After Ye Qinglan said this, Ye Qingfu's restless mood finally calmed down a bit. After thinking about it, she said aggrievedly: "But why hasn't he told me the truth?"
Ye Qinglan said gently, "If my guess is correct, maybe he feels that the matter has not been settled yet, and is afraid that you will be disappointed in him, so he is embarrassed to tell you directly."
Men all have self-esteem. Xue Yushu is certainly no exception.
After being comforted in this way, Ye Qingfu felt much better and finally smiled: "What you said makes sense. Then I won't ask anymore. Anyway, he will tell me the truth one day. In fact, I don't know how to do it at all."
It doesn’t matter what he does. It doesn’t matter if he wants to be an official or a businessman. As long as he is happy.”
Looking at Ye Qingfu's radiant pretty face, Ye Qinglan pursed her lips and smiled. Xue Yushu was really lucky to be able to marry Ye Qingfu. Only Ye Qingfu could love him so regardless of anything.
[
The two sisters chatted for a long time, and the more they talked, the more they talked. Ms. Xue sat aside and didn't say much. Towards the evening, Ms. Xue and Ms. Zheng led Ye Qingfu to say goodbye to everyone.
That night, Ye Qinglan talked about what happened during the day in front of Gu Xinian.
"...I'm not surprised that mother came. I didn't expect that my eldest aunt also came here specially and brought many gifts, including a century-old ginseng with all beards and tails." Ye Qinglan smiled at first, then frowned slightly with her delicate brows.
: "I always feel that this gift seems a bit too heavy."
Seeing her cute expression of frowning and thinking, Gu Xinian couldn't help but laugh, and pinched her nose affectionately: "What's so difficult about this, Your Highness, don't come here to read the full text. Such behavior must have been instructed by your grandfather,
Let your eldest aunt express her goodwill to us in the name of coming to congratulate us. She is also showing her goodwill to the prince in disguise."
Ye Qinglan's confused mind suddenly became clear: "Yes, it must be like this." Then she thought of something and became a little depressed again. The mood changed so quickly that it was staggering.
Gu Xinian quickly softened his voice and coaxed: "You said it well, why are you upset again? Did your mother say something unpleasant again today?"
Ye Qinglan shook her head and replied glumly: "My mother behaved very appropriately today. Not only did she not say anything harsh, she also had a pleasant chat with my mother-in-law."
So why are you suddenly unhappy?
At this moment, Gu Xinian deeply realized what it means to be pregnant. Ye Qinglan is usually angry and will only be more eloquent to fight with him. He is also used to that way of getting along. But he is unhappy and depressed like this now.
It was very rare, and coaxing people was not his specialty. For a moment, the wise and powerful Gu Shilang also felt at a loss. He simply asked straightforwardly: "Lan'er, why are you unhappy? As long as
You tell me who offended you, and I will go find her immediately to settle the score!"
Even though Ye Qinglan was in a low mood, she was amused and smiled a little. Then she sighed quietly: "Gu Xinian, why did I become so stupid as soon as I got pregnant? I can't even figure out what was so simple just now.
If you hadn't told me to break this layer, I would have wanted to have sex all night..."
Just for this?!
Gu Xinian didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and gently and carefully held her in his arms: "It turns out it's just for such a trivial matter, what's there to be unhappy about? It's inevitable that you're pregnant now, so your reaction will be slower than before. You won't be able to do anything in the future.
Don't think too much, just take care of your baby with peace of mind. Leave all these mental things to me."
Ye Qinglan let out a dull sigh, obviously still worried about the fact that he had not figured it out.
This is probably also a worry that smart people have. For example, Ye Qingfu, after being pregnant, she just ate and slept every day without thinking about anything at all, so she didn't know how happy she was.
Of course, Gu Xinian would not be stupid enough to say what he was thinking, so he changed the subject with a smile: "By the way. Your second sister is here today too! What did you two sisters say when they were together?"
Ye Qinglan's mood was indeed a little better, and she learned what she and Ye Qingfu had said today to Gu Xinian. Gu Xinian listened absently, feeling secretly funny in his heart.
I heard that pregnant women are very emotional, and this is indeed true. For more than half a month before she was aware of her pregnancy, Ye Qinglan's mood was prone to fluctuations. This is even more true now. Every little thing will make her happy or happy.
Unhappy, my mind is far less calm and flexible than before. Speaking seems to have become a lot more trivial...
But in his eyes, Ye Qinglan like this is also very cute.
Gu Xinian lowered his head slightly. Looking at his little wife who was extremely dependent on him, the corners of his lips raised.[
Ye Qinglan was completely unaware that she was different from usual: "...the second sister said that cousin Xue has been drinking and socializing outside every day recently, and when asked, he refused to tell who he was with. So the second sister is very worried!"
Gu Xinian smiled meaningfully.
