The next day, the newlyweds celebrated her relatives, and Chen Danxia saw clearly the appearance of this freshly released fifth brother and sister. Although she went to the new house to join in the fun last night, Sun Zhenniang applied too much white powder on her face, let alone the complexion of her skin, even her facial features were blurred and it was hard to tell.

Sun Zhenniang's facial features are actually quite good, with a melon-shaped face, willow-leaf eyebrows, a cherry mouth, and a white complexion. However, there is a red birthmark the size of a palm on her left forehead to her left face, which seems to suddenly affect her overall beauty, turning a beauty into an ugly woman.

Xu Chao is a man who likes beauty. He is obviously very dissatisfied with Sun Zhenniang's appearance. When he came in, he was dejected and did not look like a groom who had just passed the imperial examination yesterday. He looked like a filial son with his father dead. Sun Zhenniang's face was also gloomy, and she did not have the shyness she should have after marriage.

This shows that the wedding night last night was not happy. Chen Danxia touched his stomach and sighed, "This will be a pair of resentful couples."

Mrs. Xu sat upright in a wheelchair for 100 days. She pretended to be injured and was too injured to move. She could only rest in Changping County. Now she can only act in full play and have to sit in a wheelchair for more than ten days. My Shen Gun also broke her legs, but her injuries were healed. She was wearing a rose-red double-breasted zipper embroidered gourd and sat next to Xu Kui with a smile on her face.

"I think when the third brother and sister came in, it was Chen Shishi to come to worship tea. My sister-in-law and I came to worship tea at Chen Shishi. My wife thought it was too late. She never thought that the fourth brother and sister came even later. Now it is almost the end of Chen Shishi, and it is late. The wife is not sure how anxious she is to wait." Wang said with a smile.

Chen Danxia looked at Wang in surprise and felt a little incredible when she used Sun Zhenniang as a raft to stab Shenmei. She realized that the power in Wang's hand was taken away, which was so angry.

Chen Gong glanced at Wang angrily, and then stared at Chen Danxia. Chen Danxia curled her lips innocently. She had never thought of releasing her anger on Sun Zhenniang. Chen Gong believed that this was the mastermind of Chen Danxia and said in a deep voice: "Brother, brother, brother and sister-in-law are young and ignorant. You sister-in-law should be generous."

"What the wife said," Wang said with a smile. Chen Dan looked out for the sky, how could she be more generous?

"We are late. Please don't be surprised by grandmother, father-in-law, mother-in-law, brothers and sisters-in-law." Sun Zhenniang bowed her knees and apologized.

"Okay, give me some tea." Xu Kui frowned. These women are just trouble.

The maid put a cushion on the ground, and another maid brought tea on a tray.

Xu Chao and Sun Zhenniang knelt on the cushion, slightly took the tea brought by the maid, raised it high above her head, and said to Mrs. Xu, "Grandma, please have tea."

Mrs. Xu took the teacup one by one, took a sip, gave the red envelope, and said with a smile: "Brother Chao, you are married, you are an adult, behave more steadily. Zhenniang just entered the door and didn't understand many things. You should be more considerate of her, don't blame her, respect and love her. If you dare to be wronged by those things that cannot be put on the table and I will not forgive you."

Sun Zhenniang had a sore nose and a warm heart. She knew that her appearance was flawed and she was destined to not be favored by her husband or her husband's family. But she didn't expect that the grandmother would say such words to protect her.

"The grandson knows." Xu Chao lowered his head.

Next, it’s time to serve Xu Kui and Shen Meimei. Xu Chao and Sun Zhenniang were just taken to the two of them by the maid and were about to kneel down. Mrs. Xu said coldly: “Slow down.”

Everyone in the hall looked at Mrs. Xu, and the girl with a slightly frowned. What did this old woman want to do?

"Brother Chao, take Zhenniang to the ancestral hall to burn incense to your Peng's legitimate mother and tell her that you have married." Mrs. Xu said lightly.

"Mother!" Chen Meng was extremely sad and angry. Xu Lang was Peng's parent-child. He took Chen Danxia to burn incense for Peng's family. She couldn't argue, but Xu Chao was her parent-child, she was a wife, not a concubine, and she was also a legitimate son. Why should she burn incense for Peng's family? "Cheng Ge is my parent-child."

Xu Kui coughed lightly and said, "Mother, let Brother Chao give me and Shen first, and then go give me tea to Peng's house. What do you think?"

Xu Kui wanted to ease a little, but Mrs. Xu was unwilling, "You are still the Minister of Rites, and you have followed the original one. Are there any rules?" Mrs. Xu glanced at Mrs. Chen coldly, "Since you are the second wife, you should keep your duty as a second wife."

What is the duty of the second wife?

