Chapter 24: , puppy
Gu Miru almost laughed.
She just woke up early in the morning, and seeing Si Xianchun like this, she felt a little prank, so she didn't get up immediately. Anyway, it was too late to go to Xu Lancui's place, not so bad.
She looked at Si Xianchun up close to see when he was breathing.
After waiting for a while, Si Xianchun finally couldn't hold back anymore, took a deep breath, lowered his head quickly, and stuffed his head into the quilt.
Gu Miru finally laughed.
"Get up when you wake up, and you're not afraid of suffocating yourself." Gu Miru moved her head back some distance, dug his head out and said, "Did you fall asleep last night?"
"Yeah." Si Xianchun nodded with a frown.
Gu Miru naturally stretched out her hand and pinched his pink ear, exactly the same as the rabbit she raised in a world.
Si Xianchun shrank, and Gu Miru got up, breaking the ambiguity between the two.
Gu Miru got up and put on her clothes, but Si Xianchun was still huddled under the quilt, embarrassed to come out.
"Last night, you were so tossing people. You didn't sleep well all night. I'm so tired now."
Gu Miru sighed and said, "I can't cook this morning. I have to go to the newly opened shop to help."
"Xiaorou should also be awake at this time. Let Cuilian go to the street to buy something to eat."
Gu Miru didn't realize the ambiguity of what she said just now.
Even a simple person like Si Xianchun who doesn't keep secret of world affairs can easily hear the meaning of not being serious.
Therefore, until Gu Miru put on her clothes and went out of the house, Si Xianchun huddled under the quilt and did not come out.
Gu Miru bought a few buns on the street to fill her stomach, and walked into the store while nibbling on them. There was already a long queue in front of the store, and Xu Lancui's shouts were still deafening, and people were full of energy.
But it was indeed a bit busy. Xu Lancui was busy with both hands flying up and down, and when she saw Gu Miru, she immediately said: "Oh my ancestor, you are here! After opening the store for one day, the rest of the time I have to be a hand-luck shopkeeper."
Gu Miru immediately gave an apologetic smile, and threw the buns bought for Xu Lancui at her, and took the knife after entering the store.
Xu Lancui said so, but there was no hint of dissatisfaction on his face. After picking up the buns, he nibbled at them with a smile. He just collected money from the side, and left all the work of cutting and weighing the meat to Gu Miru.
The two of them had been busy until after noon, and the people in front of the stall finally dispersed, the meat on the stall was also sold almost the same, and the big pot of brine had bottomed out.
The two were free to rest in the store, and Xu Lancui had time to ask Gu Miru, "Why are you here so late today, what happened at home?"
Gu Miru rubbed her wrist and replied casually, "There's nothing wrong at home, even if my husband tossed and turned and couldn't sleep last night, and the tossed people couldn't sleep either..."
When Gu Miru said this, it didn't mean anything "cooked", it was just a literal meaning of being tossed and not sleeping well.
As a result, these words were heard in Xu Lancui's ears, Xu Lancui said "ouch", and her hands grew, and she didn't know where to cover it.
"I'm talking about my sister. It's fine if you tell my sister about it, but don't... don't say it to others casually."
As soon as Gu Miru saw Xu Lancui's expression, recalling what she said, she knew that she must have misunderstood.
But what is the explanation for such a thing? She and Si Xianchun are indeed married now, and they will continue to maintain the relationship for a long time.
Before Si Xianchun was completely redeemed and could live independently and form her own family, Gu Miru didn't need to explain to anyone that she and Si Xianchun were only superficial husband and wife.
So Gu Miru just smiled, waved her hand and said to Xu Lancui: "Just kidding, of course, I just said that to Sister Cuicui."
She even told Si Xianchun in the morning... Gu Miru had a headache just thinking about it.
Because she didn't have any sneakiness in her heart, the words she said didn't go through her brain.
In the future, you must be more careful in front of Si Xianchun. Si Xianchun is too easy for others to give him a little favor, so he will hold on to it and never forget it.
The two were chatting in the room, and another person came to the door. Gu Mi thought she was buying meat, so she walked over and asked each other gently, "Cut a fatter one or a thinner one?"
