Chapter 551 What should I do if my husband wants to travel to the modern world?
Gu Chongguang was going to go to war before the New Year. Thinking of the Second Wife's pregnancy, the servants in the Marquis' Mansion were always solemn and cautious in doing their work, which resulted in the disappearance of the strong New Year atmosphere.
In Shaoguang Courtyard.
Sheng Huan put down the sachet she had just embroidered and looked at the sunny weather outside. It didn't snow today and the air wasn't too cold.
She said, "Siyun, get ready, we are going to Jin'an Temple."
"Madam..." Siyun was a little hesitant. After all, Madam is now five months pregnant.
But they all knew that the Madam and the Second Master had such a good relationship, how could they not be worried.
Shi Hua and You Ma were also anxious, but they didn't know what to say. After all, the Second Master was leaving for the border tomorrow. The border was urgent, and the Second Master was a general and the commander-in-chief. There were many things he had to deal with in the barracks, and he didn't know if he could come back at night.
I should be able to come back and pick up my luggage.
Sheng Huan saw her embarrassment, pursed her lips, lowered her eyes, and looked a little stubborn: "It's okay, my husband will leave tomorrow, let's go and ask for a peace amulet."
Seeing this, Siyun stopped talking. She knew that the Madam was worried about the Second Master, and asking for a talisman was just a hope. She saw Nanny You winking at her, so she could only bow.
"Yes, ma'am. I'll tell the driver right away."
After Siyun left, Nanny You comforted her, "Madam, you don't have to worry. The Second Master is a natural born general. He knows how to deploy troops. When the old Marquis was alive, he said that the Second Master is a son of a tiger father, and he is better than his father!"
Yes, that's right. Don't look at how Gu Chongguang usually behaves in front of Sheng Huan, he is actually a famous general in Dayu! His majesty in the army is incredible, the kind of demeanor that kills enemies at will while chatting and laughing.
Otherwise, he could be said to be the male lead.
Hearing this, Sheng Huan finally smiled: "Yes, my husband is very capable."
"Mammy, go down and see if all the things I asked you to pack for your husband are put away."
"Hey, I'll go over and take a look!"
-
When Gu Hengqing was about to go out at noon, he found that Butler Shi was asking the servants to pack up the carriage.
"It's thick! The blankets are all in place, and the charcoal fire must be sufficient!"
"And here, Lao Zhao, come here and check the wheels. They can't break down halfway. The Second Madam must not suffer!"
"Butler Shi." Gu Hengqing heard a certain word and walked over: "Who is this?"
"Oh, Lord, you are going out." The housekeeper came over and replied: "Second Master will leave tomorrow, and Second Madam wants to go to Jin'an Temple to worship Buddha, as you know..."
Although housekeeper Shi was worried, he also understood. After all, he was the second wife's husband: "The second wife is not very reassured."
Gu Hengqing was silent for a moment, looking at the sky and the road. He turned his head and his eyes fell on Xuantian behind him. His voice was calm:
"Xuantian, you will follow the Second Madam's carriage in a while."
Xuantian was surprised when he was called, but he still bowed: "Yes, Lord."
-
As the sky gradually darkened, the candles in Shaoguang Courtyard had never been extinguished since they were lit.
"Madam, are you hungry? How about I ask the kitchen to prepare some food for you..."
Sheng Huan shook his head without appetite, holding the amulet in his hand.
"No need."
Behind them, Shihua and Siyun looked at each other helplessly, too anxious to know what to say, and had no idea what to do.
"He Wei!"
A hoarse and urgent voice was heard, and Sheng Huan suddenly looked up. In the night, a man in armor appeared.
He was obviously in a hurry.
The man was dressed in armor, tall and straight, and indescribably sharper than usual, but when he was in front of the woman, all the spikes were removed.
"Husband!" She stood up and was about to come over.
Gu Chongguang had already walked over quickly and hugged his wife.
The servants around him retreated with a glance.
"When are we leaving?" the woman asked softly, lying in the man's arms.
Gu Chongguang tensed up: "At 11:00 a.m., the army will set out."
In other words, he had to rush back to the military camp soon, otherwise he would not be able to make it to the departure time tomorrow.
Her eyes were red: "Okay."
She took out a sachet from her bosom and placed it solemnly in Gu Chongguang's hand.
Gu Chongguang lowered his head and saw her red eyes, and was speechless.
"This is the sachet I embroidered especially for my husband." Sheng Huan smiled at him. Her soft face was very delicate, but mist rose in her eyes: "It also contains the amulet I prayed for at Jin'an Temple today. I wish my husband a smooth journey."
"Yes." He held the sachet and wiped away the tears that had fallen from the woman's eyes with one hand: "I will be back soon."
"It's late. He Wei, go to sleep. Don't stay up late." He smiled, doting and tender: "Otherwise it will be bad for your health."
"it is good."
But after she lay down on the bed, she couldn't fall asleep and kept holding the man's hand tightly. Gu Chongguang saw her uneasiness.
"Don't be afraid, He Wei. I'm here."
"I'll let Lingsong stay and protect you."
The man held his wife's hand tightly, his big hand wrapped around her small hand, tightly and seamlessly.
Sheng Huan shook his head: "There are so many people in the Marquis' Mansion, why should we keep him here?"
"Don't change the people your husband is used to." Gu Chongguang wanted to say something, but Sheng Huan pressed her finger on his lips and said in a rare strong tone: "I feel more at ease with them by my husband's side."
"I'm in the Marquis' Mansion. I'll be fine."
Gu Chongguang looked into her eyes and finally nodded: "Okay."
The time they spent together always passed too quickly. When the hourglass had ticked down for an unknown amount of time, Gu Chongguang had to get up carefully. He didn't know why, but on this expedition, he always felt an unknown suffocating feeling in his heart.
The man looked at the woman deeply, lowered his head, and kissed his wife on the forehead without the slightest lust.
Solemnly, take care.
After the kiss, he turned around resolutely.
We can't delay any longer, otherwise we won't be able to leave.
-
Out of Shaoguangyuan.
Gu Chongguang took a step forward and finally went to Qingfeng Courtyard, but before he arrived, he met Gu Hengqing on the way.
"Got to go?"
Gu Hengqing walked over.
"Yes." Gu Chongguang nodded.
For a moment, the two fell into silence. After a while, Gu Hengqing spoke.
"Don't worry about the affairs of the mansion. Go ahead."
The two are brothers, and you understand without much explanation.
Gu Chongguang stood under the moonlight and said solemnly:
"He Wei is in poor health. I don't know when I can come back. During this period, please take good care of her for me, brother."
He paused: "She actually cries a lot and would cry secretly from the servants. If you see her like this, please take care of her..."
He knew that his wife looked so happy on weekdays, but when she was wronged or had some other problems, she would hide under the quilt and cry secretly.
Just when he left, he saw tears in her eyes. She couldn't bear to leave him, and he couldn't bear to leave her.
But the scale of this alien invasion is very different. Several villages have been slaughtered. These aliens are like crazy.
Gu Hengqing stood in the shadows and agreed: "Okay."
Gu Chongguang bowed: "Brother, thank you very much for this."
