Chapter 35: , puppy

When Gu Miru heard the main system's judgment and reward points, she closed her eyes and placed her head on Si Xianchun's head.

There was a lot of people outside, even if all the sedan chairs and the people carrying the sedan chairs had left, there were still a lot of people talking about this on the street for a while.

Their carriage was parked on the corner, but no sound could come in, and it didn't matter. At this moment, there is no distance between the two people, no matter the time or the heart.

This embrace seems to have nothing to do with love, but it is just that they think it has nothing to do.

The two did not return to Xinyang Town immediately, Gu Miru found a place to take Si Xianchun to recover, and also brought him to eat.

After the two had eaten, they went to look outside Prince Ning's mansion. The wedding was held as scheduled, Gu Miru inquired about it, and the bride had already woken up.

They went to Xunzhou City for a stroll. Si Xianchun was still reluctant to take off the veil in this place, and Gu Miru did not force it. After all, the veil can block the sun, and Si Xianchun was not suitable for seeing the light. .

The places where the two of them visited were carpenter's shops, and some carpenter's shops also had jade articles in them. Anyway, they looked fresh.

Si Xianchun was not in the state at first, and he was fascinated by wandering around.

Gu Miru followed him every step of the way. Although the two did not hold hands in the street, they were close to each other.

Gu Miru seemed to be getting better after so many days of awkwardness. She found that getting close to Si Xianchun had become her habit at some point.

It is always very comfortable to be with Si Xianchun, but it is more uncomfortable to ignore Si Xianchun on purpose.

In the evening, the two found another place to eat in the city, found a place to live, and went outside the palace with a carriage.

This time Gu Miru and Si Xianchun bought a gift, the wedding is over, and now there are only a few servants at the gate of the palace who are still packing their things at night.

Gu Miru helped Si Xianchun to get off the carriage, and this time Si Xianchun took the initiative to take off the curtain at the door.

He glanced at Gu Miru, Gu Miru smiled at him, Si Xianchun seemed to have infinite courage.

He stepped forward and asked a servant in a warm voice, "We are here to send congratulations. Excuse me, can I ask to see Princess Ning?"

Si Xianchun gave the servant the time to see his reaction, and then asked again, "Please help me and let me know. It's just that Prince Ning's brother is asking to see him."

With a broom in his hand, the servant first said "Ah?" and then "Ah!".

Then he said, "This young master wait a moment!"

Then he threw the broom and ran into the deep mansion of the palace in a hurry.

After a while, someone came out.

Si Xianchun thought that the people who came would still be slaves, and they might be turned away.

But neither he nor Gu Miru expected that it was Si Jingrou who came.

She had changed back to her usual clothes, and when she saw Si Xianchun's nose sour, she plunged her head into her brother's arms.

Cried: "I thought my brother and sister-in-law left!"

There were a few people packing things at the door, and their eyes were on Si Jingrou, Si Xianchun, and Gu Miru who was not far away.

Si Xianchun touched his sister's hair, and Gu Miru said, "Is it convenient for you to go out? If it is convenient, come to the carriage and talk."

Si Jingrou nodded: "Convenient, the lord has already fallen asleep!"

On the wedding night...sleep like this?

It is very strange that the bride can go out on the wedding night. The husband is still asleep, and Si Xianchun feels a little uncomfortable.

Si Jingrou looked like he didn't care much, and even said happily: "Let's find a place to talk, it's alright, no one in this palace restricts me."

Only then did Si Xianchun take his younger sister and walk in the direction of the carriage. The congratulatory gift was handed by Si Jingrou to a cleaning servant to take it in.

Si Jingrou didn't have a single maid who was serving her. There were two older women. Seeing that there was nothing to do, Si Jingrou let them rest.

At this moment, there was only a rough servant hanging in the distance.

He was the son of an old slave whose mother had died. He was extremely taciturn, bowed his head and bowed his body. Even if he was tall, he had no sense of existence.

