Chapter 7: , puppy
Gu Miru had expected that Si Xianchun would definitely get sick, but he didn't expect him to be so seriously ill.
The newly acquired money, after sending the servants in the house, invited the doctor once, and then filled it all with the doctor.
Because Si Xianchun has too many problems.
Cold and hunger have completely hollowed out his body. He needs to heal and heal at the same time. There is also a need for special ointment for frostbite on the body.
The doctor asked for a lot of relatively expensive medicinal materials, which Xinyang Town did not have at all. Gu Miru went out with Zhang Qian and Xu Si, and traveled to several towns to find all the medicinal herbs.
This is also fortunate that there is an old doctor with good medical skills in Xinyang Town, who used to be in the Zhongtai Hospital of the Imperial City.
Because of his very old age, he made mistakes in the palace, helped the wrong empress, and received consecutive sittings. With a lifetime of credit, only one life was exchanged. Returning to old age is lonely and helpless.
Although his medical skills are not bad, but because of his mistakes, no one dared to hire him into their homes. So he could only retire in this remote rural area, and treat some people in the surrounding towns to see a doctor and eat.
The price he received was fairly affordable, and after seeing Si Xianchun's situation, he didn't make a fuss. After all, what kind of situation have you never seen the people who came out of the palace?
He promised that as long as the supply of medicinal materials was available, Si Xianchun's body could definitely be recuperated. Let Si Xianchun restore the health he should have at this age, and it will not affect the future.
Gu Miru put her heart back into her stomach completely. Since she wanted to be redeemed, it would be much more difficult if people were always ill and could not be cured. After all, very few sick people have good temperament.
The house at home was quite big, so Gu Miru simply took the old doctor to live there. Not bad for his mouthful of rice and a stove of charcoal.
Then she arranged for Cuilian to take care of her at home. She herself took a bunch of jewelry, followed Zhang Qian and Xu Si who were looking for medicinal materials, and went to other towns. Get some jewelry.
Jewelry exchanged some money to buy medicinal materials, but this is not a long-term solution. Healing a disease is not something that can be cured in a day or two... It is also difficult for a house to be shot in a short period of time, and it is easy to be robbed by others.
Gu Miru ran around outside for two days. After returning home, he took the original account book over and turned it over.
The key point is to see who the two shops were sold to when two people got married. After reading it, Gu Miru went around the shop for a few more times, and she had a scruple in her heart.
On the eighth day of the first lunar month, Si Xianchun, who had been burning for three days in a drowsy state, finally drank three bowls of soup and medicine, and the high fever subsided.
It is Cuilian who has been taking care of Si Xianchun these days.
However, some things that are close to the body, such as sweating and changing clothes, need to take care of the Mi Tathagata. Si Xianchun was groggy and occasionally woke up at night or in the morning, and Gu Miru took care of everything convenient.
Soft and rotten rice porridge is simmered all day long on the small stove, sometimes with some minced meat, sometimes with some dried vegetables.
Si Xianchun occasionally wakes up and feeds him porridge, and it doesn't matter if he vomits. I vomited and then poured it, as much as I could eat.
After these few days, on the night of the eighth day of the new year, the fever completely subsided. Si Xianchun finally opened his eyes and regained some consciousness.
At that time, he was lying on the bed, covered with a soft quilt, and a dry and soft mattress under him. The quilt was still filled with Mrs. Tang, and it was warm against his waist.
After Si Xianchun opened his eyes, he focused on the top of the bed for a long time, and suddenly thought he was in a dream.
He's been dreaming these days, one after another of beautiful dreams.
When his mother wasn't dead, when he was a child. It's the only ones left of him, when he didn't get a strange illness, when he was doted on by his family.
It was those things over and over again, Si Xianchun was addicted to it and didn't want to wake up.
At this moment, the lights in the house were like beans, and there was a familiar smell of rice porridge.
Si Xianchun slowly turned his eyes from the top of the bed curtain to the side, and then his pupils shrank suddenly. He also subconsciously shrank toward the bed.
Because Gu Miru was sitting on the edge of the bed not far from her, she was holding a brush with her head down, not knowing what she was writing.
