Are you worried about her?

Are you afraid that something will happen to her, so you wait for her at the door of your home?

Meng Jinyao was shocked, suddenly raised her head, and looked at him in shock and astonishment.

Under the soft light, the man has clear outlines, long and sparse eyebrows, and his originally gloomy face has returned to calm.

The soft light from the lanterns on both sides reflected in the narrow eyes, which were dyed with a soft color. The eyes were calm and gentle, and mixed with a trace of unnoticeable worry.

Looking at him, Meng Jinyao was dazzled for a moment. She subconsciously lowered her eyes and looked away. She looked away with a slightly panicked look. She leaned her head on the man's chest. Listening to the strong heartbeat, her heart skipped a beat involuntarily. shoot.

Meng Jinyao whispered softly: "Why is my husband so kind to me?"

They were just a couple who met by chance. How could she ask Gu Jingxi to wait for her at home at night?

Gu Jingxi lowered his eyes at her. The little girl didn't know if she felt guilty for not going home at night. At this moment, she was nestling in his arms like a little quail. He raised the corner of his mouth and replied softly: "I just got married. How long will it take to be a widower?"

Meng Jinyao: "..."

She was so moved just now, but now her heart is choked.

She said angrily: "My husband is a Marquis and holds a high position. It's not like he can't get a wife. If you don't have me, you can just marry another one."

Gu Jingxi's face froze, then he chuckled: "I can't take care of you alone. Wouldn't it be a disaster to marry another one?"

Hearing this, Meng Jinyao's expression paused, her lips slightly opened, and in the end she didn't say a word. She hugged his neck with her hands and leaned her head on his chest. She became more drunk, and after a while she started to feel drowsy again, then she felt at ease. Fall asleep against him.

After a moment of silence, Gu Jingxi opened her thin lips, like an old father, and whispered: "Next time Madam goes out, you must leave a message for the maid wherever you go, so that I can know where you are. From now on. Come back early in the evening. It is not safe for the girl to come back too late. If you really want to play with your good sisters later, then bring a few servants who are good at boxing and kung fu to follow you out. Like today, a coachman and two maids, It’s just fine during the day, but it’s not safe enough at night after all.”

When Meng Jinyao heard the sound, she unconsciously said "hmm", nuzzled into his arms, and put her ears on his chest as much as possible, as if this would make her world quieter and her sleep more comfortable.

Gu Jingxi looked down and saw that the eyes of the little girl in his arms were closed. She was probably asleep. What he said just now did not catch the girl at all. She couldn't help but shake her head and laugh. His colleagues envied him for his good fortune. He has an old husband and a young wife. She was beautiful, but he felt that he was taking care of a child. For example, tonight, the child was 'lost' and there was no one there in the middle of the night, so he sent someone to look for her for half the night.

Qingqiu and Ningdong followed him and looked at each other silently. They had to say that the Marquis was actually quite good. Even though there was probably another woman in his heart, he fulfilled his responsibilities as a husband to his wife.

For a moment, Gu Jingxi paused, glanced at the two maids behind him, and asked: "How do you take care of the master? It's so late, but you don't even remind the lady to go home, and you let her drink so much wine."

Qingqiu said hurriedly: "I know my mistake, and I will never do it again."

At this time, Gu Jingxi's eldest follower Zhou Yun came towards him. Seeing the person in his arms, his expression paused: "Master Marquis, Madam is back?"

Gu Jingxi nodded lightly: "Well, let them come back. There is no need to look for them."

-

Wei Ruixuan.

The two masters have not returned yet, and the main room is brightly lit.

Xia Zhu and the maid on night duty heard something moving outside and went out to investigate. As soon as they arrived at the door, they saw the Marquis coming back with his wife in his arms. The two maids were startled.

Xia Zhu glanced at them, stepped forward and asked with concern: "Master Marquis, what's wrong with Madam?"

Gu Jingxi replied: "Madam is asleep, bring in a basin of water and cleanse Madam's face." After that, he ordered the maid on night duty, "Prepare the bath soup."

The two maids responded and went to do it immediately.

Gu Jingxi carried the little girl in. After entering the inner room, he gently put her on the bed. He also found medicinal wine for treating bruises and handed it to Qingqiu. He asked her and Ningdong to apply the medicine to the little girl, and then went directly. Clean room bathing.

Meng Jinyao didn't have any injuries on her body, just a bruise on her arm from landing on the ground, and a sprain on her left foot. The injury on her arm can be easily treated, and the bruise will be gone in a few days. It won't affect anything at all, except for her left ankle. The area is swollen and I probably won't be able to walk for the next few days.

After Gu Jingxi took a bath, he returned to the bedroom, looked at the little girl sleeping soundly, and asked quietly: "Qingqiu, how is Madam? Did you fall seriously?"

Qingqiu said with a slight smile: "Returning to the Marquis, my wife only suffered a bruise on her arm, which is not serious. She just has a sprain in her foot and her ankle is swollen. She may not be able to walk for several days."

Hearing this, Gu Jingxi sat down on the edge of the bed and reached out to pull up the little girl's left trouser leg. Sure enough, he saw a swelling on the ankle. He frowned and ordered: "Bring the medicinal wine."

Qingqiu replied: "Master Hou, this servant has just given medicine to Madam."

Gu Jingxi said softly: "Just dab the medicinal wine on her injured area, but it won't have any effect."

Qingqiu was stunned when he heard this, and thought to himself, could it be that the Marquis wants to give Madam another medicine in person? She did not dare to refuse and hurriedly handed over the medicinal wine that had not yet been put away.

Gu Jingxi poured some medicinal wine into the palm of his hand, then placed his palm on the little girl's red and swollen ankle, pressing, kneading and stroking repeatedly with moderate force.

Qingqiu was stunned for a moment. Although she didn't understand medical science, her intuition told her that the medicinal wine would be effective in this way.

After a while, the little girl woke up from the torture and frowned in pain. She suddenly opened her eyes and saw that it was Gu Jingxi who was applying the medicine to her. He didn't care about being shy and gasped in pain: "Hiss... it hurts." !”

Then he subconsciously wanted to pull his foot back, but the man held it firmly.

She frowned, glared at him, and said in a resentful tone: "Husband, what are you doing? If I don't do something well and you are dissatisfied with me, you can't retaliate against me like this. This is just rubbing the wounds. What's the difference with salt? Hiss, taper, taper...it hurts."

Gu Jingxi glanced at her and said softly: "Apply the medicine, madam, don't move around, just wait for a while, otherwise your leg will not be able to walk for more than a few days. If it is not treated properly, the ankle will be easily sprained in the future."

When Meng Jinyao heard this, she was so frightened that she did not dare to move any more. Even though her face turned pale from the pain, she could not bear it. Her eyes were fixed on the big hand, as if she was extremely eager to end it in the next moment, and she bit her snow-white teeth. Lips, a look of pain and forbearance.

Seeing this, Gu Jingxi was a little surprised and smiled: "It's okay. No one laughs at the child when he cries. Cry when it hurts. Madam, you don't have to bear it."
