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

Chapter 78 I like it very much

The maid outside whispered, "Madam, do you want to send in the hangover soup?"

Qin Yuan asked softly, "Would you like to drink some hangover soup? Otherwise you'll have a headache later, and you still have to go to the camp tomorrow."

Lord Gu was very pleased with the gentle words, tenderness and consideration. He said, "The hangover soup doesn't taste good. I don't like it. Why don't you feed me? I heard that the wife of Admiral Jin served him like this."

Brigadier General Jin often nagging in his ear about the benefits of having a loving wife and concubines to care for him.

He was not envious.

Just after marrying Qin Yuan, for some reason, he couldn't help but want to surpass General Jin.

Qin Yuan quietly rolled her eyes and smiled, "Okay, then you have to get up and lean on the pillow, otherwise it will all spill onto the bed and you won't be comfortable sleeping."

Hearing this, Gu Jinghui felt so happy that he felt as if he had galloped for hundreds of miles under the scorching sun and drank iced cherry yogurt. Every pore in his body felt relaxed and refreshed, and he felt light and happy.

All the things that were accumulated in my heart disappeared.

"Send it in."

Seeing that he had no objection, Qin Yuan called the maid in.

Unexpectedly, the person who came in was Hongye.

Hongye's eyes were full of smiles, and she diligently brought the hangover soup to the bedside.

"Go back, the lady is enough here."

Gu Jinghui quickly spoke up and chased Hongye out.

Hongye: "..."

I originally wanted to say something, but Lord Gu didn't give me the chance at all.

Qin Yuan smiled and said, "I'll call you later. Go ask if Cui Ming's cold noodles are ready. The Marquis will be dining at home tonight. Let him try the cold noodles made in the small kitchen."

Hongye responded, put the tray on the table and walked out.

Qin Yuan picked up the soup bowl and turned around, only to find that Gu Jinghui was already leaning on the pillow, with the corners of his lips slightly raised and his eyebrows and eyes curved, waiting for her.

Kitchenette.

Hongye whispered to Cuiming, "Tsk tsk, didn't you see how clingy the Marquis was to the young lady? I was chased out before I even put down the tray."

Cui Ming chuckled.

Hongye added: "It's time to consummate the marriage, otherwise we'll have to wait another ten days."

Cui Ming said nothing.

After Hongye finished worrying about whether the two were going to consummate their marriage, she asked, "Do you know who I met when I was out and about?"

"Who?" Cui Ming spoke up this time.

"It's Mr. and Mrs. Qian. They were very enthusiastic when they saw me. They even asked me to ask the lady if I could also share in the purchase of pepper."

"Oh."

"Let me tell you, they stopped me and said a lot of things. Their words were all about how Bai Que was sent to Wutong Garden by someone else, how the Marquis wanted to marry Bai Que because of the Qian family's reputation, and how the wishful thinking of Madam Zhao had made a wrong decision, etc. There were several housekeepers around listening, and they kept saying nice things to me."

"Mr. Qian is really efficient."

Cuiming admired the way Qian and his wife did things, they made decisions decisively and without any ambiguity.

"I heard that Qian Da's ancestors followed the old master to the battlefield and carried the old master out from the pile of dead bodies. Along the way, the enemy soldiers searched everywhere but couldn't find them. They suffered a lot and even drank urine. So Qian Da is very respectable in front of the master. The treasury of the mansion is given to him to manage."

Cui Ming said, "That's right. Otherwise, why would Miss worry that Mr. and Mrs. Qian would blame you and think of ways to resolve the situation?" Hong Ye said with lingering fear, "Yes, offending such a person is equivalent to offending the wet nurse beside Madam Qin."

The wet nurse beside Cui was very powerful. If she found any mistake, she would skin the person alive even if he didn't die.

Cui Ming reminded, "The Marquis' Mansion is different from the Qin Mansion. You should ask around. We should be careful in handling things, lest we don't know the details and offend someone or how we offended them. We will die without knowing how we died, and we will also implicate the young lady."

