Chapter 25 Your Spear Art is Too Powerful
After receiving generous compensation from the Emperor, Gu Yu felt that Gu Mengyao’s resignation was no longer unforgivable.
After all, he was reluctant to let his wife go to the battlefield again.
It was safer to stay at home.
It also saved him from tossing and turning in bed at night, always worrying if Gu Mengyao would suffer in the military camp.
Therefore, he absolutely did not get angry just because of these silver notes.
When Gu Mengyao saw Gu Yu’s smiling face, she helplessly shook her head. The fact that her little husband was so fond of money made her want to earn more in the future.
This way, Gu Yu would be happy every day and wouldn’t frown with worry.
However, it wasn’t possible now.
Not only did the environment not allow it, but the Gu family also needed her. They would have to wait a couple more years.
For now, companionship was the priority.
The family would live happily until they grew up…
“Mengyao, you woke up so early. Are you sleepy? Do you want to go back to your room and sleep in?”
“No need. I’m already used to waking up early in the military camp. Instead of sleeping, I’d rather practice my spear art to become stronger.”
“Practicing spear again!”
Then, after Gu Yu secretly put the silver notes into his space, he spoke to Gu Mengyao, wanting to persuade her to go back and rest, to avoid insufficient sleep.
For Gu Yu, every bit of extra sleep in the morning was precious. Waking up early was simply torture!!!
However, Gu Mengyao didn’t feel sleepy.
Perhaps it was due to practicing martial arts. Even when fighting a protracted war with Fengming Kingdom, Gu Mengyao didn’t feel uncomfortable despite lacking sleep.
On the contrary, she felt exceptionally energetic, and practicing spear art every day was also particularly vigorous.
Although Xia Tian said that Gu Mengyao felt no fatigue because she was a martial arts fanatic and loved practicing martial arts too much… Gu Mengyao did not think so.
Even a martial arts fanatic would get extremely tired under such high-intensity training every day.
However, Gu Mengyao didn’t feel that way.
This was very strange…
However, Gu Mengyao did not dwell on this matter. After speaking to Gu Yu, she walked towards the backyard, preparing to take out her spear and practice for a while.
Seeing this, Gu Yu naturally couldn’t refuse and followed Gu Mengyao to the backyard.
When Gu Yu saw his wife’s hand grasp the red-tasseled spear, her imposing aura instantly became sharp, like a piercing weapon, making people tremble with fear and dare not approach half a step.
Since Gu Yu and Gu Mengyao met, Gu Mengyao hadn’t changed much compared to before. Therefore, Gu Yu hadn’t thought too much about it.
However, seeing a different Gu Mengyao now, Gu Yu knew that things had changed.
His wife was even cooler!
That’s right, if any young ladies or young wives were here, seeing Gu Mengyao’s handsome posture, even if Gu Mengyao was a woman, she would still receive a large number of screams.
After all, people worship strength, regardless of gender.
Gu Yu was very proud to have such an outstanding wife. He felt that he must have saved the universe in his previous life and wasn’t depressed at all about being inferior to Gu Mengyao.
In Linfeng Kingdom, just by the contemptuous look on people’s faces when they heard that Gu Yu was a son-in-law who married into the wife’s family, one could tell that they looked down upon men who depended on women, considering it a disgrace among men.
Therefore, sons-in-law who married into the wife’s family were often bullied.
However, Gu Yu was not an ordinary son-in-law who married into the wife’s family.
When he transmigrated to Linfeng Kingdom, this body was already the Gu family’s son-in-law who married into the wife’s family. Therefore, he could only accept it and prepare to find an opportunity to get rid of this identity.
After all, at that time, Gu Yu had no feelings for Gu Mengyao and her brother, and treated them as strangers, thinking only of making money to escape his predicament.
But, without him realizing it, Gu Yu had integrated into his current life.
And with his abilities, Gu Yu could marry ten or even eight wives without any problem.
However, Gu Yu was unwilling.
One life, one partner. It was good like this.
Therefore, Gu Yu was very content being a son-in-law who married into the wife’s family.
Even if others showed contemptuous glances, Gu Yu completely ignored them, treating them like stray dogs rolling their eyes at him on the road.
Gu Mengyao was initially a little worried. When she saw that Gu Yu really didn’t care about others’ opinions, she was relieved.
She was really worried that Gu Yu couldn’t handle it…
“Yu, why are you standing there blankly? Why don’t you find a place to sit! The sun isn’t weak now. What if you get heatstroke!”
Just as Gu Yu was mesmerized by Gu Mengyao’s handsome spear movements, Gu Mengyao, after finishing a few sets of spear techniques, saw Gu Yu standing there in a daze, sweating profusely under the sun with his cheeks turning red.
Seeing this scene, Gu Mengyao quickly stopped practicing her spear and walked towards Gu Yu, wanting him to find a shady place to rest.