Although the second wife is a wife, she still has to hold concubines in front of her original wife. The children born must also recognize the original wife as their mother. This is the duty of being a second wife. Chen Dan curled the corners of her lips. This is the old lady who was dissatisfied with Chen Meigu's heavy hand and deliberately swept her face in front of her parents and daughter-in-law. This is to tell her that the Xu family is not her Shen Meigu. It seems that what Wang said before was also instructed by the old lady.

Xu Kui looked at his cold-faced mother and his wife who could not hide his anger, and his head ached. This dynasty governed the world with filial piety, and his mother was widowed to help him. If he dared not listen to his mother's words today, with his strong and strong character, he would immediately take people to the Censorate to sue him for being unfilial; military officers value meritoriousness, civil officials value reputation, and if they have a reputation of unfiliality, the emperor would be afraid that he would immediately dismiss him and would never be hired.

Xu Kui made a choice in a few breaths, "going to the ancestral hall." He could only aggrieved his parents.

Shen Mei was instantly decadent, completely different from before. Sun Zhenniang kept her head down, but she knew in her heart that her mother-in-law should not be liked by her mother-in-law. The purpose of the words she said just now is worth pondering; the water in the Xu family's inner house was as deep as her mother and sister-in-law said, and she had to be careful.

"Jiu'er, stay with your grandmother." Mrs. Xu was so angry that she was afraid that Chen Meng would be so angry that she would hurt Chen Danxia. Chen Danxia smiled and sat back on her original position.

Xu Kui and others went to the ancestral hall. Madam Yu had a cold face and asked Madam Chen to burn incense on the tablet of Peng. Madam Chen wished he could catch the incense and throw it into Madam Yu's face. Thinking of this, Madam Chen did not dare to do it. He beat the slave and insulted the master. The old woman would go crazy and would personally take her to the ancestral temple outside the city. Madam Chen took a deep breath and she would tolerate the old woman again.

Chen Meng brought incense to Mrs. Xu Chao and Sun Zhenniang also brought incense to Mrs. Peng. Then everyone returned to the hall and continued to worship the tea. Sun Zhenniang knelt on the cushion, took the tea brought by the maid, raised it high above her head, and said, "My mother-in-law, please have tea."

Chen Mei took the teacup, took a sip, and handed her the box containing the meeting gift. She smiled kindly and said, "Be good, live a good life with Chao Ge'er in the future and take good care of Chao Ge'er."

"I'm sure to listen to my mother-in-law's instructions." Sun Zhenniang took the box and handed it over to her personal maid, and then gave it an unboxing gift.

The gift Sun Zhenniang gave to Xu Kui and Shen Meng was a set of outer clothes and two pairs of shoes for each person.

After celebrating her parents-in-law tea, she then recognized her relatives. The concubine's brother Xu Bang, the concubine's sister-in-law Qin, the concubine's brother Xu Shuo, the concubine's sister-in-law Wang, the elder brother Xu Lang, the elder sister-in-law Shen, the fifth brother Xu Sheng, the last one was the concubine's sister Xu Xu.

After the marriage recognition, Mrs. Xu said she was tired. Xu Kui said, "Mother, please have a good rest." She left first, and then Chen Gui and others also got up and left.

After leaving the courtyard, Xu Chao approached Chen Gong's side and said, "Mother, my son will take you back to the courtyard."

Chen Pei looked at him and said, "I have become sensible in this marriage and know how to respect my mother."

Xu Chao giggled.

Sun Zhenniang was tactfully not following her, and walked slowly at the end, looking at the three pairs of brothers and sisters-in-law in front, Xu Feng and Qin were five steps away; Xu Shuo and Wang were also one step away, but only one step away; Xu Lang and Shen were standing side by side... No, they were walking hand in hand. A hint of envy flashed in Sun Zhenniang's eyes, and she raised her hand to touch the birthmark on her face. If she had the stunning appearance of Shen, could she get the love and respect of her husband?

Sun Zhenniang returned to the Lioshiyuan surrounded by maids and mothers. Chen Meimei took advantage of the excuse of natural disasters to merge three adjacent small courtyards into a large courtyard and Lingxiyuan, which were divided into the main courtyard and the east-west courtyard. When Mrs. Xu returned to Jindu from Changping, the wood was already in the boat. But Mrs. Xu was a man who was? She endured for two months and found all of them when she was celebrating her relatives.

The name of the Lixue Courtyard is from the pomegranate, which has a very good metaphor. Chen Meimei wished that Sun Zhenniang would get pregnant on the night of the bridal chamber and quickly gave birth to a legitimate son. But Xu Chao didn't want to sleep with Sun Zhenniang, so he sent Chen Meimei into Yilan Courtyard and complained: "Mom, why did you find such an ugly wife for me? Brothers, my wife is the ugliest, so I don't have the shame to take her out for socializing."

