My name is Chang An, your name is Gu Li

Chapter 137 Gu Niang is here to live a good life

Back in the house, Gu Li also handed the medicine sent by Qi Wang Li Fan to Zhen'er. As usual, Chang An put the book box next to the desk first, and then took Gu Li in his arms.

"Chang Lang?" Gu Li nestled in Chang An's arms and called softly.

"Hmm?" Chang An responded while rubbing Gu Li's face and smelling the faint fragrance on her body.

"Why does King Qi often send medicine to me? If you want to make friends with Chang Lang, shouldn't you send things to Chang Lang? Why do you send things to me?" Gu Li asked.

Chang An chuckled. Although Gu Li was just spoiled by him and acted like a little girl in front of him, she was not stupid. Moreover, she was now a countess and had some understanding of these political intrigues.

"It is precisely because King Qi wants to make friends with me that he sent medicine to Gu Niang." Chang An explained.

Gu Li went back and nudged Chang An, and asked in confusion, "Why?"

"Does Gu Niang know the saying, 'Please give him what he likes?'" Chang An asked back with a smile, "Who in Chang'an doesn't know my personality?"

"I have no shortage of gold, silver and treasures. No one dares to give me three wives and four concubines. I get all the food and drink myself. So what else can be 'good' about me?"

Gu Li thought about it seriously for a moment, and then said as if he had suddenly realized something: "If they want to really make friends with Chang Lang, they have to please him. Chang Lang's 'good' is me. To please Chang Lang is to please me."

Chang An saw that Gu Li reacted after he nodded, and said with a smile: "That's right, my mother Gu is really smart."

"Hehe..." Gu Li couldn't help but giggle when he was praised.

"Mother Gu is so smart, I'll give you a reward!"

Chang An smiled wickedly, lifted Gu Li's chin, kissed her lips, and made her crazy.

Soon Huaiqin and Zhen'er knocked on the door, reminding the two that it was time for lunch. Chang'an was still reluctant to take Gu Li out of his arms, so he simply carried her outside the pavilion in a princess hug and placed her on a stool.

As for Huaiqin and Zhen'er, they arranged the table with a normal look, after all, it was not the first time they had seen such a thing. As usual, Chang'an and Gu Li first looked at the food on the table, trying to find out if there was anything the other person liked, so that they could take the first chopstick and put it in his (her) bowl.

When they started eating, Chang An suddenly realized that Gu Li ate everything today, but there was only one dish he didn't touch - pork with dogwood sauce.

Gu Li usually eats this, why doesn’t he eat it today?

Chang An was a little confused, so he pointed at the dogwood marinated meat with his chopsticks and asked, "Mother Gu, why don't you eat that?"

Gu Li looked in the direction he pointed, shook his head and said, "I can't eat this."

"Why can't I eat it?" Chang An became even more confused.

"No means no..." Gu Li answered vaguely and continued eating.

Chang An didn't ask any more questions, just one word: spoil! Spoil him well, anyway, he is so well-behaved and clingy, no matter how much you spoil him, he won't become bad.

At night, Gu Li took a bath and went to bed early, combing his long hair with his hands. Chang An was also confused at this time. Normally, shouldn't Gu Li open his arms and throw himself into his arms? Why did he go to bed early today? Confused, he came to the bedside and sat on the edge of the bed.

What he didn't expect was that as soon as he sat down, Gu Li shrank back inside again.

"What's wrong, Madam Gu?"

Although Gu Li had gone to bed like this before, his behavior today really made him confused?

"No...it's nothing..." Gu Li shook his head, then gave Chang An a very forced smile, pretending that nothing was wrong.

But Chang An didn't say anything, he took her and the quilt into his arms, then kissed her gently on the face and asked, "What's wrong? Did someone bully Gu Niang while I was away?"

"No, no one bullies me..."

Although she was held in Chang'an's arms, she kept trying to move out. She finally moved out of Chang'an's arms with great effort, and then pulled the quilt over her abdomen.

Chang An was even more confused when he saw this, but he did not show it excessively. Instead, he pretended to be relaxed and got on the bed. He lifted Gu Li's chin teasingly and said with a smile: "Then can Chang Lang bully Gu Niang for a bit?"

But Gu Li did not accept his teasing, but pulled his hand away from himself, turned his head away, and said: "Chang Lang, don't do this, I'm dirty..."

"Where is it dirty? Didn't Gu Niang just take a bath?"

"Dirty..." Gu Li shrank back again, as if afraid that Chang An would come closer again, "During this period of time, Chang Lang should not hug me..."

"But it won't take long. Don't feel bad, Changlang. I can compensate you after some time."

