When Gu Xi woke up, she felt even more pain in her body. She couldn't even lift her left hand that was hit, and couldn't even make any expression on her face. Gu Xi looked in the mirror and saw that half of her face was swollen and purple. She cried because of her ugliness: "Ah, so ugly, am I disfigured? They should be shot, 555..."
She washed herself slowly in the yard, crying. Every time she moved a muscle on her face, she would throb with pain. She could only brush her teeth slowly and with small movements. It was ok to wash her face with water, but she would gasp in pain when she wiped it with a towel. "He should be shot, twice."
Wang Xu came back from outside with a lot of firewood. He was shocked to see Gu Xi sitting in the yard with disheveled hair, crying silently. The scene was as miserable as it could be: "What happened? Is someone here to cause trouble again?"
Gu Xi looked up at him, expressionless: "No one came, no one cared whether I lived or died, and now I am disfigured, all for whom, I can't even have breakfast."
Wang Xu only knew how to hit people, not how to coax them. He put the firewood in the corner of the kitchen, washed his hands and walked over: "Look up and let me see your injury."
Gu Xi raised her head, still expressionless, but her eyes were full of accusations, as if Wang Xu was a heartless bastard: "The second or third day after an injury is the most painful, and the injury will show. It just looks scary, but it will heal in a few days. Don't I have two eggs warming in the pot? Eat one and rub the other on your face, the bruise will heal faster."
When Gu Xi heard that she would be fine in two days, she felt much better: "Where did you leave me so early in the morning?"
Wang Xu went to the kitchen and took out the eggs. He peeled one and put it in Gu Xi's hand: "I'm going to get some firewood from the mountain. Otherwise, how can I cook? Eat it."
The other one peeled it and wrapped it in a handkerchief to rub Gu Xi's face. Gu Xi was eating the egg in small bites when her face was touched: "Hiss, be gentle, I have to keep a blank expression today. It hurts when I move my muscles. I can't see anyone. It's too ugly. If someone comes, remind me and I will hide in the room immediately."
Wang Xu finally understood why it was so strange to see her crying silently with an expressionless face when he entered the yard just now. It turned out that she couldn't make any expression because her face hurt, and she didn't want to see people because she was afraid of being embarrassed. Otherwise, the house might have been destroyed.
"Although you were sad, you were still kind to yourself. You made yourself a glass of milk and ate a lot of cookies."
Gu Xi said without any guilt: "Then I have to be nicer to myself and supplement my nutrition so that the injury can heal faster. In addition, I have to eat some white and juicy foods these days, such as tofu, Chinese cabbage, and white radish. I can't eat soy sauce, otherwise the wound will look ugly and leave scars."
Wang Xu's hands moved gently: "You are just bruised, no wound."
Gu Xi felt that the hot egg rubbed the wound quite comfortably, the strength was just right, and it was not as swollen as before. She squinted her eyes and enjoyed it: "No matter what, I still have to pay attention."
Wang Xu looked at her squinting eyes, her little face very close to him, and she looked so unlucky and pitiful. Yesterday, when faced with danger, he still had the courage to rush forward, which shows that he is very reliable. He was full of energy as he argued with the village chief and these scoundrels.
Wang Xu just felt that his mind had been controlled by the woman in front of him. When he saw her hit her head against the table yesterday, he felt his heart stop. No one had ever made his emotions so turbulent before, and it had only been two or three days. No wonder people said women were as dangerous as tigers. Now it seemed that they were much more dangerous than tigers.
Gu Xi was so comfortable that she was about to fall asleep. She didn't care what Wang Xu was thinking. Suddenly, the courtyard door was pushed open: "Gu Xi, how are you? Why were you beaten...ah, you...you...you...in broad daylight...you kissed in the courtyard!"
Gu Xi was frightened and the wound on her face touched Wang Xu's hand holding the egg. She sat up straight suddenly. Wang Xu was close to her and was hit on the chin by her and stepped back.
Gu Xi was so angry that she was sitting there enjoying herself. Now her face and forehead hurt. "You big-headed ghost, you didn't knock on the door and you were startled. Be careful or I will ask Wang Xu to break your legs. I hit my face again. Is it more seriously injured? It's over, it's over. When will I be healed?"
Lin Ling was not afraid that she would really break her legs, so she ran over and held Gu Xi's face: "Why does your face look so scary? It's not good to have fair skin. It's especially ugly when it's injured."
Gu Xi was completely broken by the words "scary" and "ugly" on the left and right. "Is it really ugly?"
Lin Ling quickly comforted her: "You are a little uglier than you used to be, but in this village, you are still a village beauty. No, I will ask Aunt Chen to find a way to buy you an old hen and stew chicken soup for you to replenish your body."
Wang Xu said silently: "No, she said that she can only eat tofu, cabbage, and radish to heal her wounds these days. Eating anything else will make her ugly and will harm her."
Lin Ling thought for a moment after hearing this and said, "Although I don't agree, you are beautiful and you are right. I will give you some supplements when you are completely well. I won't change the old hen for now."
Gu Xi. . . . .
Feeling that Wang Xu did it on purpose, I glanced at him out of the corner of my eye, but his expression was still as dead as before, and there was no evidence.
I had just said these words, and now I felt a little regretful. I drank the milk in the cup in a frustrated manner.
Lin Ling asked about what happened again, scolded this group of scoundrels for 3 minutes, and praised Gu Xi for her wisdom and bravery for 5 minutes. The conversation between the sisters then came to the point where she showed off how good Aunt Chen was to her and treated her like her own daughter.
Gu Xi couldn't give in either, and she became increasingly outrageous as she spoke: "Wang Xu also treats me as his own daughter, and he just rubbed my wounds. It's all your fault for disturbing me."
Wang Xu paused while listening in the kitchen and shook his head helplessly: "You don't understand."
Lin Ling deliberately lowered her voice: "Were you rubbing your wounds? I thought you two were kissing when I came in. You must not fall in love. You are so beautiful, you must be more selective. Besides, Wang Xu is from the countryside, and you will have to go back to the city in the future. If you find a rural partner, it will be difficult to go back. This is what my family told me before I went to the countryside."
Seeing that she had gone so far, Gu Xi said, "I know, my brother repeatedly warned me not to find a partner when I was still young, otherwise he would come to the village and break my legs and carry me back."
Seeing that she understood, Lin Ling did not say much. "You have only been here for two days, it is too early to talk about this. I have heard a lot of gossip in the village these two days. Some old educated youth saw that there was no hope of returning to the city and could not earn many work points. Their lives in the educated youth camp were even more miserable than the villagers, so they married villagers. The wife of the production team leader was one of the first educated youths who went to the countryside. She came from Suzhou. Now she does nothing and stays at home, eating and being lazy. The aunties in the village despise her to death. They say that she is useless except for her beauty."
Gu Xi cast an approving look at Lin Ling: "You are great, Lin Ling. You have integrated into the group so quickly. I am proud of you. From now on, my source of gossip will depend on you. Don't forget me when you become rich and powerful."
