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

Chapter 155 Hidden merit and fame

Wen Shubai curled his lips, feeling sad.

I don’t know what’s so good about other men. If my wife wants to see it, he can dance for her after he gets home, and he can dance better than those men.

Seeing that he was obviously unhappy but unwilling to speak out, Gu Qingyuan raised her hand and pulled him into her arms. He struggled and whispered, "What if someone is watching us?"

Gu Qingyuan said confidently, "Then let them watch. Who says you can't hug your husband?"

"...Then you can't touch me randomly, huh..."

Gu Qingyuan's hand slowly slid down from his waist. Because of the cover of clothes and the table in front of them, no one else noticed their actions.

But Wen Shubai felt that everyone seemed to be looking at them, and he felt a little embarrassed.

When Gu Qingyuan's hand slowly approached his thigh, Wen Shubai sat up straight and begged in a low voice: "Wife, can we go back and...?"

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore."

Gu Qingyuan withdrew her hand, rubbed her face against his, then sat back down and resumed her serious demeanor.

Wen Shubai: "...I feel like I was teased just now."

Gu Qingyuan glanced sideways at him and corrected him, "It's not like."

She just suddenly wanted to play with him.

Soon, the Fourth Princess was brought over. Her eyes first locked onto Gu Qingyuan before she said, "I am late. Please forgive me, Mother."

"Why did you arrive just now?"

The Queen asked her with dissatisfaction in her voice.

"Yes, there were some things in the palace that delayed me."

"What could be more important than Your Majesty?"

"That's right, this Fourth Princess is lying."

The fourth princess's face turned pale and blue, but she didn't know how to directly tell what had just happened.

Fortunately, today was the Queen's birthday, so she didn't pursue the matter any further and just warned the Fourth Princess.

She sat back with lingering fear and took out the gift she had prepared for the queen long ago.

"This is a piece of porcelain that I obtained outside the palace that changes color when exposed to water."

The Fourth Princess had someone bring in the porcelain and introduced it, "When there's no water in it, it looks normal. But if you put water in it, it changes color."

The Queen thought it was quite novel and asked someone to add water. As a result, the bottom actually changed color.

Her expression softened a bit, and she asked, "Does anyone know what the reason is?"

The people present were stunned. They had never seen this before, let alone knew the reason.

The fourth princess was very pleased with herself, enjoying the look of these people being in trouble, and was about to speak.

But at this moment, someone stood up.

"It just so happens that I know a little bit."

After Gu Qingyuan opened her mouth, everyone's eyes turned to her.

The fourth princess looked at her fiercely, wanting to see what she would say.

Only she knew that this porcelain was actually coated with a special substance, but she didn't know what it was.

"Oh?"

The Queen saw Gu Qingyuan stand up and said, "Young Master Gu, why don't you tell me why this porcelain changes color when it comes into contact with water?"

Gu Qingyuan took a look at the discolored porcelain and said slowly, "If I'm not mistaken, there's actually an acid-base indicator at the bottom of this porcelain."

As soon as she finished speaking, the people below began to talk.

"Acid-base indicator, what is this?"

"This is the first time I've heard of this. How did Young Master Gu know about this?"

"Let's just listen to her continue. We don't know if she's just talking nonsense."

The Queen also signaled Gu Qingyuan to continue.

"It seems everyone is very curious about this. Young Master Gu, please stop keeping us in suspense and tell us all about it."

Gu Qingyuan smiled slightly and brought out the chemistry knowledge he had learned before.

"I see the water in this porcelain is red, so I think the water Your Majesty added must be acidic."

"Yes, I did put some lemon juice in the water I just added. I asked someone to add the lemonade before I could even drink it."

"Your Majesty, you can try adding some alkaline water, which is actually the well water you usually drink..."

Everyone was attracted by Gu Qingyuan's words and wanted to see what it would look like if well water was added into it.

"Someone, go get some well water."

The queen poured out the water in the porcelain, and waited for someone to fetch well water and add it in. The fruit really changed color again, not the red color just now, but blue!

“This is incredible.”

When they saw the water turn blue, their jaws dropped.

"How did you find out?"

The Queen looked at Gu Qingyuan and asked her excitedly. Not only did she know that the water she had just added was acidic, she also knew that adding well water could turn the water in the porcelain into other colors.

“I just happened to know about it.”

Gu Qingyuan sat back, keeping his achievements and fame to himself.

However, the palace was in an uproar, and everyone was curious about the porcelain.

The Fourth Princess had an ugly expression on her face. She had not expected that Gu Qingyuan knew more about the gift she had given to the Queen Mother than she did. If the Queen Mother asked her now, she might not be able to explain as much as Gu Qingyuan.

Especially, she had never heard of the acid-base indicator.

The fourth princess flicked her sleeves and glanced resentfully in Gu Qingyuan's direction.

The gifts given by others afterwards were not as pleasing to the empress as the previous ones. She asked the palace servants to accept the gifts and put them aside without much interest, and was very interested in Gu Qingyuan's words.

She also wanted to ask Gu Qingyuan about the discoloration of porcelain, but with so many people present, she could only suppress her inner excitement and talk with them while eating and enjoying the show in the hall.

Wen Shubai was also attracted by Gu Qingyuan's knowing-it-all attitude. After she sat back down, he looked at her with admiration and asked, "Wife, how do you know everything?"

Gu Qingyuan smiled and rubbed his ears, "I don't know everything either."

"what?"

Wen Shubai wondered if there was something his wife didn't understand?

Then I heard her say nonchalantly: "For example, I really can't guess what you're thinking."

Wen Shubai pulled her hand away from his ear and said angrily, "What kind of answer is that? My dear wife, you are making fun of me again."

Gu Qingyuan laughed heartily and coaxed him, "Alright, alright, come and eat something."

Gu Qingyuan picked up a piece of cake and brought it to his mouth. He was very cautious, as if he was afraid of biting her hand.

"Wife, you try it too."

"it is good."

The loving appearance of the two people hurt the person on the other side. Lin Xinghe looked at the person who had protected him before coming in, and now flirting with her husband, and imagined that the person sitting next to her was himself.

Lin Weiwei saw him looking at Gu Qingyuan and said, "Don't look at her. She doesn't like you."

His face looked even uglier, and he sat there in a depressed mood, unable to eat the food he used to like.

"I'll find a suitable family for you to marry someday."
