Chapter 138 The Young Master Likes You the Most
Wen Shubai was also a little worried after learning that Gu Qingyuan had been brought into the palace. However, he thought that with her abilities, all problems would be easily solved, and thinking of this, he felt a little relieved.
In the afternoon, Gu Qingyuan returned home, wondering how to talk to Wen Shubai.
After all, the relationship between the two had just improved, and she was going to add another person to the family.
Well, I have to compensate him.
After preparing herself mentally, Gu Qingyuan came to Wen Shubai's room.
When he saw Gu Qingyuan, surprise flashed in his eyes, "Young Master, you're here."
"Ah."
Gu Qingyuan looked at the surrounding furnishings. In order to help them better adapt to the new environment, the furnishings in each of their rooms in this house were similar to those in the general's mansion.
After moving in, the task of housekeeping was handed over to Wen Shubai. At this time, he was checking the accounts with the account book. After seeing Gu Qingyuan, he put down the account book and stood up.
Noticing the faint bruises under his eyes, Gu Qingyuan walked over to him and raised her hand to touch his eyes.
"You have worked hard during this time."
"It's not hard."
When he was in the general's mansion, there were other people taking care of the accounts, so he had a relatively leisurely life in Meiyuan every day. Now that he has moved here, in order to prove his ability to her, Wen Shubai stays up very late before going to bed.
Although he said that it was not hard, how could Gu Qingyuan not see it? She withdrew her hand and took him to sit aside.
"You, don't put so much pressure on yourself. There's still a lot of time left, so there's no need to rush."
Wen Shubai had a faint smile on his face, knowing that his wife was concerned about him.
"I understand. Thank you for your concern, my wife. I will pay attention to it in the future."
The atmosphere was peaceful.
Afterwards, he casually spoke again, "By the way, my wife, what did my mother say to you when we entered the palace today?"
"His Majesty summoned me to ask me some questions, but everything is fine now."
The Chu Feast is dead, and those small countries are like they have lost their core.
We don’t have to worry about war for now. At least we can have peace for more than ten years.
"At least it's okay."
It was obvious that she didn't want to reveal too much to him, so Wen Shubai didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he picked up the account book on the table and showed it to Gu Qingyuan.
In the past, Gu Qingyuan only knew that he knew a little bit of arithmetic, but she didn't expect that he could calculate accounts so quickly and accurately.
There was an abacus on the table, and Gu Qingyuan casually moved it twice.
"I have a simpler algorithm."
Gu Qingyuan first talked to him about "multiplication and division", and he understood it after explaining it once.
"Look, we can make a formula and calculate it..."
"When the number reaches ten, move one up to the next person."
"This is decimal. There's also binary. I'll explain it to you later."
Wen Shubai stared at the mysterious symbols she had drawn on the paper and asked, "Is this also what my wife's former master taught her?"
"Yes."
Gu Qingyuan was glad that she had found such an excuse for herself.
After all, how could her former teacher not be called her master?
The multiplication table she proposed to the Queen was implemented throughout the country, and most people even knew it by heart.
Some people who were not convinced took a branch and calculated on the ground themselves, but found that the multiplication table was completely correct.
Gu Qingyuan taught Wen Shubai these "ghostly symbols", which were actually Arabic numerals, so that it would be more convenient for him to use them for calculations.
When writing the number "8", Wen Shubai wondered: "This symbol looks like a gourd."
However, he still followed the path of Gu Qingyuan's writing of this character and tried to draw it.
It was almost evening when Gu Qingyuan finally remembered the important matter.
Wen Shubai had been studying with her for the entire afternoon and was feeling a little tired. He smiled slightly and said, "Wife, would you like to stay for dinner?"
"Okay," Gu Qingyuan nodded, "but I have one more thing to tell you."
After spending an entire afternoon with her and learning this simple calculation method from her, which was a treatment no one else had, Wen Shubai was happy in his heart. When he heard her say that she had something to tell him, he didn't take it seriously.
"If you have anything to say, just tell me directly."
Why should they be so polite to each other?
"I might have to bring someone back in a few days."
Wen Shubai immediately became nervous. He wanted to bring more people?
He asked her with the last glimmer of hope: "Is it a boy or a girl?"
If it's a girl, it doesn't matter, the family needs someone to do the work.
"He's my classmate in college."
"That's the girl, don't worry, if you invite her to your home, I will definitely prepare a good banquet to entertain your classmates."
Wen Shubai thought it was her friend and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
But unexpectedly, she shook her head and said, "He is a man."
Wen Shubai felt his blood freeze. He said in disbelief, "But doesn't Baichuan Academy only accept men?"
"He came to the academy on behalf of his sister."
The good mood of the whole afternoon was gone, and Wen Shubai said bitterly: "Then my wife means that you want to take him into the house?"
Seeing the disappointment on his face, Gu Qingyuan grabbed his arm and said, "Listen to me!"
Wen Shubai slowly pried open the fingers that were holding his arm, and when he listened carefully, he could hear a tearful tone in his voice.
"My wife, what else do you want to say? I'm a little tired today. Let's discuss it tomorrow."
Seeing that his condition was indeed not very good, Gu Qingyuan did not dare to mention it again and said, "Okay, you should have a good rest today. I will come back tomorrow."
After Gu Qingyuan left, Yu Shui, who was guarding outside, walked in and asked, "Master, what happened? Why do I feel that the young master doesn't seem happy?"
But when he looked again, he found that his master's tears as big as beans were rolling down.
"You, you, you had a fight with the young master?"
Yu Shui was so excited that he even forgot to use honorifics.
Wen Shubai tried hard to suppress his emotions, but he felt even more uncomfortable.
"Weren't you two getting along fine before? Why are you arguing?" Yu Shui was puzzled.
Wen Shubai kept crying without saying a word.
Yu Shui handed him a handkerchief to wipe his tears. After a while, he saw that his master's eyes were as red as a rabbit's.
"Tell me, does she really have me in her heart?"
After learning the news of her "death", I wished I could go straight to the underworld to find her.
But she, this heartless woman, had only been home for a short time when she was adding another person to the family.
Although he knew that a woman could not love only one man, he still hoped that he would be the most special one in her heart.
"Sure."
Rain nodded.
"The young master must like you the most."
Yu Shui didn't know how many times Wen Shubai had asked her this question, and now she could answer it much more smoothly.
