Chapter 16: Chapter 10 Safety for Both Mother and Child_2
“How about that, son, your mother is amazing, right?” an entirely proud and coquettish tone.
“Mhm, mom is the greatest.” Little Meat Bun responded compliantly.
Gu Changsheng was quite pleased, his eyes narrowed to slits, “Right? Let me tell you, I’ve never accidentally killed anyone, even Yama Raja would have to ask my permission if he wants to compete! In this age, if we talk about medical skills, I rank second, and no one dares to claim the first!”
Arrogance was never hidden; strength proved everything!
Little Meat Bun had stars in his eyes…
Truly a bold and talented Lady indeed…
Of course, her claims were big! But she indeed had the confidence, she had managed to save people sentenced to death penalty, ensuring both mother and child were safe!
Everyone unanimously chose to remain silent, admiringly watching that arrogant figure disappear from sight, before they remembered to check on the newly born baby…
After taking a hot bath and holding her son, Little Meat Bun, Gu Changsheng slept exceptionally long.
So long that Young Master Du, who had been waiting outside since before dawn, thought she wouldn’t wake up.
“Gurgling…” Gu Changsheng patted her growling stomach, struggling to climb out of bed. Outside, the sun was high, and her son was no longer on the bed.
She had slept from evening till now without eating a bite!
“Xiao Cui… Han Qiu…” she called out weakly and flopped back onto the bed.
The bedroom door opened promptly, as Xiao Cui and Han Qiu came in with washing utensils, and Little Meat Bun followed Han Mo behind.
“Mom, you really can sleep…” he pouted discontentedly, as no one taught him to study, and Han Mo didn’t speak…
“Stop talking nonsense first, who can rescue my stomach?” she clutched her belly and lay ungracefully on the bed, feeling her intestines nearly knotting, “I’m so hungry…”
“Madam, it’s past noon now, you’ve missed three meals.” Xiao Cui no longer cared about her lack of decorum, as even if she talked her mouth off, Madam would still be the same. She quickly put down the basin, “I asked someone to keep the food warm in the kitchen, thinking you’d want it when you woke up. Wash up first, and I will go get it.”
“Xiao Cui, ah, you really are my little padded coat…” she sighed feebly, thankful that this time travel wasn’t too miserable, at least she still had people to serve her, or else life would have been unbearable…
She already had two maids; were the luxurious mansions and cars of her former splendid days that far away? Not far, fist pump! Comrades must continue the struggle, fighting for a better life!
“Has Lady Changsheng woken up? Lady Changsheng, Chenzhi requests to see you!”
A loud shout came from outside the door, startling Gu Changsheng who was still washing her face. She looked at Han Qiu passing her a brocade handkerchief, “Chenzhi? Who is that even?”
Seeing her master still half-asleep, Han Qiu’s mouth twitched, ‘Who is that even?’ Such a question…
“It’s Young Master Du, you met him yesterday.”
Gu Changsheng realized, seemingly having heard Madam Du mention something like Chenzhi before. Abruptly irritated by being woken early, she burst out, “Why are you disturbing so early in the morning, can’t you let a person wake up and eat in peace!”
Han Qiu, Little Meat Bun, and Han Mo: “…”
Clearly, Madam was a bit confused about the time, probably catching only the last part of what Xiao Cui had just said…
Chenzhi, quivering, watched the teapot-like stance of Lady Changsheng at the doorway, swallowed nervously, and dared to speak, “L…Lady Changsheng, I just came to see… to see if you were awake, to see if you could check on Wanniang…”
Finally managing to speak a complete sentence, Chenzhi wished he could bury his face into his chest, Lady Changsheng’s demeanor was intimidating…
“The Emperor doesn’t starve his troops, and here I’ve just gotten up, and you’re commanding me, can you even afford the consultation fee?”
Han Qiu’s mouth twitched even more, and Little Meat Bun Gu Ze was also terrified, his mother was so imposing…
“I can afford it, I can afford it!” Chenzhi hurriedly replied, nodding vigorously, clearly also missing the context and hearing only the latter part.
“Having money makes you great? Can money interrupt my meal?” Gu Changsheng stepped forward, seeing Xiao Cui leading a maid carrying a food box. To a hungry person, food was the perfect lover, and her perfect lover was beckoning seductively…
“Step aside, and let me eat my fill before you bother me with anything.” She brushed past the chubby Chenzhi towards her “lover.”
Gu Changsheng’s meal was inelegant to the extreme.
The surrounding eyes, one, two, three… numerous pairs were dumbfounded, unable to look directly.
Really have never seen such an image-ignoring Lady! Du Residence’s servants: “…”
“Lady Changsheng, look, could you, perhaps, check on Wanniang?” Chenzhi asked timidly, watching Gu Changsheng eat lychees, harboring an impression of a not-so-easy-to-talk-to Lady with bad morning temper, quick temper, and yet, very boisterous!
“She survived crossing the Ghost Gate, she won’t die any time soon.” Gu Changsheng nonchalantly spat out a lychee pit, handed a few lychees to Little Meat Bun and Han Mo, blocking the servant who came to help peel them, “If having a boy means spoiling him, needing someone to peel lychees, does that mean someone should help him on his wedding night too?”
Du Residence’s servants: “…”
Little Meat Bun Gu Ze and Han Mo exchanged glances, instinctively feeling they had been ridiculed!
In fact, these two yet-to-grow boys didn’t know that they were not just ridiculed but also deeply scorned!
Chenzhi wiped the sweat off his forehead, thank goodness he hadn’t really acted yesterday at Anping Inn! Otherwise, he really didn’t know what situation awaited him; this Lady was too boisterous, with a boisterousness that was utterly indomitable!
If Xiao Cui and Little Meat Bun knew his thoughts at this moment, they would definitely affirmatively answer him, “Misery! Sheer misery! Utter misery!” There were too many previous examples, too numerous to count!
“I say Young Master Du, even the practice of switching allegiances faster than changing morning and evening doesn’t compare to how quickly your heart changes…” Gu Changsheng started with great interest and laughed mischievously.
