My name is Chang An, your name is Gu Li

After the summer solstice, the weather gradually became hotter, and Gu Li saw Chang An off to the door as usual. Unlike usual, Gu Li also had a bamboo tube filled with water in his hand today.

"It's hot now, Chang Lang must remember to drink more water."

As he said this, Gu Li seemed to be afraid that Chang An would be worried, so he directly put the water bottle in Chang An's hand. Then he said seriously:

"Huaiqin will help me supervise Chang Lang. I will check the Imperial College after school. If Chang Lang doesn't finish drinking the water in the water bottle, I will punish him."

"Okay, I'll drink it all without leaving any." Chang An smiled and pinched Gu Li's face, then kissed her goodbye.

"Chang Lang, be careful on the road and remember to come back early!"

"I will."

Chang An climbed onto the carriage and disappeared from Gu Li's sight. She watched Chang An's carriage go away reluctantly, and only returned to the mansion after it disappeared from her sight.

Today, Chang Qi and her sister are still going to teach Gu Li how to knit clothes, or to be more precise, bottoms. Last time, Gu Li had already made a complete set of children's clothes, so this time they are going to learn how to knit pants.

Because pants and clothes are different, she had to start all over again with the measurement and cutting steps. But with her previous experience, she was able to quickly control the size of each cut, and the subsequent cutting shapes were also handled quickly, almost in one go.

After a while, Gu Li quickly sewed a complete pair of pants, and then asked, "Sister Qi, how is my work?"

The quiet Chang Qi just nodded, and her sister Chang Qi answered on her behalf: "Sanniang did a good job."

Gu Li laughed twice, and then Chang Qi continued, "Sister Sanniang can already make the lower garment today. You can practice and get familiar with it first. We two sisters will not bother you any more."

"Okay, you guys can leave first." Gu Li nodded and let them leave.

The two sisters Chang Qi and Chang Qi bowed slightly to Gu Li and left. Gu Li stayed alone in the yard to pack his things, and after packing, he went back to the house.

Because Gu Li put the woven basket next to the dressing table, she could sit in front of the dressing table as soon as she put the woven basket away.

She sat in front of the dressing table, looking at herself without makeup. As she looked, she inexplicably moved closer to the mirror and looked at her face carefully.

My face is clean and white, because I stay at home and have no guests, so I don't wear makeup. But I look pretty good without makeup.

She carefully examined her face, which was clean and without any inappropriate things. She stretched out her hand and pinched it, which felt very comfortable. She rubbed it with the back of her hand, which also felt good.

But now, Gu Li had an inexplicable feeling in her heart, which made her feel very strange. Then she raised her hand again and looked at it carefully.

These little hands were still very pure and delicate, with only some tiny marks on the fingertips from needlework, and nothing else.

She touched her raised hand with her other hand and felt that it was still very good. She put it close to her nose and sniffed it, but still couldn't smell the fragrance that her husband had described.

At this time, just when Gu Li was feeling a little bored, Zhen'er came in and said, "Sanniang, Madam Cui is here."

Gu Li then raised his head and looked in the direction of Zhen'er. Sure enough, Cui Yu was standing behind Zhen'er, looking at him with smiling eyes.

"Madam Gu."

"Madam Cui." After Gu Li exchanged greetings with the other party, he left the dressing table and sat down in front of the low table, greeting her warmly, "Madam Cui, please take a seat."

"Thank you, Madam Gu." Cui Yu smiled, nodded slightly to Gu Li, and sat down directly.

Gu Li then ordered Zhen'er to fetch some rock sugar and snow pears, and then asked, "How is Madam Cui's health these days? How did you find time to come to my place?"

I don't know if it's because of Chang An and Wang Wei's suggestion last time, Cui Yu now eats meat every meal and looks rosy. With Uncle Qian and Aunt Xu helping with household affairs, she is naturally much more relaxed, so she has time to come here today.

"Now I am alone at home with nothing to do, so I wanted to find someone to talk to, so I came to look for you, Madam Gu." Cui Yu smiled and said, "Where is Madam Gu? How are you these days?"

"That's good. I can learn to make clothes when I have nothing to do every day." Gu Li said.

Zhen'er quickly brought up the candied pear and then left. Afterwards, Gu Li looked at Cui Yu's blushing face and suddenly asked, "Madam Cui, I want to ask you something."

Cui Yu nodded and said, "Madam Gu, please ask."

