MTL - The Stepmother is Unkind-Chapter 8
Yin Mingyu was awake all the time.
Quietly, she was alone on the bed, and she felt a little uncomfortable when she moved, but she still had to get up.
Jin'er and Yin'er heard the movement outside, so they went outside and asked in a low voice, "Young madam, are the maids coming in?"
Yin Mingyu responded, and when he came out of the bathroom, he saw the two of them setting dishes and smiled, "It really didn't hurt you in vain."
Yin'er smiled and asked for credit: "You didn't eat for almost a whole day yesterday, so the maids touched the pantry early."
"How is the dining room?"
Yin'er said happily: "What do you want to eat, you can just order the pantry in advance. Thank you, the master, there is no need to set meals."
Yin Mingyu smiled. The second benefit of the Xie family was more in line with her heart, even when she ordered the recipe for dinner.
Yin'er responded with a crisp sound.
Yin Mingyu was served by two people and finished washing up. After sitting down and eating two bites of small wontons, he suddenly thought of Xie Qin, "Xie...Where is Lord Lang?"
"It seems to have gone to the front yard." Jin'er replied, "Yesterday, the maid chatted with Xi Lan, and said that Lang Jun has a separate yard in the front yard, and he lives in the front yard when he is busy with official business."
Xi Lan is one of Yin Mingfu's dowry maids. She is not very good-looking, but she is very trusted by the eldest lady. She is the first-class maid by her side.
When they first arrived, Xi Lan would be a good candidate to get acquainted with the Xie family.
They have all been in Yin's house since childhood. No matter whether they are sincere or not, smart people should know that they can't face Yin Mingyu and always reveal what they want to know.
"When did Lang Jun get up?"
Jin'er said: "Lang Jun got up at the Yin Shi, and the maids saw that the maids in this courtyard were ready early. I thought it was Lang Jun who woke up early."
Yin Shi, the sky just dawns...
The first day of marriage is also not slack, really self-discipline.
Yin'er said from the side: "Yesterday, in your bridal chamber, they had to wait outside. It was Jin'er who stopped you, so it didn't bother you."
Yin Mingyu ate attentively and nodded casually.
Back then, the eldest lady was extremely pampered in her boudoir, and there was a maid for everything, and a family like the Xie family would only get worse.
Yi Lai stretched out her hand to eat and opened her mouth, it was really cool, but she didn't like too many outsiders in her private space, especially when she was doing private things at night.
"Just ask one or two things, don't teach people to think that we want to interfere in the yard." Yin Mingyu put down his chopsticks and said lazily, "It's good to have more people who can do it, let's just enjoy the fruits. "
Yin'er agreed more cheerfully.
The servant followed the master, Yin Mingyu chuckled and asked her to call someone in to dress her up.
When the maid was pulling Yin Mingyu's hair bun, Xie Qin came back, and the atmosphere suddenly froze.
His dignity and coldness seem to have been engraved in his bones, and the unrelated people are all cold and indifferent, and it is difficult to look at him more. Jin'er Yin'er can talk and laugh freely in front of Yin Mingyu, and in front of him, he should breathe lightly.
Yin Mingyu looked at him in the bronze mirror, and after a while, got up and said hello: "Lang Jun."
Yesterday, the two of them were still hugging each other's necks. Today, when they put on their shirts, they become estranged again.
But after her identity changed, she was different from others.
Xie Qin glanced at her face, nodded, and reminded: "You need to get the main courtyard in Mao Shizhong."
"it is good."
After Xie Qin finished speaking, he walked outside and waited. He picked up the book he read yesterday and continued to read it with a calm expression.
The maids in the inner room couldn't see him, they were still tense, and their words dropped two tones, for fear of disturbing the male master.
Yin Mingyu was speechless, "No promise."
Yin'er glanced at the inner door, and whispered with a dry smile: "Lang Jun looks unattainable, so the servants naturally dare not offend."
Unattainable?
Yin Mingyu glanced in the direction of the outside world, but she climbed up...
The handmaids became more and more swift, and finished their dressing more than a moment earlier.
Yin Mingyu got up and walked out of the inner door gently.
At the same time, Xie Qin put down the book, and when she was beside her, Fang stepped out together.
Yin Mingyu followed him for half a step, walking unhurriedly, only then did he have time to look at the yard a little.
When my sister-in-law got married, they came to Xie's house once, and it was also in the east courtyard. A few years later, there were new people.
Yin Mingyu looked at Xie Qin, who was in front of him, thoughtfully.
"Is something wrong?"
Yin Mingyu retracted his gaze, lowered his eyes, and replied elegantly, "No."
Then, speechless again.
Xie Qin didn't squint, and flashed before her the sleeping position of last night. For the first time in her life, she was silent because she was speechless.
The big family is very strict in the morning and evening, and this is filial piety.
The head of the Xie family is filial. Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Xie live in the main courtyard with Xie Ce, while he and Mrs. Xie live in the west courtyard.
When Yin Mingyu and Xie Qin traveled to the main courtyard, they had not yet reached Mao Shizhong, but there were already many people in the main room. When they saw the two of them stepping in, they all came over and looked at it.
