Reborn as a bride, pretending to be virtuous, the prince held his waist and regretted

Male beauty is alluring, but also irresistible.

Gu Xiling forced herself to remain calm and said angrily, "It hurts, just be quiet. Remember, my knees are mine, my legs are mine, everything is mine."

"If you don't take care of yourself, I won't allow it. Remember?"

Zhou Jin's heart and eyes were filled with Gu Xiling. He rubbed Gu Xiling's cheek like a big dog, "Remember, my wife. My wife is so good. I am so lucky to marry her."

"Then lie down and go to sleep. If you dawdle again, I'll kick you out." Gu Xiling pushed Zhou Jin with her little fist, telling him to stop dawdling.

Zhou Jin knew that Gu Xiling always kept her word, and if she said she would kick him out, she would really kick him out.

He didn't want to be alone in the empty room, he wanted to stay.

After lying down obediently, Zhou Jin quickly patted the place beside him and said, "My wife, you have worked hard. Go to sleep quickly."

Gu Xiling tidied up her messy undershirt and lay down.

Zhou Jin immediately moved closer to Gu Xiling, "Madam, it's dark, you must be scared."

Gu Xiling punched Zhou Jin's chest with her fist, "Can you be quiet for a while? There's still ointment on your knees. It's hot in the room, and it's uncomfortable to be too close."

Zhou Jin felt aggrieved, but there was someone else around him, and it was someone he liked, so it was really hot!

I'm hot all over!

"Crack" there was thunder outside, "boom" and then it started to rain heavily.

When Gu Xiling heard the thunder, she shivered with fear, curled up her body, and even covered her head with a thin blanket.

Seeing this, Zhou Jin asked cautiously, "Are you afraid of thunder?"

"I'm not afraid!" Gu Xiling, who had been strong all her life, answered without thinking. But just as she finished speaking, there was a loud noise outside, and she was so scared that she slipped into Zhou Jin's arms.

Holding the warm and soft beauty in his arms, Zhou Jin was both happy and distressed. He lay on his side, letting Gu Xiling rest her head on him, and put his other hand on Gu Xiling's back, patting her gently.

"Don't be afraid, Ling'er!"

Maybe it was Zhou Jin's warm embrace, or maybe it was Zhou Jin's soft voice, Gu Xiling was no longer afraid of the thunder outside. She gradually calmed down and fell into a deep sleep.

Even if Zhou Jin had thousands of romantic thoughts, at this moment they all turned into love and care for Gu Xiling.

He guessed that when Gu Xiling was a child, she was not loved by her adoptive parents, and rainy days were even more dangerous and survival was even more difficult.

This time, Zhou Jin guessed right.

When Gu Xiling was a child, her thatched hut collapsed during a thundering night and she was trapped underneath.

The adoptive parents took their biological child and fled to the mountains, not caring about Gu Xiling at all.

Gu Xiling could only use her little hands to dig and scrape a little at a time. Amid the rumbling thunder, she crawled out of the ruins and escaped death.

The next morning, Gu Xiling woke up feeling refreshed.

I no longer have that heavy head feeling I had on rainy nights, but instead I feel completely relaxed after a good night's sleep.

Gu Xiling opened her eyes and saw a different environment than usual. She found herself in Zhou Jin's arms, with her legs resting on Zhou Jin's body.

No wonder my legs feel so comfortable!

Gu Xiling raised her head slightly, and rested her forehead on Zhou Jin's chin. She could see Zhou Jin's clear jawline.

Gu Xiling then remembered that during the night when there was lightning and thunder, she snuggled into Zhou Jin's arms and miraculously fell asleep.

Gu Xiling's eyes showed joy, she had discovered another good thing about Zhou Jin.

From now on, if it rains, thunders and lightnings, she will get Zhou Jin into her bed even if she has to cheat and deceive.

She can sleep well!

Gu Xiling's eyes fell on Zhou Jin's handsome face. He was truly as handsome as a jade and had a graceful demeanor.

