Chapter 30: General

As the sun gradually set, Liu Yiner looked at the village path, but could not see the familiar figure. Suddenly, she saw Liu Yang who had just returned home. She pretended not to care and said, "Yang'er, help me take these new shoes I just made to your brother-in-law."

At dinner time, Liu Yang came back. Seeing her sister always looking at her without saying anything, she touched her head inexplicably, and then a "ding" sound came in her head. "Sister, that brother-in-law is drunk and should not come today."

"Okay, I understand. Let's eat quickly." Liu Yin'er ate calmly. It turned out that she was drunk. Should she make a bowl of sobering soup later? Just as she was thinking about it, she heard a loud thunder.

"By the way, Master Zhao seemed to be drunk too. When I came, he was helping my brother-in-law to bed. It's so late, he shouldn't go back." Liu Yang always felt something was not right in his heart, and couldn't help but say it out loud.

"What did you say?" Liu Yiner stood up suddenly. She couldn't eat any more. She hurried out the door without even lighting the lamp. She didn't have time to pay attention to the voices of her father and brother behind her. She only cared about the dark road under her feet. She didn't know how many times she fell and got up again. The short distance in the past seemed to have no end today. It became particularly long at this moment. Her steps became faster and faster with the sound of her heartbeat. Finally, she simply ran without caring about her image.

"Awan, Awan, Awan, Awan..." Liu Yiner called Gu Wan's name in panic. She finally arrived at her door worriedly. With a "creak", she pushed the gate open. Fortunately, the door was not locked.

Liu Yin'er didn't dare to delay. She rushed into the door in two steps. When she saw the situation in front of the bed, her eyes suddenly widened. "What are you doing?"

Ever since Zhao Yunzhong realized his problem, he began to deliberately avoid Gu Wan. After returning home for the holidays, he thought that the distance would make the relationship fade, but he was urged to get married again. He was still in a bad mood, and he was at an age where he couldn't delay any longer, so he didn't think rationally for a while.

After he signed the marriage certificate, he vaguely realized what he had done and knew that things were irreversible. With the idea of ​​getting rid of his regrets, he came to Liujia Village in a daze this morning.

When he saw the person who opened the door, his blood seemed to become fresh in an instant. He thought of it as the last time. With this mood, he took the old wine that Gu Wan loved to drink, and thought that maybe he could say goodbye to the past days honestly.

When he was in high spirits, he looked at the man across from him who was just as frustrated as himself, and couldn't help but blurt out, "Brother Gu, I'm afraid I'm going to get married soon, so remember to come and have a drink at the wedding."

"Then I wish Brother Zhao a happy wedding." After hearing the expected answer, Zhao Yunzhong couldn't help feeling heartbroken for a few seconds. As expected, the person opposite him never cared. Only he had such dirty thoughts.

So the two unhappy people drank several jars of wine while going back and forth. After Liu Yang came twice, they realized that it was dark. Gu Wan forgot to be shy in his daze and kept his usual habit of wanting to sleep when drunk.

Zhao Yunzhong was just a little tipsy and probably knew what time it was outside. It should be okay for two men to sleep in the same bed. With this thought, he helped Gu Wan to the bed with his heart pounding. It must be uncomfortable to sleep with clothes on, he suggested to himself eagerly, looking for excuses for his desire.

The white neck was exposed, and with trembling hands, he took off the outer robe. Under the somewhat messy inner shirt was Gu Wan's thick chest wrap. Zhao Yunzhong's mind was flashing with lightning and thunder. He shook his dizzy head vigorously and rubbed his eyes vigorously. He reached out to confirm in disbelief, and suddenly a loud shout came from behind him: "What are you doing?"

He was suddenly startled and paused subconsciously. He turned around and saw the annoying girl in front of him. She stood in front of the bed like she was protecting food, blocking his view as he was trying to verify something.

Liu Yiner took a quick look at Gu Wan's clothes, and her heart finally relaxed a little. She quickly pulled the quilt open and covered the whole person. She came to her senses and said, "I didn't expect you to be able to do such a thing. I really overestimated you in the past."

Zhao Yunzhong came back to his senses and watched her actions, with a light flickering in his eyes. Wasn't that an illusion just now? "Oh, what did I do? I was just taking care of Brother Gu to sleep. But you, why are you making such a fuss?"

"Mr. Zhao, I respect you as a scholar, but you shouldn't go too far. I think you should know best what you are thinking about my husband." Liu Yiner was angry. This troublesome guy brought trouble back home after just a few days of not being with her.

"You... I don't bother to argue with a little girl like you. I advise you not to push your luck." Zhao Yunzhong was so angry that he felt that this woman was being unreasonable.

