Chapter 61 Chi Guiying's Difficult Situation
"Madam, the young mistress said she's hungry and wants the kitchen to send her some food, but on this joyous occasion, I dare not obey. I've come specifically to ask you, Madam, if you would like some food sent over?"
Logically speaking, this shouldn't be a big deal, but the entire Lü family was not very satisfied with Chi Guiying, their new bride. Therefore, the servants acted according to the situation, wanting to give this new young mistress a hard time.
"Hmph, all you know is eating. You're not allowed to send her anything. Shao Tong hasn't even lifted her veil yet. What's the point of eating now?"
"Yes, I understand. I will go and report back immediately."
Inside the bridal chamber, Chi Guiying suppressed her anger as she listened to the old woman's reply. Wenxia, the maid who had married into the family with her, also felt deeply humiliated.
What a load of rubbish! The Lü family wouldn't even prepare a meal for their daughter, yet they have the nerve to say so much. If the Lü family were truly so concerned with their reputation, why would they resort to such despicable tactics, forcing their daughter to marry into the family?!
Just as he was about to retort, he saw his young mistress wave her hand and say something completely unconcerned.
"Alright, since it's the rule of the manor, I, as the young mistress, shall naturally abide by it. Go down, and leave my personal maid to serve you."
"Yes, young lady."
They appear respectful on the surface, but secretly look down on each other; the entire Lü family, however, is of one mind.
After everyone left, the maidservant, Xia Cai, stepped forward and said to Chi Guiying, "Miss, you've been wronged. If our mistress were still alive, how could the Lü family dare to offend her like this!"
“You know we need to make sure Mother is well, but right now her life is hanging in the balance, and we don’t know how many more days she has left. So we have to keep a low profile and behave ourselves. These next few days, whatever the son-in-law says goes. Don’t easily anger him. I still want him to help me ask him to bring Mother to the estate to recuperate. Otherwise, I’m afraid she’ll really be facing a dead end.”
The maid wiped away Xia's tears, knowing her mistress's suffering, and could only nod, serving her wholeheartedly.
"You're the only one who truly cares for me now, so please don't become distant or estranged from me. I know your husband has done some disgusting things to you, but since you've married into this family, such things are bound to happen again in the future. Just bear with it. Once Mother gets better, we'll definitely find another way out, understand?"
Upon hearing this, Wen Xia immediately knelt down in front of Chi Guiying, her eyes brimming with tears as she made her promise.
"What are you saying, young lady? I've been with you since I was a child, and my life belongs to you. Of course, I'll obey your orders. We'll wait together for Madam to recover, and there will definitely be an opportunity!"
Both master and servant wept bitterly, but because it was a joyous occasion, they could only suppress their sobs, which were barely audible from outside.
When Lü Yi returned to the bridal chamber, both master and servant had composed themselves.
Because he hadn't drunk any alcohol, he was perfectly sober. He lifted the veil, drank the nuptial cup, and each cut off a strand of hair to tie together. Some auspicious longans and peanuts were scattered inside the tent, and that was the end of the ceremony.
After changing into a simpler nightgown, Chi Guiying's fair skin was faintly visible. Lu Yi was not a solitary cultivator, so he naturally reacted upon seeing this.
People say that the wedding night is one of the greatest joys in life, so he lowered his voice and said to Chi Guiying with a flicker of emotion in his eyes.
"Let's settle in."
As he spoke, he reached for her collar, intending to unbutton the button, but Chi Guiying stopped him.
"Wait a minute."
"What do you mean? You don't want me to touch you?"
Lu Yi's expression was not good. Although he knew that the second daughter of the Chi family did not marry him out of sincerity and that there were many things standing in the way, he could not act like a gentleman after being rejected on their wedding night.
“My husband has misunderstood. Now that I have married into this family, we are husband and wife. I know my duty. However, it is best to make some things clear beforehand, otherwise, I am afraid that there will be disagreements in the future.”
Chi Guiying feigned pitifulness and innocence, which Lu Yi naturally couldn't see through, so he asked a question.
"What do you want to say?"
"What happened that day was a huge blow to me. My mother was also seriously injured. Now that I'm married, I'm considered to have left that family, but I still worry about my mother's injuries. I was thinking that if my husband could help me speak to my father and let me take my mother to the estate to recuperate, I would be extremely grateful!"
Lü Yi wasn't stupid. She knew that Madam Guo was one of the reasons the Chi family threatened her to marry into the family. If she rashly agreed, it was uncertain whether the Vice Minister's Mansion would agree. So she replied immediately.
"That's true, but I'm afraid I don't have that kind of face in front of my father-in-law."
“How could my husband not have any? When I married into the family, I received several bolts of fine fabric. I’ll have my mother-in-law send them to the palace. My dear sister, you can do whatever you want with them, whether you use them yourself or give them away. They are all my heartfelt wishes.”
Seeing how "appreciative" she was, Lü Yi also had his own ideas.
“It’s good that you have this idea, but I can’t guarantee that I can get your father’s approval. After all, our marriage isn’t exactly respectable in his eyes, so…”
The matter is divided into two parts: neither accepting nor refusing.
Knowing she didn't have much leverage, Chi Guiying suppressed her dislike for Lü Yi and instead began to fawn over him.
She wrapped her arms around his neck, her dew-like eyes filled with resignation.
"Husband, please help my mother out of consideration for me. Otherwise, I won't know how to face my family in the future. Besides, if my mother recovers, she will still be the lawfully wedded wife of the Vice Minister. In the future, she will have to pay more attention to this marriage for my sake, won't she?"
That's right, and Lü Yi understands this principle too.
He just didn't want Chi Guiying to succeed right now, so he teasingly grabbed her round breasts, startling Chi Guiying into trying to pull her hand back, but Lü Yi took the initiative and suppressed her.
"Madam has said so much, but she hasn't shown any action. This won't do."
Chi Guiying looked at the face in front of her and almost vomited.
But for her mother's sake, she had no choice but to feign submission. Finally, blushing, she climbed onto Lü Yi's back, and the two spent a restless night in the warm embrace of their bed.
The next day, Chi Guiying woke up early in the morning.
Looking at her husband, who was still fast asleep beside her, she couldn't hide the disgust in her eyes. He looked like a wolf, but he was just a pretty face. Their first night together should have been shy and beautiful, but instead it was full of unpleasant memories.
He deliberately made such a commotion last night, just to make outsiders think he was so powerful, but in reality...
Chi Guiying sneered. She would break off this engagement sooner or later!
She got up and changed her clothes, then asked her maid, Xia, to come in and serve her. When she saw the marks on her young mistress's body from her arguments, her eyes involuntarily welled up with tears. "Miss, are you alright?"
