Chapter 277 Master Gu Liu's Realm
Lord Gu burped, shook Lord Xu's hand, and said, "When the emperor copies it, you will know that I didn't write much in the memorial. It just said how the mansion has been spending these days, and also gave the emperor a prescription that he bought at a high price, which can prevent and treat the epidemic."

Lord Xu didn't quite believe it. Although it hurt a lot from being held, he was still drunk and just shook his head with hazy eyes.

Butler Han arranged the carriages, lined them up in a row, and sent them back one by one.

The Xu family didn't pay much attention to Mr. Gu Liu throughout the whole process.

They were so reluctant to say goodbye as if Lord Gu was their brother-in-law.

Qin Yuan felt sorry for Master Gu Liu.

Gu Liuye didn't take it seriously, and only said to the servant privately: "They look down on people. When my poetry and painting collections sell well and become famous in Beijing, they will line up to ask me for favors. But I will never pay attention to them. After all, they are all rough people. As the saying goes, people with different ideals cannot work together. But I won't blame them either."

Then he continued to bury himself in reading poetry and painting.

It seemed that the Xu family's visit was like a drizzle to him, which didn't even wet the ground.

It's over once it's over.

When Qin Yuan heard this, she couldn't help but laugh, and she also felt a little admiration for Master Gu Liu.

Hongye sighed, "Ordinary people really can't reach the level of Sixth Master."

Cui Ming said, "That's right. The Sixth Master went to the Sixth Madam's yard with the Xu family. He was like a shadow. I felt uncomfortable watching him, but he didn't care."

Hongye said: "In the past few years, the Xu family has also gained a lot of benefits from the Marquis' Mansion, but they still look down on others."

Qin Yuan said: "The Xu family may only think that it is the Sixth Madam's ability, and instead despise the Sixth Master for his incompetence."

"It is true that good people are often bullied, and good horses are often ridden."

Cui Ming was inspired by this.

Qin Yuan said: "It doesn't matter. Sixth Master doesn't like the Xu family either. It's true that people with different ideals cannot work together. Sixth Master likes literature, while the Xu family likes martial arts, and they look down on each other."

Madam Gu Liu did not live long.

In the future, Mr. Gu Liu’s interactions with the Xu family will mostly be for the sake of the children.

But there is no need to say these words.

As they were talking, the Xiangfei bamboo curtain sounded outside, and then Gu Jinghui walked in with a red face and a smell of alcohol. His sharp eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and he said in a muffled voice: "Madam, I have a headache."

Qin Yuan greeted him with a smile and helped him sit down on the Arhat bed.

Lord Gu leaned on her and groaned, "Why did you come back so soon? You didn't even wait for me."

Qin Yuan said: "Mrs. Xu is unhappy, and I don't want to be disliked."

"It's really tiring to deal with so many people," Lord Gu put his arm around Qin Yuan's waist, put his face close to her neck, and whispered, "Let me lean on you."

The heat and alcohol rushed over.

Qin Yuan's face suddenly felt hot, but she didn't push him away. She just glanced shyly at the maid in the room.

Cuiming hurried to cook a hangover soup.

Hongye asked, "Should we make the bed so that the Marquis can lie down for a while?"

Qin Yuan looked at the hourglass.

"No need. Someone will come later. There are many people looking for you today. I'm afraid you won't be able to lie still for long."

Hongye retreated and told the maids to stand guard outside the door and listen to the noise inside so that they could serve conveniently.

Cui Ming came back from cooking the hangover soup and stood outside the door, asking, "Madam, the hangover soup is ready, shall we bring it in?"

After a while, I heard someone shouting from inside, "Bring it in."

The little maid hurriedly opened the curtain for her, and Cui Ming walked into the room carrying the tray.

Lord Gu was sitting crookedly, his handsome face full of lust, while Qin Yuan was leaning sideways on the Arhat bed, her clothes already had many suspicious wrinkles.

