Chapter 1317: I’m That Bunch of Cow Dung

With that, Gu Yundong put all the dishes into the food box and walked out of the kitchen.

However, just as she stepped out, she suddenly stopped. She turned to look at Cui Lan and said in confusion, “By the way, there’s a question I’ve been wanting to ask.”

“What is it?”

Gu Yundong smiled innocently. “Since Doctor Cui knows that I’m married and that my husband’s surname is Shao, why do you keep calling me Miss Gu? If Yu’er hadn’t called me just now, I wouldn’t have noticed. I heard that Doctor Cui’s family is also a big family in the capital. I’ve never been to the capital. I don’t know if the rules there are different from what I know.”

Cui Lan’s expression suddenly froze, and so did the servant girl, Yu’er.

Yu’er was a maid from a rich family, after all. She knew all the twists and turns.

After hearing Gu Yundong’s words, the way she looked at Cui Lan changed.

What did she mean by the rules in the capital were different? There was no one in the capital who called a married woman Miss. They were not her family.

Cui Lan tightened her grip on the rouge ointment, but her voice was still cold and emotionless. “It was a slip of the tongue. I saw that Mrs. Shao was young and in her prime, so I unknowingly called you Miss. I won’t do it again in the future.”

“Doctor Cui, why are you saying that I’m young again? You just said that I need your rouge cream to not become an old woman.”

Cui Lan’s face twitched slightly. Was this woman really stupid or was she pretending to be stupid?

“Women should still take precautions.”

Gu Yundong was enlightened. She nodded. “You’re right.” Then she left.

After leaving, she did not come back.

She and Shao Qingyuan ate dinner happily. Shao Wen and Tong Shuitao’s food were brought to their rooms.

After eating and clearing the dishes, Gu Yundong crossed her arms and stared at Shao Qingyuan from head to toe.

The latter felt an inexplicable chill run down his spine under her gaze. “What’s wrong?”

Gu Yundong snorted. “And you say you’re not a femme fatale.”

“Hmm?”

Gu Yundong narrowed her eyes and said, “That Miss Cui is very indignant on your behalf. You’re outstanding and capable, while I only know how to cook. She thinks that you’re like a fresh flower stuck in cow dung after marrying me. I’m that pile of cow dung.”

Shao Qingyuan frowned. “She said that about you? I’ll look for her.”

Was there something wrong with this Cui girl that made her wife unhappy?

Shao Qingyuan stood up and walked out. Unexpectedly, Gu Yundong suddenly stretched out her leg and pressed it against the door, blocking him. She tilted her head and snorted. “What’s the hurry?”

Shao Qingyuan lowered his head and held her ankle with his right hand. He moved it up her calf and carried her to sit on the bed. He hugged her waist and said, “You’re not cow dung. I am. Without you, I would have been trampled to pieces.”

“Alright, stop talking.” She had just finished her meal and did not want to discuss such a smelly topic.

Even though she was the one who brought up the cow dung first.

“If Miss Cui provokes you, I’ll go to Imperial Physician Cui and explain. Anyway, we don’t have much of a relationship.”

“No need.” Gu Yundong only wanted him to make a statement. She would not really blame Shao Qingyuan.

Not to mention…

“I want to see what Miss Cui wants to do. It’s a good opportunity for me to practice in advance.”

“Practice? What practice?” Shao Qingyuan was puzzled.

Gu Yundong smiled and did not answer.