At this moment, Si Jingrou followed Si Xianchun and the others, and the servant followed behind. Si Xianchun and the others got into the carriage, and the servant sat on the side of the carriage like Zhang Qian, who was driving the car.

The carriage was heading towards the city, and now they could only speak in the inn where they stayed.

They asked for some food, put it in the room, chatted while eating, and asked the two servants to go downstairs to get something to eat for themselves.

Only then did Si Jingrou chatter and talk to Gu Miru and Si Xianchun about getting married.

"I was brought back by Prince Ning himself after I passed out. He asked the doctor to see a doctor and told me not to be afraid. He decides everything. He's actually pretty good!"

"By the way, my dowry father came to me personally and said that he would make it up for me as well, because Prince Ning wanted to report to the official and sued the eldest lady for treating the prostitutes! It is said that the eldest lady fainted."

"But Prince Ning found out about my exchange of things. He asked me if it was my own idea... I... I was told by him that I accidentally said my sister-in-law."

"But he wasn't angry, he said that his sister-in-law was smart and his brother was so lucky!"

This fool, he has only been married for a long time, and he treats Prince Ning as his own.

Gu Miru said: "This incident would not have disturbed the government at first. Your family has such a large family business, and the mistress of the house treats the prostitutes harshly. This matter will not be brought up. This is the case in every family's back house, but the trouble is. , your father will never allow this kind of thing to bring down the Si family's face."

"Even if it wasn't a stone that was turned on the street today, her reputation for being harsh on prostitutes won't escape. She didn't prepare anything of value for you, right? And even if most people know about the matter of changing relatives, she dares to stab it out. ?"

"My sister-in-law is really amazing. When the lord said that he was going to report to the officials, he scared me to death. I was afraid that if I found out, I would be finished!"

"Later, the prince said the same thing. They can't afford to lose someone, and they don't dare to lose this person. If the matter of changing relatives is investigated, the Si family will not be able to get good fruit to eat..."

Si Jingrou said: "Later, my father came to me in person, and gave me a gift list, and sent it to several shops in the city. Brother, we don't have to be afraid of anything in the future."

Si Xianchun smiled and touched Si Jingrou's head, "It's good to be good brother."

"But you came out so late, the lord doesn't care? You..."

"We don't live together, Wang Ye can't do it." Si Jingrou said, "You didn't see that, his legs are broken, he doesn't like people touching him, he has quirks, I listen to my sister-in-law, stay away from him."

Si Xianchun's face changed slightly, Gu Miru's face was indifferent, and she habitually grabbed Si Xianchun's hand and squeezed it.

"Don't worry, as long as Xiaorou doesn't provoke this prince, this prince doesn't seem to be difficult to get along with."

"Yes, he's not bad." Si Jingrou said, "It's just that there are more eccentricities. I have to manage the shop in the future, and I don't have time to get along with him too much. Brother, don't worry, maybe he will take me off anytime soon. already."

Si Xianchun was reluctantly comforted, and Si Jingrou said, "Brother, there are so many shops, I'll give you a few!"

Si Xianchun shook his head: "No need, these shops were snatched from the eldest lady, they won't be easy to take care of, you need to find a few people to help you, I can't help you if you are far away. Sister, throw a couple of them away. Don't overthink things, so that your life can be stable."

Si Jingrou also understood that the eldest lady would definitely not be reconciled, and she would not dare to go too far by letting her go back to two rooms.

The two brothers and sisters were talking, but Gu Miru didn't interrupt. They ate and drank until midnight, and then Si Xianchun and Gu Miru sent the bride back again.

After sending Si Jingrou back, Si Xianchun and Gu Miru returned to the inn.

In the corridor of the inn, Si Xianchun looked at Gu Miru and tried to speak several times, but in the end he pursed his lips and said nothing.

His eyes were a little sticky, and Gu Miru could feel what he wanted to do and say.

But...Si Jingrou is married, and the comfort is over.

