Rebirth of marriage

"Are you awake?" Before Xie Jiu opened his eyes, he heard Gu Xiao's magnetic voice with a smile.

Her eyelashes trembled slightly and she slowly opened her eyes. She looked at the sky outside, which seemed to be shortly after dawn, and then looked at the man's face, which was radiant.

She drowsily remembered that it was probably early in the morning when they finished, and it only took about an hour for Gu Xiao to sleep.

Xie Jiu couldn't figure out why it was the man who was obviously doing his best, but it was the woman who was too tired to get up.

At this moment, she felt that worrying about Gu Xiao's body last night was unnecessary. What she should worry about most was herself.

She gave Gu Xiao an angry look and pointed to the tea cup on the small table. Gu Xiao understood and hurriedly got up and poured her a glass of water.

After finishing the wine, she looked at him eagerly again.

Gu Xiao laughed and went to pour another glass. After finishing the wine, he fell back on the bed.

The man rubbed her hair and said, "You can sleep a little longer. I will handle official duties outside today. If you need anything, call me."

Xie Jiu raised his hand and waved weakly towards him, closing his eyes and continuing to dream about Duke Zhou.

When she woke up again, it was almost noon.

After hearing the news, Gu Xiao hurriedly put down the official document in his hand and looked at her. Seeing that she still looked lackluster, there was a trace of sadness in her eyes as she looked at him.

He put his fist to his lips, coughed slightly, turned around and went to the cabinet to take out the dress he had just bought for her and put it on for her.

I fetched water for her to wash up. She thanked her for the wine without saying a word during the whole process, and her face was not very good. Yingying looked weak and pitiful.

Gu Xiao noticed something was wrong, and remembered that last night she begged for mercy with mist in her eyes. He seemed to be too much, and he might have hurt her, or she might be angry.

He softened his voice and said, "What do you want to eat for lunch? I'll let someone do it."

Xie Jiu shook his head, showing no interest.

"Then, I'll take you to a hot spring later. A dip will relieve your fatigue." She used to love hot springs.

But Xie Jiu still shook his head and said with a pout, "Tired."

The voice was so hoarse that it was almost inaudible.

Gu Xiao suddenly felt a little guilty. He unleashed his manly instincts without considering whether she could bear it.

He never expected that once this kind of thing started, it would be so uncontrollable, and he found that he seemed to be extremely talented in this area. If she hadn't repeatedly begged for mercy last night, he wouldn't have ended it so quickly.

He knew very well that he did not need abstinence to recuperate his body.

but.

He held Xie Jiu in his arms and sighed softly, "I will be more restrained from now on."

Her body needs rest.

She pressed the wine to his chest, with the corners of her mouth raised slightly. Her hoarseness and tiredness were real, but not as serious as this. If she didn't pretend to be pitiful, she was worried that this lion who had just woken up from lust would make her one day. Nothing can be done too late.

And they all have a lot to do.

As for the love in bed, the days are long and they have a lifetime together.

After lunch, Gu Xiao was still reading his official documents, while Xie Jiu asked Mo Li to send the quilt back, and then brought a note-taking notebook from her bedside.

She planned to wait for Mo Qi's matter to be finalized before setting off to search for Meishan, but before that, Gu Xiaoding would not let her return to Lin Shu's house.

Li Li quickly brought the things, and at the same time he took out a banknote from his arms and said with a naive smile, "Miss Xie Jiu, thank you for saving Mo Qi. This is my gratitude. Please accept it."

Xie Jiu noticed that this was the first time he called her a girl. In the past, he only called her by her first name. She was slightly surprised when she took the banknote, which was 1000 taels.

Lu Laosan is very good at making money. She is not short of money now, and he has never thought of asking for anything in return for helping Mo Qi.

She folded the banknote and was about to hand it back to Mo Li when Gu Xiao came over, stopped her and said warmly, "Take it."

Li Qiye was very happy, scratched his head and asked, "Miss Xie Jiu, what do you like to eat, can I buy it for you?"

This was the first time in this life that Mo Li was so enthusiastic towards him. In his previous life, because she had a bad attitude towards Gu Xiao and kept asking for benefits, Mo Li looked at her with disgust.

That's why she felt that Mo Qi's kindness was even more precious. Xie Jiu probably understood something and smiled, thinking about how to express her meaning in short words. After all, her throat could not be healed by just eating a meal.

Then Gu Xiao said, "Buy whatever you think is delicious."

"Okay, I'll go right away." Li Qiye smiled and stepped back.

Xie Jiu looked at his cheerful footsteps and said, "They have such a good relationship."

