So it's actually quite reasonable that she speaks and acts so exaggeratedly now!
Moreover, judging from Li Niangzi's appearance, she must have gotten up very early and been waiting at the door for Wei Tingyu and the others to open it!
Just imagining this scene is quite comical! But it does fit Li Niangzi's behavior!
"Mother!" Shouhua smiled slightly, then said to Li Niangzi, "I'm going back to the Marquis's residence with my second sister later!"
"Of course! Of course!" Lady Li was naturally prepared. She was not surprised at all and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Then let's have breakfast here first!"
After saying that, she ignored Shouhua and Fuhui, grabbed Wei Tingyu's arm, and pulled him towards the front hall.
"I personally prepared breakfast today! Son-in-law, you must eat more!"
Watching Wei Tingyu's helpless figure being dragged away by his mother, Shouhua and Fuhui exchanged a glance and then laughed at the same time.
Of course, after laughing, the two women quickly lifted their skirts and followed.
At this teahouse, Wei Tingyu naturally sat in the main seat for breakfast! Shouhua and Fuhui sat on either side of him, serving him his meal.
Li Niangzi sat next to Shouhua, just one seat away from Wei Tingyu, and she very attentively added rice and dishes for Wei Tingyu.
Their enthusiasm left Kang Ninghao, Le Shan, and the other two women speechless.
Kang Ning, in particular, curled her lip and immediately started to criticize Wei Tingyu after seeing his spoiled and pampered manner.
"This dignified Marquis is now like a useless person?" Kang Ning blinked and looked at Wei Tingyu, saying, "He's probably the same in the Marquis's mansion! Without women, the Marquis probably can't even eat!"
Wei Tingyu wasn't surprised at all by Kang Ning's words; this girl dared to criticize him in public.
After all, if she didn't have the guts, she wouldn't be the Third Sister of the Li family! On the contrary, Kang Ning right now gave him a stronger desire to conquer her!
When Kang Ning noticed Wei Tingyu's gaze, she keenly sensed that the man's interest in her seemed to be growing stronger!
But the problem is, I didn't even try to attract his attention!
Could it be that he actually likes my type? Thinking this, Kang Ning's face flushed slightly, completely losing the imposing air she had when she was criticizing Wei Tingyu.
Of course, her words immediately aroused Li Niangzi's dissatisfaction at the dinner table.
"Third Sister! What do you mean by that?"
"The Marquis's hands are for great things! For trivial matters like eating, a woman can take care of everything!"
"You should learn from your older sisters! Otherwise you'll become clumsy and make a fool of yourself in the future!"
Lady Li glared at Kang Ning and unleashed a barrage of rebukes.
Although he didn't say anything harsh, his tone was quite stern, and Kang Ning could only shrink back, not daring to reply.
"Mother is right!" The eldest aunt nodded slightly, then turned to Kang Ning and said, "How about we switch places, Third Sister? You can learn how to serve the Marquis now?"
“I…” Kang Ning was stunned. She hadn’t expected her older sister to say such a thing, and her face immediately turned even redder.
Looking at the two girls next to her, the fourth sister Haode and the fifth sister Leshan, they were covering their mouths and secretly laughing.
Of course, Kang Ning naturally blamed Wei Tingyu for such an embarrassing scene! Her little hands clenched into two small pink fists under the table!
"Serving is serving! What's so great about it!" After a two-second silence, Kang Ning actually stood up with a whoosh, walked to her eldest sister Shouhua's side and said, "Elder sister, let me serve the Marquis breakfast!"
"You?" Before Shouhua could speak, Li Niangzi was stunned.
My third daughter, Kang Ning, isn't nearly as gentle and charming as Shou Hua! I was planning to give her some intensive training after today!
Right now, she's directly taking charge of serving her precious son-in-law breakfast? Let alone anyone else, even Lady Li herself wouldn't feel comfortable doing it!
However, Shouhua smiled and nodded, then looked at Wei Tingyu, since this matter still needed the Marquis's approval!
Wei Tingyu was also curious about what Kang Ning was up to, so he simply smiled and agreed.
Upon seeing this, Shouhua immediately stood up and bowed, then switched places with Kangning.
As soon as Corning sat down, he realized something was wrong, because everyone's eyes were now on him.
However, she already had a plan in mind. Without saying a word, she picked up Wei Tingyu's bowl and added a large mouthful of each of the various dishes on the table, piling it up to the brim before placing it in front of Wei Tingyu.
"Brother-in-law! Eat more!" Of course, Kang Ning's attitude was very good after this, and his face was beaming with joy.
Wei Tingyu was speechless. Was this girl treating him like a pig?
Lady Li was completely dumbfounded. Sure enough, her third daughter had only come to spite her!
Fortunately, Wei Tingyu's marriage to her eldest and second daughters has ended, so she probably won't be angry about this.
