Chapter 193 Darkness (3,000 new words)
Xiuzhu stayed in bed for the whole morning. It wasn't that she was impolite, but she was just being ignorant and staying in bed even when she went to her husband's house.
But now she can't see anyone at all...
Her whole body was messed up by some pervert.
Xiuzhu has fair skin, and now the blue and purple marks are very obvious on it.
"My dear, are you still tired?" When Gu Yu opened the door, he saw his little wife lying on the bed with a sullen look on her face.
Looks so cute, I want to...
But no, she couldn't bear it any more, and she couldn't agree to it...
Why! He felt it again, damn, he really bought willpower when he saw her.
Xiuzhu got angry when she saw the culprit. She pouted and complained, "What are you talking about? Who is the reason why I can't get up? Look at the marks on my body. How can I go out? Others will know what happened and what we did at a glance."
"It's so hot on the island, I can't go out wearing long pants and long sleeves."
"It's all because of you. I didn't get a chance to wear all those beautiful dresses I made. Also, this morning, my mother-in-law took Gu Tong and the others to go fishing. I couldn't even join in on such a fun game. Are you being fair to me?"
Xiuzhu kept accusing him.
What else can Gu Yu do when his wife is angry? He has to coax her.
"My dear, my husband was wrong. It's all my fault for not being able to control myself. I won't leave any marks next time. Be good."
"What's the point of going to the beach? You'll get tanned. It's better for us to just wait and eat the food at home."
"Or whatever seafood you want, your husband can get it for you."
Xiuzhu rolled her eyes and questioned, "How do you do that? Just grab it with your bare hands. Humph, you're just lying to me. Do you really think you're omnipotent?"
Seeing that his wife didn't trust him, Gu Yu smiled and pinched her nose, then explained, "I used to be a navy officer, and it was common for me to go on missions in the deep sea. I often drifted on the sea for several months. Sometimes we didn't have enough food, so we went fishing in the sea. At that time, we had seafood for every meal, and everyone had to eat dirt, so don't question my ability in this regard."
It was the first time that Xiuzhu heard Gu Yu mention his past in the army.
She wanted to ask, curious about his experiences during that time, but she always felt that he seemed to be sad and didn't want to talk about it, so she hesitated for a moment.
Gu Yu was such a sharp person that he immediately realized what his wife was thinking. He gently hugged her and kissed her, then coaxed her, "Be good, I'll tell you everything later, okay?"
"Okay, then I want to eat king crab, lobster, and mantis shrimp." Xiuzhu didn't ask any more questions and naturally changed the subject.
There's no need to dig into the matter. Even if they're married, everyone has their own unspeakable secrets, and she has them too.
As long as it is not about the relationship between men and women, there is no need for her to know.
Whether to say it or not, and when to say it, all depends on him.
"King crabs and lobsters are both deep-sea creatures. It's unlikely that you'll encounter them on the shore. You're tired today, so I'll go to the beach this afternoon and bring back any goodies I find for you."
"If you like, I'll take you out to the sea tomorrow." Gu Yu completely forgot that he had just rejected his old father.
At this moment, he only wanted to thank his young wife for her understanding and did not continue to ask.
What he experienced in the army was an unspeakable pain for him. He had been emotionally indifferent since childhood, and it was the innocent hearts of that group of people that made him gradually experience emotions.
However, to this day, he has not been able to seek justice for those brothers who have gone through life and death with him.
It’s not that he can’t tell Xiuzhu these things, it’s just that they are too heavy. He doesn’t want to let his innocent little wife know the darkness of this world.
~~~~
That night at dinner, Xiuzhu successfully had the seafood feast she had always dreamed of.
Crabs, mantis shrimps, prawns, oysters, betta fish...all available.
Xiuzhu didn't say a word since she sat at the dining table. Her mind was on the seafood on the table.
Gu Yu was taking care of his young wife the whole time. As long as she glanced at him, he knew which dish she wanted to eat. Then he would serve her like a little ancestor, carefully peeling the shrimp and crab shells and putting them in her bowl.
He didn't eat much himself, but as long as he saw the satisfied smile on his wife's face, his heart was filled with enjoyment as well.
Xiuzhu is used to Gu Yu's care for her, and she has no intention of restraining herself even at her husband's house.
Fortunately, the Gu family are open-minded and don’t care about these things, but if this happened in someone else’s family, it would definitely cause dissatisfaction among the in-laws.
