Chapter 48 Chapter 48

Gu Huaisheng walked towards the bridal chamber again.

When the servants saw Gu Huaisheng coming, they saluted in unison.

Gu Huaisheng raised his hand to stop them and went into the house.

There was a faint fragrance in the room, which was a smell that had never been in the house before. Gu Huaisheng lived in Cangzhuo Courtyard, and the room was always cold and deserted, with light colors. Now the bridal chamber was full of joy, with red silk bedding on the bed and the bed curtains also bright red. Jiang Jingchun was sitting beside the bed, clearly wearing a red wedding dress, but she looked particularly conspicuous and prominent in the red.

The feet are on red lotuses, and the hands are red and bare.

She folded her hands in front of her, sitting upright without moving.

This was obviously somewhat beyond Gu Huaisheng's expectations.

He took the wedding scale handed to him, walked in front of her, flicked his wrist, and opened the lid.

A very bright face was revealed under the veil. Her long black hair was tied up today, and she wore a pearl crown on it, with long hairpins on both sides. The bright red wedding dress did not make her look bloated, but made her look more youthful. Her fair skin was as bright and translucent as the full moon outside the house. Her eyebrows were dyed black, and her lips were painted scarlet, adding a touch of almost charming rosy red.

Perhaps it was because he drank too much today, so Gu Huaisheng felt his heart beating exceptionally fast.

Before I could react, I heard Jiang Jingchun speak.

She pouted and complained, "Why did you come so late? I'm so tired."

She was wearing such a huge pearl crown, and her neck was not broken. He himself was very happy. He drank a lot outside and finally came back slowly.

Hearing Jiang Jingchun's complaints, before Gu Huaisheng opened his mouth, the matchmaker on the side spoke first: "It is common for the groom to socialize, and this young marquis hasn't been here for long. Okay, Madam, don't be angry, let's drink the wedding wine first."

The matchmaker almost fainted when she heard Jiang Jingchun's words "quickly call out". She saw that the groom looked at the bride with eyes that seemed to make her drunk. But this little bride was ignorant of romance and almost ruined all the beauty in the room as soon as she opened her mouth. She had to finish the ceremony here quickly and leave as soon as possible. If she stayed any longer, who knew what kind of trouble she would cause.

She brought two glasses of wine and handed them to the two people, and Gu Huaisheng sat down beside the bed.

As soon as he sat down, he reeked of alcohol, which made Jiang Jingchun frown.

There were a bunch of people standing nearby watching, so Jiang Jingchun couldn't do anything. He took the wine glass with a frown and drank the wedding wine with Gu Huaisheng.

Their faces were very close to each other. Perhaps it was because he drank too much today, even his eyes were filled with emotions that were not usually in them. His cold black eyes suddenly showed some amorous feelings.

Too close.

Jiang Jingchun didn't want to look at him, so she closed her eyes and drank the glass of wine.

A big red wedding candle was burning and swaying nearby, projecting the image of the two people drinking together onto the wall.

Gu Huaisheng's eyes fell on her tightly closed eyes. She didn't want to look at him, but he stared at her firmly. She didn't get drunk after drinking one glass of wine after another outside, but after one glass of wine, her head was dizzy.

The matchmaker standing by was even more delighted to see the two of them drinking the wine peacefully. She happily took the wine glass and had someone tie the glasses together with a cloth strip.

The wedding ceremony symbolizes that two people in love are connected together and will never be separated.

The matchmaker had almost finished preparing the gifts, said some congratulatory words, and then led the people in the room out.

After all, the gift was done, but the bride seemed restless, and she didn't know how they would spend the wedding night. But that was not something she should worry about, so she just went to ask for the reward.

After everyone in the house left, only two people were left inside.

Compared to the liveliness just now, it's a bit too quiet now.

Jiang Jingchun had been serious for a whole day, but finally broke down. She reached out to take off the pearl crown on her head, but she heard Gu Huai's voice beside her: "Let me do it."

Jiang Jingchun didn't refuse. Since he was coming, she was too lazy to pick them herself.

Jiang Jingchun turned sideways, and Gu Huaisheng began to undress the things on her head.

Gu Huaisheng moved very gently, his fingers were nimble, and he was very careful. Even when he was untying something so complicated, he never pulled her hair.

