ong, and Chunliu.After the four ladies left, the other wives couldn't help but whisper and discuss among themselves."I thought she wouldn't come today, but I was surprised to see her here.""Who said o...Seeing him silent, Qiwuwen continued, "Yaoling, why don't you speak"

Gu Jingxi glanced at his friend, feeling puzzled. He retorted, "Why would she need to send me food I'm not disabled, and if I want the home-cooked meals, I can just go home myself, right"

Upon hearing this, Qi Yunwen looked at him in astonishment and silently gave him a thumbs up: “This is the first time I’ve ever heard someone comfort themselves like this.”

Gu Jingxi ignored him and continued to eat, she had to say, the chef at the Qi family was quite good. Compared to the chef in Dali Temple's kitchen, it was simply worlds apart.

He didn't speak, but Qi Yunwen was still talking incessantly.

Gu Jingxi interrupted him, saying calmly, "What difference does it make whether or not you deliver food Mrs. Liu delivers food to Mr. Liu every day, but that doesn't prevent them from fighting. Didn't you see the bruise at the corner of Mr. Liu's left eye today He was fine yesterday, but now... I think you can guess who did it"

Qi Yunwen was speechless. Mrs. Liu came from a military family, known as a tiger woman from a military background. She was skilled in martial arts. Mr. Liu, on the other hand, was a frail scholar with no fighting ability and could only be beaten unilaterally without any defense.

Gu Jingxi said again: "Although my wife didn't bring me food, she has never hit me or argued with me."

Qi Yunwen heard this and couldn't help but give him a withering look.

So you're still proud, huh

After a moment of silence, Qi Yunwen retorted: "Your sister-in-law is such a delicate little girl, she can't carry anything or lift anything. Even if she wanted to fight you, she couldn't beat you. If she took the initiative to fight you, wouldn't that make her look foolish"

Gu Jingxi replied blandly, "Of course she wouldn't beat me up like Liu shi did to Liu gongzi. I just state the facts. Being polite on the surface doesn't stop us from quarreling and fighting behind closed doors."

Qi Yunwen: "..."

At first glance, it seems to make some sense.

For a moment, Qi Yunwen glanced at him and said, “Although we fought last night, Mrs. Liu brought food for Mr. Liu today, which proves that things aren't that bad.” He paused, then asked curiously, “There isn’t a man who doesn’t like his wife to be virtuous and kind to him, wouldn’t you say”

Gu Jingxi felt he was being very noisy, even at a meal. He couldn't be still for a moment. He truly was getting more and more talkative as he got older. He said in a soft voice: "That might be it. I'm more considerate, and I like to be gentle and thoughtful towards my wife."

Qi Yunwen: “”

Gu Jingxi finished the last bite of his meal and slowly put down his chopsticks. "I'm full, you take your time."

Qi Yunwen glanced at the empty bowl in front of him, then at his own rice that hadn't moved much. He looked up at the other person, his eyes seemed to say: How long have you been hungry Why are you eating so fast

Gu Jingxi gave him a light glance: "If you say another word, it'll be dark, and we can have you for dinner."

Qi Yunwen: "..."

However, he didn't waste any more words. He finished his lunch as quickly as possible, cleaned up his dishes, and then discussed the case with Gu Jingxi.

-

Good afternoon, Zhengsan's value is dispersed.

Things are not so busy now, the adults all leave on time.

As Gu Jingxi just stepped out of the Dali Temple gate, preparing to descend the steps, he saw a familiar figure. A young girl in a fiery red dress stood quietly by the stone lion on the left side of the Dali Temple gate. The early summer breeze ruffled her skirt, making it dance and catch the eye. Two maidservants accompanied her.

Seeing this, Gu Jingxi was stunned for a moment, then quickly recovered, stepped down the steps, walked to her side, and asked softly, "Madam, how did you come here"

Meng Jinyao replied, "I have something to find my husband. If my husband is still busy, I won't bother him."

Gu Jingxi was startled again, and immediately said, "It's not convenient to talk here, let's go over there."

At this moment, several adults who came after saw Gu Jingxi talking to a beautiful woman. They were curious, for when had Gu Temple ever been so close to a woman

A grown man stepped forward and asked, "Master Gu, who is this" He then looked at Meng Jin Yao, a flash of astonishment in his eyes. He quickly realized the impropriety of his gaze and hurriedly retracted it.

Gu Jingxi replied, "This is what my wife said and then to Meng Jin Yao said, 'Madam, this is Lord Zhang.'

"

"That distinguished gentleman was astonished and hurriedly bowed in greeting: “So it is Mrs. Gu, my apologies, my apologies.”

Meng Jinyao smiled and nodded. "Zhang..."

Gu Jingxi said, "Zhang sir, my husband and I still have some other business to attend to. We'll take our leave first."

That Zhang Da Ren hurriedly said, "Good, Gu Da Ren and Madam Gu, walk slowly."

Gu Jingxi lightly nodded, then took the little girl towards the carriage, Qingqiu and Ningdong, the two maidservants, also followed.

Seeing this scene, Zhang and the other officials behind him were both shocked and astonished.

They had also privately speculated that Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu might not have a harmonious relationship, and that Mr. Gu might be dissatisfied with Mrs. Gu. After all, Mr. Gu was forced to marry the fiancee who should have been his son's, which caused him great shame.

As a result, Madam Gu came to look for Master Gu today. Master Gu even pulled Madam Gu away in front of them. Looking at it, they didn't seem to have a bad relationship. If their relationship was bad, not only would he not pull her wrist, he wouldn't even glance at her with disgust.

Just now, Mr. Zhang stepped back a few steps and whispered to Qi Yunwen: "Sir Qi, this time we believe what you said. Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu have a very good relationship."

Qi Yunwen's face changed, and he smiled lightly: "Could I possibly deceive you about this You actually suspect my words"

Zhang Da Ren smiled and said, "I dare not, I dare not. We didn't doubt Qí Da Ren, we just found it unbelievable."

Don't always think about things that are unfounded and make wild guesses.

Qi Yunwen glanced at them, remembering what his friend had said at noon. He felt that this kind of thing couldn't just be heard by him alone, so he continued: "Our Lord Gu is a virtuous and good man, who likes to be gentle and considerate to his wife. He can't bear to have his wife do anything. He even sends a meal for fear that his wife will be tired from running around. He also said that he has legs, and if he wants to eat home-cooked meals, he can go back by himself."

Several officials were dumbfounded:

They understand that it's hard to ask their wives to travel and work so hard, but how can their boss, Lord Gu, who is known for being decisive and ruthless, relate to the words "virtuous" and "kind"

Qi Yunwen didn't want to say more, waved his hand and said helplessly: "Alright, everyone is done. Just go back. You're all a bunch of big men, how come you gossip like a bunch of women I'm ashamed of you."

Several adults replied with busy smiles.

It just so happens that today, rumors about the discord between Master Gu and Madam Gu have been debunked on their own. No one in Dali Temple dares to say anymore that Master Gu and Madam Gu are not harmonious as a couple.

The couple is an older husband and a younger wife, the wife is so beautiful. Mr. Gu clearly adores her, how could he possibly dislike Mrs. Guto see me tire myself out It must be that I haven't accompanied you on the street for a long time. Now that we went once, it ruined your mood and made Xuan Yi unhappy. It is my fault."Upon hearing thi...
