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

The Jiang family's ancestral home is in the countryside of Gu'an. Gu Jinchu is now in the late stage of pregnancy. Although the journey is not far, it is inevitably a bit bumpy.

Old Madam Jiang and Mr. Jiang Wu were both worried about her going, so they kept her at home.

When Jiang Wuye returned to Duke Dingguo's mansion, Gu Jinchu was still asleep. The curtains of the Luohan bed were raised high, and there was a window in the inner room for ventilation.

The gauze curtains swayed gently, and the air was filled with a faint scent of flowers.

In this afternoon with an orange sunset and gentle breeze, she was covered with a thin quilt and leaning on a soft pillow.

Her fair and delicate face was as delicate as warm jade. At this moment, her expression was peaceful and calm, her breathing was steady and long, and her long eyelashes cast a faint shadow on her face.

It is as beautiful as a quiet painting.

Master Jiang Wu came quietly from behind the partition and saw this scene. He couldn't help but pause and his heart softened instantly.

Bai Shao was lying on the table on the platform of the bed. When she heard the noise, she turned around and saw the Fifth Master coming back. She hurriedly got out of the bed.

Master Jiang Wu raised his hand to signal her to be quiet and not to disturb Jin Chu.

Bai Shao understood, bowed, and quietly left.

Master Jiang Wu walked over slowly and sat down beside the bed. Seeing that Jin Chu still hadn't woken up, he took off his coat, climbed onto the bed, and carefully lay down beside her.

When Gu Jinchu woke up, the sky outside the window was dark and dim candlelight was flickering in the room.

"Awake?" The deep voice of Master Jiang Wu came from above my head.

Gu Jinchu raised his head and met his downward gaze.

Seeing that he was wearing a thin inner garment, she stretched out her hands and put them around Master Jiang Wu's neck, with surprise in her eyes and a sweet voice, "Master Wu, when did you come back?"

"You were sleeping soundly when I came back, so I didn't wake you up." Master Jiang Wu smoothed her black hair and whispered in her ear.

His breath gently brushed past her ear, instantly tinging her ear bone with a faint crimson color.

Gu Jinchu rubbed his neck, the itchiness of his hairy hair and skin went straight to his heart.

Master Jiang Wu lowered his head, placed a kiss on the top of her head, and gently stroked her back from top to bottom with his big palm.

Gu Jinchu leaned over and hugged him, her breath filled with the familiar scent of his body. No wonder she had slept for so long.

She didn't stay in bed for too long. After she sat up, she lowered her eyes and looked at Master Jiang Wu who was lying there, smiling softly, "It's getting late. I'll have someone arrange dinner!"

The Fifth Master attended the morning court today, and then went to worship the ancestors with his father and brothers. After all this, he must have felt tired.

Master Jiang Wu sat up from the bed, pulled her into his arms, his eyes full of doting, "When I came back, I asked the kitchen to roast a few pigeons. Didn't you say you wanted to eat some before you went to bed yesterday?"

Gu Jinchu bit her lower lip lightly and glanced at Fifth Master's expression, then struggled in his arms without leaving any trace.

The arm around her waist was wrapped around her like a shadow, making her look at him anxiously and shamefully.

But I saw that the smile in his eyes was getting deeper and deeper, and the curve of the corners of his lips became more and more obvious.

Then I felt Master Jiang Wu standing up from the edge of the bed, and I lay sideways like this, being held firmly and firmly in his arms.

His low laughter rang in his ears, causing Gu Jinchu to tighten his arms around his shoulders and neck.

Seeing Master Wu striding towards the bathroom, her cheeks instantly turned rosy, and even the porcelain-white skin under her collar turned light pink.

"I'll carry you over and let the servants come to serve you." Master Jiang Wu knew what she was thinking and put her down. He whispered and turned to walk out of the bathroom.

When Gu Jinchu returned to the west room, the candles in the room had already been lit, making the room dim and warm.

Bai Shao waited on the lady as she entered the house, then turned around and ordered dinner to be served.

On the big kang by the window, Jiang Wuye was leaning on her usual soft pillow, with a relaxed and elegant posture. In her hands was the embroidery she had not yet finished in the basket.

Jiang Wuye always had a hot body. After Qingming Festival, the weather would become even hotter. What she had not yet finished was the inner garment she was sewing for him. Only the finishing touches were left.

The candlelight flickered, and the soft light cast a faint halo on Mr. Jiang Wu's angular profile, making his outline even deeper.

After hearing the footsteps, Master Jiang Wu slowly raised his head and looked over, his deep eyes and brows filled with intoxicating tenderness and sweetness.

He stretched out his hand and took Gu Jinchu's hand as he walked over, saying in a low voice: "Put away the basket after you finish what you have in your hands."

After she sat down, she said to her, "Sitting still and embroidering like this will hurt your eyes and waist."

His words were full of pity and love. Although he felt happy and comforted, he still didn't want her to get tired.

Gu Jinchu nodded. After all the things for delivery were prepared, she remembered that the season had changed and had no time to care about Fifth Master.

She spent seven or eight days making this undergarment, and planned to stop working on it once she was done.

Since her husband said so, she would not refute it.

Seeing how well behaved she was, Master Jiang Wu raised his hand and gently stroked her belly. In about two months, he and Jin Chu's children would be here...