He lowered his head, and his snow-white neck came into view, even more conspicuous against the backdrop of his wedding dress.

My fingers couldn't stop shaking.

He thought, maybe it was because of the alcohol.

He was distracted and accidentally pulled her hair. He heard a cry of pain, and then heard Jiang Jingchun say, "It hurts, be gentle."

Gu Huaisheng came back to his senses and immediately looked away. Soon, he helped her untie the things on her head.

The jewellery was put aside and her long black hair fell in curls around her shoulders.

The house fell into silence again.

Last night, the nanny beside the old lady showed Jiang Jingchun a picture album, which recorded the joys of the couple's wedding night. Jiang Jingchun blushed as she read it. It was also yesterday that she finally realized what the thing was that Gu Huaisheng was pressing against her in the Gongyuan that day.

Jiang Jingchun's ears turned red as he thought of those things at an inappropriate time.

But she didn't really want to do anything like a married couple's thing with Gu Huaisheng. She wasn't really sincere about getting married this time, so naturally she couldn't do such intimate things with Gu Huaisheng. If they did such a thing, it would be inevitable that only he would be happy, and she would not be happy.

She was lost in thought, pursing her red lips tightly, when she heard Gu Huaisheng suddenly speak from the side.

"cousin……"

Gu Huaisheng was confused after drinking the wedding wine. He blurted out the word "cousin". After he said it, he realized that no, they were not cousins ​​now, but husband and wife.

He immediately changed his words, "My wife."

These two simple words came out of his mouth with an indescribable tenderness.

Jiang Jingchun turned around to look at him, wanting him to stop yelling so hatefully, but she heard him say, "Can we have our wedding night..."

Gu Huaisheng was already 21 years old. Although he was inexperienced, he was not completely ignorant of these matters. The Gu family had a strict tradition and had never had any dirty deeds. However, he had heard and seen a lot of them when he was in the government office.

Power and sex have been inseparable since ancient times. In the past, before he was promoted, he could not avoid participating in social events, where there were many sensual and romantic activities. Although he had never been involved in them, he had seen them.

To be honest, they are all quite dirty.

Many of those people took a fancy to her and immediately went to lie on the couch.

Because he had seen it so many times, he was actually not unfamiliar with matters between men and women.

He read the brochure yesterday and vaguely understood how to do this.

The wedding day is the bridal chamber.

However, this is not just his business.

Gu Huaisheng was wearing wedding clothes, with a faint blush on his cold white skin. He looked much gentler and more obedient than usual, but this question seemed a little abrupt and strange when he asked it.

Jiang Jingchun looked at him and met his pair of affectionate peach blossom eyes. The corners of his eyes were a little red, and seemed to have a lascivious look.

Jiang Jingchun was not unfamiliar with this kind of look. She had the same expression after he kissed her in Gongyuan that day.

He asked her if he could spend the wedding night with her, and Jiang Jingchun asked him back, "What do you think?"

Does she look like she wants to spend her wedding night with him?

What's the good question?

Gu Huaisheng was not surprised to hear this. He had been smiling since he entered the room, and even now the smile had not faded.

Seeing that his eyes were still burning, Jiang Jingchun felt inexplicably guilty, and for some reason he reached out and covered his eyes.

She opened her lips and said, "Gu Huaisheng, could you please stop being so lewd?"

Jiang Jingchun felt much better after covering her eyes and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

She covered his eyes with her palms.

The warm palm and the fragrance of her hand penetrated his nose.

She said he was a pervert?

Gu Huaisheng was stunned for a moment, then he responded and chuckled softly. With a low pitch in his voice, he asked, "Madam, do you want to know what true lust is?"

He just glanced at her a few times, but his eyes unconsciously revealed a bit of love/desire...That was not desire, that was liking. If there was no liking, there would be no desire.

But she actually said he was a pervert...

How could she give him such a name?

Jiang Jingchun heard the danger in his words. She loosened her hand and glared at him, "Don't even think about it."

Although Gu Huaisheng was strong, he could tolerate this matter. Seeing that she was so unwilling, he did not want to force her too much. Jiang Jingchun had married him with a lot of anger. Even a kiss from her could make her angry for a long time. If he forced her to consummate the marriage, she would be so angry that she might ignore him for the rest of her life.

He is not that greedy.