She reached out and touched Zhou Jin's eyebrows and nose, and then her fingers fell on Zhou Jin's thin lips.

But the scene suddenly changed. Zhou Jin opened his mouth mischievously and bit Gu Xiling's finger.

"Ah!" Gu Xiling exclaimed, and quickly retracted her finger, "You woke up, but you were still pretending to be asleep."

"If I don't pretend to be asleep, how can I know that my wife loves me?" Zhou Jin hugged Gu Xiling and was in such a good mood when he woke up in the morning!

Gu Xiling held down Zhou Jin's hand that was about to cause trouble, "It's time to get up. We have to go to the government office later."

Hearing the noise inside, Xiulan asked softly, "Madam, I am coming in?"

"Come in." Gu Xiling said with a smile, "Ask the kitchen to prepare some porridge for the prince to relieve internal heat and clear away heat."

"Yes, Madam Crown Prince." The maid responded.

Lai Fu was outside the screen, serving Zhou Jin.

Lai Fu washed Zhou Jin's face and shaved off the beard that had just grown in the morning, with a smile on his face.

The prince finally entered the palace.

After breakfast, Gu Xiling sent Zhou Jin away and let Manager Liu in.

"Manager Liu, it has been raining for days. Has there been any disaster outside?" Gu Xiling asked. There was a strong wind and heavy rain last night, and the houses were blown down.

Manager Liu replied respectfully, "Madam, the situation in the city is better, but many people outside the city live in thatched houses that cannot withstand the wind and rain. As soon as the city gates are opened today, we will send people out to investigate."

"The moat was urgently dredged this year, and the river outside was also cleared in time. Even if it rains more than last year, it won't flood back. It's just that..."

Gu Xiling asked with a serious expression: "Just what? Manager Liu, just say what you want to say."

Manager Liu replied, "It's just that we have a farm in the west of the city, which is relatively low-lying. The harvest may not be good this year. If it continues to rain, there may be an epidemic."

Gu Xiling felt distressed, because that was a farm of thousands of acres!

But if the fields were flooded this year and the harvest was poor, we could still harvest next year. But if the people were gone, it would be the end.

"Manager Liu, please quickly bring some medicinal herbs and send a few carts over there. Tell the farmers over there to reinforce their houses as soon as possible. Oh, and send some more quicklime."

"Don't drink cold water, drink boiled water. Cover your mouth and nose when you go out. If you see dead things, don't eat them, they will burn you."

Manager Liu agreed, "I would like to thank the Crown Prince's wife for her grace on behalf of the farmers."

Gu Xiling waved her hands, "They are all my farmers. They usually farm for me and make money. Now that we are facing a disaster, I have to help them get through this difficult time."

Manager Liu had gratitude in his eyes and admiration in his heart.

With a master like this, even if he dies for his master, his master will not treat his wife and children badly.

After seeing off Manager Liu, it started raining outside again.

Gu Xiling wore clogs and held an umbrella as she headed towards the main courtyard.

"Greetings to mother." Gu Xiling came in and bowed. "It has been raining continuously, I am afraid there will be an epidemic. Is there any farm in the mansion that is relatively low in terrain?"

Song was startled and looked outside, "That shouldn't be the case, right?"

Gu Xiling persuaded softly, "Mother, many of the guards in our mansion are selected from farmers, and the maids and servants also have families on the farm. Regardless of whether they are infected with the epidemic or not, we should prepare some things and send them over to let the farmers know that we, as masters, care about them."

Song smiled and nodded, "You're right, I'll ask someone to buy some medicine."

Gu Xiling shook her head. "Mother, you don't have to buy anything else. I bought herbs and quicklime from other places at low prices, and copied a set of epidemic prevention methods from ancient books. I'm giving it to you now."

Song was astonished, "Xi Ling, why did you think of buying medicinal herbs? You don't seem to have any business in this area."
