Chapter 382 Go Home and Make Trouble Again
In fact, Dugu Yu did not look down on girls' IQ, but the reality was that girls could get married at the age of fifteen, and if they were still not married at the age of eighteen, they would be criticized.
Before, women had to study "Women's Virtues", "Women's Precepts" and "Women's Training" at home, remember the Three Obediences and Four Virtues, learn how to support their husbands and raise their children, learn needlework, and even learn how to manage the household and do accounting.
It is already remarkable if you can learn all these before getting married. How can you have time to read books of sages?
Even if her enlightened parents support her daughter's education, she can just study at home. Why send her to an all-male academy? Is her reputation still worth it? Will she even get married in the future?
However, Dugu Yu just thought about these words casually and did not say them out loud.
Because he felt that if he really said these words to Qin Qingyao, he might have to stay alone in his empty room again tonight.
Qin Qingyao was actually quite eager to write some of the management methods of modern schools into the mountain rules, but in the end it was just a thought.
This academy belongs to her second brother. She believes that he has his own ideas about how to run it. If she interferes too much, it might mess things up.
Dugu Yu took her on a tour of the academy. The academy was located on the mountainside and was not confined to one courtyard. There were many buildings separated from the main courtyard and scattered in the mountain stream.
Qin Qingyao was walking around and suddenly didn't want to leave anymore. "The environment on the mountain is really nice. It would be great if we could live there too."
"You can live anywhere you want, but not in Yuelu Mountain. Sorry."
Qin Qingyao shrugged indifferently, "I know, I don't want to live here, and I don't like studying."
Since Dugu Yu has decided to leave the court, he must leave completely. Even if it is the Qin family, he cannot get too close. The emperor's bottom line cannot withstand temptation.
Now that Ling Jingxuan has just ascended the throne, his foundation is not yet stable and he needs to care about the views of the people and the opinions of the officials. He also needs to establish himself as a wise monarch who is fair in rewards and punishments and has a benevolent heart.
Therefore, he would respect and treat well those who had made contributions, and he was especially kind to the Qin family.
But who knows how long this kindness can last?
Since ancient times, only those who were too successful would bring about death. It has never been heard that one could make the emperor indulge his subjects by relying on one's favor to the emperor.
After all, for the emperor, the loyalty of his subjects is his duty. Not to mention that Qin Yuefeng just saved him and helped him, even if Qin Yuefeng died for him, it was Qin Yuefeng's duty and it should be Qin Yuefeng's honor.
Therefore, there is absolutely no such thing as a minister repaying the emperor's kindness.
Therefore, the Qin family should not be complacent and challenge Ling Jingyu's tolerance limit. Instead, they should act low-key and reduce their presence, so that Ling Jingxuan can see their loyalty and submission.
Gaining the trust of a superior is ten thousand times safer than gaining his gratitude.
At lunch time, Dugu Yu took Qin Qingyao to an independent small courtyard in the mountain stream. As soon as they entered, they saw several people already waiting there.
"Dad! Mom!"
Qin Qingyao ran towards her parents excitedly. The Qin couple hadn't seen their daughter for more than four months. Seeing her running and jumping well and looking so healthy, they were relieved and gave Dugu Yu a look of gratitude.
Dugu Yu nodded and did not interrupt them from reminiscing about the past. He thought Qin Qingyao would have a lot to say to her parents, so he went to find Qin Yuelu himself.
Qin Qingyao didn't expect to see her parents again so soon. After being excited, her eyes turned red, and she was scolded by her father.
"Look at what you look like. Why are you crying? You are already married daughters. Your two sisters are not like you. They go back to their parents' home every few days. You cry after not seeing them for such a short time."
Qin Qingyao stuck out her tongue at her father. "Why are you being so mean? Anyway, I'm going to travel around the world with the prince soon. I might not come back for ten or eight years. You'll cry your heart out!"
"You better get out of here right now!"
Mrs. Qin rolled her eyes helplessly. "What are you two doing? Can't you just talk it out nicely?"
Everyone had lunch together. No one mentioned anything unhappy during the meal, but Mrs. Qin still secretly wiped away tears several times.
However, the Qin family's father and son were very sober and kept persuading, "Since you want to leave, leave quickly while the emperor is still busy and has no time to ask questions."
"No one knows if he'll need you again someday, or if he'll be worried and won't let you go. By then it'll be too late."
The court needed Dugu Yu simply because it needed him to charge into battle. But even if it didn't need him, it would still be worrying to release a battlefield genius like Dugu Yu.
They stayed on the mountain for one night. Early the next morning, Qin Qingyao was reluctantly driven down the mountain by her parents. On horseback, Qin Qingyao curled up in Dugu Yu's arms, feeling a little sad, but more of the joy of having her long-cherished wish fulfilled.
"Thank you, honey. Thank you for arranging all this."