"You want a few people to eat. There is still a little water left. Buy a catty of pork and get half a catty of water. I can give you some more soup for the water. It's delicious to go back and marinate the vegetables."
Gu Miru's words were eloquent, but the man standing across from them didn't say a word.
He had a pair of peach blossom eyes, and the whole person was smiling. Gu Miru looked up at him without saying a word, and saw a look of squinting in his eyes.
Gu Mi glanced back at Xu Lancui subconsciously, but Xu Lancui, who usually rushes up when she encounters something, actually wants to drill into the house with an embarrassed expression.
Gu Miru turned her head in doubt, and the man on the opposite side said a word, and Gu Miru no longer doubted.
"Ru'er, I came back from my business, and I sold a whole boat of silk and made some money." The man reached out to touch Gu Miru's hand, and said in a very ambiguous tone, "We're having a good night tonight. Let's get together, I also left you a set of gauze..."
"Ru'er, I really miss you..."
He grabbed Gu Miru's hand and met Gu Miru's gaze. Although there were wrinkles at the end of his eyes, they were still shining peach eyes, which made Gu Miru a little helpless.
This is again the good n number of the original character.
Gu Miru pulled it out from her memory. The name of this person is Zhu Ting.
It's just that this person doesn't have a family or a career. He was born from a poor son, and he likes to linger among flowers and leaves without touching his body.
She is also generous with her relatives, but there is a small problem that is not very elegant, that is, she likes several good friends to come together.
Gu Miru slowly pulled her hand back, then slashed the pork with the knife in her hand, dazzlingly cut through it, and neatly wrapped it in greased paper.
He picked it up and handed it to Zhu Ting, and said lightly, "Master Zhu, I have already recovered, and now I just want to live a good life with my husband."
As Gu Miru said these words, Yu Guangzhong kept staring at Xu Lancui in the back room, and it was said to Xu Lancui.
When you see her good looks in the future, don't rush up carelessly.
Gu Miru said to the forty-year-old old man standing in front of him, who had the romantic charm of a son of a family, "You take these pork, and you can eat whatever you like, they are all the best meat. , as if it was you and I who got to know each other...the breakup fee."
As soon as Xu Lancui heard Gu Miru's words, she immediately came out of the back room.
Of course, this Zhu Ting and Xu Lancui also knew him. He wasn't a serious person, but he wasn't a **** either.
Compared with her unsatisfactory man and Gu Miru's cousin, this Zhu Ting just didn't have a family and started to play around, but he was a good businessman and had never been poor.
Xu Lancui was not sure about Gu Miru's mind for a while. Now that she heard that she didn't want to be with this person, she immediately came out from inside and gave Gu Miru the sway.
This Zhu Ting has been dazzled with the knife technique since he saw Gu Miru's hand with the knife. Now, looking at the pork handed in front of him, his eyebrows are raised high.
Then he carefully observed Gu Miru again.
He hadn't noticed before that his appearance, figure and even his temperament were excellent.
Zhu Ting glanced at Xu Lancui again, and remembered the rumors that Gu Miru had changed her mind and returned to justice.
I also understood in my heart that this Xiao Xianghao really didn't plan to deal with him, climbed up to Xu Lancui, and got such a prosperous shop... Congliang also took it for granted.
Zhu Ting is not a person who will entangle, his confidantes are everywhere.
Although Gu Miru's current appearance is very much to his taste, she hasn't seen her in just a few months, she is like a fox transformed into a human figure, her brows are sparse and indifferent, but for some reason there is a quiet gentleness in her eyebrows, which makes people addicted.
But now that she has made a decision, Zhu Ting will not do more entanglement.
It's just a pity to say: "Even if it's a breakup fee, it shouldn't be such a greasy piece of meat."
Zhu Ting raised his eyebrows and smiled, and reached out his hand to brush the hair that fell from his shoulders.
He said to Gu Miru, "The gauze that I left for you will still be sent to your house, so it should be counted as the breakup fee for you and me."
After Zhu Ting finished speaking, he didn't take the meat that Gu Miru handed him, smiled brightly at Gu Miru, turned and left gracefully.
Only then did Xu Lancui come forward and said to Gu Miru, "That's right. You will do business with Sister Cuicui in the future, and you won't need money from others at all."