Yin Mingyu nodded and followed behind Xie Qin with a low eyebrow. Jin'er and Yin'er also cheered up, holding the tray respectfully and walking under the eyes of everyone in the Xie family.
Xie Qin took Yin Mingyu to the front of Mrs. Xie, the head of the family and Mrs. Xie, and said goodbye first.
Yin Mingyu is also a blessing.
The wedding is a happy event after all, Mrs. Xie had a happy expression on her face, and Mrs. Xie asked them to serve tea with a smile.
The maid came over with tea, Yin Mingyu followed Xie Qin to kneel in front of Mrs. Xie, picked up the tea, called "grandmother", and the tea cup was steadily respected in front of Mrs. Xie.
She, the bride, is the protagonist of today, with decent etiquette, and she is indeed impeccable.
Mrs. Xie nodded and took it, said two words of exhortation, and put down the teacup.
After that, Yin Mingyu was the head of the Xie family and Mrs. Xie. The head of the family Xie was serious, and Mrs. Xie was also majestic, but not strict, and drank the tea that Yin Mingyu respected.
On the first day of the wedding, it was necessary to recognize relatives. There were also several respected elders from the Xie family, and Yin Mingyu also served tea one by one, and the tea ceremony was over.
The Xie family has few direct descendants, and the previous generation only thanked the head of the family and a concubine aunt.
The head of the Xie family has two shared rooms, but he has no children, only Xie Qin has one direct son, and Xie Qin has only one Xie Ce.
Yin Mingyu recognized his relatives, and it was Xie Ce who offered tea to Yin Mingyu.
Xie Ce walked more steadily than two months ago. Nanny Tong led him to Yin Mingyu and brought tea to Xie Ce.
The Xie family should have taught Xie Ce in advance. His face was tense, and he held the edge of the cup holder tightly with his small hands. He slowly approached Yin Mingyu and called out, "Mother, dear..."
He didn't say what was behind, but Nanny Tong whispered beside him: "Please drink tea."
Xie Ce: "Dear..."
"It's 'tea, please'."
Xie Ce: "It's my dear..."
"No." Nanny Tong was a little anxious and corrected, "Xiao Lang, it's 'please drink'."
Xie Ce's face began to turn red, and the tea cup began to shake, "Yes..."
The appearance of the doll who can't speak easily is really interesting, but the baby can't be teased with pimples, so Yin Mingyu pursed his lips and looked sideways at Xie Qin.
Xie Qin did not speak, waiting for Xie Ce to speak clearly.
When Yin Mingyu saw this, he ignored it and looked at Xie Ce dumbly.
In my heart, I was thinking: The person who teaches the child has nothing to do. He could only say one word two months ago. Now he can teach him "Mother, drink".
And Mrs. Xie saw that the more nervous Xie Ce was, the less she would say it. She seemed to be about to cry. She felt distressed and scolded, "Don't embarrass him, just teach him the word 'drink'."
When Nanny Tong heard this, she quickly changed her tune and taught Xie Ce to speak again.
One word is indeed much easier, Xie Ce said it smoothly, Yin Mingyu agreed, took a sip, gave another gift, and finished the tea.
During breakfast, Yin Mingyu, the bride, will serve the elders to show filial piety.
She took two chopsticks, and Mrs. Xie let her sit down.
Yin Mingyu was very sincere, and let him sit down.
But after sitting down, Yin Mingyu noticed that the three elders of the Xie family looked at her strangely, as if surprised...
Yin Mingyu's thoughts changed, and he slowly got up again, showing a little anxiety in his expression.
Xie Qin was the only one who looked as usual, and said calmly, "Sit down."
Madam Xie immediately picked up her mood and said, "It's alright, sit down."
Yin Mingyu sat down obediently and ate breakfast with his head down and reserved.
Xie Qin watched her eat another bowl of porridge, his eyes slid down to her abdomen, and then moved away.
She didn't say anything, even the youngest Xie Ce didn't speak. After the meal was finished quietly, Mrs. Xie taught Yin Mingyu to go back to the East Courtyard.
Mrs. Xie told her that in the future, she would only need to save in the morning and evening, and have a meal on the 15th day of the new year or during the festival, and at other times in her own courtyard.
In addition, Mrs. Xie said: "Nanbianer just came to some lychees. If you want to eat it, let the maid go to the pantry to pick it up."
Yin Mingyu's heart moved, the Yin family can also buy the seasonal fruits of Nanbianer, but not many, the juniors can only get a few to taste occasionally, and there are even fewer prostitutes.
The Xie family is indeed the Xie family.
As soon as Yin Mingyu returned to the East Courtyard, he asked Yin'er to retrieve the lychees.
She was lying on the couch, holding a volume of books to read. Jin Er peeled the lychees and delivered them to her mouth. The life was very pleasant.
In the west courtyard, Mrs. Xie heard that Yin Mingyu's maid went to pick up lychees, and said to the companion next to her: "A concubine is not as delicate as a daughter-in-law. I think it's a little bit different for a concubine if the in-laws are kind."
In the main courtyard, Mrs. Xie was also telling Yin Mingyu to the **** child: "Ce Erniang was married on the first day, and she said she didn't need to serve her, but she was with her every day."
Mother Tong flattered: "The first young lady is the most filial."
Mrs. Xie was noncommittal.
