yuan's house alone again. This time, even if Yuan's father disliked his eldest daughter, he knew that Yuan Shichu did it on purpose.
He felt that Yuan Shichu was narrow-minded and could not bear to see his sister doing well, which was why he refused to attend his sister's wedding and return party. He was furious and scolded Yuan Shichu. Of course, he was very proud, so he did all this in private and did not dare to let his two sons-in-law hear it.
Of course, because he disliked Yuan Shichu, he also didn't like Zhan Shulin very much. He couldn't help but vent his anger on Zhan Shulin because of Yuan Shichu, so when facing Zhan Shulin, he had a cold face. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that he was not very satisfied with this eldest son-in-law.
"The eldest young lady is so pitiful. Not only is she disliked by the master, but even her brother-in-law is disliked by the master..." A maid dressed in green whispered to her companion.
"Why? I think the eldest brother-in-law is more handsome than the third prince. Why doesn't the master like him?" The companion was a simple-minded person and asked the green-clothed maid in confusion.
"Alas, what's the use of a man being good-looking? How can good looks be as useful as power and status? The Third Prince is the emperor's son, and it is a great blessing for the Second Miss to become the Third Prince's consort. The master naturally prefers a daughter and son-in-law who can bring him glory!" The green-clothed maid said in a low voice.
"That's true, but didn't the eldest brother-in-law pass the imperial examination and become an official in the Hanlin Academy? He must have a bright future, right? The eldest lady will also be able to enjoy the glory and honor of her husband." The companion scratched her head. She thought that the eldest brother-in-law was handsome and talented. Although the third prince was noble, he didn't seem to be outstanding in other aspects except being the emperor's son, right?
"It will take several decades for the eldest lady to marry a rich and powerful woman. I don't know how long she will have to wait. You are nothing like the third prince, who is now a member of a royal family. How can they be compared? Oh, you are so stupid..." The green-clothed maid chattered, thinking that her companion was stubborn.
"The master has called people to serve. Let's stop talking and get to work..." The silly girl who was his companion hurriedly said to the maid in green, and then rushed out to serve.
After the two maids left, Wang came out from the shade of the tree nearby and sneered at the nanny beside her: "Look, even the little maids in our house know that the eldest and second daughters are worlds apart after they get married. Who made them marry husbands of such different status? Tsk tsk, I think the eldest daughter is unwilling to come back to see her younger sister and brother-in-law because she feels ashamed of marrying a worse wife than her younger sister?"
Wang speculated with glee about Yuan Shichu's jealousy and resentment towards his sister, and felt refreshed. Finally, this annoying stepdaughter was suppressed.
