Chapter 295: Husband’s Allure

and even likes it.She thought, if she could just keep things this way, living out her days with this husband of hers, it wouldn't be so bad.-（To my little treasures, due to the website's requirements,...Night.

Meng Jin Yao lay on the bed, one hand propping up her head, tilting her head to look at him, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, husband, you're going to be a grandfather soon."

Seeing her smile wickedly, Gu Jingxi knew she was gloating, taking pleasure in Xiu Ming's impending fatherhood. It was best not to provoke this little troublemaker; if you did, she would hold a grudge for a long time and never miss an opportunity to mock you.

Gu Jingxi replied, "Ayao is about to be a grandmother too."

Meng Jinyao's smile did not diminish, and she asked again, "What do you think of this"

Gu Jingxi said without hesitation, "How else could I look Of course, I use two eyes to see."

Upon hearing this, Meng Jin Yao was stunned for a moment before bursting into laughter. “I never expected my husband to have such a humorous side,”

Gu Jingxi's face changed, and he looked at her with an unclear meaning: "What you mean is that I was very dull and boring before"

"I never thought that, nor have I ever said it. It was your husband who said that," Meng Jinyang giggled, her laughter shaking like flowers in the wind.

Gu Jingxi reached out and pulled her into his arms, gently pinching her cheek and solemnly saying, “You can’t bully my son anymore, but you can’t bully me either. Do you know that”

Meng Jin Yao, upon hearing this, laughed even louder, leaning into his arms and reaching up to gently cup his face. "Since your son isn't here now, let me take advantage of you a little and vent my frustration."

Looking at her acting like a child, Gu Jingxi was delighted. He played along with her, letting the little girl have her fun. A young girl should act like a young girl, full of youthful exuberance and not suppress herself or behave too maturely.

Meng Jin Yao, with a ruthlessly fierce hand, tormented his face for quite a while. Seeing the fair flush on his cheeks, she was momentarily smitten.

The man's pajamas were rumpled from her teasing, the collar opened to reveal his sexy collarbone. Her hands rubbed his cheeks until they flushed red. His eyes were soft and smiling as he looked at her, just lying there motionless, like a prize waiting to be taken.

She swallowed nervously and stammered, “Husband, you look quite alluring when your face is flushed.”

Gu Jingxi was caught off guard and teased. She was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "You're such a little girl, how come you act like a scoundrel who teases virtuous women"

Meng Jin Yao said seriously, "Why don't you look in the mirror You're really alluring."

Gu Jingxi's face turned pale, then he lowered his head and kissed her. He held her for a long time before letting go. Looking at her dazed eyes, rosy lips, and flushed cheeks, he said in a hoarse voice, "I think Ayao is even more alluring."

As soon as he said that, Meng Jingyao's face flushed, her cheeks even redder. She shyly glared at him, then thought for a moment, and feeling somewhat resentful, she wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him back.

At Qingyu Pavilion, it's said that Gu Xiuming and Li Wan'er haven't reconciled yet and are still sulking. Gu Xiuming has had the new maid, Yàn'ěr, attend to him every night for the past few days.

For a time, the servants in the manor were all whispering, that Lady Li, who was pampered and adored by the young master, took advantage of her pregnancy to act arrogant and demanding, causing the young master to grow weary of her.

The servants at Qingyuxuan's attitude towards Li Wan'er had also changed, becoming much colder and less attentive than before. They occasionally made sarcastic remarks with veiled insults.

After entering the mansion, Li Wan'er had grown accustomed to being carried by the servants of Qingyu Xuan and held in Gu Xiuming's palm. Now, this stark contrast left her feeling completely at a loss.

At the same time, she also understood that in a wealthy family's deep and grand mansion, a woman's life depended entirely on her husband. If favored, she would live comfortably; if not, she could even be mistreated by servants. Thankfully, she was now pregnant with either the Marquis' grandson or granddaughter, so they dared not go too far.

Understanding this issue, Li Wan'er also began to worry about her second half of life. She wanted to coax Gu Xiuming back, but unfortunately, Yǎn'er, someone who had served in a big household for so many years, had more skills and experience than she did. As a commoner woman, as soon as she said a word, Yǎn'er could guess what she wanted to do.

A flock of birds stirred up trouble, fanning the flames of Gu Xiuming's anger and making him even more displeased with Li Wan'er, who was already in a bad mood.

