The courtyard was filled with the sound of gongs and drums. The Prince's Mansion was particularly lively today. Xiao Cheng was sitting on his horse, looking heroic, and following behind him were the family members and servants of the mansion.
"I heard that this old lady Xiao is back."
The common people gathered together to watch the excitement. This was considered a happy event for the Prince's Mansion. Since the last time the Prince got married, they rarely saw such a bustling scene outside the Prince's Mansion.
"This old lady Xiao also spent her life in the military. Later, she went to Qingcheng Mountain to pray for blessings. Now that she is back, it is just right that she can spend her remaining years in the mansion."
Yu Caiwei lifted the curtain and took a look. Madam Xiao came back at a perfect time, just before the birthday party at the princess's mansion. It seemed that she probably came back because of the birthday party at the princess's mansion.
"Princess, today is a good day for Madam Xiao to return. I'm afraid your clothes are not appropriate."
Baocui spoke cautiously. This dress looked too old-fashioned and didn't look like something a Crown Prince's Consort would wear at her age.
Yu Caiwei looked down at the outfit, and it happened to be this outfit that made Yu Caijiao the first to win the old lady's favor in her previous life.
In her previous life, she was too slow to react, always letting Yu Caijiao take the initiative. In this life, she would never give her another chance.
“Baocui, Madam Xiao will like this dress.”
Mount Qingcheng was a place of plain and elegant beauty, and she didn't want to wear brightly coloured clothes to attract Madam Xiao's attention.
If you want to get the attention of Old Madam Xiao, you have to please her.
The carriage stopped, Baocui got off first, and then helped Yu Caiwei walk to the front.
She is the Crown Prince's wife and should stand by the Crown Prince's side.
Xiao Cheng glanced at the people around him, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, but no one noticed his little emotion.
A bell rang from the top of the mountain, and everyone immediately looked up at the long stairs at the entrance of the mountain.
The elderly woman came down with the help of the nanny beside her. Seeing this, Xiao Cheng immediately bowed and saluted.
"grandmother."
Yu Caiwei immediately did as he did, and then went up to greet him with him.
Madam Xiao's face was covered with wrinkles, but her eyes were still very shrewd and nothing escaped her sight.
"Is this the wife you married?" Old Madam Xiao's gaze fell on Yu Caiwei, with a hint of approval in her eyes.
She was dressed simply, which was just what she liked. She looked generous and had the elegance of a prince's mansion.
"Grandma." Yu Caiwei knelt down and walked forward. Madam Xiao immediately stretched out her hand and placed it in her palm.
This action meant that she had recognized Yu Caiwei, and she felt relieved to have her as the mistress of Dingyuan Marquis Mansion.
"You must have been tired from the journey. This carriage is already equipped with everything you need. If there is anything wrong, just call me."
Xiao Cheng spoke slowly with a calm expression.
What a filial son.
Yu Caiwei was a little surprised. In his previous life, Xiao Cheng was very filial and listened to Old Madam Xiao very much. He was still the same in this life.
The carriage of Marquis Dingyuan's mansion returned to Bianliang from Qingcheng Mountain with a large number of people. The noise was so loud that everyone in Bianliang knew about it.
"You have a lot of things to do, so just let Caiwei take me to the courtyard." Old Lady Xiao's eyes fell on Yu Caiwei, and she immediately walked over and stood beside her.
Grandma said this, it seemed that she had something to say to her. Xiao Cheng nodded slightly and turned to go to the study.
"Grandmother, I'm Caijiao, and the prince also married me into the mansion that day." Yu Caijiao came forward from behind. That day, the prince married the two daughters of the Yu family and there was such a lively event, but why didn't Madam Xiao even ask her a question?
After all, she is the wife of Marquis Dingyuan. Old Madam Xiao is so short-sighted that she can only see that bitch Yu Caiwei.
Sure enough, even the words they said were exactly the same.
In her previous life, she was dressed too brightly and failed to win the old lady's favor. However, Yu Caijiao's sensational behavior made the old lady take a liking to her clothes at first sight.
"Grandma, this is my second sister from my mother's side." Yu Caiwei spoke immediately.
Old Madam Xiao looked Yu Caijiao up and down. She seemed lively and clever, but not steady and generous enough. She could only be a concubine.
In the past, they were distinguished between wife and concubine, but later people felt that this term sounded bad, so concubines were also called madam.
"When did you get the chance to speak here?" Old Madam Xiao's words embarrassed Yu Caijiao, and her face looked particularly ugly for a moment.
Yu Caiwei glanced at her and spoke slowly, "Grandma, the yard has been cleaned, and a few sensible maids have been selected. If you need anything, just tell Caiwei."
Old Madam Xiao raised her head and glanced at the sign on the gate of the mansion. She didn't expect that after so many years, the sign was still so new.
The Xiao family's glory will not stop here. On the contrary, it will only get better and better.
When everyone entered the house, Yu Caijiao was still standing outside the door. The moment she raised her eyes, hatred was revealed in her eyes.
Why is it that she is unpopular everywhere, but Yu Caiwei can win the old lady's favor just by standing in front?
"Second Madam, let's go back to the house."
The maid looked around and saw that there were still many people outside the mansion watching the fun, and they were all discussing something.
Yu Caijiao clenched her hands at her sides into fists and walked into the yard angrily.
An old tree in the huge courtyard was dropping leaves, and Old Madam Xiao was watching all this with emotion in her eyes.
"This tree was evergreen in the early years, but now even the leaves have turned yellow." This tree is also quite old. When she left Hou Mansion and went to Qingcheng Mountain, this tree was still very green.
Time passed really quickly. After the old man passed away, Xiao Cheng grew up.
"Now that grandma is back, the tree will return to its former splendor." Yu Caiwei curled the corners of her mouth. Old Madam Xiao loved to hear these nice words. She said little in her previous life, but now she has to say more.
"I was not at home on the day you got married, so today I am making up for it by giving you the gift. You are also the mistress of this mansion, so you must be careful and cautious in everything you do." As soon as Madam Xiao finished speaking, the nanny behind her took out a box.
The patterns on the surface of the box look extremely exquisite, so I guess this box must be worth a lot of money.
"Madam Zhao, open the box."
Inside the box was a shiny bead that looked as big as a fist. She had never seen such a thing before.
There was a hint of surprise in Yu Caiwei's eyes. Where did Old Madam Xiao get this thing?
The surface of this bead looks very smooth and it glows, it is truly extraordinary.
"This is a night-shining pearl. It was given to me by the old lady when I married into the Hou Mansion. Now I give it to you as a token of my recognition of your status."
When Old Madam Xiao talked about this bead, she recalled things from the past. She was the same age as this girl back then, and she was not as calm and composed as her when she first married into the Marquis's Mansion.
At that time she was still a little girl and had no idea what it meant to be the head of the family. But many years passed and she did quite well back then.
"Thank you, grandma." Yu Caiwei took the box. This thing should have been given to Yu Caijiao in the previous life.