Si Xianchun thought that he was still in a dream, but he didn't realize that he and Gu Miru were in the same bed!
Gu Miru heard Si Xianchun wake up and move in the quilt. She didn't turn around or turn her head, but continued to write stroke by stroke on the spread paper.
Gu Mi was writing on paper.
Of course she didn't want to sue anyone, just to scare people. She found out that when the original character got married, there was a shop that was pitted. This one who pits her is still a good friend of the original character.
This relationship is in my memory. It is the cousin of the original character, and it should be a person that the original character really likes. It's just a pity that he is a complete ten scumbag.
Cheat and cheat. Now I have taken that shop, occupying a very good place, and as a result, I only sell some shoddy jade.
Now that shop is the aunt of the original character, that is, the mother-in-law of the second-rate cousin, who is looking after it. Hanging undead... Might as well take it back.
But she definitely couldn't take it back, Gu Miru decided to go to Boss Zhang's wife tomorrow first...
Seeing Gu Miru's presence, Si Xianchun shrank towards the bed and stared nervously at Gu Miru's back. After staring for a while, Gu Miru didn't look back or talk to him, Si Xianchun relaxed again.
He stared at Gu Miru's back in a trance, and felt like he was dreaming.
How can two people get along so peacefully? How could Gu Miru be willing to stay in the same bed with him?
Gu Miru said that he was a monster, a disgusting thing. Saying that he only deserves to live in a kennel... Those hysterical insults are still in my ears.
After Gu Miru finished writing on the paper, she put down the pen and blew on the paper. After the writing on the paper was dry, Gu Miru rolled up the paper.
As soon as Gu Miru moved, Si Xianchun immediately looked like a frightened bird, not only widened his eyes, but also retreated to the back.
He retreated to the bed tightly, and squeezed Mrs. Tang onto the lower back. The cloth covering Mrs. Tang rubbed off and burned directly on his lower back.
Si Xianchun let out a soft "hiss", but didn't dare to move at all because Gu Miru turned around.
Gu Miru glanced at him, then lifted the quilt and put her hand in.
Si Xianchun immediately shrank into a shrimp, thinking that Gu Miru was going to hit him again, but Gu Miru... hugged him.
Si Xianchun's eyes widened, his illness was still not healed, although the high fever had subsided, but now his brain was still like a mess.
Gu Miru hugged Si Xianchun and dragged her in her direction. Si Xianchun struggled subconsciously, and as a result of this struggle, Si Xianchun realized that the chain on his ankle was gone.
This discovery made Si Xianchun froze directly. Fear came first.
It's an indescribable unease.
Although he only carried this chain for a few months, he was like a domesticated bird. After losing the restraint, he would not be able to fly at all. Even afraid of being thrown away.
Because even if he was thrown into that room with air leaks from all sides, he was struggling on the edge of life and death every day. After all, there was someone to feed him.
Every time Gu Miru beat him, she would give him food and some water...
So Si Xianchun's tears welled up again, and he froze there stiffly. He looked at Gu Miru with a look of incomparable horror.
Gu Miru looked down at him, then crossed his waist and dragged Madam Tang out.
The cloth on top was re-wrapped, stuffed back, and placed on his stomach.
Then he reached out to wipe his tears, and said to him in a calm and low voice: "I spent a lot of money on seeing your doctor, and all my jewelry has been sold. You'd better get well soon and go back to Sijiaduo. Get me some money back, you owe me."
Si Xianchun obviously had some Stockholm symptoms. If Gu Miru frightened him and then treated him nicely, taking advantage of his mental illness, he might be able to complete the task soon.
When she finishes her mission and leaves this world, what does Si Xianchun become and what does it have to do with her?
But the patient with Stockholm, once he loses his "abuser", loses his psychological dependence. Mental illness will get worse, maybe without hate, without self-destruction.
But he will still die. Silently, like every supporting role in the three thousand worlds, they died silently and inconspicuously.
Gu Miru didn't want to go that way. She also has absolutely no hobby of being an "abuser".
Every task that Gu Miru took on was done very seriously.
