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

Everything that happened in the dream came to his mind again, causing the wound on Jiang Wuye's chest to ache slightly, and his originally steady steps became a little unsteady.

His brows were furrowed, beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, and his face looked slightly pale. He walked back to the west room and saw the letter left on the kang table.

Bai Tao followed Master Wu in quietly, and seeing him sitting on the kang with a gloomy face, she said cautiously, "Master Wu, Madam has taken people to Daxing to see Madam Zheng..."

Her voice trembled slightly, and her eyes secretly glanced at Master Jiang Wu from time to time, fearing that she had said something wrong.

Before he could finish his words, a voice of greeting came from the main hall.

It’s Gu Jinchu who is back.

Gu Jinchu, who was already in a good mood when she learned that the Fifth Master had returned, had a bright smile on her fair face.

She stepped into the house and saw Bai Tao standing trembling beside Wu Ye, who looked very bad.

Gu Jinchu said in a gentle voice: "Fifth Master, why did you come back so early today?"

The maids and servants behind her bowed and greeted the Fifth Master after entering the room.

Bai Tao didn't know what she did wrong, and felt that she must have caused trouble. She lowered her head, her eyes reddened, and after greeting the lady, she walked step by step to the side of Sister Bai Shao.

Before they came back, the Fifth Master was so scary.

Master Wu Jiang raised his head, his eyes were deep and red at the corners, and he raised his hand to signal the servants in the room to leave.

He stood up from the big bed by the window, walked over in two or three steps, took Gu Jinchu's wrist and held it in his palm, "Jinchu, where have you been?"

Gu Jinchu had never seen Mr. Jiang Wu with a cold face, and she knew in her heart that he would not hurt her.

She tilted her head slightly, raised her hand, gently stroked the side of his face, and said with a smile: "I missed my mother very much this morning, so I took Bai Zhi and the others to Daxing... Fifth Master, I have good news to tell you!"

Master Jiang Wu was much taller than Gu Jinchu, and holding her against his chest like this felt very oppressive for her.

It is completely different from the strong attitude when two people are deeply in love.

Gu Jinchu frowned slightly before he felt the pain in his wrist, which was held in his palm.

She raised her eyes and stared into his, with a hint of grievance in her sparkling eyes, and said softly: "Husband, you hurt me..."

When Master Jiang Wu heard this, his eyes flashed. He held her in his arms and sat on the edge of the kang. He lowered his head and saw a few red fingerprints on her fair and smooth skin under her sleeves.

His heart was filled with guilt, "Jinchu, I didn't see you when I got home..." He lowered his head and placed a kiss on the inside of her wrist, gently rubbing her reddened wrist with his fingertips covered with thin calluses.

He just thought... he was terrified.

Gu Jinchu saw the red corners of his eyes and coaxed him softly, "I didn't know that Fifth Master would come back so early today. If I had known, I would have sent someone to inform you and we would have come back together."

Master Jiang Wu stretched out his arms, held her sideways in his arms, closed his eyes, took a few deep breaths, and then asked her softly, "Jin Chu, what was the good news you just mentioned?"

Gu Jinchu put her arm around his broad back, resting her head on the uninjured side of his chest, listening to his steady and strong heartbeat, and said, "I just found out when I went to Daxing today that my mother is pregnant... I'm going to be the eldest sister again."

Not only did he know that his mother was pregnant, he also helped his mother drive out the servants from the Xuanping Marquis Mansion.

Princess Changning doesn't know yet that she has touched Qin Lang's sore spot, and the Xie family may have a hard time in the future.

"Master Qin has finally gotten what he wanted." Master Jiang Wu's voice was low and hoarse, "I'm sorry, Jin Chu, I was just impulsive just now."

What happened in the dream still scares him.

Just for a moment, his vision went dark, but he couldn't describe the feeling to her.

"But Fifth Master scared me at that time." Feeling his body instantly become stiff, Gu Jinchu raised his head, looked at his resolute profile and said, "Then punish Fifth Master by making him accompany me for some meals!"

When I came back, I saw Guard Jiang, who said that the Fifth Master was in a hurry to return to Gu'an and had not even had lunch yet.

Jiang Wuye hummed softly, lowered his head and kissed the top of her head. The two of them hugged each other, but forgot the promise they had made to be honest with each other.

After the two of them had a late lunch, Master Jiang Wu took Gu Jinchu's hand and strolled in the courtyard, and unknowingly walked to Madam Jiang's Minghui Hall.

In the courtyard outside Minghui Hall, several wintersweets are blooming proudly, emitting a rich fragrance.

Although it was a period of national mourning, Mrs. Jiang's place was still bustling with activity.

Mr. Jiang Sanye did not enter the government, and I heard that he had stopped all his businesses. He was the most idle among the masters in the family.

In the past, it was always Zhang who took the children to play on the kang. Today, Li was holding a nine-ring chain in her hand, with a smile in her eyes, teasing the Ninth Young Master and Chen Ge'er.

Mr. Jiang San was wearing a black straight suit and sitting in the chair below Mrs. Jiang. In front of him stood the Sixth Young Master, and the Seventh Young Master and the Eighth Young Master were talking with Mrs. Jiang.

After hearing the servant's message, Old Madam Jiang waved for Gu Jinchu to come over and sit down.

There were a lot of women in the room, and with Mr. Jiang San and Mr. Jiang Wu present, it was quite inconvenient to talk.

After paying his respects to his mother, Fifth Master Jiang went to the east room to talk with his third brother and a few young masters under everyone's gaze.

Li looked at her husband's back, then withdrew her gaze and said to Gu Jinchu with a smile, "I haven't seen you for a few days. Your belly seems to be getting bigger."

She was wearing plain clothes and her face was not as heavily made up as before, which made her look younger than her actual age.

Gu Jinchu took the nuts handed over by Madam Jiang with a faint smile on his face, "Maybe it's because I've been wearing too many clothes. I always feel that my appetite has not been very good recently."

Upon hearing this, Liu looked concerned, "I remember when I was pregnant with my first child, I started having morning sickness from the moment I was diagnosed with a slippery pulse. But when I was pregnant with Xuan, I didn't start to feel uncomfortable until the sixth or seventh month... It can be seen that this morning sickness has no regular pattern at all."

Zhang continued, "When I was pregnant with Sister Xian, my taste changed drastically. I thought I was carrying a boy... It's not always the case that sour things are more appetizing."

Zhang only gave birth to a girl, Xian Jie'er, and she never avoided eating sour food during pregnancy, because everyone thought she would give birth to a boy.

After Sister Xian was born, Li often bullied her because of this.

Li also thought of the stupid things she had done in the past, and couldn't help but blurt out, "Fourth sister-in-law, fifth sister-in-law, my family sent some dried shrimps and scallops. If you don't mind, I'll have my maid bring them to you later."

There are many taboos during the mourning period. If Wang had said this, Gu Jinchu would not have continued.

Li is a person who always speaks openly about her words and deeds. She smiled and replied, "That's great. Let's cook a pot of seafood porridge. Just thinking about it makes me hungry."

It was the first time that Li showed goodwill to Zhang. She glanced at her uncomfortably, then quickly looked away.

He laughed dryly, "My mother, my eldest sister-in-law and my second sister-in-law will not be left behind."

Zhang smiled and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Third Sister-in-law." She put her hand on her belly and said, "This baby is really good. There is no morning sickness reaction yet."
