On this day, two maidservants whispered from a corner of Gu's house.

One person said mysteriously: "Have you heard? The third young master and the third young lady have not had sex for more than half a year."

"Really, more than half a year? Is it that long?" The other person was startled at first, and then said, "But, but this is the affair of the third young master and his wife. Where did you know it? Could it be fake?"

The maid raised her eyebrows, as if she was very dissatisfied when she was questioned: "Can this be true? I heard from Mama Gao who was boiling water in the kitchen. Ever since the third young lady gave birth to Miss Xi, their courtyard has never had water in the middle of the night. Whenever this couple has had intercourse, why don't they not want to wash with water? Doesn't this just mean that the third young master and the third young lady have not had intercourse for more than half a year?"

"Having been in different rooms for more than half a year, everyone said that the third young master and his wife are loving. I think they seem to be in harmony, and I'm afraid they won't be able to live on. You never know when the third young master will take a concubine!"

The other maid was thin and short, with a hesitant look on her face: "How can it be so serious? Didn't the third young lady lose her health when she gave birth to Miss Xi? The third young master is sympathetic to his wife, and it is normal not to have intercourse with her temporarily."

The tall servant girl snorted softly through her nose: "How is it normal? Look at the third young lady's complexion is ruddy. Even if she loses her body, she should have recovered by now. How can it take so long to separate rooms? Look at the second young master. At the time, the second young lady was only confinement on her front feet, and he moved back to sleep on her back feet. This is a normal couple."

The thin and short maid said: "The affairs in this house have always been dominated by men. As long as the third young master wants it, the third young lady cannot refuse. According to you, does it mean that the third young master has rejected the third young lady? But they were so loving back then. The third young lady was pregnant, and the third young master refused to accept the house. Now that his wife has worked so hard to give birth to a daughter for him, he has changed his mind, right?"

"It doesn't matter if you change your mind. After all, the third young master is on duty every morning and every evening. When he returns home, he will either bring Miss Xi or accompany the third young lady. He will never be shaken. He never fools around or flirts outside."

Another maid was puzzled: "Since it's not a change of heart, why did the third young master dislike the third young lady for no reason?"

The tall servant girl looked around vigilantly, leaned closer and lowered her voice, "It is said that the third young master broke into the delivery room on the day the third young lady had a difficult delivery, and saw his wife's appearance during childbirth, which left a serious psychological shadow. After that, the third young master wanted to have sex every time, but once he remembered the scene of that day, he lost interest in an instant."

"The third young lady worked so hard to give birth to Miss Xi for the third young master. The third young master must feel sorry for him. But the psychological shadow is not something that can be overcome. Even the fourth young lady, a woman, was so scared that she couldn't sleep for several days. The third young master must be more serious than her."

"Besides having sex right now, he can still talk and laugh with the third young lady and live with the third young lady. He treats her meticulously, which is already the result of the third young master's excellent cultivation."

"Hey——" the other maid was both surprised and regretful, and sighed quietly, "The third young lady is not yet 20 years old, but her husband is not willing to have sex with her at such a young age, and she has the name of husband and wife but no real husband and wife. Wouldn't she be a widow?"

"Presumptuous! Who gave you the courage to chew your master's tongue behind your back?"

While the two were talking, there was a sudden scolding from the corner of the wall, which made the two maidservants tremble in fright, and then Zheng Xiuyun walked out with an angry face leading Qin Yurong.

Zheng Xiuyun has studied family management with Mrs. Wang for several years, and she has a bit of majesty as a housewife. She said in a deep voice, "It's broad daylight, you two are not on duty, you are hiding here and slacking off, and you dare to talk about the affairs of the master's house at will. Do you still have my Gu family in your eyes? Can you still recognize your identity?"

"If you don't set up rules for you, you will be turned upside down! Someone, drag them down, hit them with [-] boards each, and fine them three months' money!"

The two maids were so frightened that their faces were as white as paper, and they knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Young Madam, please forgive us! We will never dare again! Never dare again..."

Zheng Xiuyun's eyes were filled with anger, and she remained unmoved.After receiving her order, several fat women stepped forward immediately, dragging the two maidservants down without any explanation.

Qin Yurong stood aside without saying a word, quietly watching the elder sister-in-law lose the two maidservants, but she was gloating in her heart.

The same wife who married into the Gu family as a concubine, Xu Shuhua was taller than her, better looking than her, and more talented than her.It's just that I can't compare myself, and even my husband can't compare with others.Gu Yunlin has no big ambitions, he is a libertine who hangs around in the flowers, eating, drinking and having fun on weekdays.

Gu Yunji, on the other hand, is noble in the Hanlin Academy, with a bright future and an upright character.Such a good man is so dedicated that he just guards Xu Shuhua to live alone without even looking at the women next to him, which makes Qin Yurong envious and jealous, and often hates him so much.

It's all right now, Gu Yunji has a psychological shadow, and he doesn't want to have sex with Xu Shuhua.As a wife, if she can't be intimate with her husband, the husband and wife will be divorced after a long time, and Xu Shuhua's good days are coming to an end.

Thinking of this, Qin Yurong couldn't help puffing out her chest and raised her head, her voice couldn't hide the joy and pride: "Sister-in-law, I see this..."

"Second brother and sister, don't talk too much." Zheng Xiuyun interrupted her coldly before she could say anything, "After all, this is a matter between the third brother and the third brother and sister. It's just a matter of speculation. As sisters-in-law, it's better not to talk about it behind your back."

After all, without waiting for Qin Yurong's reaction, Zheng Xiuyun walked away on his own.

-

"...The matter is like this. Although it is uncertain whether it is true or false, it has indeed spread. No matter what, we can't keep you in the dark. We are all women. I understand your difficulties, so I have to remind you anyway."

Inside the house, Zheng Xiuyun carefully told Xu Shuhua the matter in as tactful words as possible.

The two sweeping maids knew about it, and the whole Gu family probably knew about it too.Qin Yurong is also a gossip, so instead of letting Xu Shuhua hear random thoughts from others, it's better for Zheng Xiuyun to take the initiative to tell her and make more plans.

Zheng Xiuyun's eyes showed concern, and she was afraid of putting things too seriously, so she comforted: "Of course, this matter may not be true, so don't worry too much. The third brother is a caring and caring person, and he will do his best for you. Speaking of this, you must know him better than I do. This time... maybe there are other reasons, not as serious as you think, so let's relax."

Xu Shuhua's face turned pale, he swallowed a mouthful of gloom, and forced a smile: "Thank you sister-in-law for telling me, I understand."

It was because she knew Gu Yunji so well that she knew how abnormal it was that he separated from her for half a year this time.After giving birth to Gu Zhaoxi, Gu Yunji treated her meticulously and cared for her in daily life, no different from before, except that he refused to have sex with her.

Before Xu Shuhua couldn't figure out the reason, it was just that Gu Yunji really didn't want her to get pregnant, so he suppressed his desire.

But if it's a psychological shadow... everything makes sense.
