My Sister Insisted on Swapping Marriages, and I Became a Marchioness Instead Chapter 202: Becoming a Resentful Husband
Qin Yuan just felt this person was becoming increasingly difficult.
"You know perfectly well I’m not implying that."
"If that’s not what you an, then what do you an?" Marquis Gu wrinkled his nose, snorted, and said with full of grievances, "You’re now even half-hearted in brushing off."
Qin Yuan felt both annoyed and amused.
She really didn’t expect Marquis Gu to be so difficult and clingy.
Qin Yuan sat up, intending to call soone to help her wash and groom.
From behind her, Marquis Gu said mournfully, "So am I right then since you don’t even bother to explain and don’t ask why I ca early?"
He seed exactly like a resentful husband.
Qin Yuan burst into laughter, lunged at him, wanting to tickle him.
But Marquis Gu caught her slender waist, his warm hand stroked her body while taking advantage of the opportunity.
Flustered, Qin Yuan quickly whimpered and softly said, "Stop fooling around, what if they see?"
Seeing her watery eyes, Marquis Gu forcibly restrained himself, released her, and replied hoarsely, "I sent them out to boil water."
Qin Yuan said, "Instead of being outside teaching your sixth brother martial arts, why are you here with , are you hungry already?"
Marquis Gu replied, "Do you see as nothing but a glutton?"
Qin Yuan: "..."
It wasn’t until Hong Ye walked in that Marquis Gu got up and went to sit on the couch by the window, saying, "Last night you didn’t answer what I asked, I beca anxious and ca over. Besides, I didn’t offend the asles Goddess, I just lay in my bed, is that worth such treatnt?"
Qin Yuan glanced at him and had no choice but to wash herself.
Hong Ye was picking out clothes and jewelry, Gu Jinghui asked: "Did you do the accounting after I left last night?"
Hong Ye quickly responded: "Marquis has spoken, we wouldn’t do any accounting afterward; Miss took a rest and went to sleep."
"Hmm, that’s indeed better."
Hong Ye let out a sigh of relief.
Gu Jinghui pondered for a mont and added, "From now on, it’s up to you to handle more. I see you’re quite clever and articulate, you may need to help the madam more often in the future."
Words like these coming from Marquis Gu’s mouth truly made Hong Ye unsure where to place her hands and feet.
She could only stamr, "Yes, Marquis."
After Qin Yuan ca out, she noticed Hong Ye constantly giving her looks but couldn’t figure out their aning, although she could guess it must involve so antics from Marquis Gu.
She asked, "Where’s Cui Ming?"
"Went to the big kitchen to fetch breakfast."
Qin Yuan asked puzzled, "Why is it her turn to fetch it again? Didn’t we arrange for the other little maids to do it?"
Hong Ye explained: "Marquis instructed it."
Marquis Gu: "Hmm, I saw her standing outside the door when I ca in, she was idle, so I asked her to fetch breakfast."
Qin Yuan: "..."
The one who does her hair was sent out to fetch breakfast, who would do her hair now?
Marquis Gu was really ssing around.
Qin Yuan could only fix her hair herself into a low bun and used a hairpin to secure it, while Marquis Gu watched, then asked, "Why aren’t you wearing the bracelet that Mother gave you yesterday?"
Qin Yuan: "..."
Feigning indifference, Qin Yuan asked three quick successive questions, "How are Marquis’s studies going? Which Chapter of Romance of the Three Kingdoms are you on? How far have you read in the Spring and Autumn Annals?"
Gu Jinghui stutteringly replied, "Others read with red sleeves adding fragrance, but I can only lonely study by lamp in the study, naturally, I can’t proceed. Why not move back ho to study."
While speaking, he even said, "Didn’t you say before to make a study room in the main room for us to share? How about I move into the study?"
Qin Yuan couldn’t help but see clearly.
Marquis Gu indeed longed for the mansion to open soon, expecting to move back ho soon.
Even if not into the residence area, moving into the main room was good.
Hong Ye snickered quietly nearby, though without a sound, but seeing her expression, Qin Yuan knew what she was doing.
Out of sight, out of mind.
Qin Yuan simply ignored him.
After breakfast, Qin Yuan began handling matters in the mansion, with Gu Jinghui sitting nearby listening.
The steward and housekeeper moms were much more alert than usual,
When she finished these tasks, it was quite late, Qin Yuan changed into a servant’s attire, and was about to follow Doctor Li and Xiao Dong to see patients.
Gu Jinghui asked in confusion, "Why do you go there daily when Doctor Li and Xiao Dong are busy with that?"
Qin Yuan answered, "I’m learning so dical theories from Doctor Li, and he’s ntioned that the asures in the Marquis Mansion are excellent, if combined with his prescription and the incense, it should prevent seven to eight-tenths of the asles. I’m considering once the mansion opens to draft a morandum, process these asures up to the Holy Emperor; at last, no one would pursue the asles problems of the Marquis Mansion anymore. This isn’t well planned yet, so I haven’t discussed it thoroughly with my husband."
"The great achievent Madam ntioned before refers to this?"
Qin Yuan nodded.
Gu Jinghui wisely said, "Then you should get back to it without minding ."
Only then Qin Yuan went to seek Doctor Li and Xiao Dong for the consultation.
The teacher and disciple quickly curbed the spread of asles.
Even the two children of the Sixth Master began recovering.
Qin Yuan relaxed, saying, "Soon the mansion shall open, these past days have truly been exhausting."
Xiao Dong said, "Senior sister is tired because she wants to manage everything, all this has and master worrying, what more bothers senior sister?"
Doctor Li praised, "Don’t underestimate Xiao Dong for being so young, he’s very clever indeed, speaking well to the point, you’re overburdening yourself, how could you bear it?"
Qin Yuan replied, "Such significant matters, how could I let them go? Master doesn’t know, our mansion has been quite tumultuous recently; the asles is a man-made disaster, if not for master’s prescription, I dread sealing the mansion rashly. Initially, it was insignificant; who would’ve thought Doctor Liu would erge, without my tight inquiries, we might be hard by this guy."
Xiao Dong blinked and asked, "Senior sister, does soone in the court want to harm senior brother-in-law?"
Doctor Li looked at Xiao Dong briefly.
Xiao Dong quickly replied, "It’s portrayed like that in dramas, Pan Reni and Yang Family Generals."
Qin Yuan frowned, "Surely soone is scheming, but it’s not just one person, court politics are really complex, unlike dramas."
Doctor Li said, "Stop explaining to him, he’s just a kid after all; if his mouth isn’t reliable, blurting accidentally will ruin things. You ntioned a morandum, put my prescription with the incense techniques they’re sending up."
Qin Yuan hesitantly looked at him.
Doctor Li smiled, "My prescription is passed down through generations, I don’t intend to beco an Imperial Physician myself, only wish for Renhe Hall to endure well, publishing this prescription can save lives after all. Yet if you want to publish the Jade Beauty Cream formula, that’s absolutely impossible."
Qin Yuan couldn’t resist looking at Xiao Dong.
She contemplated, saying, "Master, what if Xiao Dong wishes to join the Imperial Hospital when he grows up?"
Doctor Li glared at Xiao Dong, asking, "Would you wish to join the Imperial Hospital in the future?"
