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

General Gu happened to have something to discuss with the head of the Qi family. The two of them came into the house and first discussed the marriage of Gu Qingyuan and Qi Ziyao. Afterwards, General Gu took a sip of water and continued, "I heard that the Qi family also has a branch in Yuncheng..."

During this period, His Majesty has been worried about the situation in Yuncheng. There was a famine in Yuncheng, and the people were living in dire straits. There was even cannibalism among the people.

Patriarch Qi nodded and said, "If General Gu needs anything, please let me know. It would be my honor to be able to help General Gu."

General Gu smiled and became even more satisfied with Gu Qingyuan's marriage.

"Master Qi, rest assured, your son will never be wronged if he marries into our family. Although my daughter was a bit confused before, she is slowly getting better now."

When the head of the Qi family thought about the appearance of Gu Qingyuan he saw yesterday, it seemed that he was not as the rumors said, doing evil and bullying others by relying on his status.

"However, I think you know something about our family situation. If your son were to marry into our family, I'm afraid the position of legal husband would be..."

The head of the Qi family quickly said, "I know. My son is just a commoner. How dare he compete with the prince for the position of the principal husband? If he can become the young master's concubine, that would be fine."

The women she had originally looked for on behalf of Qi Ziyao, although their family backgrounds were decent, were not strong enough to become the backers of the Qi family. The General's Mansion was powerful and had the emperor's favor. Their family had a relationship with the Gu family, and no one else would dare to touch the Qi family in the future.

Naturally, General Gu had thought of everything that Patriarch Qi could think of. The two men smiled at each other, and then Patriarch Qi stood up.

"I won't bother General Gu today."

General Gu also stood up and said, "Tomorrow I will take Qingyuan to the Qi family to propose marriage, so that the marriages of the two children can be settled as soon as possible."

The head of the Qi family responded: "Okay."

Afterwards, General Gu had the head of the Qi family sent out, and called Gu Qingyuan over to prepare the betrothal gifts with her to go to the Qi family to propose marriage.

Gu Qingyuan quickly arrived at General Gu's courtyard and called out, "Mother!"

General Gu looked at her and said something first.

"I heard that a disabled person you brought back from outside was also given a yard."

Gu Qingyuan knew she was talking about Lu Rui, and nodded, "Mom, although he comes from a low family, I like him too..."

s face.

General Gu smiled and said, "I know. If I didn't like you, I wouldn't have brought him back. It's just that his appearance is really hard to describe."

"Mom, I will find a doctor to heal his leg, and Lu Rui is also very good."

Lu Rui's appearance does not conform to the aesthetic taste of people in this time and space, but Gu Qingyuan thinks that aesthetic taste should be diversified, just like the modern popular aesthetic of fair, young and thin girls, which is actually a somewhat distorted aesthetic taste.

And health is the most beautiful.

"I know you care about Lu Rui, but when the Qi family guy comes into the house, you should also pretend to be nice to him first and don't ignore him."

Gu Qingyuan assured: "Mom, don't worry, I know what to do."

Afterwards, Gu Qingyuan, General Gu, and the servants of the Gu family went to prepare the betrothal gifts.

Time was too tight, and Gu Qingyuan spent the whole afternoon preparing for this matter. General Gu sent people to purchase a batch of things outside the mansion, and the mansion looked a little messy for a while.

Wen Shubai saw that Gu Qingyuan had been called away and had not returned to the yard, and his hands became a little unsteady while copying the book.

What is she going to do? Why hasn't she come back yet?

Wen Shubai's pen shook, and the ink spread across the paper, staining a large area.

He looked outside again, but still didn't see her. The uneasy feeling in his heart grew stronger and stronger.

It was almost evening when Gu Qingyuan returned to his yard.

She didn't expect that just taking a concubine would require all the necessary ceremonies. Women in Daning Kingdom could have three husbands and four maids, but these three husbands did not mean three main husbands. There could only be one besides the main husband, and the remaining two were concubines.

Gu Qingyuan is going to the Qi family to propose marriage tomorrow, so she plans to take a good bath tonight to prepare herself.

Well, she hadn’t seen the complete face of the young master of the Qi family, but judging from the way he looked with the veil on, he wouldn’t be too bad looking.

Gu Qingyuan asked Chunfen to give her a bath. She soaked in the water comfortably and let Chunfen rub her back.

Afterwards, the news that Gu Qingyuan wanted to take Qi Ziyao, the son of the Qi family, as her concubine spread throughout the general's mansion.

Wen Shubai finally understood where the uneasy feeling in his heart came from. She was actually going to add another person to the mansion!

This made him feel like a joke, although he knew that it was normal for a woman to have three husbands and four servants, and she would probably not remember him with a new person in the mansion.

But Wen Shubai still felt very sad. He couldn't help but think of the fire in Meiyuan, when the servants watched the fire but did not dare to come in to save him.

However, Gu Qingyuan rushed in without hesitation and carried him out, even injuring her leg while saving him.

He looked at the light on in Gu Qingyuan's room and felt uncomfortable.

She should be very happy now. This heartless woman doesn't care about her feelings at all.

Seeing their master's dark face, Yu Shui persuaded him, "Master, I told you from the beginning that you had to capture the young master's heart..."

Before he could finish his words, Wen Shubai scolded him harshly.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm just wondering when Plum Garden will be rebuilt and when we can move back."

Yu Shui uttered an "Oh" and guessed, "It should be ready soon. Will the master be willing to move back and leave the young master?"

Wen Shubai gritted his teeth and said, "Yushui, you are becoming more and more bold now."

As a bystander, Yu Shui could see that he cared about Gu Qingyuan, but for the sake of face he refused to admit it and could only sigh in his heart.

He lowered his head and admitted his mistake, saying, "I overstepped my bounds. Please forgive me, Master."

Wen Shubai snorted and lay down on the bed to rest with a little annoyance.

"Keep the lights on all the time, what a luxury!"

Yu Shui looked outside and saw that the light was on in Gu Qingyuan's room, which was not far from their house. The young master must be preparing to propose marriage tomorrow.

He smiled bitterly, then stood in the room guarding Wen Shubai.

After taking a bath, Gu Qingyuan felt that her skin was better. She let Chunfen dry her body. She put on her clothes and wrapped her hair with a towel.

Come to think of it, she was actually a little nervous in her heart and was looking forward to what would happen tomorrow.

After her hair was a little dry, Gu Qingyuan went to bed, waiting to go to the Qi family with General Gu to propose marriage early the next morning.

By the way, this is her first time marrying a man!

Although there are already three children in the family, she is still very excited!

Just like that, Gu Qingyuan fell asleep excitedly.
