Chapter 256: Teasing Jing Xi

such an injusticeShe was the apple of her parents' eyes from the moment she was born, and her grandmother doted on her as well. Besides inheriting the family business, she was the most beloved member...Upon hearing this, Gu Jingxi was slightly stunned. Looking at the girl in his arms, he felt a warmth spread through his chest, as if it were being filled. The feeling of being needed by his little wife also brought him joy.

He gently patted her on the back and said softly, "From now on, if anything happens to Ayayo, don't hide it from me. Like today's matter, don't hide it from me either."

Meng Jinyao replied, "Actually, I'm quite confident today and would like to invite my husband to watch a play."

Gu Jingxi looked at her, his face solemn. "Ayao, from now on, no matter if you have confidence or not, please tell me in advance, okay"

Meng Jiny Yao smiled and retorted, "Does my husband not trust my abilities"

Gu Jingxi shook his head and said softly, "It's not that I don't trust you, it's that I want to know everything about you."

He finished speaking, and Meng Jin Yao was slightly startled. Seeing the man's gaze fixed on her, his usually gentle eyes now held a hint of possessiveness, a possessiveness directed at her.

She curled the corner of her lips, holding the man's face and asking, "Does hubby want to know what I'm thinking now"

Gu Jingxi nodded in response: "Yes"

I was thinking of my husband...

Meng Jin Yao spoke halfway, a knowing smile curled at the corner of her lips. She glanced at him with a sly look in her eyes, then leaned close to his ear and whispered something in a low voice.

Gu Jingxi's face flushed hot, an unnatural redness creeping across her cheeks. She looked at her little wife in disbelief. She couldn't believe this girl would say something so bold and straightforward.

---I'm thinking, since my husband is so handsome, his body should also be very attractive.---

He felt like he was being teased.

Meng Jin Yao appreciated his shy demeanor with great interest, feeling a sense of wonder in her heart. It turned out that Gu Jing Xi could be shy, and blush as well! His blushing was quite attractive, for his skin was already fair, now it appeared rosy with the flush.

Seeing her overjoyed like a cat that had stolen fish, Gu Jingxi knew she was doing it on purpose. He couldn't help but laugh in amusement and pinched her soft little face, asking: "Little baddie, who did you learn this from You dare to tease me

"Learned from my husband"

Meng Jin Yao blinked her eyes innocently, looking at the man. Don't look at this man, he used to be very serious. Even though they slept on the same bed, he never overstepped. But now he's completely changed, like two extremes compared to before.

Gu Jingxi asked again, "What would Ay Yao like to see"

Meng Jinyao honestly replied, "Thinking"

She had never seen a man before and was very curious. Although there were pictures in the "Manual for Newlyweds," they were blurry, and the men's bodies weren't attractive. Her husband had a slender waist, and she could feel the smooth muscles even through his clothes; he must be handsome.

Gu Jingxi was stunned, seemingly not expecting such an answer. He looked at her eagerly, not like she was joking. He was taken aback again, couldn't help but question his life, a young lady would actually like to look at men's bodies Men liking to look at women's bodies is natural, even he couldn't escape it, but he only looked at the woman in his arms.

He met his young wife's gaze for a moment in silence and replied, "I'll show you later."

Meng Jinyáo smiled and replied, "Okay"

Why is it later She guessed that he probably wasn't ready to show her, otherwise why would he not take anything off when she was completely naked

It's okay, she can wait.

Oh--

Here’s a man, nearly thirty years old, more embarrassed than this young girl Just taking a look won’t make any difference to his physique, she's already seen him completely anyway. Let me know if you have anything else you'd like translated!

Gu Jingxi didn't know what she was muttering in her heart. Seeing that she was fine, he kissed her cheek and said softly, "Ayao, I still have some official business to deal with. I'll go to the study first. If you need anything, just ask someone to find me.

Meng Jin Yao nodded repeatedly: "Go ahead, my husband."