Hongye nodded heavily.

After they chatted for a while, they were called in and told that the Marquis wanted to try the cold noodles made in the kitchenette.

When the cold noodles were served, dinner from the main kitchen was also delivered.

Gu Jinghui had washed and combed his hair again, and changed into a casual green gauze suit. His hair was loose, with only a small strand of it braided into a small braid with a bead hanging to hold it down.

Qin Yuan also changed into loose home clothes and took off her hair accessories, only tying her hair with a brocade headband.

The incense was relit in the room, and the two sat close together, looking a little closer than during the day.

Looking at the table full of dishes, Gu Jinghui said, “I just said today that the King of Qi is extravagant. He would order more than a dozen dishes whenever he went out. What we couldn’t finish at home was distributed to the maids and servants. We should save resources. Yuan’er did a great job.”

The ancestors of noble families always like to teach their descendants that wealth and honor are not easy to come by, and like to say the word "cherish blessings", meaning that they should cherish the wealth and honor that their ancestors earned with their lives, so that their descendants will not be arrogant and extravagant, and destroy the foundation.

In the past few days, Gu Jinghui was very impressed with what Qin Yuan had done.

There was admiration in his eyes as he looked at Qin Yuan.

Qin Yuan was stunned, then smiled and said, "My father's salary is low, and he has no other way to make money. He can only rely on the tributes during the two festivals and the gifts from the students who were sent abroad when they returned to Beijing to support the family. My stepmother is very frugal and we have just entered a wealthy family, so we can't bear to see so many good things wasted."

Although he likes to enjoy life, Qin Yuan also knows how to cherish it.

Of course she enjoys herself, but she won't waste things for no reason.

Hearing this, Gu Jinghui pulled Qin Yuan's jade-white, tender little hand over with a distressed look, held it in his hand, and said softly, "I'm sorry for making you suffer."

"My husband has been fighting on the frontier for many years. Isn't it very hard?"

"I am a man and a military commander. I have practiced martial arts since I was a child, which makes me different from you."

Gu Jinghui looked at his obedient wife and said, "You are so weak, you should eat more. In Saibei, regardless of gender, everyone is healthy and fit and can eat and drink."

My wife is so delicate and fragile that she might be blown away by a strong wind from the northern border.

Qin Yuan did not comment, but changed the subject and asked, "I heard that women in Saibei often show up in public, and some even go into battle to kill the enemy?"

Gu Jinghui nodded.

"Border residents are not like people in the capital. They don't have so many rules. Women talk and act the same as men. Many women are even more capable than men."

"I have seen two women who are better at horse riding than men. They can shoot arrows through a target from a hundred paces away. If there were women generals in the army, I would really like to include them in the women's team."

Qin Yuan smiled lightly and said, "Most men in the world look down on women like this. Your husband's knowledge is much higher than theirs. Those sour scholars would like to keep women at home, squatting in the embroidery building, knowing nothing, and they also say nonsense that women are virtuous if they have no talent. My father is well-versed in poetry and books, but he is also well-versed in the world and is definitely not like that, so I followed him to read a lot of books. Your husband is as knowledgeable as my father, and Yuan'er really likes him very much."

Gu Jinghui's eyes sparkled when he heard this, and he asked happily, "Is Yuan'er really like this?"

"Of course it's true."

Qin Yuan had the food saved and the extra food distributed to the servants. He also specifically ordered, "Give more meat dishes to the servant next to the Marquis. He accompanied the Marquis today and he was tired."

Hongye, Cuiming and the others were having their own meals outside, while the two of them ate slowly together, feeling warm and comfortable, just like the life he had always expected for a young married couple.

Lord Gu regrets that his honeymoon leave is too short, as he will have to go to the camp for duty tomorrow. He looked at Qin Yuan's pretty face under the light, and his Adam's apple couldn't help but roll a few times.
