It is said that a night of spring is worth a thousand gold. Sheng Mingfu finally understood the meaning.
After the commotion last night, Sheng Mingfu was slapped in the face this morning when he moved.
He paused there, watching her fall asleep again with her head against the pillow in anger, and found it both funny and cute.
He was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes, but he still held a grudge and insisted on beating him.
With a click of his tongue, Sheng Mingfu stole a kiss on her face, got out of bed, dressed, and went to work.

On the first day of marriage, the bride should get up early, go to her mother-in-law's house to offer tea and pay respects to the elders.
But Yu Huan couldn't get up.
The old lady of the Sheng family was a kind-hearted person. She knew that the bride was not willing and was taken away by her bastard grandson. She already felt guilty towards Yu Huan and would not blame him.
Sheng Mingfu's stepmother was weak in nature and didn't dare to interfere in Sheng Mingfu's affairs, so naturally she didn't dare to say anything bad about Yu Huan.
Yu Huan slept until noon before he opened his eyes drowsily.
The bride who welcomed Yu Huan into the house yesterday, perhaps following Sheng Mingfu's instructions, stayed to serve Yu Huan.
"Madam, you just got married. You should wear red clothes for a few more days. It has good meaning." Aunt Zhao said this and showed Yu Huan the row of clothes.
So she put on a maroon double-breasted jacket, a pleated skirt embroidered with a lion and ball pattern, and embroidered shoes with gold and silver thread.
"It fits perfectly?"
Yu Huan was a little confused as to how these people knew her shoe size.
"Madam, you have to ask the governor." Aunt Zhao said with a warm smile.
Sheng Mingfu knew so much, and no one knew how long he had been secretly watching her.
Yu Huan curled his lips.
Then he asked, "Where is my mother? I want to see her."
Aunt Zhao immediately said, "Please rest assured, Madam. Madam Lin has people waiting on her. They are all smart and clever maids who will definitely take good care of her."
But he didn't tell her where he lived, nor did he ask her to go and see him.
Yu Huan asked a few more questions, and Aunt Zhao said in embarrassment: "It was arranged by the Governor-General."
Yu Huan angrily ate a bowl of egg custard.
I ate another greasy salted duck egg.
I ate another piece of sweet red date millet cake.
I ate another soup dumpling with rich broth and translucent skin...
In short, it filled my stomach.
?
Sheng Mingfu took a break from his busy schedule and listened to his subordinates reporting on his wife's morning meals and clothing. His stiff and cold brows relaxed a bit.
Fortunately, I knew not to starve myself.
After finishing his business, Sheng Mingfu went back home to have lunch, just to take a few more glances at the wife he had been thinking about day and night and had finally married.
By then, Yu Huan had already walked around the room more than ten times.
Go out? Sheng Mingfu wouldn't let her, as a bunch of people were looking at her. Eat? She had just eaten, so she wasn't hungry yet. Sleep? She had overslept to begin with, and she had just woken up, so she wasn't sleepy.
Turning around, his eyes suddenly fell on the clothes rack, on which hung Sheng Mingfu's military uniform, the same one he wore yesterday.
It makes me angry just looking at it.
Yu Huan stopped in front of the clothes rack, rolled up his sleeves, treated the clothes as a person, pointed at the military uniform in a menacing manner, and began to lecture.
"What are you so great about? What's so great about you?"
"He's just a warlord, so what? He's not a god. He's just a scoundrel, a bastard, shameless..."
The more he cursed, the more excited he became, and he let out a lot of the anger in his heart.
A sudden laugh came from behind.
Yu Huan was startled and looked at Sheng Mingfu, who had stood at the door without him noticing, as if he had seen a ghost.
Sheng Mingfu was still wearing his military uniform, tall in stature. As he walked over, his black boots made hard collision sounds, each of which shook the chest.
He walked over and even touched her chest, with a slight curve at the corner of his lips: "Are you feeling better?"
Yu Huan hurriedly brushed his hand away and said calmly, "Don't touch me, you're so annoying."
"How am I bothering you, madam?" Sheng Mingfu asked humbly.
"I want to see my mother." Yu Huan asked.
Sheng Mingfu lowered his head and thought for a moment, "How about waiting for two days? In two days, I will have someone bring your mother to the courtyard to live with you."
Yu Huan took two steps, then retreated and stood in front of Sheng Mingfu. With a stern face, he asked angrily, "Why two days?"
Sheng Mingfu didn't hide it, he leaned forward slightly, and his sharp and handsome face appeared in front of Yu Huan. He said in a calm voice:
"Of course I'm worried that you'll have nothing to worry about and try to run away."
If they were caught by then, they would be in tears and how heartbreaking it would be. It would be better to be prepared from the beginning and avoid that.
He is indeed right.
Yu Huan was still thinking that after meeting A Niang and making sure she was okay, she would discuss how to leave the Sheng family. After all, she didn't want to die as miserably as in the original plot.
But she didn't expect that Sheng Mingfu was openly guarding against her.
The maids shouted outside the door, saying that lunch was ready and inviting them to come and eat.
Yu Huan glanced at Sheng Mingfu and suddenly threatened him: "If you don't let me see my mother, I won't eat."
She walked towards the dining table, intending to sit there, staring at Sheng Mingfu. Sheng Mingfu didn't know that she had just eaten breakfast, but he couldn't bear to see her hungry.
As soon as she said this, Sheng Mingfu thought of the long list of food she had eaten that the servants had reported to her before she came.
His belly must be very round by now, and he is probably on a hunger strike because he can't eat.
He followed and saw the military uniform on the hanger. Thinking of what he saw when he entered the room, he wanted to laugh even more.
