After Yang Dongmei learned that the two had completed their discharge procedures, she helped them pack their things to prepare for their return. After all, it was quite a distance back, and if they couldn't catch the village's oxcart, they would have to walk for a long time.
Jiang Jinxiu was reluctant to leave, but Aunt Luo urged her to go back immediately.
He said if he had time, he would come to visit her again in the next day or two, as she wanted to stay a few more days.
However, plans don't always go as expected. When Jiang Jinxiu came to see her the next day, she had already taken a train back to Beijing, leaving only a letter for Jiang Jinxiu. It would be a very long time before the two met again.
The group hurried and finally caught up with the village's oxcart.
On the oxcart, Jiang Jinxiu and Gu Xichen sat close together.
Gu Xilan and Yang Dongmei sat opposite them.
There were also several other uncles and aunts from the village sitting in the car, making a total of about ten people.
When people saw Jiang Jinxiu sitting quietly next to Gu Xichen with bandages on her head, they couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Everyone was curious: how did Jiang, the educated youth, suddenly become so well-behaved?
Does that mean they'll behave after kowtowing?
Everyone was filled with doubt, but they couldn't very well ask in front of the other person.
It's important to know that Yang Dongmei and her daughter Gu Xilan are not people to be trifled with.
They are still extremely protective of their own.
No one is allowed to say a bad word about them being family-oriented.
No matter who it is to.
Therefore, people will avoid provoking them if possible.
Of course, there are a few exceptions, but they're not on this oxcart today.
Where no one could see, Jiang Jinxiu held Gu Xichen's large hand and played with it, occasionally hooking his palm.
It made Gu Xichen's heart tremble.
He tried to pull his large hand away, but when he saw those bright, watery eyes, he immediately let her have her way.
However, the redness on the tips of her ears did not fade away along the way.
As soon as he got home, Gu Xichen took Jiang Jinxiu back to his room.
Jiang Jinxiu stood at the doorway, looking at this familiar yet unfamiliar place.
Suddenly, I felt a sense of trepidation, as if I were returning home.
It was like a dream, yet not a dream.
Sometimes she wondered if she had really experienced those things in her previous life, or if it was just a dream.
But if it's just a dream, why does it feel so real?
In any case, she will not be as foolish as she was in her previous life.
In this life, she wants to be with Gu Xichen and protect the family who still care about her and the family she cares about.
She would try to resolve all the insecurity factors.
Of course, if some small itch dares to come up to her on its own, she won't let it go easily.
Gu Xichen didn't know why Jiang Jinxiu was standing at the door for so long without coming in.
He watched her face change constantly, wondering what she was thinking.
"Wife, come in." After a long while, he couldn't help but speak.
Jiang Jinxiu then came to her senses and went inside.
She walked over and stroked the big red "double happiness" character on the wall, and touched the bed they had only slept in a few times.
My mind is filled with many thoughts, and I feel very uncomfortable.
Gu Xichen locked the door after Jiang Jinxiu entered the room.
He stood by the door, watching the young woman's every move.
"Wife, didn't you used to get along well with Liu and Song, the educated youth? What happened today..."
Gu Xichen still asked the question that had been bothering him.
He didn't finish his sentence, but Jiang Jinxiu already knew what he wanted to ask.
He was still surprised that her attitude had suddenly changed.
He's insecure; he's afraid she'll change back and divorce him again.
Jiang Jinxiu walked directly in front of him, wrapped her arms around his strong waist, and rested her head on his chest.
Listen to his heartbeat, from steady to chaotic.
Feeling his warm skin.
That's good, he's still alive.
That's great, she can do it all over again.
That's good, they didn't get divorced.
Jiang Jinxiu felt deep regret whenever she thought of her past life.
Just thinking about what I did to Gu Xichen makes my heart ache.
"Brother Xichen, I'm sorry, I was wrong before, I'm so sorry!"
Faced with his wife's sudden apology, Gu Xichen was somewhat at a loss.
"Wife, you don't need to apologize to me. It's my fault for not doing a good enough job."
This silly man really only thinks of himself. Even though he did something wrong, he said it was because he didn't do it well enough.
In this life, Jiang Jinxiu only wants to be with him.
"Xichen, from now on I'll take care of your laundry and cooking, okay?"
Gu Xichen's heart melted, and he looked down at the woman before him with deep affection. A surge of happiness welled up within him.
He couldn't help but hold her tighter. The woman's soft, boneless body filled his embrace, and he could feel the heat between their skin and the pounding of their hearts even through their clothes.
From now on, if anyone dares to say anything bad about his wife, he'll get angry with them!
I must treat my wife even better from now on.
The two remained quietly together for a while before Gu Xichen suddenly said, "Wife, I'm not leaving."
Jiang Jinxiu stared blankly at Gu Xichen's abrupt and incoherent words.
"I only want you."
Gu Xichen continued.
Only then did Jiang Jinxiu recall the things she had said to the old woman at the hospital.
The man heard it all.
Suddenly, Jiang Jinxiu remembered the bracelet that Aunt Luo had given her.
She held the bracelet up to Gu Xichen, blinked, and asked, "Xichen, what should we do? Should we just accept this from someone else like this?"
Gu Xichen stroked the soft hair: "When I left, I secretly left them five ten-yuan bills. I paid the medical bills and left them the rest of the money I brought. Honey, keep this safe, don't let anyone see it."
