My name is Chang An, your name is Gu Li

Cui Yu and the two Chang sisters suddenly looked serious at this moment, fearing that Gu Li would suddenly lose his spirit like he did yesterday.

But Gu Li just quietly put the pierced finger into her mouth and sucked it gently. Then she noticed that the other three people were looking at her. She blinked in confusion and asked:

"what happened?"

Cui Yu asked hesitantly, "Madam Gu, are you okay?"

"Of course I'm fine, I just pricked my finger." Gu Li said with a smile, "As a female worker, how can you not get your hand pricked?"

Cui Yu had already learned from Wang Wei about Gu Li's situation, which was the so-called anxiety during pregnancy. Seeing Gu Li's relaxed look, she was slightly relieved, fearing that Gu Li was just pretending to be calm.

Gu Li was indeed suppressing his depression, constantly comforting himself in his heart:

"Don't be anxious. Don't be anxious."

"Chang Lang said this is normal."

“I’m not anxious. I’m not anxious…”

Gu Li thought about it and kept comforting herself. She looked at her fingers for the last time, took a deep breath, and then picked up the needle and thread again, saying:

"Sister Qi, Sister Qi, Madam Cui, let's continue."

Seeing Gu Li's nonchalant look, Cui Yu had to put her worries aside for the time being and continued to teach Gu Li how to weave clothes with the Chang Qi sisters.

Gu Li was naturally not as calm as she looked. After being pricked by the needle, she felt inexplicably depressed again. Perhaps because of the agreement, or because she was knitting the robe that Chang An was going to wear, she forced herself to keep learning.

When knitting the stitches, Gu Li would pull it with his hands every few times to see if it was firm. The three people guided one person to make a robe for the whole morning, and it was not until noon that it was completed.

Gu Li's big eyes were full of joy. She held the white robe carefully in her hands, even though she had only sewn a board and hadn't sewn any other details yet.

Seeing that Gu Li's face was filled with joy, Cui Yu asked, "Madam Gu, what pattern are you going to sew on your robe?"

"Well... sew some lightning patterns on the sleeves, and then sew some other patterns on the body. It should suit Chang Lang's temperament." Gu Li replied.

Cui Yu smiled and asked, "I understand the pattern, but why do you want to sew lightning patterns on Chang Langjun?"

"Because Chang Lang's husband, Mr. Song, always said that he had thunderous means or something. Although I don't understand what Chang Lang did, it's always right to embroider a pattern like this."

As Gu Li spoke, he folded the robe in his hand and put it away.

"The time is almost up. Let me collect these things and then go wait for Chang Lang and Wang Langjun." Gu Li said as he packed the basket.

Cui Yu was a little confused at this time, and said, "Madam Gu, it's only a little after noon, are you in such a hurry?"

Chang Qi and her sister Chang Qi were also packing up their needlework at this time, and then the elder sister smiled and replied: "Madam Cui, you don't know that our third wife will always wait for the young master at the door a long time in advance no matter what time it is."

Chang Qi also nodded. Cui Yu asked curiously, "Is sister Qi shy? I remember that we had seen each other for several days but she never spoke."

Gu Li smiled and said, "Sister Qi likes to talk a lot, while Sister Qi is much quieter. Madam Cui, just get used to it."

Chang Qi also smiled and said, "My sister has only spoken to me, please don't be offended, Madam Cui."

"Nothing, nothing."

Cui Yu smiled and changed the subject, then started to pack up. After packing up, Gu Li and Cui Yu walked to the door hand in hand.

"By the way, Madam Cui, how long have you been alive? It should be about two months, right?" Standing at the door, Gu Li was thinking about some topics to talk about.

Cui Yu raised his hand and counted the days with his fingers, then nodded and said, "It's almost three months. We diagnosed the pregnancy in mid-April, so it was estimated to be more than 40 days."

Gu Li nodded, then patted his head and asked, "By the way, Madam Cui, have you finished eating the donkey-hide gelatin cake?"

"It's almost there. I don't know if Mr. Chang said something to my husband, but he wants me to eat with his own eyes three times a day." Cui Yu said.

"Then I'll have someone bring some more back to Madam Cui." After saying that, Gu Li turned around and prepared to call a servant to do the job.

"No need, Madam Gu." Cui Yu quickly pulled Gu Li and said, "That thing must be very valuable, and it was made by Master Chang for you. How could you give it to me?"

Gu Li said at this time: "Why not? Wang Langjun and Chang Lang are good friends, and you and I are also good friends. These are just supplements, not expensive things, so Madam Cui, please don't be polite."

"Someone, go to the kitchen and ask Zhen'er to get two boxes of donkey-hide gelatin cakes. Pack them up and let Madam Cui take them away. Go quickly."