After all, most people cannot bear to see their son serving his daughter-in-law so wholeheartedly, but Gu's mother is very forward-thinking. Not only is she not dissatisfied, she also likes this way of getting along between her son and daughter-in-law.
This proves that the couple is a good couple. As long as the family is harmonious, everything will go well. She has worked hard to raise the children, so she doesn't want to cause trouble for herself.
When the children get married, they can live their own lives behind closed doors.
"Xiuzhu, try this oyster, it's good for beauty. We brought it back from the sea, it's very fresh!" Mother Gu brought a whole plate of oysters to her little daughter-in-law.
She really liked this pretty, delicate and soft little daughter-in-law, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart that it was good to be good-looking, and she could eat so elegantly and beautifully.
Xiuzhu's legs weakened when she mentioned oysters, but she still smiled sweetly at her mother-in-law, "Thank you, Mom."
Then she glanced at the man next to her and felt relieved when she saw that he didn't pick up the oysters on the plate.
She definitely couldn't let him mess with her at night anymore. Tomorrow she wanted to see the seaside in the early morning...
How could Gu Yu not understand his wife's little actions? He couldn't help but smile, what a little coward.
If he really wanted to, he didn't need any oysters. He just planned to let her go tonight. Seeing that she was in low spirits all day, he felt distressed.
"Gu Yu, cough, eat more oysters, eat." Gu's father was always serious and basically didn't talk while eating. This sudden sentence was very abrupt.
Xiuzhu slowed down her eating and her face turned red.
Yes, is she overthinking it?
Gu Yu was also quite speechless. What was his old father doing? Are you anxious to have a grandchild?
Father Gu really wanted to have a grandson, but he thought about it carefully during the day. His youngest son has been married for three years. He saw that the couple was in love every day, but there was still no movement. He was afraid that it might be...
The more I thought about it, the more worried I became. I even wanted to take my younger son to see an old Chinese doctor some other day.
Gu Yu didn’t know what his old father was thinking, otherwise he would be so angry that he would vomit blood. This is about a man’s dignity!
This episode is over.
Xiuzhu continued to devour the seafood on the table. Although she looked delicate and gentle while eating, she actually ate a lot.
The shrimp and crab shells on Gu Yu's desk were almost piled up into a small mountain.
But Xiuzhu still had no intention of stopping. She was eating crabs, but was still thinking about the mantis shrimps next to them.
There is no sea in Harbin and the current transportation conditions are inconvenient, so even if Gu Yu has the ability, he cannot let Xiuzhu eat fresh seafood.
In the past two years, Xiuzhu has been relying on the dried fish and shrimps mailed by her mother-in-law and her own mother to satisfy her cravings.
So, when she tasted such fresh seafood, she couldn't stop eating it.
There was even a grouper on the table. For seafood lovers, it was something they couldn’t stop eating.
"Have some ginger tea and eat it tomorrow, okay." Gu Yu knew that she loved seafood, but seafood is a cold food, and it is not good for girls to eat too much at once.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Although Xiuzhu was reluctant, she still listened to the advice, mainly because her stomach was so small and she really couldn't eat any more.
Gu Yu looked at his little wife who was so well-behaved and obedient that his eyes were filled with tears. If it weren't for the wrong occasion, he really wanted to hug her and kiss her hard.
How come his wife is so cute and attractive?
On the other side of the table, the situation was the opposite.
"I'll peel it for you, eat it." Gu Tong was also taking good care of her little husband.
Ivan had never left Harbin, and he had never even seen live seafood before, let alone eaten it.
So he didn't know how to peel the shell at all. He tried clumsily, imitating the movements of others, but it was his first time, so he peeled it into pieces.
Gu Tong couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he snatched the shrimp from his hand.
"Thank you, you eat by yourself, I can do it myself." Ivan said in a low voice, a little reserved. He was introverted and shy, and he was at his father-in-law's house, so he felt extremely embarrassed.
Gu Tong was very overbearing, "Just eat it if I give it to you. I've already peeled it for you, so why wouldn't you eat it? Give it to me."
"Okay, I'll eat it." Ivan agreed obediently and didn't dare to refuse anymore.
He didn't care what other people thought at this moment. He was mainly afraid that she would be angry, as anger was harmful to her health.
