Qin Qingyao never thought that she would faint from anger and transmigrate after reading a novel about a concubine daughter who rose to become an empress, all because of the second male lead's ...
Dugu Yu was stunned for a moment, then he uttered an almost inaudible "hmm", walked in front of Qin Qingyao, bent his legs slightly, and just as he was about to bend down, the person behind him had already jumped up.
I got a husband who is too tall, and my jumping ability is getting better day by day.
Qin Qingyao hugged Dugu Yu's neck and lay on his shoulder, her face pressed tightly against his cheek. She was no longer chattering as usual and was as quiet as if she was asleep.
Dugu Yu didn't say anything either. The only sound in his ears was Qin Qingyao's regular breathing.
Qin Qingyao's small body was basically negligible to him, and it was no problem for him to climb walls and fly over rooftops with her on his back.
But Dugu Yu unconsciously slowed down his pace, shortened his steps, and strolled leisurely on the street.
After walking for a while, Qin Qingyao suddenly asked, "Hubby, does your leg hurt?"
Dugu Yu, "It doesn't hurt, I'm fine now."
Qin Qingyao turned her head and kissed him on the cheek. Dugu Yu's blood pressure instantly soared and his ears turned red.
Even though it's pitch black now and there aren't many people on the street, it's still in public after all. How can we be so affectionate like this? It's so embarrassing.
Qin Qingyao was so busy hugging Dugu Yu's neck and rubbing it that she didn't notice the smile on Dugu Yu's face that was three parts shyness and seven parts sweetness. It was really her loss!
"Husband~"
"Um?"
"It's so kind of you!"
Dugu Yu pursed his lips and said nothing, carefully recalling the time they had spent together since Qin Qingyao married him for the past six months.
Apart from the fact that he never actually abused her, he was not a good husband at all.
Even if he had any good qualities, he wouldn't have made the old lady sick, and wouldn't have been so angry that the Qin family asked him to write a letter of divorce.
The further he looked, the more he seemed like a bunch of scoundrels. He had no idea what the standards of a good husband Qin Qingyao was talking about. It seemed that no matter how he treated her, she would always be satisfied.
As long as he was a little bit nice to her, she would immediately jump up and down with joy as if she had obtained the whole world.
Logically speaking, shouldn't a girl like Qin Qingyao, who comes from a wealthy family and is doted on, be picky, willful and difficult to serve?
Why is she so special?
It is particularly easy to raise.
This was the first time that Dugu Yu felt that the Wuling Palace and the Qin Palace were so close. He had only taken a few steps when he arrived home.
When the people in the palace saw that the prince had carried the princess back on his back, they were overjoyed as if they had celebrated the New Year in advance, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Dugu Yu felt very unhappy when he saw the servants who looked like they were just scared for nothing and were thankful that the sky was clearing up after the rain. Why do you all think that the princess will not come back with me?
You have too little confidence in him. How can he be that bad?
Although Dugu Yu repeatedly assured him that his knee was fine, Qin Qingyao still insisted on applying a blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing ointment to him and rubbed it carefully for a long time.
Lying on the bed, Dugu Yu finally had time to confess yesterday's misunderstanding to Qin Qingyao.
Although he had already explained it to Minister Qin, he still wanted to hear Qin Qingyao forgive him in person, to let her know that he really didn't mean it and really didn't want to hurt her.
Regarding the chance encounter with Lin Xiafeng, Qin Qingyao could only say that the power of the plot was truly immense.
But that cloak was actually bought for her?
And it has been at home for more than a month, and it has not been given to her, so it finally fell into Lin Xiafeng's hands?
This explanation made Qin Qingyao more upset than not explaining at all. Her husband was too thin-skinned. He was too embarrassed to even give her a gift?
She finally understood why Dugu Yu in the original novel remained a virgin until the end. If he had to seduce a wife to come home by himself, it would be impossible for him to do so with his weird personality.
Even those who come to him will be scared away by his papaya face!
"Husband, can you promise me one thing?"
"What?"
"From now on, you are not allowed to give gifts to other women, any female creatures! If it is necessary to exchange favors, it should be given by me, the mistress of the palace!"
"If you give it to her, it's impossible for others not to have wild thoughts. Even if you don't care, you have to consider the girl's reputation, don't you think?"
"I don't mind you making more friends, but if you're talking to unmarried women in the boudoir, or if you're talking to other girls, even if you have a clear conscience, it won't sound good if you tell others about it."
"There aren't that many people in this world who are upright and don't fear their shadows being crooked, because whether your shadow is crooked or not has nothing to do with whether you stand upright or not, it only has to do with the light and the eyes of others!"
Dugu Yu nodded, "Yeah."
In fact, he was not very good at interacting with other people, so naturally he had no objection to Qin Qingyao's proposal.
What's more, he didn't seem to have given gifts to any girls. In total, apart from Qin Qingyao, there were only Lin Xiafeng and Princess Anli.
But among these three people, the gift he gave to Qin Qingyao was the least valuable, the most insignificant, and even completely negligible...
