In the past few days, because it was a new marriage, she had been staying in the old lady's house for a relatively long time. With Qi You also at home, Hua Ru Chu excused several maids from their morning and evening duties. Now that everything is back on track, it's time to establish some rules. As a shy and introverted bride, she couldn't act differently from others.

  "What time did they arrive?"

  "You just left the old lady's place not long ago, and they came. The maid let Dongphi bring people to serve on that side, Dongphi is steady in character, you don't have to worry, nothing will go wrong."

  After taking a sip of tea, Hua Ru stood up and said, "It feels like going into battle."

  Yun Shu smiled and helped her adjust her clothes, saying: "Together, they are not even worthy of being your opponent. It's just that you don't take them seriously and aren't willing to bother with them."

  "What's the use of getting rid of them? Even if they were all sold, Qi You couldn't bring in a few new ones, could he? The problem doesn't lie with the women, as long as they don't cross me, I won't make things difficult for them."

  Yun Shu stopped talking and supported her as they walked to the side hall. In this regard, Miss had a stubborn innocence that even she herself didn't realize. What she wanted was too pure, and there were few people who could give it to her - at least, she hadn't seen any.

  She didn't dare say what kind of person her brother-in-law was, but she knew that as long as these women were around, he would never become the man Miss wanted him to be.

  In the side hall, three women were waiting with some anxiety. Green willow, who had followed Qi You for the longest time, was already a bit temperamental and now she was showing her displeasure.

  Wu and Duan had already finished two cups of tea, of course, it was the tea from this side of Jizhou, Dongfang would not give these women who were going to compete with Miss for husband the good tea leaves.

  "Has everyone forgotten about us here? Didn't they come back from the old lady's place?"

  Dong Fei's eyes observed carefully and replied steadily: "The young lady will be here soon, please wait a moment, three ladies."

  Is this going to be a test for them? The two women, Duan and Wu, exchanged a glance, both thinking the same thing in their hearts. They had entered the door at almost the same time and had always joined forces against Green Willow. Now, they had another opponent added to the mix.

  Green willow said with an unhappy heart, but she wouldn't show her head at this time. She just scolded her own maid, "Can't you see I'm sweating? Don't you know to fan me?"

  "Yes, master."

  Duan Shi wiped the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief and chuckled, "Green Willow sister, can this fan still extinguish the fire in people's hearts?"

  Green willow hummed a smile, "Sister mustn't underestimate this little sister, she really has the skills."

  Wu was just about to go forward to help when she heard footsteps coming from outside and the curtain was lifted by a maid.

  The three of them hastily stood up and bowed their heads, "We've seen Young Mistress."

  "Sorry for keeping you waiting."

  Wu Shi hurriedly took over, "This is exactly what we should be doing."

  Is being a lady-in-waiting just about waiting all the time? Now that you mention it, it seems to be true. Waiting for the master's favor, waiting for orders from the masters of the house, waiting for her own difficulties as the first wife.

  Compared to them, her life has been quite good, and Hua Ru suddenly felt that she had been too sentimental, always comparing with the past. She was naturally wronged, but compared to those who had no status or position like these few in front of her, she was already living a blessed life.

  Three people stood in a row, with the green willow station on one side and the Wu Shi Duan Shi station on the other. Their faces were solemn and respectful, as if the impatience from just now had never appeared.

  Hua Ru didn't know what to do with the rules at first, but in short, these rules were made to restrain women outside of the main room, letting them know that in front of their mistress, they were no different from maids, just servants.

  What's the use of this besides?

  As a shy and introverted new bride, just blushing would be enough for her.

  Yun Gong's face turned red, Hua Ru Chu slightly raised her head, full of embarrassment, "My family doesn't have so many rules, I don't understand how to set rules for you all, why don't we just sit down and chat casually?"

  The three of them were overjoyed in their hearts. The new mistress didn't understand, but they did. If the new mistress had really done those things, their days would have been numbered.

  Ke Sanren was also a man with a city's manner, and when he heard her say this, he didn't dare to agree immediately. He hurriedly bowed his head and said: "In front of the young mistress, we do not dare sit."

  "It doesn't matter, there's no outsider here either, I...I also have something to ask the three young ladies."

  Three people exchanged a glance, and Wu's delicate hands picked up the teacup, using the lid to slide around the rim of the cup, intending to scrape off the tea foam and hand it to the young lady. Her eyes inadvertently swept over the tea water in the cup, but her movements paused, this was different from what they usually drank.

  Suppressing the urge to lift the lid and take a peek, Wu handed over the tea and said: "Madam, if you have anything on your mind, just ask away. What could we possibly hide from you?"

  Lowering her head to take a sip of tea, Hua Ru's eyes sparkled with cold amusement. You'll be the ones answering if there really are ghosts.

  "It's just that, actually, there's nothing much, it's just that my husband and I haven't known each other for long, so I don't know what he likes or dislikes, whether there's anything taboo, if I'm not careful and accidentally make him angry, it wouldn't be good."

  Lü Liu had been serving Qi You since she was a child, and in this regard, no one knew more about it than her. Everything she said and did made Qi You feel most at ease. In the past, Qi You went to her place the most, which was also the reason why Wu Shi and Duan Shi joined forces to deal with her.

  At this time, the second lady asked, Wu Shi would not let go of this opportunity, and hurriedly said: "Madam, Green Willow has been serving the young master since childhood. I and Duan sister have only been in the house for two years. In terms of understanding the young master, we are far less than Green Willow. She must be very willing to tell you."

  Green willow was so angry that she almost gnashed her silver teeth to pieces, if she really said it out, these two cheap people would have learned more than the young lady, humph, thinking of getting information from her? Dream on.

  She bowed her head, and a smile played on her lips, "The things the mistress wants to know, Green Willow wouldn't dare hide. However, the mistress and the two sisters also know that the young master has always been reserved with his emotions. Although Green Willow has served him for many years, she only knows that he dislikes being ostentatious. As for food, he never makes any demands, eating whatever is presented to him. The two sisters must be aware of this as well."

  What's the difference between saying it and not? Hua Ru looked at Wu Shi and Duan Shi with a look that was as gentle as green willows, the two of them gritted their teeth and nodded. Who doesn't know that the eldest son dislikes showiness? Not being picky about food doesn't mean you like everything! How were they supposed to make this naive young mistress understand that Green Willow was fooling her?

  "Green Willow sister is so liked by the young master, she must have something extraordinary about her. The lady asked, but Green Willow sister didn't want to tell the truth?"

  Green willow looked wronged, "The eldest young master is a sentimental person, his sister has been serving him for so many years, just because of this relationship he won't treat his sister poorly, what fault does his sister have, she just used her heart a bit more."

  Is this said for her to hear? Hua Ru Chu didn't interrupt, pretending not to understand the meaning behind it. She let them continue their argument, watching with interest, and would leave when they dispersed.

  PS: Is anyone watching? Just pop up and encourage me, an old devil who has been tortured to madness is rolling on the ground!
