When talking about borrowing money, Gu Mingjing gritted his teeth and regretted it. Shushu was right, drinking was harmful to the body, and being drunk would cause trouble.

He was drunk that day and someone named Zhou asked him to borrow money. He couldn't remember who he was, but when he saw that he was wearing a military uniform, he thought he was a comrade-in-arms, so he lent the money without hesitation. After all, this kind of thing happened a lot in daily life.

It happened that I was attending a wedding that day, and Jianshu gave him ten yuan. After buying some gifts, I had five yuan left, so I gave it all to him. When I sobered up, I realized who it was, but the money had already been given and could not be taken back.

Because he knew Jianshu's dislike for this family, he didn't dare tell her. He planned to find someone to get it back himself, and then tell her. At that time, she would at most scold him and would not get angry.

But I am used to being open and honest, so I feel guilty about hiding this matter from Jianshu. Otherwise, I wouldn't have revealed it as soon as Jianshu lied to me.

"Listen to me, it's just..." After explaining everything in detail, Gu Mingjing hesitantly stepped forward and squatted down to hug Jian Shu's calf. "Wife, I was wrong. I shouldn't have kept it from you. I was just afraid that you would get angry and hurt yourself."

"Since you're afraid that I'll be angry, why don't you be careful? I told you not to drink more, but you still drank so much. Now you know what's going on, right? Someone has tricked you, right?" After hearing the whole story, Jianshu calmed down.

Gu Mingjing was wrong in this matter, but not in an outrageous way. Helping to block the wine at the wedding was a brotherly gesture, and it was what he should do. If there was any mistake, it was that he didn't refuse the wine in time. At the wedding, everyone was having a lively time, and she could understand that he didn't want to spoil the fun, but she didn't agree.

Drinking can be a big deal, but if you don't refuse every time you're offered alcohol, what happens? This time, Zhou Yun borrowed five dollars, but what about next time? And the next time?

Although five dollars is nothing to their family, it is definitely not a small amount at that time.

Furthermore, was he unwilling to refuse, or was he half-heartedly unwilling to refuse? He might have drunk so much in the end, but didn't he have the desire to drink in the beginning? He might even find her not letting him drink difficult to understand.

After all, there is no one around who doesn't drink. Everyone has a good alcohol tolerance and can easily drink half a pound or a pound.

Jianshu was getting a bit stuck in a rut, feeling like she was meddling too much. Why did she have to care so much? If he wanted to drink, then let him drink. It wasn't her body that was hurting. In the end, her meddling was disliked, and she didn't get any good out of it.

The more she thought about it, the more annoyed she became. Jianshu didn't even want to care about borrowing money. Forget it, let him do whatever he wanted. She didn't care anymore. He could do whatever he wanted.

He stood up with a somewhat bored look on his face and said, "You can do whatever you want in the future. If you want to drink, drink. You don't have to be afraid to go home when you're drunk. You can sleep in the second bedroom or somewhere else. It's up to you, just don't bother me."

Drink if you want, she won’t care anymore.

After saying that, she raised her foot and wanted to leave. She felt a little bored and thought that she should take a nap and feel better.

"Wife!" Gu Mingjing was completely panicked. He would rather scold him or beat him like before, but the indifferent expression on Jian Shu's face at this moment seemed to tell him that she didn't care about him anymore.

She no longer cared what he did.

"I was wrong, I'm sorry, I know I was wrong, please don't leave me..." Gu Mingjing was panicked. His brain, which was usually full of plans, was blank at this moment. Apart from a few words he repeated over and over again, he could not think of anything else.

He hugged Jianshu tightly, as if he wanted to embed him in his arms, resting his chin on Jianshu, and kept muttering, "I'm sorry."

Jianshu stood there, letting him hold her in his arms, not wanting to speak.

Oh, you apologized. But I didn't feel any emotion.

It was not until a tear woke her up that she came out of her dilemma.

What's wrong with her?

It wasn't a big deal, so why did it get so serious? Couldn't she just talk it out? Why did she have to ignore it? Didn't she hate the cold shoulder?

Feeling that Gu Mingjing's hands were shaking as he held her, and that there was a large wet spot on her shoulder, Jian Shu's heart softened all of a sudden.

She sighed, put her arms around his waist, patted his back soothingly with her right hand, and said softly, "Okay, don't cry. It was my fault just now. I shouldn't have said those words. How could I not want you?"

She hadn't expected that just one sentence would cause him such panic. It turned out that he was so worried about losing her.

Gu Mingjing paused at first, and the next second Jianshu felt the hands on his waist tightened. She endured the pain, smiled faintly and continued to comfort him, "I'm here, I'm here, I won't leave." Her hands stroked his back again and again.

After a long time, Gu Mingjing finally controlled himself and loosened his hand slightly. The two looked at each other. He shook his head slightly and tried to force a smile, but his red and swollen eyes revealed the emotions he was forcibly controlling.

"No, Shushu is right. It's my fault. I didn't listen to you. You are right. He is not a good person. Drinking can easily lead to mistakes. I will never drink again." He was lucky and thought it would be okay to drink less. He didn't expect the wine to have a strong aftereffect and drank too much. He shouldn't have made a mistake and not known how to correct it but wanted to hide it. That's why everything happened later.

Jianshu could tell that he was speaking from the heart, and she believed that after what happened today, Gu Mingjing really wouldn't dare drink again.

When other people get drunk they just feel uncomfortable, but he not only lost all his money, but his wife almost left him after a quarrel. It's a painful lesson that he will probably never forget for the rest of his life.

Jianshu's emotions came and went quickly, but now that the two of them had talked it out, she was no longer angry. "Then will you still listen to me in the future?" After all, this was what she cared about most.

"Listen, from now on, what my wife says is an imperial decree in our family. She will tell me to go east and never go west, and she will tell me to sleep on the bed and never on the kang!" Gu Mingjing swore to the sky, and traces of crying could still be heard in his voice.

"Pfft..." Jian Shu was amused by him and held his fingers and bent them down. "You want to die? What imperial decree are you talking about? I don't want to be reported."

"It's my fault, it's my fault." Seeing her smile, Gu Mingjing finally felt relieved and also smiled foolishly.

The two smiled at each other for a while, and Jian Shu reached out to touch his face, wiped away the tears on his face, and said softly: "Silly."

Isn’t it said that men don’t shed tears easily?

Gu Mingjing lowered his head to facilitate her movements, with his eyes closed, looking very well-behaved.