She stopped speaking and suddenly remembered something, adding, "Oh right, now that everything is done, we can return Chan'er to her husband."

At first glance, there's nothing wrong with this statement, but upon closer inspection, it feels strange and ambiguous. Gu Jingxi immediately corrected, "What do you mean 'give it to me' She doesn't belong to me; you do."

Meng Jin Yao was taken aback. When she said that, she hadn't thought much about it; she just thought of him as her husband's person, just like Qing Qiu and Ning Dong were hers. It wasn't the kind of meaning between men and women.

Gu Jingxi continued, "Chan'er's martial arts are still decent. Let her stay by your side to help out. She's a young woman, so it'll be convenient for you to take her with you when you go out. If you encounter any trouble, she can resolve it immediately. Unlike those four useless fellows, Chun Xia Qiu Dong, if they run into danger, they're helpless."

Meng Jin Yao didn't react immediately, and asked in confusion: "Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter"

Gu Jingxi explained: "Spring willows, summer bamboo, clear autumn, and condensed winter."

Meng Jinyao instantly understood. Chunliu and Xiazhu were the maidservants of Weiruixuan, while Qingqiu and Ningdong were the maidservants she had brought over. Coincidentally, the four of them formed a perfect representation of spring, summer, autumn, and winter.

However, she also felt that Gu Jingxi made sense. Having a maidservant who knew martial arts by her side would make things much more convenient for her, and she could also be protected. So she nodded in agreement: "Then I'll accept Chan'er, but what should I assign her to do What did she used to do"

Gu Jingxi replied, "In the past, things like fighting and killing, I'll leave it to you to arrange from now on."

Meng Jin Yao: ""

Chán'er has a gentle and demure temperament, her eyes are also very clean. She is the kind of woman who quietly and obediently stays within the confines of her home. Chán'er, she thought, even if she understands martial arts, it would be for graceful and refined pursuits. Never did she imagine that she used to be one who fought and killed!

Gu Jingxi probably knew what she was thinking and smiled, "Don't be fooled by her appearance, she looks like a weak woman, but in reality, she is very strong. When facing enemies, she kills without hesitation, no worse than Zhou Yun by my side, just her martial arts skills are not as good as Zhou Yun's."

Meng Jiny Yao stammered, "That makes me even more unsure what to assign her to do."

Gu Jingxi casually arranged a position: "Then let her clean the courtyard, stay at Weiruixuan to be our guardian, and don't bother with her when she's free, just pretend she doesn't exist. When something happens, ask her to do it, and take her out if necessary."

Meng Jinyao was stunned for a moment, "Ah" she exclaimed, immediately disagreeing, "Cleaning the courtyard is work that maids do, how could you make her do it"

Gu Jingxi said nonchalantly, "Perhaps she prefers cleaning the yard"

Meng Jinyao didn't believe it. She summoned Chan'er and asked about her wishes, even letting her choose what kind of work she wanted to do.

When Chan'er learned that her mistress was going to keep her, she thought it was a good idea. She didn't have to run around and work hard staying by her mistress's side, but looking at her delicate mistress, to be honest, she didn't really know how to take care of someone so fragile. She felt it would be better to do some rough work, move her limbs around, otherwise, her bones would rust. She would never be able to beat Zhou Yun in this lifetime.

"As for that, Chan'er readily replied, "Madam, I think sweeping the courtyard is quite good. If I could chop firewood too, that would be even better. Unfortunately, there is no need to chop firewood while working at Weiruixuan. Let me take care of fetching water in the courtyard as well."

Meng Jin Yao was speechless for a moment:“……”

I never expected that there would actually be someone who likes to do hard labor, and it's even a young woman.

She looked at Chan'er, remained silent for a while before nodding: "Then you will work with the maids who sweep the courtyard and carry water. If you find it uncomfortable, just tell me, and I will assign you something else."annot be changed in the short term. We can only push for gradual change through one case after another, refining and improving them, taking the essence and discarding the dross. Or we can try our best...
