Yun Xiangye, while boating on a spring day, lost her footing and fell into the lake. She was rescued by Gu Yan, a wealthy young master who was recuperating in Jiangnan.
To repay his great kin...
Gu Jingyu looked at Zhao Rui and chuckled, "Cousin Rui, you really came to my mother to propose marriage?"
Zhao Rui asked, "Why can't we propose marriage?"
Gu Jingyu said, "My grandmother once said that cousins can't get married."
"besides……"
Xie Zhixuan asked, "Cousin? Where did you get a cousin who looks like your brother?"
Gu Jingyu suppressed her smile and said, "Even though cousins can get married, you two men can't get married. That tall and beautiful girl just now is my brother Gu Yan."
Zhao Rui looked at Gu Jingyu as if struck by lightning, "What? Gu Yan? He is Gu Yan? How is that possible? He even has pierced ears!"
Gu Jingyu smiled and said, "Why can't my brother get his ears pierced?"
"We are given our bodies and hair by our parents. How dare my aunt, uncle, and cousin be so unfilial as to pierce their ears!"
Zhao Rui just felt extremely ashamed.
I could never imagine that person would be Gu Yan...
"Why is Gu Yan pretending to be a girl?"
At this moment, Zhao Rui just wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Gu Jingyu smiled and said, "This is how colorful clothes entertain your wife."
Zhao Rui: “…”

It was dusk when the carriage arrived at the embroidery workshop. Perhaps because she had walked half of Zhuque Street today, Nuonuo was already drowsy during dinner.
After Gu Yan carried Nuonuo to the small couch and coaxed her to sleep, Yun Xiangye covered Nuonuo with a thin quilt and patted her gently.
Yun Xiangye raised her eyes and looked at Gu Yan, who was still wearing a snow-green dress, and smiled softly. Seeing Yun Xiangye's smile, Gu Yan took her in his arms and walked into the inner room.
Gu Yan pressed Yun Xiangye against the screen and whispered, "You just promised Nuonuo that you would give birth to a sister."
Yun Xiangye looked at Gu Yan's appearance and thought that it would be nice to have another daughter and son who looked like Gu Yan.
He may not be a good father or a good husband, but he is definitely a good seed.
Seeing that Yun Xiangye didn't refuse, Gu Yan hooked his hand through her hair, put his arm around her and carried her to the bed, then slowly lowered the bed curtains...
The summer evening breeze came in through the windows that had never been closed, blowing the gauze curtains gently.
