Chapter 209 Gu Ci's Happy Daily Life (Pei Dang accidentally enters!!!)



Chapter 209 Gu Ci's Happy Daily Life (Pei Dang accidentally enters!!!)

Because Gu Ci was leading troops outside last year, although he sent a gift back for Nian Xi's birthday, he actually missed it. So this time, he was determined to make up for it no matter what.

Nianxi is seventeen years old, not seventy years old.

She felt that grand birthdays belonged to old ladies, and she suppressed a little shame in her heart, because she was still a girl.

At that time, Gu Ci was holding her hand to keep it warm.

It's strange to say, in the past Nian Xi could distribute porridge outdoors in the cold winter months, but when Gu Ci came back, even her hands became delicate, as if their body temperature would automatically lower, causing Gu Ci to always hold her hands and cover them when he had nothing to do.

"It's good enough for the family to have a meal together. You are not allowed to cause trouble."

Thoughts are threatening.

There's no way. He's too high-profile.

As if he was afraid that others didn't know him.

Most recently, the wife of Marquis Pingyang celebrated her birthday, and Li brought Nianxi to attend.

Naturally, the unmarried women sat together at the table.

Someone started the conversation, saying that Cao Xitang's husband was very considerate. He was afraid that she would catch a cold while walking in the garden, so he asked the maid to send her cloak back.

Yes, Cao Xitang had just married, and was married to the eldest son of the Minister of Personnel. Now he was sitting among the married women, feeling a little uncomfortable, and he would glance at them from time to time.

The girls all laughed.

He blinked at Cao Xitang who looked at him again.

"They are childhood sweethearts. The relationship they have since they were young is naturally incomparable to others."

At this time, someone started to make a noise, "Speaking of thoughtfulness, we can't forget Guanjun Hou. There is no man in the capital who is more gentle than him."

"Nianxi is probably about to get married. Next time, she will be able to sit next to Sister Cao and accompany her."

Nianxi is used to being teased.

At this time, the more I talked to them, the fiercer they laughed.

Just keep silent and smile, and these little ladies will let her go.

But she didn't say anything, and someone wanted to say something.

Shu Muyun was sitting next to her. "Yes, Miss Wen, I wonder when you are getting married?"

Other people's jokes are always well-intentioned, but Shu Muyun's are obviously not, or not entirely.

Her expression was serious and inquiring, but upon closer inspection it seemed there was also a hint of disdain in it.

They are not in a relationship where they can talk about these topics.

In Shu Muyun's heart, she always felt that women like Wen Nianxi were beautiful but restless.

Just looking at the rumors about her and Prime Minister Pei in the capital, we know that this woman is quite fickle. If the champion does not return, she will probably give up her pipa.

Shu Muyun prides herself on being loyal and steadfast, and is quite prejudiced against Nian Xi.

Besides, she always believed that if you like someone, you should marry him. The champion marquis has not married yet, who knows if he is just playing with her because of her beauty?

Her words were actually quite offensive, and not only Nian Xi, but everyone present was stunned for a moment.

Nianxi is usually a gentle person who doesn't like to make things difficult for others, but she is not a pushover. Just as she was about to retort, Xingyue walked in.

"Mr. Gu said that the young lady's hands are cold, and the hand warmer should not be hot now, so he asked the servant to bring in a new pair."

Sure enough, Xingyue was holding a hand warmer carved with jadeite flowers and birds in her hand.

It was such a coincidence that this hand stove was given to me as a gift.

"Oh, why do you feel so sorry for me~"

Miss Liu on the side winked at Nianxi. Nianxi smiled and suddenly raised her hand to touch the back of Miss Liu's neck, saying to her coldly, "Then you should feel sorry for me."

They laughed, scolded and were all laughing.

Shu Muyun's matter was not mentioned. As for what she was thinking, she knew whether her hands were cold or not, so she must have skin affinity with him. She was really a restless person!

Nian Xi didn't really care.

But what happened next was a little out of control.

Nianxi brought two maids, Xingyue and Lanzhi, with her. Sometimes they were called out to deliver a message, and sometimes to get something. These two maids were ordered around so much that they never had a moment of rest.

When Lanzhi came in again, Miss Liu looked at Nianxi's face and smiled, "What's the reason this time?"

"The wine is cold during the banquet. Please don't drink too much, young lady, or you will get drunk."

The wife of Marquis Pingyang celebrated her birthday, and Gu Ci’s presence was even stronger than that of the old birthday star!

When it was time to return home after the banquet, Gu Ci had been waiting beside the carriage. He first helped Li onto the horse, and then turned around and attentively helped Nianxi.

Nian Xi originally wanted to be angry, but when she looked at that handsome face, she just couldn't get angry.

It's a disaster for a man to be too good-looking!

"What about your birthday? What a rare day." Gu Ci tried to fight for it.

"We celebrate it every year, it's not a big deal." Nian Xi forbade it, "You are not allowed to let everyone know about it."

That's too embarrassing.

