Yan Hongfei was in a bad mood that day.
I thought that after establishing a relationship with the Minister of Civil Affairs, I would be able to get the official position of a doctor. During these days, even when he was in the Yamen of the Ministry of War, he could not help but look a little proud.
Who can realize that their dreams come true?
I thought of sneaking to the official department to see Lord Shangshu before leaving the Yamen.
The official's face was full of hatred, and he said a lot of things. In short, it was Yan Hongfei who missed this opportunity.
A priceless "Fishing Alone Picture" was given away, and in exchange for such a result, Yan Hongfei's heart was bleeding.
I sat in the study with such a gloomy face until the moon was high in the sky, and there was a knock on the door of the study.
"Master Hou, may Qiu Shui come in?"
There was Gu Qiushui's voice outside.
After that, without waiting for Yan Hongfei's answer, the door was pushed open with a creak.
Gu Qiushui looked at the dark study room without any lights, and walked in holding up her skirt.
In the dimness, Yan Hongfei could see what she was holding in one hand.
He continued to look solemn and said nothing.
Gu Qiushui carefully avoided the broken porcelain on the ground, walked to the desk and put the things in his hands away. Then he turned around, found the fire folding piece, and lit the oil lamp in the study.
The dancing firelight reflected her soft figure, which was really touching.
But at this time, Yan Hongfei had no intention of looking at this.
Gu Qiushui didn't care, walked up behind Yan Hongfei, gently massaged his temples, and said softly: "Master Hou, although Qiu Shui doesn't know why, I heard that Master Hou didn't use his dinner. How can this be done?" So I stewed a bowl of nourishing soup without any greasiness. Now that I have an appetite, you can try it."
Her fingers were long and soft, with a slight warmth.
Yan Hongfei felt that his head, which had been heavy for a long time, felt relieved, and his mood also became better.
He patted Gu Qiushui's hand and said, "Come and sit down."
Gu Qiushui stopped and turned to Yan Hongfei. He wanted to sit on a chair on the side, but he grabbed him and pulled him down.
She exclaimed and fell onto Yan Hongfei's lap.
Yan Hongfei held her waist with less than a hand and sighed deeply.
"Master Hou, Qiu Shui boldly asks, what are you worried about?"
Yan Hongfei told her about his failure in seeking the position of doctor.
After hearing this, Gu Qiushui looked a little surprised, "How could such a trivial matter hurt Mr. Hou?"
"Master Marquis, in my heart, you are an upright man. I have seen some anecdotes about celebrities in the past. Who has a smooth life?"
"Most of the people who have left their names in history are those who never gave up in the face of ups and downs. Lord Marquis, it is not right for you to be like this."
With a smile on her face, she put her arms around Yan Hongfei's neck, put her chin on his neck, and said softly, "Good man, why should you care about temporary gains and losses?"
Warm breath lingered in Yan Hongfei's ears.
But it did not arouse Yan Hongfei's charming thoughts at all. On the contrary, Gu Qiushui's words ignited some ambition in him.
"You're right!" Yan Hongfei sighed, "I was temporarily confused."
Gu Qiushui smiled, stood up, brought the soup to Yan Hongfei's mouth, and watched him drink it in one gulp.
Yan Hongfei wiped the corner of his mouth, picked him up and put him on the desk.
As the light of the oil lamp flickered on and off, Gu Qiu Shui's brows were smiling, her eyes were filled with autumn waves, and she was indescribably gentle and affectionate...
After learning that hot water had been supplied to Yan Hongfei's study, Liu Xinyue, who was still waiting for Yan Hongfei's return in Taohuawu with disheveled hair and red eyes, was stunned. In her anxiety, she also smashed a set of shiny new porcelain. .
When Mrs. Ji heard about it, she smiled lightly and ordered someone to send another identical set to Taohuawu.
When he got up early the next morning, Yan Hongfei went to the Yamen in high spirits.
He decided that he would never take leave easily again.
Oddly enough, after a night of lingering with Gu Qiushui, Yan Hongfei always felt that he felt a lot more refreshed.
Previously, my mind always seemed to be filled with a layer of fog, and occasionally I would feel dizzy.
Now, it is much clearer.
Yan Hongfei wanted to give himself a slap in the face when he recalled that he had frequently asked for leave before, which had affected his career.
After he left, Gu Qiushui straightened her skirt and Shi Shiran left the study.
Outside, as expected, he saw Liu Xinyue with a gloomy face.
"Hello, Sister Liu." Gu Qiushui knelt down.
Her stunning face was filled with brightness moistened by rain and dew, which made Liu Xinyue's heart ache.
"Don't think that just because you have the Marquis' favor, you can step on my head."
Liu Xinyue gritted her teeth, "You can't separate the relationship between me and Mr. Hou!"
Gu Qiushui was surprised, "I don't understand what Sister Liu said. We are all the Marquis's concubines, aren't we just to make him happy? When it comes to love, the Marquis and his wife are husband and wife, and that is harmony. we……"
She covered her lips and smiled, lowered her eyebrows and did not continue speaking. She twisted her slender waist and walked away.
Looking at her leaving figure, Liu Xinyue's eyes were filled with blood. After a long time, he bit his lip and walked into Yan Hongfei's study.
[Why is she going to the study? 】
After hearing the news from Tang Rui, Yan Jiaojiao was puzzled.
Ordinarily, if he was jealous, shouldn't he have blocked Yan Hongfei and Gu Qiushui in the study earlier?
Everyone has left. What will Liu Xinyue do when she enters the study again?
Ji thought about it for a moment and figured out the key.
Liu Xinyue secretly left the house at first, but when she came back, she was loved by Yan Hongfei again.
If there is no reason here, Ji will definitely not believe it.
After Liu Xinyue came back that day, Yan Hongfei never stayed with Gu Qiushui again, and his love for Liu Xinyue became stronger and stronger day by day.
But yesterday, Gu Qiushui and Yan Hongfei were together, and Liu Xinyue hurried to the study early in the morning.
It seems that her method of regaining favor from outside is probably about to fail.
So she went to the study room to make up for it regardless.
The more he thought about it, the more Ji felt that this guess was good.
Yan Jiaojiao's eyes rolled around, wondering what her mother was doing.
But before she could ask, a maid came outside to report that the Ninth Prince was here again.
When Ji came back to her senses, her expression changed.
A few days ago, His Royal Highness took his daughter to visit Princess Yong'an, and encountered an assassin on the way. How could she trust her daughter to play with him again?
But...she can't kick him out when the prince comes.
Just as he was thinking about it, all the Ninth Princes arrived at the door.
"Madam, I'm here to play with Jiao Jiao!"
The Ninth Prince ran in happily, looking like a child without any worries.
Yan Jiaojiao was speechless.
I thought to myself, just pretend. Anyway, no one can believe that you are so scheming at such a young age when you see it with your own eyes.
Then, the scheming Ninth Prince jumped through the door, waved his hand and said casually, "Madam, there is no need to be polite, just treat me as a junior."
Before Ji could say anything, he stepped forward and picked up Yan Jiaojiao, "I'll take you out to play!"