Gu Miru smiled at Xu Lancui and said, "Sister Cuicui said that I originally wanted to move later, but now it seems that I should move earlier."
"Let my husband move in earlier, he can come to help when his body recovers a little bit." Gu Miru said, "These people who don't have long eyes will naturally not come together when they see my husband by my side. It's boring to poke fun at the top."
Xu Lancui smiled happily when she heard the words, "The relationship is good, and there is an extra helper!"
Gu Miru's words were actually a kind of temptation. She was quite afraid that Xu Lancui would dislike Si Xianchun, and that he had a strange disease and would not let him approach the meat-selling desk.
Now it seems that Xu Lancui is indeed a good-hearted person. She does not reject Si Xianchun, so Gu Miru naturally wants to get Si Xianchun here earlier.
Although the place where she lives is not far from here, it takes a while to get up early and return late.
From now on, this shop has to be looked after all day long, and Gu Miru can't always leave things to Xu Lancui alone.
Moreover, Gu Miru asked Si Xianchun to move in, not only because it was relatively close to the review shop.
Gu Miru's biggest and ultimate goal is to let Si Xianchun approach people bravely.
Only by having the courage to contact people can the rumors of those strange diseases be broken.
Gu Miru had already figured out how to break this rumor.
Only when Si Xianchun walks upright on the street can he interact with people normally. He has a good-natured personality, and most people will like him after a little contact with him.
Only when someone likes him and is willing to contact him can he break through the barrier in his heart and truly escape the so-called destiny.
Only when Si Xianchun can live a completely independent life, no longer think about destroying himself anytime and anywhere, and no longer only think about death in the face of sad things, will he be truly successful in redemption.
Therefore, that night, when Gu Miru got home and was eating, she proposed to move.
Si Jingrou hasn't left yet. She discussed with her brother for a day today about the trick Gu Miru gave them last night.
The IQ of two people together is not very good, but Gu Miru's idea is really subtle, so subtle that even a person like Si Jingrou thinks it's a fool, it's really good.
So on this day, the two of them were discussing where to hire those who carry the dowry, and then hire the people who lead the crowd to discuss and speak.
There are old servants left by the two mothers at home that can be used, but they have no money to buy people's hearts. The best thing is to use their own dowries to bribe those people.
When Gu Miru came back in the evening, Si Xianchun and Si Jingrou looked at her with sparkling eyes.
Although Si Jingrou didn't believe what Si Xianchun told her, Gu Miru wanted to buy her a dowry with the money from the house sale.
But Gu Mi was willing to give her such a good idea, in Si Jingrou's opinion, she really likes her brother.
In this way, Si Jingrou can feel completely relieved, leave here to get married, and then plan his own future.
Therefore, the three of them ate a meal that night that was quite enjoyable. When Gu Miru mentioned that she wanted to move as soon as possible, Si Xianchun and Si Jingrou had no objection at all.
Early the next morning, Zhang Qian and Xu Si hired a car to take Si Jingrou back to his home in Zhoucheng.
After Gu Miru was busy for a while in the morning, she started to clean up the house behind with Cuilian. The house was almost cleaned up, and another scooter was hired to toss the shop one by one.
Tossing with great fanfare, and the tossing neighbors is another big talk.
Someone said it was ugly before, and Xu Lancui would not be willing to argue with people with a knife, but after being persuaded by Gu Miru, now no matter what anyone is talking about, Xu Lancui just listens with a smile.
Because Gu Miru told her that no matter what someone talks about, it is hot, and hot is money.
There are not many things in the house, but it is not so simple to arrange it once it is moved.
Zhang Qian and Xu Si sent Si Jingrou back to the Si's house in Xunzhou City, and joined the move after returning.
Rao is so, a group of people also moved for two and a half days, and on the sixth day of the second lunar month, they finally moved everything.
In the end, there was only one Si Xianchun left to move. Gu Miru didn't urge him for the past two days, but just went back to accompany him as early as possible every day.
Si Xianchun was a little anxious to the naked eye. On the night of the sixth day of the second lunar month, the two of them could have gone to their new home tonight.
But because Si Xianchun's mood was a bit wrong, Gu Miru waited patiently for him to bring it up.
