"Second Young Master's Madam, why are you here?" Mrs. Liu wiped her mouth with her sleeve and said with a flattering smile.
"Let me see how the second young master's favorite sour bamboo shoot and duck soup is."
"Simmer it on the stove over low heat. It's guaranteed to taste like what the Second Young Master likes." Mrs. Liu took a few quick steps and pointed to the small red clay stove next to her.
Su Qi nodded, her slender hands stroking the golden hairpin on her head. Her eyes were filled with the pride of her husband's return. "Be more alert when cooking, and don't be lazy. The lunch should be generous in portion and beautifully presented."
Su Qi said a few perfunctory words and left.
Mrs. Liu was bewildered.
Every meal in the mansion is served with whole fish and ducks, so how could there be no food?
Shake your head.
The second young master's wife is a little bit mentally unstable.
On the way out, Su Qi greedily took in the wooden barrel at the kitchen door that contained several lively fish. She even took in the large water tank in the corner.
I haven’t reached the gate of Qingfengyuan yet.
Then I saw two chubby and round little guys rushing towards me like little cannonballs.
Following behind them were the wet nurse and maids who served Dabao and Erbao.
"Mom, I saw Dad."
"Daddy doesn't look the same as in the portrait."
"Daddy looks like me."
"Mom, Daddy looks like big brother. Bao looks like mommy." The two little guys hugged Su Qi's legs, one on the left and one on the right.
Su Qi squatted down.
The two little guys don't look alike. Obviously one looks more like the original body, and the other looks more like Gu Beiheng.
With a pair of bright big eyes and a small bun on her head, she reported to Su Qi with a carefree smile the scene of her encounter with Gu Beiheng at the city gate.
Dabao is rather honest, but his occasional rolling eyes show that he is quite clever.
Erbao almost put on his face the expression that I am the smartest person in the world.
Su Qi held the two little guys in her arms, one on each side. It was pitiful that such adorable human cubs were about to leave this world this winter.
Or leave amid the calculations of loved ones.
In her previous life, she was single and had no children, but she particularly liked other people's children.
Every time I see cute little babies in online articles, I want to find a nice sack to catch them.
No need for sacks now.
I was given two cute babies at once, and I didn’t have to endure the pain of childbirth.
Just say it’s a surprise or not?
"Dabao, Erbao. Don't run around outside this afternoon. Rest well in the yard, okay?" Su Qi lowered her voice and tried to look gentle.
"I understand. Mom, we will stay at home with mom and dad." Erbao said with a cunning smile.
Dabao rolled his eyes.
She curled her lips and said, "That will affect the relationship between my parents."
Su Qi: ...What do you know, you naughty kid?
Erbao was confused at first, then he cried out "Oh" and suddenly understood. "Mom and Dad are going to give us a brother or sister."
"Where did you learn all this nonsense? In the study this afternoon, copy the big characters that the teacher taught me three times."
Su Qi frowned.
You can’t follow your child’s temperament in the future.
They must start learning and at the same time understand the cruel reality of selfishness in the world.
"Oh..." The two little guys drooped their brows and looked listless. "Do you really want to write?" They pouted and discussed.
Su Qi deliberately put on a stern face and said, "I have to write it."
Dabao and Erbao knew there was no room for negotiation. Dejected, they took Xiaopang's hand and walked into the yard.
Su Qi shook her head and chuckled. Just as she was about to go in, she heard the servant from the front yard coming over.
"Greetings to the Second Young Master's wife. The Second Young Master is in the main courtyard right now. He will be back soon. Let me pass the message first." A servant in charge of Gu Beiheng's study in the front yard saluted.
Su Qi nodded and asked casually:
"Is the Second Young Master dining in the main courtyard?"
The servant's eyes dropped to the tip of his toes. "It is said that the old man is not feeling well, so he will not dine in the main courtyard today. Everyone should go back to their own courtyard to eat."
Su Qi was surprised. Didn't the old man get promoted or make money because he had a heart attack?
It’s just this mind and nature.
He can only be a military general who helps you conquer the world.
It is best to die as soon as you achieve success or fame. Otherwise, it is easy to lose all the achievements.
Unfortunately, his lifespan is a bit long, which may ruin his descendants.
Not only will his son, but also his grandson and even his great-grandsons like Dabao and Erbao will be implicated.
"I understand. Go on down."
Su Qi had no idea how to get along with Gu Beiheng?
I had to find a way to reveal some information to him. As for the space and her origins, I naturally didn't dare to tell them.
If I'm mistaken for a thousand-year-old monster or a ten-thousand-year-old goblin, and then I cast a spell to offer sacrifices to the heavens, I'll be in big trouble.
