Chapter 109: A ‘Love Education’
After curing the mysterious illness that weakened people in the capital, the ‘Exotic Charm’ opera house’s epidemic incident came to an end.
Even the Holy Cult’s Saintess, along with her subordinates, had fled, and the plan to harm the high officials of the capital was stillborn, with no chance of being implemented again.
As for whether they would return in the future, it was no longer Gu Yu’s concern!
After a long tug-of-war, they finally achieved victory, and Gu Yu was able to relax, focusing on waiting for the Lunar New Year.
There were only a few days left until the end of the year, and after the emperor’s rewards were sent to the Gu Residence on time, Gu Yu happily received dozens of gold bars and an imperial decree.
Looking at the bright yellow gold bars placed before him, Gu Yu’s lips twitched. He thought that if the emperor continued to bestow such rewards, his space would be filled with imperial bestowed gold bars!
From fighting with gold bars at the beginning, it had now progressed to being able to smash people with gold bars!
However, unlike Gu Yu’s dejection at seeing more gold bars as rewards, Gu Qing was now beaming with pride!
Although his son-in-law was a live-in one, it couldn’t be helped that Gu Yu was so capable!
It was impossible to find such a capable son-in-law even with a lantern, so Gu Qing couldn’t help but feel delighted. Even when he went to court the next day, he had a smiling face towards the old geezer Wang Xu.
This disgusted Wang Xu so much that he didn’t want to see Gu Qing’s smug face, leading him to show Gu Qing his proud back until before the end of the court assembly.
Even after the court assembly, when some ministers congratulated Gu Qing, Wang Xu quickly left to avoid being pestered by Gu Qing.
Hmph, so his son-in-law cured the mysterious illness! What’s there to be so proud of?
No matter how close a son-in-law is, he’s not his own son. Even if he’s a live-in one, it’s the same!
Wang Xu thought these things with a sour heart. After returning to his residence, he strolled leisurely in the back garden with his hands behind his back. Looking at his bevy of beautiful daughters, he wondered if he should also summon some live-in sons-in-law. Then, he could anger that old scoundrel Gu Qing!
Gu Qing, after seeing Wang Xu flee in disgrace, felt incredibly pleased. He even ate two extra bowls of rice when he went home for lunch.
This made Gongsun Feifei very puzzled. What good thing had Gu Qing encountered today that made his appetite so good?
“Mengyao, after we finish eating, shall we go out for a stroll?”
“Mm, okay.”
“What! Brother-in-law, I want to go too!!! Sister Xia Tian, let’s all go out for a stroll!”
“Why are you everywhere?”
While eating, Gu Yu ate the food in his bowl while looking at his beautiful little wife. Suddenly, his heart felt restless, as if it were growing grass.
It would be too much of a waste to stay at home on such a good opportunity!
It had snowed a couple of days ago, and now was a good time to enjoy the snow scenery, why not…
With this thought, Gu Yu leaned close to Gu Mengyao’s ear and told her that he wanted to take her out for a stroll tomorrow.
Unfortunately, before Gu Mengyao could reply, Gu Qingheng, who was sitting nearby with sharp ears, heard Gu Yu’s words and immediately excitedly agreed on behalf of Gu Mengyao, including himself.
This made Gu Yu’s mouth twitch in speechlessness. He thought how much of a “light bulb” his younger brother-in-law was, always shining brightly and dazzlingly, almost blinding people’s eyes.
His wife and he wanted to have some intimate time outside, why did Gu Qingheng have to go!
And to bring Xia Tian along…
Then it wouldn’t be called a date, but a gathering!
“Brother-in-law, you can’t not take me! We have the friendship of having studied together, so we won’t forget each other!”
“Go, go, go, is that phrase used here?”
“Last time, you even used ‘abandoning after starting something’!”
“…”
Seeing Gu Yu’s appearance, which suggested he was reluctant to bring them along, Gu Qingheng immediately became displeased.
He had been cooped up at home for so long, and Gu Qingheng also wanted to go out and see the world. However, he was too young, and his family wouldn’t let him go far, only allowing him to stroll nearby.
But all the beautiful scenery was in more distant places, how could he stop there!
He also wanted to take Sister Xia Tian to see the snow scenery in the capital!
Therefore, Gu Qingheng set his sights on his brother-in-law. Coincidentally, Gu Yu had just brought it up, making Gu Qingheng even more excited.
It came without any effort!
“Gu Yu, Qingheng, what are you talking about?”
“Dad! My brother-in-law said he wants to go out and play!”
While Gu Yu and Gu Qingheng were talking, Gu Qing, who was eating opposite them, heard their conversation and immediately asked curiously, not knowing what they were talking about.
Afterward, before Gu Yu could reply, Gu Qingheng spoke first, directly stating that Gu Yu wanted to take Gu Mengyao on a date and not bring his younger brother-in-law along!
When Gu Yu heard Gu Qingheng’s words, he glared fiercely at him. But Gu Qingheng was not afraid at all, instead sticking out his tongue at Gu Yu.
With an expression that said, “I will be a light bulb, and no one can stop me,” Gu Yu truly didn’t know what to say.
This younger brother-in-law was truly detestable!
“Oh?”
“…Yes, I’ve been in the capital for so long, but I haven’t seen the surrounding scenery. Coincidentally, I also want to take Mengyao out for a bit, for the two of us to see the snow scenery in the capital.”