As for why the world collapsed before... In fact, it was because she was too dedicated. Playing an infatuated female supporting role, she will do everything she can to help the male lead reach the pinnacle of life.
Often when she exits at this time, the actor will really fall in love with her, because she has given too much.
When playing the villainous female supporting role, she will really destroy the male and female protagonists, and she will definitely not make any mistakes to deceive her, and the world will naturally collapse.
This time she took on the task of redemption. Since it is redemption, it cannot destroy the personality, but reshape it.
So Gu Miru first used a lie to give Si Xianchun a hope of returning home. Hope out of pain.
And now, set another goal for him.
Let him go back to Si's house and give her the money.
"Look at it?" Gu Miru took out a ledger and showed it in front of Si Xianchun, saying, "This is the money I spent for you, you can find a way to get it back for me."
Si Xianchun's fearful and distracted gaze slowly settled on the ledger.
He doesn't read many books, but he recognizes all the common words.
Seeing the very detailed accounts on it, it even includes the scattered silver taels that bought him underwear and pants...
Little by little he saw the bottom from above, and he thought it was over. Gu Miru turned the page again.
The second page was full of expensive medicinal materials, Gu Miru pointed it out to him, and explained, "These two medicinal materials were bought in Xinyun Town, and these two medicinal materials were bought in Xunzhou City."
Speaking of Xunzhou City, Si Xianchun's eyes flickered.
Gu Miru said, "Yes, I bought it at the Yongtai Pharmacy on the street next to your house."
Si Xianchun's eyes finally turned to Gu Miru's face. Gu Miru brought him back from the broken house. Except for the initial despair, when he was unconscious, he looked at Gu Miru, and even hated her. Later they didn't dare.
This was the first time he took the initiative to look into Gu Miru's eyes. In such a warm and comfortable environment, this should not belong to the peaceful atmosphere between two people.
His light blue eyes, with some doubts, slowly came alive in the beating lights.
He wanted to find the answer to something in her eyes. Like why did she suddenly do this to herself?
Gu Miru looked at him calmly and answered his doubts.
"Remember? After returning to Si's house, ask for more money, and then pay me the money." Gu Miru emphasized this, that is, repeatedly emphasizing with Si Xianchun that he must accomplish this goal.
Because the first step in smashing a person's personality is to deny the other party, and constantly deny the other party.
The first step in reshaping your personality is to affirm the other person.
Gu Miru couldn't inexplicably praise Si Xianchun, so she went another way - let him think that his existence was valuable.
Gu Miru saw that his eyes were straight and his fingers were dangling in front of his eyes, and she asked again, "Do you remember?"
Si Xianchun nodded slowly.
Because Si Xianchun was full of doubts, he didn't think Gu Miru was going to hit him because she stretched out her hand. So he didn't step back this time, just his eyelashes trembled.
After realizing this, the two were stunned.
A moment later, while Si Xianchun was still stunned, Gu Miru quickly diverted his attention.
This kind of benign change can't make him think too much. The less he cares about the change, the faster he will change.
Gu Miru quickly got down and brought something like a vase, walked over to the bed, handed it to Si Xianchun, and said, "You should think about the convenience. I will help you when you are groggy these days. Now You are completely awake, come by yourself."
Gu Miru said, and stuffed the long-necked porcelain vase into Si Xianchun's hands. He lifted his chin towards the waist where he was covering the quilt.
Si Xianchun took it subconsciously and took it in his hand. After a while, he understood what Gu Miru was talking about.
Si Xianchun's frozen, dull and numb nerves seemed to have finally returned to their original positions.
He suddenly raised his head and looked at Gu Miru, his eyes widening.
Gu Miru saw him staring at her motionless, took a slight step forward, and knelt on one knee on the edge of the bed.
Said: "Don't have the strength? Bring it. I'll help you." Then he went to pull the quilt.
But this time Gu Miru failed to pull the quilt up. Because her hand was held down by Si Xianchun in a hurry.
His hands were not strong enough, and the back of his hands had bruised and terrifying frostbite, which made it even worse after applying the medicine. But his fingers are slender, with smooth knuckles, and his nails are rounded and neatly trimmed.
His palms are soft.