Liu Yiner looked at the man who was arguing in front of her, raised her eyebrows in amusement, and her words became more and more sharp. "It turns out that I am pushing it too far. Then I wonder why Mr. Zhao is still in my house so late at night? Are you going to stay overnight? No matter what your reason is, you are not welcome here. Goodbye, I won't see you off."

Zhao Yunzhong was furious, his lips trembling but he couldn't speak. He pointed at the hateful woman in front of him angrily, flicked his sleeves, turned around and left under the moonlight. It was a pity that there was no one on the road in the long night, and he didn't know where to find a place to stay.

Watching the person in front of her leave, Liu Yiner followed him into the yard and carefully closed the gate, then closed the door of the room. Looking at the person who was already fast asleep on the bed, the armor she had been holding up was removed in an instant. She felt so stuffy in her heart that she felt like she could hardly breathe. She wanted to cry but no tears came. Her nose was sore that she couldn't help but throw herself in front of the bed and sob. She wanted to cry out loud, but her eyes were dry.

The person on the bed seemed to sense the sad atmosphere. Gu Wan could vaguely hear the sound of a woman crying. He wanted to open his eyes but was too annoyed to reach out and wave away the sound.

Liu Yiner looked at Gu Wan waving her hands wildly, and a cold wind blew through her heart. This woman who was unwilling to sleep with her, this woman who kowtowed to her three times and nine times while holding her body, this woman who gave her hope but also made her nervous, where should they go in the future?

She leaned against Gu Wan through the quilt, and her hands and feet gradually felt cold. She curled up helplessly but didn't want to move at all. Liu Yin'er almost masochistically allowed her body to go cold. The heat source behind her was only separated by a layer of quilt, which was within reach yet out of reach.

The next day, Gu Wan woke up and looked at his wife exposed outside the quilt. He touched her forehead worriedly, smiled slightly, and carefully moved her into the quilt. He looked at the sunlight outside the window and did not get up immediately. She was careful not to wake up the person in her arms, and she hugged the cold little lady with her warm body with heartache.

She didn't know when her wife came back. She only remembered that she was a little drunk and went back to bed. It seemed that Brother Zhao had brought her wife back. Sure enough, her Yin'er was still worried about her.

Liu Yin'er woke up when Gu Wan touched her, but she didn't move, as if the confrontation last night had drained all her strength. As the person behind her carefully covered her with a blanket and then held her in his arms, with his warm body pressed against her frozen and unconscious body, she felt as if a huge stone was placed on her heart, making her overwhelmed.

She didn't know when her body became warm in a trance, and she fell asleep with a dizzy head. When Liu Yiner woke up again, it was already noon. The prepared food was warming up in the kitchen, but she didn't see that person anywhere.

She ate some rice in a dull manner and then sat in front of the window in a daze, wondering where her husband had gone. However, she felt unprecedentedly tired, unable to stand up or move.

After making breakfast, Gu Wan looked at the young lady who was still sleeping soundly, and she quietly went out. Last night, she not only drank all the wine that Brother Zhao brought, but also drank the two jars that she had specially left at home.

So after breakfast, Gu Wan went to get some wine. Now that her wife was back, her mood improved and her steps became lighter. It was almost noon when she came back. She pushed open the door and saw her wife sitting in a daze by the window. She raised the corners of her mouth and said happily in the yard, "Yin'er, I'm back."

When she walked into the room, the person who was still in a daze ignored her. Gu Wan didn't care either. She just talked to herself excitedly, "I got two pots of wine. It's just the two of us today. Let's make some small dishes and have a few drinks in the evening."

"I don't know why Brother Zhao came here yesterday. Later, I was drunk. Was it him who asked you to come back to take care of me? Yin'er? Did you hear me? Why are you still angry with me?" Gu Wan approached the young lady and shook her arm, hoping that the beauty would respond. She did, but it was not the response she expected.

Liu Yin'er was in a daze. When she saw Gu Wan walk into the yard, she first saw the wine jug in her hand. A very pleasant voice chattered in her ears, hitting her nerves in her absent-minded mind. Her arm was shaken slightly. Liu Yin'er frowned, finally sat up straight, turned her head, and sighed deeply. "Ah Wan, you know, I hate the way you drink the most."

She had an expressionless face as if she was talking about something irrelevant, and her eyes were unfocused as she looked at Gu Wan, as if she didn't care about Gu Wan's reaction to these words. She went on to say, "It turns out I didn't know that you were someone who couldn't live without alcohol. If I had known this, I shouldn't have..." The words in her throat paused, probably because the person in front of her looked too panicked. In the end, she sighed and couldn't bear to say it out loud.
