MTL - Dressed As a Consort In Ancient Times-Chapter 59
The warm time together as a family is always short.
The sun was setting and it was approaching evening, so Jiang Libai was ready to leave the palace with the stars.
"Do you want to leave without dinner?"
Concubine Yuan Gui felt very reluctant, she only saw her little granddaughter today, and she hasn't hugged her well yet, why is she leaving so soon?
Jiang Libai looked at the sky outside and shook his head: "It's getting late, and Gu Yun is going home soon."
Home…
Hearing this, Concubine Yuan Gui and Emperor Yu looked at each other and sighed.
Yes, their Jianing already has a small family, and is no longer the little princess of Cheng Huan and the others.
"Okay, then go back quickly, don't keep your son-in-law waiting for too long." Concubine Yuan Gui smiled and waved to Jiang Libai, "Be careful on the road."
"The minister and Xing Xing will go back there." Jiang Libai handed Xing Xing to the nanny, and after saluting, she turned and left the inner room.
Once the daughter and little granddaughter left, the house seemed to be much empty.
Concubine Yuan Gui shook her head and looked at Emperor Yu.
Seeing that he was still looking at the door eagerly, he suddenly laughed: "You have been avoiding Jianing before, why don't you want her to go home now?"
Emperor Yu held her hand and smiled bitterly: "It was I who broke Jianing's heart." As an emperor, he couldn't control many things. Sometimes in order to protect the people he wanted to protect, he could only be cold-hearted. .
Concubine Yuan Gui naturally knew his helplessness, and why wasn't she extremely helpless?
Feeling disappointed in her heart, she didn't push him any more, she held his fingers together, and leaned gently on his shoulder.
…
As the sun sets in the west, the sunset clouds on the horizon layer upon layer, dyeing the entire sky red, which is extremely beautiful.
When Jiang Libai returned to the princess mansion, the lanterns had already been lit.
Seeing the wooden boat waiting at the door, she was a little surprised: "Has the son-in-law returned to the mansion?" Then she walked into the house with Xing Xing in her arms.
"If you go back to the princess, the son-in-law has been back for a while."
Wandering around, but found that there was no figure of Gu Yun in the house, Jiang Libai came to the door, "Where is her son-in-law?"
Mu Zhou pointed to the outside: "The son-in-law is in the kitchen and said he wants to cook something for the princess."
Hearing this, Jiang Libai handed over the stars to the nanny, and rushed all the way to the kitchen with her skirt.
Before he got close, the strong smell of chili came out and rushed straight to the tip of his nose.
She covered her mouth and nose, sneezed several times, and walked in.
The fire was raging in front of the stove, and the dishes in the pot were stir-fried several times, and the smoke from them rose and enveloped the surroundings.
A bib was tied around Gu Yun's thin waist, and he was stirring the vegetables in the hot pot with his eyes half open.
She heard movement at the door and looked sideways.
"Why is the princess here?"
Jiang Libai fanned the smoke from the tip of her nose, walked to the stove, looked down, and saw that it was stewed vegetables with chili.
"This is the last dish, and we can have dinner later." Gu Yun stir-fried a few times for the last time, then took out the jade plate and served it up.
After tidying up, she took off her bib, straightened her sleeves, took Jiang Libai's little hand, and led her to the dining hall first.
"When I came back today, it was still early, so I made a few dishes you wanted to eat." Along the way, Gu Yun chattered to Jiang Libai.
The woman's low voice was as crisp and sweet as a clear stream in the forest hitting the stone surface. Jiang Libai was so happy that she let out a low "hmm".
"Then what else did you do?"
When they came to the dining hall, Gu Yun helped Jiang Libai to sit down, and the servants behind him entered the room carrying dishes one by one.
Canned pheasant, steamed sea bass, braised pig's trotters... The sumptuous dishes were put on the table, and Jiang Libai's eyes widened: "When did you learn to cook these?"
She remembered that although Gu Yun knew how to cook in the past, they were all home-cooked dishes. Why did he learn all of these all at once?
"I learned it when you weren't paying attention." Gu Yun rarely showed some pride, she picked up a small piece of fresh and tender fish with fish bones
On Jiang Libai's mouth, "Try it and see how it tastes?"
Jiang Libai sipped the piece of fish with the silver chopsticks she extended to her mouth, and the delicious taste immediately occupied all her senses.
Her eyes lit up when she looked at Gu Yun: "It's delicious!"
Gu Yun likes to see her so cheerful, like a child who has no worries and can feel all the good things in the world.
"Then use more." She picked the fishbone carefully for her, and put the fattest part of the fish belly into her bowl.
Seeing this, Jiang Libai picked out half of the fish from her own bowl and put it into Gu Yun's bowl, "You eat it too!"
The girl's eyebrows were curved, and her eyes were full of satisfaction when she looked at her. Gu Yun smiled, turned sideways, and approached her, "When I was cooking just now, I used too much force, and now my hands are still a little sore..."
The girl's rare act of acting like a baby made Jiang Libai's eyes flash, and then she quietly looked at the servants waiting beside her, seeing that everyone lowered their heads and didn't look over, she was relieved immediately, "Chun Xi, take them down." , I don’t need you to serve me here.”
After receiving the order, Chun Xi hurriedly greeted the others and retreated together.
Walking down the steps, she looked at the two of you and me in the room, took a deep breath, and whispered: "The princess and the son-in-law are really getting more and more nasty..." Even if you eat fish, you have to feed me. hello your...