Gu Miru should not do any more unnecessary things.

Now that the self-destruction value is only 10%, Si Xianchun basically has no worries and pains, and has found what he likes to do as a career.

Although the career line has only reached one-third of the way, with Si Xianchun's resilience, the career line will soon reach two-thirds.

Gu Miru is about to get sick and jump into the world.

So she lowered her head, didn't look into Si Xianchun's eyes, and said lightly, "Go to bed early."

He turned around and went back to his house.

Going back to the room to wash up and go to bed, Gu Miru lay in bed for a long time and couldn't sleep.

It wasn't too cold outside tonight, the wind was blowing, Gu Miru pushed open the window and smelled the earthy wind when she couldn't sleep.

Gu Miru seemed to be able to see through the pitch-dark night, the fresh vitality of the buds brought by the spring breeze.

A person like Si Xianchun, like the life he will have in the future.

He is so strong, he must be able to live well.

If the redemption mission reaches the advanced level, you can jump into the world, and there is no need to completely clear it to zero percent.

Because everyone has original self-destruction value. The redemption task only needs to ensure that the task object will not self-destruct and destroy the world.

Si Xianchun found his hobby, his body recovered, and he wouldn't blow himself up even for his sister.

Gu Miru closed the window, turned around and was about to go back to the bed, when there was a soft knock on the door.

Gu Miru felt agitated all over. She didn't know whether it was because the temperature difference in the room was too great after closing the window, or she was frightened by the sound of knocking on the door.

She looked to the edge of the door, and through the corridor lights, she could see a tall shadow standing quietly at the door.

Gu Miru didn't move or say anything.

"Tuk tuk tuk..." The knocking on the door continued.

"Tuk tuk tuk..." The voice was very soft, and the shadows reflected on the door were all cautious.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk..." Very persistent.

Gu Miru pretended not to hear, and went to the bed and lay down.

The knocking on the door did not continue.

Gu Miru closed her eyes, slowly rolled into the quilt, and bowed to cover her head.

The knock on the door was gone, but Gu Miru's heart seemed to be still "tuk-tuk-tuk".

Endless.

Gu Miru covered her ears under the quilt, but the knock on the door seemed to come from her heart.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk."

"Dong dong dong..."

Nonstop.

Gu Miru didn't know how long she had been lying like this, and her whole body was sore.

She stood up abruptly, put on her shoes, strode to the door, and yanked it open.

There were few lights in the corridor, and the second child was asleep at this time.

It was quiet everywhere, but Si Xianchun held the quilt and pillow and stood firmly at the door.

For a moment, Gu Miru knocked on the door in her heart like a drum, and she was about to break in.

She opened her mouth and closed it again.

Just looked at Si Xianchun like this.

Si Xianchun said first, "Can I go in and sleep with you? Change places, I can't sleep well."

He didn't know how many times he stood here and repeated it in his mind, and said it very smoothly.

As if for granted.

But he himself knew how uneasy and how scared he was.

He was too afraid of being rejected.

Gu Miru looked at him, saw his light blue eyes in the warm yellow candlelight, flickering with a bottomless unease, and saw his pure white curly hair sticking to the side of his face, gentle and innocent.

But he was stubborn.

It seems that if Gu Miru doesn't open this door today, he will always stand here, quietly standing like a statue, standing until the end of the day.

"Why?" Gu Miru asked.

Why don't you just live your own life like this? What's the use of liking me, I'm just a passerby.

I'm doomed to not stay.

"Isn't it enough for this night?" Si Xianchun pursed his lips, looked at Gu Miru and said, "I will do nothing for this night."

What he meant was that he wouldn't wake Gu Miru up in the middle of the night.

But this sounds like a scumbag saying, I just can't get in.

Gu Miru laughed "pochi" by the contrast.

After laughing, I couldn't hold back my emotions, and my behavior began to be controlled rationally.

