Chapter 66 Asking the Heart
Chunge Li Jianan was all smiles and also laughed.
"I only have close friends like Nanny and Jade around me. Why don't you let me worry about you?"
Lian Zhi had already fetched water and came over to help Li Jian'an cleanse his face and wipe his hands, and then helped Li Jian'an change into a pine-green landscape painting.
After everything was done, Li Jianan waved his hand and told the maids and wives to retreat.
As soon as the person left, Li Jianan took a few steps over and hugged Chun Ge, rested his chin on her soft and satin-like hair and rubbed it a few times, complaining: "The maid and wet nurse are your intimates, so who am I to you?"
"
Chunge paused for a moment, raised her eyes to look at Li Jianan, and saw that Li Jianan's sharp eyes were full of seriousness.
When Li Jian'an saw that Chunge didn't answer immediately, he felt a little frustrated at first.
When I had such trouble with Chen Chunfang in the past, what I liked most was to have a virtuous and generous wife who could help manage the family affairs at home, be filial to the elders, and get along harmoniously with my sister-in-law.
Now what Chen Chunfang cannot do, this little girl in her arms can do it.
Act without arrogance or impatience, advance and retreat in a measured manner, and pay attention to the overall situation.
But there was a place in my heart that made me feel more and more dissatisfied. I always felt that every time I held her, my body was warm and fragrant, but the heart inside was lost somewhere.
Day after day, I couldn't find the root cause, so I could only hope that she would take him more seriously, otherwise I would feel inexplicably annoyed every time I saw her gentle and compassionate attitude towards my aunt, which was a little gentler than mine.
Chen Chunfang was cruel to her concubine and concubine, which made her worried.
This silly girl shows mercy to my concubine and cares about my concubine, but she still feels uncomfortable.
After thinking about it, I have become a difficult person to maintain.
Chun Ge couldn't figure out what Li Jian'an was thinking, so she could only smile sweetly, "The Duke of the State said this very well. You are the backbone of this family, how can you compare with the maids and wet nurses?"
Li Jian'an lowered his head and looked at Chun Ge's smiling face, but his eyes were clear and clear, and he felt a little depressed in his heart. He rubbed Chun Ge's hair and said with a forced smile: "Really?"
Of course, Chunge could see that Li Jian'an was depressed, but it was hard to ask any more questions. Lest Li Jian'an would ask some unbelievable questions and make out-of-character remarks, she coaxed Li Jian'an to go and rest first.
Li Jian'an sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Chun Ge squatting on the ground and taking off his shoes attentively and naturally. The uncomfortable awkwardness from the last time came back again, and he blurted out: "Are you willing to serve me like this?"
What kind of words are these?
If you want to say that you are willing, of course you are not willing. After all, you are not a real ancient woman. Even if you try your best to adapt, you will still not be.
From the perspective of other women here, no matter how smart or fierce they are, it is their duty to serve their husbands.
But I think that the way for husband and wife to get along is to respect each other and be considerate to each other. Such requirements and rules would undoubtedly be ridiculous if told to Li Jianan.
Chun Ge put aside her thoughts and raised a face as bright as a spring flower and said, "How come the Duke of the State says something strange today? You are my husband, and it is my duty to serve you. How could I not be willing to do so?"
Li Jian'an rubbed Chun Ge's face, which was as delicate as gelatin, and smiled bitterly for a while: "You are indeed willing."
When Chun Ge was still in the mist and didn't understand what was going on with Li Jian'an, Li Jian'an suddenly bent down and put on his shoes, said that he was going to Jing Si Zhai and didn't have to wait for meals, and left.
Tong's mother and Feicui were standing outside, watching Li Jian'an happily go in. They were secretly happy at first. But then they saw Li Jian'an lift the curtain himself and walk out with a gloomy look on his face, and he suddenly felt anxious.
After Li Jian'an left, Tong's mother hurriedly went into the back room. She was startled when she saw Chunge squatting on the ground and staring at the door. She went over to help Chunge stand up and muttered: "Madam, what's going on?
Okay, the Duke was very happy at first, did you say something or did something to make the Duke unhappy?"
Chun Ge still stood there in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.
Tong's mother was very anxious, and Jade and Ruby looked at Chun Ge worriedly.
The wife was married as a concubine and had no foundation in the first place. Even if she is a legitimate daughter, the Chen family is not even the slightest bit different from the Duke's family. You can't expect your natal family to help you fight for favor.
The wife now looks at the doting wife, but she actually does it for the sake of the Duke of Guo. In the final analysis, the whole family depends on the Duke of Guo for their survival.
If the wife loses the heart of the Duke without even knowing the reason, how will she live in the future?
Besides, Madam has not yet gone to the ancestral hall to pay her respects in a serious manner, and has not even decided on the formal status of her stepmother, just in case the Duke marries another one.
The more the young mothers thought about it, the more frightened they became, and in the end they were simply shuddering.
"Madam, madam, you should tell me what's going on, so we can think of something together. At any rate, the Duke of Guo is doting on you these days. If we find out the root cause, we want to win back the Duke of Guo's heart.
It’s not difficult to be wild.”
Mother Tong thought about it, but she was afraid that she would scare Chunge if she said something too harshly, and she was also afraid that Chunge would be pampered by Li Jianan during this period, so she lost her sense of proportion and became disapproving, and was so anxious that she stammered a sentence.
Chun Ge concentrated for a long time, and when she came back to her senses, she saw the anxious and uneasy expressions of the children's mothers next to them, and she couldn't help but laugh a few times.
Seeing Chun Ge smiling, even Lu Yu couldn't help but murmured: "Madam, you are still smiling. There was no time when the Duke of Guo was not very happy when he left you. Today, after all the tricks, he pointed out
Maybe there will be rumors about a car tomorrow. Mother Tong is right, you'd better think of a way to make amends to the Duke."
At this time, Chun Ge had vaguely guessed Li Jian'an's thoughts. Although he was not ready to completely let go of his heart and become a true intimate couple with Li Jian'an, he felt that such Li Jian'an was really rare and was ready to make amends with him.
Coax him.
Seeing that Mother Tong and the others were so anxious, Chun Ge had no choice but to suppress his smile and promised: "Okay, okay, I know, don't worry, it's not a big deal, it's just something else that made the Duke angry.
."
The child's mother was half convinced and said: "Isn't the Duke really angry with you?"
Of course he's not irritating me, he's irritating himself...
Unexpectedly, Li Jianan's temperament became more and more like that of a child.
But only in front of people you really care about can you let go of your guard and show your true nature.
Chun Ge sighed inwardly and promised, "Don't worry, it's not me. I know what's appropriate."
He also asked Hongyu to ask the small kitchen to prepare good osmanthus candy, saying that he would go to the kitchen in person to make osmanthus honey cake for Li Jianan and deliver it to him.