"……All right."

"How about a donation? It's just outside the Liuji Hall?" Gu Ci still didn't give up.

"I'll tell you when I'm seventieth birthday."

"Then it will be your children and grandchildren's turn to take care of you. It won't be my turn."

"Gu Xiaoliu, are you childish?"

Now all Gu Ci needs to do is live in the Wen Mansion.

The reason why he got through so smoothly was that he changed sides quickly. He not only listed all his cousins, but also listed all the cousins ​​of his sisters who were of the right age.

Tell Wen Qingheng everything.

Li was very pleased.

Wen Qingheng was very angry.

He threatened to break off the friendship.

But no one knows what Gu Ci said in private, but within two days, the two of them were getting along again.

Nian Xi asked him curiously, and he declined, "I have already informed several sisters, and I can find an excuse to avoid it when the time comes."

Now Gu Ci was getting a little anxious, and asked Nianxi cryptically, "When will your elder brother get married?"

Nian Xi recalled the past, "It should be soon."

It is said that it was a chance encounter that moved the eldest brother, who had been innocent for twenty years, and caused ripples in his heart - the above comes from the words of her future sister-in-law.

Nianxi put down her chopsticks to indicate that she was full.

People say that a carefree mind makes the body fat. She always feels that her waist has gained an inch recently. It is probably because she keeps buying sweets in various ways, which makes her unable to control herself.

"Why do you eat so little?"

"The mutton hotpot smells a bit smelly today."

Gu Ci did not doubt it and said, "I'll ask the kitchen to make you some light porridge later."

Nianxi ate little, and Gu Ci was in his prime. He had been in the military for a long time, and his habits as a rich young man had long since disappeared, so he ate up everything, including Nianxi's portion.

It's not that the way he eats is ugly.

After all, his family background was there, so he ate elegantly and quickly, even drinking the soup in the pot.

Not a single grain of rice is left.

Nian Xi was stunned.

"Are you full? Do you want some more noodles?"

"That's not necessary. I'll have porridge with you later."

Nian Xi was deeply worried, "Gu Xiaoliu, you are such a big eater, will you become a fat man? I don't like my future husband to be fat, I like people who are self-disciplined."

Gu Ci was first intoxicated by the title of "future husband", but then he realized the seriousness of the matter.

"I practice martial arts every day. Don't worry, everything you like is here." He said righteously, "Touch it if you don't believe me."

He was wearing a long gown with a cross collar and side lapels today. Without saying anything, he took Nian Xi's hand and put it into his clothes.

It was a cold winter day and he was wearing thin clothes, but his chest was burning.

Nianxi wanted to pretend to be reserved, but when Gu Ci held her hand, her hand was bulging and ready to move. Her muscles were clearly defined. She really counted in her mind, "One, two... five, six."

Fortunately, they are all here.

When she took her hand out with a red face, he smiled politely and asked her in a low voice, "Are all the ones you like here?"

"I don't like it at all."

When people get along for a long time, it is inevitable that they will become close.

Gu Ci knew that Nian Xi liked handsome men with good figures.

Whenever you go to the battlefield, you will inevitably get injured. Gu Ci fought even harder, and there is still an unhealed wound on his back.

When Nian Xi found out, she felt pity for him and applied medicine to him personally.

It was very serious at first.

Gu Ci took off his coat, revealing many scars of varying sizes and depths on his body. One of them was a tender red color that had not yet fully healed.

"He was a general of Liang State, holding a Fang Tian Hua Ji. If I hadn't turned around quickly and dodged in time, the sword would have pierced my chest an inch deeper."

He spoke calmly, with no ups and downs in his tone, but it made Nian Xi feel distressed.

She often heard that the Gu family was a family of heroes, but she never knew that behind the heroes, there were wounds and pains. And the peaceful and happy life was also the result of countless soldiers like Gu Ci fighting with guns and swords.

There are also countless warriors who never returned and are forever buried in that hot land.

Like Gu Ci's second brother, like Xie Qiu, and like thousands of heroes of Jingguo.

Nian Xi's heart was filled with piety, and she placed a kiss on the wound.

Gu Ci suddenly shuddered all over.

Then, the atmosphere gradually became out of control.

The tall and muscular young man smiled silently as he looked at her in the mirror. His dark eyes were more intoxicating than the wine. His voice was not as clear as before. "Nian'er, why are you blushing?"

Are you blushing?

It's probably because the interior is too hot.

Nian Xi turned around to open the window, but the man grabbed her wrist.

He turned and faced her.

Nianxi saw more directly that the young man was tall and strong, with powerful muscles. However, on his perfect body, there were many scars of varying sizes, which made her feel embarrassed and distressed.

"Before you left, didn't you promise me that you would take good care of Xiaoliu? How did you leave him so injured?"

Gu Ci looked at her deeply with gentle eyes.

Nian Xi understood what he didn't say.

He wanted to come back earlier and be with her as soon as possible.

"Don't work so hard anymore, okay? I'm not happy."