However, she quickly said, "Kang Ning is just impatient, but she has a good heart! Son-in-law, please don't take offense! Son-in-law, please don't take offense!"
"Huh?" Wei Tingyu was stunned. What kind of kindness was this? Why couldn't she feel it?
"Third Sister was worried that you had worked too hard last night!" And Li Niangzi, who dared to say anything, smiled and said, "So I added some extra dishes for you to replenish your strength!"
"Mother!" As soon as Li Niangzi finished speaking, Fu Hui's face turned bright red.
Shouhua felt a little embarrassed, since she and Wei Tingyu knew best why Wei Tingyu had worked so hard yesterday.
Not only did they understand it, they also experienced it firsthand!
Kang Ning was dumbfounded; she never dreamed that her mother would bring up this reason.
However, the younger sister serving food to her brother-in-law as a reward for his hard work in the bridal chamber last night... this sounds really awkward!
Thinking of this, Kang Ning slowly turned her head, and then she met Wei Tingyu's ambiguous smile.
"I'm not...it's this...not the one my mother said...it's just..." Kang Ning stammered, trying to explain, but it seemed like nothing she said sounded right.
After all, once this topic comes up, she, as the sister-in-law, will definitely be the object of ridicule in front of her brother-in-law, Wei Tingyu.
At this moment, Kang Ning really wanted to dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it. Of course, this time she couldn't blame Wei Tingyu!
After all, it was the eldest sister, Shouhua, who suggested changing seats, but it was herself who agreed to the change, and it was her mother who gave this awkward answer!
Wei Tingyu didn't utter a single word during this whole situation!
……
After finishing this awkward breakfast, Wei Tingyu naturally led Shouhua and Fuhui into the Marquis's carriage.
"Good son-in-law! Come visit sometime!" Lady Li, with her unmarried daughter, stood at the door to see off the Marquis's carriage as it departed.
However, before the carriage had completely disappeared from sight, she started shouting and waving at it in an exaggerated manner.
This scene naturally sparked a lot of discussion among the surrounding neighbors and diners!
"Good heavens! It's the Marquis's carriage! Has the owner of this Sifu Tea House really formed a marriage alliance with the Marquis's family?"
"Didn't you see that your daughter went back to their house with them? How could this be fake?"
"Two daughters married off at once?! That's quite a huge investment!"
"How about two daughters? If an ordinary merchant like us can be related to the Marquis of Jining by marriage, we'd be willing to send even twenty daughters there!"
"That's true! It's a pity my family has no daughters. Even if we did, the Marquis would definitely not be interested in them!"

Chapter 127 The Sisters of the Marquis's Mansion!
"The Li family still has three unmarried daughters! Do you think your son has a chance? What if he becomes related to the Marquis's family by marriage?"
"Forget about it! Lady Li's standards have definitely risen now! There's no way her remaining three daughters would marry into the families of the merchants on East Market Street!"
"That's right! It's best to avoid daydreaming!"
……
Hearing the chatter of the neighbors and diners around her, Li Niangzi was very pleased with herself. She swayed her hips and turned to go into the shop with her three daughters.
At this time, Sifu Tea House was still closed because it had not yet been fully renovated.
Even if others wanted to get close to Lady Li, they couldn't get into the teahouse.
Because Wei Tingyu had left four men and four women, a total of eight shadow guards, to protect the place, these people stood at the door and immediately dismissed a large number of people with various intentions.
Li Niangzi had heard all the discussions among the surrounding merchants, but she didn't take them to heart.
After all, those who dream of marrying into their family and thus becoming brothers-in-law with the Marquis of Jining are all toads trying to eat swan meat! It's a waste of their time to even glance at them!
Of course, Lady Li would never agree to such a thing! Besides, all five of her daughters had already been betrothed to Wei Tingyu, and she absolutely dared not and was unwilling to ruin such a good marriage!
However, in Panlou, which is right across from Sifu Tea House, a crack was found in the window on the second floor facing the street.
Chai An was standing there with a sinister look on his face, secretly peeking outside.
He naturally saw all of this!
Good heavens! Just yesterday morning, Fu Hui had dissolved her marriage with the Fan family and received the divorce papers, but that very evening she signed a concubine contract with the Marquis of Jining's mansion!
Then, early this morning, she accompanied Li Jia's eldest daughter, Shouhua, on Wei Tingyu's carriage back to the Marquis's residence.
Even the most dull-witted person, after learning the cause and effect, will surely be able to guess what really happened behind the scenes!
So it turns out his cousin Fan Lianghan was completely fooled by Wei Tingyu! Now he's even had his wife stolen away!
Chai An didn't really care much about the Fan family's affairs, but the problem was that he had been involved in them before!
Wei Tingyu's actions clearly show that he doesn't respect me!
