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

Chapter 190 Today is really neat

Halfway through the journey, Qin Yuan suddenly remembered that there was something she had not yet told Lord Gu.

I don't know what's wrong with him, he's been acting dishonest from time to time.

It made her feel uncomfortable and delayed her work.

Qin Yuan grabbed the edge of his fan in annoyance, wishing he could beat up this annoying guy to vent his anger.

Back at Wutong Garden, the housekeeper and the stewards came to report and collect materials as usual.

Qin Yuan didn't think too much about it.

There are regulations sorted out for these matters, and you can just follow the instructions.

When everything was done, Gu Shiliu came again, smiled and handed Qin Yuan a box, saying, "Madam, this is what the Marquis asked me to bring. He said that you can't let you wear the servants' clothes. These are what the Marquis wore before. If you think it's okay, you can wear this. The material should be better too."

Before Hongye took over Gu Jinghui's clothes, Gu Shiliu was in charge.

It was difficult for him to dig out all his old clothes.

Qin Yuan was stunned for a moment and said, "Okay, put it here first."

Gu Shiliu walked to the window.

Qin Yuan called him again and ordered: "My Lord, if you want to eat anything for lunch, just send a message to Hongye or Cuiming."

Gu Shiliu smiled and agreed.

Qin Yuan then opened the box and saw that inside the box were several Songjiang cloth shirts that Gu Jinghui had worn. She took one out at random and compared it with the mirror, and it wasn't very long.

Hongye asked in surprise, "I don't know how many years ago this was the Marquis's clothing."

Gu Jinghui is so tall that he must have been taller than Qin Yuan when he was in his teens. So these clothes must be at least ten years old.

Cuiming also came over to take a closer look and said, "It looks like it has never been worn. It is well kept."

Qin Yuan looked at the stitches and found a little lion embroidered on the edge of the clothes with embroidery thread, and also the word "Hui". She was moved and said, "I'm afraid this is a piece of clothing that was sewn by someone with a caring heart."

She is an experienced person and understands what a woman is thinking when she sews clothes for her lover.

I took out another one and it was still the same.

Qin Yuan frowned and thought to herself, could it be the personal maid who used to serve Lord Gu?

But Lord Gu said that he had not had a maid to serve him since he was a little older.

He is surrounded by servants and does many things himself.

So who is this person?
Qin Yuan looked through a few more pieces of clothing and found only one that was different, so she asked the maid to take that piece of clothing, fumigate it with medicinal incense, and then put it on to go find Doctor Li.

Hongye quietly asked Cuiming: "Should we ask Gu Shiliu about this?"

Cui Ming said, "I guess Gu Shiliu doesn't know either. Maybe the Marquis doesn't even have this in mind."

"How to say?"

"If Gu Shiliu knew about this, would he still choose the clothes to annoy the young lady? If the Marquis cared about this person, he would definitely keep the clothes well and not mix them with other ordinary clothes. Would he still let Gu Shiliu choose them?"

They have all figured out what kind of person the Marquis is these days. They will definitely not take these things to heart, as they will all be arranged by others.

Hongye nodded and said, "That's right. Even if there is something, it's all old stuff from many years ago. If Miss minds, she won't mind this."

But looking at the lady's expression, it doesn't seem like she doesn't mind.

Cui Ming curled her lips and said, "It's my fault too. I didn't even think of asking the sewing room to make some men's clothes for the young lady. I'll go find Madam Li right away. Why bother wearing someone else's clothes when you're fine."

Hongye chuckled and put the matter aside.

By noon, when Qin Yuan came back, Cui Ming had asked the maids in the sewing room to work together to make a piece of clothing.

Songjiang cloth is all ready-made material, and the servants' clothes do not need embroidery, as long as the stitches are tight and the clothes are cut to fit.

In the hot summer of the capital, the washed clothes were put outside to dry in less than an hour. The food was on the table, and Cuiming had already ironed the clothes, so Qin Yuan could wear them when she got up from her lunch break.

Hongye gave him a thumbs up and said, "You are really neat today."

Cui Ming snorted and didn't respond.

Before Gu Jinghui arrived, Qin Yuan sat at the table and opened the box.

Yesterday, many people, inspired by Princess Fuyun, threw a lot of things into the mansion, some were letters, some were books, and some were medicine bags and the like.

The Ninth Princess also threw in a letter, saying that she was worried about the safety of Lord Gu. She hoped that Lord Gu, as a pillar of the country, would put his country first and take good care of his health. The Daxing Dynasty could not do without a great general like Lord Gu.

The admiration is obvious.

Qin Yuan smiled.

Lord Gu is quite popular with the princess.

The Qin family also sent a letter in, written by my father.

Qin Jijiu said that his parents couldn't sleep well because they were worried about them, and Qin Heng kept talking about them. The master Jijiu hoped that they could live a good life. If there was anything they needed help with, just let them know, and the Qin family would definitely help.

In addition, at the end of the letter, he reminded Lord Gu not to forget to read, and it would be a good thing to read more books while he has free time.

Qin Yuan put the letter aside.

My father's old illness has recurred, but this is also the result of Lord Gu's deliberate pandering.

Whenever he saw someone who was curious and eager to learn, the Lord Jijiu would always remember to urge that person to study hard.

However, the letter did not mention Qin Wan and Lin Ziqi, which made her feel a little strange.

Based on my father's habits, he would not miss this part.

However, Qin Yuan was too lazy to care about their affairs and didn't pay much attention to them.

The others were families who had dealings with the Dingbei Marquis' Mansion, and most of the letters expressed words of concern, care, and prayers.

Some people also sent folk remedies and medicine packs.

There was also a general under Lord Gu who asked for a talisman to cure diseases and exorcise evil spirits for him at the Jokhang Temple.

There are so many different kinds of things that it’s tiring to see too much.

Qin Yuan turned to the back and saw the letter from Manager Leng.

Just as he was about to open it, Gu Jinghui arrived.

"Yuan'er, I'm late. Is the food cold?"

Gu Jinghui looked apologetic.

Qin Yuan said: "It's okay. It's summer now and it's too hot to eat."

Gu Jinghui said, “It’s all Old Six’s fault. He insisted on dragging me to read his new collection of poems. I told him yesterday to go see my Sixth Brother’s wife and the children, but he wandered around outside for a long time and came back very angry. I don’t know what happened.”

Qin Yuan raised her eyebrows, "Oh?"

The little maid brought in a copper basin and asked the Marquis to wash his hands with the medicine soup.

Lord Gu washed his hands and said, "I have already sent someone to pass on the news you mentioned today to the northern frontier. Maybe there will be news within half a year. If it's fast, it may only take three months."

Qin Yuan said: "If you have any news, you might as well tell me, I also want to know if my guess is right."

Lord Gu pulled her to a seat and said, "Okay, I'll tell you. Eat quickly, the food is getting cold."

Qin Yuan took a few bites of food with her chopsticks, looked at Lord Gu who was concentrating on eating, and said, "Lord Gu never interfered with the affairs of Sixth Brother's room before, why is it that this time..."
