The husband who forced her to marry her couldn't keep her warm, and she didn't want him to
Chapter 197 Do you want to try it?
The harvest was very good this year, and the boss is very good at doing business. The fruits he selected are plump and uniform in shape.
There are six red fruits strung on bamboo sticks, which makes people salivate at the sight.
After Gu Jinchu took a bite, she was amazed by the taste and raised her hand to cover her mouth.
The sugar coating is sweet and crispy, and makes a crisp and pleasant sound when you bite it.
She rested her elbows on the kang table, half lying on it, and brought the candied haws close to Jiang Nansheng. With anticipation in her eyes, she asked him with a smile, "Do you want to try it?"
The way he looked at me with his squinting eyes and tilted head looked like a contented little fox.
Jiang Nansheng lowered his eyes and looked at the small amber-colored fruit wrapped in syrup in front of him. Under Gu Jinchu's expectant gaze, he lowered his head and gently took a bite.
First you feel a rich sweetness, and then a sour taste spreads across your tongue.
He swallowed it whole and said vaguely, "Hmm, it tastes good."
When Gu Jinchu heard this, a bright smile spread across his face, like a blooming crabapple flower. He sat back with a smile on his face, and said cheerfully, "I think it's good too."
Jiang Nansheng not only bought a string of candied haws, but also brought back some hawthorn balls dipped in icing sugar.
They are neatly arranged in a shallow glass dish. The crystal clear red fruits and the snow-white icing make people like them more and have an appetite.
Gu Jinchu's eyes lit up and he used a bamboo fork to put one into his mouth. Unlike the crisp texture of the candied haws, the hawthorn ball was steamed and then coated with icing sugar, so it had a softer texture and was easier to chew.
The acidity was also reduced a lot. Before he knew it, Gu Jinchu had eaten several hawthorn balls.
Mother Xu, who came to the inner room to deliver something, saw that the glass plate on the kang table was mostly empty. She showed a look of surprise and hesitancy on her face.
Seeing this, Gu Jinchu pushed the plate away and said with a smile, "Bai Shao, take it away and share it among you."
"Thank you, Madam." Bai Shao held the plate, bent her back, and followed Mother Xu out.
When they were the only two people left in the room, Jiang Nansheng put down the book in his hand and said to Gu Jinchu who was sitting opposite him: "It's still early now, do you want to go for a walk in the yard?"
He was usually busy with official duties, leaving home early and returning late, so the time he could spend with her was very limited. He was afraid that she would feel lonely and bored.
Gu Jinchu thought about it and shook his head, "It's too cold outside, I don't want to move."
The main thing is that I don’t want to move. I feel lazy and just want to lie on the warm kang in the warm room.
"Okay." Jiang Nansheng said softly, and the only sound in the room was the sound of two people flipping through books from time to time.
Quiet and peaceful.
Mother Xu brought Bai Shao out of the main room, stood in a place where no one was around, put away the smile on her face, and became a little serious.
"Madam's period is coming soon. How can we let her eat so many cold foods at night? What if she gets a stomachache?"
Bai Shao felt a little aggrieved and whispered back, "Mother Xu, this is what the Fifth Master bought for Madam..."
Mother Xu glanced towards the main room and lowered her voice: "...How can the fifth master, a man and newlywed, understand..."
"Even if the Fifth Master bought it for Madam, Madam's health should be the first priority!"
His attitude softened, and he taught earnestly: "...why don't you be more flexible and eat more tomorrow or eat less..."
Bai Shao lowered her head and leaned forward, whispering, "I understand, Mother Xu."
Gu Jinchu didn't know that he was scolded by the maid because of his greed. He only felt that the words on the book in his hand became more and more blurred. He couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell asleep leaning on the big pillow.
In a daze, she felt someone holding her up, and a familiar breath hit her face.
She subconsciously hugged his neck and buried her face in his arms. The faint ebony scent made her feel extremely at ease.
"Wash yourself first and then go to bed."
A low and gentle voice came from above my head, with a hint of doting.
Gu Jinchu responded in a daze, but when Jiang Nansheng put her on the floor of the clean room, she hugged his waist tightly instead.
With her eyes closed, she rubbed her cheek against his thick chest like a lazy kitten.
Jiang Nansheng hugged her, lowered his head, gently kissed her forehead, and said in a low voice:
"If Jinchu continues to hold me like this, I will have no choice but to stay and wash up with you..."
When Gu Jinchu heard these words, he suddenly became much more sober.
The hand around his waist changed to pushing him.
Her eyes flickered, she dared not look him in the eye, she just stared at the patterns on his clothes, and whispered softly: "Let the maid come in..."
They had been married for over a month, but had only been in the same bedroom twice. The thought of that scene made one blush.
Seeing that she was completely awake, Jiang Nansheng stood in front of her, raised her chin with his hand, and kissed her cheek as she avoided his gaze.
After letting her go, he walked out of the bathroom and told the maid outside to come in and serve him.
Gu Jinchu looked at his back as he walked away, raised her hands and placed the backs of her hands on both sides of her cheeks. The heat on her face was a little hot, making her gasp lightly.
If she had not been rational, she would have almost asked Jiang Nansheng to stay.
Seeing that Jiang Nansheng was still reading the travel book in his hand, Gu Jinchu lay down in the brocade fur coat with the help of his maid.
She was quite surprised when she first saw him reading miscellaneous books. She still remembered that Jiang Nansheng replied to her with a smile that he didn't have the time and opportunity to read them when he was young, but now he finds them quite interesting.
But she knew that whenever he was stressed and worried too much, he would seek relaxation from miscellaneous books and travel notes.
When Jiang Nansheng came out of the bathroom, he walked over and blew out the candle in the side room. The flame on the long table in the inner room was weak, and the bed curtain was half-drawn. In the shadows, only Gu Jinchu's fair face was visible under the brocade fur coat.
He walked over to the bed and lay down gently without waking her.
It was so quiet at night that only the breaths of two people could be heard.
Jiang Nansheng turned his head and looked at her for a while, then leaned over and kissed the top of her head.
As night fell over the Duke Dingguo's Mansion, the lights in the courtyards gradually went out.
In the main room of Songtao Garden, the maids helped the Crown Prince's wife, Wang, to go to bed and then left.
Dai Qiao, who was on night watch, came to the long table and was about to blow out the candle when she heard the voice of an old woman greeting her outside the door.
Mother Zhang walked in quickly, pushed open the partition, and said to Wang in a low voice, "Madam, the prince is here."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Nanhuai appeared at the door. He sat on the Luohan bed without saying a word, staring at Wang.
"What's wrong with you, husband?" Wang asked in confusion.
Mother Zhang quickly took the gown from the hanger, put it on her, and whispered to her, "Madam, the prince has drunk some wine."
Snapped--
A crisp sound broke the silence, and Jiang Nanhuai swept the tea that Dai Qiao brought to the ground. The sound of the teacup breaking was particularly harsh in the dark night.
His eyes widened with anger, he pointed at the master and servant beside the bed and angrily asked: "So what if I drank!"