As if afraid that Chang An would be unhappy, Gu Li added another sentence.

Chang An frowned slightly at this time, thought for a while, then raised his eyebrows, as if he understood the meaning of Gu Li's words, and then suddenly smiled.

Seeing Chang An laughing for no apparent reason, Gu Li couldn't help but feel a little nervous, so he asked tentatively: "Chang Lang?"

"What's wrong?" Chang An raised his eyes and responded.

"Can Chang Lang accept what I just said?" Gu Li's face seemed a little red.

"Yes, absolutely." Chang An smiled, and then sat next to Gu Li, and then pulled the quilt over himself, "It's no big deal, there is no woman in the world who has not experienced this, Gu Niang, don't be shy."

"Chang Lang... I don't know." Although Chang An's words seemed very clear, Gu Li still felt that he didn't know.

"I know. It's just a few days. Can't I just wait a little longer? Anyway, Gu Li said he would give it back to me. I'm not in a hurry." Chang An said with a smile.

Gu Li was stunned for a moment, and said with some intention of arguing: "But...but I am..."

"It's menstruation." Seeing that Gu Li still didn't believe it, Chang An interrupted her and continued.

"what!"

Gu Li screamed at this moment, and suddenly became shy, with her hands twisted together - such a private matter could actually be seen through by Chang An.

But just when she was at a loss, a hand was suddenly placed on her head. She looked up in panic, but happened to meet Chang An's eyes full of tenderness.

"I know what this means, Gu Niang, don't be afraid." Chang An comforted her, "I also said that there is no woman in the world who will not experience this kind of thing, even Her Majesty the Queen, who is the mother of the country, is not immune."

In this feudal era, such things were very private to women and could not be mentioned. Many times, due to the influence of this kind of thinking, they would think that this was a manifestation of filthiness. If a man talked about this matter, it would be considered disrespectful; and if a woman talked about it carelessly, she might be labeled as unfaithful and unclean.

"What's more, when something like this happens, it means that the girl has started to grow up and become a young lady. It's a sign of growing up, and it's not a bad thing."

"My mother Gu is already an older daughter-in-law. She might even become a mother in the near future. This is a good thing."

Listening to what Chang An said, Gu Li was still a little embarrassed, and his voice was like a mosquito humming: "Chang Lang, don't say anything more. Anyway, you know that I am dirty."

Chang An pulled her hand away with amusement and said, "It's not dirty. It's not a dirty thing. Or is it that Chang Lang dotes on Gu Niang too much and spoils her badly? Why doesn't she even listen to Chang Lang's words now?"

"Then I won't pamper Gu Niang next time?"

"No!" Gu Li grabbed Chang An's hand and said, "I believe it! I'm not spoiled."

Chang An laughed again, smacked Gu Li's cheek, and said, "That's it, isn't it? You can talk to Chang Lang about this kind of thing in the future without worrying about it. We are husband and wife, and we are a family. You should tell me even if you don't tell others."

"I have been paying attention to Gu Niang. Gu Niang is really something. She made your Chang Lang worry for the whole afternoon."

When Gu Li heard that Chang An had been observing him for the entire afternoon, he was immediately moved and ashamed, and apologized, "I was wrong. I made Chang Lang worry about me..."

"Mother Gu is right, Chang Lang understands." Chang An stroked her hair, kissed her on the forehead, and said, "Mother Gu, just rest assured during this period. Tomorrow is a day off, I will prepare something for you to eat and drink, okay?"

Gu Li nodded, then touched his hair with his little hand, then touched Chang An's hair, and said, "The hair is dry, Chang Lang, let's take a rest?"

"Okay," Chang An got up from the bed, then went out to blow out the candles in the room.

The next day, when Gu Li woke up, she habitually touched her pillow, but she felt nothing. After opening her eyes, she found that Chang An was no longer beside her. She sat up slowly, just in time to hear the sound of the door being pushed open.

She leaned over and saw Chang An walking towards her with a basin of water.

"Mother Gu, are you awake?" Chang An saw Gu Li sitting beside the bed and asked with a smile.

"Um......"

Chang An put the basin away, then went to the clothes rack to get Gu Li's clothes, walked to the bed, and said, "Mother Gu, change your clothes first, and come with me to the kitchen later."

When Gu Li heard that they had to go to the kitchen, he remembered what Chang An said last night about making new delicious food and drinks for him, so he became energetic and got out of bed and changed his clothes.

When washing her face, Gu Li suddenly felt that the water temperature was a little strange, as if it was warm. She was stunned for a moment, then secretly glanced at Chang An who was sitting at the low table and stretching lazily, and smiled softly.
