Chapter 21 Tang Lian’s Letter
After Gu Qingheng took the letter from the messenger, he looked at the familiar handwriting on it and felt a surge of joy in his heart, thinking that it was really from Sister Lian, which was incredibly surprising!
He had almost gone crazy missing her!
Just then, he received Sister Lian’s letter.
After steadying his emotions, Gu Qingheng was about to tear open the envelope. However, upon seeing Gu Yu, who was looking on curiously, Gu Qingheng quickly, as if guarding a treasure, took his child’s feet and ran, clutching the letter, and slipped into the room.
He wanted to read Sister Lian’s letter slowly and by himself!
Brother Qingheng:
It’s been a long time, how are you?
I miss you very much, but during training, we are not allowed to go out. This letter was also secretly sent by someone. Please do not reply to this letter afterwards, so as not to be discovered by the people from the Tang Sect, or I will be punished again.
I have grown taller since we last parted!
Brother Qingheng, you must also work hard and not be a picky eater!
Otherwise, you will be like Mengyao Eldest Sister and Gu Yu Ge, and I will be taller than you then!
Say hi to them for me, and wait for two more years, and I will be able to finish my training!
Wait for me!
Tang Lian
Tang Lian’s letter was not long, and Gu Qingheng quickly finished reading its contents. He then reread it reluctantly before carefully putting it away.
He placed it with his previous letters, intending to keep it well until he could see Sister Lian again, to show her how much he valued her!
As for her letter asking him to wait for her, even if Sister Lian hadn’t said so, he would have waited! It was just two years, he would wait!
However, the word “we” in the letter made Gu Qingheng a little jealous, wondering if the people training with Sister Lian were male or female!
He hoped they were women!
If they were men, he would be jealous!
After a period of wild thoughts, Gu Qingheng walked out of the room. Gu Yu was standing there with a teasing expression. Gu Qingheng quickly raised his hand to cover his face, using it to hide his expression, lest his brother-in-law guess again, which would be problematic!
His brother-in-law was too formidable; he could tell something was amiss just by observing a person’s every move, which forced him to be cautious!
“Alright, I already know what’s going on with you! Covering yourself up like this is just deceiving yourself.”
“Brother-in-law, please don’t guess! Sister Lian finally wrote to me, and you still have to guess like this. You should leave some private space for us two!”
“Hmph, I won’t guess! Besides, didn’t Tang Lian say hello to me and Mengyao in the letter? However, one thing makes me suspicious. Isn’t Tang Lian participating in the Tang Sect’s training? According to common sense, it should be a closed-door training. How can she send you a letter? Plus, the messenger isn’t from the Tang Sect…”
“Brother-in-law, if you keep guessing, you’ll really know everything! But, this letter was indeed sent by Sister Lian secretly, and she asked me not to reply.”
Listening to Gu Yu’s analysis, Gu Qingheng gave up struggling.
His brother-in-law always guessed correctly, what else could he hide!
However, when he said he couldn’t reply to Tang Lian, Gu Qingheng was also very disappointed, thinking that if he could reply, he could tell Sister Lian… now, his brother-in-law was taller than his sister, so he would be taller than her in the future!
“It’s good enough that she can send you a letter. Didn’t they say before that the training would take three years! Now there are only two years left. You should also read more during this time, so you won’t be the same as before when your Sister Lian becomes amazing.”
“Brother-in-law, I don’t think you’re right at all. I’ve become much better than before. At least in terms of studying, I…”
Upon hearing Gu Yu’s words, Gu Qingheng’s small face became serious, disagreeing with Gu Yu’s statement that he hadn’t changed, and then he chased after Gu Yu, babbling incessantly, which made Gu Yu’s head spin, regretting speaking so much just now.
When Gu Mengyao’s announcement of dinner finally quieted Gu Qingheng down, Gu Yu quickly moved the table to eat, preparing to take Gu Mengyao to the town afterwards.
When Tang Lian’s letter was mentioned at the dinner table, Gu Qingheng also relayed Tang Lian’s greetings to Gu Yu and Gu Mengyao. Upon hearing this, Gu Mengyao’s eyes turned a little red, and she thought of the well-behaved young girl, Tang Lian.
Tang Lian had accompanied Gu Mengyao to the battlefield before, and their relationship was very deep. Now, hearing that she was still training in the Tang Sect, she felt heartbroken, yet also hoped that Tang Lian would become even better.
When they meet again, Tang Lian will definitely be very formidable.
Seeing Gu Mengyao and Gu Qingheng looking like they couldn’t eat while thinking of Tang Lian, Gu Yu shook his head. He then reached out and put a piece of food into Gu Mengyao’s bowl, wanting his little wife to eat more.
As for his younger brother-in-law… he’s a boy, it’s okay for him to eat less.
“Qingheng, you stay home and watch the house. When I see delicious food and fun things on the street, I’ll buy them for you when I get back.”
“Hmph, am I that childish! I’m this old, and I still want these… buy me two portions.”
“…”
After finishing the meal and resting for a while, Gu Yu and Gu Mengyao were also leaving home for the town.
Before leaving home, Gu Yu also instructed his younger brother-in-law not to run around alone. After making many promises, he confidently left home.
Finally, they could have their two-person world again!
Thinking of this, Gu Yu saw that no one was around and quickly took Gu Mengyao’s hand. Hidden by his wide sleeves, no one could see it. At most, Gu Yu and Gu Mengyao were just too close to each other.
Gu Mengyao was no longer as easily embarrassed as she was at the beginning. When Gu Yu reached out to hold her hand, she also reciprocated, making Gu Yu’s heart feel itchy, like a cat scratching it.
His little wife is amazing!
In another two years, he wouldn’t be her match.
However, he wasn’t her match even now… Recalling Gu Mengyao’s desire to ‘play games’ with him at night, Gu Yu couldn’t help but let out a wry smile, thinking that his little wife was like a wolf and a tiger!
In a way, it was quite good; their marital life would be happy…
“A’yu, what are you thinking about? Your smile is strange, as if you’re thinking about something bad.”
“No, I’m not! I was just thinking about how quickly prices have been rising recently, and our family can earn a lot.”
While Gu Yu was thinking about inappropriate things, Gu Mengyao beside him looked at Gu Yu’s smiling lips with some suspicion, always feeling that his smile was a bit ill-intentioned!
Upon hearing Gu Mengyao’s words, Gu Yu quickly retracted his smile, not wanting his little wife to discover his thoughts!
If Gu Mengyao knew, she would probably want to play the game of ‘eagle catches chick’ with him again tonight.
