Bai Weiyang followed the maid into the dining room and saw Wu Su sitting there with a benevolent smile. Wu Su waved at her!

“Daughter-in-law, come and sit. Come and sit!”

Bai Weiyang still looked sleepy. She yawned and even teared as she stepped into the dining room and sat beside Wu Su.

There were already many breakfast dishes on the table. There were crab roe soup dumplings, beancurd rolls, lotus leaf porridge, lotus root rolls, quicksand dumplings, almond tofu, and white jade milk tea! It was simply dazzling. It was much more sumptuous than usual fare in the Bai Residence.

Bai Weiyang’s casual yawn was a crime that was worthy of the death sentence in the eyes of the maids and servants serving in the dining room.

The person sitting here was the Military Governor’s biological mother! She was a strict person. The day after their wedding, she called the bride over to greet her, but the bride just sat down the moment she arrived and even yawned the whole time. A fool was indeed a fool!

Madam asked her to go over and sit, but she really thought that she was someone important?

Everyone was waiting to watch the show. Initially, they felt indignant for the Military Governor when he had to marry a fool. He had worked diligently and conscientiously for the warlords of Jiangbei Province and the Pingnan Province, but he married a fool in the end! The servants all thought maliciously that they would be even more satisfied if the fool was kicked out on the first day!

Wu Su held Bai Weiyang’s hand. Before she spoke, she specially looked around at the servants in the dining room and said coldly,

“I want to say a few words to my daughter-in-law privately. You don’t have to serve me anymore. You all can leave first!”

While the servants were shocked, they all left the dining room and stood guard outside the door.

Bai Weiyang rubbed her cheeks and began to eat the custard bun without any scruples. It was so hot that the corner of her mouth hurt before she blew on it.

Wu Su had never seen such a carefree girl before, which was to her liking. They sat together as she said,

“How was your sleep last night?”

“Not bad.”

An ambiguous answer!

“I know that brat didn’t go back to his room! Damn it.” Wu Su was furious when she thought of this.

Bai Weiyang was completely awakened by Wu Su’s indignant expression.

She really could not understand this woman.

She called out softly.

“…Madam.”

Wu Su’s face darkened unhappily. “What should you call me?”

Bai Weiyang thought for a moment and said, “Mother!”

“Good girl!”

The little girl was unwilling. She pouted and her helpless tone amused Wu Su.

Most of the young ladies pretended to be a well-bred young lady in front of her in order to catch her eye. They wanted to marry into the Feng Family and become the Military Governor’s wife. Unfortunately… their pretense was too disgusting.

She had never seen a girl who did not know how to pretend in front of her!

Wu Su could not help but sigh.

“I don’t have a daughter. From now on, you’re my biological daughter! Don’t treat me like an outsider. I’m a woman, so I can understand women! If you suffer any grievances in the future, send someone to tell me immediately! If that brat ignores you, I’ll stand up for you.”

Bai Weiyang almost choked on a mouthful of custard bun. She had never expected that she would get married as soon as she transmigrated. Although her husband was a little annoying, this mother-in-law was a decisive and straightforward person who was easy to get along with.

Bai Weiyang grinned.

“Thank you, Mother.”

Wu Su seemed to have thought of something and suddenly said, “Those two concubines are probably very difficult to deal with, but I believe that someone as smart as Weiyang can definitely deal with them.”

“…”

Concubines!

She had even forgotten that there were a few flies in the Military Governor’s residence.
