Practicing martial arts is a gradual process. Yesterday it was one hour, and today it was increased to two hours.

Gu Qingyuan squatted down and began to do horse stance under the sun.

Plum Garden.

Wen Shubai was holding a book in his hand, with steaming tea on the table. His sparkling eyes were staring at the door, as if waiting for someone to come.

"rainwater."

He called out.

A servant appeared swiftly, "Master, you called me?"

"Scared me."

Wen Shubai didn't expect him to appear so soon, and patted his chest lightly.

Yu Shui scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and continued to ask: "Master, is there anything you want to ask me?"

"These past two days..." he began hesitantly, "Has the young master come to see me?"

Ever since that day when she tried to drug him but accidentally drank it, he saw her hit her head against the bed and faint. Later, he threatened to commit suicide, and she let him go. Later, he heard that she went to Ji Cefu's yard.

What happened that night left a shadow on him, so he specifically instructed that if Gu Qingyuan came over, he should stop her.

To prevent her from forcing her way in, he even sent the people given to him by the Queen Mother.

But after not hearing any movement from her in the past two days, Wen Shubai suspected that she had come to see him and was stopped by the person at the door.

"No, Young Master, she has never come to see you."

Wen Shubai's fingers holding the scroll turned slightly white, and he glanced towards the door again.

Humph, she is quite capable.

He wanted to see how long she could endure it.

In his opinion, all this was just a trick played by her to make him notice her.

He won't be fooled.

Seeing that he clearly wanted to see the young master, but looked awkward, Yu Shui advised: "If the master wants to see the young master, why not go to her courtyard and find her."

Wen Shubai immediately glared at Yu Shui, "Who said I was going to look for her? She can come or not, I just want to be alone."

Yu Shui complained in her heart, "Master, you are still being stubborn. Don't think I didn't notice that you wanted to take a look at the door after reading for a while, and your ears almost pricked up when you heard the movement at the door, and you still said that you didn't want to see the young master."

But he could only keep these words in his heart, and he didn't dare say them directly in front of Wen Shubai.

Bamboo Garden.

Ji Mingzhao was used to doing the work when he was in Qingfeng Garden. Now Gu Qingyuan assigned him servants. These servants were very polite to him and worked diligently and efficiently. He felt like he had nothing to do just staying in the yard all day.

He had learned some flute-playing skills from his sister at home before, and there happened to be a flute in Zhuyuan, so he tried to practice it.

But ever since she used the flute like that, whenever he saw it, he couldn't help but think of what happened that night, and he felt a pain in his back.

Ji Mingzhao came to the servant who was washing clothes.

"Put it down and let me wash it."

It’s a good opportunity to find something to do.

But the servant kept kneeling on the ground as if he had heard something terrible.

"Did I do something wrong that made you unhappy? Please don't tell the young master..."

Ji Mingzhao had no choice but to help him up.

"No, no, I just want to find something to do."

But seeing him like this, Ji Mingzhao had no choice but to give up.

He sighed, feeling a little bored.

Suddenly, he remembered something.

That day, he noticed that the soles of Gu Qingyuan's shoes had worn thin, so he asked someone to buy some material for the soles. He planned to sew shoes for Gu Qingyuan.

Orchid Garden.

Lu Rui has been feeling extremely nervous since he came here.

What he did every day was to take medicine to nourish his body and exercise his legs with the help of his servants.

He felt like a useless person. It was Gu Qingyuan who gave him a second life, and he must repay her well.

Normally, Lu Rui always keeps his head down, as if he doesn't want people to see his face.

He was an ugly man, but Gu Qingyuan didn't despise him and bought him back.

And he actually wanted to tell Gu Qingyuan that he was not worth a tael of silver. His mother sold him for fifty cents. He wanted to go home so much that he tried to escape and was beaten again and again.

Until his legs were broken and he could not walk far, and he wandered to more and more places, he could not remember his way home.

The memory of home has become increasingly vague.

……

After training, Gu Qingyuan felt so tired that she didn't want to move a finger. However, these two days of training also had some benefits. She felt that her body seemed to be much lighter.

When Chunfen returned to her own yard, he knew that she had gone to General Gu to practice martial arts again when he saw her like this, and he massaged her back and shoulders with concern.

"Young Master, you have worked hard."

"If you don't work hard, your life will be hard."

Gu Qingyuan made a joke, Chunfen smiled, and then asked her: "Young Master, why are you so obsessed with practicing martial arts? Obviously, you also..."

"I want to become stronger, and I don't want others to look down on me anymore."

When she said this, her tone was very firm, and the gleam in her eyes shocked Chunfen.

Chunfen nodded and said, "Okay, we will change to show them."

As for who they are, no one can explain it clearly.

a few days later.

Gu Qingyuan went to Xia Zhi to practice martial arts as usual every day, and sometimes he would have a sparring match with her after practice.

Xia Zhi was afraid of hurting Gu Qingyuan, so she didn't use her full strength, but Gu Qingyuan ordered her to treat him as an enemy, so that she could better stimulate her potential.

After consulting General Gu, Xia Zhi became much more serious when fighting with her.

Gu Qingyuan thought that he had gained some strength after practicing for a few days, but when he was thrown to the ground by Xia Zhi, he felt dizzy.

She stood up unconvinced and continued to fight with Xia Zhi.

The more she fought, the more powerful she became. Xia Zhi also gradually became serious and no longer treated her as a playboy who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun.

Gu Qingyuan had a lot of bruises on his body.

This time, General Gu did not spoil her like before. Besides, it didn't matter if a woman was injured. Her daughter, Gu Ruotian, should be as courageous as her!

After Ji Mingzhao finished sewing the shoes, he personally delivered them to Gu Qingyuan.

This was his first time coming to Gu Qingyuan's yard. The servant recognized his identity and invited him over.

He asked, "Where is the young master?"

Chunfen replied, "Young Master has been going to General Gu's courtyard to practice martial arts every day these days. I'm afraid he won't be back until the evening."

"Then, I'll wait here for her to come back."

In fact, he also wanted to see her.

Chunfen prepared tea for him and saw the thing he was holding in his arms like a treasure. She asked, "Mr. Ji, what is this?"

"These are the shoes I made for the young master myself." He took them out and showed them to Chunfen.

"The young master will be very happy to see it."

"I hope so." Ji Mingzhao pursed his lips.