Cui Ming's heart skipped a beat and she dared not look any further, hesitating to move forward.

Lord Gu was in a very good mood. He said, "Just leave it there." There was some joy in his voice, like a spring breeze blowing on your face.

Cui Ming quickly placed the tray on the table and walked out.

As soon as the others left, Lord Gu leaned over again, picked up Qin Yuan, and kissed her face randomly. Qin Yuan said angrily, "You reek of alcohol. It's so pungent."

She felt limp and had no strength at all.

The voice that came out was also weak and languid.

It doesn't sound like a complaint, but more like she's whispering and acting coquettish.

Lord Gu took advantage of the alcohol and kneaded her, not wanting to separate, but he didn't continue. After a long time, he said in a hoarse voice: "Good Yuan'er, wait until I rinse my mouth tonight before coming again, okay?"

Qin Yuan: “…”

Seeing that she remained silent, Gu Jinghui smiled annoyingly and said, “I know.”

Qin Yuan couldn't raise her head anymore.

Gu Shiliu's voice came from outside: "Miss Hongye, the Marquis is feeling better now."

Hongye replied in a low voice.

"Maybe he's still resting."

Gu Shiliu said, "Could you trouble Miss Hongye to go in and take a look? A lot of invitations have been handed in from outside, all of which are invitations to come to the Marquis's mansion to pay a visit to the Marquis. Didn't the Marquis ask the old lady for some news about the family? They are all here."

Lord Gu spoke up and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go to the outer courtyard after I change my clothes."

Gu Shiliu responded from outside.

Lord Gu was reluctant to leave, and sighed, saying, "Why can't I take a break for a day?"

Qin Yuan slowly stood up, raised her slender hands to tidy up her hair, and said with a smile: "The Marquis and the Sixth Master have become more talented in poetry since they are living outside."

Lord Gu snorted and said, "Don't try to trick me into living outside again. My sixth brother's wife is ill, and he has no other options."

Qin Yuan also sneered.

Who doesn't know?

Mr. Gu Liu has so many concubines.

Lord Gu got up to drink the hangover soup, and Qin Yuan opened the boxes to look for clothes for him. She picked up a sapphire blue straight shirt and found a stone blue purse, stuffing some refreshing pills into it.

Lord Gu saw this and felt very happy. If it was not too late, he really wanted to ask his little wife to help him change his clothes.

I haven't been close to her for quite a while, so just a short while won't be enough.

Qin Yuan added, "There should be some hot water in the kitchenette. I'll ask them to get some. You should take a shower quickly before leaving. Otherwise, it's not appropriate to meet guests for the whole afternoon and smell of alcohol."

As she spoke, she ordered the maids to fetch water.

Gu Jinghui sighed: "Madam is really thoughtful. When I was alone, I did whatever was convenient for me."

This is the benefit he gets from his wife, and someone will take care of him everywhere.

Qin Yuan asked: "What other social activities do you have today?"

Gu Jinghui said, "The King of Qi sent an invitation, wanting to chat. We have been sealed for such a long time, and the affairs of the camp are all supported by General Jin and others. Old friends also sent letters, so they have to say something. My father-in-law also sent a letter saying that he will come to visit the mansion tomorrow. I also submitted a memorial, begging to enter the palace to express my gratitude, but there has been no news from the palace so far, and I am not sure when it will be."

Qin Yuan asked softly, "Is it the Imperial College Muxiu tomorrow?"

Gu Jinghui said: “Yes.”

"Then tomorrow will be quite lively."

Qin Heng had always been thinking about riding horses with Gu Jinghui. The two children of Master Liu were also about to return from the Imperial College. They had been in the Imperial College for so long, and he wondered how sad Madam Gu Liu would be when she saw them.

"I'm only thinking about tonight, and I'll talk about tomorrow's affairs tomorrow," Lord Gu said with anticipation, chuckling at Qin Yuan.