It wouldn’t be good if he fainted.
“It’s fine, I’ve only been standing for a short while, it’s nothing.”
“…I’ve been practicing spear for almost an hour.”
Hearing Gu Mengyao’s words, Gu Yu chuckled and shook his head, saying that such a short period of time was not a problem at all.
However, Gu Mengyao was a little surprised when she said it had been almost an hour.
This meant that Gu Yu had been standing under the sun for an hour.
When Gu Yu realized this, he did feel a slight headache.
“What!!!”
However, whether it was staring for too long or being out in the sun, Gu Yu felt a little dizzy even when walking. Finally, he was helped by Gu Mengyao to a cool place to sit down. After drinking some cool water handed by a servant, Gu Yu felt much better.
But without him realizing it, watching Gu Mengyao practice spear for an hour was too terrifying!
If it weren’t for what just happened, and his body was still a bit uncomfortable, Gu Yu wouldn’t have believed the truth of the matter.
“Yu, if you like watching me practice spear, I’ll practice for you when it’s cooler someday.”
“Okay, I didn’t expect it just now… I was so engrossed. Your spear art is too powerful, Mengyao. One glance and you can’t stop watching.”
“Thank you for the compliment.”
Seeing that Gu Yu looked fine, Gu Mengyao was relieved. She then sat down next to Gu Yu, preparing to rest for a while.
No matter what, nothing falls from the sky.
Even if there were, the probability would be so low that no one would have such a fluke.
Gu Mengyao wanted to become stronger, which required hard work. However, being able to achieve such significant results, she didn’t feel tired at all.
Especially now, when she heard Gu Qingheng say this, Gu Mengyao felt even happier.
Before, in the military camp, many people were mesmerized by her spear art and couldn’t stop praising her. However, Gu Mengyao didn’t feel particularly happy about it, just ordinary praise.
But hearing Gu Yu say this at this moment made Gu Mengyao almost burst with joy!
“However, Mengyao, you should still pay attention recently. The sun is very strong now, don’t get heatstroke.”
“Don’t worry, I only practice for a while in the morning and evening, I won’t get heatstroke.”
Just as Gu Mengyao was secretly joyful, Gu Yu, after recovering, thought that Gu Mengyao shouldn’t feel as uncomfortable as him. He quickly reminded Gu Mengyao to pay attention.
Gu Mengyao nodded, indicating that she would be careful.
And seeing that Gu Mengyao was so obedient, Gu Yu was very gratified. He then chatted with Gu Mengyao about life in the military camp, which Gu Yu found astonishing.
If there was a chance in the future, he wanted to accompany Gu Mengyao to the military camp.
To experience what it was like to live in a military camp…
After Gu Mengyao finished talking about her life in the military camp, she then asked Gu Yu how he was doing at home.
Gu Yu initially thought he would only mention a few things briefly.
But once he started speaking, he couldn’t stop.
Perhaps it was because he hadn’t been living well recently, and because of missing her, Gu Yu’s tone was tinged with a hint of melancholy as he spoke, making Gu Mengyao’s eyes curve, thinking how cute her little husband was.
Thus, after they had detailed their respective situations, time quickly flew to lunchtime.
When a maid came to announce that lunch was ready, Gu Yu and Gu Mengyao stopped talking and walked towards the main room together, preparing to eat lunch.
After chatting for a long time, they were all hungry!
“Why are you only coming now? Hurry up and wash your hands to eat.”
“Okay, Auntie Fei.”
Then, after Gu Yu and Gu Mengyao washed their hands, they sat down at the dining table, waiting for the maids to serve the dishes one by one.
Since coming to the Gu Residence, the most convenient thing was that Gu Mengyao didn’t have to cook, which allowed her to relax a little.
“Sister, have you seen Xia Tian?”
“No, isn’t she playing with you?”
“She’s not playing with me… Since I woke up this morning, I haven’t seen Xia Tian. And I spent a long time looking for her just now and couldn’t find her. I thought she was with you!”
While waiting for the maids to serve the dishes, Gu Qingheng suddenly asked if she had seen Xia Tian. His small face was full of worry, clearly not knowing where Xia Tian had suddenly gone.
Upon hearing Gu Qingheng’s words, Gu Mengyao and Gu Yu also sensed that something was wrong.
Normally, even if they couldn’t find Xia Tian, they would know where she was.
But why was it like this today? She didn’t even leave a message?
“Miss, someone just asked me to give you this letter. They said a little girl is in their hands. If you want to bring her back, then come to the Tang Sect.”
“What!”
Then, while everyone was worried about Xia Tian, a maid rushed in in a panic. After handing over the letter in her hand, the words she spoke surprised the three members of the Gu family.
The Tang Sect, why did it appear again!
