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

Chapter 300 Imagine
After dinner, Gu Jinghui forced himself to talk for a while before returning to Wutong Garden.

The twins also left.

Madam Gu couldn't help but sigh under the light and said, "Could it be that Brother Hui has changed his mind again?"

I don’t know who taught those two kids to say these words, but they sounded so sad.

Rong Mama came forward, gently opened the incense burner, shoveled away the ashes, put in the incense balls, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, old lady, don't you still have the Madam?"

"Yes," Madam Gu clutched the rosary tightly, her voice becoming much lighter as she said, "God is truly merciful, giving Hui Ge'er such a good wife."

A smile broke out on Rong Mama's old face.

Gu Jinghui walked quickly with his hands behind his back. When he returned to Wutong Garden, the main room was silent and no one was talking. Mo Zhu, who was guarding outside the door, wanted to report, but was stopped by him.

Gently pulling aside the curtain, he saw Qin Yuan lying on the Luohan bed, reading Mr. Songshan's poems. The bright light enveloped her gently, and her black hair was like soft and dense water plants entwined together, spreading down and entangling Lord Gu's heart.

The unspeakable depression in my body dissipated.

He walked forward gently, bent over and held Qin Yuan's slender hand, and said softly: "Although it is still hot now, it is a little cool at night. Isn't it cold to lie on this ivory mat?"

Qin Yuan laughed in horror and turned his head away.

"Why did you come back without making any noise? You scared me."

Glancing at Gu Jinghui's expression, she put away her smile, put down the poem, and asked, "My husband, is there anything on your mind?"

Lord Gu sat to one side, holding her hand and playing with it carefully, without looking at her, lowering his head and chuckling softly, "Why do you say that, Madam?"

Qin Yuan sat up and chuckled, "My husband seems to have a depressed look on his face. Is it because of the twins?"

Lord Gu nodded.

"Yuan'er is smart, nothing can be hidden from you."

Qin Yuan said: "It is only because the Marquis did not hide it from Yuan'er that Yuan'er could know it."

It is true that she is intelligent, but this can only be achieved if the Marquis Gu has no defenses against her and does not avoid her at all.

Lord Gu held her hand tighter: "You and I are husband and wife, why would you hide it? I really didn't expect..."

Hesitant to speak.

Qin Yuan did not respond, but waited silently for his next words.

"As the saying goes, eight out of ten things in life are not what you want. I should have gotten used to separation and disappointment. It is common for efforts to go unrewarded and trust to be betrayed. In a war, besides being brave and able to fight, you also need strategies. No matter why, a defeat is a defeat."

Qin Yuan nodded.

Bitterness is the norm, so people expect some sweetness.

How bitter it is to pay the wrong price, but you have to swallow it. Life is always filled with countless wrong prices and unexpected gains.

Gu Jinghui's voice was filled with confusion, exhaustion, and helplessness.

"But now... even the child I watched grow up..."

Gu Jinghui couldn’t continue.

Qin Yuan stroked his back silently.

The room was quiet for a while, and Lord Gu said, "I should have gotten used to it, right?"

Qin Yuan suddenly felt a little sad.

"My Lord, if you hesitate to make a decision, you will end up in chaos. The affairs of the family and the country cannot be missed."

Lord Gu hugged her and said in a deep voice, "You are right."

Qin Yuan knew in her heart that Lord Gu knew what to do, but he just couldn't bear to do it.

But after today, using the twins to lure out Zhao is inevitable.

The two of them hugged each other quietly, a faint fragrance wafted in the air in the house, and the sounds of insects and frogs could be heard outside.

The long hair was scattered and tangled together, as if inseparable.

I don’t know how long it took, but I heard the chirping sound of red leaves outside.

Gu Jinghui suddenly said, “Yuan’er, how about we go catch fireflies?” Although Qin Yuan didn’t really want to move, she didn’t want to spoil the fun either, so she said, “Then let’s go.”

Gu Jinghui immediately stood up, took Qin Yuan’s hand, opened the curtain himself, and walked out side by side.

Hongye and Mozhu, who were standing outside and talking, were stunned.

Hongye asked: "...Where are you going with your wife?"

Lord Gu said, "Let's walk around, don't follow us."

Qin Yuan had to ask: "Where are the fireflies?"

Hongye couldn't help laughing and said, "Oh, so the Marquis wants to take Madam to catch fireflies. We need a bag to hold them, otherwise they will fly away. And do we need to use that small net to catch them? Otherwise, how can Madam catch them?"

Lord Gu had been catching fireflies for who knows how many years. Hearing this, he asked, "Then... where can we find the bag?"

Hongye said, "My Lord and Madam, please go ahead. I will bring it back as soon as I find it."

Lord Gu praised fiercely: "I know Hongye is the most capable, there is nothing wrong with entrusting things to you."

Hongye: "...Hehe..."

Qin Yuan said: "Then let's go."

Hongye asked again: "Where can we catch it?"

Gu Jinghui couldn't answer.

Hongye said: "Fireflies are usually found in the grass near the water, in dark and humid places."

Gu Jinghui thought about it and suddenly whistled.

The sound cracked the brocade clouds.

After a while, a response came.

Gu Jinghui said, “Let’s go catch them behind the Taihu rock rockery. There is a small pond nearby, which is where the fireflies are densely populated.”

After saying that, he took Qin Yuan and left.

Mo Zhu quickly handed over a sheep-horn lantern and said, "My Lord, this one is resistant to falling and bumping. Use this to illuminate the room."

Gu Jinghui took the lamp, held Qin Yuan's hand, and walked out of the yard.

Qin Yuan asked, "My husband was just asking the guards in the mansion where the fireflies gathered?"

Gu Jinghui responded.

Qin Yuan smiled: "The guards won't privately think that the Marquis is not doing his job."

Gu Jinghui snorted and laughed, and said, "What is the business? Isn't carrying on the family line the business?"

Qin Yuan's face turned red immediately.

I couldn't help but think to myself: "A warrior is a warrior."

Seeing that she didn’t say anything, Gu Jinghui continued, “I wonder what kind of bag Hongye can find to hold the fireflies. When I was a kid, I used to make bags out of plain silk and put them in the tent. They glowed beautifully.”

Qin Yuan said, "When I was a child, I used a small bag made of plain gauze. My father was in mourning and I was in my hometown. My cousins ​​played together and I got one and hung it on the top of the tent. Later, when we returned to the capital, the house was too small and my mother didn't like us to play with it, so we never played with it again."

After getting married, Lin's mother couldn't stand her doing these things, and later when her child died, she lost interest in it.

Lord Gu held her hand tightly with heartache, "Yuan'er, you suffered a lot when you were a child. I will make it up to you."

His young wife was so much younger than him that he couldn't help but feel pity and love for her.

If he had a daughter like this, he would definitely let her live in a honey pot since childhood.

"If we have a daughter in the future, we will definitely not let her marry out of a high status. We will find a suitable family and hold her in the palm of our hands, and she will not suffer any grievances."

Qin Yuan felt the evening breeze and listened to Lord Gu's fantasies floating in the breeze. Suddenly, an indescribable warmth surged in her heart.

Lord Gu continued to fantasize: "We also need to have a few sons to support our daughters. If the son-in-law is disobedient, the sons can go to the husband's family and teach them a lesson."

Qin Yuan: “……?”
