Gillian's eyes were indeed swollen from crying.

She woke up early, and the hair-combed woman invited by the Zhu family had not arrived yet. Gillian learned makeup skills in Huayue Tower, so she asked Cui Niang to go to the kitchen to cook an egg.

Cui Niang thought that the little lady who was about to pass the door was hungry, so how could one egg be enough? After Cui Niang entered the kitchen, she took two eggs from the small basket where the eggs were placed, washed and put them in the pot.

"What are you doing?"

A bad voice suddenly came from the kitchen door. Cui Niang turned her head and saw that it was Jin. Cui Niang stared back and said like a bean spray: "Miss I'm hungry, I want to cook eggs for her. Why? Are you an aunt still reluctant to eat two eggs for your niece?"

Jin's temper is that he is afraid of hardness, especially today, it is not suitable to have a quarrel over two eggs, so Jin endured it. Thinking of his purpose, Jin smiled at Cui Niang, took out an egg from the basket and handed it to Cui Niang: "You are hungry too, cook one more, eat it yourself."

Cui Niang looked at her suspiciously and did not answer: "What do you want to do when the weasel greets the chicken with New Year's greetings?"

Jin really wanted to slap the dead girl of the Zhao family back to the Zhao family, but she still kept smiling, held a small stool and sat next to Cui Niang, and asked in casually: "Last night, Ajiao talked to her uncle for a while. What did Ajiao tell you after she went back?"

Cui Niang hummed while burning the fire: "I didn't say anything. I hid in the quilt and cried for a long time. It must be your family who suffered the grievances."

Seeing the scene of her husband holding her head and crying bitterly, Jin continued to ask: "Does Gillian hold anything in her hand?"

With Jin's understanding of her husband, it was impossible for him to not give him any dowry. Jin was already worried enough if he couldn't get the Zhao family's betrothal gift. If her husband hid the private money and handed it to Jiao, Jin would have to grab it back.

Cui Niang finally understood what Jin Shi meant. She stared at Jin Shi and suddenly mocked: "Take it, the little lady brought two golden walnuts, which were full of golden beans, and it was hanging on her eyes. Go grab it!"

Jin was shocked at first that her husband actually hid two golden walnuts. It was not until after hearing Cui Niang's words that Jin reacted. He stood up in anger, grabbed Cui Niang's shoulder and wanted to hit someone.

"Enough, endless, aren't it?" Zhu Chang appeared outside at some point and shouted coldly.

When Cui Niang saw him, she was anxious to complain: "Scholar Master, please take care of you..."

It was actually because Jin Shi covered her mouth.

Zhu Chang almost heard it. He knew who Jin was. Zhu Chang frowned and shouted Jin out.

Before leaving, Jin gestured with his hands to threaten Cui Niang with no words.

Cui Niang was too lazy to pay attention to her, so she cooked two eggs, put them in a bowl filled with cold water, held them in both hands and took them to the east wing, and opened the curtain, and saw that Jiao had already changed into the red wedding dress. The bride was wearing red when she got married, and the concubines could only choose other reds. Looking at Jiao in front of her, Cui Niang felt that she was so beautiful, but also a little regretful for her.

If I hadn't met Jin's unscrupulous aunt, Gillian's sister would be a real wife for the official, and it would be great if she was a talented man and a beautiful woman.

"The little lady is dressed up, so beautiful!" Cui Niang praised sincerely.

Gillian was not in a hurry to get married, but secretly hid the bag that her uncle gave her in her arms while Cui Niang was leaving, and she was not at ease with her.

Gillian peeled two eggs in the bowl and put them aside to wait for the cold, while the other was called Cui Niang and ate it.

Cui Niang asked her strangely: "Don't you eat it?"

Gillian explained softly: "Let the boiled eggs cool down, peel the shell and turn them around the corners of your eyes for a few times, and your eyes will be able to reduce the swelling."

Cui Niang looked surprised.

Later, when Ah Jiao turned the egg, Cui Niang looked around intently and found that Ah Jiao's method really worked. Cui Niang looked at Ah Jiao like a god, and felt that the little lady could do anything.

A man came from the door of the Zhu family and the combing woman arrived.

Even if you are a concubine, you must dress up beautifully when you get married.

Jin took his daughter Zhu Shuangshuang to see Jiao comb her hair, but the mother and the mother kept staring at the Zhao family's betrothal gift, and even wanted to go over and look through the silk in the box and pull open the drawer of the dressing table. Although Cui Niang looked closely, she was only one person, and she could stop this and that, causing Jin's mother and daughter to thoroughly check the betrothal gift, although they did not steal things.

Gillian sat quietly with her eyes down, as if she was used to it.

The hair-combed woman looked at the beauty like a flower in front of her. Yu Guangzhong couldn't help but feel sorry for Ah Jiao when she saw the virtues of the Jin mother and daughter.

Of course, Jin and Zhu Shuangshuang didn't find anything extra.

Zhu Chang suddenly called the mother and mother out outside, and the guests who came to see the marriage arrived one after another.

Even though Jin suspected that there might be something hidden in Gillian, she had no face to search her body.

The Zhu family was lively for a while, and after a while, the guests from the Zhao family were also here. As soon as the auspicious time arrived, Zhao Yanping came to the Zhu family to pick up the bride with the matchmaker.

The two families were too close, and the sedan chairman arrived after carrying the sedan chair.

