Chapter Seventy-Nine: Too Smart
“A’yu, you were so mysterious before, so you wanted to come here!”
After a bumpy journey, Gu Mengyao looked at the sparkling sea in front of her, and the gloomy mood caused by her pregnancy for many days seemed to dissipate at this moment.
As a woman pregnant for the first time, Gu Mengyao bore a lot of pressure.
As her belly bulged day by day, this matter became even more burdensome.
Gu Mengyao was very much looking forward to the child in her womb, but she didn’t know if she could be a good mother.
Gu Mengyao was a little afraid of things in unknown fields.
This was not in line with her personality, but Gu Mengyao didn’t know why she thought this way… it was completely out of her control.
Therefore, when these thoughts pressed on her like a heavy burden, Gu Mengyao wanted to release the pressure by being active… Unfortunately, Gu Yu kept her under strict control, making it difficult for her to even leave the mansion.
Although she knew that Gu Yu was worried about her safety, it made Gu Mengyao feel even more uncomfortable, not knowing how long this kind of life would continue.
Gu Mengyao did not intend to tell Gu Yu about these thoughts, she only planned to bear them silently by herself.
However, thinking carefully now, Gu Yu probably already knew.
So, at this time, he brought her to the seaside to relax…
However, Gu Mengyao did not intend to admit it, and was determined to stick to her story!
Otherwise, her little husband would worry even more, and that would not be good… The business in the capital and some miscellaneous matters, as well as taking care of her every day, these combined were too tiring.
Even if Gu Yu was made of iron, he couldn’t be so tired.
Thinking of this, Gu Mengyao turned her head and smiled at Gu Yu, then took Gu Yu’s hand and said with a smile, “Originally, I thought you were going to take me to admire the osmanthus flowers! I heard they bloom beautifully, and I could pick some to make pastries.”
To distract herself, Gu Mengyao took the initiative to bring up a new topic, which made Gu Yu smile when he heard it.
His little wife!
Sometimes, she was too smart, no wonder she wanted to go east and west.
“We’ll go admire the flowers when we get back, it’s the same.”
Gu Yu reached out with his other hand and stroked Gu Mengyao’s hair. As the smooth hair, like black satin, slipped through his fingers, he couldn’t help but sigh at how good his wife’s hair was!
Shampoo endorsements should come to Gu Mengyao!
“Then what are we going to do now? The weather is getting colder, and if we go into the sea, we might freeze!”
Gu Mengyao did not stop Gu Yu’s hand, but her dark eyes looked at the sea in front of her with some worry, thinking that since they had come, it would be a waste of the bumpy journey if they didn’t do anything!
So, what exactly were they going to do?
Could it be that they had really just come to the seaside to relax by looking at the blue sea in front of them?
“Don’t worry, it’s all prepared, follow me!”
When Gu Yu heard Gu Mengyao’s question, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and then he took Gu Mengyao’s hand and walked towards the seaside.
The maids and servants behind them were carrying jars and shovels, and some servants were even carrying chairs, following closely behind the couple.
When their feet stepped on the soft sand, the seawater occasionally splashed towards their shoes, which made Gu Mengyao very careful to avoid the seawater, so as not to get her shoes wet.
She looked lively and mischievous, like a cute little girl.
The sea in ancient times was not like modern times with various restrictions, so even in summer, Gu Yu dared not go directly into the sea.
If there were any fierce sea beasts in the seawater, it would be dangerous!
So, it was fine to play by the sea.
There was no need to specifically take a boat to fish…
There were also many interesting things on the beach, such as picking up some beautiful shells and small stones, which Gu Mengyao would surely like.
It should be said that women like cute things.
When Gu Yu prepared to take Gu Mengyao out to play, he had chosen several locations and finally decided to bring Gu Mengyao to the seaside.
Besides safety, he also wanted her to relax and do some everyday things.
It was not a life of constant tension and excitement, dancing on the tip of a sword and enjoying the thrill of danger.
This kind of plain romance was also very important for Gu Yu and Gu Mengyao.
At least, Gu Yu wanted Gu Mengyao to experience all kinds of romance and become the happiest woman.
The completion of this goal still required more time, so he planned to spend a lifetime to implement this plan!
“Mengyao, in Yang Family Village, we lived by relying on the mountains, so we didn’t know much about the sea… Now that we have the opportunity to come to the seaside, we should naturally experience the bounty of the sea!”
After Gu Yu finished speaking with a smile to Gu Mengyao, he took the initiative to demonstrate. He took a small shovel and dug a hole in the sand connecting to the sea, then directly inserted the jar into it, and then secured the jar with sand so that it would not be washed away by the seawater.
Next, all they had to do was wait quietly.
“A’yu, what are you doing?”
After Gu Yu buried the jar, not only Gu Mengyao was confused, but the maids and servants who followed were also confused. They didn’t know what their master was doing?
Suddenly burying a jar, they found it very difficult to understand!
However, since Master did this, he must have his reasons… Especially after Miss asked, a definite answer would be given soon!
“This jar can catch octopuses.”
“Octopus?”
Indeed, after hearing Gu Mengyao’s question, Gu Yu looked at Gu Mengyao’s confused and cute face, and couldn’t help but speak immediately.
This kind of octopus jar could attract octopuses that liked narrow spaces to crawl in… This was knowledge Gu Yu had learned from the internet before he transmigrated, and he didn’t know if it would succeed here.
However, who cared!
It didn’t matter if it didn’t succeed, as long as they had fun today!
“Mengyao, you should bury one too, and see if any octopuses crawl in!”
“Okay.”
Seeing Gu Yu look at her with an expectant expression, just like a child, Gu Mengyao couldn’t help but smile and nodded obediently.
Although she didn’t know what an octopus was, since it had the word “fish” attached to it, it must be something from the sea!
It was definitely not something dangerous.
“You don’t need to serve by the side, take the jars you are holding and bury them too!”
While Gu Mengyao was digging the hole seriously, Gu Yu glanced at the surrounding maids and servants and waved them away, telling them to go play.