In his heart, Gu Tong always comes first.
Mother Gu: ...
The way her daughter and her partner get along is also interesting, as if the boy and girl have been switched.
At first she was afraid that her daughter was not deeply involved and was deceived, but now that she has seen it with her own eyes, she is relieved.
Ivan is a simple person by nature, follows Gu Tong's lead, and has a good appearance. He is the type that his daughter likes.
Although he had a rough life and no background, he also had some problems with his bloodline.
But it's not a big problem for her family. The Gu family never needs their children to marry off each other. As long as they like the person and the other half has good character, that's fine.
Seeing that her younger son and daughter had found their own families and were loving each other every day, but her eldest son was still alone, she felt a little worried.
"Asheng, there's a little girl who just came to the hospital. Mom thinks she's pretty good. Would you like to meet her some other day?" Mother Gu asked tentatively.
She was either urging her son to get married or she felt sorry for the fact that her eldest son didn't have anyone who cared about him.
Gu Sheng paused as he picked up the food. A hint of darkness flashed across his lowered eyes, but he quickly concealed it. No one at the table noticed. He said in a light tone, "Okay, you arrange the time."
"Hahaha, okay, Mom will go ask Dr. Li tomorrow." Seeing that her eldest son did not refuse, Mother Gu couldn't close her mouth with a smile.
This is the first time I've seen him let go in all these years!
The mother tested it cautiously, and Gu Sheng finally agreed.
He thought he should forget the past and start a new life.
*
At night, Gu Yu held his little wife in his arms contentedly. Seeing her touching him dishonestly with her hands, he said helplessly, "My dear, you are touching me, I can't help it."
Xiuzhu had slept too much during the day and was fiddling with the man's abdominal muscles. When she heard this, she was so scared that she quickly put her hands down.
Gu Yu kissed his little wife's face fiercely, and the kiss made a crisp sound.
Does this little thing think of itself as a terrible beast?
"Oh, it's so annoying. I was washing myself and it smelled so good, but now you made my saliva all over me." Xiuzhu angrily hit the man next to her.
The more she tried to stop him from kissing Gu Yu, the more he kissed her.
The two of them were making a scene on the bed.
After calming down, Xiuzhu thought about what happened at dinner, and she asked curiously, "By the way, my eldest brother is going on a blind date. He has never been in love at his age. Could he be the one?"
The Gu family is so well off. Although Gu Sheng is not as handsome as Gu Yu, he is also a good-looking man. He holds such a high position in the army. There is really no reason for him to remain single.
She guessed that her uncle either had someone in his heart or he didn't like women and only liked men.
After several years of tacit understanding between husband and wife, Gu Yu immediately understood what was going on in his wife's head. In order to clear his elder brother's name, he explained: "There is nothing wrong with my elder brother's sexual orientation. He used to have a little childhood sweetheart. Later, the little childhood sweetheart's family fell into trouble and she even disappeared. My elder brother has been worried ever since."
Xiuzhu smelled the scent of gossip, she kissed the man next to her, and then pestered him to continue asking, "What's going on? Tell me quickly, I want to hear it."
How could Gu Yu resist his darling boy's coquettish behavior? He had no principles at all and had no problem betraying his elder brother's privacy.
He and his wife are one, and he will tell her everything he knows as long as she wants to know.
So Gu Yu told his little wife, who was lying in his arms, everything he knew about his elder brother's feelings, without any detail.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Xiuzhu was deeply saddened after hearing this. She never expected that her uncle had such a bad love history.
She sighed, "There's no news about that Gao family sister anymore? Hey, big brother is 33 years old this year, and he has been waiting since he was 20 years old. He is really infatuated!"
"So he has completely let it go now that he agrees to the blind date? Otherwise, it would be too unfair to the innocent lesbian."
Gu Yu didn't want his wife to meddle in other men's affairs, so he started to get naughty again, "Gao Jingyi hasn't shown up yet, she must have gone abroad, I don't know if my brother is infatuated with her or not, and I don't know if he can let her go.
"I only know that I am crazy about you and I will always need you for the rest of my life."
He said the last words into his little wife's ear and then kissed her on the lips.
I couldn't help it in the end.
His elder brother is so miserable, so he should be doubly happier.
Well, to be happy you have to do happy things.
…………………………………………………………………Then… again…
(Ten thousand words are omitted here, please forgive me.)
