Female Master: Why doesn’t my wife love me yet?

Chapter 205 Fish Intestine Sword

Now, isn’t this causing trouble for myself?

The fourth princess Wen Ruozhi looked at the baby girl whose face was almost purple from crying, and she really couldn't understand why a child could cry so much.

She has now been driven out of the capital by her mother, the Queen Mother, and can only live in other places. Once she enters the capital, someone will discover her.

Last time, she was able to succeed because the man lived in a remote place.

Wen Ruozhi picked up the baby girl and coaxed her impatiently, "Child, if you cry again, I will kill you, believe it or not?"

But the baby girl didn't understand what she said at all. She only knew that she was very hungry, so she opened her mouth and started crying again.

The sound of her crying made people feel irritated, and Wen Ruozhi thought of suffocating her with a pillow.

But when she saw those wet eyes, the only remaining humanity in her heart told her to forget it.

She also wants to use this child to take revenge on the princess.

After much thought, she sold her earrings and exchanged them for some goat milk and clean clothes for the child.

Looking at the baby girl who stopped crying after drinking milk, Wen Ruozhi felt much quieter in her ears.

After the empress drove the fourth princess out of the capital, she left her to fend for herself and no longer sent anyone to keep an eye on her.

However, if she set foot in the capital, someone would immediately report it.

For the sake of this child, the fourth princess took the initiative to control her temper and found some work to support the child.

She told herself it was all about revenge.

"Well, it seems I haven't named you yet." Wen Ruozhi looked at the baby girl who was going to sleep after eating, thinking.

"You cry every day as if you were made of water, so I'll call you Xiaoshui."

It’s Lantern Festival in a blink of an eye.

On this day, all unmarried men and women in the city would come to the streets to watch the lantern festival.

Especially at night, the capital city becomes even more lively.

This is Gu Qingyuan's first New Year celebration here, and she plans to join in the fun.

Ji Mingzhao is about to give birth, and she doesn't dare take him out for fear of accidents.

However, she would often go to see him and tell him not to stay in bed all the time for the next few days, but to get out and walk around, which would be beneficial for delivery.

"Hey, slow down, slow down..."

Gu Qingyuan helped him down and let him put his arm on her, moving very carefully.

After Ji Mingzhao got off the bed, Gu Qingyuan kicked the stool beside the bed away, for fear that he would trip.

Seeing that Gu Qingyuan was even more cautious than him, Ji Mingzhao smiled and said, "Wife, why do I feel like you are more nervous than me?"

Gu Qingyuan straightened up and poked his temple with her finger. "You're talking nonsense. I heard that giving birth is a life-threatening experience. This is my first child, so of course I'm nervous."

It turned out that she was worried about the child.

Ji Mingzhao felt a little uncomfortable. So, was her kindness to him also based on the child?

Gu Qingyuan helped him walk around the house. She heard that if he exercised more, the childbirth would be easier and not too painful.

Many people don’t want to move after they become pregnant, which makes childbirth much more difficult.

After walking a few steps, Ji Mingzhao stopped and said breathlessly: "My dear wife, I am very tired and want to rest for a while."

"Good good."

Gu Qingyuan quickly helped him sit down, took out a towel to wipe his sweat, and asked him, "Would you like some tea?"

She poured a cup of tea for Ji Mingzhao, tested the temperature of the cup with her hand, and only brought it to his mouth after making sure it was not too hot.

After drinking half a cup, he refused to drink any more and asked Gu Qingyuan, "Wife, today is the Lantern Festival, don't you want to go out and take a look?"

"If you want to go out, wait until night. There's nothing fun to do during the day."

Gu Qingyuan put down the teacup and said.

After spending the whole afternoon with Ji Mingzhao, Gu Qingyuan went out in the evening.

Every household hangs red lanterns. At this time, children run around on the streets holding lanterns, and vendors shout to sell Yuanxiao and sugar figurines.

Gu Qingyuan felt as if all the people in Beijing had come out tonight, otherwise why would there be so many people on the streets?

Chunfen followed her, his eyes full of excitement.

"Young Master, it's so lively tonight!"

"Yeah, I think it should be fun." Gu Qingyuan replied.

When they reached the place where candy figures were sold, Gu Qingyuan bought two candy figures in the shape of small animals and gave one to Chunfen.

Chunfen took the sugar figure and said, "It's so beautiful, I can't bear to eat it."

"If you don't want to eat it, just give it to me."

As he spoke, Gu Qingyuan pretended to snatch the sugar man from Chunfen's hand.

There is no reason to give back something you have already got. Chunfen quickly dodged and took the opportunity to stuff the candy man into his mouth.

It seems to be saying, I have already eaten it, let’s see how you can snatch it away.

The master and servant walked while enjoying the beautiful scenery of the night market.

There are especially many masked men on the streets, as if they are looking for their ideal wives.

"Young Master Gu."

A familiar voice was heard, and then Gu Qingyuan saw Lin Xinghe, whom he had not seen for some time.

But he had a ribbon tied around his neck. It wasn't that cold on the Lantern Festival, and even at night, he didn't need to cover his neck.

But since it was someone else's private matter, Gu Qingyuan didn't ask any more questions and nodded at him, "It's you."

After seeing Gu Qingyuan, Lin Xinghe had a complicated expression, as if he had a lot to say to her.

But in the end, he said nothing, put on his best attitude, and asked her: "I wonder if Master Gu could walk with me?"

"Okay, since we've met, let's go shopping together."

Lin Xinghe was followed by a servant who looked to be about the same age as him.

The streets were full of people guessing riddles. Gu Qingyuan picked the one with the most children and squeezed through.

Before Lin Xinghe could react, he saw Gu Qingyuan leave him and go to guess riddles.

Gu Qingyuan looked at the sword hanging there with great interest. It was called Yuchang Sword, one of the ten famous swords.

The pattern on its body looks like fish intestines, hence the name "Yuchang Sword". However, these are not raw fish intestines, but patterns that resemble fish bones.

The boss looked at the people gathered here and posed a riddle, "If anyone can answer it, I will give him this Yuchang sword."

Everyone urged the boss to speak quickly, but he said slowly, "Everyone, please listen carefully..."

"There's this person who looks just like you, eats the same food and wears the same clothes as you. But he's not your twin, and he doesn't appear when it's raining or cloudy. Guess what he is?"

As soon as the boss said this, there was a lot of discussion among the people.

"How can they look the same if they're not twins? Are you kidding us, boss?"

"Yeah, if you don't want to send it, just say so. Why tease us?"

"I'm not teasing you," the boss defended himself. "If no one guesses it, I'll have to keep this Yuchang sword for myself."

"I know."

Gu Qingyuan stood up and said calmly.

"What is it?"
