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

Chapter 322: Nantang Master
After Lord Gu and his wife left, Madam Gu said to Aunt Rong, "The third child still doesn't understand."

Aunt Rong asked, "What do you mean?"

"Isn't this obvious? The little girl from the Chang family is probably thinking of something else, but the third brother is thinking of something else."

Rong Mama couldn't help but laugh and said, "That's good. Now that I think about it, this person is too smart and easily distracted. The Marquis has finally opened up his mind and is only focused on the Madam. He is much less troubled than others. If the Marquis is not like this, he won't be able to accomplish great things."

"But wasn't he almost plotted against by the Zhao family?"

"It can be seen that every advantage has its disadvantages, and the Marquis is not a perfect person either."

Madam Gu laughed and said, "You old fool, I've let you finish your words."

Rong Mama stopped smiling and asked, "Madam, did the Chang family really surrender to Queen Lin?"

Madam Gu shook her head and said, "I don't know, but the Crown Prince and the Ninth Princess are now taking care of Chang Qingling. In our eyes, it's really disgusting."

"Isn't it..."

Aunt Rong frowned.

As soon as Qin Yuan and Lord Gu left the upper room, Gu Shiliu came to invite them in, saying, "Sixth Master said he has something important to discuss with Lord and Madam in the front hall."

Qin Yuan didn't guess what they were going to talk about in the front hall. Lord Gu held her hand tightly and said, "It's okay. You and I can just walk over there slowly. Just treat it as a way to digest food."

The two walked in silence for a while.

Lord Gu suddenly said, "Counting the days, it has been several days since the smallpox lady was sent away."

Qin Yuan's heart skipped a beat, her face was burning, and she forced out a voice from her throat: "I have been so tired from working these past two days that I even forgot to count the days."

Lord Gu looked helpless.

"You also heard what mother said. Mother suspected that her husband was sick and that was why she didn't consummate the marriage. Think about it, we have been married for several months. If others knew about this, would they laugh at me for being incompetent?"

He was greatly provoked by Brigadier General Jin today.

Jin, the lieutenant general, took the opportunity to ask him about the precious book. He said it was OK. Jin, the lieutenant general, said, "This is the result of my years of experience and the essence of my ancestors' inheritance. I have broken countless hairs off to write it. How can you dismiss it with just one word, Lord Marquis?"

In Gu Jinghui's eyes, this book was indeed only passable.

Although his wife seemed to be affectionate towards him, she could never get over that hurdle.

He wondered in his heart whether his young wife had to go along with him because of their status as husband and wife, or whether his young wife was still young and had not yet figured it out, so he could only take it slow.

Facing Admiral Jin's pressing questioning, Gu Jinghui showed an incomprehensible expression on his face.

Lieutenant General Jin suddenly realized and said, "Could it be that Madam is not happy with the relationship between men and women? It seems that the Marquis needs to work harder. If the relationship between men and women is not harmonious, love will also be discounted."

Gu Jinghui didn’t understand what he heard at first, but when he saw Adjutant General Jin’s secretive look, he thought of a possibility and said angrily, “What are you making random guesses about?”

When he said this, Admiral Jin became more and more confused, and said with an inexplicable look: "Don't worry, my lord, I will think of a way."

When Brigadier General Jin left, his bulky and heavy figure seemed a little listless and panicked.

Gu Jinghui was very upset, but he couldn't explain it, nor could he get angry.

If you don't get angry, people will just be suspicious in their own heads.

If he gets angry, people won't have to suspect anything and will just confirm it.

He had been feeling irritated for a long time, and after hearing what my mother had to say today, Lord Gu couldn't help but reveal his true feelings to his young wife under the moonlight.

Qin Yuan had never thought that such words could be spoken so bluntly from Lord Gu's mouth. Her face immediately turned red, her face felt hot, and her throat was choked and she couldn't speak.

