After returning from Yue Jinlou yesterday, Gu Weiliang brought the fish cook back that day and replaced it with the chef of the Gu family. The chef made a good dish, which was particularly suitable for Zhou Yuan's taste, especially the cod tofu, which was smooth and delicious.

Therefore, even though Zhou Yuan was not in high spirits today, he still used a few more dishes, which seemed to have a good appetite to others.

Zhou Yuan was satisfied with his full meal, and the silver chopsticks fell down with a slight click, leaning lazily on the back of the chair.

Qiu Chan smiled and wiped her hands with a veil: "I dragged Master Huang's blessing, if the girl continues to eat like this, her little face must be rounder."

But even though Zhou Yuan had a lunch break, he didn't wait until Gu Weiliang came back.

Fortunately, I didn't wait for him, otherwise I would have gone hungry, Zhou Yuan thought so.

"Miss, I'm going to sit in the garden. Spring has arrived and the flowers are blooming." Qiu Chan saw that Zhou Yuan was not in high spirits and said softly.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yuan shook his head, thought for a while and then instructed her: "Go and take the account book to me, what's going on in the mansion recently?"

Qiu Chan raised her eyebrows and slowed down a little: "There is nothing big in the mansion. It's just that the old lady is sick. I heard that she has been sick for a while. Doctor Yue goes to the clinic every day to prescribe medicine, and it should be cured for a few days."

In fact, Lord Gu already knew about this, but he didn't show anything even though he practiced, so the maids didn't dare to use this tragedy to make things difficult for the girl.

Zhou Yuan held the edge of the table and walked into the yard while slowly asking, "Why are you sick?"

"I don't know, but the mother Wang in Lin'antang said privately that the old lady has not been in good health since she returned from Qinxueyuan that day. She said she was angry. Then mother Wang's mouth should really teach her a lesson." Qiu Chan frowned.

Zhou Yuan sat on the stone bench against the Hechi Chi with his chin. After thinking about it carefully, Gu Weiliang was talking to Sun that day. Even if he was sick, it was Gu Weiliang who was dry.

Seeing her frown, Qiu Chan hurriedly walked further and said, "Miss, don't worry about these unworthy trivial matters, I'll get the account."

If a girl flips it, she will probably be sleepy.

Qiu Chan was right. Zhou Yuan turned over a few pages of the account book and couldn't open his eyes. As he rubbed and rubbed, he barely turned over a few more pages.

Since Gu Li was locked up in Nuanchun Pavilion and Sun fell ill again, the expenses in the mansion have been reduced by a large amount.

Zhou Yuan covered his mouth sleepily and yawned, supporting one hand on his chin and the other hand on the account book. His head tilted towards Hechi. He closed his eyes gently to rest for a while, and then fell asleep deeply.

Qiu Chan didn't dare to disturb her, so she gave a wink to the maids who were watering flowers and sweeping the floor and drove them away.

The warm spring light spreads, and no one walks around the whole garden. Only the spring water is gurgling at the rockery. Occasionally, a few koi in the lotus pond turn over and jump up, leaving only Zhou Yuan's subtle breathing.

Qiu Chan stood upright behind her, watching the girl adjust her sleeping position at some point, pressing half of her face on the account book, and putting her hands on her knees.

Zhou Yuan was awakened by the dimmering light in front of her. She slept until the evening. The originally warm sunlight was gone, and the warm yellow light fell on the table and the ground through the shadows of the Yinxin Tree.

The account book was wrinkled by her sleeping, and Zhou Yuan reached out and pressed it twice.

Qiu Chan poured water for her, Zhou Yuan wet her throat, and subconsciously asked, "Is he back?"

"Mr. Gu? Not yet, it's almost time for dinner, so maybe I'm not back."

Zhou Yuan pursed his lips and didn't say anything, looking confused as if he had just woken up. After a while, he responded: "Oh."

Qiu Chan touched her girl's bun: "Is the girl thinking about Lord Gu?"

Zhou Yuan paused for a moment and slowly shook his head: "No."

Qiu Chan smiled, but did not say it out loud, but only advised her softly: "I saw Zheng Lin today, and looked hurried. Maybe there was something important about official business to do, not to mention that I heard from Mr. Wu that Lord Gu was busy on weekdays and could not see anyone for several days. The girl should be more considerate."

Zhou Yuan grabbed the veil and nodded for a moment.

Finally, as Qiuchan said, Gu Weiliang was busy and could not see anyone. Until the end of the Hai Dynasty, Zhou Yuan was about to go to bed and did not see any movement outside.

She woke up early this morning to see him, and even sent her third brother to him because of Hengyi's affairs.

Zhou Yuan knelt on the bedding, moved his body gently, and buried himself in.

But I don’t know if it was because she had enough sleep during the day, but she didn’t feel sleepy at all. She stared at the top of the bed with her big eyes and blinked one after another.

Suddenly, the footsteps outside were approaching. Zhou Yuan moved his hand half an inch on his stomach, and then he heard Gu Weiliang standing outside the door, as if talking to Zheng Lin.

Maybe she was talking about government affairs. She vaguely heard about military power, and there was also the Yan family in the army. Then the carved door was pushed open halfway. Gu Weiliang was about to enter the door, but when he remembered something, he turned around and asked: "What's wrong with Green Glaze Alley?"

Zhou Yuan heard Zheng Lin's response and said, "Don't worry, Miss Hengyi is surrounded by cautious people, and she is strict with her mouth and will not talk nonsense."

As if he was worried about the people inside, Gu Weiliang responded very quietly, then entered the room and closed the door.

The pearl curtain was lifted up and fell down, and a crisp sound was made in an instant. Gu Weiliang paused and deliberately slowed down a little.

