Chapter 305: Sadomasochism (Part 10)
Huoshui was completely stunned!
Damn, Gu Qingcheng, what kind of monster are you? Just because you lost your memory, you are almost going crazy!
Not only did you cheat on a "wife" who was willing to work like a slave for you, but you even wanted to use this to deal with Emperor Qing?!
You, you——
The troublemaker fell to the ground with his whole body prostrated on the ground! Above the virtual little fur ball, a bold and large word "服" was written!
Conquer! It is completely convinced!
Gu Qingcheng's series of outrageous actions directly made Huoshui "autistic".
It no longer dares to make random "suggestions". Woohoo, this is not helping at all, it is clearly showing off its low IQ.
At least compared to Her Majesty the Queen of Heaven, it is really stupid! "No wonder you always call me a little idiot! Isn't it an insult?"
The disaster rolled to the side, shrank into a ball, and completely disappeared.
Without the distraction of trouble, Gu Qingcheng felt more and more comfortable.
The donkey cart headed north, crossed the border, and arrived at the territory of the Qing Dynasty.
Wu Yanniang is indeed a woman who dares to tell outrageous lies. She was not afraid at all when she went to Qing Dynasty for the first time.
While traveling, she would gather herbs or set a trap.
After the medicinal materials are prepared, they are taken to the county town and sold.
As for the prey, part of it was used to replenish Gu Qingcheng's body, and part of it was sold.
She walked and worked all the way, and not only did she not spend her last bit of savings, she even made a small profit.
As for Gu Qingcheng, thanks to Wu Yanniang's careful care, her broken leg recovered very well.
The whole person is also kept smooth and shiny.
Gu Qingcheng's beauty was already stunning, and with proper care, she looked particularly radiant.
She is like the bright moon in the sky, and also like a touch of brightness in the crowd.
They have been together for a month or two and have become husband and wife. Every time Wu Yanniang sees that handsome face, her heart beats faster and her pretty face turns red.
It’s a pity that due to Jiu’s injury, the two have never had a very close relationship.
"No rush! Once Jiu's leg is healed and we find a suitable place to stay, we will consummate our marriage."
With this thought in mind, Wu Yanniang became more motivated.
After walking for another half a month, they arrived at a county town three or four hundred miles away from the capital of Qing Dynasty.
Wu Yanniang estimated: Well, this place is quite far away from Feng Dynasty, and also some distance away from the capital of Qing Dynasty.
She doesn't have to worry about Ajiu recalling the past because of the familiar environment, nor does she have to worry about Ajiu's relatives coming looking for her, nor does she have to worry about meeting a noble person who will snatch Ajiu from her!
Wu Yanniang's considerations were really thorough, and she thought of all the situations she could think of.
She didn't even choose to settle down in the county town, but went to a small mountain village outside the county town.
There’s nothing I can do, Ajiu is so handsome.
What if someone takes a fancy to him and wants to snatch him to be a live-in son-in-law? She should stay in the small mountain village. On the one hand, she can continue to collect herbs and dig traps to make money. On the other hand, she can let Jiu live in a simple and closed place to reduce the possibility of "accidents"!
"Ajiu! I asked around. Dongjia Village is thirty miles south of the city. It seems to be the hometown that my father-in-law mentioned."
"Let's go to Dongjia Village, firstly to trace our roots, and secondly to settle down temporarily!"
Wu Yanniang actually didn't forget the lie she had made up and deliberately chose a place called Dongjia Village.
Gu Qingcheng: ...He is a talented person! What a pity that his intelligence is not used in the right place.
Of course, even so, such people can live well no matter what time it is or what situation they encounter!
If that is the case, then she can proceed with her next plan with peace of mind!
Huoshui: ...Listen to yourself, is what you said reasonable? Oh, because she is smart, because she is capable, she deserves to be schemed by you? Isn't this the same as some scumbags' idea: the scheming woman is too weak and needs too much protection, so you can hurt your wife (girlfriend) for her? Just because your wife (girlfriend) is stronger, even if she is hurt, she will not die? !
What kind of scumbag theory is this? Gu Qingcheng: ...Hehe, I have a low character value! Is it normal to have a scumbag theory?
The troublemaker had been quiet all the time and didn't want to jump out to make his presence known.
But after seeing Gu Qingcheng secretly doing things, it couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, putting aside Wu Yanniang's deception, she did save you and took care of you for two months!"
"Just based on this point, you, you can't repay kindness with hatred."
Gu Qingcheng smiled, but did not stop making small moves, "Your words sound so familiar. Just like the rogue words 'putting aside the facts' on the Internet in later generations, it has exactly the same flavor."
"But, but you always say 'judgment is based on deeds, not on the heart'. People saved you and took care of you——"
"So, I didn't take revenge on her, let alone kill her!"
Gu Qingcheng just thought that the disaster was interesting.
After working with me for so long, I still don’t understand her “essence”.
Talking reason to politicians?
Haha, those saints’ classics and famous quotes are “used on demand”.
If you need it, it’s like “the one who is close to the water gets the moon first”; if you don’t need it, it’s like “a rabbit doesn’t eat grass near its burrow”.
These words all make sense, yet they are damn contradictory.