He wanted to marry Jiang Jingchun, not to keep her by his side as a concubine. Gu Huaisheng was calculating in his heart that they were already married, so there was no need to rush into something that would lead to his own demise...

At this moment, Jiang Jingchun's stomach made a rumbling sound.

She got on the sedan chair early this morning. She was a little tired after sitting for a whole day.

Gu Huaisheng stopped talking about the marriage consummation and stood up to go to the table and brought back some delicate tea and fruit. He said, "Fill your stomach first. I'll ask the servants to bring some hot food."

Jiang Jingchun didn't hesitate to take the food from his hand, and then stopped him, saying, "Don't do it. I'm going to sleep after eating this. I'm very sleepy."

She was woken up as soon as the sun rose. She was busy until this hour and was naturally exhausted. She also felt a little dizzy after drinking from the wedding wine.

Even if Jiang Jingchun said she was sleepy, Gu Huaisheng would not pull her away and prevent her from sleeping.

He said, "Okay, you eat first. I'll go purify myself first. If you feel sleepy, go to sleep first. I'll turn off the lights later."

As soon as he approached her, she frowned. It was obvious that she was affected by the smell of alcohol on him.

Gu Huaisheng also didn't want to have such a smell on herself. It was a bit dirty and she didn't like it very much.

After he said this, he went towards the purification room, leaving Jiang Jingchun alone sitting beside the bed.

She smelled of alcohol, it was time to purify herself. Jiang Jingchun understood what Gu Huaisheng meant. She thought that since he let her sleep first, he probably wouldn't think about consummating their marriage anymore...

But she was still a little worried, so she padded her belly a little and then took off the heavy wedding dress with Hua Yun.

She lay down on the bed but didn't dare to fall asleep. What if Gu Huaisheng got drunk tonight and went wild?

If he didn't drink on weekdays, she would believe him this time, but he drank a lot tonight, who knows what will happen.

The glass of wine made her head even more confused. Her alcohol tolerance was really too poor. She would pass out after just one glass.

Finally, she stayed awake and waited until Gu Huaisheng came out of the purification room.

She closed her eyes and felt him coming towards the bed, with a faint smell of water vapor. The smell of alcohol on his body had completely gone, leaving only a light fragrance after bathing.

She lay under the quilt without moving. Although she closed her eyes, she could feel the light in front of her eyes. But after Gu Huaisheng got on the couch, she felt that it got dark in front of her eyes, and the light was completely blocked by his figure.

What does he want to do?

Jiang Jingchun thought to herself that Gu Huaisheng was indeed not honest. She was about to open her eyes to see what he was going to do, but the next moment a handkerchief was covered over her face.

The handkerchief was a little wet, and it gently wiped across her face, from her forehead, to her eyes, nose... and finally landed on her lips, wiping them carefully.

It was a clean face.

Jiang Jingchun's tense heart instantly settled down. Gu Huaisheng's movements were gentle. She relaxed and slowly fell asleep.

After Gu Huaisheng wiped her face, he turned off the light and lay down on the bed.

In the silent night, the sound of my heartbeat was especially clear, and her long breathing was right beside my ears.

Gu Huaisheng tilted his head to look, and with the moonlight coming in from the window, he could vaguely see her profile.

There was suddenly someone beside me. Far from being uncomfortable, I felt surprisingly at peace.

He moved his hand to hers, covered it gently, and then closed his eyes and fell asleep.

He thought of the time when he taught her to write. She always came to Gu's house. During the teaching, he accidentally touched her hand and saw that she was secretly happy.

He really didn't understand at that time, what was there to be happy about...

He didn't understand. He was never willing to think from her perspective. He acted on her whim and ignored her needs, insisting on giving her the name of a child.

But now, in the dead of night, when there was no sound, he lay on the bed, listening to her breathing, and he seemed to have fallen into the same situation as she had. At this moment, he suddenly realized...

It turns out that if you like someone and care about someone, you will be happy just by touching their hands.

It's like touching something extremely precious, and I can't stop feeling happy just by touching it.

Is this love? Maybe, Gu Huaisheng thought.

He just felt that his heart beat so fast when he saw her wearing her wedding dress and marrying him, and when he saw her sitting by the bed waiting for him.

The two of them slept on the same bed, and Gu Huaisheng soon fell asleep as well.

