That's an Emperor, Plain and Simple, Okay?

She stormed into Zhou Wanwan's room, angrily demanding, "Zhou Wanwan, who told you to bring my bed here?"

Zhou Wanwan scratched her head and said:

"Since you invited us to stay for a few days, you can't expect us to sleep on the floor, can you?"

Oh, and we've brought over the other people's beds too.

Old Madam Zhou said angrily, "Zhou Fusheng, aren't you going to do anything about this? Look at what your daughter has done! Why did she pull my bed over here?"

Zhou Fusheng remained silent; what could he possibly do? Was Zhou Wanwan someone he could control?

Just kidding, he really wanted to drag Old Madam Zhou to their mountain stronghold to see what Zhou Wanwan's status was there.

That's a perfect emperor, okay?

Although the officials treated him with great respect, they never bowed to him.

But when they saw Zhou Wanwan, they immediately knelt down. Who are those people?

They were all high-ranking officials of the imperial court, many of them holding the first or second rank.

Even though Zhou Fusheng's legs trembled when he saw them, Zhou Wanwan was never afraid.

He said calmly, "Mother, we do need a bed, don't we?"

"You can say you want a bed, right? Do you think I won't give you one? Do you think I'm such an unreasonable person?" Old Madam Zhou was furious.

Zhou Wanwan quickly said, "It's okay, it's not too late to tell! We're sleepy, we need to go to sleep."

When the eldest aunt returned to the room, she found that her bed was gone, and so was the second aunt's bed.

They rushed over too, and Zhou Wanwan chuckled:

"I'm sorry! It's not enough! I have four older brothers, my parents, and myself, so we're still short a few beds!"

Grandma, could you please add a few more beds for us? We have a whole bunch of maids and servants.

Old Madam Zhou said angrily, "I don't even have a bed of my own! Where am I supposed to add a bed for you? You're dreaming! Figure it out yourself!"

After saying that, Zhang Guilan turned and left, cursing, "You even moved my bed away, where am I supposed to sleep? Zhou Wanwan, I think you're asking for trouble again, give my bed back right now."

Zhou Wanwan looked at Zhang Guilan and said, "You took my gold bracelet, so what's wrong with lending me this bed?"

Zhang Guilan coughed, feeling guilty, and said, "Isn't this a separate matter? Besides, I was just keeping this gold bracelet safe for you."

Zhou Wanwan smiled faintly and said, "Keep it safe! You'd better take good care of it."

Zhang Guilan ran off immediately. Seeing this, her second aunt, Zhao Zhaodi, smiled gently and said, "I just came to take a look. I don't need a bed. If you need a blanket, I can bring it over."

Zhou Wanwan waved her hand and said, "No need, thank you."

She simply couldn't get used to sleeping in these beds; now she truly understood what it meant to go from luxury to frugality.

The Old Scholar Tree simply handed these beds over to the servants and maids.

He had people move Zhou Wanwan's and the others' beds down from the mountain.

Zhou Wanwan lay on her bed and said:

"This bed frame is made of top-quality agarwood, and it has a faint, elegant woody fragrance. I've gotten used to it every day, and I really can't sleep without this bed."

The quilt is a top-quality goose down and silk quilt; it's so light and soft, so comfortable!

The Old Scholar Tree chuckled and said, "Wanwan, they're having a meeting next door! They're talking about our jewelry."

Zhou Wanwan chuckled and said, "The craftsmen on our mountain should have finished making the fake jewelry, right? Once they're done, we can exchange the fake jewelry for the real jewelry."

Okay, I understand.

The next morning, the Old Scholar Tree said, "The matter has been settled; I've retrieved the jewelry."

Zhou Wanwan nodded and said:

"That's good, it's so great to be in Zhou Family Village!"

Oh right, today is my cousin and his wife's wedding day, I have to go check it out.

I'm curious what kind of person could possibly be interested in Zhou Qingzhou. It's not that I'm being cynical, but does Zhou Qingzhou even deserve to marry the daughter of the prefect?

The Old Scholar Tree, with a gossipy look on his face, said:

"Didn't that couple just celebrate their wedding night last night?"

The woman didn't bleed, and the two of them started arguing about it.

Fang Ting was a formidable character; she gave Zhou Qingzhou a thorough dressing-down.

"Wow! There's something really shocking! Uncle Scholar Tree, you've gone too far! Why didn't you wake me up?"

The Old Scholar Tree laughed heartily, "I just didn't want to disturb you because you were sleeping so soundly!"

Zhou Wanwan changed into a light yellow outfit, looked at herself in the mirror, and said, "So pretty."

I'm not exaggerating, it really is beautiful.

Zhou Wanwan walked into the main hall, where everyone had already arrived, staring at each other in bewilderment!

Zhou Wanwan smiled and said, "Everyone got up quite early! What about the prefect's eldest daughter?"

Old Madam Zhou's face darkened, and Huihui's face didn't look good either. What kind of new bride makes everyone wait on her first day at her new home?

Zhou Wanwan's maid, worried that she was hungry, brought her breakfast directly.

Zhou Wanwan buried herself in her food as soon as she sat down.

She didn't eat her fill at all at the meal in Zhou Family Village yesterday.

Her breakfast consisted of a bowl of clear-broth bird's nest soup, a bowl of eel noodles, a plate of stir-fried tender bamboo shoots, and a plate of honey-glazed pickled radishes—sweet, sour, and crunchy, a perfect accompaniment to the noodles.

Zhang Guilan's mouth was practically watering as she looked at him. "Wanwan! It's not good to eat alone."

Zhou Wanwan said while eating:

"Hmm... it's really not good. Father, Mother, Brother, do you want to eat?"

I don't know when that will be! You guys eat first!

Zhou Fusheng was really hungry, and Zhou Wanwan's maid quickly served them eel noodles and some side dishes.

Everyone watched as this family ate alone. Old Madam Zhou coughed and said:

"Fourth brother, what do you mean by this?"

"Mom and Dad haven't eaten yet! You're all eating so happily."

Zhou Wanwan looked at them and said:

Why aren't you eating? Don't you want to eat?

We only made our own breakfast, so I suppose you didn't make breakfast for us either?

Old Madam Zhou snorted coldly and said:

We're not like you, who don't know the rules!

The new bride will be serving tea soon. How can you behave like this?

They thought we looked down on the prefect's family!

Zhou Wanwan ignored her. After eating and drinking her fill, the maid simply cleared away all the bowls and chopsticks.

Zhou Wanwan sipped her milk tea and said, "This tastes really good."

Zhou Mei swallowed hard and asked, "Wanwan, what are you drinking?"

Zhou Wanwan smiled and said, "Milk tea! It tastes pretty good."

She swallowed hard and asked, "I've never had this before. Is it good?"

Zhou Wanwan nodded and said, "It's super delicious! You can ask the servants at home to make it! It's very simple."

Zhou Mei rolled her eyes and said, "Can't you just make me something to drink?"

"Hehe, that's all." Zhou Wanwan wasn't going to put up with her.

After drinking milk tea for a while, the maids brought out some snacks, all of which were specially prepared.

A plate of beef jerky, a plate of pork jerky, a dish of amber walnuts...