Just one night. In my heart, I kept "dudu" and said like a devil: "Promise him, it's just one night, he doesn't do anything he says."

By the time Gu Miru realized what she was doing, she had already climbed into the same bed with Si Xianchun.

The two of them were lying on the bed each covered with a quilt. The quilt was neatly tucked, and there was a Chu River and Han Realm in the middle.

They looked at each other and smiled, then closed their eyes.

Gu Miru thought to herself, just let it be for one night.

They didn't do anything anyway.

But did nothing really happen? When two people who like each other are together, even if they do nothing, they will get pregnant even in the air.

The two of them slept very peacefully that night. The next day, Gu Miru rarely got up early, and didn't wake up until it was bright.

Si Xianchun was looking at her silently, Gu Miru yawned and turned her head to look at her boss Xianchun's eyes, and smiled naturally.

After laughing, Gu Miru quickly stopped laughing, she felt that she shouldn't be like this.

Gu Miru sat up and sat on the bed in a daze, but what if the two of them didn't do this?

Still not talking like before? Who doesn't look at anyone and live like a pair of strangers?

Then if Gu Miru is seriously ill, will she die alone?

How could Si Xianchun let her die alone?

Gu Miru sat there thinking for a while, and then said to the system: [I'm going to be programmed into a serious illness program, the kind that will die in about ten days. 】

[…death in ten days? To be so fast? 】

【right. 】

Gu Miru said: [Si Xianchun is much stronger than we imagined, he can endure even if I don't like him, I see him sigh, so he can't appear in front of me. I behaved a little better. He dared to knock on my door just like last night. What do you think it's good for me to be sick for two or three years? 】

The system sighed and said nothing, and programmed Gu Miru into a serious illness program.

Gu Miru returned to Xinyang Town that day, and fell ill the next day. Moreover, the condition is menacing. In the course of a day, the vomiting is not only accompanied by high fever, but also accompanied by convulsions. The whole person is in a state of coma most of the time.

Si Xianchun and Xu Lancui were all in a panic, but Chen Lao checked Gu Miru's pulse many times, but he didn't find out what was wrong with her at all.

When Gu Miru occasionally woke up in the middle of the night in a daze for a while, she would feel very speechless.

The serious illness program programmed into her by the system is a kind of infectious disease in the future world. Once infected, she will have symptoms like her present.

It only takes three or four days for people to fall out of phase. It is a virus that spreads in the air in the future world. In the end, all internal organs fail and die.

The death phase meeting is very ugly. On the fifth or sixth day, he began to vomit blood. He couldn't get out of bed and was severely dizzy. He even spit out his internal organs...

This kind of disease is definitely not an infectious disease in this world, but this kind of disease is very tormenting. Although Gu Miru is not afraid of pain, this time she really scolded the system.

The system is still very innocent: [Didn't I want you to die a little ugly, so that Si Xianchun has no nostalgia for you? 】

[But now in my opinion, Si Xianchun may die before you die. You have spent the past three days in a coma, and Si Xianchun has not slept for three whole days. 】

[Has the self-destruction value increased? 】Gu Miru asked.

[No, he's just thinner than you. If the self-destruction value doesn't go up because of your death, it can be considered as completing the task. 】

Gu Miru was silent again. When she started vomiting blood, she was awake for a while and felt that Si Xianchun was waiting for her.

Wiping the corners of Gu Miru's mouth with a towel, her whole body trembled and she looked extremely frightened.

Gu Miru was really afraid that he would collapse suddenly, and there was really no way for the system to temporarily withdraw the serious illness programmed into the body.

Then, when Si Xianchun was away, Gu Miru talked to Chen Lao alone.

She insisted that her disease was a genetic disease, and told Chen Lao to diagnose her with tuberculosis.

Tuberculosis will eventually cough up blood and die, and the symptoms are reasonable, but it will take a little longer.

Chen Lao eats Gu Miru and lives with Gu Miru. These days, he is trying his best to help Gu Miru. Hearing Gu Miru saying that she is no longer saved, Chen Lao feels very uncomfortable.

