The Grand Secretary’s Pampered Wife

Xiao Liulang broke out in a cold sweat.

This wouldn’t do.

They were only nominal husband and wife. One day, they would have to say goodbye to each other.

The two of them... should never let some feelings they shouldn't have arise.

As Xiao Liulang sat for the meal, he could see the white academy uniform fluttering in the wind while being dried outside, which made him feel a little distraught.

After dinner, Xiao Liulang gave Little Jing Kong a bath as usual, then picked up an axe and went to the backyard to chop wood.

Meanwhile, Gu Jiao was tidying up the kitchen.

As for the elderly woman, she was eating the dried bayberries she had stolen once again in her room.

The sky began to pour.

“JiaoJiao, JiaoJiao!” Little Jing Kong suddenly ran out of the west room with a small pillow in arms. He said, "The roof is leaking!"

Gu Jiao went to the west room with him to have a look.

It was not raining very much now, but the afternoon rain must have accumulated on the tiles, and as the wind blew, it caused the water to leak.

The spot that was leaking was right above the bed of the two, and fixing it wasn’t easy. Moreover, when the rain got heavy in the middle of the night, it might still cause the tiles to break. This roof was already troubling even before, it wouldn’t be good if the heavy rain caused it to collapse completely.

Gu Jiao said, "You shouldn’t sleep here tonight. Sleep in my room. I'll fix the roof when the rain stops."

Little Jing Kong happily went to Gu Jiao's room with his small pillow.

Xiao Liulang, of course, could only sleep together with them.

Fortunately, Gu Jiao's bed was big enough that the three of them could actually lie down together on it.

Just, Little Jing Kong didn’t really want to share the bed with his bad brother-in-law. After all, his bad brother-in-law was so big that he had to occupy a large area. Unlike his small size, which was enough to nest in JiaoJiao's arms.

"I'm happy to be able to sleep with JiaoJiao!"

Little Jing Kong, who was full of joy, lay on Gu Jiao's bed just as he had been wanting all this time. He covered his body with JiaoJiao’s quilt, JiaoJiao’s mattress was also lying under his body, and there was JiaoJiao's pillow underneath his head as well, then JiaoJiao's pillow cloth, JiaoJiao’s, JiaoJiao’s, JiaoJiao’s……

Little Jing Kong rolled back and forth on the bed in great excitement.

Suddenly, the door of the room was opened, and a claw reached out to him, grabbed his little waistband, and snatched him away.

Little Jing Kong's hands and feet fluttered in air in surprise, "Grandaunt?"

Elderly woman: "You’re sleeping with me tonight."

Little Jing Kong: "I don't want to!"

Elderly woman: "You do."contemporary romance

Little Jing Kong: "Why?"

Elderly woman: "For my great grandnephews and nieces."

The elderly woman took the little guy back to her own room without mercy.

Little Jing Kong's dream fell through just like this. There was an unreasonable brother-in-law before, and now there was an even more unreasonable Grandaunt. Expecting a child was really a tragedy for him ah!

By the time Gu Jiao and Xiao Liulang were done with what they were doing, Little Jing Kong was already exhausted in a battle of wits with the elderly woman. His head tilted and he soon started snoring.

Gu Jiao didn't say anything about it. After taking a bath, she went back to the room and lay down on the bed.

Having been tired all day today, she fell asleep quickly, and soon her breathing became even.

Xiao Liulang came over after taking a bath as well and found Gu Jiao already asleep on the bed.

An oil lamp was left for him in the room.

Now that the weather was getting warmer, a thick quilt for cover was no longer comfortable. She used half of it to cover herself while kicked away the other half.

Xiao Liulang hesitated for a moment, then went over and pulled the quilt over her.

Then he put out the oil lamp and slowly lay down beside her. At first, he had his back turned on her, but the body was prone to numbness when it stayed in the same position for a long time.

So he turned around.

What he didn't know was that Gu Jiao also happened to turn around and put her head on his pillow.

His lips brushed her cheek without warning.

His mind buzzed for a moment before it immediately went blank completely.

It was raining heavily outside, the raindrops producing a knocking noise on the roof tiles, and yet he could hear nothing but his own heartbeat.

Subconsciously, he raised his hand, intending to push her away, but before he could do so, he felt a strange softness in his palm, then his mind exploded with a bang...

Gu Jiao slept very soundly that night.

Perhaps thanks to the jinchuang medicine and the medicinal herbs that Xiao Liulang bought back. When she got up, she felt that her wound was completely painless.

However, she found a few drops of dried blood on the pillow.

"Yi? Whose blood is this?"

Xiao Liulang had been up and was currently lighting up a fire in the stove.

Gu Jiao also walked to the kitchen after washing up.

Today, the sky was brighter than in winter, and the kitchen was no longer dark and gloomy, so Gu Jiao could see Xiao Liulang's face clearly.

She stared at him for a long time, then blinked her eyes and asked, "Did you not sleep well last night?"

Xiao Liulang, with two huge dark circles under his eyes, replied, "I stayed up late last night studying."

"Oh." Gu Jiao went to bed early, so it was impossible for her to find out what time he finished studying.

Having thought of something, Gu Jiao asked, "By the way, are you hurt? There is blood on the pillow."

Xiao Liulang said firmly, "It's not my blood."

Gu Jiao was puzzled, "Then was that mine? My wound has already healed though."

Xiao Liulang gave her a deep look, and said solemnly, "You suffered from excessive internal heat, and your nose bled. I saw it."

Gu Jiao remained bewildered, "I drank chameleon plant tea every day, how can I suffer from excessive internal heat?"

Xiao Liulang said in a deadpan face, "Who knows?"

Xiao Liulang's expression was so serious that it was hard to doubt his words. Gu Jiao, holding her nose, went to the main room and drank a big bowl of chameleon plant tea.

After drinking a large amount, she wouldn’t likely suffer from it again, right!

Xiao Liulang guiltily closed his eyes, breaking out in a cold sweat.

At breakfast, Xiao Liulang suddenly remembered one thing. He said, "I forgot to mention yesterday, I found a primary school in town. Today, I can take Jing Kong there to attend school."

Little Jing Kong who was suddenly being sent to school: "...?!”

"So suddenly?" Gu Jiao handed the elderly woman and Little Jing Kong a bowl of sweet potato porridge each.

Little Jing Kong ate the sweet potato porridge while watching his bad brother-in-law warily.

......He felt that this was his bad brother-in-law’s plot!

"I forgot to say it yesterday." He was stirred up as soon as he got home so he really forgot about it.

Xiao Liulang went on to say, "When children from large families turn five years old, their families will invite teachers to teach them at home, and when they turn six or seven years old, when they can read a thousand words, they will be sent to a clan school or private school. Although he is a little younger, he is very smart and has taken lessons in the temple, so there shouldn’t be a big problem."

This was the first time he was praised by his bad brother-in-law for being smart, making Little Jing Kong more and more vigilant.

This was a plot, absolutely a plot!
