Female Master: Why doesn’t my wife love me yet?

Chapter 396 She is not stupid

Gu Qingyuan raised her hand to touch his face, and Ye Wu felt her slightly cool fingertips. He stretched out his hand to grab her wrist, but suddenly, he felt that this was a bit rude and quickly put his hand down.

Ye Wu changed the subject and said, "My wife, is there anything that brought you here today? Don't worry, everything is fine in Tianji Pavilion now. I am almost done with the accounts. Please wait for me."

His tone was a little flustered, as if he was hiding something.

Just now he actually complained to his wife. It was clearly she who saved him from the Ye family and saved him from having to marry a woman who was older than his mother and could die at any time.

Now, she must hate herself, right?

Gu Qingyuan shook his head and said, "Don't worry, I didn't come here for anything. I just wanted to ask you, do you want to go home with me?"

When Ye Wu heard the word "go home", he felt a sense of belonging.

He knew that she had a husband, two concubines, and other people, and that she had three children with other people.

In fact, he has been spending the past few years in Tianji Pavilion, and even during the Chinese New Year, he ate the New Year's Eve dinner alone.

Ye Wu thought that he had long been accustomed to such a lonely life, but he never expected that when he heard her ask him "Do you want to go home with me", his eyes became sore.

"Me? Go home?"

Gu Qingyuan nodded and said, "Actually, I went to the academy today. Master Shen said that Ye Li had left the academy a long time ago. She also said that it felt like Ye Li had changed."

Ye Wu said mockingly, "When she was at home, she rarely read books and would even tear them up. She didn't change even after going to the academy."

Therefore, it was only a matter of time before Ye Li left the academy.

He suddenly asked again, "By the way, what did my wife do at the academy today?"

Gu Qingyuan said, "We still have to send Xixi to the academy. She lit a fire in the yard at home and roasted a bird with her eldest brother. Abai is very angry."

Her tone was very familiar, and although she seemed to be complaining, there was actually not much blame on her face.

Ye Wu lowered his eyes, shook his head and said, "I won't go back. I've gotten used to it here."

After returning, does he want to watch her get close to other people and ignore him again?

He returned to his cold and aloof demeanor, glanced at the account book, and continued to calculate the accounts.

"Why don't you go back? I can arrange for someone else to do the work here temporarily."

Ye Wu replied without looking up, "I'm afraid they won't be able to do it well, so I'll do it."

He felt a surge of anger in his heart, but he knew that he had no right to be angry with her.

So, he could only make himself look busy, but in fact he didn't even remember where he was just calculating.

Gu Qingyuan felt that she didn't know if it was an illusion. Why did the person who had just smiled at her seem angry again?

Did she say something wrong?

Ye Wu continued to calculate, thinking masochistically that if she hadn't sent Xixi to the academy today, she probably wouldn't have thought of him.

Originally, she had no shortage of people around her, so what was I?

Seeing that he was busy, Gu Qingyuan went out.

After she left, Ye Wu stopped calculating on the abacus and looked in the direction she came from.

Never mind, this is the only place where he can prove his worth, so he should just continue working.

......

The next day.

Gu Qingyuan still had things to deal with, so she asked Chunfen to help Xixi pack her things and send her to the academy.

Xixi was so excited about going to the academy that she couldn't sleep. She fell asleep very late and is still lying in bed at dawn.

Wen Shubai pulled her out of bed and asked her, "Do you still remember what you are going to do today?"

Xixi yawned and said, "I'm so sleepy, Dad, can you let me sleep a little longer?"

"You'll be late if you sleep any longer."

Wen Shubai took her to the mirror, combed her hair, and asked Yu Shui to bring hot water for her to wash.

"Okay, we can set off after breakfast."

After Chunfen took Xixi away, Wen Shubai asked Yushui to wake Xiaonian up.

But suddenly, Yu Shui came over hurriedly and said, "The third young lady seems to have had a nightmare."

When Wen Shubai heard this, he hurried over to take a look.

Xiao Nian was lying on the bed with her eyes closed, looking a little painful.

Wen Shubai held her in his arms and comforted her: "Xiao Nian, it's okay. Dreams are all fake. Daddy is here."

Xiao Nian felt a familiar breath and a warm embrace, and then slowly opened her eyes.

She dreamed of a room full of blood and everyone crying.

Her lips moved and a word came out.

"Blood……"

Wen Shubai checked her body and found that she had no wounds. He then asked her, "Where does Xiao Nian feel uncomfortable?"

Xiao Nian shook her head and stopped talking.

She blinked and got down from Wen Shubai's arms.

Dress yourself, wash your face and rinse your mouth.

She is obviously the youngest, but also the least worrying one.

After a while, she suddenly pulled Wen Shubai's trouser leg and said, "Sister."

Wen Shubai was stunned for a moment, then asked her, "Are you looking for Sister Xixi?"

Xiao Nian nodded.

"Sister Xixi is not at home. She went to the academy."

Xiao Nian let go of Wen Shubai again and went outside.

As she walked, she tripped again and fell to the ground.

Unlike other children who would cry loudly after falling, she just stood up calmly after falling.

The servants in the yard were frightened and rushed over to check if she was hurt anywhere.

I don't know who said it first: "The Third Miss has been like this since she was a child. She would fall even when she was walking normally."

"Yeah, she started talking late, too. I feel..."

As he spoke, the servant pointed to his head, as if to say that Xiao Nian had a problem with his brain.

But they didn't dare to say it directly, and they thought that Xiaonian, who was only three years old, couldn't hear it.

After that, Xiao Nian was stared at no matter what she did. She felt very uncomfortable and went back into the house.

She wanted to say that she was not stupid, but when she saw those people, she couldn't say it.

Xiao Nian was a little distressed and knocked his forehead.

After Xixi came to the academy.

When the students in the academy saw the new student, they happily gathered around her to greet her.

Xixi is beautiful, clean and has a safety lock hanging around her neck.

She introduced herself to everyone with a smile on her face: "My name is Gu Wenxi, you can just call me Xixi from now on."

The others all said in unison, "Hello, Xixi."

The desks and chairs in the enlightenment class are designed according to the students' height, otherwise ordinary desks and chairs would be too high for them.

The seven-year-old boy in the class is called Jia Yue, and he is much taller than everyone else.

Xixi held her face in her hands, waiting for the teacher to come and teach them.