"Little Sparrow smiled and advised, 'Aunt-in-law, you're pregnant, so it's best to be more subdued. Don't exert yourself too much. It's important to nurture the baby and give the young master a strong son. Once that happens, Mother will rise in status along with her son and regain favor.' "

Li Wan'er was so angry that her face twisted in rage. She retorted defiantly, "Now that I'm pregnant, Xiu Ming only comes to you. Don't you really think he'll like you If he truly liked you, how could he let you drink the abortion soup"

The only time the swallow ever failed: "You…"

Li Wan'er sneered, "She's just a concubine maid, daring to yell at me"

The swallow girl lowered her voice and said calmly, “Where are you better than me You're just a concubine. The prince personally promised me that when the future madam enters the house, he will raise me to be a concubine. At that time, we will both be concubines. Who is more noble”

Upon hearing this, Li Wan'er's pupils constricted suddenly, she couldn't believe her ears. Brother Xiu Ming had clearly said that he wouldn't take a legitimate wife, saying that she was simply gentle and weak. If he took a legitimate wife, she would definitely be bullied by her. How could he change his mind so quickly

She instinctively retorted, "Impossible, you're lying!"

The girl with the hawk-like eyes looked at Li Wan'er strangely. She felt that this concubine was truly spoiled by the young master. It was perfectly normal for a man to take a concubine, how could he only take one Even if the young master married a wife and then took her as his concubine, he would still continue to take more concubines in the future. Which woman in a big family would dare say that she would be the last woman in his life

Li Wan'er saw that she didn't speak, her heart calmed down instead. She became even more certain that she was lying, her tone firm: "You are lying, you are deceiving me. Aren't you jealous of me being pregnant with Brother Xiu Ming's child, and then angry with me, wanting me to have a miscarriage Does Brother Xiu Ming know how vicious you are"

Suddenly, the maid Yan'er knelt down with a thud and pleaded in a mournful voice: "I was wrong, please spare me, Madam. " As she spoke, she slapped her own mouth repeatedly while saying, “It’s all my fault. I speak without thinking and have upset you.”

Li Wan'er was completely stunned by Yì'ěr's actions. She instinctively looked up and saw Gu Xiuming walking over with a grim face. Only then did she understand why Yì'ěr had suddenly acted like this.

Gu Xiuming looked at them, one arrogant and imposing, the other kneeling on the ground pitifully. He felt even angrier. He reached out and helped Yi'er up, then turned to Li Wan'er and scolded her: "Wan'er, you were once gentle and kind, not even willing to crush an ant. Now you bully your maidservant. What grudge do you have against me Tell me. Bullying a maidservant who can't resist you is nothing impressive."

Li Wan'er was speechless: "Brother Xiuming, I..."

Gu Xiumin didn't look at her again, and directly pulled Yi'er away.

Li Wan'er was filled with heartache and grievance, tears welling up in her eyes again. She had only rejected Brother Xiu once! Was he angry for so long

Hongling originally thought that Li Wan'er was favored, and by serving her, she could also live a good life. Unexpectedly, she fell out of favor in less than a year. Now, she can only serve her and hope that she gives birth to a son, regaining the affection of the Prince.

Look at her, crying with tears streaming down her face. The young maid comforted her and said: "Auntie, the young master is in a bad mood right now. Wait for a few days, when he calms down, you can go and apologize again, and you'll be as good as new. Maybe this little girl, I, am just a tool that the young master uses to anger you."

Li Wan'er listened, and her mood gradually calmed down.

Hong Ling said again, “Auntie, it’s lunchtime. Please have your meal first. You are carrying twins now, you can’t starve the children in your belly.”

As soon as Li Wan'er heard the word "child," her mind instantly cleared. The man, she could set that aside for now. The most important thing was the child. This child could help secure her position. If it were a smart and capable child, it would have a bright future, and she could benefit from it too.

She nodded repeatedly: "Hurry and set the table."

Hong Ling saw her instantly perk up. She didn't continue to wallow in sadness, showing that she was a clear-headed person who knew right from wrong. She wasn't the kind of useless fool who couldn't be helped. Hong Ling felt a little comforted and quickly replied, then went to set out the meal for her.heir family as a daughter-in-law, not as a maid. There are already maids, why should I do the work of a maid and wait on her"As she spoke, tears streamed down her face, her voice choked with grievance...