Under the warm light, the girl's fair cheeks were flushed with pink, like the red of peach blossoms blooming in April, or like rouge falling on white jade, leaving a moving ripple.

She said she was unhappy, but she was happy to resign.

"Nian'er, I've made up my mind. Now that the war has ended and trade will be reopened in the North, wars will not be so frequent in the future. I plan to submit a memorial and stay in the capital. I will never leave again."

Nian Xi was slightly stunned and looked at him in disbelief, "What about the North Territory?"

This is the responsibility of the Zhenguo Mansion for generations.

"If the two countries can coexist peacefully, the North will only need ordinary garrisoning."

"Does the Duke of Zhen know?"

After a pause, he said, "Father knows."

Just furious, not agreeing yet.

Nian Xi was so shocked by his sudden news that she lost all her thoughts and didn't care that he was still shirtless. "Is it for me?"

Gu Ci's handsome face flushed slightly, "I don't want to go anymore."

"No more wars in the future?"

"No more fighting."

Nian Xi looked at him quietly for a long time before she said, "But you are born to be on the battlefield. You are more powerful and skilled in fighting than anyone else. Please excuse me, I also have something to tell you."

"My parents treat me like a treasure. My brother and I are their only children. They will be very sad if I leave them too far away."

He nodded politely to show his understanding.

"But I'm also worried about you. I'm afraid you won't care about your life."

She asked, "I know that you can't bring your family with you when you're on the march, but what about when you're stationed? Can women go with you when you're stationed? I've never seen the vastness of the northern border. The farthest I've been is from Nanjing to the capital. I don't know how magnificent the sunset over the long river and the lonely smoke in the desert are—"

Before she could finish her words, Gu Ci hugged her tightly.

So tight, so heavy.

The hoop hurt her.

She heard his suppressed and heavy breathing.

There is damp heat spreading.

Nian Xi felt sad and couldn't help but have tears in her eyes. She decided to forgive him for not taking the seriousness of the matter seriously.

"Okay, sister loves you."

He looked up and deeply kissed those clear almond eyes that seemed to be filled with moisture.

What is love?

Love is understanding, love is giving, and love is mutual fulfillment.

Maybe he was really afraid that Nianxi would worry, or maybe he just wanted to tease her. Anyway, after that time, Gu Ci would always assure her from time to time, "The ones I like are all here."

Gu Ci would eat at the Wen residence for almost two out of three meals a day, so he said this even more frequently.

At first he could say the whole thing, but gradually it became shorter and shorter:

"All are here."

"exist."

This made Wen Qingheng very confused.

"Are you guys exchanging secret codes?"

How could Nianxi tell her elder brother about this? She just nodded and said calmly, "I promised Nian'er, otherwise she won't let me eat."

Wen Qingheng: ...

His sister is amazing.

But family members should help each other, so Wen Qingheng said, "She doesn't allow you to eat it, so of course you didn't cook it well, so don't eat it."

Gu Ci smiled and said, "But if I don't eat, Nian'er will lose what she likes."

Wen Qingheng glanced at her with disdain, "Could it be possible that my sister likes fatty meat?"

Nian Xi couldn't help but burst out laughing.

It’s no wonder that Wen Qingheng has such a sharp tongue; it’s simply because the world is going downhill.

Once he saw these two people drinking tea in a small pavilion, so he walked over to chat with them. He vaguely heard Gu Ci say something about "watering the flowers". He thought they were talking about growing flowers, so he took a step forward, but stopped in time.

Because Gu Ci went on to say something like "Loving someone is like growing a flower, and Nian'er is a delicate flower that needs to be nurtured with care" and so on.

In short, it was so corny that Wen Qingheng's face turned red when he heard it.

The world is going downhill. The world is going downhill.

Such a good general actually compared himself to cow dung.

This is unheard of and unbelievable!

Therefore, fearing that Gu Ci would say something unpalatable again, Wen Qingheng blocked his mouth in time.

Then, successfully, he ate too much of himself.

After coming out of the restaurant, Gu Ci helped Nian Xi onto the carriage, and Wen Qingheng waved to the two of them, "It's a bit difficult, I'll go for a while, you guys go first."

The two of them were quick to accept the advice.

Because there were not many pens, ink and paper left in Caotang Academy, the two of them went to Shuzhai on the way. They were delayed on the road for a while, and when they were going back, they happened to see Wen Qingheng lying on the side of the road.

A woman in red was waving a horsewhip and looking at him with disdain.

Gu Ci stepped forward and helped the man up.

Seeing that her brother was being bullied, especially by a woman, Nian Xi also got off the carriage.

Just as he was about to ask for an explanation, he froze in place when he saw the woman's face clearly.

It turns out that the encounter between my brother and sister-in-law is so unique.

Wen Qingheng and the woman were in a stalemate.

I turned around and saw Nian'er smiling with inexplicable excitement.

He took two steps back with an idea in mind, but his mind became extremely active.

It seems that his spring is coming too.
