Yang Shushu particularly hated Mu Shicang's habit of beating around the bush. Sometimes she had to think a lot when listening to him speak.
It's now.
She was stunned at first, then thought about it, and finally looked at him with a puzzled expression: "Mu Shicang, you have paranoid delusions, right? I want to cheat on you every day, but I wouldn't use my child to cheat on you, right? This is your cousin, can you behave like a human being?"
As soon as she said this, the manager and the fishmonger shut their mouths. What kind of shocking news was this?
Manager: Is there anyone who dares to cheat on Master Xiao Mu?
The fishmongering lady: This girl is such a ruthless person. She wants to cheat on such a handsome husband. How handsome must that cuckold be?
So, the focus turned to Yu Xing's rules.
At this time, Yu Xinggui lowered his head and huddled behind Yang Shushu. He wanted to stand up and explain several times, but when he looked up and saw Mu Shicang's eyes, he was frightened and shrank back. His hands were clenched into fists, and his teeth were biting his lower lip, almost biting into the flesh. He hated himself for being like this, but Mu Shicang was like a mountain pressing down on his head. No matter how he struggled, he could not escape the shadow he created.
He knew that it was not Mu Shicang's fault, but he could not help but put him in front of him, and when that happened, he would feel that he was useless.
Yang Shushu sensed his fear and thought of what he had said during the break.
Awe!
"Mu Shicang, if there's any score to settle, we'll settle it later. I'll let you go today."
As she spoke, she pulled Yu Xinggui and was about to leave, but Mu Shicang grabbed her shoulders from behind and asked, "Where are you going?"
"What do you care about me?" She raised her arm to shake him off, but failed. Instead, he took a step forward and hooked his arm around her neck. "You guys seem to be buying groceries. I'll come too."
As he spoke, he smiled gently at Yu Xinggui and said, "Xinggui, you don't mind if my second brother joins too, right?"
Seeing Yu Xinggui's head buried in his chest, one hand tightly clutching his clothes, Yang Shushu couldn't help but feel distressed. She nudged Mu Shicang with her elbow and whispered, "Could you please not scare him? I finally brought him out once, and now he's retreating back into his shell and committing suicide again?"
Mu Shicang blinked innocently, lowered his head to her ear, and looked quite intimate: "Wife, I'm sad when you say that. I don't look scary."
Yu Xinggui didn't look up, but he seemed to see Mu Shicang lying on the ground and talking in Yang Shushu's ear. At that moment, he felt that his chest was blocked by something. He instinctively wanted to escape, but his body seemed to be rooted. There was an invisible obsession that made him unwilling to escape. It seemed that he could imagine that if he ran away at this time, Yang Shushu would look disappointed.
He didn't want to see that look in her eyes, so he forced himself to be brave and had the courage to face Mu Shicang.
Mu Shicang had returned to normal by this time. He had suppressed the sudden emotion just now. But his reason told him that he could leave, but what he did was to say to the manager: "Manager, you go and do your thing. I just want to go shopping with my wife."
He told himself that he was just curious as to why Yu Xinggui, who usually didn't even want to talk to people, would actually go to the market with Yang Shushu.
…………………………………………
Mu Shicang's appearance and aura, coupled with Yu Xinggui's good looks, the two of them walking here are like two walking spotlights. Wherever they go, eyes follow them. Yang Shushu has become the least noticeable one.
She walked between the two of them and could feel Yu Xinggui's nervousness. Just when she had finally managed to raise his head and look to the side a little, he was frightened and shrank back again. Yang Shushu felt that this was all Mu Shicang's fault.
"Hey, it's working hours now, right? Is it really okay to slack off like this?" She nudged Mu Shicang with her arm and whispered.
Mu Shicang bent his eyes and looked at her with a smile: "Jin Lian'er, when you talk like this, I feel like you'll force me to take medicine when I get home tonight."
Yang Shushu's mouth twitched: "You're not done yet, are you? Dalang?"
Yu Xinggui: “…” I should be under the car, right?
Perhaps sensing Yu Xinggui's somewhat stiff body, Yang Shushu intended to have him join his battle of wits and courage with Mu Shicang, so she added, "Uncle is a handsome man with a dignified appearance. I understand that you don't have confidence, but you have to trust uncle and me, right? Uncle, everything between us is innocent. When I find Mr. Ximen one day, I'll give you medicine."
Yu Xinggui: “…” Just find a hole to hide yourself.
Mu Shicang followed suit with a smile, then glanced at Yu Xinggui: "Xinggui, did you hear that? On that day, you must avenge your brother and chop off the head of that Ximen official as a sacrifice to me."
Yu Xinggui: “…” Second brother’s smile is so scary that I dare not look at him.
Yang Shushu felt Yu Xinggui's foot pause, his body slightly turned to the side, his toes pointed outward, his intention to run away was very obvious. She grabbed him the moment he raised his foot, then turned around and glared at Mu Shicang: "Can you act like a brother? I finally got him to say a few more words and come out with me. If you kick him again, I will kick you."
Mu Shicang shrugged innocently: "I didn't do anything."
The three of them were currently stopping at a beef stall. The owner lowered his head and was chopping the bones one by one. This sound was not unusual in the market, and no one paid attention to it at first. However, Yu Xinggui sensed something was amiss.
He originally wanted to run away, but was stopped by Yang Shushu. When he heard the noise again, he didn't know what to do for a moment. He wanted to talk to Yang Shushu, but because Mu Shicang was next to him, he was a little afraid to speak. Finally, he looked at the butcher who was chopping bones nearby.
When most people think of selling meat, they will think of an image of a fat and big-eared man. In fact, this is not necessarily the case. The owner of the meat stall in front of us is very thin. He lowered his head, but his whole person gives people a gloomy feeling.
Yu Xinggui only took a glance at the man, and his gaze moved from his face to his hands that were chopping bones. He was holding a bone-chopping knife in his hand, and a boning knife beside him. The bone he was chopping was obviously about to break, but he was still chopping it one by one, and in a very rhythmic and focused manner, as if all his energy was focused on it.
This feeling seemed familiar to him. When his condition was at its worst, he liked to repeat one thing over and over again. If he was writing, he would keep repeating the same word. If he tore a piece of paper, he would tear it to pieces because that would calm him down a little, at least suppress the urge to die immediately.
The doctor said that was his self-protection mechanism. When a person desperately wants to do something and is almost unable to control himself, but there is still a trace of reason telling him that this thing is wrong, then he may continue to use the same thing to numb himself.