After Ye Qinglan became pregnant, her reaction was slower than before. After a moment of confusion, she asked uncertainly: "Don't you know what Cousin Xue is busy with every day?"
Gu Xinian responded casually: "Of course I know. Because I was the one who helped him find the job."
Errand? Ye Qinglan was stunned: "Didn't Cousin Xue want to learn to do business? Why did you find an errand for him again?"
"The errand I'm talking about is not an official position." Gu Xinian explained patiently: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a lot of properties in his name, and the steward in the Prince's Mansion is usually responsible for taking care of them. That steward is now older.
, the energy is not enough to deal with this mess. Therefore, the prince wants to find someone to take charge of this matter."
Just at this time, Xue Yushu expressed the idea of going into business again, so Gu Xinian introduced the latest chapter of Xue Yushu's Perfect World in front of the prince. It was the same as taking care of business and working for the prince, but of course it was completely different. First of all,
Not to mention the benefits that will come in the future, just saying that he has become a close subordinate of His Highness the Crown Prince, even if he does not have any official position, it will definitely be a smooth road to success.
After hearing these words, Ye Qinglan's first reaction was to frown: "Can he do this kind of thing?"
Gu Xinian smiled and raised his eyebrows: "Why can't he do it? No one is born to be good at anything. As long as you work hard, you can do it well."
That makes sense. Ye Qinglan was a little ashamed of what she just blurted out.
But I heard Gu Xinian continue to say: "After I introduced His Highness the Crown Prince for him, His Highness the Crown Prince asked him to learn from the chief steward for a while. After he became familiar with all the affairs, he would slowly hand over some affairs to
On him. If he can do well, in the next two or three years, he will be able to take charge of most of the shops under the Prince's Mansion."
Of course, such an important matter cannot be accomplished overnight. Just getting to know all the shopkeepers and accountants and being familiar with the industries each shop operates is enough for Xue Yushu. Therefore, Xue Yushu will be busy socializing with a bunch of stewards all day long.
Ye Qinglan thought for a while and suddenly laughed: "With Cousin Xue's temperament, he can hold back for so long without telling the truth. It's really impressive."
It’s not hard to guess Xue Yushu’s thoughts. Not everyone can be the chief steward around the prince. If you do it well, you will certainly be successful. But if you don’t have the ability to do it, you will be really embarrassed. So.
Before he was sure that he could take over, he refused to tell Ye Qingfu and Xue about the matter at all. From this point of view, Xue Yushu had indeed become much more mature and improved than before.
"More than that, his performance in these days is also remarkable." Gu Xinian, who rarely praises others, gave Xue Yushu a rare compliment: "I heard from the chief manager that he is humble, hard-working, and has made great progress.
The big and small bosses all have a good impression of him."
Ye Qinglan pursed her lips and smiled: "A ruler is short and an inch is long. This sentence is absolutely true. Cousin Xue has no talent in reading, but he is very comfortable in dealing with people." Although the big and small stewards are slaves,
As a servant in the prince's palace, they are all people who are accustomed to seeing wealth and honor. Although they are respectful and honest when facing their master, they may not be easy to get along with in private. Xue Yushu can become familiar with everyone in a short period of time, or
Somewhat capable.
Gu Xinian smiled and nodded: "I only helped in the beginning, and never interfered in anything later. If he is really serious, he will naturally do his best."
Of course, with Gu Xinian's "help" from the beginning, those bright-eyed stewards did not dare to stumble Xue Yushu in private. That's why Xue Yushu went so smoothly.
There is no need for Gu Xinian to explain the reason in detail, Ye Qinglan also knows it clearly. With Gu Xinian's temperament, he is willing to do this for Xue Yushu, in the final analysis, it is for her face...
"Thank you!" Ye Qinglan raised her eyes and said softly.
Gu Xinian glanced at her with some dissatisfaction: "Do you still need to be polite to me? He is also your brother-in-law. As long as he is determined to make progress, it is not difficult to give him a little help. Okay, you can't do anything.
Don't think about it too much. From now on, you can rest peacefully in the house and leave everything to me." No matter how gentle he tried to be, the domineering tone in his tone could not be concealed.
The strange thing is that Ye Qinglan didn't feel unhappy at all, and couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips.[
Gu Xinian looked at the sweet smile blooming on the corner of her lips, and his heart suddenly felt excited. Just as he was about to lower his head, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind, and he couldn't help but sigh.
The first three months of a woman's pregnancy is the most dangerous time, and she can't even think about the joy of clouds and rain...
These days, he was immersed in the surprise of Ye Qinglan's pregnancy, and he didn't even have time to think about this problem. He didn't realize it until this moment. In the next few months, wouldn't he have to be "vegetarian" all the time?
It’s hard to describe the feeling of having to go vegetarian for several months after trying some amazing delicacies.