With something on his mind, Su Qi frowned and walked to the door of the small kitchen in Qingfengyuan, and gave a few instructions to Donghe, who was in charge of the meals.
Go into the storage room behind the kitchen.
All the food, pots, pans, and charcoal and other miscellaneous items were put into the space.
Then I returned to the house, thinking of finding a chance to go shopping next door in the evening.
Not long after Su Qi returned to the house, a shadowy figure strode in from the doorway.
You can tell who is coming without even looking.
Su Qi turned around and looked at Gu Beiheng seriously with her peach blossom eyes.
Wearing a military uniform and having bronze skin.
There were cold stars in Heijinshi's eyes.
Cold and refreshing.
majesty.
With the absolute pressure of a superior.
Gu Beiheng's figure and appearance are at the top level in modern times.
In modern times, Su Qi is a face-chaser and fans of celebrities only because of their looks.
Her catchphrase:
As long as your face is there, the house will be there; if your face collapses, the house will collapse.
At this moment, she was looking at Gu Beiheng unscrupulously with her soul eyes that had seen countless stars.
Su Qi, who had been single for thirty-one years, found it difficult to look away from this beautiful man. In her mind, she imagined his noble appearance and the image of him being devoured in the mountains.
There was mist in his eyes.
Seeing Su Qi looking at him calmly, Gu Beiheng put away his coldness.
Take a step forward.
Standing in front of Su Qi.
"Qiqi, I'm sorry for making you suffer these past few years."
The day after his marriage, he joined the army and headed for the northwest battlefield.
To Su Qi, he was not a good husband.
But he was a soldier, and a commander in chief, so he naturally knew that military orders were as important as mountains.
Su Qi's eyes were covered with a mist, the way she always looked at a particularly good-looking celebrity. Just like now, her watery, peach-shaped eyes just stared at Gu Beiheng without moving.
Gu Beiheng felt a tightness in his heart when he saw this.
This woman won’t cry, right?
He had actually forgotten what Su Qi looked like. He had gotten a little tipsy on their wedding night and didn't remember much about it. Besides, he was summoned away by imperial decree before dawn the next day.
Four years have passed in a flash.
Su Qi felt uneasy when she saw his dull face, thinking that his house would be confiscated and he would be exiled tomorrow.
She made up her mind to pull this man to her side.
If this man doesn't believe it.
She took her two children to eat and drink their fill, and when she saw that he was so skinny from hunger, she fed him delicious food to show him off.
Su Qi pinched herself hard a few times.
Oops, that was too harsh.
Tears of pain gathered in my eyes.
The golden bead fell from her left eye. Su Qi shook her head and sobbed softly:
"Why did you come back? You know I've been plagued by nightmares every night these days. The dreams are too real. I don't know who to tell."
Su Qi feinted his body in real time.
Gu Beiheng frowned, not knowing where to put his hands.
Seeing her staggering and falling, he stepped forward, lifted Su Qi up and placed her on a chair.
Su Qi felt very upset.
Bro, can you please stop talking about this?
Gu Beiheng asked in a humming voice: "What kind of nightmare was it? What scared you?"
"Will you listen to me?"
Gu Beiheng nodded slightly. He didn't know how to get along with women. He wasn't as casual as he was with those soldiers.
Su Qi gestured for him to close the door.
Gu Beiheng walked over and told his trusted confidant Ying Liu to guard the door and not let anyone come to disturb him.
Ying Liu, who was standing straight at the door, rolled his eyes a few times.
I wondered, Master, after being a vegetarian for several years, is he so impatient to come back? He didn't even care that the young master was still waiting for dinner.
It turns out that after looking at the cold master, meeting the second young master's wife was like this.
Yingliu's gossipy eyes betrayed him.
When Gu Beiheng's cold gaze swept over her, she immediately stared at her toes without blinking.
Don't dare to move.
"As you command."
Gu Beiheng closed the door and returned to the table to sit down. He raised his hand and asked Su Qi to sit down as well.
Su Qi half-sat on the chair and started her performance of watching a horror movie.
He recounted his dream of seeing the Duke's mansion being confiscated and exiled, and the two children tragically dying on the way, adding the feeling of helplessness and helplessness at the two children's deaths.
After saying that, she secretly glanced at Gu Beiheng.
Gu Beiheng felt a chill run down his spine, unable to discern what he meant. This was also a risky move, considering the ancients believed in the emperor's favor.
But the man's face remained cold as usual, and it was hard to tell whether he believed it or not.
Gu Beiheng clenched his fists, and his heart was already filled with horror at what Su Qi said.
What Su Qi said overlapped with some of the scenes he had dreamed about two days ago.
What if it's a coincidence?
It's too much of a coincidence.
