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

Ji Mingzhao asked her curiously, "Wife, what is prenatal education?"

Gu Qingyuan explained in simple terms that he could understand, "During your pregnancy, you should do something stimulating that will benefit the baby, such as reading to it or singing to it. This will not only make you happy, but also make the baby in your belly happy."

"But this child is not that big."

Gu Qingyuan smiled and continued, "Normal prenatal education can be started when the baby is three months old. Don't underestimate it because it knows everything and can feel everything."

Ji Mingzhao nodded and said, "No wonder, sometimes when I can't eat, I feel sad."

Maybe the child is feeling sorry for himself!

Thinking of this, Ji Mingzhao's hand couldn't help but touch his belly, feeling both anticipation and affection for the unborn baby.

Gu Qingyuan hummed softly a lullaby she had heard before. The melody was beautiful, and she deliberately softened her voice. When Ji Mingzhao heard her voice, his eyelids began to twitch.

Seeing that he was about to fall to the ground, Gu Qingyuan quickly supported him and said, "If you are sleepy, go and rest."

Ji Mingzhao smiled embarrassedly, "Strange, I was fine just now, but I felt a little sleepy when my wife sang."

"It seems that I can also hypnotize people." Gu Qingyuan curled up the corners of his mouth and looked in a good mood.

After bringing him to the bed, Gu Qingyuan sat down beside him. It didn't matter if he didn't go to the academy for a day, and she didn't mind one more day.

Ji Mingzhao lay on the bed, grabbed the corner of the quilt and closed his eyes.

After he fell asleep, Gu Qingyuan got up and left.

The news that she had stayed in Zhuyuan for a day quickly spread throughout the Gu family.

Everyone envied her for how much she valued Ji Mingzhao, and when they spoke of him, they could hardly hide their jealousy.

But no matter how jealous they were, they only dared to talk about it in private. After all, if Gu Qingyuan knew about it, they would definitely be punished.

After Gu Qingyuan left, she returned to her own courtyard. After returning, she saw Chunfen frantically hiding something. When she saw her, she forced a smile and said, "Young Master, you're back."

Gu Qingyuan walked in front of her and stretched out his hand to her, "Take it out, what were you looking at just now?"

Chunfen put one hand behind his back and shook his head, "No...nothing. Young Master, you just came back. Do you want to take a bath before going to bed? I'll go prepare the bath water for you."

But Gu Qingyuan insisted that she take it out. She didn't suspect anything at first, but when she saw Chunfen hiding it, Gu Qingyuan wanted to figure out what she had just seen.

And, if I wasn't mistaken, there seemed to be a hint of shyness on Chunfen's face?

This is rare.

Chunfen looked a little embarrassed, and Gu Qingyuan repeated, "Chunfen, take it out. Now you don't even listen to your young master, do you?"

Hearing Gu Qingyuan's serious tone, Chunfen quickly took out the thing hidden behind him. When Gu Qingyuan took a look, it turned out to be a purely hand-carved wooden hairpin.

"Where did it come from?"

Gu Qingyuan took it in her hand and looked at it. The wooden hairpin was carved very delicately and was very smooth without any tiny wood splinters.

The head of the wooden hairpin is in the shape of a shell. Gu Qingyuan knew that it would take a lot of effort just to carve out the patterns on the shell.

Chunfen pouted and said, "A stone gave it to me."

Gu Qingyuan was a little surprised. It was actually a stone that brought the Spring Equinox?

Shitou is the servant that Qi Ziyao brought with him as a dowry. He usually looks dull and like a piece of cold and hard stone, but he can actually carve hairpins to give to his sweetheart.

I don't see them interacting with each other normally.

Gu Qingyuan didn't rush to return the hairpin to Chunfen. Instead, she asked her, "When did you and Shitou meet?"

"Just...just recently, Shi Tou came to me and gave me this."

"So how do you feel about him?"

When Chunfen heard Gu Qingyuan ask him, his eyes were confused for a moment, "Does it count as being happy to see him?"

Gu Qingyuan held his forehead and returned the hairpin to her.

"You haven't married yet, and you've been with me for so long. If you want to start a family, I can return your indenture to you..."

"Young Master!" Chunfen interrupted her and shook his head, "I don't want to leave you, Young Master. I'm going to return this hairpin to him tomorrow... no, I'm going to return it to him now!"

Gu Qingyuan held her down and shook her head. "You don't have to do this. If you two really love each other, this is a good thing."

Chunfen looked a little anxious, "But I really can't bear to leave the young master."

Gu Qingyuan smiled and said, "Alright, just keep the hairpin he gave you. Just get along with each other as before. When you want to marry Shitou, tell me in advance and I'll let you go."

"Young Master." Chunfen's eyes were filled with emotion, and he held the hairpin tightly in his hand.

"I'm a little hungry. I haven't eaten anything today. Can you help me see if there's anything to eat in the kitchen?"

Chunfen went out quickly, leaving behind a word "OK", and his voice drifted in the wind.

Gu Qingyuan walked into the house and sat down. It was too early to rest now. She thought that His Majesty seemed to have implemented a night market, allowing people to set up stalls and sell things at night, but she had never gone out at night.

After Chunfen brought the food over, she said, "Chunfen, I suddenly don't want to eat anymore. Come out with me."

"But this is what the kitchen left for you because they knew you didn't eat."

"Let the servants divide it up and eat it."

Chunfen took the food out and came to Juyuan.

When Shitou saw that it was her, he walked over happily, a look of joy appearing on his previously expressionless face. "Chunfen, why are you here?"

Chunfen stuffed the food into his hands and said, "The young lady asked me to accompany her out. She said she didn't want to eat these things anymore, so I brought them to you."

Although Gu Qingyuan didn't want to eat it, it hadn't been touched yet. After Chunfen gave the thing to Shi Tou, he turned around and went back.

Shitou stood there for a long time before returning to the yard.

He shared the food with the other servants in Juyuan. As they ate, they sighed, "Young Master's food is still the best."

"Yeah, yeah, we don't usually get to eat so much meat."

"Brother Shitou, we are blessed to follow you."

Shitou smiled innocently and said, "No, no, no, these were all sent to me by Miss Chunfen."

"Hey, when did you get to know the young master's girl, Equinox?"

Shitou's face turned red because of their teasing. His already dark face was now mixed with black and red, making him look a little funny.

After returning to the house, Qi Ziyao, who had been asleep, seemed to hear them mention Gu Qingyuan. He called Shitou over and asked him, "Why did I hear you guys talking about the young master just now? Is the young master here?"