Cui Yu shook Gu Li's arm and said awkwardly, "Madam Gu, it's really not necessary."

"Mr. Chang has helped my husband so much, it is already difficult to repay his kindness, and now Madam Gu you are doing the same, we really feel sorry for you."

Seeing Cui Yu's embarrassment, Gu Li said, "What happened between Chang Lang and Wang Langjun is their business, and what happened between us is our business. How can we mix them up?"

"Besides, Chang Lang and Wang Langjun are like this now, how can they be benefactors? Maybe the relationship between the Langjuns is like this? Right."

After Gu Li finished speaking, he patted Cui Yu's hand, but he seemed to feel unsure and added: "I also know that Madam Cui was asked by Chang Lang to take care of me. If you don't accept it, I won't let Madam Cui in."

"Mrs. Gu knows everything?" Cui Yu was a little surprised at this time. Was his intention so obvious?

Gu Li smiled and nodded, saying, "Chang Lang said that I'm easy to bully, but I'm not stupid. He just told me about some anxiety disorder two days ago, and today Chang Lang asked Madam Cui to take care of me. How can you not see that?"

"That's right. I thought Mr. Chang was planning to keep it a secret from Ms. Gu for now." Cui Yu said with a smile.

Afterwards, Cui Yu thought of Gu Li's calm appearance today, and he knew the reason, but he still asked with concern: "Then was it because of this that Madam Gu pricked her hand today?"

Gu Li nodded and said, "Chang Lang told me that it is normal if I feel unhappy or anxious during this period of time."

"In other words, Madam Gu was actually very unhappy at that time, right?" Cui Yu asked with concern.

"Well, but I also comforted myself and I'm not unhappy. Until now, I'm still fine." Gu Li gave Cui Yu a sweet smile.

"That's good. Mr. Chang will definitely be very happy to see Madam Gu like this." Cui Yu also smiled.

At this time, Gu Li pulled Cui Yu's hand again and asked, "Has Madam Cui also experienced this kind of anxiety?"

Cui Yu tilted his head and said, "No, but I don't know if I will be like you, Madam Gu, in the future."

"Then when the time comes, I will go over and help Mr. Wang take care of Madam Cui, how about that?" Gu Li said, and seemed to feel that this was a bit inappropriate, so he added:

"Um... I mean, just in case, just in case Madam Cui is like this, I will go to help. It would be best if she doesn't end up like me."

Cui Yu smiled and said, "Nothing, Madam Gu is also concerned about me."

The two of them stood at the gate of Marquis Dingkang's Mansion for about an incense stick of time, and then they saw a carriage approaching from the other end of the street.

Chang An and Wang Wei, one in Imperial College clothes and the other in official uniform, got off the carriage while talking:

"Brother Yonghe should also take a day off tomorrow, right?"

"Yes."

"Then why don't we go to Zuiyun Tower together? I heard that there will be a new play in Zuiyun Tower tomorrow, and they have invited Madam Gongsun. It will surely be very lively."

"Brother Mojie, are you going to take Madam Cui with you?"

Both gentlemen came to their wives, went through the "entry" process of returning home from get off work or school, and continued chatting:

"Yes, staying at home all day will naturally make you have all kinds of thoughts, which is not good for your mood." Wang Wei said.

"That's good indeed."

Wang Wei and Chang An both held their wives' hands, and the former continued, "I just wonder if Brother Yonghe and Madam Gu have any plans tomorrow. If not, let's go together?"

Chang An raised his eyebrows, then looked at Gu Li who was standing aside and still a little confused, and asked: "Is Madam Gu going?"

"Where are you going? To Zuiyun Tower to watch a play?" Gu Li blinked and asked in confusion.

Chang An nodded and said, "If you want to go, we'll go tomorrow."

Gu Li suddenly remembered what happened yesterday, and his face turned red. After thinking for a while, he nodded, agreeing.

Seeing Gu Li nod, Wang Wei said, "Then we will come to pick you up after lunch tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll trouble you, Brother Mojie then." Chang An said.

"Well, Brother Yonghe, Madam Gu, goodbye." Wang Wei then took Cui Yu's hand, said hello, and left.

After watching Wang Wei and his wife leave, Gu Li gently tugged at Chang An's sleeve. Chang An saw Gu Li's red face and asked:

"what happened?"

Gu Li's face turned red at this time, and then he said: "Let's... let's go to bed early tonight? I won't wake Chang Lang up tomorrow. Can Chang Lang sleep until he wakes up naturally?"

"why?"

Chang An was a little amused at this moment. On normal days, Gu Li would always wake him up without fail. Why did he suddenly give in today and allow himself to sleep in?