Before Gu Huaisheng got married, there were only some maids doing odd jobs in this courtyard. After they got married, Mrs. Gu was afraid that there were not enough people, so she assigned a lot of people here.

The maids were keeping watch outside and they found it a little strange that after the fire was put out inside, there was no sound for a long time.

"Why isn't the young master in bed with his wife? Why is there no sound at all inside..."

The people beside her had no idea. She was also just transferred here. She said, "Don't ask, don't ask. We just need to keep watch all night."

When they came, the nanny had already told them that Gu Huaisheng disliked people who talked too much, and told them not to gossip when they had nothing to do.

The two of them didn't say anything more about this matter and just kept vigil quietly.

The night passed quickly, and soon it was the next day. The morning light was dim, and the sunlight fell on the windowsill like bits of silver. It was almost the end of September, and the early morning was already a bit chilly.

Jiang Jingchun didn't sleep well at night. She woke up in the morning feeling very cold and rolled up the quilt all over herself, totally forgetting that there was someone lying next to her.

Gu Huaisheng was awakened by the cold. He drank so much yesterday that his head still hurt a little when he woke up. He turned his head and saw a silkworm pupa wrapped next to him. He couldn't help but want to laugh and laughed out loud.

It was already dawn. Gu Huaisheng looked at the person wrapped in the quilt beside him, but he felt as if he was still dreaming. He moved to her side and pulled the bright red quilt down a little, revealing a little of her face.

That face appeared, it was the face that had appeared in my dreams countless times.

It was a little cold in the early morning of late autumn. While Jiang Jingchun was still asleep, he quietly pulled the quilt off her a little, pulled out a small corner, and crawled into the quilt.

The fragrance of my cousin mixed with the warm air swept over me, and the discomfort of the sore and swollen head subsided a little.

He lay down beside her, and soon fell asleep again.

He has never slept in his whole life. Whenever he wakes up, he gets up immediately.

But today, she couldn't get up, and he didn't even want to remember it.

Around 9:00 p.m., the maids outside found it strange that there was no movement inside for a long time, so the young lady let it go. Why did the young marquis get up so late with the others? She was afraid that he would be late for serving tea to the marquis and his wife, so she came in to wake them up.

Jiang Jingchun gradually woke up after hearing the maids' movements. After waking up, she felt uncomfortable in the crowded place. She turned her head and saw Gu Huaisheng lying beside her, who was also awake.

He was so close to her that she almost pushed him against the wall.

She was so big, how could she be short of breath?

Jiang Jingchun couldn't help but push him, "Are you sick? There's so much space in there, why are you squeezing me?"

I don't understand what he is thinking, why he has to squeeze into a group.

No wonder she said that she felt like she was being pressed down by a ghost while sleeping. It turned out that the one pressing down on her was not a ghost but Gu Huaisheng.

Gu Huaisheng didn't say anything after being pushed. He said, "You're so cold, just roll up the quilt. If I don't crawl next to you, you'll freeze to death."

This sounds quite unfair.

Jiang Jingchun didn't care whether he was cold or not. She sneered, "Then you can't come and squeeze me. Just bring another quilt over later. This is my sleeping problem. It's okay if we sleep in separate rooms."

They quarreled on the first day of marriage and said they wanted to sleep in separate rooms on the first day of marriage...

After hearing these words, the two maids who were about to help them get up buried their heads in their chests and were afraid to listen any further.

Why is this young lady so noisy... Gu Huaisheng didn't say anything just now, so why did she get so angry?

One of them quietly looked at Huaisheng's expression, but he didn't seem to be angry.

Gu Huaisheng knew what she was angry about. Ever since Gongyuan had forced her, Jiang Jingchun had been holding a grudge, and she probably couldn't get rid of it. After all, she was forced to marry him. As long as they were husband and wife, she would always remember that she was forced into this marriage.

She is like this now, always looking at him with a bad face. I am afraid she wants to annoy him as soon as possible and make him regret it.

When Gu Huaisheng heard her say that they wanted to sleep in separate rooms, he immediately said, "You and I are husband and wife, and husband and wife cannot sleep in separate rooms."

"Gu Huaisheng, are you still treating me like a child?" Jiang Jingchun almost rolled his eyes.

Why can't a couple sleep in separate rooms? Does it mean that once they become husband and wife, they are tied together and can only stick to one bed?

