Chapter 20 The Moon Falls into the Swamp
"My husband...is afraid!" Liang Jingxuan would cover her eyes when she saw something scary. She was worried that Lu Sui would be afraid too, so she reached out her other hand to cover his eyes. "My husband is not afraid...!"
Liang Jingxuan just ate spicy noodles...
Lu Sui's eyes were burning with pain, "If my mother doesn't beat you up when we get back, I'll take your last name!"
Liang Jingxuan pouted, "My husband is bad!..."
Lu Sui gritted his teeth and held his breath until the end of the movie, "Get down!" "No...just go home like this..." Lu Sui's shoulders were very broad and thick, full of bulging muscles, and Liang Jingxuan had not sat long enough.
"Get down, the road is bad... you'll fall!" The road in Yunwu Village was full of potholes and rocks. Liang Jingxuan was making a fuss again. If he fell, the army would either scold him to death or scold him to death...
"good……"
Liang Jingxuan was soft-hearted and came down obediently, but he wanted to hold Lu Sui's hand and would not leave unless he was allowed to hold. Lu Sui felt that two grown men holding hands was very creepy, so he only let him hold one finger, "You are not a cow, why do you still want to hold..."
Liang Jingxuan tightly grasped Lu Sui's fingers, "I am a pig, you said..."
Lu Sui, "..."
"I am a sow, and you are a boar..."
“Ahhhh…”
“Ahhhhhhhh…”
In the dark forest, cries and screams were heard one after another...
Liang Jingxuan was carried back by Lu Sui. When he was put down, his legs were shaking and he couldn't even stand steadily. His soft and tender face was red and swollen from crying. "...I want to tell my second uncle and second aunt that you hit me again..."
Lu Sui was not frightened by him. Instead, he said provocatively, "Go ahead. I'll beat you up right away. I'll beat you up in front of Second Aunt! Even the two of them can't stop me, let alone Second Aunt!"
"Then I'll go find the village chief! ..." If a man in the village beats his wife, the village chief will find a strong man in the village to tie the man to the ancestral hall, beat him with a reed stick, and hang a sign around his neck as a warning. The army is the one that enters the ancestral hall the most...
Lu Sui sneered, "Can you walk?"
Liang Jingxuan was crying so hard that he was out of breath and shaking like a sieve. "I'll crawl..."
Lu Sui pressed down the corner of his mouth, "Then you crawl!"
Liang Jingxuan wiped his tears and humiliated himself to take off his clothes. Lu Sui's expression suddenly changed and he grabbed his hand, "What are you doing?!"
"I want to crawl, but I definitely can't get my clothes dirty. Auntie has a hard time washing them... I'll take them off before I crawl... Don't worry, I don't want you to help me get my clothes!"
Liang Jingxuan tried to pry his hands apart, but failed. Instead, Lu Sui held them tightly, "Don't let go!"
"Then how do I climb?" Liang Jingxuan sobbed.
Lu Sui's blood boiled, he closed his eyes, as if he was trying to endure something, his Adam's apple moved, he leaned over and picked him up, "Go home and crawl again!"
Liang Jingxuan hugged his neck, biting his swollen lips, and his nose twitched a little more violently, "Do you want to take off your clothes?"
"No!"
"But if you don't take off your clothes... they will get dirty."
"I'll wash the dirty ones..." Since he came back, he has been doing most of the laundry at home...
"husband……"
"Um……?"
“You’re a good husband…!”
Lu Sui froze for a moment. Liang Jingxuan was like a handful of moon that fell into a swamp with rotten wood and collapsed. It would not be swallowed by the swamp, but would illuminate the mud around it...
"Honey, what are you thinking about?"
"Nothing..."
"Honey, I need to pee..."
Lu Sui, "..."
When Lu Jun came back drunk, Liang Jingxuan was watching TV in her bunny pajamas. Her long hair was wet from the shower and covered her neck softly. "Aunt, Uncle is back!"
Lu Jun put his finger to his mouth and said "tsk". Liang Jingxuan tilted his head in confusion. Lu Jun was dizzy from drinking so much that he searched his pockets for a long time before he took out a silver bracelet. Lu Jun carefully grabbed Liang Jingxuan's wrist and put it on.
The bracelet was pressed against her delicate, snow-white skin, and the coldness penetrated into her bones bit by bit.
"You must wear the Xuanbao bracelet from now on, except when you sleep... you can't take it off!" The army stroked the bracelet. There was a pearl inlaid on the side, which was very abrupt. The army pressed the pearl lightly and turned it to the left twice, and a sharp dagger shot out from the bracelet.
"Ah...!" Liang Jingxuan covered his mouth, his eyes shrank in fear. Lu Jun pressed the inlaid pearl again, and the sharp dagger retracted, "Xuanbao, this... can only be pressed when there is danger. Be careful not to hurt yourself."
"Okay..." Liang Jingxuan stopped watching TV and squatted on the sofa, pondering the bracelet. Lu Sui stood in the corridor, blurring into a faint outline in the darkness.
"Husband...!" Liang Jingxuan jumped back to the room. Lu Sui was changing the sheets and quilt covers. Liang Jingxuan had secretly eaten spicy strips on the bed and made them dirty.
"Hubby, I'll help you..." The voice sounded guilty... "Hubby..." Liang Jingxuan rolled in front of Lu Sui. Lu Sui was wearing a quilt cover. A tall dark shadow fell from the bleak light and enveloped Liang Jingxuan's body.
The night wind blew past, making the osmanthus trees outside the window rustle. Lu Sui looked at Liang Jingxuan calmly with his dark eyes. A chill rose from his eyes, and a storm blew up in his body...
