Female Master: Why doesn’t my wife love me yet?

Wen Shubai nodded. After Yu Shui came back, Gu Qingyuan asked Yu Shui to boil the medicine, while she planned to go back and rest.

Gu Qingyuan was about to leave when a voice suddenly sounded from behind her.

"I……"

She listened attentively to the rather small voice coming out of Wen Shubai's mouth, and she retracted her leg that was about to take a step forward.

Turning back, Gu Qingyuan asked him, "What's wrong? Is there anything else?"

Those watery eyes looked at her, with both reluctance and desire in them.

"You don't want me to leave, right?" Gu Qingyuan guessed.

Maybe I was the one who rescued him, so he is temporarily dependent on me now.

Wen Shubai nodded again, his voice very low, "I'm scared alone."

Yu Shui wisely went to boil the medicine and came to the kitchen with the medicine prescribed by the doctor. Only Gu Qingyuan and Wen Shubai were left in the room.

This room has been tidied and is very clean.

Gu Qingyuan helped Wen Shubai sit on the bed. Seeing that he didn't struggle, she turned to look at him.

"Can I hug you?"

Wen Shubai asked cautiously. Gu Qingyuan did not object and stretched out his arms towards him.

He lay in Gu Qingyuan's arms, with his arms on her back, "I was really scared just now. I thought I was burned to death."

Gu Qingyuan patted his back gently to comfort him, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. We are all out now. It's okay. You just need to get some sleep."

But Wen Shubai shook his head in her arms: "I dare not close my eyes. As soon as I close my eyes, the fire in my mind is so bright that it hurts my eyes."

"Then don't think about this, think about other things that make you happy."

When Wen Shubai heard her words, he thought about it seriously and found that his first half of life had been dull and there was nothing that made him particularly happy.

The medicine boiled with rain water was brought over. Gu Qingyuan picked up the bowl and got scalded.

Yu Shui quickly brought a towel and said, "Master, use this as a cushion."

Only then did Gu Qingyuan pick up the spoon and feed him the medicine.

Yu Shui saw that his master's eyes, which had been dead, gradually became bright, and when Gu Qingyuan fed him medicine, he did not refuse.

The medicine was a little hot, and Gu Qingyuan took some time to feed him. She handed the bowl to Yu Shui, who then brought another bowl of clean water for Wen Shubai to rinse his mouth.

After rinsing his mouth, Gu Qingyuan said to him, "Okay, you've taken the medicine, it's time to rest."

Wen Shubai raised his head as if asking her, "Are you leaving?"

Looking at his eyes, Gu Qingyuan really couldn't stand it. A fire made the person who originally avoided her become so clingy. She grabbed his hand and forced him into the quilt.

"Sleep! Everything will be fine after a good night's sleep!"

The medicine contains sedative ingredients, including some that help with sleeping. After a while, Wen Shubai felt sleepy and slowly closed his eyes.

Gu Qingyuan sat by his bed for a while, and when she heard his even breathing, she was about to get up.

It was so late and she was sleepy.

Gu Qingyuan tiptoed away and returned to her room to sleep.

The next day.

Wen Shubai opened his eyes and was unable to react for a moment when he saw the unfamiliar environment around him. He slowly sat up and his memory came back to him. He thought of the fire in Meiyuan last night.

"rainwater."

Wen Shubai shouted and soon the rain came in from outside. He asked Wen Shubai, "Master, you called me?"

As if feeling a little awkward, he asked, "When did the young master leave?"

"Oh, she went back when you fell asleep." Yu Shui answered honestly.

Wen Shubai's expression changed slightly. He originally thought... that she would take advantage of him while he was asleep... but he never thought that he was just overthinking.

"Master, I feel that the young master must have you in her heart, otherwise she wouldn't have braved the fire to save you last night. And when I went to look for the young master last night, she heard that the plum garden was on fire and came over immediately."

Wen Shubai snorted and said, "Do you even need to tell me that?"

Yu Shui's words made him feel a little better, and he got up and packed up.

……

When Gu Qingyuan got up, she felt severe pain in her body. She didn't feel this much pain last night. It might be because she was worried about Mei Yuan's condition last night. After resting today, the pain became more obvious.

After she got up, she called Chunfen over.

"Spring Equinox, go to my mother's yard and tell that Summer Solstice that I might not be able to go today."

She needs at least a day's rest before she can continue practicing martial arts.

"Okay." After receiving Gu Qingyuan's instructions, Chunfen quickly went out to find Xiazhi.

Gu Qingyuan came outside and saw Wen Shubai. Wen Shubai also saw her and actually smiled at her, which was rare.

This person is good-looking to begin with, and maybe because he is protected too well, he looks clean.

And that smile to Gu Qingyuan made her heart beat much faster.

"Did you have a good rest last night?" Gu Qingyuan asked with concern.

Wen Shubai nodded at her and said gratefully, "Thank you so much for last night."

"I'm glad you're okay." Gu Qingyuan said with a smile.

Seeing that he was much better than last night, Gu Qingyuan felt relieved.

In this way, His Majesty will not bother to bring matters to the General's Mansion.

It will take some time to rebuild Meiyuan, but many things there have been burned.

Gu Qingyuan ordered a thorough investigation into the cause of the fire, and also had someone purchase a batch of things and send them to Wen Shubai's room.

"I can only ask you to use these first."

Naturally, these purchases are not as good as the ones bestowed by His Majesty before. As His Majesty's youngest son, his father is very favored and is said to be a noble prince.

When she married into the general's mansion, His Majesty also gave her many gifts.

But all these things were burned up in a fire.

Gu Qingyuan sighed inwardly, then went back into the house and found a book to read.

The original owner could barely read or write. Every day she either went out to fool around or beat her husband at home. She even burned the books that General Gu bought for her and ate them like barbecue.

Gu Qingyuan found a book in the corner that was used to pad the corner of the table. She found a stone and put it under the table again. She patted the dust off the book and looked at it for a few seconds.

In addition to martial arts, literature is also indispensable.

Otherwise, others would just say that she is a reckless person.

When the news of Gu Qingyuan reading a book spread, the entire general's mansion was shocked.

Not only did she start practicing martial arts, she also took the initiative to read books!

General Gu was almost in tears. All the books she had given to Gu Qingyuan in the past had been ordered by her, and she even caught the chickens and ducks raised by the servants and roasted them for food.

But I never thought that she didn't order any books today!
