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

Chapter 255 Eyes Tired

Aunt You had a daughter, and Aunt Geng had a son, both under two years old, and were being held by wet nurses.

Aunt Deng had been in the mansion for less than two years, and Aunt Zheng had been in the mansion for less than half a year, and they had not yet given birth.

If the absent Sixth Madam, Aunt Huang, and four children were included, the Sixth Master's family would need two tables to accommodate them.

Qin Yuan thought to herself, Mr. Gu Liu is really a romantic man. With so many wives and concubines, is there no one he likes? He always makes a fuss with Madam Six about taking a concubine.

Seeing that only the couple were with the Third Prince, Madam Gu felt a little uncomfortable, but she couldn't say anything, so she said, "After all this commotion, I'm a little hungry. Let's have dinner. We must be good to the Sixth Prince in the future. Let's burn the poetry collection tomorrow to make the old marquis happy."

Speaking of this, Master Gu Liu was a little embarrassed. He raised his cup and toasted with a smile, "Thank you, mother. I will study hard in the future to make you feel at ease and set a good example for the children."

"As the saying goes, like father, like son; like teacher, like brother," Old Madam Gu said with a smile, "It's good that you think this way. In the future, you should get along more with the Qin family. With your third sister-in-law's cousin as your guide, you should also walk the right path and stop hanging out with those scholars who can't get into school."

"Yes," Master Gu Liu toasted his third brother and then his third sister-in-law: "Thank you for your guidance. I hope you can give me more guidance in the future."

Qin Yuan smiled and said, "I was just speaking casually, how can it be called 'guidance'? Sixth brother draws so well, he is really talented."

She had just read Mr. Gu Liu's new poetry collection. The portraits of people, landscapes, flowers and birds attached to the collection were quite ordinary and not outstanding, but they also had many good points.

Although most of the work is due to the painter, one can also see that Mr. Gu Liu does have some talent.

If you study hard and practice diligently, you will have some success, which will be enough for you to interact with the scholars in the capital.

After making friends with Qin Siyuan, Mr. Gu Liu has changed so much. I wonder what will happen if he can acquire a skill and make friends with talented people in Beijing.

Lord Gu drank his own wine, then took Qin Yuan's wine cup and drank it all for her, saying, "We are all family, no need to be modest."

Then he said to his sixth brother, "Sixth brother, you have good vision. Even the chief priest praised your third sister-in-law's talent, not to mention the young master of the Qin family. Didn't you see the memorial she wrote for me? It's beyond the reach of ordinary scholars."

He really spared no effort in praising his young wife.

Master Gu Liu was a little sour: "... Third brother is so lucky..."

Seeing that he was slow to reply, Lord Gu said, "Don't disbelieve me, her manuscript is still in my sleeve. I'll show it to you."

As he said this, he took out two pieces of paper from his sleeve and handed them to Mr. Gu Liu.

Mr. Gu Liu quickly put down the wine cup in his hand and took a closer look.

The more I read, the more I admire it.

The more I read, the more I am amazed.

My fingers couldn't help but tremble slightly and the paper rustled.

Seeing this, Lord Gu smiled complacently, took it back, and carefully put it into his sleeve.

"Your third sister-in-law's talent and insight are unmatched. If it weren't for her support, we wouldn't have such a good life these days. Your third sister-in-law also contributed to the success of your poetry collection."

"Yes, yes, yes, I know everything. I'll toast to my third sister-in-law again."

Mr. Gu Liu poured himself another glass of wine and toasted him.

Before Qin Yuan took it, Lord Gu took it and drank it himself.

The corners of Gu Liuye's mouth twitched helplessly, and he drank it all in one gulp.

Qin Yuan shyly pushed Lord Gu lightly and said angrily, "What are you doing? I can't sit still when you praise me in front of so many people."

Lord Gu said, "How can I not praise you when I have such a wife?"

