The queen is crazy and spoiled, and the tyrant bows to her

Chapter 563 Extra Thank You Banquet (3)

Old Madam Xie placed a piece of lotus-crusted chicken thigh into Jiang Wantang's bowl. The smile in the corners of her eyes was filled with kindness and love. "Come on, Tang girl, eat more. You look a lot thinner than last time..."

"A Yan said you like sweet food. Come, try these rice dumplings made with fermented glutinous rice." Old Madam Xie poured her a small bowl and poured a large spoonful of osmanthus honey over it. "Our mansion is different from other mansions. We don't have those rules of morning and evening visits, nor do we have wives and concubines. We are all family, so there's no need to worry about those empty formalities."

"From now on, just sleep until noon, as long as you want..."

Halfway through her words, Madam Xie suddenly lowered her voice and leaned closer as if sharing a secret: "Back then, when Ayan's grandfather was young, he even dared to ask for leave from the morning court just to let me sleep a little longer!"

After saying that, he laughed happily.

Jiang Wantang's pupils widened in surprise as she looked at Xie Zhiyan who was peeling shrimp for her.

Xie Zhiyan's eyes were full of smiles. He tilted his head and smiled at her. Then he placed a small plate of freshly peeled shrimps in front of her and said softly, "Eat..."

"That's right, mother." The Marquis's wife also smiled and handed over a bowl of bird's nest and candied date soup. "We in our mansion are looking forward to your loving and harmonious relationship with your young couple..."

She looked very healthy, and her well-maintained face was filled with a gentle smile: "Tangtang, this candied date soup is very nourishing, you should use more..."

Jiang Wantang lowered her eyes to look at the small bowls piled high with dishes in front of her: the shrimp Xie Zhiyan had peeled, the rice dumplings with fermented rice wine served by her grandmother, and the bird's nest and candied date soup served by her mother-in-law...

Suddenly, an indescribable sourness filled my heart, and even my nose and eye sockets felt sore.

No one has ever treated her so well...

She had never felt such warmth before.

Jiang Wantang could see that although the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion was a high-class family among high-class families, the family tradition was very good. The heads of the family in all generations only married one wife, and there were no concubines or maids in the mansion, and the relationship between husband and wife was very good.

Although his father-in-law, Xie Chong, looked stern and unsmiling, he was gentle and considerate to his wife and extremely filial to his grandmother. Although he didn't say much during the meal, he served the dishes to the two of them naturally and skillfully...

He was also very generous to her, a junior.

The family members are well-known outside, indifferent and noble, and capable of standing on their own. However, at home, they have no temper or airs. They are just a simple family, without the intrigue and scheming of the harem, weighing the pros and cons...

Ordinary families cannot do this, let alone a top aristocratic family like the Xie family.

It was because of this that Jiang Wantang understood why the Xie family had been able to maintain its high status for hundreds of years.

In addition to the many outstanding men of the Xie family, their family tradition is strict, they are strict with themselves and kind to others.

They are all upright people with real abilities.

Nor will we look down on or despise her just because of her background or bad reputation.

So, this is what family is?

Jiang Wantang likes this home very much.

So she picked up the jade chopsticks, lowered her head and ate all the dishes that everyone picked for her.

The food in the Marquis' Mansion tasted delicious, more delicious than she had ever tasted before.

A taste of home...

By the end of the meal, Jiang Wantang's bright peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly.

Xie Zhiyan looked at her eating with a satisfied look on her face, his smiling eyes showing undisguised pampering and tenderness.

How can someone be so cute even when eating?

How do you look at it, how do you like it...

Seeing that Jiang Wantang had almost finished eating, he poured a cup of tea and placed it next to her.

Jiang Wantang picked it up and drank it casually, and Xie Zhiyan's lips curled up unconsciously.

The relationship between the two became more and more natural.

After lunch, Old Lady Xie pulled Jiang Wantang to sit beside her. Seeing her in a plain silk dress with only a white jade hairpin in her hair, she couldn't help but sigh, "This girl Tang is too plain..."

Turning to Xie Zhiyan who was peeling an orange, he said, "Ah Yan, if you have nothing to do today, take Tang girl to stroll along the long street and pick out some nice clothes and jewelry."

"I heard that Jinxiufang has just received a batch of brightly colored floating brocade, which is perfect for our Tang girl's stunning appearance."

Jiang Wantang thought of her room full of clothes and jewelry, as well as the huge pile in the storeroom. She was about to decline, but Old Madam Xie smiled and patted her hand, "Young ladies should dress brightly and beautifully."

"Our little girl Tang is so beautiful, she deserves the finest brocade robe to match her beauty!"

The Marquis's wife smiled and replied, "Mother is right. Beauty is like jade, and needs gold and jade as ornaments."

"Tangtang is so beautiful, how can she let Su Yi Bai Yu bury her beauty?"

Jiang Wantang felt embarrassed by the two people's praise, and the tips of her ears turned slightly red.

Xie Zhiyan smiled and stood up, cupping his hands: "Grandma, what mother said is absolutely right."

After saying that, he took Jiang Wantang's hand and left.

Before the two of them left, the Marquis' wife smiled and instructed, "Pick out some bright colors. Mother will have someone pick out some ruby ​​headpieces for the evening party."

Xie Zhiyan nodded in agreement.

Old Madam Xie looked at the two of them leaving hand in hand and said with a smile, "Look, what a perfect match!"

“It’s a match made in heaven...”

The maids and old women in the room all laughed and agreed.

......

Jiang Wantang thought Xie Zhiyan was going to take her out of the house, but she didn't expect him to take her back to the bedroom.

Walking into the house, Jiang Wantang raised her eyes and looked at him in confusion.

Xie Zhiyan lowered his eyelashes, a faint smile on the corner of his lips. He said, "Tangtang, how about changing into that red dress?"

Jiang Wantang opened her eyes...

Xie Zhiyan leaned over and whispered in her ear, "I want to see..."

As he approached, a light and crisp scent of cedar came. It was not very aggressive, but inexplicably made people's heart beat faster.

Jiang Wantang was just stunned for a moment, and then she was pushed into the inner room by the man to change clothes.

Soon, Jiang Wantang changed into the red gauze dress inlaid with gems that Xie Zhiyan had chosen for her earlier, and also put on a luxurious red pearl hairpin on her head.

When she walked out of the inner room, Xie Zhiyan's eyes darkened instantly, and his Adam's apple rolled...

Jiang Wantang was wearing a long dress with wide sleeves dyed with cinnabar, covered with red and gold gauze, and a sash lightly tied around her waist, which showed off her slender waist, which was so thin that it could be held in one hand.

The red dress contrasts with her snow-white skin, the black hair sets off her red lips, and there is a natural charm between her eyebrows and eyes. She is so charming and beautiful.

She just stood there quietly, yet she was already full of life.

As she walked towards him gracefully, the golden hairpins in her hair swayed lightly, filling the room with light, and every step she took seemed to be stepping on Xie Zhiyan's heart.

Even his breathing quickened a bit...

However, Jiang Wantang was completely unaware of this and looked at him with a pair of watery, clear eyes.

Those eyes are like a pool of spring water, and the eyes are flowing, enchanting and captivating...

I'm afraid even the most pure-hearted monk would be tempted by it.

Xie Zhiyan's eyes darkened and darkened, and he thought to himself: As expected, red suits her best!

Afterwards, he raised the corners of his lips slightly and walked towards Jiang Wantang...
