Female Master: Why doesn’t my wife love me yet?

Chapter 387 Named Xiao Nian

Wen Shubai caught her in time before she fell to the ground. Looking at her haggard face, his face was full of heartache.

At this moment, he no longer cared about being jealous of her and Lin Xinghe, but let her lean on him and use his body as support.

Gu Qingyuan had not completely lost consciousness yet. She heard Wen Shubai's voice in her ear and tried hard to open her eyes to look at him.

"I am fine."

When he opened his mouth, his voice was incredibly hoarse.

Wen Shubai supported her and brought her back. He was busy serving her food and feeding her. After she ate a little, he helped her to the bed and said to her, "Wife, you should have a good sleep first. I'm here for you."

Gu Qingyuan only felt that his voice was getting farther and farther away, more and more ethereal, so she closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

Hearing her even breathing, Wen Shubai stood in front of the bed and looked at her for a while.

He naturally also received the news of Lin Xinghe's sudden death, and also learned that Lin Xinghe gave birth to a girl, who would be born under his name and raised by him.

Wen Shubai lowered his eyes, cleared the dishes and walked out.

Lin Weiwei learned of her son's death in the palace. She was patrolling the palace at the time. After hearing the news, she immediately went to ask for leave from the empress.

After the empress learned that Lin Xinghe died after giving birth, she was stunned for a moment, and then quickly approved Lin Weiwei's leave, and someone else temporarily took her place.

She didn't even have time to take off her official uniform before she arrived at the Gu family. Wen Shubai, with a sad face, greeted her.

Lin Weiwei asked, "Where is Xinghe?"

Wen Shubai said, "Let me take you there."

Lin Weiwei felt her legs were getting weak, and the closer she got to Lin Xinghe's room, the more uncomfortable she felt.

The entire Gu family had hung white silk, and even the servants in the mansion had changed into mourning clothes.

When Weiwei Lin stepped into Lin Xinghe's room and saw the motionless figure lying on the bed, he immediately cried out, "Xinghe, my son!"

She originally thought that Lin Xinghe would marry into the Gu family as she wished and have Gu Qingyuan's child, and everything would develop in a good direction.

But the person on the bed failed to respond to her as before.

Gu Qingyuan didn’t know how long she had slept. When she covered her head and sat up from the bed, it was already dusk.

Memories slowly returned, and Gu Qingyuan quickly jumped off the bed and came to the yard.

The servants of the Gu family ordered the coffin to be carried in from outside. Gu Qingyuan stood at the door of her room, looking at the square wooden coffin, and felt a pain in her heart.

This was the second time she had personally experienced the departure of someone close to her. The last time was when Dongzhi, who would smile and tease her like an elder whenever he saw her.

Gu Qingyuan adjusted his mood and walked out.

Afterwards, other people who had a good relationship with the Lin family came to visit.

Gu Qingyuan also met Lin Xinghe's sister Lin Yueguang.

General Gu also hurried over from the General's Mansion. She asked in confusion, "Wasn't the child fine before? Why did she die after giving birth?"

Gu Qingyuan pulled the corner of his mouth and explained helplessly: "Originally, I prescribed medicine for him to help him live a little longer, but Xiaofeng, who was beside him, said that he was afraid that the medicine would affect the child, so he only took it occasionally."

The child is safe now, but what about him?

Speaking of children, Gu Qingyuan realized that since she learned of Lin Xinghe's death, she has not yet visited the child he gave birth to.

Then, General Gu walked inside and saw Weiwei Lin.

"Condolences."

After all, no one wants to see such an accident happen.

......

Three days later, Lin Xinghe was buried.

After everything was done, Gu Qingyuan returned home tired.

Only then did she have the energy to visit the child.

The nanny who took care of the child this time was a man named Jiang Yang, who had just given birth to the child less than a year ago.

When Jiang Yang saw Gu Qingyuan coming, he quickly stood up and said, "Greetings, Young Master Gu."

Gu Qingyuan asked him to hand the child to her, and looking at the baby girl who was still sleeping, she couldn't help but hug her tightly.

Just for this child, Lin Xinghe didn't care about her own body at all. She even passed away before she had time to take a look at the child after giving birth.

The baby, who was just a few days old, was incredibly small. When Gu Qingyuan held her, it felt like she was holding air.

Gu Qingyuan ordered: "Don't mention a single word about Lin Xinghe in front of her from now on. Her father is Wen Shubai, do you know?"

Jiang Yang quickly said, "Young Master Gu, I understand."

Such a young child has no memory yet. If she finds out in the future that her father died when she was born, she will probably feel even more sad.

Among her other two children, An An is the oldest and is over two years old this year, while Xi Xi is almost two years old.

Gu Qingyuan thought about it and named the baby girl born to Lin Xinghe Gu Nian.

Nian means missing someone.

Afterwards, Gu Qingyuan issued an order in the mansion that no one was allowed to mention Lin Xinghe in front of Xiao Nian, and she must not let her know that she actually lost her father.

Gu Qingyuan collected all the diaries written by Lin Xinghe and placed them in her room.

She hadn't finished reading yet, but every time she read a letter, her heart ached.

In fact, Wen Shubai didn't have much experience in taking care of children. Even when Xixi was still breastfeeding, she was taken care of by Liushui, who had taken care of two children.

Now that he suddenly has another "daughter", he is a little at a loss.

However, thinking of Gu Qingyuan's instructions, he still raised Xiao Nian as his own child.

Fortunately, Jiang Yang was there, so he didn't completely understand anything. Instead, he often went to visit Xiao Nian.

Xixi, who can already run, often uses her short legs to play with Anan in the yard.

Moreover, she also learned to call "brother".

Wen Shubai was sitting in the yard holding Xiao Nian and basking in the sun. The two little guys saw it and came over.

"This is your sister, Xiao Nian."

The two people called out incoherently: "Little Sister Nian."

Gu Qingyuan came back from outside and couldn't help but smile when she saw such a warm scene.

During this period, the empress was preparing to confer the title of Crown Princess on the Sixth Princess. She followed her into the palace and was also busy.

Seeing Gu Qingyuan coming back, Wen Shubai hurriedly stood up holding the child and said, "Wife, you are back."

"Yes."

After Gu Qingyuan approached him, he found that his legs felt heavy.

When she looked down, she saw her son and daughter hugging her legs, calling her "Mom" sweetly.

"Oh my two little darlings."

Gu Qingyuan picked up one in each hand and pecked each of them on the face, making them cover their faces and laugh.

"You're already so old, and you still want your mother to hold you. Come down quickly."

Xixi made a face and stayed in Gu Qingyuan's arms, refusing to get down.