Dugu Yu seemed to just snort lightly. Qin Qingyao turned around, raised her head and bit his chin.
Dugu Yu wrapped the cloak that Qin Qingyao had loosened tightly around him, covering Qin Qingyao with only half of her head exposed. "Stop making trouble."
Qin Qingyao deliberately let go of his chin as if to find fault, and then bit his Adam's apple.
Dugu Yu, "Let's go home and make trouble later."
Qin Qingyao, "..."
After returning home, Qin Qingyao didn't even bother to bother Dugu Yu because the camellia in their house had finally bloomed.
The two pink flowers were as big as Qin Qingyao's palms, with a total of six layers of petals, tightly fitted together, and looked like they were arranged neatly according to the most rigorous mathematical formula.
"Wow, honey, look at it, it's so beautiful!"
"Um."
Qin Qingyao was obviously not very satisfied with Dugu Yu's indifferent response. She turned around to look at him and found that Dugu Yu was not looking at the flowers at all, but at her.
Noticing the dissatisfaction in Qin Qingyao's eyes, Dugu Yu added, "It looks good."
That serious and affectionate gaze finally made Qin Qingyao feel embarrassed, "What are you doing? I asked you to look at the flowers."
"I've seen it." For something like this, you can just take a look at it. Do you have to keep staring at it?
Qin Qingyao really stared at it, reaching out her hand to touch the petals carefully, as if she was afraid of breaking them. Her eyes were shining and she was smiling from ear to ear, which seemed to make her forget all the sadness of saying goodbye to her parents just now.
Dugu Yu glanced at the two flowers coldly, then carried Qin Qingyao back to the room.
"Hey...what are you doing? Put me down!"
Dugu Yu put Qin Qingyao on the bed. When she struggled, he pulled her hand and pressed it three inches below his abdomen. Qin Qingyao immediately froze as if someone had pressed her blood.
She opened her mouth slightly and looked at Dugu Yu in disbelief. Then she remembered what the man said on horseback: "Let's make trouble again when we get home."
So this guy came back all the way...
Qin Qingyao is nineteen years old this year. According to modern laws, she is not yet of marriageable age, so she is not in a hurry to have children. However, Dugu Yu obviously has a different opinion.
But after a long time, Qin Qingyao discovered that Dugu Yu didn't really care whether she was pregnant or not. He was just trying to "kill" her under the guise of giving birth to a child!
So, when someone was excitedly preparing for the third round, Qin Qingyao's strong desire to survive made him kick the unsatisfied beast off the bed.
Faced with someone's face full of grievance and doubt, Qin Qingyao was so angry that her eyes widened and she hugged the quilt tightly. When the person was about to crawl back, she stepped hard on his face.
"Calm down!"
Then the sole of my foot was bitten.
Qin Qingyao quickly retracted her foot as if she had received an electric shock. Force was no longer effective, so she had no choice but to beg for mercy. "What's wrong with you? It's not even dark yet. Can we continue tonight?"
In the past, Dugu Yu could not refuse this kind of inducement at all, and it could be said that he was always successful. But today, Dugu Yu would never compromise.
"Tonight is for tonight, now it's compensation for yesterday!"
Qin Qingyao couldn't help but shudder. She finally understood what Dugu Yu meant by that resentful and then instantly calm look when she said she wanted to sleep with her mother last night.
This guy must have decided on this so-called compensation a long time ago. I didn't agree to it at all!
Just when Qin Qingyao was about to have a good talk with Dugu Yu, her stomach started to growl.
"I'm hungry."
Dugu Yu quickly stood up from the ground, told Bai Zhi to prepare the meal, and then carried Qin Qingyao into the bathroom.
In fact, the so-called compensation yesterday was just an awkward excuse. The main reason why Dugu Yu lost control was because of a little girl who didn't know how to live or die. She sat in front of him on the road and kept picking on him.
In addition, she immediately forgot about him after returning home, and her eyes were shining at the two broken flowers, so someone was jealous.
The dignified King Wu Ling would never admit that he was jealous of the two beauties, so he could only take action to win back his wife's attention.
In the bathroom, the exhausted Qin Qingyao couldn't escape the third round of competition. The prince was finally satisfied and carried his young wife, whose legs were weak, out to eat.
Faced with Bai Zhi's blushing face and her occasional smile, Qin Qingyao no longer even had the energy to feel embarrassed.
The next day, the two camellia flowers had fully bloomed and reached their most beautiful state. Qin Qingyao got up early in the morning and went out to see them. Dugu Yu thought she would cherish them forever.
Who would have thought that she would cut them all off with scissors and put them in a small porcelain vase.
"Hubby, let's go see the old lady!"
Dugu Yu then remembered that Qin Qingyao had once shown off the camellia in her home that had never bloomed in front of the old lady, and had agreed to invite the old lady to see it after it bloomed.
She always keeps her promises.
"Okay, I'll go get the horse."
