Chapter 363 I Want to Serve You
Xizhu immediately shut her mouth and silently stepped aside.
Yu Wan looked at Yun Shang, her eyes sparkling with a gentle light.
For Yun Shang, who had already reached the limit of his patience, Yu Wan's current appearance was nothing short of a silent invitation.
He was too ashamed to speak of it, but right now, Yu Wan's every move was fatally attractive to him.
Yun Shang suppressed the surging emotions in her heart and avoided Yu Wan's gaze.
His voice softened unconsciously as he said, "I'll go to the front yard first and be right back."
Yu Wan nodded obediently, "Okay, I'll wait for you."
Upon hearing her words, "I'll wait for you," Yun Shang's expression faltered slightly.
He was naturally aloof, and this aloofness subtly influenced those around him; no one would say such things to his face.
Yun Shang couldn't help but look at her face again, his heart filled with reluctance to leave. But after a moment of silence, he still softly hummed in agreement and turned to leave.
As soon as Yun Shang left, Yu Wan immediately called out to Xi Zhu with a pained expression, "Xi Zhu, quick, quick, help me hold up my headdress!"
The phoenix crown was far too heavy; her neck couldn't bear it.
Xizhu quickly helped her up.
Just as she touched the phoenix crown, she saw a figure return from the doorway.
Yun Shang took a few steps closer, his dark eyes looking in their direction, and said, "Xi Zhu, help Madam remove her hairpins."
This time, Xizhu didn't remind him that it was against the rules. She had already figured out that the son-in-law only cared about his wife and didn't care about these rules.
She smiled and responded.
Yun Shang seemed to have come back specifically to explain this matter, and after speaking, he left without lingering.
Xizhu pondered for a moment, walked to the door and looked around for a while before returning to report: "Miss, the young master has already gone to the front yard."
Yu Wan didn't care whether he went to the front yard or not. Since Yun Shang said it was okay to take it, she naturally didn't want to carry such a heavy thing on her head anymore.
However, just as Xizhu placed her hand on her head, another voice came from the doorway.
"No, no, Yu Niang, Shang Ge'er will have to come and take off the phoenix crown for you later."
The people who came were Shen Shi and Yun Xi.
When Madam Shen saw that Xizhu was about to remove the hairpin from Yu Wan, she immediately stepped forward to stop her. "Yu Niang, according to the rules, Yunshang should remove it for you. If you think it's too heavy, we can help you hold it up."
Yu Wan and Xi Zhu exchanged a glance, and Xi Zhu silently lowered her hand.
Yu Wan secretly convinced herself that even if she was tired, it would only be for today, and she could still hold on.
Yunxi stood to the side with a smile, carefully looking at Yu Wan, her eyes full of genuine affection: "Sister-in-law, you look so beautiful today."
Madam Shen glanced at her with a smile, "When is your sister-in-law ever not beautiful?"
In any case, Madam Shen felt that there was no better daughter-in-law in the world than Yu Niang.
Not only was Yu Niang capable and beautiful, but she was also very filial and sensible.
Moreover, since Yu Wan and her son's relationship has become increasingly harmonious, even her son, who was so cold-hearted that she felt he had no feelings for her, has now become more vibrant.
After saying a few words, Madam Shen instructed Yunxi: "Yu Niang is sitting alone in the room and is bored. Xi'er, you stay here and keep Yu Niang company and talk to her."
Madam Shen also had to go to the front yard to entertain guests, and it was only with great difficulty that she managed to find the time to come here.
Yunxi was naturally happy to stay and chat with Yu Wan.
With Yunxi and Xizhu helping to support the phoenix crown, Yu Wan wasn't too tired. She felt like she hadn't been chatting with Yunxi for long when she heard the servant's voice coming from the doorway.
"Quickly, the son-in-law is drunk, go prepare some hangover soup."
Yu Wan looked towards the door, and Yun Xi also stood up.
Is her brother's alcohol tolerance really that low?
Yun Shang was half-supported and half-carried into the house by several servants.