"Get in!"
Liang Jingxuan said "Oh" and rolled into the bed, "Husband..." Lu Sui put the quilt on his head, "Shut up!" Turn on the light and go to bed, all in one go. It's autumn, hot during the day and freezing at night.
Liang Jingxuan crawled out from the quilt and rolled into Lu Sui's chest, "Husband...!"
Lu frowned, "Sleep!"
"I'm afraid of the White Bone Lady..."
"There is no White Bone Lady..." But there is a demon who is extremely coquettish!
"Husband...is afraid!"
Lu Sui's rough big hand suddenly came out from under the quilt and pinched his snow-white jaw without letting go. Liang Jingxuan's bones were hurt by the clamp, "Hubby... it hurts!"
"Are you in pain or scared now?"
Liang Jingxuan sobbed, "It hurts and I'm scared..."
Within two seconds, Lu Sui surrendered, pulled up the Yuanyang quilt, twisted the corners of the quilt and hugged Liang Jingxuan with his arms, tightening it continuously, turning it into a restraint, "Sleep!"
Liang Jingxuan rubbed Lu Sui's rolling Adam's apple with the tip of her nose, "Hubby... I'm not afraid anymore..."
"sleep……"
"Okay, husband...!"
After the rice was harvested, the fields looked like a layer of skin had been cut off, and piles of dry straw were piled up in the fields, like Christmas trees, or like big graves... Liang Jingxuan held a large bundle of dry straw and handed it to Lu Sui, "You just watch from the side..." Lu Sui had said this countless times.
Liang Jingxuan was very stubborn, "I don't want it...Husband, you are tired alone..."
Lu Sui's hot gaze flickered from side to side on him, and she said in a deep voice, "Your clothes are dirty, and I have to wash them when I get home, which is even more tiring!"
Liang Jingxuan choked, with a trace of loneliness in her eyes, and poked her palm, "Okay... I'll listen to my husband..."
"Xuanbao!" Liang Jingxuan turned around abruptly, "Li Yu!" A young man in a blue school uniform was standing by the Tongqian River. He was Liang Jingxuan's second best friend, the first one was Erhu!
"Xuanbao!" Li Yu was sweating profusely from running. He had narrow, red eyes with upturned corners, very fair skin, and beautiful lips that were curled up. "I came to see you as soon as I got back. My uncle and aunt said you were here. I bought you some spicy noodles and lots of Jinwei!"
"Jinwei is OK, but spicy strips are not. My husband won't let me eat them..." Liang Jingxuan looked at Lu Sui with tears in her eyes, as if she was abused by him. Lu Sui's eyes were cold, and Li Yu shouted in fear, "Brother Sui..."
Lu Sui gritted his teeth and said "hmm", then continued to add straw.
"I came here with my brother today. He is repairing a van for my second uncle. I won't go home. We can sleep together tonight!" Liang Jingxuan watched most of the zombie movies at Li Yu's house. He was too scared to go home. Sometimes he slept at his house, and sometimes the army would pick him up.
Liang Jingxuan shook her head seriously.
"No, my husband is back. I can't sleep with you anymore. You will have a wife in the future. You should sleep with your wife, but I want to sleep with my husband...! Erhu said that sleeping with you is cheating on me. I can't let my husband down..."
Li Yu, "..."
Lu Sui, "..."
Going back, Li Yu wanted to carry Liang Jingxuan on her back like she used to, "No, my husband is back, and he should carry me! And you always make me fall on your back..."
"I can't do it anymore!" Li Yu wanted to show off his biceps, but when he saw Lu Sui's bulging tendons, he pulled down his sleeves. Liang Jingxuan opened her arms, "My husband, carry me!"
Lu Sui looked more aggressive than usual. He narrowed his eyes, bent down and lifted Liang Jingxuan up. "Ah..." Liang Jingxuan was in a daze as all the blood in her body flowed back to her brain. "My husband is bad! ... Bad!"
"Brother Sui..." Li Yu swallowed back his words before he could finish. Lu Sui's muscular back was covered with a layer of sexy sweat, and his muscular arms were holding two shaking legs.
The strange atmosphere was relieved when they arrived at the Osmanthus Courtyard. Lu Sui roughly threw Liang Jingxuan onto the sofa. "Xuanbao!" Li Yujie helped her up. "It's okay... My husband often throws me like this, I'm used to it!"
Li Yu was indignant, "How could Brother Sui do this?! This is too much..."
Liang Jingxuan poked her palm and said, "Actually, my husband is not that bad. It's mainly because I provoked him..."
Li Yu, "..."
"How many days do you have off?" Li Yu handed him the Jinwei with a straw inserted. "Five days. I'm in the third year of high school. Only five days off." Li Yu was in high school in the county. He only had one day off a month, and it was only one day. It was too late for him to go back to Yunwu Village.
Liang Jingxuan took a big gulp of Jinwei, "Then... you can't celebrate your birthday? Erhu and I have prepared a birthday present for you..."
Li Yu propped his chin up in frustration, "There's nothing I can do, I'm in my third year of high school... But luckily, I have my brother with me..."
"Then Erhu and I will give you the birthday present in advance..." Liang Jingxuan said and took a big sip of Jinwei.
Li Yu glanced out the window cautiously. Lu Suilujun was watching Li Ying repairing the van. Song Huizi was in the kitchen. He opened a bottle of Jinwei, put a straw in it, and handed it to Liang Jingxuan, asking nervously, "Xuanbao, are you willing to be my wife?"
