After that, the girl was too lazy to pay attention to Yinzhu anymore. She just waited.

In the evening, when the sky was getting dark, Yuluan ordered "prepare dinner". Then she heard a surprised voice coming from outside the door, which was a woman's deliberately feminine voice.

"The prince is back!"

Yu Luan was helped down from the ground and came to the door, where she saw the young man walking towards her with big strides, and the maidservant behind him was trotting after him, with an attentive smile on her face.

"My Lord, is your job today tiring? You are sweating profusely. I will wipe it off for you..."

Before her fingertips holding the scarf could touch the young man, he turned his head slightly to avoid them. He stopped in front of the door of the flower hall, frowned, and glanced at the maid who came out of nowhere in front of him in confusion.

"Where are you from? What are you doing following me?"

The young man's voice was completely cold and puzzled, as if he didn't recognize her at all.

Yinzhu's face froze slightly, and she inevitably showed some embarrassment as she said, "I am Madam Lin's youngest daughter. I came to the mansion and met you when I was a child. We even played in the mud together in the garden. Don't you remember me, sir?"

Yin Xu frowned and thought about it, feeling more and more confused.

"I see."

He answered evasively and ignored her. The young man walked towards the door, raised his lips slightly towards Yu Luan, unbuttoned his coat, and asked in a low and concerned voice.

"Mother and my two sisters-in-law didn't make things difficult for you today, did they?"

Yu Luan also stretched out her fingertips to undress him. At this time, Yin Zhu, unwilling to be ignored, squeezed forward again and said to her: "Madam, I'm afraid you are not used to doing such a service... It's better for me to do it."

Yu Luan stepped back half a step without making a sound. When Yin Xu saw that it was her who came closer to him again and smelled the strong scent of powder on her body, he felt more and more strange.

"No need." He separated the other person's hand, turned around and continued to talk to the girl, "How is it? Today..."

Before he could finish his words, Yinzhu seemed to be afraid that Yuluan would complain to him, so she interrupted again and said, "My dear, you have worked hard all day, you should have dinner early!"

She was so eager to show off in front of the young man one after another that it was hard for Yin Xu not to see what she was thinking.

He couldn't help but frowning. Although he never cared much about the maids and servants in the courtyard, he was sure that there seemed to have never been such a person who was eager to stand out in the past.

Yin Xu looked at the girl, and the latter shook her head at him helplessly.

"Is this a reward from my mother?" Yin Xu said, and called two maids over, saying in a very cold tone, "Come, drive her out!"

The maids didn't dare to move, after all, she was the maid that the wife of Duke Xuan had personally awarded to him as a concubine.

Yinzhu couldn't help but stiffen slightly. She wanted to say something, but the young man had already turned his head and sat down at the table.

She didn't dare to move closer to him for a moment, so she turned around and quietly went out the door to avoid him.

In this way, the couple can have some time alone together on the second day of their wedding.

Yu Luan reached out and picked up a pair of ivory chopsticks, picked up some fish meat and put it in his bowl, curved her lips and whispered softly: "My dear, try this fish meat... I specially asked them to boil it with purple basil, it has a unique fragrance."

Just as she was about to withdraw her hand, she felt a force coming from her wrist, not too light or too heavy. She raised her eyes and saw the young man looking at her worriedly.

"Did mother and my two sisters-in-law make you angry?"

She didn't need to say anything. Yin Xu knew something just by looking at the maid's swaggering manner, who was even more arrogant than her, the legal wife.

The girl smiled gently, her eyes clear and bright.

"If I say yes, they will embarrass me...what will Xu Lang do?"

Yin Xu hesitated for a moment before he slowly said, "I'll have someone catch a few poisonous snakes from the mountains outside the city and put them in the bedrooms of the two Yangs."

"What about the mother-in-law?"

The young man couldn't help but pause and let out an almost inaudible sigh.

"She is my mother... I can only let you claim illness and see her two or three times a year at most."

This is a good way to resolve conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. If they don't meet, there will be fewer conflicts and disagreements.

It's hard for him to have such a heart.

"I will go to the main courtyard to find my mother later and send that unruly maid back... I can't use you to set the rules for everyone to see, can I?" the young man whispered.

The girl couldn't help but blink slightly, her heart softened, but she shook her head: "What if I say... I don't need your help to solve it?"

The young man raised his eyebrows slightly: "You want to do it yourself?"

She smiled and explained the twists and turns to him: "You are the biological son of the mother-in-law. If you send her back, it will be embarrassing for her. She will naturally not blame you. She will only think that I instigated and instigated it... and forced you to send her back."

In this way, his image in his wife's eyes will only become worse, and he will be pretending to obey her but actually disobeying her.

Yin Xu immediately understood, glanced at her approvingly, and nodded slightly: "Madam is really smart and clever, I will listen to you."

The girl's cheeks couldn't help but turn a faint blush, she picked up a piece of beef and stuffed it into his mouth, saying shyly: "A table full of food can't stop your mouth!"

On the day of returning home, the girl got up early in the morning to wash and dress. She heard the door creaking and couldn't help but look over.

Qiu Xiu came in with a washbasin and a handkerchief in her fingertips. She came to her side, wrung out the handkerchief, wiped the girl's face, and spoke in a low voice.

"...The silver bead is still following you around like a dog-skin plaster. Many people in the mansion have seen it, and some are talking about it in private."

In the past two days, Yinzhu has been circling around Yin Xu, always eager to be conspicuous, which always looks a bit unpleasant in the eyes of others.

The girl pretended not to see anything and let her go. After all, she was a maid given by her mother-in-law, and it would not be embarrassing for her if she behaved unruly.

"Let her go." The girl held the ink in her fingers and drew her eyebrows carefully. "When we come back... Madam will probably want to talk to me."

This matter can be left to ferment for two or three days. It will only be dealt with when everyone is fed up with it.

Today is the day for her to return home, and in order to show her status, the girl dressed up very carefully.

If she dresses casually and does not match her status, it will also bring disgrace to the Xuanguo Mansion.

She wore a light pink blouse with a lilac satin jacket with a butterfly pattern on the outside. Under the hem of her clothes was a lilac twelve-panel Xiang skirt, which made her look even more beautiful, with a slender waist that could be held in one hand.

Her black hair was tied into a bun, with a long gold and jade hairpin inserted into her hair. Her earlobes were adorned with round pearl pendants, and she wore a little makeup. Her outfit did not look overly luxurious, but instead exuded a hint of gentleness, highlighting her soft and carefree appearance.

Soon, Yin Xu also dressed up to match the girl. He wore a lavender satin gown, which made him look noble and elegant.

The two of them went out together. When the girl reached out to lift the curtain, she happened to catch a glimpse of Yinzhu looking at them from behind the door. In front of her stood her mother, Mother Lin, frowning and whispering something, presumably telling her not to be so ostentatious.

A trace of impatience flashed across the maid's face, and the atmosphere between the mother and daughter became slightly tense.

The girl gently lowered the curtain and curled the corners of her lips silently.
