"It's okay. Come with me tonight. I've already said hello to them."
"Is this okay?" Ali felt a little embarrassed. She slept until the afternoon on the first day of her marriage, which made her a lazy daughter-in-law in everyone's eyes.
Ah Li wanted to cover her face, but Gu Qichuan raised his hand and pinched her little face.
"My parents have been through this before, so they know everything."
After hearing these words, Ah Li's face turned even redder. She didn't want to talk to Gu Qichuan anymore, not for the time being.
"We have to sleep in separate rooms tonight." Ali said angrily.
Gu Qichuan quickly reached out and hugged her, "It's impossible to have separate rooms, it's impossible to have separate rooms forever."
Gu Qichuan kissed her as he spoke, and Ah Li quickly put her hands on Gu Qichuan's chest, "No, I have to serve tea to my parents-in-law later."
Gu Qichuan chuckled. He couldn’t tell his little girl what she was thinking in broad daylight...right?
Although he thought.
Gu Qichuan's eyes became hotter.
But they did offer tea, and her parents also gave Ali a red envelope and gifts.
I heard from his mother that she wanted to hand over the management of the household directly to Ali.
Ali chatted with Gu Qichuan for a while, and then fell asleep in his arms again.
It's time for dinner.
Only then did Gu Qichuan wake up Ah Li.
After the two of them had dinner, Ah Li dressed up and changed her clothes before pushing Gu Qichuan towards the main courtyard.
Ali was very nervous along the way. When she met Zhao Hanying, she was unusually shabby and wore coarse clothes, but she could feel that Zhao Hanying was a very straightforward woman, different from Cui Yuewei.
Ali pushed Gu Qichuan into the room. Zhao Hanying and Gu Re were already seated at the main seats.
Seeing the young couple come in, Zhao Hanying put on a smile, "Ali, you worked hard last night."
With these words, both Gu Qichuan and A Li's cheeks flushed. Gu Che quickly raised his hand and patted his wife, meaning, "Take it easy. She's the new wife after all. Don't scare her away."
Zhao Hanying immediately restrained her expression and looked at the young couple with a doting look. She waved to Ah Li and said, "Ah Li, come here."
"Yes, mother." Ali responded softly, walked a few steps to Zhao Hanying, and bowed to her respectfully.
"Dad, Mom."
"good."
Aunt Yucui had already brought the tea over and placed the futon in front of Ali.
Ah Li knew that in ancient times people had to kneel down to offer tea, so she knelt down quickly and offered the tea with both hands, "Dad, mom, have some tea."
The two newly promoted parents-in-law took the tea from the new daughter-in-law and were all moved. Zhao Hanying's eyes even turned red.
"Great! I finally got to drink this cup of daughter-in-law tea in my lifetime."
Gu Li almost spit out the tea he had just drunk. His wife really spoke her mind.
Gu Qichuan was also convinced. He wondered if his mother could give him some face.
After finishing the tea, Zhao Hanying stood up and helped Ah Li up. "Ah Li, there are no rules in our family. You can sleep as late as you want. There is no such thing as waking up at dawn and dusk. You have to make up for the rest of your sleep at night."
Ali: Can we not talk about the trouble we had at night?
Zhao Hanying raised her hand, and her maid immediately brought out all the gifts that Zhao Hanying had prepared for A Li. There were eight trays in total, all filled with expensive jewelry and head ornaments.
Ah Li's eyes lit up. She really liked these sparkly clothes. "Thank you, Mom. I like them very much."
Gu Che looked at his daughter-in-law, whose expression was clearly written on her face. He liked her very much. He immediately took out a stack of banknotes.
Ali: Isn’t this a bit too direct?
"Ali, I will follow your mother in calling you this. We are a straightforward family. If you need something, just say that the servants have been with us for many years. There is no need to beat around the bush. If someone says or does something that makes you uncomfortable, just tell your mother that you can change them. You can buy whatever you like from these."
"Thank you, Dad." Ali's eyes were gentle. This was a normal father.
"Ah Li, you are now the new daughter-in-law of our General's Mansion. From now on, the feedback from the General's Mansion will be under your control."
Ah Li was stunned, "Mom, I don't want to..."
Just as Ali was about to refuse, Zhao Hanying grabbed her hand and handed her a bunch of keys.
"There are some account books left. When you two are tired for a few more days, I'll have someone send them to you." Zhao Hanying said, and her meaning was clear: she didn't want to manage the accounts, she didn't want to be the manager of the household, and she wanted to leave all matters to her new daughter-in-law.
Ah Li: Is it that simple for her to be the boss?
She turned her head to look at Gu Qichuan, who nodded to her and said that sooner or later this family would need their support, so it was time to take it back.
In ancient times, after they had taken revenge, they would always have to do something, such as running some shops or doing some business. He knew that his Ah Li liked this.
Only then did Ali accept the key and respectfully assured the two elderly people that she would work hard to be a good mistress of the house.
After talking for a while, Zhao Hanying and Gu Re were both experienced people. When they saw that their son was anxious to return to his own small courtyard, they immediately stopped trying to keep him and let him go back by himself.
Ali bowed respectfully to the two of them again, turned around and went back to their yard with Gu Qichuan.
As soon as he entered the room, Gu Qichuan pulled Ali to wash up, and then continued to rock the big bed.
Gu Qichuan didn't want to think about anything these days. He just wanted to be close to his wife.
In a blink of an eye, it was the day to return home in three days.
Zhao Hanying prepared the return gift for Ali early on.
It was a rare occasion that Ali had a good sleep the night before, so when they returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, they all had to be fully alert.
The Prime Minister's Mansion was a den of dragons and tigers to them.
Ali and Gu Qichuan were invited in respectfully.
Both of them also did their best to save face and bowed to Prime Minister Shen and Cui Yuewei who were sitting in the main seats.
Prime Minister Shen greeted the two with a smile. He wanted to live in peace with Ah Li. As long as his daughter did not attack him, he would compensate her as much as possible within his ability.
On the surface, they seemed to be having a pleasant conversation.
"Son-in-law, let's go to the study and chat." Prime Minister Shen stood up.
Gu Qichuan nodded, and Songbai pushed him and Prime Minister Shen out.
Ali stayed in the front hall.
As soon as Gu Qichuan and Prime Minister Shen left, Shen Anrong came over.
"Little sister, it looks like you've been having a good time in the few days since your wedding."
Ah Li smiled and said, "Of course life will be good if you marry the person you love."
She was sunny and bright, with eyes and eyebrows full of the coquettishness of a newly married young woman, which was quite eye-catching.
"Sister, I wish you and your husband a happy marriage, and hope that you will have a son soon," said Shen Anrong.
No one came to see her for three days. Shen Anrong thought that Du Wanrou's affair must not have been exposed, so she was safe. Now she was shaking again.