"It's not necessarily that it's not saved. Master Si said that he will save you by doing everything he can. He is so fond of you that he will never abandon you."

"My whole body will eventually collapse and die from this kind of disease. It won't be long before there is no cure. My family is all dying like this."

"Chen Lao doesn't have to be sad for me, as for my husband, he will figure it out soon."

Gu Miru said: "Old Chen, don't worry, my husband's body has been in need of conditioning, you have been living here, my husband is kinder than me, he will never drive you away."

Then Si Xianchun got news that Gu Miru had tuberculosis.

Moreover, Gu Miru also set a time limit for the news. Chen Lao told Si Xianchun: "Your wife will not live for two months. What should you eat and drink in these two months? Don't be stingy. Say it well."

After Si Xianchun heard the news, his whole body withered in that instant.

He has been able to walk on his own for a long time, but at that time he swayed and fell to the ground.

Cuilian and Chen Lao helped him up, and Gu Miru had already heard it from inside. She closed her eyes and didn't make a sound.

Gu Miru thought that Si Xianchun would give up this time, and Chen Lao's medical skills, few of the nearby towns could match him.

He concluded that he would die, and his conviction was very strong.

Gu Miru thought about spending the past two months with Si Xianchun for a while to give him some mental preparation.

Otherwise, I am really afraid that Si Xianchun will die before she can die, as the system says.

Si Xianchun and Gu Mi were as strong as they imagined. Although he fell to the ground the day he got the news, that situation has never happened since then.

Si Xianchun seemed to be the same as when Gu Miru confessed, but after a brief panic, he regained his composure.

However, instead of resigned to fate as Gu Miru imagined, he stopped studying carpentry and asked for leave from his master.

Let Zhang Qian take him on a carriage and search for medicine for Gu Miru everywhere.

He ran outside for a day during the day, came back at night to take care of Gu Miru himself, gave Gu Miru decoction, and then carved something in the middle of the night.

He has learned to make some big pieces, such as screens. Because Si Xianchun became more and more familiar with his hands and needed money urgently, he often only rested for an hour or two a night.

The carved things are sold in his master's shop. The price of the screens and ornaments sold is very considerable, but it is often not enough for Gu Miru to eat two medicines.

Before Gu Miru asked someone to sell the house, finally there was some news. A family moved from another place and bought the house in one go.

Si Xianchun went through the handover procedures in person, and left all the money he got, leaving part of the rest for Gu Miru to buy medicine.

After trying various prescriptions, Gu Miru was still getting weaker day by day.

The whole room smelled of bitter medicine. While Si Xianchun was taking care of Gu Miru, he really didn't have the energy to go back to his room, so he just hugged the quilt and slept on Gu Miru's feet.

Even at this point, he has always kept his promise.

It was only that night that she slept with Gu Miru.

Usually, no matter what Gu Miru said, he curled up on his feet, which was convenient for taking care of Gu Miru, and never violated what he said that night.

He really does nothing.

But he has done everything, and he is determined not to give up Gu Miru.

When Gu Miru had half a month left to live, Si Xianchun secretly went back to Si's house behind her back.

That's where Si Xianchun's nightmare began.

Si Xianchun originally thought that he would never go back in this lifetime.

But he has no money.

He couldn't ask for his sister's dowry, because it was the money for his sister's life to live on.

He wanted to give the shop to Xu Lancui, but Xu Lancui refused to accept it, and gave him a lot of money, but Si Xianchun dared not take it any more.

So he went back to Si's house.

Si Xianchun never thought that one day he would be able to stand upright in Si's house, he never thought that he would have such courage.

But when he thought that the person lying on the hospital bed was Gu Miru, Si Xianchun had infinite courage.

He was not wearing a hood. He just dressed himself up, straightened his chest as Nurse Miru said, and stepped into the main hall of the Si family's house.

