Chapter 565: Serving Tea
Gu Fei glanced at her calmly. Concubine Lin had a beautiful face and fair skin. She should be about 40 years old, but she looked like she was only in her 30s. She spoke softly and wore a plain coat, which made her look elegant and refined.
At this time, Shen Qingluan and Xiao Xuan greeted each other and sat down.
Gu Fei took a tray from Lian'er, on which were two pairs of exquisitely crafted shoes.
She smiled and bowed to the prince and princess, "This is a little filial piety from my daughter-in-law. My sewing is crude, I hope my father and mother will not despise it."
These shoes were made by Lanzhi for her, and Gu Fei only sewed a few stitches symbolically.
Madam Xu behind the princess took the tray. The princess took the shoes in her hand and looked at them, and smiled, "It's really a good job. Mother likes it very much."
Gu Fei smiled, not feeling guilty at all. At this time, the princess nodded to Madam Xu, and Madam Xu waved to the side.
A little maid brought a tray with two teacups on it.
Gu Fei knew that they were going to serve tea. Just as she was about to reach out to take the teacups, she heard Shen Qingluan behind her suddenly chuckle, "Why are you in such a hurry? Everyone hasn't arrived yet, why are you serving tea?"
"I think we should wait."
Gu Fei seemed not to hear it, and took the teacups in her hand without a pause. She didn't know who else hadn't arrived, but since the princess had someone bring the teacups over, it meant that she could serve tea.
The princess wouldn't cheat her at this time. After all, if she lost face, it would be bad for the princess.
The prince sat at the top, first glanced at Shen Qingluan, with a somewhat unpredictable look, then looked at Gu Fei, and saw that she was holding the teacups steadily in her hands and had slowly knelt down.
The prince nodded slightly in appreciation. Sure enough, this Miss Gu was extraordinary.
A new daughter-in-law, in such a situation, would either be in a dilemma, or ask her husband, or find out what her parents-in-law meant.
She didn't. She had a firm mind and must have analyzed the situation quickly and was not moved by what others said.
The princess glared at Shen Qingluan fiercely. She knew everything about last night this morning. Shen Qingluan must have had some evil intentions by taking Zheng Wan back.
That's why she was anxious to ask Gu Fei to serve tea.
Shen Qingluan didn't expect Gu Fei to ignore her. If Gu Fei asked a question, she could take the opportunity to tell her about Zheng Wan's existence and ask someone to invite Zheng Wan over.
When she came out, she told the maid to bring Zheng Wan over in a moment, but she didn't know why she hadn't come yet.
She had to speak up to interrupt Gu Fei's tea.
If she didn't serve tea the day after the wedding, it would not be recognized by her parents-in-law.
Here, Gu Fei had already raised the teacup above her head and said respectfully, "Please have some tea, father."
The prince nodded with a smile, and the maid next to him took the teacup and handed it to the prince. The prince took the teacup, took a sip symbolically, put down the teacup, and nodded to Gu Fei, "What a good pair of children and wives, I hope you and Yu'er will live in harmony and grow old together."
As she said this, she waved her hand, and the maid next to her brought a tray with a brocade box on it.
Gu Fei thanked the prince, and Yan'er took the box.
Then Gu Fei took another cup of tea and offered it to the princess.
The princess also said a few auspicious words and sent a red sandalwood box, and no one knew what good things were inside.
Just as Gu Fei was about to get up, another teacup was brought over, and the maid said, "You have to offer tea to the concubine."
