Chapter 341 He Wants to Take Her Away
On the second day after the wedding, the bride has to go to the elders to offer tea and set rules.
Qin Xiaoning got up early for the first time ever. When the groom opened his eyes, the little woman had already dressed up carefully.
She was wearing a red evening gown and her hair was combed into a bun with a large purple and gold hairpin inserted in the bun. She looked graceful and luxurious.
Lu Ji was happy, he lay on the bed and looked at his little wife, "Now that you are my wife, you are really different."
Qin Xiaoning was dressing herself in front of a diamond-shaped mirror. When she heard the voice, she turned around, glared at the man, and murmured, "This woman, only after becoming a wife can she be considered truly mature."
She carefully pinned a pearl flower to her hair: "From now on, I will be your wife, so I must pay attention to my appearance."
The pearl flower was hollow, and because Qin Xiaoning was distracted by talking to Lu Ji, the pearl flower got tangled in her hair. The little woman was busy adjusting her hair in front of the mirror. Her pretty face couldn't help but frown as her hands were busy.
"Be careful not to pull your hair." While she was in a panic, Lu Ji quickly got up and walked behind her. He raised his hand to carefully pull out the tangled hair, and then threw the pearl flower on the dressing table: "This thing will shave your hair. Don't wear it in the future. I think the silk flower you used to wear is good enough."
"How can that be possible? All the ladies from high-class families have to wear this kind of pearl flowers, and I am no exception."
As she spoke, the little woman picked up the pearl flower again and carefully pinned it on her hair in front of the mirror. Lu Ji couldn't persuade her, so he had to take the pearl flower from her hand and said, "I'll help you put it on."
The man pinned the pearl flower on her head, but the little woman, still uneasy, fixed it herself until it was perfect.
Lu Ji could see that the little woman was nervous.
After all, her mother was still angry about this marriage, and as a little girl, she was naturally timid and uneasy.
Lu Ji said, "Eat first. After breakfast, I will accompany you to the front yard to serve tea."
"No need." The little woman stood up from the dressing table and followed Lu Ji to the outer room, mumbling: "Just go to court, I can handle these things at home."
The little woman looked weak, but when she said this, she showed a strong tenacity.
Lu Ji pulled her little hand over, the slightly cool touch made him feel distressed. He held her with his warm big hand and said in a gentle voice, "A Ning, don't be afraid. I won't let anyone bully you, not even my parents."
Qin Xiaoning was happy and raised her hand to smooth his frown: "Lu Ji, I am just a little orphan. I am lucky enough to marry into such a noble family and meet someone like you who truly loves me. I must be the luckiest person in the world."
Before she could finish, Lu Ji leaned over and kissed her lips gently, half jokingly saying, "How dare I not love you? If I don't do what you want, you will make my whole family restless."
"Didn't we agree last night that you are not allowed to talk about those things in the past." The little woman glared at the man with her dark eyes and continued, "Just listen to me. Since I am so lucky to be your wife, I must be able to do my job, manage the harem, handle the relationships between the rooms, and be a good wife to you. Only in this way can I be worthy of the position of Regent Princess."
In just a few days, the little girl he raised since childhood really grew up and became sensible. Compared with the girl who was playing tricks on him a while ago, she was like a completely different person.
The man was relieved, a little sad, and had a vague feeling of loss. In short, the man's mood was very complicated.
"You don't have to work so hard." Lu Ji held his little wife in his arms, with a look of heartache on his face: "After the first few days of marriage, when we have finished following the rules in the palace, I will take you back to the palace to live. It will be just the two of us, and you will be the boss. No one can restrict you. You can do whatever you want and live comfortably."
According to Lu Ji's protective nature, he would protect his young wife well.
After all, the mansion is a century-old aristocratic family with a lot of rules, especially for a new bride, there are too many rules to learn and abide by.
"That won't do." Although she knew that the man was thinking only of her, Qin Xiaoning still flatly refused.
She stopped, looked at the man with clear eyes, and said seriously: "Since I have become the wife of the Lu family, I have to act like a good wife, so that I can convince others. You protect me in the palace, although it is more comfortable, but can I hide in the palace forever? You are the regent king, and I am the princess. There will be many social occasions in the future. If I can't even handle my own relationships, how can I help you manage relationships with all parties in the future?"
The little woman talked in a rambling way and the man listened attentively. He saw her cherry lips opening and closing like a little goldfish. Her pretty face also had a serious look, which made Lu Ji's eyebrows curved.
How can it be so cute?
His little girl is pretty when she smiles, and she is also coquettish when she is angry. Even when she is throwing tantrums at him, there is a special kind of affection between them.
In short, no matter what, in Lu Ji's eyes, his little girl is good and lovely, making him feel soft in his heart.
"Okay, I'll do whatever you say." The man raised his hand and touched her head, speaking casually.
"Oh, I just managed to comb my hair, please don't mess it up." The little woman took his hand away coquettishly, then scolded the man with a stern face: "Do you remember everything I said just now?"
From the time they got married yesterday to now, the little woman had been trying to reason with him from time to time. Lu Ji took a long time to react and asked back, "Are you talking about working hard to become a qualified noble lady?"
Upon hearing this, the little woman immediately corrected him and said, "I don't want to be a qualified lady, I want to be the best, to be a model of ladies in this capital, and even in the whole world. In short, I want to be the best in every aspect."
The little woman had a stern face and spoke seriously.
Lu Ji couldn't help but laugh again.
Qin Xiaoning was so angry that she pinched his flesh: "Lu Ji, I'm not kidding you, be serious."
The man cried out in pain, rubbing the painful flesh from her pinching, while humming, "You said you wanted to be a good wife to me, but is this how you act? You always hit your husband hard."
The little woman came over with a smile and rubbed him, saying coquettishly: "Who asked me to talk to you nicely? You always act so frivolous."
The man glared at her, his tone full of helplessness: "You are still young, why do you want to compare yourself with those noble ladies? You know, being bound by those rules is very tiring."