"Chao'er, marry a wife and virtuous person, don't care too much about her appearance. Sun is the daughter of the Master Lin'an, and your father-in-law is also a third-rank official, which is helpful to your career. Think about it, why did the rebellious son try his best to marry Shen into the house? He is not just for the help of my third brother, but who would have thought that a natural disaster would happen that my third brother would go there. Shen is a jealous person, but now her family can no longer help. Let's wait for the couple to turn against each other and look at the joke. At that time, the rebellious son's back house is in chaos, and your father will definitely let you take over his connections. This is the greatest benefit to your career. The Xu family's ancestral property should be inherited by you, a person with a future, and the rebellious son becomes an abandoned son." Shen Gu's eyes showed fierce light.

"Then you should choose a better one, like Sun's. I was shocked last night and almost... I almost couldn't get a bridal chamber." Xu Chao said dissatisfied.

Chen Meimei choked up. Today, she saw Sun's appearance clearly. She felt wronged Xu Chao and comforted him, "Good son, be obedient. When Sun gives birth to a legitimate son, I will serve you a few beautiful maids."

"Mom keeps her word, don't coax me." Xu Chao said poutingly.

Chen Peimei patted his hand, "Treat Sun and spend more time with her, okay, go back."

Xu Chao obediently withdrew from Yilan Courtyard, but did not return to Liushi Courtyard, but went to his study room in front. The pretty girl who served him, hadn't gotten into the touch yet, and was disgusted by the ugly woman. She must sleep with that girl today to relieve her bad luck.

Sun Zhenniang, who returned to the Li Shiyuan, asked the maid to call her wet nurse, Pingshi, into the room. Pingshi entered the room and bowed to Sun Zhenniang, "Young grandma, look for an old slave, but what's wrong?"

Sun Zhenniang briefly said the story of Jingcha’s recognition of her biological child and said, “Woman, go and inquire about the affairs of this mansion so that I will not be taboo when I first entered the door. Inquire more about the old lady, the temperament of my three sisters-in-law, and how is the relationship between my wife and them?”

"Don't worry, young grandma, I'll help you find out clearly." Ping's salute.

In the afternoon, it started snowing. Xu Lang and Shen Danxia did not go out and were playing chess in the warm room. Shiqin hurried in with an invitation, greeted the two of them, and presented the big red gold-painted double-happy invitation. Xu Lang opened it and smiled and said, "Tao Shen is going to get married."

"Which day?" Chen Danxia asked.

"The twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month should be a good day." Xu Lang smiled. This day was settled before the earth moved. Chen Muke died. Renyi Bo Mansion had thought of rescheduling the date, but Tao did not agree and persuaded Tao's mother and Jin.

The next day, Xu Chao followed the etiquette and accompanied Sun Zhenniang back to the door. Lin'an Wengzhu loved Sun Zhenniang very much because of her poor appearance. Her daughter finally got married. But she had been hung up for two days. She welcomed her daughter into the door, beat her son-in-law away, held her hand, and asked anxiously: "Have you been in the Xu family these two days? Are the people in the Xu family good to you?"

"Fortunately, I can handle it." Sun Zhenniang reported good news but not bad news. She only said that Mrs. Xu was treated well by her dear parents and did not ask her to set rules. The three sisters-in-law were not the kind of sarcastic and mean people.

"That's good, that's good." The Master Lin'an breathed a sigh of relief, and she was worried that her daughter would not live well in her husband's house because of her lack of appearance.

Xu Chao and Sun Zhenniang used Guining Banquet, and after a while, they returned to the Xu family.

The next day, Sun Zhenniang was invited to the courtyard by Mrs. Xu. An hour later, she was half-squinting her eyes and leaning against the soft pillow. Listening to Chen Danxia, ​​who was studying at Xu Lang, learned a news from playing the piano, "The old lady asked the wife to hand over the feed to the fourth grandma's pipe."

"Madam agree?" Chen Danxia asked. The last time Chen Peifu handed over the gift was because he made a big mistake and was reluctant to do it. This time, would Chen Peifu let go so easily?

"Agree." Play the piano.

Chen Danxia was stunned, and then he realized, "The fourth grandma is her parent-child daughter-in-law, and she is planning to join forces with her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law."

"Then Sun is not a fool. She won't follow her mercy. She made the wrong plan." Xu Lang said coldly.

Chen Danxia deeply agreed with it.

The weather is cold one day after another. On the 11th day of the twelfth lunar month, Huang took the time to visit Chen Danxia. "It snowed another night yesterday, and the ground was frozen. Grandmother and mother asked me to tell you that the family will not speak two families, and there is no need to talk about those vain children. Just let your brother-in-law go there tomorrow, so you don't go there to avoid being frozen. You are both now, so you can't get sick from the cold."

"This matter, my cousin's wife beat me up and told me, why should I come here in person in the wind and snow?" Chen Danxia was also worried. The road was slippery and afraid something would happen. But Renyi's mansion was her grandfather's family. Tao Shen got married. It would be great if she didn't show up. She didn't expect her grandmother and aunt would be so considerate.
