By the time they sent the guests away or arranged for them to go to guest houses or inns, it was already late.
The bridal chamber was still very lively.
Han Qiao and Heng Yi went over to take a look.
Under the bright red lanterns, a joyful voice came from the room.
Although it was a wedding night, everyone still followed the rules and did not do anything vulgar.
Han Qiao and Heng Yi looked at each other and smiled, “Let s go back”
When they returned to the main courtyard, Shulan immediately came forward. “Marquis, Madam, Second Young Master is sleeping here.”
Han Qiao was a little surprised.
This was the first time He Cheng had slept with them.
When they entered the bedroom, the two children were sleeping soundly.
With a tired body and a soft heart, Han Qiao sat down at the side and took out a fan to gently fan them.
Her eyes and brows were filled with gentleness and affection.
As a mother, Han Qiao truly loved these children.
“The hot water is ready. Go and wash up.” Heng Yi’s gentle voice tickled her ear.
“Alright.11
Han Qiao was covered in sweat. She had been awake since dawn, and now she didn’t want to move. However, it wasn’t comfortable to sleep in these clothes, so she still had to take a shower.
She just didn’t expect Heng Yi to follow her in.
Fine. It wasn’t like they were taking a bath.
When Han Qiao was carried out, Heng Yi dried her hair and massaged her shoulders and back.
She didn’t even have the strength to lift her eyelids and pinch Heng Yi.
Being held by Heng Yi, she felt comfortable and fell asleep quickly.
Heng Yi waited for Han Qiao to fall asleep and her hair to dry before tidying himself up.

A man who was physically and mentally satisfied was always very patient. He picked up the two children one by one and coaxed them to pee.
Then, he left the oil lamp in the corner and lay down next to Han Qiao.
The bridal chamber gradually quieted down.
It was the brothers and sisters who made a scene in the bridal chamber. When it was almost time, they went back to sleep.
Han Chi and Li Mi looked at each other. They blushed at first, but then they couldn’t help but laugh.
“Go and wash up first. We re tired after a day, so we should rest early.”
“Alright.11
Han Chi was young, so it was impossible for him to consummate the marriage. Han Qiao refused to allow him to do so.
There were some things that Han Qiao would give in to, but she had her own principles and had made it clear to the Gong Prince’s consort from the start.
Han Chi was young and had a tender body.
The Gong Prince’s consort also told Li Mi not to consummate the marriage with Han Chi early.
She could make her own decisions on some matters, but she had to discuss with her mother-in-law about such a big matter like consummation.
After all, they had to live together for many years, unless Han Qiao suggested splitting up and separating Han Chi.
Even if she was a princess, there were some things like filial piety that she needed to abide by.
The young couple lay down next to each other. Han Chi gathered his courage and held Li Mi’s hand.
Li Mi held him back.
“Let’s sleep.” Han Chi said softly.
“Yes.”
They had been tired for many days and were tense. Now that the outcome was set, they relaxed and quickly fell asleep.
When the people guarding outside heard that there was no more movement in the room, they went to sleep too.
The sun rose, and a new day arrived.
Han Qiao woke up a little early because her new daughter-in-law was going to serve tea today.
The rest of the family also woke up early. They had breakfast in the dining room first and then went to the living room to chat.
They waited for the couple to wake up.
Han Qiao didn’t let anyone rush them. After all, this wasn’t easy for them.
They were still children.
The Heng family did prepare some gifts, but they weren’t anything valuable.
The Han family had also prepared some things, but they were also not valuable.
Li Mi and Han Chi entered the room.
They kowtowed to their parents first.
“Father, have some tea.”
“Mother, have some tea.”
Heng Yi gave them a red paper bag with a silver note inside.
Han Qiao gave them a jade bracelet wrapped in red paper.
“Get up and get to know your family first.”
The Heng Family was very polite and fawned over the newlywed couple.
Which meant that they did not dare to play any tricks.
Father Han lookout the red seal he had prepared and handed it to Li Mi. He said, “Since you’re married into our family, you have to keep your place…”
“Father,” Han Qiao warned.
Li Mi smiled at the older man, “Thank you, Grandpa.”
“Yes.”
Li Mi immediately thanked him, took the red envelope, and served tea to Han Yuan.
Han Yuan’s expression was not very good as she gave her a silver lock.
The silver lock was very thin. Han Qiao took a deep breath when she saw that.
Li Mi’s expression did not change.
She didn’t care if they gave her more or less.
After receiving the greeting gift, Li Mi gave a filial gift that was ten times more expensive than what Father Han and Han Yuan gave.
Han Qiao’s uncles also gave her silver products, but they looked thick and heavy. Compared to the thin silver sheets Han Yuan gave, they were worth much more.
To her new cousins, Li Mi gave them bracelets and jade pendants. The patterns were different, but they were all good things.
The gifts she gave to her three younger sisters and two younger brothers were different. She gave each of them a shop.

Although it wasn’t in a bustling area, each building cost four to five thousand taels of silver. There was a small courtyard at the back. It was good to rent the shop.
The Han and Heng families were envious.
As expected of the princess of the royal family, she was very generous.
Han Chi looked at the greedy faces of the Han and Heng family members and was displeased, but he didn’t show it.
After serving tea, the cousins said that they wanted to go to the wedding room to play.
Han Qiao smiled, “I was thinking of taking you out to buy something.”
“Then let’s go out and buy something,” Old Woman Heng spoke first.
Han Qiao asked Han Chi and Li Mi to go back and rest for a while.
They were not in a hurry to organize the gifts at home.
After Han Chi and Li Mi left.
Han Qiao smiled, “Father, Mother, what do you lack in the countryside? Tell me about it. We’ll go buy it so that you can bring them back.”
No matter how stupid they were, they could tell that Han Qiao wanted them to leave.
Father Han and Mother Han remained silent.
The three Han brothers pursed their lips.
Uncle Han was surprised. Uncle Yi glanced at Han Qiao.
Han Qiao was still smiling.
However, her smile was a little cold.
Uncle Yao looked at his brother and sister-in-law, sighed, and said nothing.
Who was to blame?
A filial daughter, and a fool.
Everything was turning for the better, and they used to be satisfied with what they had.
Old Woman Heng asked softly, “Daughter-in-law, we… We will be obedient in the future. We will not cause trouble for you and Old Fifth. Can you let us stay?”
“Your brothers-in-law can also run errands. Don’t worry…”
Heng Yi suddenly stood up.
Old Woman Heng couldn’t continue the words she was about to say.
Her eyes reddened and she choked, “Then, then can we leave the children here? If we take them back with us, they’ll only farm for the rest of their lives. Their lives will be ruined.”
As Old Woman Heng spoke, she got up and knelt down, “Old Fifth, I’ve let you down in the past. I’ve been reflecting on myself every day. I regret it, 1 regret treating you like that.”
Old Woman Heng was humbling herself.
Heng Yi remained calm.
He said lightly, “There’s no need to be so pretentious. It s useless.”
He had a heart of stone. Even if he was soft-hearted, he would only treat his immediate family kindly.
These people from the Heng family were never his family..