This obviously didn't fool her.

She wasn't that affectionate with him.

Gu Huaisheng was choked by her words, and he coughed lightly, changing the subject. He said, "Get up first, we still have to serve tea to our mother."

The maids beside him heaved a sigh of relief when they heard this. Fearing that the quarrel would continue, they quickly echoed, "Yes, we have to go to Jinghua Hall to pay our respects to the Marquis and his wife later."

After hearing this, Jiang Jingchun finally stopped talking about this topic. She stood up, stepped over Gu Huaisheng, got out of bed, and asked Hua Yun to do her makeup.

The two maids at the side looked at each other. After Jiang Jingchun left, the smile on Gu Huaisheng's face faded. They didn't know what to do for a moment. Fortunately, Gu Huaisheng finally raised his hand to wave them away and stood up.

Gu Huaisheng was too patient when it came to Jiang Jingchun's affairs. It was reasonable for her to be angry with him. After all, she had persisted for two years despite how he treated her.

How could he not be able to bear it?

As long as she doesn't miss the old times, he doesn't care.

They are already married and are husband and wife. They have prayed to heaven and earth and are recognized as a couple by God.

This incident was just a minor episode. They quarreled every day anyway, so there was nothing abnormal about quarreling as soon as they got together. After they had washed up and got dressed, they headed towards Jinghua Hall together.

Jiang Jingchun had already put her hair into a bun with a simple hairpin hanging in the middle of her hair, which made her face look more mature. She was wearing a long, bright red dress, which made her skin look even whiter and her eyes more bright.

Gu Huaisheng walked side by side with her. They entered the courtyard together and stepped onto the corridor. Gu Huaisheng suddenly said, "I won't squeeze you next time. We don't need to sleep in separate rooms and we don't need two quilts."

The autumn wind blew through the corridor, passed by the two people, and entangled the corners of their clothes together. The setting sun in the early morning shone through the corridor and shone on them.

Jiang Jingchun was slightly stunned, as if she didn't expect Gu Huaisheng to bring up what happened just now.

Jiang Jingchun pursed her lips. After listening to his conciliatory words, she didn't know how to respond for a moment. She looked at him suspiciously, but saw that he lowered his head with a serious look in his eyes.

She asked, "Then are you still going to fight with me for the quilt?"

Gu Huai shook his head, his voice sounding a bit muffled. He shook his head and said, "I won't rob anymore."

He didn't intend to rob at first.

Jiang Jingchun was just looking for an excuse to make trouble, and he didn't think about sleeping in separate rooms on the first day of marriage. It wouldn't be a big deal if Mrs. Gu heard about it, but it would be bad if she learned it and told her grandmother.

He also said that he would not grab the quilt or squeeze her, so she naturally had no excuse to make trouble again.

It’s up to him. If he doesn’t want a quilt, he will be the one who freezes to death when the weather gets cold.

Jiang Jingchun didn't say anything else as the two of them were almost reaching the main hall.

Going into the house, Madam Gu and Lord Gu were already sitting on the main seats, and Gu Huailang was also sitting obediently below. They both got up a little late, so they arrived a little late. Gu Huailang was a little restless below, but he didn't say anything. He was a little bored waiting, so he sat in his seat and fiddled with his fingers.

When they saw Jiang Jingchun and Gu Huaisheng come in, the three of them, who had been slouching, sat up straight.

Mrs. Gu was the first to say to the two of them with a smile, "You're here."

Lord Gu also said, "Xiaochun, how are you? Did you sleep well yesterday after a tiring day? I hope Fu Yan didn't bully you."

After all, the two of them had watched Jiang Jingchun grow up since she was a child. Regardless of anything else, they just regarded her as a child of the clan, and just because of the old things, they would not be too harsh on her. Besides...even though Jiang Jingchun seemed willing on the surface, who knew what she was thinking in her heart.

If she is unwilling, I'm afraid her life will become depressing.

But Gu Huaisheng finally got married, which put Mrs. Gu's mind at ease.

Now she doesn't want to think about anything else. She just wants the two of them to live a good life. Life is just a matter of getting by, and things will eventually turn out well.

Last time, I heard from Lord Gu about Gu Huaisheng's childhood, and I completely understood that Gu Huaisheng is a person who is hard on the outside but soft on the inside. In his heart, he has 70% affection for people, but it does not show on his face.

