My younger sister insisted on marrying me and made me the Marquis' wife.

Chapter 176 I’m going too

Qin Yuan walked in and saw that Lord Gu, who was sitting behind the table, had fine stubble on his chin and cheeks, and there were red veins in his eyes.

The clothes are still the same as yesterday, wrinkled all the time.

This looks like... I haven't slept all night.

"Husband, didn't you get any rest last night?" Qin Yuan looked at him disapprovingly.

Gu Jinghui laughed dryly and said, "I'm going to go wash up. Yuan'er, sit here and wait for me for a while."

After saying that, he quickly got up and went to wash.

Hongye and Cuiming placed the meal on the table beside the table.

Qin Yuan casually flipped through the papers on the table. There were more than a dozen pieces scattered around, with some random words written on them, and there was no connection between the pieces.

It's a confusing read.

Lord Gu and his subordinates must have an agreed-upon way of reading the words, which outsiders cannot easily decipher.

In his previous life, Lin Ziqi often used secret codes in his correspondence to communicate with his accomplices.

Qin Yuan didn't plan to read any more.

Gu Jinghui came out and saw her flipping through the notes, his eyes looking somewhat deep.

Qin Yuan pretended not to know, tilted her head and smiled, "What did my husband write? But it doesn't look like my husband's handwriting."

Gu Jinghui washed his face and shaved, looking much more energetic. Hearing this, he smiled and said, “These are all messages from the guards outside. You naturally can’t understand them.”

Qin Yuan nodded, walked to the table, and said, "Husband, let's have dinner."

Gu Jinghui and Qin Yuan knelt facing each other. The desk was small, so the two of them were very close to each other, which made them seem even closer.

Hongye and Cuiming retreated.

Lord Gu poured a bowl of fish porridge for Qin Yuan, picked up a piece of milk bun for himself and began to chew slowly.

Neither of them wanted to talk much, and Lord Gu seemed to be distracted, as if he was thinking about something.

After finishing the meal, Qin Yuan said, "Husband, I have finished checking the account books for the backyard this year, and the account books for previous years also need to be checked again."

Lord Gu said, "Well, as long as you are busy enough, a little bit is good."

My wife is quite good at mental arithmetic and can flip through the account book very quickly.

After thinking for a while, Lord Gu said, "If you have any ideas, tell me first, don't alarm mother."

Although she was unsure about his attitude, Qin Yuan had no choice but to agree.

Gu Jinghui said casually, “If you have time, how about you also settle the accounts in the front yard? I haven’t taken care of these since I came back.”

Qin Yuan didn't refuse.

She asked, "Do you want to lie down and rest for a while?"

Gu Jinghui nodded.

Qin Yuan stood up and said, "Then I'll go back first. You should take a rest. Staying up late is harmful to your health. Now so many people in the mansion have smallpox. You should be careful."

Gu Jinghui smiled: "I'm in good health, why are you worried? As long as you are fine, I will be fine too, and I will always be with you until old age."

Qin Yuan lowered her eyes, "..."

Lord Gu couldn't help teasing her again, "Why are you still shy? Don't you always say that husband and wife are one, so naturally our life spans are also one."

Qin Yuan rolled her eyes at him and whispered, "I won't talk to you anymore. If you don't take good care of your body, it will be useless for others to worry about you."

As she said this, she reached out to take the plates on the table. Lord Gu also reached out to pull her up, and with a "bang", the plates fell down and the pieces scattered everywhere.

Fortunately, it was used to hold steamed buns, so no juice was spilled on the ground.

Outside Hongye quickly asked: "Madam, what's the matter?"

Gu Jinghui said in a clear voice: "Nothing, just ask the servant to come in and clean it up later."

Qin Yuan said angrily, "You should take a rest. I'm leaving now. Have someone put the dishes into food boxes and send them to Wutong Garden."

"Are you angry?"

Although Gu Jinghui didn't quite understand what his wife was upset about, he could tell that she was unhappy. Qin Yuan denied it.

Gu Jinghui held her hand tightly and asked, "Are you coming for lunch?"

His eyes were full of expectation, like a child asking for candy.

Qin Yuan said coldly: "You are upside down day and night, and don't take a good rest. What am I doing here?"

Gu Jinghui understood. It turned out that he was still angry about this.

He softened his voice and said, "I don't do this every day. It's just that last night, that Imperial Doctor Liu and the hostage of the Yelu clan communicated with each other, so we couldn't help but pursue him a little too closely. In addition, the guards who visited Xu Zhen last night also sent back a message."

Qin Yuan said with a straight face: "If you take a good rest, I won't be angry. I'm leaving. If you can get up, have lunch. If you can't get up, have dinner."

This means that I have agreed to have dinner with Lord Gu.

Lord Gu then smiled and let go.

Qin Yuan went out and told the servant guarding the door, "Clean the house and ask someone to deliver the food boxes to Wutong Garden."

The servant quickly agreed.

Qin Yuan took Hongye and Cuiming a few steps before they saw Gu Shiliu and Gu Liuye standing in the corridor talking, so they asked, "Have Sixth Brother and Sixteen already had their meal?"

Gu Liuye said enviously, "I have already eaten. Third sister-in-law came to eat with Third Brother. Third Brother is so lucky."

Gu Shiliu said, "I am grateful to Sixth Master for helping me. Madam, are you going back now? The Marquis didn't sleep all night, so it's inevitable that he's not in good spirits. Madam, don't worry."

He heard the noise inside the house from outside and thought that the two people had some dispute, so he hurried to speak in good words for his master.

Qin Yuan asked: "Didn't you sleep last night too?"

Gu Shiliu said, "The Marquis said that I was tired these days, so he came to watch over it, and I will watch over it during the day."

Qin Yuan nodded and said, "Sixth brother, Sixteenth, I have something else to do. Bye."

Gu Shiliu hurriedly stood aside, lowered his head, and waited for Qin Yuan to come over.

Master Gu Liu looked at Qin Yuan's figure and sighed, "Third brother is so lucky."

The servant took advantage of the opportunity and asked, "Sixth Master, do you want to ask Aunt Zheng to serve you dinner?"

Master Gu Liu shook his head, "Your master must take good care of himself from now on. Why would he see her?"

Boy: "..."

Sixth Master is becoming more and more confusing.

Gu Jinghui called Gu Shiliu from the study room, and Gu Shiliu hurriedly said, "Sixth Master, I'll go in first. I have something else to do."

Mr. Gu Liu responded.

After Gu Shiliu left, Master Gu Liu said, "Everyone has something to do, but I have nothing to do."

The servant said: "Sixth Master is also very busy reading and writing poetry."

Master Gu Liu turned around and looked at him: "Ha."

Qin Yuan returned to Wutong Garden and asked someone to invite Doctor Li over. He first asked whether she slept well last night, whether she was used to the living environment, whether she had had breakfast, etc.

Doctor Li and Xiaodong naturally said it was very good.

Qin Yuanfang asked: "When did Master and Imperial Doctor Liu agree to see the patient together?"

Doctor Li frowned and said, "He complained of a headache early this morning and lay still in the room."

Qin Yuan couldn't help but frown. What was going on?
Xiaodong immediately said, "My master and I heard some noises coming from his room last night, and he kept opening and closing the windows."

Doctor Li glanced at Xiaodong and smiled.

Qin Yuan also laughed.

Doctor Li said, "Why don't I go and see how those patients are doing first?"

Now the sick people in the mansion are in one yard, and a group of people who have been in contact with the patients are in another yard, and the number of people is increasing.

Qin Yuan said: "Master, I will go with you."