Qin'er on the side leaned close to her, squinted her eyes and said with a smile: "Sister Chunxi, the princess kicked us out, do you really want to have a good meal?"
Chunxi looked sideways at the smirk in her eyes, quickly covered her mouth, hugged her waist, and took her further away.
"You dare to joke about the princess?! See if I don't take care of you little girl..."
In the house, all the servants left, only Jiang Libai and Gu Yun were left.
With no one in the way, Jiang Libai picked up the fish and fed it to Gu Yun's mouth: "Here, this princess feeds you personally."
Gu Yun opened his mouth and held the silver chopsticks in his mouth, his lingering eyes kept lingering on Jiang Libai's body.
"Thank you princess."
I don't know if Gu Yun did it on purpose, but Jiang Libai always felt that her voice sounded very... alluring.
She bit her lip, staring closely at Gu Yun's rosy thin lips.
It was getting late outside, and the lit lanterns gave off fragmented light.
The dining hall was very quiet, but the air seemed to be thickened with an ambiguous atmosphere.
Gu Yun got up without saying a word, walked to the door, glanced at the empty outer courtyard, and raised his hand to close the door.
Then, under Jiang Libai's expectant and shy eyes, she sat beside her.
"How is the princess eating?"
Jiang Libai ate a lot of snacks at her mother's concubine in the afternoon, so she is not very hungry now, just took a few more bites of dishes to fill her stomach, and she is almost done.
She looked into Gu Yun's deep eyes, stretched out her hand, and hooked her warm fingertips around the belt on her official uniform, "These dishes are almost eaten..."
Hmm... the dishes are almost finished, it's time to eat other things.
The shyness of the girl's refusal and welcome made Gu Yun unable to put it down.
With a muffled laugh, she raised her hand to cover the back of Jiang Libai's head, and moved towards the pink lips that Xiao had been thinking about for a long time.
Night fell.
After tidying up Qin'er, Chunxi hurried back outside the dining hall. But when she saw the closed door, the expression on her face cracked instantly.
And...again? !
In the time it takes to eat right now, just...do it again? ? ?
Should she say that she is a son-in-law with good energy? Or should I say that the princess is in good spirits? ? ?
Hearing the extremely low whispers inside, she looked up at the sky and silently guarded the courtyard.
As an alpha, Gu Yun has outstanding hearing ability.
When Chunxi walked into the courtyard, she already knew about it.
She grabbed Jiang Libai's calf, brought it close to her ear, and said in a hoarse voice, "Chunxi...is outside...do you want to hurry up?"
Jiang Libai hugged her waist and shook her head
Buried into the hollow of her shoulder, and then snorted: "Don't care about her...she won't...come in..."
In this way, Gu Yun ignored Chun Xi who was waiting outside the house.
The tables, chairs and benches in the dining hall are all made of high-quality golden nanmu. Not to mention the good quality, the size is also suitable, so even if two people can sit on the chairs, it is more than enough.
After shaking for a while, Jiang Libai's head was dizzy, she put her arms around Gu Yun's neck, and cried out again in a low voice.
Gu Yun raised his head, kissed her side face, and wiped away the tears on her face, "Do you want to change it?"
Jiang Libai's fingertips trembled, and she whimpered "Mmm".
Gu Yun looked at the long dining table from the corner of his eye. There were no dishes at the end, but it was very clean.
She hugged the person in her arms and walked to that place.
Afterwards, Jiang Libai leaned against her body, and next to her were delicious dishes.
Gu Yun raised his hand to caress her thin back, and slowly approached her.
Jiang Libai frowned, but the numbness that followed hit her heart. She bit her lower lip in discomfort, the bright red was thicker, adding a little moisture.
The bowls and dishes painted with exquisite patterns were far and near, and the rich aroma of dishes mixed with the scent of agarwood, made her dizzy and couldn't think of anything else.
The wooden table moved slightly, and the dishes collided, crisp and powerful.
For a long time, when the moon was rising outside the house, Gu Yun held Jiang Libai's little hand tightly and held her ten fingers together. When the temperature in her palm gradually rose, she whispered and her breathing gradually calmed down.
Then she tidied up her clothes, hugged Jiang Libai who had tears in her eyes, gathered up her collar, and put down the hem of her skirt.
After tidying up everything, she watched the person in her arms trembling with fingertips and eyelashes shaking slightly. After pursing her lips, she bent down and hugged her horizontally.
"I won't go to the garden to digest food today."
Jiang Libai nestled in her arms, and replied weakly: "Okay, it's getting late, it's time to rest."
Walking out of the dining hall, the moonlight is like water, and a few sparse stars hang in the sky.
When Chunxi heard the door opening behind her, she hurriedly turned her head, "The slave has already prepared hot water, and the princess and the son-in-law can wash up after returning to the room."
After seeing that her princess's clothes were a little disheveled, she quietly lowered her head again, looking at her nose and heart, pretending that she didn't see anything.
"Understood." Gu Yun hugged Jiang Libai and quickly returned to their bedroom. After seeing Chunxi closing the door with a wink, she walked behind the screen.
The hot water was already set, she put down Jiang Libai, ready to untie her collar.
But she dodged it lightly: "You... you go out first."
The girl's face was still dyed with a bright blush, Gu Yun couldn't move her eyes: "Shall I help you?"
Biting her lip, Jiang Libai pushed her out: "I'll just do it myself."
The ghost knows how tired she is now, she doesn't dare to approach Gu Yun anymore...