When his father-in-law spoke, Gu Yu had to answer.
However, his subsequent words subtly conveyed his wish for others not to interfere, which any intelligent person would understand.
He and his wife wanted to be intimate, so others should not join in the fun!
“Since that’s the case, why don’t we all go out and play together! Coincidentally, I have a day off tomorrow, so I can join you.”
“…Okay.”
However, Gu Qing did not pay attention to the hope in Gu Yu’s words.
Because Gu Yu had cured the mysterious illness in the capital, Gu Qing felt very proud in front of the emperor, which made him extremely satisfied with his son-in-law.
He was thinking of finding a time to have a good talk with his son-in-law, when unexpectedly, the opportunity presented itself immediately.
Going out to play together would also help to cultivate their relationship.
Gu Yu, hearing that his father-in-law had said so, naturally had no right to refuse. In the end, he could only nod helplessly, indicating that they would play together tomorrow!
From a sweet date for two people to a family gathering, this change made Gu Yu feel very depressed, thinking how unlucky he was.
However, the culprit was his younger brother-in-law!
Thinking of this, Gu Yu looked at Gu Qingheng, making Gu Qingheng instinctively shrink his neck. Then, he used Gu Mengyao’s body as a shield to block Gu Yu’s angry gaze.
After a meal, Gu Mengyao and Auntie Fei, along with a group of maids, went to prepare the things and food needed for the next day, while Gu Yu chuckled and dragged Gu Qingheng to prepare for a ‘love education’.
However, Gu Qingheng had already anticipated that things would develop this way, so he had already pulled Gu Qing to the side early on.
Just as Gu Yu was about to leave with Gu Qingheng, Gu Qing happily said to Gu Yu that he had something to say and wanted to discuss it in the study!
This made Gu Yu’s face instantly fall, thinking that it would be another lengthy lecture.
He, this son-in-law, was truly living a bitter life!
Finally, as Gu Yu listened with a blank expression, Gu Qing then let him go with satisfaction, and also mentioned that he was greatly looking forward to tomorrow’s outing.
As Gu Yu walked out of Gu Qing’s study, he was about to go and get revenge on his younger brother-in-law when he saw Gu Mengyao standing prettily at the doorway. Seeing her pale, somewhat frozen face, it was obvious she had been waiting for a long time.
“Mengyao, what are you standing here for? Hurry and come inside to warm up. Look how you’ve frozen!”
“I was worried that my father would keep you for another half a day, so I came to wait for a while. It’s okay!”
As Gu Mengyao spoke, Gu Yu didn’t believe her. He quickly walked to Gu Mengyao’s front and held her hands.
Noticing how cold they were, Gu Yu quickly raised his hands and blew warm air with his mouth, trying to warm Gu Mengyao up.
Gu Mengyao looked at Gu Yu with a smile. As her hands felt warm, her heart also felt warm.
Her little husband really knew how to dote on her.
“Still smiling! You’re so cold, why don’t you go inside to hide?”
“I didn’t expect it! I just stood for a while and it became like this.”
His little wife was truly adorably silly, smiling even when she was so cold.
Gu Yu shook his head helplessly, then pulled Gu Mengyao to leave. They quickly returned to the courtyard where they lived, and then walked into the house, intending to let Gu Mengyao warm up inside.
“Mengyao, quickly take off your clothes and get into bed to warm up… Cough cough, it’s okay if you don’t take them off.”
“I’d better take them off! My clothes are also a bit damp after standing outside for a while.”
Before Gu Yu could finish speaking, he realized something was wrong!
However, even though he quickly changed his mind with his latter sentence, Gu Mengyao shook her head, indicating that it was better to take them off now.
Although Gu Mengyao’s cheeks were slightly red, she looked at Gu Yu with a hint of boldness, making Gu Yu’s heart pound, feeling it was simply too exciting!
His little wife was so daring today!
Especially when she personally unfastened her belt, threw it aside, and then raised her hand to slightly open her top, revealing the fair skin beneath, making people’s gaze seemingly unable to move, firmly fixed on it…
But, no.
Gu Mengyao was not yet an adult, and acting now would be like harming a budding flower!
He had promised to wait, and had already waited for nearly two years. How could he fail at this crucial moment!
Gu Mengyao had not yet bloomed. It would be too much of a pity to pluck her now.
He had to wait until she bloomed completely, and was breathtakingly beautiful, before picking her – that would be the best time.
As Gu Yu forcefully restrained himself, he looked at Gu Mengyao who was preparing to take off her clothes. He immediately closed his eyes, took a quilt from his space, wrapped Gu Mengyao in it, and then threw her onto the bed.
Although he heard his little wife exclaim, Gu Yu did not stop his actions midway, for fear of losing control for a moment and making a big mistake.
Then, looking at the quilt that resembled a cocoon and Gu Mengyao’s pair of resentful eyes, Gu Yu’s lips couldn’t help but curl upwards. He planned to let his little wife stay like this for a while, and after she warmed up, he would let Gu Mengyao out.
…
Hmm, a new month is about to begin~ Monthly votes are reappearing!
(Won’t you give the diligent author a vote!)
Although his actions were too restrained, for Gu Mengyao’s sake, Gu Yu decided to be a gentleman.
When his little wife came of age, she wouldn’t be able to sleep at night!
