After the marriage, the cousin was spoiled by the whole family of the Marquis's Mansion

Chapter 14 Misunderstanding
Opposite the grain shop is Ruyifang.

It used to be Xie Shuning's favorite place to go, but unfortunately she didn't have much monthly salary, so she often had to save up several months' salary to buy a hairpin she liked.

Rong Peilan was suddenly startled when two extremely familiar figures appeared at the door of Ruyifang.

Qingtan, who had been following her, suddenly saw her eyelids twitch. Wasn’t that the prince and Liuyan?

Rong Peilan's heart skipped a beat, she lowered her eyelids, then turned and walked into the grain shop.

Qingtan glanced at Rong Peilan's back, then glanced at Liuyan's back following the prince, pursed her lips, turned around and followed the young lady's footsteps.

The grain shops in Xicheng are different from ordinary grain shops. Their products are mostly fine and expensive.

It is also the most profitable shop of all, and the shop owner and clerks in the shop have many interactions with the managers of the royal families.

Although it was just a grain shop, the human relationships there were enough for Rong Peilan to learn.

When Mrs. Zhong brought Rong Peilan out of the shop, the sun had gradually set.

"Lan'er, do you want to go to Ruyifang to have a look?" Zhong looked at the young ladies coming in and out of Ruyifang across the street, and turned to Rong Peilan and said.

Qingtan subconsciously looked at Rong Peilan.

Rong Peilan glanced at Ruyifang and shook her head, "No, my mother asked Ruyifang to make a lot of clothes and jewelry last time, and my daughter-in-law still has a lot that she hasn't used yet."

Mrs. Zhong nodded. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had only been together for a month or so. She just thought she was embarrassed and would let Zhang'er accompany her next time.

Rong Peilan helped Zhong get on the carriage. She was about to get on by lifting her skirt when her eyes happened to bump into Liuyan who had just come out of Ruyifang.

Liuyan changed her clothes and at this moment there was no trace of a maid at all.

If you don’t know, you might think she is a daughter of an official family.

Qingtan noticed that Rong Peilan's fingers, which were holding up her dress, were trembling slightly, so she slightly turned sideways to block her view.

He said softly, "Young Madam, Madam is still waiting."

Rong Peilan tightened her fingers that were pinching her dress, then hummed softly and stepped onto the carriage with the help of Qingtan.

Mrs. Zhong usually came alone to check the accounts, but perhaps because she had her daughter-in-law with her today, she was in a very good mood.

"Lan'er, don't underestimate this small shop. The knowledge inside is no less than what your father taught you."

Rong Peilan didn't dare to look at Mrs. Zhong, and only replied in a low voice, "Yes, my daughter-in-law will learn well from my mother."

Mrs. Zhong looked at her daughter-in-law who lowered her head and looked obedient, and sighed. Her son was a reckless person, and her daughter-in-law was too obedient.

Fortunately, this carefree son has been causing minor troubles but never major ones. I hope he will focus on his studies after getting married.

The carriage swayed and the sun gradually disappeared.

The meals in the Marquis' Mansion were separate. Mrs. Zhong did not force her son to come to visit her every morning and evening, so naturally she would not ask her daughter-in-law to report every day.

There is a small kitchen in Yuhui Garden, and the cooks are all Ji Yunzhang’s since he was a child.

Ji Yunzhang was a playful person and often did not eat at home, so the cook in the small kitchen had become accustomed to it.

So when Qingtan came to report that only the young lady was having dinner, the cook responded and began to prepare the meal.

Willow branches on the moon.

After taking a bath, Rong Peilan, with her long hair loose, sat on the couch and looked at the account book she had brought today.

Qingtan took off the hairpin on her head and adjusted the wicks of several lanterns in the room, making the room brighter.

She pinned the hairpin back into her bun, thought for a moment and said, "Madam, the light is a little dim, please watch your eyes, and you'd better rest early."

Rong Peilan put down the account book in his hand and said, "There are still a few pages left. I won't read them after I finish them."

After a pause, he continued, "You should also go and have a rest. You don't have to be on duty tonight."

"Yes." Qingtan bowed.

Only after Qingtan left did Rong Peilan let out a breath.

Reading was once her best way to relieve her depression.

The account book might not be as attractive as the book itself, and Rong Peilan felt upset reading it.

It had only been a month since they got married, but she seemed to be addicted to it. Ji Yunzhang was the son of Xinling Marquis, and it was normal for him to marry a wife and a concubine, not to mention that Liuyan was the maid who had been with him the longest.

Rong Peilan lay back and covered her face with the account book.

The unique smell of ink on the account book gradually calmed her down.

Gradually, she realized that courtship is the most painful thing.

She is now the wife of the Crown Prince of Xinling Marquisate, and it is wisest for her to seek fame.

Now she just needs to learn to be a good mistress of the marquis's mansion.

Ji Yunzhang was drunk when he came back. As soon as he entered the room, he saw the young lady he had been thinking about sleeping on the couch with an account book covering her face.

Holding the account book gently, I found two small wet spots in the middle of the book.

"Tsk, you're still drooling."

Ji Yunzhang placed the person on the bed and was about to lean over to steal a kiss when the door was pushed open with a creaky sound.

"Sir, I have made some hangover soup for you to drink while it's hot."

Liuyan held the white porcelain bowl and gently placed it on the table.

Guessing that the soup was too hot, she pinched her earlobe and rubbed it gently, then blew on it with her mouth.

Ji Yunzhang stood up and lowered his voice, "You are not needed here."

Liuyan glanced at Rong Peilan on the couch quietly, and then said softly, "Sir, tomorrow will be the same."

Ji Yunzhang hummed, then waved his hand impatiently.

"I'll take my leave." Liu Yan bowed and walked out.

Ji Yunzhang stretched out his arm and smelled it. It seemed that the smell of alcohol was a bit strong. His wife was a bit stingy. If she woke up in the middle of the night and smelled the alcohol, she would probably kick him out of bed.

He took off his gown and walked towards the bathroom in the separate room.

There was a rustling sound on the couch, and the person who was originally lying flat on the couch moved to his side, hugging a thin blanket.

-

Three poles in the sun.

Ji Yunzhang woke up only when the sun had already entered the house.

The consequence of a hangover was dizziness. He pinched his forehead and subconsciously called out, "Perrin."

A slender figure walked in and handed him a handkerchief.

"Sir, the young mistress went out early in the morning."

Ji Yunzhang wiped his face and regained consciousness. "He went out?"

Then he looked at Liuyan again, frowning slightly, "Why didn't you follow?"

Liuyan was the head maid arranged to serve the young lady before his marriage when Yuhui Garden was restructured.

"I don't know." Liuyan pursed her lips, and then said, "The young lady only brought Qingtan with her. Today, Madam Zhou said that Qingtan should be promoted to the first rank and enter the inner room to serve the young lady."

Ji Yunzhang nodded without thinking about anything else. "I thought the Xie family would have a maid, so I only arranged for you. Now it's good to have one more person."

"Where did the young lady go?"

Liuyan was about to speak when Ji Yunzhang suddenly stood up and said, "Forget it, I'll go to the concierge and ask."

As he said this, he grabbed his coat from the clothes rack, put it on and walked out.

"Hey, Prince, you haven't had breakfast yet."

Liuyan said hurriedly, wanting to speak out to stop the person.

However, Ji Yunzhang's steps were fast and heavy, and by the time she ran to the door, he had already disappeared.