Dugu Yu was in the middle of self-reflection, but Qin Qingyao looked at him with sparkling eyes, overjoyed. "You really agree? Then let's make a pinky promise!"
She stretched out a hand from under the quilt, raised her little finger, and looked at Dugu Yu expectantly.
Dugu Yu, "Hook? What does that mean?"
"It's a promise. Once you make a pinky promise, you have to keep it. No changes are allowed for a hundred years!"
A promise? Dugu Yu frowned slightly, his mind filled with the image of Qin Qingyao and Murong Ce hooking their little fingers together.
He had taken her to practice with Murong Ce, but this damn girl blatantly abandoned him and took Murong Ce to a private room to talk in private, and they even made a pinky promise!
What kind of unchanging agreement does she and Murong Ce need to make that will last for a hundred years?
Damn, I'm angry!
Qin Qingyao pouted, thinking Dugu Yu didn't want to make a pinky promise with her. Was he just being perfunctory when he agreed to it? What good things did he plan to give Lin Xiafeng?
Dugu Yu was still immersed in his memories and was filled with jealousy. If he could travel through time, he would have rushed over and broken Murong Ce's little finger.
Then Qin Qingyao retracted her hand into the quilt, and deftly slipped into Dugu Yu's clothes and hooked his little brother.
As he swayed, he kept muttering, "We'll make a promise and stick to it for a hundred years!"
Dugu Yu's cheeks couldn't stop twitching. "Then you might need two hands to hook it."
Qin Qingyao, "Okay!"
Dugu Yu: “…”
…
Dugu Yu took a nap during the day, and Qin Qingyao also slept all day, so neither of them was sleepy at night. Under the deliberate initiative of a shameless person, Dugu Yu discovered a new world.
Qin Qingyao brought disaster upon herself. She thought that Dugu Yu was too thin-skinned to let go, and that this was her home turf. As a result, she taught her apprentice so much that the master was exhausted to death, and the result was that he was out of breath and couldn't even cry for mercy. It is really hard to describe in words.
She found that she seemed to have misunderstood Dugu Yu's thick skin, just like Dugu Yu had a deep misunderstanding of the words "immediately" and "the last time".
The next day, before dawn, Dugu Yu went out to court in high spirits.
When I arrived at the court, I heard that General Yang and Prime Minister Lin had a quarrel in the court yesterday and were punished to reflect on their mistakes at home.
Dugu Yu expressed deep regret. The emperor's punishment was really unreasonable. After all, everything was caused by him. He should be the one to reflect on his mistakes behind closed doors!
It doesn't matter if he is fined for a few more days. He promises to reflect on himself and never leave the house!
After the three absent people sincerely apologized to the emperor, the emperor symbolically said a few words to smooth things over, and did not hold them accountable.
After all, the end of the year is approaching and the court is busy. A prime minister and a general have already been sent home. If Dugu Yu and Qin Shangshu are sent home, who will do the work?
After leaving the court, Dugu Yu took the initiative to greet Minister Qin. The word "Dad" made everyone's jaw drop. Even Minister Qin's face turned red, and he finally felt a little embarrassed.
After leaving the palace, Dugu Yu walked briskly on the way home. However, when he passed by a wonton stall, he saw from a distance a 'tablet' erected on a table with the words "Prince Wu Ling and his wife are seated here" written on it!
Dugu Yu thought of the last time he brought Qin Qingyao to eat wontons. After eating, Qin Qingyao happily pulled his hand and swung it all over the place, as if she was afraid that others would not see their fingers holding hands.
So I turned a corner and went to the wonton stand. "Can I take your wontons to go?"
The family of four selling wontons were so frightened by the sudden appearance of the giant Buddha that they were practically speechless. Before they could react, Dugu Yu added, "The princess loves it."
It was the old woman who reacted first, and she was very good at business. "Of course, of course. Your Highness, please wait a moment!"
She filled a bowl directly, then took out their family's lunch box, filled it up and handed it to Dugu Yu.
With such thoughtful service, Dugu Yu would definitely not be stingy. He left a silver ingot, took the small bamboo food box and ran home.
As soon as he left, the diners at the wonton stall started gossiping among themselves. These two people from Prince Wu Ling's Mansion were really weird. Is their relationship good or bad? Is there any definite news?
"Didn't they say that the prince likes Princess Anli?"
"What Princess Anli? She's clearly the Sixth Miss of the Lin family. I saw with my own eyes the other day on the street that the prince helped Sixth Miss Lin into the carriage!"
"You guys just talk nonsense. If Prince Wu Ling didn't like the princess, why would he kneel at the gate of the Qin family all morning?"
"Why did I hear that you knelt all night?"
"You guys are just making wild guesses. Who said the prince knelt at the gate of the Qin Mansion just for the princess?"
"If it's not for the princess, what is it for? That's Prince Wu Ling. The emperor never made him kneel for a whole night!"
"So what if he kneels all night? That doesn't mean he has lost interest in Miss Lin Liu and Princess An Li! Haha, man!"
…
The old woman at the stall looked at Dugu Yu's quickly receding back, smiled with satisfaction, and waved a white rag to wipe the "tablet" until it was shiny.