He met his father, and the old lady of the Si family, whom he had been afraid of for half his life.

He saw the eldest lady of the Si family who wanted to tear him apart.

He made his request.

"Please, father, give me back my mother's shops."

Si Xianchun stood in the main hall. He wore the clothes that Gu Miru bought for him, and he didn't look like a monster at all. Instead, she looks like an eye-catching fairy.

All the members of the Si family were in the main hall, and none of them could look down on Si Xianchun. Even if Si Xianchun was dressed like a dog, he was still scolded by his family.

His elder brother and elder sister, younger brother and younger sister are not stingy to use all kinds of vicious words on him.

The eldest lady scolded him as a wicked obstacle and asked the servants to kneel down on him. Mrs. Si looked at him and said that he humiliated the family.

The head of the Si family didn't say a word, just looked at his son, who was raised in the back house, with sharp eyes.

Si Xianchun listened for a while, and he endured all the vicious words that everyone said.

His shoulders swayed slightly, but he didn't step back.

He is like a mortal who has fallen into hell. The little ghosts on the left and right are devouring his soul. The judge sits in the main hall, and every word is an accusation of his heinous crimes.

But he didn't take a step back.

He can't go back.

"If my father doesn't give me back my mother's shop, I will go to the police," he said. "I want everyone to know that my mother did not die of disease."

"I want everyone to know that the old lady of the Si family once strangled his grandson with her own hands."

Si Xianchun raised his pale eyes, which in Gu Miru's eyes were like the surface of the sea, beautiful and gentle.

But in the eyes of these people, it is just plain white with no emotion. It's the eyes of the monster.

They called monsters for so many years, and Si Xianchun finally made a "monster" today.

His brothers and sisters came forward to fight him, Si Xianchun stood there motionless, just looked at his father coldly and said, "I will make all your abuse of me public, bit by bit."

In the end, Si Xianchun won.

Because the Si family can't afford to lose, because Si Jingrou's affairs are ahead, and there is another scandal, the impact on business cannot be predicted. Some people are staring at the Si family's family business, hoping that something will happen to the Si family.

Si Xianchun was scratched with two bloodstains on his face. Holding a thick silver note and the store contract in his hand, he walked out of the gate of Si's house, and only after turning a corner, his knees softened and he supported the wall. Barely stopped.

He was terrified.

What he was afraid of was not even how badly the little ghosts in this "Yan Luo Underworld" would hurt him.

What he was afraid of was that he would not be able to pay for his "grievances".

He took the money back to Xinyang Town, and he piled the money and the land deed in front of Gu Miru's bed.

He knelt on Gu Miru's feet and asked her, "Is this money enough to save your life?"

Gu Miru had just received the news from the system in her head and achieved the ultimate redemption mission.

Si Xianchun has overcome all his fears.

He can stand upright in the world now, and nothing can stop him.

But Gu Miru looked at the money and Si Xianchun's shaking hands, but couldn't help but burst into tears.

Because Si Xianchun asked her, "Tell me the truth, are you really sick...or are you leaving."

Si Xianchun never asked where Gu Miru came from, who she was, or how she replaced his original wife.

But he is not a fool, he knows that Gu Miru's illness is too strange.

He asked a lot of doctors, even if it is tuberculosis, it will not die in two months.

Some people have been offering medicines and can live half their lives.

And Si Xianchun always felt that Gu Miru was not human at all. If you are not a human being, how can you get a human disease?

In fact, Si Xianchun didn't really want to believe it. He neither wanted to believe that Gu Miru was ill, nor did he want to believe that Gu Miru was not sick and just wanted to leave.

"Are you leaving?" Si Xianchun's eyes were fixed on Gu Miru, his face still had scars scratched by his brother and sister, even bloodshot and red and swollen.

But those people could only hurt his surface, but could never hurt his soul.

His self-destruct value has dropped to zero percent.

As a whole person, he's asking his wife, "You're not going to want me anymore, are you?"
