Meanwhile, the bride, Zhou Yaping, had no desire to go out and entertain those country bumpkins, so she used the excuse of not feeling well to hide in the bridal chamber.
But she wasn't idle inside. While listening to the commotion outside, she decided to explore her new room.
'This is my future home, after all. I should get to know it properly.'
The room had clearly been tidied up. The walls were freshly whitewashed with several coats. Though they were still too fresh to touch, they made the room look much brighter. In the room stood a double bed, covered with a bright red bedsheet and two bright red quilts. Zhou Yaping walked over and felt the fabric. It was impressively thick, and she couldn't help but feel smug. 'See? I've got my mother-in-law wrapped around my finger. My family didn't send over any bedding, but the Old Li Family still had to obediently provide a new set.'
