"Tell me, what happened?"
"You came back with a long face. Who upset you this time?" He turned her around so she was facing him.
"No, no one provoked me," Su Nianxue said, her voice somewhat muffled.
“Su Nianxue, these are my eyes, they’re not just for show.”
While I was outsmarting people, you were still playing in the mud with others!
"You little sparrow, do you think you can outmaneuver an old thief like me?" He wears his heart on his sleeve; he's not blind.
Su Nianxue remained silent; she really couldn't bring herself to say it.
“I asked Yanliu, and she said she didn’t know.”
"If you don't tell me, I'll go ask Wang Erya." Seeing that he still wouldn't talk, he raised his stakes again.
"No, no, don't go. It has nothing to do with Wang Erya." Afraid that he would really go to find Wang Erya, Su Nianxue hurriedly spoke up.
"So, are you going to tell me or not? If you don't, I'm leaving." He made a move to get out of bed.
"I, I'll talk..." She grabbed his clothes, afraid he would run to the next room.
"Tell me, are you trying to drive me crazy with worry?!"
When I talk back to him, he's quick-witted and eloquent.
When it comes to serious matters, she falls silent.
I don't know what's wrong with me?
"Gu Yanbai, Sister Taozi also... has a stomachache!" She hesitated before speaking, her voice slightly stammering.
Gu Yanbai looked completely bewildered. "What is this all about?"
Can't you explain this to me clearly?
Besides, what does this other person's business have to do with you?
"Is it really worth coming back with a long face? Isn't this just asking for trouble?"
"No, it has nothing to do with me." She bit her lip and slowly sat up in bed.
"Wang Erya said that Sister Taozi suffers from severe pain every time she has her period, just like me."
Moreover, she hasn't had any children all these years..."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yanbai understood. "Are you afraid you'll end up like her?"
Su Nianxue nodded, her head bowed, not daring to look up at his expression.
I don't think any man wouldn't mind this, right?
Actually, it wasn't just men who minded; she herself felt the same way!
If she really can't have children, perhaps this peaceful and warm life will soon come to an end.
Hearing her say that, Gu Yanbai was taken aback, and his expression suddenly became more serious.
She was shrouded in sadness, and seeing her like that, his heart felt as if it had been pricked by needles, a dull ache lingering in it.
He gently pulled her into his arms, patted her back softly, and said in a tender voice.
"It's okay, don't scare yourself."
We'll go to the county tomorrow and see that old doctor for a check-up.
"What a coincidence!"
Nestled against his chest, listening to his steady and powerful heartbeat, Su Nianxue's panicked heart gradually calmed down.
She suddenly realized that she seemed to have become infatuated with this embrace.
Although this person has a sharp tongue and is always cursing and swearing.
She has a terrible temper and always argues with her.
He always has a dark expression on his face and is constantly threatening her, telling her what she can and can't do.
But she couldn't deny that the period of her life after marrying him was the most comfortable time she had experienced in recent years.
If nothing unexpected happens, she wants to continue living like this forever.
If I go to the county tomorrow and get confirmation...
She's afraid she'll never be able to live like that again.
Tears began to flow without his noticing, soaking the front of his shirt.
He picked up a handkerchief and gently wiped her eyes, saying softly...
"Alright, don't be afraid, the sky won't fall down."
Even if the sky falls, I, being tall, will hold it up.
Don't think too much about it, just get some sleep first!
"You must be tired after getting up so early this morning. Let's talk about this after you've woken up."
Su Nianxue was indeed exhausted, and after crying, she quickly fell asleep.
However, she didn't sleep soundly.
In her dream, she went to the hospital with Gu Yanbai and learned that she had a health problem.
Later, Gu Yanbai ignored her and left with a cold face, leaving her alone in the hospital.
Later, he brought home a heavily pregnant woman and insisted on divorcing her.
The scene shifts, and she returns to the village.
The villagers all knew about it and started gossiping behind her back; some even mocked her to her face.
Grandpa Gu stopped smiling at her.
Gu Yanliu always had a cold face.
There are also Wang Lanhua and Su Jiaojiao, who keep saying that she was born unlucky.
Even if you live a good life, what good is it if you can't hold onto this blessing?
The villagers' open and covert mockery, Wang Lanhua and her son's sarcastic remarks, and the Gu family's cold treatment.
These things were like a fine net, tightly wrapping her up and making it difficult for her to breathe.
But she couldn't break free or escape.
Su Nianxue shuddered and suddenly opened her eyes.
When she saw the room's layout, she realized she had been dreaming.
This can be considered a case of "what you think about during the day, you dream about at night."
But this dream was terrifying!
She smiled wryly and wiped the fine beads of sweat from her forehead.
She was just about to get up and go out for some fresh air when she heard Gu Yanbai's voice.
"Sleep a little longer, it's still early."
"Gu Yanbai, you're not asleep?" She moved very gently, but unexpectedly woke him up.
"I get enough sleep at night, so I have trouble sleeping during the day."
