The husband who forced her to marry her couldn't keep her warm, and she didn't want him to

The afterglow of the setting sun dyed the sky orange and yellow, and Mr. Jiang Wu's well-defined face seemed to be covered with a faint halo.

Under his gentle gaze with a smile in his eyes, Gu Jinchu walked up to him and raised his hand to place it on the palm he extended.

The rosy color on her cheeks had not yet faded due to the teasing from her sisters-in-law.

Not far behind her was a camellia tree, and its lush branches quietly stretched over the eaves and extended in. In the eyes of Master Jiang Wu, Jin Chu was more beautiful than the flowers at this moment.

Gu Jinchu raised his head, looked at Master Jiang Wu and said with a smile: "It's rare for the sisters-in-law to meet in Yuanyuan Hall, so I decided to invite them to have dinner together."

The second sister-in-law brought the eldest and fourth daughters, the third sister-in-law brought the sixth young master, the fourth sister-in-law brought the seventh young master, the eighth young master and the fifth daughter. The main room was very lively at the moment.

Standing in the study corridor at this time, you can hear the children's laughter echoing in the air.

Master Jiang Wu held her hand and pulled her into his arms, wanting to hug her.

Gu Jinchu hid away embarrassedly and whispered, "My sisters-in-law and children are watching us!" There was a hint of shyness in her eyes, making her fair and bright face even more charming.

Master Jiang Wu sighed softly, raised his hand and touched her earlobe, which was so hot that it was almost dripping with blood. His voice was low and a little aggrieved, "What should I do?"

He never knew whether his sisters-in-law would get together privately before they got married.

He didn't know how his brothers felt at home, he was a little uncomfortable.

Gu Jinchu took a small step forward and whispered in his ear, "The kitchen prepared roasted lamb chops today. I made the main dish, steamed buns, myself. They are the flavor that Fifth Master likes."

Not letting her hold him, Jiang Wuye raised his hand and gently stroked her belly, saying softly, "Have someone send dinner to Zhuli Pavilion. I won't go over to disturb my sisters-in-law."

There were a room full of women and children, so it didn't matter if Mr. Jiang Wuye didn't go over. After hearing this, Gu Jinchu nodded in agreement.

Then he said, "The sisters-in-law agreed to stay for dinner, so I sent someone to Songtao Garden to invite the Crown Prince's wife. She said she had a headache and didn't come to spoil the fun."

Regardless of whether it is true or false, as the master of Yuanyuan Hall, she is very polite and will not be criticized for this in the future.

Master Jiang Wu smiled, leaned over and whispered in her ear: "Madam Wu is so thoughtful, and I am proud of her as your husband."

His breath splashed on her neck when he spoke, and Gu Jinchu couldn't help but shrink her neck. Her voice was soft, and she stretched out her hand to push him, "I want to go back, otherwise the sisters-in-law will tease me again."

As she said this, her fair and delicate neck beneath her clothes turned a peach-pink color.

Master Jiang Wu stood there, watching Jin Chu's back as he walked towards the main room. He noticed a gaze looking at him from the window and nodded in that direction.

As he walked into the main room, Gu Jinchu felt that the heat on his face had not yet dissipated.

At this time, the room was brightly lit and warm like spring.

Zhu Jie'er looked at Aunt Wu's flushed cheeks, raised her head to look at Liu and said, "Mother, it must be too hot in this room. Look, Aunt Wu is sweating too."

Li wiped her son's face with a wet towel, with a teasing look on her face, "The floor heating in the house is not enough to make your fifth aunt sweat. She is just shy."

After the 15th, some courtyards turned off the floor heating in their houses. In Yuanyuan Hall, not only was the floor heating still on, but even the big kang by the window in the west room was still a little warm.

Several young masters and young ladies were at an age where they loved to play and make noises. There was no father to supervise them and their fifth uncle was not around either, so the children's faces turned red from playing.

Ever since she learned that her mother was pregnant, Xian Jie'er no longer dared to let her mother hold her as she used to.

Now, she just snuggles up to her mother, gently holding her mother's arm, her little face full of confusion, and she looks at her mother with clear eyes.

Zhang touched her daughter's head and explained to her with a smile: "Your third aunt meant that your fifth uncle and fifth aunt have a good relationship."

Sister Xian nodded, revealing her small white teeth, "Father and mother have a good relationship, too."

Second aunt often said this, so she remembered it.

The little girl's words made the children's competitive spirit come out. Zhu Jie'er looked very proud and said, "Don't think that my father doesn't smile often outside, he... woo!"

Liu quickly stuffed an orange slice into her little daughter's mouth and winked at her. This little ancestor really dared to say anything.

Zhu Jie'er blinked her big eyes, swallowed the fruit in her mouth, folded her little hands to cover her face, smiled at everyone with curved eyebrows and said nothing.

The eldest daughter Jiang Miaohan's wedding date is approaching. During the mourning period, she rarely goes out and spends most of her time at home quietly doing embroidery.

Today, she and her sister came to Yuanyuan Hall with her mother to discuss embroidery patterns with her fifth aunt.

She pursed her lips and looked at the aunts in the room with a smile, thinking to herself:

It would be great if I could get along so harmoniously with my sisters-in-law when I marry into my husband's family in the future.

The Sixth Young Master Jiang Chengbin looked at his two cousins. They both said that their parents had a good relationship, which was indeed different from what he saw and felt.

Gu Jinchu leaned back on the soft pillow, raised his hand, and told the servants to serve dinner.

Master Jiang Wu had just walked out of Yuanyuan Hall and saw his second brother walking towards him not far away, with his fourth brother holding a bottle of wine next to him.

Then he knew that he didn't need to go to Zhuli Pavilion.

Mr. Jiang's two legitimate sons have already returned to the Imperial College, and Liu is not at Chenxiang Pavilion with her two daughters. He finds it a bit boring to have dinner alone.

The fourth master Jiang from Linfengju also felt bored. The second master Jiang's dinner hadn't been served yet, and the fourth brother came to find him with a bottle of wine.

After the two brothers talked to each other, they realized that the reason they were now alone was because their wives and children stayed in Yuanyuan Hall for dinner.

The two brothers thought about it and decided that it would be dark after dinner and they would have to come and pick up their wives and children, so they might as well have the whole family come over to disturb them. So they decided to have a drink with the fifth brother.

Master Jiang Wu looked at his fourth brother and said with a smile, "Tomorrow morning at the court, you are committing this crime knowingly!" There was a hint of amusement in his eyes.

If the officials of the previous dynasty were not dressed properly, were in poor condition, or had any bad smell on their bodies, they would be reported to the censors if they were not careful.

Fourth Master Jiang raised his arm, with a nonchalant look on his face: "We brothers will finish the bottle after just one sip. Before we get up tomorrow morning, the smell of alcohol on our bodies will be gone!"

It's not often that his wife isn't at home, so how could he give up the chance to have a drink so easily?

With the second and fifth brothers around, one of them is rigid and the other is very obedient. Can the brothers have a simple meal and still drink too much?

Looking at his silent second brother and smiling fourth brother, Uncle Jiang Wu smiled, raised his hand, and invited his two brothers to the outer courtyard of Yuanyuan Hall.

Then he told the people around him to go to Lanyuan to invite the third master over. Then he told someone to go to the small kitchen to greet the masters in the family who were coming to have dinner and not to neglect them.
