The Ordinary Man's Guide to Fast Travel

What was placed in the box was actually a set of copper head ornaments. The key point was that it was not a complete set, but was obviously pieced together.

If the normal procedure was followed, the new daughter-in-law would not open the gift box in public. Wu Chunyan stuffed it into the box like garbage, and when she returned to the yard, Chao Yao could only suffer in silence.

The box is so exquisite, who would have thought that these are the things inside?

Even if you tell Chaoyao, others may not believe it!

What's more, saying these words as soon as you enter the door will make others think that Chaoyao is gossipy and spreading family secrets.

So in Wu Chunyan's calculations, there was nothing wrong with today's gift.

But she really didn't expect that her second brother, who usually looked gentle and polite, would be so reckless!

The whole family's eyes were on Wu Chunyan, looking at her and then at the headdress.

Wu Chunyan was so angry that she slammed her hand on the table and shouted:

"They are indeed a small family that is not worthy of being on the stage. They don't know the rules at all!"

After she finished speaking, she stood up and left.

Liu Fufeng, who was so tactless, quickly stepped forward to stop her.

"My sister-in-law is from a wealthy family in the Duke of Wu's mansion, so she naturally knows the rules. This headgear must have been replaced by one of her servants, so it can't be taken seriously."

After saying this, he hurriedly called out to Chao Yao, "Yao Yao, your sister-in-law is the daughter of a wealthy family, and her storehouse is filled with rare treasures. This servant is ignorant, so your sister-in-law will definitely replace you with another one."

Wu Chunyan was furious. "She is worthy of taking the things in my warehouse?"

Liu Fufeng's face turned cold instantly.

"Why, my sister-in-law is just a concubine's daughter, so our legitimate daughter Yaoyao can't use her things?"

"You, you, you!" Wu Chunyan pointed at Liu Fufeng and couldn't utter another word for a long time.

She actually wanted to slap Liu Fufeng in the face. Why was his mouth so disgusting!

But she didn't dare, because Liu Fufeng was a juren. If she beat him, no matter whether it was right or wrong, if the Wu Mansion knew about it, she would be the first one to not let her go.

When Chaoyao saw this situation, he knew that it was not good.

To be honest, I have a lot of things in my space, so I don’t really care too much about money.

She doesn't need anything, so why should she care about the few things Wu Chunyan has.

She approached Liu Fufeng and gently pulled his sleeve.

"Fufeng, my sister-in-law may have been irritated by the servants today, so she said something she didn't think should be necessary. Now she is in a hurry to go to the storehouse to take inventory. With the gift of meeting and the apology just now, I think we won't be left behind. Let her go back first, and I will send the servants to bring it back to my sister-in-law later. My sister-in-law is a young lady from the Duke of Wu's mansion, and she can't be left behind by a daughter of a wealthy man like me."

Mrs. Li and Father Liu put their hands to their lips, unable to help laughing, but trying hard to hold it back.

The color on the face of Liu Fufeng's elder brother Liu Fuyang was as if a color palette had been overturned. He had lost all his dignity as a man, but he didn't dare to say a word to scold Wu Chunyan.

The reason why I married her in the first place was because I was forced to do so by the people above me.

I haven't touched her in all these years, and I feel so depressed!

This wife cannot be criticized or scolded. Out of sight, out of mind. Liu Fuyang turned around.

Wu Chunyan's eyes were immediately fixed on him. Other husbands stood up for their wives like fools, but her own husband remained silent like a decoration.

Under such a contrast, Wu Chunyan's eyes instantly turned red.

But the young lady of the Duke of Wu's mansion could not lose face. She raised her head proudly and said to Chao Yao sarcastically:

"Only a petty woman like you would care about such a small thing. That's all. I'll just give it to you."

As soon as she finished speaking, she couldn't wait to leave.

The bluestone slab on the ground lifted up a little, and she almost fell!

She stomped on the bluestone slab angrily. What a piece of broken stuff! Even a piece of stone could bully her!

I couldn't stop my tears from flowing, and I didn't dare to wipe them with a handkerchief. It would be so embarrassing if Chao Yao and the others saw them!

As soon as Wu Chunyan left, the atmosphere in the room quickly became harmonious.

Liu Fuyang took out two boxes and opened them to show Chao Yao first.

"Brother, please apologize for your sister-in-law's disrespect just now. The distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children in the Wu family is particularly obvious. She is not valued in the Wu family, so after coming to our house, she will inevitably look down on others in order to regain her weak sense of superiority. You don't have to argue with her. She can't do anything evil. At most, she will cause trouble for others."

Chao Yao took the gift box from Liu Fuyang and gave him a set of four treasures of the study.

Li nodded with satisfaction. This second daughter-in-law was emotionally stable, did not make trouble, and was not petty. If her second son achieved success in his career in the future, the affairs of the harem would not hold him back.

"Your eldest sister-in-law has not touched the power of the head of the Liu family. She only needs to take care of the affairs of her own courtyard. I heard from my sister Fang that Yaoyao has also learned how to be a housekeeper at home. In the future, you will stay with me, and you need to understand the affairs of the Liu family as soon as possible."

This meant handing over the leadership of the Liu family to Chao Yao, which she naturally understood.

"Thank you, mother. Yaoyao will study hard."

Li took a stack of indentures and handed them to Chao Yao. "These are the indentures for the servants in your courtyard. With these, if there are any disobedient ones, you can sell them."

Now that’s good, Chaoyao is even happier.

With the indenture in hand, there is no need to worry about the slaves being difficult to control.

In general, the indentures of slaves were in the hands of their mistresses, and there were very few people like Li.

Chaoyao is a grateful person, and the Liu family's attitude today shows their importance and trust in her.

If others treat her well, she will return the favor tenfold.

Such kindness is rare, and she did not encounter many of them during her growth in her previous life.

After drinking tea, the family had breakfast together.

Originally, Chao Yao thought that Li would remind her not to spend too much energy on the affairs of the inner room with Liu Fufeng, or not to delay his studies, but she didn't.

They didn't say anything about what happened between the couple, which made Chao Yao feel relieved.

In her opinion, their affairs should be private and belong only to them. No matter what the point is, it would always be awkward if others interfered.

After dinner, Chao Yao and Liu Fufeng returned to their room.

She had exerted herself yesterday and her whole body felt limp. Now she just wanted to go back to the space and take a bath to quickly get rid of the discomfort in her body.

"Go to the study quickly. I want to take a nap too."

Chao Yao pushed Liu Fufeng. This guy was really clingy. He still had to take the imperial examination and could not be delayed.

Liu Fufeng held Chao Yao tightly and refused to let go. He buried his head deeply in her neck and spoke in a resentful voice.

"I have memorized those books by heart. Madam, we are newly married, why are you sending me away? Are you dissatisfied with my performance last night?"
