My husband is pure and has few desires, but I gave birth to three children in a row

Chapter 147 Liu Sisi Enters the Mansion

After Zhao hit a snag with Hu, even though she was unwilling, she had no choice but to give up.

He ordered people to clean up the small courtyard next door.

She also found some things suitable for girls from her own private dowry and put them on display, making the arrangement quite elegant and refined.

Then he ordered someone to go to the storehouse to get a light yellow folded branch flower tent and a few brocade quilts and satin mattresses to lay out the place, and it would be quite presentable.

Mrs. Zhao still felt that it was not enough, so she asked her servants to pick the freshest, dewy flowers of various colors from the garden every day, put them in a vase, and bring them to this house to fumigate the room.

Feeling that everything was ready, he sent people and a carriage back to pick up Liu Sisi.

The carriage entered directly from the corner gate and did not stop until it reached the second gate.

Zhao's trusted maid and a sedan chair were already waiting nearby.

Zhao's trusted maid stepped forward, personally helped Liu Sisi get off the carriage, and then helped her into the sedan chair and sat her down, then she clapped her hands.

A few servants who had no one to show their heads came up from the corner, carried the sedan chair steadily and walked towards the second gate.

After winding around for half a day, the sedan finally stopped and waited for the servants to leave.

Zhao's trusted maid came forward again, handed her hand to Liu Sisi, and asked her to hold her hand and get out of the sedan chair.

A large group of maids and old women followed behind her. Liu Sisi did not dare to look up, but followed Zhao's trusted old woman. After passing through several doors and around a screen wall, she saw Zhao standing on the steps, looking at her with a smile.

Liu Sisi took two steps forward, and Zhao also took two steps forward. The two sisters held hands and smiled at each other.

Only then did Zhao take Liu Sisi's hand and walk into the inner room.

He was still asking with concern, "Can you handle the journey?" and "Are you tired?"

Liu Sisi smiled, holding Zhao's hand affectionately, with a little girl's shyness: "The carriage of the Marquis' Mansion is naturally stable. Thinking that I will see my cousin soon, I don't feel tired at all!"

These words made Zhao very happy.

I was served tea and snacks and rested for a while.

Zhao asked the old woman, "Are the old lady and the madam free now?"

The maid came back after half a day out and said that the old lady was free now, and the three ladies and three grandmothers were all chatting in the old lady's Ruixuan Hall.

It is just right for Zhao to take Liu Sisi with her now.

When Liu Sisi heard this, a look of fear and timidity suddenly appeared on her face. She nervously grabbed Zhao's sleeve and said, "Cousin, I, I'm a little scared——"

Zhao patted the back of her hand soothingly. "Don't worry, our old lady is very kind and loves girls the most. Just bow to her and greet her."

"Besides, I'll take care of everything!"

After much persuasion and coaxing, Liu Sisi finally stood up.

He was also worried that there was something wrong with his body, so he asked Zhao to help take a look. After finding nothing wrong, the two of them went to Ruixuan Hall.

Along the way, Zhao introduced everything to Liu Sisi.

Zhao's courtyard was behind Hu's courtyard, separated by a corridor, forming two cross-courtyards.

To get to Ruixuan Hall, one must pass through Hu's courtyard.

Zhao pointed it out carefully and showed it to Liu Sisi.

This is Ruixuan Hall.

Zhao had already given the notice yesterday, and she also used the mansion's carriage to pick him up this morning.

Hu naturally knew that her cousin from the outer third sect would be brought to the house today.

According to the rules, after meeting Zhao, one has to pay respects to the old lady and the eldest lady.

Anyway, they were more relaxed today than usual, and they all wanted to see what kind of magic potion this cousin from the Liu family had given Zhao.

So everyone found an excuse and came to Ruixuan Hall.

Several daughters-in-law came to Ruixuan Hall, and the eldest wife and her husband also came over to chat and watch the fun.

Anyway, in broad daylight, apart from the things happening in the mansion, there is nothing new to do, which is really boring.

It was rare for a young girl from a relative's family to visit the mansion nowadays, although I had seen her last time in the stands of Prince Shu's mansion and had given her a gift.

But the fact that she had to live at home permanently, and the fact that the three sisters-in-law, including Hu, were so displeased with Liu Sisi that they made no secret of it, didn't deter Zhao from bringing her in. The wives in charge all wanted to see what was going on.

Look at what kind of monster this girl from the Liu family is, she has bewitched Zhao so much.

Old Lady Bai knew everything clearly, and knew that the daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law were all here to watch the fun.

It was not at all what he said about wanting to come and accompany this old woman to show his filial piety.

The old lady saw through it but didn't say anything. She happily had snacks and tea brought to her.

Just as we were talking, the weather was getting hotter and hotter, and we wondered if we should go to a farm outside the city to escape the heat.

They were talking excitedly when they heard the maid come to report that Third Madam Zhao had come with the girl from the Liu family.

Everyone stopped talking and looked towards the door.

The little maid at the door lifted the curtain, and Zhao walked in first, followed closely by Liu Sisi.

Probably because she was visiting the Marquis' Mansion today, Liu Sisi was wearing something a little different from that day.

She wore a light yellow top, a lilac bodice with lace trim, a willow green pleated silk skirt, and a few small hairpins inlaid with gold cordyceps flowers on her head. She looked a bit playful, and apart from a somewhat timid look, there was nothing wrong with her.

Zhao entered Ruixuan Hall and saw a room full of people, all looking at her and her cousin.

He immediately smiled and said, "Grandfather, this is my cousin. You saw her last time at the dragon boat race! I brought her to the mansion today to pay my respects to you and the ladies."

As they were talking, the maids had already placed the offerings in front of Old Lady Bai.

Liu Sisi took light steps, the hem of her skirt rustling and the jade pendant on her waist swaying slightly. She walked steadily to the old lady, knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "Sisi greets the old ancestor! I pay my respects to the old ancestor!"

Old Madam Bai hurriedly had someone help him up and had him stand in front of her. She put on her reading glasses and looked at him carefully for a long time before she smiled and said, "What a well-groomed child!"

Zhao laughed and said, "Old lady, you have good taste! My cousin, like my aunt, has been a beauty since she was little!"

After paying homage to the old lady Bai, the next step was to pay homage to the first lady Jin Jin, the second lady Qin and the third lady Lan.

The three ladies were not embarrassed and quickly asked someone to help the child up. They all praised the child for being a very pretty child.

Only the eldest wife, Jin, gave a few more instructions: "They are all family relatives. Since the third family has invited the cousin to come to play, just stay here with peace of mind! Treat it like your own home! If there is anything missing, or if the maids and servants are not serving you well, just ask your eldest sister-in-law for help. Don't ask outsiders!"

Liu Sisi bowed and replied softly, "Yes," without daring to say anything more.

Zhao brought Liu Sisi over to pay her respects to Hu, Lu Zhenzhen and the others.