Qin Yuan lowered her head even lower.

Lord Gu took her hand and tilted his head to look at her and smiled. They both looked very good to begin with, and now both had flushed faces and affection flowing between their brows. They were as gorgeous as the morning glow and as bright as the bright moon. They were a perfect match.

Gu Liuye was so envious that his eyes were tired. Old Madam Gu, who was sitting at the top, also smiled and drank two more cups.

Aunt Rong also said, "Old Madam, look how loving the Marquis and his wife are."

It is not possible for an ordinary man to praise his wife in public.

Everyone can see that Lord Gu is fond of his wife.

"What a perfect match."

Without being persuaded, Mrs. Gu drank another glass.

After the banquet, Master Gu Liu was very drunk. Without saying a word to the concubines, he supported the servant and went back to the outer courtyard.

You and Geng had long since fallen out of favor, and they understood Mr. Gu Liu's character and had no expectations at all.

Aunt Zheng was looking forward to it, and Aunt Deng was worried.

That night, the two concubines sat in the courtyard, sighing to the moon and shedding tears in the wind.

Aunt Zheng sighed, "Why didn't the Sixth Master ask me to serve him? My lover's heart is so fickle. The vows we made to each other are still ringing in my ears, but he has been abandoned like an autumn fan. I am so miserable."

Aunt Deng said, "It's better to be a concubine of the Marquis than the Sixth Master. I was really blind at the beginning, and I fell in love with the Sixth Master's gentleness and kindness. The Marquis is a real man."

Gu Jinghui was not distracted and only cared about pestering Qin Yuan. Under the pretext of having something to say, he forced himself to go back to Wutong Garden with her.

"My Lord, aren't you going back to the outer study to rest?" Qin Yuan couldn't help but push away his drunken body. This man had drunk a little and wouldn't listen to anything she said.

"Don't go."

Gu Jinghui said with a big tongue: "I have a wife, why should I stay alone in an empty room?"

Hongye handed over the hot towel and couldn't help laughing: "Miss, the Marquis is still thinking about you even though he's drunk. Sixteen is not here, why not let the Marquis stay here for a night."

“Good Hongye, Hongye is very capable. The more capable you are, the more work you do. You are full of energy…” Gu Jinghui muttered.

Hongye was flattered and whispered, "Miss, it turns out that I am not bad in the Marquis' heart."

Qin Yuan: “…”

In his previous life, Lin Ziqi had often drunk and pretended to be crazy to achieve his goals.

Unexpectedly, Gu Jinghui was not honest either, and even pretended to be drunk to win people's hearts.

Qin Yuan rolled her eyes and pinched her nose, saying, "How can I change clothes when he's so drunk? I hate the smell of alcohol the most. I've used fragrance for several days but it still won't go away. If the Marquis doesn't leave, I'll have to help him move to the side room."

Gu Jinghui immediately said, “Hangover soup. I want to drink hangover soup. Go, I order you to bring me the hangover soup.”

Cui Ming went to the small kitchen to cook some hangover-relieving soup.

Gu Jinghui was clamoring for a bath again, wanting to use fragrant bath beans and soak flower petals, which made Hongye very upset.

Qin Yuan smiled and said, "Hongye, you are the most capable. The more capable you are, the more work you do. You are full of energy."

Hongye: "..."

When Cui Ming brought the hangover soup, Gu Jinghui had also washed up, changed his clothes, and sat upright on the bed, letting Qin Yuan fiddle with him.

Qin Yuan said, "Hurry up and finish drinking this hangover soup, and then let's get down to business."

Gu Jinghui laughed and said, “What’s wrong with you? You are totally different from usual.”

Qin Yuan raised her eyebrows, "You are drunk and confused, so naturally you think I am different from usual."

Gu Jinghui drank the hangover soup from her hand, then leaned back on the pillow with his eyes half closed to rest. After she finished washing, he said, “I was a little drunk just now.”
