Chapter 223 I Have a Half Brother
Chapter 223 I Have a Half Brother
The future mistress of the Marquis's Mansion cannot be a good-for-nothing fool. Of course, he also knew that if this girl was really good-for-nothing, his son and grandson would never choose her.
After returning home, she didn't have time to pack up the gifts. After a short rest, she rushed to the small kitchen in her yard and worked until the evening. Just because Xiao Ran said that his parents and he liked it, she had to make a few more jars.
It was dinner time when she returned to her room: "Sir, are we going to have dinner with our parents?"
"No, we'll eat in our own yard. We'll just go over and greet them later."
Xiaomi nodded. She had heard about the custom of visiting one’s parents every morning and evening.
"Xiaomi, tomorrow you will organize the gifts you received today and store them in the warehouse. From now on, all household expenses will be paid from my private property. Your dowry will be considered your private property."
"it is good."
Lin Xiaomi raised her eyebrows. Shouldn't the correct way to open it be for Xiao Ran to hand over his private property to her for management? Was he trying to save some private property?
The two of them had eight dishes and one soup for dinner, which tasted just as good as the lunch. It seemed that the chef in the small kitchen was carefully selected.
She was very satisfied with the meal. Seeing that she had a good appetite and ate deliciously, Xiao Ran unconsciously ate half a bowl more rice than usual.
After dinner, the two walked to Xiao Zhen's residence.
Sun heard someone report in the afternoon that Lin Xiaomi had been busy in the kitchen all afternoon, making several jars of pickles. Having seen too many people say one thing and mean another, she now saw a daughter-in-law who kept her word, and she felt that her son had a good eye for people.
She is not a mean person. As long as her daughter-in-law is filial and polite, she will not bully or make things difficult for her.
When Lin Xiaomi went over, Xiao Ran's two-year-old brother Xiao Yi was playing in Xiao Zhen's arms. Xiao Zhen's eyes were full of doting.
My father-in-law is also a kind father.
"Dad, Mom!" They both bowed together.
"I'm here. Have you had dinner yet?"
"used!"
Sun looked at her daughter-in-law and said, "Are you used to everything in the mansion? If there is anything that does not suit your needs, please tell the people below."
"Everything is fine. Thank you for your concern, mother-in-law."
Sun looked easy to get along with and gentle, but she didn't dare to take it lightly. If a mistress of a family didn't have some skills, she really couldn't control so many people.
She took a closer look at the little boy in Xiao Zhen's arms. He was round and cute, with eyes like black grapes. He didn't look like her father-in-law or her mother-in-law. He looked a bit like her twin brother. What's the connection? Maybe all the little kids have the same face.
On the way back: "Dad and mom have a really good relationship, just like my dad and mom, a couple for life, it couldn't be more beautiful, right, my Lord?"
Xiao Ran stopped and looked at her, with a troubled look on his face: "Xiaomi, I don't think I told you about the situation at home, right?"
"Huh?" She already knew everyone in their family today, so what else was going on?
"In the capital, my father's three concubines and two half brothers are also there."
"Bang!" She heard the sound of her dream shattered. So, the men in wealthy families are actually animals with lower bodies? She thinks her in-laws have a good relationship!
"Why didn't they follow us?" Aren't the old man's concubines all by his side?
"It was because of me that my father didn't let them come. They are ambitious and not content with the status quo. My father left them at a farm in the capital."
What a bloody drama, her mother-in-law is really kind, she is so kind to her father-in-law, with a face full of admiration. Maybe, her father-in-law is willing to come forward to punish her severely, is that enough for her?
"So, you don't have to care about those people. If you see them in the future, don't pay any attention to them."
"understood."
Back in the courtyard, she called all the maids and servants into the room. Except for seeing Daya and Sanya at the door in the morning, she had not seen anyone else.
"Where are you now?"
Look at everyone, all dressed in a new look, with new clothes, new shoes, and new jewelry.
"Madam, we are learning the rules from the nanny." Daya lowered her head slightly, placed her left hand on her right palm, and answered softly.
The girls behind nodded at the same time.
"what about you?"
Her dowry included six maids and ten servants.
"Madam, the government is also arranging for us to learn the rules."
Oh, they are all learning!
"Are you used to it these past two days?"
"The Marquis's Mansion is very good."
Xiaomi looked at them and they seemed to be in good spirits.
"Go down, and come back to work when you have learned well."
"Yes."
Lower your head, step back, turn around, and go out. All produced on an assembly line.
"If you're not used to being without them, it's okay if you don't learn the rules." Xiao Ran saw her staring at their backs and thought she was reluctant to leave.
Yes, leaving her hometown and marrying him, she doesn't know anyone, so it's understandable that she feels lonely. He was not thoughtful before, thinking that since she entered the mansion, she must abide by the rules of the mansion.
"No, my Lord, I am not unaccustomed to it. I am just thinking, they have to learn the rules, what about me?"
How come my wife is so sensible? !
"Your etiquette is already very good. From what I've seen today, you are also good at following the rules. You don't need to learn more."
Lin Xiaomi's mouth twitched slightly. She was just talking nonsense. No one would learn any rules.
"You don't know much about the people in our courtyard. Let me tell you about it." Then he changed the subject: "Xi Que, call everyone in."
"Yes."