Lord Gu saw her head lowered, lowered to the lowest point, with the roots of her ears exposed and red, so he stretched out his fingers to lift her chin, and looked at her closely in the light of the lamp and the moon. His sight followed her slender and charming eyebrows, which were covered with a layer of misty cold stars, and came to her delicate red lips, and Lord Gu could not help but kiss her heavily.

Qin Yuan collapsed in his arms.

Hongye and Gu Shiliu had already moved far away.

Gu Shiliu didn't dare to speak.

Hongye covered her eyes and dared not look, she only asked softly: "Sixth Master is still waiting, do you want to ask."

Gu Shiliu: “…”

Their Lord has sharp ears and eyes, I'm afraid he has heard it a long time ago.

The waning moon slowly drifted into the clouds.

It got dark around me.

A few stars twinkled faintly.

Lord Gu finally remembered that he still had something to discuss. He took Qin Yuan, whose lips were rosy and eyes were hazy, into his arms and said dissatisfiedly, "Old Sixth, you better have something important to discuss."

By the time they arrived at the front hall, Qin Yuan had regained her dignified demeanor. Gu Liuye came up to greet her and said with a smile, "Brother and sister-in-law are finally here. We were discussing poetry."

Gu Jinghui: “…”

Gu Liuye did not bother to look at his third brother's expression, and only said to Qin Yuan: "Third sister-in-law, Mr. Songshan is a great talent. His discussion of poetry just now made me feel itchy. I heard that third sister-in-law has a sharp talent for poetry. How about we watch fireflies and write poems together tonight while everyone is here?"

Qin Yuan glanced at Lord Gu, whose face was a little dark, and declined with a smile: "If I were to make a few comments, it would be fine, but if I were to write a poem, it would be like a firefly competing with the bright moon."

Mr. Gu Liu looked in the direction of Qin Jijiu.

Qin Siyuan said: "Sister, why do you have to be so modest? We are all family here."

Qin Jijiu said with a smile: "I heard from your brother that Siyuan's recent poetry talent is due to your guidance. You can easily do what your father can't do. You really shouldn't hide it from your family. It's a rare opportunity for Mr. Songshan to be here today. If you miss it, it will be difficult for you to have this opportunity again in the future."

Mr. Songshan said quickly, "Master Jijiu, I am really overwhelmed by your kindness."

Seeing that Qin Yuan was somewhat moved, Gu Jinghui said, “Madam has been very tired these past few days, why don’t we relax together? I also want to see Madam compose a poem.”

Qin Yuan smiled and said, "In that case, I will dare to show my ugliness. However, I am a woman, so I have to choose a name when I write poems. Even if it is spread out, others will not guess it is me."

Qin Jijiu said: "It doesn't matter if you guess. Many women's poems are engraved and sold, and widely circulated. What's wrong with that?"

Qin Yuan smiled but said nothing.

Qin Siyuan asked: "What number?"

Qin Yuan thought for a moment and said, "I like the lotus in Wutong Garden the most. I'll take the name Nantang from the line 'Picking lotus in Nantang in autumn, the lotus flowers are taller than people'. How about calling me Nantang Gongzi?"

Qin Jijiu couldn't help laughing: "I thought you were going to marry someone like Lotus Master."

Qin Yuan also laughed: "That was all caused by me when I was a kid. Dad, please stop making fun of me."

Qin Siyuan clapped his hands and said, "This name of Young Master Nantang is very good. If the world knew about my sister's talent, they would never think that Young Master Pianpian is a beautiful woman."

Mr. Songshan was silent, as if thinking about something.

Gu Jinghui concealed his surprise and said, “Yes, very good. I think the lotus pond in Wutong Garden should be called Nantang.”

Brigadier General Jin once said that there are five qualities that can win a woman's heart: Pan, Donkey, Deng, Xiao and Xian. He boasted that he possessed the first three qualities, but he would have to work with Xiao and Xian slowly.