This afternoon, people set up new homes, and Gu Miru still came back early to accompany Si Xianchun.
Help him walk around the courtyard.
Everything in the yard was almost moved, and the plum blossoms on the plum tree were completely withered, but when Si Xianchun was approaching the dark sky, he still stood under the tree and watched for a long time.
This is where his good life started anew, and where he fell into **** for months.
Si Xianchun has no nostalgia for this place, but he has a kind of anxiety about changing to a new environment.
He grew up in the back house since he was a child, and he had no contact with a few people at all. Once he moved to the back of the store in the east of the city, he was bound to meet many people who were busy in the store.
Si Xianchun was a little scared. What he was afraid of was not the people themselves, but the fear of those people for him.
He was a man with a strange disease, and all the hair on his body was white.
After suffering from a strange disease, he has been unable to see light. After being exposed to strong light, large erythema will appear on his face, which looks like he is about to bleed.
Even Si Xianchun himself felt terrified by that look.
He was afraid that others would be afraid of him, that others would point at him.
He was afraid that Gu Miru would hear such remarks that strange diseases were contagious, and he was afraid that Gu Miru... would suddenly change back to the way he used to be.
he is afraid...
Gu Miru was standing behind him, quietly waiting for him and accompanying him.
Neither of the two said a word. There was some cold wind blowing in the night. Gu Miru stepped forward and tightened the fox fur cloak on Si Xianchun's body.
Si Xianchun's face was freezing cold, Gu Miru reached out and touched the back of her hand, then said, "Look at this tree again, it's only a bare trunk. It's already spring, and summer is coming soon, you If you like flowers, I will plant a wall for you in the backyard when the weather warms up."
"But I've said it, I just don't want to water it. When you're healthy, you'll have to water it by yourself. When you get seeds in autumn, you can put them away in winter and wait until next spring to plant them again. "
"I see that Sister Cui Cui has collected a lot of flower seeds in her house, and they come in all kinds of colors." Gu Miru said to Si Xianchun: "The flower seeds will be available until tomorrow when I and Sister Cui Cui want them."
Si Xianchun slowly turned his head to look at Gu Miru, the fear and panic in his heart, the unease and the emptiness that had nowhere to tell, were just calmed down by Gu Miru's few words of light assurance.
If Gu Miru said to Si Xianchun, "I will definitely treat you well in the future, you don't have to be afraid of anything."
Instead, Si Xianchun would be afraid.
Because the wife he married before, before he got all his property, and before he personally sent him to hell, also said to him: "I will definitely treat you well in the future, and I will not despise you for having a strange disease. "That kind of thing.
But Gu Miru never said anything like that to Si Xianchun from beginning to end.
She just made it for Si Xianchun little by little, asking him to use his eyes to feel it with his own body and mind.
Let him participate, give him choices, even the lies are so gentle, let him know what is really good.
In spring, summer, autumn and winter, the walls are full of flowers, Si Xianchun just closed his eyes and thought about it, and wanted to cry.
Si Xianchun couldn't hold back the reddening of his eyes.
Gu Miru thought that Si Xianchun was frozen, so she quickly supported his shoulder and said, "Let's go back to the house, if you don't want to move. Then move back, there's no trouble."
Gu Miru doesn't dislike tossing, because the essence of human life is tossing and tossing.
Just as long as you are comfortable. Other people's vision is not so important, unless their vision can be turned into money.
Hearing this, Si Xianchun couldn't help but water mist accumulated in his eyes, he knew that what Gu Miru said was true.
As long as he shook his head, as long as he didn't want to, Gu Miru would give up the plan and accompany him to continue living in this yard.
When Si Xianchun walked to the door of the house, tears still fell.
As soon as Gu Miru saw him cry, she immediately didn't know what to do, and the system in her brain was prompting the task subject's emotions to fluctuate violently.
Gu Miru didn't know how to comfort him for a while, but when she thought that the first few times were close contacts to calm him down, this time she raised her hand and hugged Si Xianchun gently.
As a result, Si Xianchun hugged Gu Miru tightly, buried his head on her shoulder, and cried again.
Si Xianchun liked to cry when he was a child, no children played with him, and all his brothers and sisters bullied him and insulted him.