Zhu Chang personally carried his niece out of the east wing. The scholar-in-law, who was nearly forty years, had bloodshot eyes and tears rolled in his eyes. The guests were talking. Amid the discussion, even though Jin was so thick that he could not bear it, he entered the room awkwardly, with no shame in seeing people.

Gillian didn't cry, she cried enough last night.

My uncle is kind to her, but she suffers from her life at her uncle's house. She is like a redundant person and is not comfortable in anything. The Zhao family has a simple population and Mrs. Zhao takes her as a concubine. She should not hate her too much. Mrs. Zhao is a good captain and has saved her life. Jiao secretly likes that she can marry such a hero.

So, today is a good day for her to move to Zhao's family, and Gillian was only happy, and even she was not reluctant to leave her uncle and Gillian.

"Jiaojiao, our two families are so close, so why would you feel wronged in the future? Just come to find your uncle."

He put Gillian in a sedan chair covered with a pink gauze, and Zhu Chang whispered through the red veil of Qian.

Gillian nodded.

Zhu Chang looked at his niece's little hand on his knee, bent down and poked out the sedan chair, walked to Zhao Yanping who was standing next to the horse, and said with red eyes: "Zhao Guanye, Zhu is only this niece. He has been pitiful since he was a child. He also asked Zhao Guanye to treat her more kindly and protect her. If Jiaojiao has a place to serve her poorly, Zhu will apologize for her first."

Zhao Yanping said: "Don't worry, since I accept her, I will take care of her."

There are so many, Zhao Yanping did not make any promises.

When Ah Jiao goes to be a concubine, Zhao Yanping doesn't have to call him uncle, and the two families are not considered serious in-laws.

Seeing that Zhao Yanping didn't think of respecting him much, Zhu Chang walked away silently.

Zhao Yanping turned over and led the sedan chair to circle one more street, and then turned back from another direction.

A wall is separated by, and from then on, Gillian is a member of the Zhao family and has nothing to do with the Zhu family.

The concubine's gift is simple, and the Zhao family is not a big family that is heavily cumbersome. Zhao Yanping picked up Ah Gillian's veil. He had seen men and women, and he had never married or accepted them. Zhao Yanping went to the yard to entertain the guests at the ten tables.

Old Mrs. Zhao, Liu, and Chen Ying have not shown up yet. She is waiting to drink the tea from her new concubine tomorrow morning, so she only sent Cui Niang to stay in the east room to take care of Gillian.

Gillian sat on the bed, and the congratulations and urged him to drink in the yard were clearly heard. Everyone was calling Zhao Yanping to drink. I don’t know how much he drank, whether he would get drunk, and whether he would be crazy after being drunk.

Cui Niang brought the food in and placed it on the table next to the window.

Now Ah Jiao heard it more clearly. It turned out that the people who came today were all merchants, and there seemed to be a county magistrate.

She could only listen to the sound. Old Mrs. Zhao sat at the table of the merchants, but kept stretching her neck to look at the magistrate Xie Ying. Seeing that Xie Ying looked only in her twenties, younger than her grandson, with her jade face and starry eyes, red lips and white teeth, she was handsome and elegant. Others were so excited that she could not help her. She could not tell whether she was feeling sad or sad. Old Mrs. Zhao lost her appetite.

A big man looks even whiter than a woman, and is really born to be a witch.

Unfortunately, he is the magistrate and the son of a marquis in the capital. Old Mrs. Zhao dared not speak out, otherwise she would have rushed up to tear his mouth and told him not to hook up with her good grandson.

The wine was getting darker, the food was enough to be eaten, and the guests stood up and left.

Zhao Yanping was the only male in the family. He saw off guests one by one in front of him. It was not until the last guest left that the Zhao family closed the door.

Zhao Yanping also wanted to help clean the yard, but Old Mrs. Zhao grabbed his arm and pushed the person into the house: "Leave this to Guo Xing and Cui Niang, go and wash your face quickly and go into the house."

What is she trying to take a concubine for fifteen taels of silver? It's just to make it dark at night. My concubine can use her skills to charm her grandson!

Mrs. Liu also came to advise her son: "Miss, be gentle to her, don't look at her like a cold look in front of us, scaring her to fear you."

Zhao Yanping looked at the two elders, picked up the washbasin and went to the kitchen to scoop water, then walked to the backyard to wash his face.

Old Mrs. Zhao told Cui Niang and sister to clean up quickly, and to go to bed after packing up, and no one was allowed to speak out again.

Then she took Liu and Chen Ying to the west room and asked the mother and mother to lie down and go to bed early.

Chen Ying saw that she was still sitting on the chair and lay in the quilt and asked, "Old lady, why are you not sleeping yet?"

Old Mrs. Zhao lied: "I just ate too much, I will go to the yard for a walk later, otherwise my stomach will be uncomfortable."

Chen Ying believed it and lay down well.

Liu looked at her mother-in-law, smiled, and lay down.

Old Mrs. Zhao turned off the oil lamp and the room was pitch black.

Not long after, Old Mrs. Zhao heard that her grandson came in from the backyard and went to the east room.

The time was already here. Old Mrs. Zhao tiptoed out of the west room, quietly opened the backyard door, took it with her back, and then the cat went to the back of the east room, with her old face pressing against the wall, like a big gecko, motionless and focused.

The beds at home are placed on the north side, and there are small windows on the north wall. If there is any movement in the house, you can still hear them if you listen carefully.