Seeing that her voice was still hoarse, Gu Xiao poured her a glass of water, added some honey to it, and then explained, "He was a beggar before me and was raised by an old beggar. The old beggar was born when he was four years old." He starved to death, and Mo Li was particularly obsessed with money and food."

He glanced at Xie Jiu and did not continue.

Xie Jiu understood, because he helped Mo Qi with this matter, Mo Li was grateful to him, recognized him, and even regarded him as a close person, so he was willing to share the money and food he cared about most with her.

Having been together for many years, perhaps Mo Li has already regarded Gu Xiao and Mo Qi as relatives.

Xie Jiu suddenly remembered that in his previous life, Mo Qi lost his arm and became a steward of the palace. The only person Gu Xiao had to use was Mo Li. After Gu Xiao's death, it must be Mo Li who led the people into the imperial city to avenge Gu Xiao.

He was not good at strategy, and his ability to get all the way into the imperial city was probably due to his lonesome courage. Even if he killed the third prince and the others, he would only be accused of treason in the end, and his end would definitely not be good.

Xie Jiu rubbed the banknote and said, "I will return it to him when he gets married."

I hope they can all have a happy ending in this life.

Hearing the word "marriage", Gu Xiao's eyes were touched. He pinched her face and said hello.

In the afternoon, Xie Jiu was busy with her own business, and Gu Xiao did not disturb her.

At dinner time, Mo Li really brought a lot of food, including roast duck and chicken, candied fruits, steamed buns and sesame cakes...

There are so many varieties that I smiled when I drank. I probably bought all the food shops on the street. Fortunately, the number is not exaggerated, otherwise I don’t know how long it will take to eat.

After everyone left, Gu Xiao asked the secret guards to pack most of them and send them to Lin Shu's house.

It's good to take it as it comes. Some foods are not good for the stomach if eaten overnight. Xie Jiu is not a rough guy like Mo Li.

Xie Jiu had become accustomed to his attentiveness, so he pursed his lips and smiled.

At night, Gu Xiao kept his promise and did nothing, and the two fell asleep hugging each other.

The next day, Gu Xiao went out for half a day and brought some official business to handle in another courtyard in the afternoon. Xie Jiu was still writing something in his notebook.

After dinner, Xie Jiu took Gu Xiao for a walk in the yard to eat. When it got completely dark and a secret guard came to report, Mo abandoned the house he had bought for Li Xiaolian.

Tonight is the time when Li Xiaolian and Shopkeeper Wang plan to attack Mo Qi.

More than an hour later, the secret guard reported again that Mo Qi had been waiting for Li Xiaolian in the house for a long time but could not find anyone, and that a murder had occurred in Wang Ji's shop on the next street.

As the personal bodyguard of King Xiao and a high-ranking general in the army, he could not ignore the murder and went to the scene of the incident.

But the people he didn't want to die turned out to be his fiancée Li Xiaolian and the shopkeeper of Wangji Shop. When he arrived, people from the county government had already interrogated the Queen Mother.

It turned out that Li Xiaolian and Shopkeeper Wang were secretly having an affair. Her wedding was approaching and she asked Shopkeeper Wang to elope with her.

Shopkeeper Wang was tired of him and refused. In anger, Li Xiaolian poisoned shopkeeper Wang's food. When shopkeeper Wang was poisoned, the Queen Mother happened to come home and witnessed all this.

The great grief of losing her son caused her to burst out with amazing strength, almost chopping Li Xiaolian into a pulp.

Li Xiaolian often helps in the shop these days. Everyone recognizes her and thinks she is shopkeeper Wang's fiancée, but she turns out to be Mo Qi's fiancée.

While everyone scolded Li Xiaolian that she deserved it, they expressed deep sympathy and pity for Mo Qi. However, Mo Qi, who valued friendship, took Li Xiaolian's body away for burial even though his eyes were red with anger.

Then another secret guard came and reported, "The brothers threw the woman's body into the wolf's den. The Queen Mother will commit suicide in prison because she misses her son."

The Queen Mother was able to successfully kill Li Xiaolian because they secretly helped her.

Xie Jiu felt that she was not a good person, and these three people were unjustly killed, so it did not make any waves in her heart.

Now that Mo was done with it, she felt relieved. She pulled Gu Xiao's sleeve and said, "I should set out to look for Meishan tomorrow."

When Gu Xiao heard that Li Sheng had come to the other courtyard in the morning, he guessed that Xie Jiu had asked him to make arrangements. Feeling a little reluctant, he asked, "Are you feeling better?"

As soon as Xie drank some wine, everyone jumped into the air and hugged him.

She wrapped her arms around his neck. They were about to be separated for more than ten days, and she would miss him too.
