My wife is number one in the world

Chapter 4087

As Liu Mingzhi spoke with a smile, he turned his body slightly and raised his arm, pointing towards the other side of the flower bed.

"Lan Ya, when your sister Lian'er and I arrived at this courtyard from the neighboring courtyard, I saw you pouring water into the basin with a ladle from afar!"
"Hey girl, is the water in your bucket clean and clear?"

When Gu Molan heard what Young Master Liu said, she realized that her brother-in-law was thirsty from talking and wanted to drink some water to quench his thirst.

Knowing that her brother-in-law just wanted some water to quench his thirst, Gu Molanya nodded her head a few times with a hesitant expression.

"Brother-in-law, the water in the bucket was just delivered by the soldiers not long ago, so it is naturally clean water."

"but."

After hearing what Gu Molanya had said, Liu Mingzhi was about to turn around and continue walking towards the other side of the flower bed.

However, before he could turn around, he heard Gu Molanya suddenly change her tone and say "just two words".

Upon hearing those two words, he quickly stopped himself from turning around and looked at Gu Mo Lan Ya with a puzzled expression, saying softly, "Lan Ya, but what?"

Hearing her brother-in-law's questioning tone, Gu Molanya smiled and turned her slender waist slightly, looking towards the other side of the flower bed.

"Brother-in-law, the water in the bucket is clean, but it's cold water that hasn't been boiled yet."

This water hasn't been boiled yet; drinking it will easily cause stomach upset.

When Gu Molanya finished speaking in a soft voice, she first slowly turned around, and then, still smiling, gently touched her red lips towards her room.

"Brother-in-law, please wait a moment. I'll go to my room and fetch a pot of herbal tea for you to quench your thirst."

Upon hearing what Gu Molan said, Liu Mingzhi immediately raised his hand and waved gently at Gu Molan.

"Hahaha, hey, Lanya, no need, no need."

"I'm in pretty good health; drinking cold water once or twice now and then has no problem at all."

It must be said that Young Master Liu's two sentences were a bit too modest.

Given his current physical condition, he is more than just strong; it would not be an exaggeration to say that he is full of vigor and vitality.

Moreover, because Young Master Liu was facing Gu Molanya, he did not see the room his sister-in-law had gestured to earlier, which was the room next to Ying'er's room, and it was not lit at the moment.

If he had seen which room Gu Molanya had pointed to with her lip, he would probably have quickly realized why his sister-in-law had been stealing glances at him every now and then today.

Once he understands why his sister-in-law keeps stealing glances at him, he'll probably immediately understand why she kept pretending not to know what was going on, and why she kept playing little tricks on him.

Once you understand the reason, you will naturally understand.

After all, the reasons in that regard were indeed somewhat difficult for his sister-in-law, a young woman who was still unmarried, to talk about.

Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs" in this world.

Gu Molanya became anxious upon hearing Young Master Liu's reply.

"Brother-in-law, how can this be allowed?"
If there's really no hot or cold tea, brother-in-law, you can just make do with some cold water to quench your thirst.

But I can rush to your room anytime to get you a pot of herbal tea to quench your thirst, brother-in-law, why do you insist on drinking cold water to quench your thirst!

"Brother-in-law, please wait a moment. I'll go to your room right away and get you some tea."

As soon as Gu Molanya finished speaking in her clear and melodious voice, without waiting for Young Master Liu's reply, she lifted her lotus feet and headed towards her room not far away.

Upon seeing this, Liu Mingzhi quickly extended his right hand and waved to Gu Molanya, who had already raised her lotus feet.

"Hey, Lanya, wait a minute, wait a minute."

Seeing her brother-in-law suddenly reach out to block her way, Gu Molanya had no choice but to lower her lotus feet, which she had just raised.

"Hey, brother-in-law, what are you doing?"

Liu Mingzhi lowered his arm that was blocking Gu Mo Lanya's way and said with a light laugh, "Lanya, sister, listen to me, there's no need, you really don't need to make another trip."

For me, drinking herbal tea or cold water is the same, as long as it quenches my thirst.

Hearing Liu Dashao's light laugh in reply, Gu Molanya knew that her brother-in-law was determined to drink cold water to quench his thirst.

In response, she could only smile and nod gently to Young Master Liu a few times.

"Okay, I understand."

After Gu Molanya answered Liu Dashao's question in a soft voice with her lips slightly parted, she once again did not wait for her brother-in-law to reply before she quickly lifted her lotus feet and went straight to the water bucket on the other side of the flower bed.

"Brother-in-law, please wait a moment, I'll bring you the water right away."

In Gu Molanya's opinion, it was fine for her brother-in-law to insist on drinking cold water to quench his thirst, but she couldn't let him go to the water bucket to drink the water himself.

Otherwise, as soon as her brother-in-law walked to the bucket, he would immediately see her underwear in the basin.

Upon seeing Gu Molanya suddenly lift her lotus foot and walk forward while she was talking, Young Master Liu immediately turned around and chased after his sister-in-law.

"Lanya, sister, no need, no need, I can go get some water myself."

Seeing this, Gu Molanya hurriedly raised her slender arm and waved gently to Young Master Liu.

"Brother-in-law, the water I spilled on the floor tiles earlier still hasn't dried!"

Brother-in-law, you are as precious as gold. If you were to slip and fall by accident, I would be in deep trouble.

So, for your health, brother-in-law, and for my own sake, it would be better if you didn't go there in person.

"Brother-in-law, wait a moment! Please wait a moment, your little sister will bring you some cold water soon."