The only mother who accompanies him always tells him that boys can't cry, can't be self-willed, and have to swallow and endure any suffering.
Gu Miru had never said such a thing to him.
Gu Miru stretched out her hand and patted Si Xianchun's back lightly, then landed on the back of his neck and rubbed it, comforting him silently.
She was silently indulging his weakness, and Si Xianchun felt that in front of her, she seemed to be able to be the child who had never suffered from a strange disease.
At that time, the family loved him very much, because he was extraordinarily cute and Yuxue, and his mother was the woman that his father loved the most. When he fell a somersault, many people came to coax him.
The little clothes he wears during Chinese New Year are the envy of his brothers and sisters.
Si Xianchun always thought that he had forgotten all those things, but now he found out that he had never forgotten those happiness.
He has not forgotten and should not forget what is really good.
Si Xianchun stood in the cold wind, put his head on Gu Miru's shoulder and cried for a while, venting his emotions fiercely, and then raised his head with red eyes.
He indulged his weakness once, but he no longer avoided hiding his weakness. He looked directly into Gu Miru's eyes and said to Gu Miru, "Can you come with me again, in that house?"
"Where?" After Gu Miru asked, she quickly understood.
Then she smiled gently, reaching out to wipe a tear from Si Xianchun's chin.
She sighed and said, "You are really a very strong person."
Gu Miru thought that Si Xianchun would never want to go back to that house for the rest of her life.
And the reason why he didn't want to leave so soon, and the reason why his mood fluctuated, was because he was afraid and dependent on this house.
This is a sickness. Like someone who suffers from Stockholm, dependence on the abuser.
But now Gu Miru found out that she was wrong, Si Xianchun has a bright soul and a strong character.
Although he is like a blank piece of paper, as long as you don't guide him in those bad directions, he will be born to the sun by himself.
Gu Miru reached out to Si Xianchun, and Si Xianchun quickly put his hand on Gu Miru's.
The two held hands, and Si Xianchun's other hand was leaning on a cane, and it didn't fall on the ground very densely, and sometimes only a few steps would fall.
His body really recovered very quickly, and he was still young after all.
When the two walked to the front of the dilapidated house, the sky was going to be completely dark.
Si Xianchun let go of Gu Miru and said to Gu Miru, "I want to go in and have a look myself."
Gu Miru raised her eyebrows again in surprise, and naturally agreed.
Gu Miru knew that Si Xianchun wanted to get rid of that fear and fear by himself, so he could only revisit the old place, fall back into that situation, and then come out bit by bit.
Only in this way can he truly come out of that dark hell.
Si Xianchun walked in slowly with a cane, and Gu Miru was waiting for him outside.
It was completely dark, and there was no sound at all, only the cold wind blew in through the window, and the humming of the wind could be heard outside the door.
Like who whimpered hysterically.
I don't know how long I stood there, Gu Miru's face was a little numb, and Si Xianchun called out, "Can you come in?"
Gu Miru heard the words and walked in from the door of the house. After entering, she got used to the light, only to find that Si Xianchun was sitting on top of the pile of rotten cotton and straw.
But unlike the first time they met, Si Xianchun saw Gu Miru's terrified eyes.
At this moment, Si Xianchun looked at Gu Miru with calm, even expectant eyes.
His eyes were a little gray in the night, but the sparkling water in them made them very bright.
He sat on the pile of rotten cotton and straw, and once again stretched out his hand to Gu Miru.
He said to her, "Take me away."
Get out of here, out of this home that has never been home.
He could not struggle without this, thinking that he would sink into it and die in a rotten hell.
Gu Miru stepped forward, reached out and grabbed Si Xianchun's cold hand.
Like when they first met, Si Xianchun had been in the cold for too long, and his fingers were like ice.
Gu Miru grabbed his hand and tucked it into the waist and abdomen of her cloak, trying to warm his hands, which was also a hug.
The two embraced in the dark, but Si Xianchun didn't cry this time. He lay on Gu Miru's shoulder, bit by bit, pursed his lips and laughed.
No one saw him in the night, but he smiled beautifully.
He's almost recovered now, the flesh on his cheeks doesn't sink in, and he smiles just like his name - like offering a spring full of life and flowers.