She had already distanced herself from him and pushed him away completely. Now that things had come to this, she must not let him get into trouble with Jiang Jingchun again. She could see that Gu Huaisheng definitely had Jiang Jingchun in his heart, but with his bad temper, she didn't know how he could live like this.

Besides, Jiang Jingchun must have been holding a grudge in her heart, and she was afraid that they would start fighting.

The two men spoke to Jiang Jingchun with some caution, and Jiang Jingchun could hear it.

To be fair, her aunt and uncle treated her well. Not to mention the marriage, when she was young, her uncle treated her better than Jiang Nan, and he always gave her the biggest winning money during festivals.

She bowed to them and replied, "Thank you for your concern, aunt and uncle..."

She subconsciously called out the old name again. When the words came out of her mouth, Jiang Jingchun herself was a little slow to react. The atmosphere around them was awkward for a moment. Madam Gu and Lord Gu looked at each other, not knowing whether to speak up to correct it. They looked at Gu Huaisheng, but saw that he was also speechless.

Gu Huailang suddenly said, "Sister-in-law...did you call me by mistake?"

Gu Huailang didn't understand much. He just knew that his brother had married his cousin. Now that she was married, the way they addressed each other should change. Gu Huailang thought that he should not call her cousin but sister-in-law. Then she should also call her uncle and aunt father and mother.

Lord Gu scolded him, "Don't talk nonsense, kid. Your cousin can yell whatever she wants. Don't interfere."

He changed his tone faster than anyone else and called her "sister-in-law" more fluently than anyone else.

But Jiang Jingchun said nothing. She didn't need to get angry with Lord Gu and Madam Gu, and she didn't need to get entangled in a title. She changed her tone and called, "Father, Mother."

Lord Gu and Madam Gu were stunned for a moment, but they quickly reacted and agreed with a smile.

Jiang Jingchun started serving tea again.

After the toast, the two of them gave her a big red envelope. Jiang Jingchun had received a lot of red envelopes since she was a child, so this time she didn't hesitate to accept it.

No one said anything else after completing the formalities and did not continue. However, Mrs. Gu asked Jiang Jingchun to stay and wanted to say something alone.

Gu Huaisheng didn't know what she would say, and didn't want to go out, until Lord Gu pulled him aside and said, "Women naturally have some private things to say, why are you trying to stir up trouble? Let's just go out."

Since he said this, Gu Huaisheng didn't say anything else and followed him out.

Only Jiang Jingchun and Mrs. Gu were left in the main room.

Mrs. Gu spoke first. She tentatively asked about what happened last night. She asked, "Did you consummate your marriage last night?"

Although this matter could be found out from the servants, since Jiang Jingchun was already sitting here, there was no need to ask others. Besides, she also wanted to know what Jiang Jingchun was thinking at the moment.

Jiang Jingchun answered her truthfully, "Not yet."

It was indeed strange that the marriage was not consummated on the wedding night, and Jiang Jingchun didn't know what Mrs. Gu would think.

Mrs. Gu thought for a moment and asked tentatively, "But Fu Yan is not very good at it..."

It was not her malicious speculation. Gu Huaisheng did not even have a maidservant, and he usually looked pure and innocent. Besides, he was the one who insisted on marrying his cousin. Would he do nothing but sleep on the wedding night with candles on? It didn't make sense.

She obviously didn't expect that it was because Jiang Jingchun was unwilling. After all, she thought, according to Gu Huaisheng's style of doing things, even if Jiang Jingchun was not willing, he could always get the house by coaxing, deceiving, or being tough.

After thinking about it, it's really not right for him to remain indifferent with his beautiful wife by his side...

The more I think about it, the more possible it seems. Could it be that Gu Huaisheng doesn't take in concubines because he has a hidden illness?

A normal man, after all, has normal physical desires.

Mrs. Gu felt a little dizzy and her face turned pale. If Gu Huaisheng really had some problem, and the old lady knew about it, it would be all over.

Being a widow at such a young age is truly a tragedy.

Why didn't she think of this before...If she had thought of it earlier, she would have cured him earlier.

Jiang Jingchun didn't quite understand why Mrs. Gu thought of this. She recalled what happened with Gu Huaisheng. It's not that she wouldn't do it, but whether it would work... she didn't know.