After hearing Gu Molan's words, Liu Mingzhi watched her hurrying towards the other side of the flower bed and could only nod with a smile.

"Hehehe, alright, since you've said so, Lan Ya, then I won't go over. Lan Ya, since the water you poured might not have dried yet, don't walk so fast."

Watch your step, be careful not to slip.

"Yes, I understand. I'll be careful," Gu Molanya replied sweetly to Young Master Liu, immediately slowing her pace.

However, she slowed down not because she was worried about slipping, but because she knew her brother-in-law had already stopped, so she couldn't appear too eager.

Otherwise, her brother-in-law might find out something.

Liu Mingzhi looked at Gu Molanya, who had slowed down, and glanced curiously at the buckets and basins on the other side of the flower bed.

He wasn't a brainless idiot, so of course he could see that Gu Molanya had clearly been intentionally blocking him from walking to the other side of the flower bed.

No, no, no, to be more precise, it should be preventing myself from getting closer to the buckets and basins placed on the ground next to the flower bed.

The reason why Gu Molanya stopped him from getting close to the buckets and basins next to the flower bed was probably because there was something in or next to the basins that he couldn't see.

What kind of things are inconvenient for me to see?

Judging from my sister-in-law's reaction and behavior just now, could it be that the thing in or next to the basin was that kind of thing?

In an instant, the words "underwear" popped into Young Master Liu's mind.

Yes, yes.

If nothing unexpected happens, the things in or next to the basin should be Lan Ya's underwear that she changed out of before taking a bath.

Only Lan Ya's personal undergarments, which she had just changed out of, would be inconvenient for him to see.

Wait a minute! Something doesn't seem right!
I've seen Lan Ya washing her underwear with Qi Yun, the Third Princess, the Empress, Hu Yanjunyao, Ren Qingrui, and the other sisters before.

Moreover, I've seen it more than once!

At that time, apart from a slight blush on her pretty face, Lan Ya didn't seem to have such a big reaction!

Moreover, she only blushed slightly the first and second time; she didn't react much the following times.

On a few occasions, when Lan Ya was washing her underwear, she would take the opportunity to chat with her for a few minutes while changing the water, all while she was doing so!
If the things in or next to the basin really were Lan Ya's personal clothing, then under normal circumstances, she wouldn't have any reason to react this way!
After all, it's not like I, as her brother-in-law, haven't seen her underwear before.

Could it be that I'm mistaken, and the things in or around the basin aren't actually Lan Ya's recently changed underwear?

But if the water basin doesn't contain Lan Ya's personal clothing, then what could it be?

Hmm? No, no.

Is it possible that because I am alone with Lan Ya now, she is feeling shy?

If you think about it carefully, it's not impossible.

After all, it was the middle of the night, and there were only the two of them, Lan Ya and himself, in this huge courtyard.

In such an environment, it's perfectly normal for Lanya to feel shy.

On this point, Young Master Liu's conclusion was quite correct: Gu Molanya was indeed shy.

However, the reason why Gu Molanya felt shy was not because it was the middle of the night, nor because there were only the two of them in the courtyard, but because the underwear that Gu Molanya changed out of today was slightly different from the underwear she usually changed out of.

Just as Young Master Liu was wondering with curiosity what was in or next to the basin, Gu Molanya looked at the water ladle in the basin, and her beautiful face flushed red.

The reason her pretty face flushed red was because the water ladle was currently upside down on her undergarments!
Gu Molan had been chatting with Young Master Liu for so long, and because she was so nervous, she had forgotten that she had carelessly tossed the water ladle into the basin earlier.

As she gracefully returned to the basin, she suddenly remembered that she had carelessly placed the water ladle into it.

What she least expected was that, by sheer coincidence, the water ladle had landed upside down on her underwear when she casually placed it down.

If I were to simply pick up the ladle and serve water to my brother-in-law, wouldn't that mean... that...

As soon as Gu Molanya thought of this, a blush quickly spread from her pretty face to her ears and her fair, slender neck.

"What should I do? What should I do? What should I do?"

After hesitating and silently discussing it in her heart, Gu Molanya subconsciously turned her slender waist slightly and looked at Young Master Liu standing behind her.

She had barely turned around to look at Young Master Liu when he noticed her, as he was secretly glancing curiously at the basin of water.

Liu Mingzhi felt Gu Molanya's gaze on him and immediately turned to look back at her.

"Lan Ya, why are you looking at me like that? What's wrong? Is there no water in the bucket?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Molanya quickly and readily shook her head a few times at Young Master Liu.

"No, no, there is water, there is water."

"Hahaha, since there's water, what are you looking at me for? Hurry up and bring me the water."

"Oh, okay, okay, I got it, I'm coming, I'm coming."

After responding to Young Master Liu's words in a sweet voice, Gu Molanya hurriedly turned back to look at the water ladle in the basin again.

She looked at the water ladle that was being placed upside down on her underwear, and bit her shattered silver teeth lightly, as if she wanted to cry but had no tears.

Well, what's done is done, there's no point in worrying about it anymore, let things take their course!

As long as I don't reveal this matter, I don't think my brother-in-law will know what's going on.

After muttering to herself, Gu Molanya reached out her fair hand and picked up the water ladle from the basin.

Immediately, she first gently shook the water ladle in her jade hand a few times, then slowly squatted down next to the bucket, lifting the hem of her clothes.

"Brother-in-law, please wait a moment. I'll rinse the water ladle and then bring the water to you."
