The morning light shone on the snow in the yard. Soon, the sound of people talking and walking could be heard in the yard.
Wei Yang opened her eyes dazedly, and saw a sea of pink. She moved her wrist slightly, and then she realized that her hand was held by someone. Wei Yang turned her head and saw Yan Gui's profile, half leaning over the bed and sleeping soundly.
Wei Yang lowered her gaze to Yan Gui. Did he sleep half-kneeling beside the bed like this all night? She felt touched, but also a little confused.
She was taught from a young age to abide by the rules. Even as spoiled as she was, she knew the differences between men and women, and that a woman's reputation was very important.
It was unreasonable for Yan Gui to stay by her bedside all night.
But she likes it!
Wei Yang lay quietly, moving her fingers slightly, feeling Yan Gui's care in his hands.
Why hasn't he woken up yet
It must be because he didn’t sleep well last night and was tired.
Seeing that the light outside was getting brighter and brighter, Wei Yang gently pulled her fingers out of Yan Gui's hand. As if sensing something strange in her hand, Yan Gui raised his forehead sleepily and looked at Wei Yang: "Awake?"
The voice is low and hoarse, charming.
His hand naturally touched Wei Yang's forehead: "Well, it's not hot anymore. Get up and wash up. I'll ask Youlan to bring you something to eat, okay?"
"Okay." Wei Yang curled up her fingers and waited for Yan Gui to withdraw his hand before slowly getting up. She was still very tired from her illness, so she stood up and tried to put on her shoes, but she fell down headfirst.
Yan Gui, who was waiting on the side, was quick to act. He grabbed her collar and lifted her up, put his arm around her waist, and helped her sit down on the bed.
Wei Yang's eyes fell on the table beside the bed: "Where's my candy? Did you eat it?"
Hearing this, Yan Gui looked over with a burning expression. He pursed his lips and said, "No, you took the medicine last night."
Wei Yang no longer remembered what happened last night. She just looked at the box of candies with half of them missing in confusion and lowered her head in shame. She thought she was too greedy and ate more than half a box!
"I'll ask Youlan to come in and serve you."
"Hmm." Wei Yang felt her body was still soft and did not object.
When Youlan heard the order, she hurriedly led Xiaocao and Konggu in. Xiaocao helped Weiyang into the clean room to wash up, while Youlan made the bed and folded the quilt, and put away the medicine bowls from yesterday. Konggu went to the closet to find clothes and shoes for Weiyang to wear today.
Yan Gui looked at the three maids busy in the house and frowned and asked, "Why are there only three of you? Where are the maids in the mansion?"
Youlan and Xiaocao were stunned, not knowing how to answer.
Konggu stopped, was stunned for a moment, and said softly: "After the general sent the old general away yesterday, Madam Sun asked whether she should wait until the girl was ready to choose, or let you choose. I dare not make the decision, and I am going to wait until the girl is ready today..."
Yan Gui stopped Kong Gu from speaking and said to Xiao Cao who was standing beside him, "Go and call Mother Sun."
Xiaocao turned around and went out. Weiyang got dressed and put on shoes with the help of Konggu and Youlan, leaving Yan Gui with his thoughts floating in front of him as he stared at the half-filled box of candy.
Madam Sun was the eldest maidservant of his mother and also his wet nurse. One of his two sons died in battle with his brother, and the other was injured in the leg in the battle with him and is now a warehouse keeper. After his mother died, his father did not remarry, and Madam Sun was in charge of the backyard. He did not think it was bad before, but after seeing Weiyang's gaudy pink room yesterday, he could not help but feel angry that there was not even a maid in the yard until now.
Xiao Cao led Grandma Sun in hurriedly, followed by two little girls serving her.
The maidservant actually knows how to enjoy life better than her master. Yan Gui couldn't help but sneer.
