Chapter 13 They Argued Right After Getting Married
“Dong Ning.” Gu Song looked at Wei Dong Ning.
Unfortunately, Wei Dongning and Xiao Wu were chatting so happily that their attention was completely elsewhere.
It took Gu Peiyan a little teasing from below to bring her back to her senses.
"Ah, yes, Father." Wei Dongning was so embarrassed that she scratched her toes on the ground.
This feeling is like being caught daydreaming in class by the teacher.
Gu Song sighed inwardly, silently repeating the phrase "you can't scold someone who isn't your own son" before speaking: "From now on, except for the first and fifteenth of the month, you don't need to come early to pay your respects. The household affairs will be handed over to you in a couple of days."
Upon hearing the first sentence, Wei Dongning was happy and prepared to say "thank you".
If we don't have to get up early to pay our respects, wouldn't we be able to sleep as long as we want?
But for this second sentence, she wanted to turn into an emoji, pointing at herself and asking, "Me?"
She's terrible at managing!
This is just making things difficult for children.
Wei Dongning didn't show it on her face, but secretly she was grinding her teeth to powder.
Finally, she agreed: "Okay, Father, your daughter-in-law will do her best."
Wei Dongning felt rather uncomfortable having breakfast with Gu Song.
After the meal, she felt like she had some indigestion.
As Wei Dongning left Gu Song's place, she kept rubbing her stomach.
If someone asks her what she just ate, the answer will only be three words:
"I don't remember."
Honestly, eating with two people who have stern faces is really stressful.
Back in their own courtyard, Wei Dongning couldn't help but wail, "Xiao Fu, quickly find me something to aid digestion."
Her expression was so pitiful that Xiao Fu suppressed a laugh and turned to go to the small kitchen to see if there was any hawthorn cake or something similar.
Wei Dongning kicked off her shoes and threw herself onto the bed, waiting for Xiao Fu to feed her.
Seeing her behavior, Gu Peiyan frowned almost imperceptibly.
He had never seen such a proper lady, who had no manners at all.
All her actions contradicted the education he had received over the past twenty years.
If it were just at home, it would be fine, but I'm afraid that when she attends various gatherings, she might inadvertently embarrass the Gu family and the Marquis's family.
The burning gaze lingered for a long time. Wei Dongning looked back and asked in confusion, "Why are you staring at me like that? Is there something on my face?"
Could it be that there's boogers in its eyes?
Wei Dongning reached out and scratched the corner of her eye with concern.
Thankfully, it's clean.
“Wei Dongning, your behavior is completely unlike that of a proper young lady.”
"Oh, so what?"
"I hope you can change. Otherwise, it won't just be you who loses face in the future."
Gu Peiyan spoke in a serious tone.
Wei Dongning turned over and sat up in bed, looking directly into his eyes.
She grabbed his collar and pulled him closer to her.
Until I could clearly see my own reflection in his eyes.
Raising an eyebrow, she smiled defiantly and said, "The future hasn't happened yet, how do you know I'll definitely lose face? Or are you a prophet? How about I request a divorce in a couple of days, so the Gu family won't lose face because of me? What do you think of this suggestion, my dear husband?"
Having said that, Rouyi exerted a little force on his chest, pushing him away from her.
Even when she was very close, she could smell the faint scent of soap on him, and combined with his appearance, it was easy for her to lose control.
She's a sucker for good looks.
Gu Peiyan smoothed out the wrinkles in her clothes.
His tone was completely calm: "Our marriage was ordained by the Emperor, so let's not talk about divorce anymore."
"Oh." Wei Dongning shrugged. "Don't worry, I know my limits."
The implication is that she will put on a good show in front of outsiders and he doesn't need to worry about her.
Gu Peiyan nodded: "That's good. I'll go to my study to handle some business first. If you need anything, just send someone to call me."
Qian Rong followed Gu Peiyan after he came out of the room.
Even with her not-so-bright brain, she couldn't figure out why the young master was lecturing the young mistress on the second day of their marriage.
If he were to marry a woman as lovely as Madam in the future, he would slap himself for saying even the harshest thing.
They simply don't know how to cherish things!
Gu Peiyan opened the door to the study but did not rush in.
Instead, he turned around and casually instructed Qianrong, "Qianrong, there are candied hawthorns for sale at the market on the east side. Go buy a skewer and bring it back to the young mistress."
"Yes, young master."
Qian Rong was even more confused now.
what is this?
How to make amends after angering the young mistress?
He still couldn't understand it.
It's more suitable for him to follow orders.
Wei Dongning's complaints never stopped after Gu Peiyan left.
Xiao Wu clicked his tongue in amazement: "Ningbao, it's a shame you don't participate in a roast show with your eloquence."
"Basic operation, don't be silly." Wei Dongning picked up a piece of hawthorn cake that Xiao Fu had brought and put it in her mouth.
She probably added too much sugar while cooking, as it was so sweet that she quickly poured herself a cup of tea and drank it down.
Xiao Fu pushed open the door: "Miss, Qian Rong requests an audience."
"Let him in."
Wei Dongning wiped the sugar-coated fingers off and straightened her posture.
You should still pay attention to your image in front of outsiders.
Otherwise, they'll think they're easy to bully and won't listen to us, which will be troublesome.
Qian Rong walked in with a candied hawthorn stick in his hand and respectfully handed it to Wei Dongning: "Young Madam, this is what the young master instructed me to bring to you."
"Thank you." Wei Dongning took the candied hawthorn and took a bite.
Unlike hawthorn cake, this candied hawthorn is so sour it makes your teeth ache.
Wei Dongning squinted her eyes because of the sour taste.
Considering that he was somewhat considerate, she was generous and forgave his rude remarks.
Wei Dongning ate lunch and dinner by herself, while Gu Peiyan stayed in the study and did not return.
Xiao Fu couldn't stand it anymore and complained, "Miss, isn't the young master just neglecting you?"
"It's okay, I enjoy my meals even without him here."
It's at least several times better than incense in the morning.
Xiao Wu was called back by the Main God System, I wonder if it was something urgent. It's a bit boring without TV shows to watch while eating.
Fortunately, she brought quite a few storybooks with her, which were quite useful for passing the time.
Gu Peiyan, who was standing at the door, heard her words and was unsure whether to go in or not.
Finally, he turned and went back to his study: "Tell the young mistress that I will be staying in the study tonight."
When Qian Rong conveyed Gu Peiyan's message to Wei Dongning, Xiao Fu was furious: "Miss, what the young master did was really too much. Miss must complain to the Marquis about this when we return to our parents' home tomorrow."
"Don't be angry, don't be angry. Getting angry will only make you sick, and no one can take your place. Besides, it's a good thing that no one is disturbing my sleep. You're not a three-year-old anymore, and you don't have to go to your parents for everything." Wei Dongning comforted the sulking Xiao Fu.
As if to prove herself, she didn't even dream that night.
The next day, Gu Peiyan's mental state upon waking up completely overwhelmed Gu Peiyan, who had tossed and turned in her study all night.
"You're not asleep?" Wei Dongning asked sincerely, staring at the dark circles under his eyes.
Gu Peiyan shook her head and silently picked up the bowl of porridge in front of her.
I never thought the bed in the study would be so hard to sleep in.
"Young Master, Young Madam, everything we need for your return visit has been prepared."