The room was lit with the Anshen Xiang and the fragrant powder used by Zhou Yuan, which smelled surprisingly good.

Gu Weiliang's brows, which had been tense all day, slowly softened, and walked towards the bed while pinching his eyebrows. At this time, the girl should have gone to bed long ago.

He didn't think much about it, picked up the bed curtain and took a look. Suddenly he bumped into Zhou Yuan's too clear eyes, paused, and was surprised for a moment: "Why didn't you sleep?"

Zhou Yuan saw that he looked tired and kept lying down in a straight position, motionless, and pursed his lips: "No sleepy."

Gu Weiliang glanced at her more, and Zhou Yuan closed his eyes when he wanted to speak again.

“…”

Gu Weiliang obviously didn't know where he made the girl unhappy. He sat down calmly for a while and suddenly flicked the bed lightly. Gu Weiliang got up and poured a glass of water.

Zhou Yuan took the opportunity to turn over, turned his back to him, and pressed his hands against his side.

Not long after, a rustling sound came from beside the pear wood shelf. Gu Weiliang took off his robe and changed into bed clothes. Zhou Yuan was closing his eyes tightly when suddenly he felt a piece of the filling in the bed.

A corner of the bedding was lifted up, and before the cold wind could pour in, a body was already firmly blocking her side.

There was a hand crossing the waist, Zhou Yuan paused, reached out and pushed the hand away: "Don't get so close to me."

Gu Weiliang raised his eyebrows, and he could not guess what she was thinking, so he had to ask angrily: "Why?"

Zhou Yuan choked and turned his back to him and bit his lower lip hard: "I think it's my own."

The man behind him was stunned and stared at the girl's exposed half of her white neck. After a long time, he reached out and turned the person over directly under her waist.

"Is it too late for me to return home today?"

Zhou Yuan didn't say anything and didn't look at him. His eyes passed over Gu Weiliang and fell on the floating bed curtain.

"I didn't send anyone to come home to tell me? Wait for me, right? I will remember sending someone to come home in the future." He pinched the girl's index finger, and his attitude of admitting his mistake was very sincere.

When Gu Weiliang got busy, he even turned around day and night. There was no one in the room before, so he was used to not reporting his itinerary with anyone.

However, even though he said so, Zhou Yuan still kept not looking at him.

The man couldn't help but frown, and couldn't think of any other mistakes: "What else? Tell me, I'll change it."

Zhou Yuan gritted his teeth, his jaw tightened, looking like he didn't want to speak.

Sure enough, she slowly moved her gaze to Gu Weiliang, suddenly letting go, and her voice was very small: "I don't want to talk to you now."

“…”

Gu Weiliang's brain hurts, and he really can't do anything to her.

"I really don't say it?" He pinched the girl's chin, and the force was not small, trying to force Zhou Yuan to let go.

Zhou Yuan gritted his teeth tightly, without any sign of letting go. He grabbed Gu Weiliang's wrist with both hands and was about to pull him away.

The two of them competed, one did not let go and the other pulled hard, but Zhou Yuan's strength was no match for Gu Weiliang. After a struggle, he was tired and retracted his hand. As Gu Weiliang looked at him, his eyes turned red inch by inch.

Gu Weiliang was stunned and silent for a while: "If you don't say it, you can only hold it in your heart and feel uncomfortable."

He slowly let go of his hand, Zhou Yuan's choking sound filled with sobs in his throat. She held the bedding tightly, and after a long time, she spoke: "Heng Yi is the lover of the third brother, I should help her."

Gu Weiliang stared at her: "You are helping her."

"No." The little girl raised her eyes and retorted: "It was you who took care of her. When you were in Yue Jinlou, you left her behind, and you personally ordered Zheng Lin to arrange her and take care of her."

Gu Weiliang was silent for a long time: "Zhou Yuan, she may be--"

"Maybe it is General Yan's daughter and the queen's sister. I don't know what you want to do with Hengyi, but she has a big belly and is pregnant for more than seven months. She is about to give birth, but you placed her in the house under the Gu family's name."

Zhou Yuan didn't continue to say it, but it was enough to let Gu Weiliang know what she meant.

Zhou Yuan had this thought, and he was indeed a little surprised. The little girl never worried about things, but she didn't expect her to be so careful this time.

He said with a serious expression: "Don't worry, the people in Green Glaze Alley are so strict that they will not spread or make people misunderstand. I have given all the instructions."

Zhou Yuan looked at him quietly: "Mama Wu will misunderstand, and the servants of Green Glaze Alley will misunderstand."

Gu Weiliang paused slightly, but did not answer Zhou Yuan's words for a while.

Zhou Yuan sat up on the bed, the bedding slid off her shoulders, and her long hair was draped on her thin bedding: "When I got married, the Zhou family had dowry many villages and houses. Hengyi's affairs should have been handled by me and placed by me, but you have never asked me."

Gu Weiliang's eyebrows were deep, and he stood up and sat next to her: "I'm afraid I'll be tired of you, Zhou Yuan, you just need to eat and drink well in the mansion and let people serve you well, and don't worry about anything else."

Zhou Yuan frowned: "I was there when something happened to Hengyi. Did you ask me when you placed her? You didn't, you didn't think of me at all. In your eyes, I'm just a cat raised by the Gu family. I'm waiting for you to come back and have a meal with you to sleep with you."

"I didn't." He subconsciously retorted.

"You have it." Zhou Yuan said seriously: "When my second brother-in-law encounters things, he will tell the second sister, and his father will discuss with his mother. Although I am not as good as my mother and I am not as good as my second sister, I can learn, and I will learn very seriously."

Gu Weiliang pursed his lips. He had never expected the little girl to have such an idea before, but for him, she was about to be hidden in the back house, and people were coaxed in pain and should not worry about those trivial matters that made people feel upset.