His steps were unsteady, his eyes were glazed, and his cheeks were flushed as if he had applied rouge; he was clearly quite drunk.
Yunxi looked at her brother, then at Yu Wan, and whispered, "Sister-in-law, I'm leaving now."
Before Yu Wan could respond, Yun Xi had already quickly left the bridal chamber.
This was the first time Yu Wan had ever seen Yun Shang drunk. She didn't even care about the heavy phoenix crown on her head. Curious, she quickly walked forward and couldn't help but curl her lips when she saw Yun Shang's appearance.
"How much alcohol did he drink?" Yu Wan asked softly, reaching out to gently support Yun Shang's arm.
The servant who brought the wine cup looked at him with a complicated expression and said, "Just one cup."
One cup and you're dead?
Yu Wan's first reaction was that it was impossible.
However, upon careful recollection of the original text, it was stated that Yun Shang was an extremely self-disciplined person who would never allow himself to make mistakes due to drinking. Therefore, it seems that he truly never drank alcohol.
He's a lightweight; it's possible he'll collapse after just one drink.
Yun Shang was being supported by Yu Wan. He seemed to hear Yu Wan's voice, and his previously unfocused gaze focused slightly.
His dark eyes stared at Yu Wan, and after recognizing who she was, he rushed into her arms. "Wan'er, I...I'm fine."
He doesn't look like he's alright at all.
Yu Wan was almost knocked down by him, but luckily the servant caught Yun Shang in time.
The maidservant quickly brought over some hangover soup. After Yun Shang drank it, the servant helped him take off his outer robe and helped him to bed. Then, all the maidservants and servants tacitly withdrew.
Only Yu Wan and Yun Shang remained in the new house.
Yu Wan stood by the bed, looking at Yun Shang who seemed to be completely drunk and unconscious, and was still a little dazed.
Is this how her wedding night ends?
Yu Wan was initially a little nervous, but seeing Yun Shang so drunk, her nervousness vanished instantly.
She stared at Yun Shang for a while, sighed softly, turned around and walked to the dressing table, preparing to remove her hairpins.
However, just as she was about to take off a hairpin, she heard a noise behind her.
Before she could even turn her head, she smelled a cool fragrance mixed with the scent of alcohol. The next moment, the hairpin in her hand was taken away and removed.
The man's clear, cool voice was slightly hoarse. "My mother told me earlier that, according to the rules, I should be the one to remove the phoenix coronet and wedding gown."
His eyes still held a hint of intoxication, unlike his usual calm and composed demeanor; he was indeed still drunk.
Unexpectedly, even when he was drunk, he was still thinking about getting her a phoenix coronet and wedding gown. Yu Wan pursed her lips, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up slightly.
Yun Shang gently placed the hairpin she had taken off on the dressing table, her gaze tender and fixed on the woman before her.
Perhaps because he had been drinking, his hands were not as steady as usual, but his movements were still careful and cautious, as if he were afraid of hurting her.
Yu Wan stared at the bronze mirror in front of her and clearly saw Yun Shang's movements.
She couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth into a smile again.
Yun Shang's movements were slow, but Yu Wan didn't feel that he was dawdling at all. She just watched quietly as he slowly removed the hairpins from her.
He also took off her elaborate wedding dress.
Although Yun Shang's movements were slow, Yu Wan didn't feel that he was dawdling at all. She just quietly watched him remove the hairpins for her little by little.
Then, he gently removed her elaborate wedding dress.
Yu Wan's heart inexplicably quickened.
Just as Yu Wan was about to speak, she saw Yun Shang walk a few steps toward the door and order in a cool voice, "Prepare water."
The people waiting outside were taken aback when they heard this.
Wasn't the young master supposed to be drunk? How can he still be so clear-headed as to give orders?
Yu Wan couldn't help but look at Yun Shang with a puzzled expression.
He doesn't look drunk at all.
But when the servants brought in the water, and Yun Shang squatted in front of her, saying "I want to serve you" with his dark eyes, Yu Wan thought it best that he was drunk.