So, wise sayings are not omnipotent.
The best way is to use it in different occasions and according to your needs!
Huoshui was once again driven into autism, and rolled back into the corner, silently watching Gu Qingcheng making trouble.
That day, after Wu Yanniang used most of the money to handle household registration, rent a house and other matters, the two prepared to go to Dongjia Village.
Just as she was about to leave, Wu Yanniang accidentally fell down the stairs of the inn.
Snap!
Wu Yanniang's leg was broken.
"Mrs. Yan! Are you okay?"
"Woo woo! Yan Niang, please don't get into trouble!"
"Someone come! Someone come and help!"
Gu Qingcheng vividly portrayed the image of a husband who was in a state of panic due to his concern for his lover, crying and calling for help.
Soon, the innkeeper, waiters, and passengers all gathered around.
Everyone worked together to send Wu Yanniang to a nearby clinic.
"The leg bone is broken, just connect it!"
The doctor felt the wound and then treated Wu Yanniang's broken leg.
Then, there was the medical expenses: "Cheng Hui, eight hundred and twenty coins."
Wu Yanniang's face was already pale, and when she heard about the expensive medical expenses, she couldn't help but feel the pain in her heart.
It was almost one string of silver, and she didn't have much money on hand.
I just got my household registration done and have already spent most of it.
Now there is only one tael of cash left.
Besides, her leg was injured and she could no longer earn money.
As for Jiu, his old injuries have not healed and he has lost his memory. He simply cannot be a normal man.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Whether he can make money is one thing, but Wu Yanniang is worried that if he runs away, he may not come back! What should we do without money? "Yanniang, how about we sell the donkey cart first?"
Wu Yanniang: ...That’s all we can do.
So the donkey cart was sold.
However, for two injured people, not to mention the medical expenses, even the rent of the inn and the cost of three meals a day all cost money.
"Mother Yan, how about I find a job? I, I can read! Even if I go to the streets and copy for people, I can earn some money."
"No! Y-your leg isn't healed yet!"
Wu Yanniang directly denied it.
Firstly, I really feel sorry for his legs.
Secondly, as an outsider, it is impossible to find a job without a guarantor.
Thirdly, Wu Yanniang still didn't want Gu Qingcheng to show up in public.
She's too good looking, so the chances of being snatched away by someone else are too high.
"How about we pawn the jade pendant first?"
Gu Qingcheng made several suggestions in succession, but they were all rejected by Wu Yanniang.
Then, she bit her lip, with reluctance in her eyes, but still said this sentence.
Wu Yanniang: ...Yes! And the jade pendant! Although, she was reluctant to part with it and wanted to keep it as a family heirloom.
But now, both the couple can hardly survive.
Heirlooms are not that important.
The key point is that she is the one who is injured, and she is the one who needs good medicinal materials and bone soup to nourish her body.
Wu Yanniang did not want to wrong Gu Qingcheng, and she did not want to wrong herself.
"All right!"
Wu Yanniang hesitated for just a moment and then took out the jade pendant from her bosom.
She handed it to Gu Qingcheng solemnly, "Ajiu, this jade pendant is worth at least one hundred strings of cash."
"However, since we are doing it for a living, the price may be lower."
"I asked the shopkeeper. There is a Qingji Pawnshop on the front street. It is said to be the property of a nobleman in Beijing. It is relatively fair..."
Wu Yanniang kept nagging and giving instructions like an old mother who was worried about her son.
"Hmm! Hmm!"
Gu Qingcheng responded obediently, just like a good baby who only listened to her mother! Wu Yanniang became more and more worried.
She subconsciously tried to get up, but it pulled her broken leg and the pain made her gasp.
It seems that she can only let "Ajiu" go by himself! Oh! I hope "Ajiu" can go and come back quickly and get the money back smoothly!
"Go ahead!"
With tears in her eyes, Wu Yanniang watched Gu Qingcheng leave.
She didn't know why, but she always had a bad feeling.
Soon, the premonition came true.
"Ajiu" went away for a long time but didn't come back.
Wu Yanniang could only call the clerk, stuff two copper coins into his hand, and ask him to go to Qingji Pawn Shop to have a look.
After a while, the boy came back running happily.
"I didn't see your husband!"
"but--"
At this point, the young man looked embarrassed, but there was still a hint of pity in his eyes.
"I heard that half an hour ago, a carriage hit a passerby at an intersection near Qingji Pawn Shop."
"That nobleman was very kind and ordered his men to carry the man away! Alas, I don't know whether he is alive or dead."
"I, I also heard that the passerby was very young, wearing an indigo robe."
Indigo robe? Wu Yanniang's face turned pale instantly.
Her Ah Jiu was wearing indigo clothes.
Could it be him?
Ajiu is dead?
Or was he rescued by someone? Wu Yanniang was in a state of confusion.
Of course, she did not overlook one problem: Jiu was also carrying their most valuable jade pendant.
What about the jade pendant?
Without Yujue and her husband, what should she do? "Young lady? Are you okay?"
The waiter looked to be in his twenties, and was very concerned when he saw Wu Yanniang's expression.
Wu Yanniang's mind moved slightly, and she had an idea...