Seeing that Mrs. Gu's face was getting uglier and uglier, she knew that she was thinking something bad, but she didn't want to clear Gu Huaisheng's name. She was happy to see him laugh and make a fool of himself.

She sighed and said with a worried look on her face, "My cousin seems to be a little bit down. I saw him saying he wanted to go to bed yesterday, and I didn't think much of it."

She could change her words and call Madam Gu and Marquis Gu mother and father, but she really couldn't call him Mr. Gu Huaisheng.

Mrs. Gu slapped her thigh when she heard this. She was so anxious that she said something obscene. "So, did you guys get in yesterday?"

No, no, that's not right. Jiang Jingchun has no blood on her body, so she must be gone.

She was so anxious at the moment that she forgot about it.

What she should ask is why Gu Huaisheng is not so capable.

If it were before, Jiang Jingchun would not have understood what Madam Gu meant. What to enter? What to enter? But before she got married, she was taught a lot of knowledge in that area by her nanny and read a lot of picture books. Now she understood what Madam Gu was talking about.

Her face suddenly turned red, and a blush appeared on it, which was particularly obvious.

Mrs. Gu then realized that Jiang Jingchun was still ignorant of human nature, so what she said in front of her was indeed a bit rude.

She didn't mention the matter again, but only thought to herself that she would have to treat Gu Huaisheng's illness when the time came.

It’s okay, there’s still time, she kept comforting herself in her heart.

Jiang Jingchun coughed lightly, bringing her back to her senses. Madam Gu heard her say, "Mother, please don't say that I said this. After all, my cousin is a very proud person, and I am his wife now. If he knew that I said this, he would inevitably feel ashamed and think that I had something against him. I am afraid he would think too much."

But Gu Huaisheng must not be allowed to know that it was she who said these slanderous words.

Mrs. Gu thought that what Jiang Jingchun said was reasonable. It was indeed shameful for this man to be unable to show his virility on his wedding night. She could only blame herself for not caring enough about him in the past and not even noticing such a serious problem.

But after hearing what Jiang Jingchun said, he felt relieved. It seemed that she didn't dislike her useless cousin anymore. He was worried that their life would not be going smoothly, but now it seems that it is not that bad after all.

She looked at Jiang Jingchun and nodded with relief, saying, "Well, it's rare that you care about him. Mother will definitely let you live a happy life."

Jiang Jingchun didn't quite understand. What does a happy life have to do with this thing?

Why did she feel like she had gotten herself into trouble?

This strange feeling never dissipated even after I left the main room.

Because of his new marriage, Gu Huaisheng got three days of rest and did not have to go on duty today. He waited for Jiang Jingchun to come out under the corridor, and when he saw her coming out, he went to greet her.

The two are now returning to Gu Huaisheng's Cangzhuoyuan.

Gu Huaisheng noticed that Jiang Jingchun looked a little strange, so he couldn't help but ask, "What did your mother say to you just now?"

Did my mother say something bad?

Jiang Jingchun is still thinking about what Mrs. Gu meant by what she said just now, and what does a happy life have to do with whether Gu Huaisheng is successful or not.

don't know.

When she heard Gu Huaisheng asking her a question, she didn't have the energy to answer properly, so she just said casually, "I didn't say anything, I just gave you a few words of advice."

Hearing her say this, Gu Huaisheng didn't think much about it, and the two of them returned to Cangzhuoyuan in silence.

It was a little late when the two woke up, so they simply ate breakfast and lunch together.

Gu Huaisheng was very busy. Even after getting married and resting at home, he didn't know what he was busy with. After dinner, seeing that Jiang Jingchun ignored him, he didn't bother her anymore and went to the study. Jiang Jingchun got acquainted with the new maids in Cangzhuoyuan and spent time in the yard by herself.

It was not until dinner time that Gu Huaisheng returned from the study.

After their wedding, they went to the dining room to have dinner with Mrs. Gu and others.

After arriving at the dining room, they exchanged greetings and sat down together.

After Gu Huaisheng sat down, Mrs. Gu kept urging him to eat. She said, "You were busy as a supervisor recently, and there was a wedding yesterday. You must be tired after a busy day. Hurry up and eat some food to replenish your energy."