"That's it..." Gu Li seemed a little overwhelmed at this moment, and then hesitated for a long time before speaking: "Ms. Cui, look at me, have I become uglier?"

Cui Yu was stunned at this moment, and asked with a bit of amusement: "Mrs. Gu has always been so beautiful, why are you asking this?"

"Chang Lang is so good, he's handsome and talented. I'm afraid that I won't be good-looking after having Xiaoguai, and that will embarrass Chang Lang. I don't want Chang Lang to be embarrassed and talked about behind his back." Gu Li said worriedly.

"How could that be?" Cui Yu said gently, "Madam Gu has always been so beautiful, how could she become ugly? If you don't believe me, you can just wait until Mr. Chang finishes his class at the Imperial College and ask him. Even if you don't believe me, you will believe Mr. Chang, right?"

"Besides, even if you really become ugly, Mr. Chang will never dislike Madam Gu. If someone points fingers at you, Mr. Chang will definitely know that those people are talking about you. In that case, how can he let those people continue to point fingers at you?"

Gu Li pursed his lips at this time, seeming a little depressed, and said: "But if I ask Chang Lang, he will definitely worry about me. I don't want Chang Lang to be so hard and care about my insignificant little thoughts."

"No, you have to have confidence in Mr. Chang." Cui Yu then pulled Gu Li's hand and squeezed it gently.

"But I feel like this might be a bit unreasonable?" Gu Li frowned and asked worriedly.

"How is that possible? If you are worried, Madam Gu, why don't I stay here for a while and I will ask Mr. Chang for you? How about that?" Cui Yu said again.

"this......"

......

At noon, at the same time as before, Chang An's carriage returned to the gate of Dingkang Marquis's mansion. When he got off the carriage, he was stunned for a moment - besides Gu Li, there was also Cui Yu standing at the gate.

"Mother Gu, I'm back."

"Chang Lang, you're back."

Chang An walked up and found that Gu Li seemed a little strange at this time, so he asked: "What's wrong, Gu Niang? Did something happen?"

"No...no."

Gu Li shook his head and pulled him into the house, and Cui Yu naturally followed. But Chang An cast his eyes on Cui Yu who was standing aside. When they reached the yard, Chang An simply handed the book box to Huai Qin, and then took Gu Li back to the house.

"What's wrong, Mother Gu? What happened? Why are you so depressed?" Chang An didn't care that Cui Yu was right beside them. He just grabbed Gu Li's waist and lifted her into his arms.

"I...I..." But Gu Li was very hesitant and couldn't say anything clearly.

Chang An had no choice but to turn his attention to Cui Yu and asked, "Madam Cui, what's happening to my Madam Gu?"

"Madam Gu is anxious." Cui Yu smiled and replied, "Madam Gu also wants to ask you, is she..."

"Oh, Madam Cui!"

Gu Li fluttered twice in Chang An's arms, interrupting Cui Yu's words, and then bit his lips gently. After hesitating for a long time, he finally turned around in Chang An's arms and said:

"Tsunero..."

"uh-huh?"

"Have I become ugly?" Gu Li hesitated and finally uttered the words.

Hearing this question, Chang An was stunned for a moment, then blinked, frowned slightly, and began to carefully look at the face of the person in front of him.

After looking at her for a while, he raised his hand and pinched her cheek, twisting his fingers. Then he took one of her little hands and put it to his nose, sniffing it carefully.

Seeing Chang An's many movements and frowning brows, Gu Li couldn't help but get a little nervous, and his mind began to wander:

"I won't really become ugly, will I?"

"Will Chang Lang no longer like me?"

And so on.

Then Chang An put his hand on Gu Li's forehead again, and felt that everything was normal, so he asked in confusion: "Mother Gu doesn't have a fever either? Why do you ask such a question?"

"Ah?" Gu Li was stunned for a moment. She never expected Chang An to answer like this.

"Mother Gu is still very beautiful, with fragrant hands. Why are you asking this? Did someone say something bad about Mother Gu?" Chang An said.

"No, I just thought so..." Gu Li said, "I'm just afraid that if one day I become ugly and ugly, I will embarrass Chang Lang."

Chang An smiled and pinched her cheek, saying, "How is that possible? Gu Niang is so pretty and well-educated. When she stands next to me, she almost overshadows me. How could she possibly embarrass Chang Lang?"

Gu Li felt a little embarrassed by the compliment, but still asked, "Is what Chang Lang said true?"

"Is it true that I haven't become ugly?"