Gu Huaisheng felt that it was a little unusual for Mrs. Gu to be so attentive today, but he did not think much about it and started eating as he was told. Jiang Jingchun, who was sitting next to him, was already very familiar with the Gu family and did not feel strange or uncomfortable having a meal with Mrs. Gu and Lord Gu. He did not listen to what Mrs. Gu and Gu Huaisheng were saying and just enjoyed his meal.

This meal was quite good.

At night, the two of them slept on the same bed. Jiang Jingchun warned Gu Huaisheng not to squeeze her again and then fell asleep. But Gu Huaisheng was lying on the bed, but he didn't know why he was particularly hot. It was obviously not like this last night. What happened tonight?

There was no way. He felt really uncomfortable, and with Jiang Jingchun lying next to him, he could not bear it any longer. He stood up and asked someone to bring some cool water to the bathroom. After taking a cool shower, he finally felt better.

Gu Huaisheng finally remembered that Mrs. Gu was acting unusually tonight.

There's something wrong with tonight's food...

Inside Jinghua Hall.

Lord Gu and Madam Gu had just finished making love and were now lying on the bed chatting.

Lord Gu showed a bitter look on his face, "That's enough, these dishes are too nutritious. I don't know if Fu Yan can help, but I'm really going to die."

The Marquis's wife rolled her eyes at him and said, "You are so greedy. I told you to eat less, but you refused to eat. You are like a starving ghost."

Lord Gu hurriedly said: "Can you blame me for this? Which of these dishes of yours is not aphrodisiac? I just want to pick a dish to eat, and you are all using leeks for aphrodisiac purposes..."

Listening to Lord Gu's complaints, Madam Gu didn't take it to heart. She couldn't care less about his discomfort. What was important now was Gu Huaisheng's life.

She found it very strange. "You said that it has been repaired so well, why is there still no movement at the Cangzhuyuan?"

She has given him so much, why is his yard still so quiet?

Mrs. Gu looked unhappy. "Oh no! If this doesn't work, I'll have to find a doctor to take a look next time..."

Mrs. Gu was only afraid that Gu Huaisheng was already "terminally ill" and was still thinking about how to make him better, little knowing how much suffering she was causing him.

The next day, the sky was just getting bright as the dawn broke.

Gu Huaisheng didn't sleep well last night and didn't expect to have a reaction when he woke up this morning.

Although it has happened before, it has never been as strong as this time.

He looked down between his legs, then glanced at Jiang Jingchun who was still sleeping next to him. He was afraid that she would be frightened when she woke up, so he thought about rushing to the bathroom to solve the problem.

His eyebrows ached terribly. He didn't know what his mother wanted to do by making such nutritious dishes... Could it be that she wanted to improve her relationship with his father?

Not long after Gu Huaisheng went to the bathroom, Jiang Jingchun on the bed also woke up.

Today is the third day after our marriage, the day of our return to our home.

Jiang Jingchun usually doesn't get up very early, but thinking that he had to go back to Jiang's house to see his grandmother today, he woke up early.

She tilted her head to look out the window. It seemed to be still early in the morning. She saw that there was nothing beside her and didn't think much about it. It was normal for Gu Huaisheng to wake up earlier than her.

Perhaps thinking about going to Jiang's house today, he got up early and went out.

Jiang Jingchun just woke up and still felt a little dizzy. He dozed off for a while in bed, but it was already dawn. He thought about having to dress up soon and was afraid of delaying his return home, so he finally got up and went to the bathroom to wash up.

She walked towards the clean room.

The house was quiet, with the occasional sound of kingfishers coming in from the window. The morning breeze came in through the window lattice, and I felt a little cold wearing only a middle shirt.

She rubbed her shoulders and continued inside.

But the closer I got, the weirder it seemed.

Why did she seem to hear some strange sounds?

Like a man's low gasp...

Jiang Jingchun felt something was a little strange and suspected that he had gotten up too early and his mind was a little fuzzy. But after shaking his head, the sound became more obvious. In addition to the panting, there seemed to be other sounds.

So strange.

Was it coming from the purification room, or from somewhere else? Didn’t Gu Huaisheng go out?

There were all kinds of strange thoughts in my mind, but my feet had already unconsciously walked inside.

The further we went inside, the louder the sound became.

Jiang Jingchun felt more and more puzzled until she entered the purification room and saw the scene in front of her. She was completely stunned.
