Chapter 11: Not Afraid of Exposure
Gu Jiaojiao listened to the man babble on and on, every word he said was nonsense... She really wanted to slap him.
I have lived in this world for twenty-eight years, but I didn’t live in the eighties.
"Are you done?" Gu Jiaojiao asked patiently.
"Well, this is roughly how the human world is. Do you understand?"
"Old... How could I not understand? During this period, there was a huge difference between urban and rural areas. People in the city ate commercial grain.
They can get various tickets every month, so food and clothing are not a problem, but people in the countryside live a hard life.
Especially workers in state-owned factories, both men and women, are definitely the most sought-after in the marriage market.”
"You know all this?"
Su Shuoci was extremely surprised. Could it be that gods could really predict the past and the future?
"What's that expression on your face? Although I've lived in this compound for eighteen years, I'm only a senior high school student. Besides, my adoptive father and my eldest brother will tell me when they go home."
"Aren't you a deity?"
"What? I am an ordinary person, I just have a master who knows the art of moving the five elements.
Have you been disappointed for too long and are dreaming of a god coming down from heaven to rescue you from the abyss?"
Su Shuoci: "..."
He lowered his proud head in shame. He had indeed been in despair for a long time and hoped that a god would fall from the sky to save him.
He also knew that Country Z had long advocated not to believe in superstition.
But he didn't know how to explain what the old man said, so he could only tell the truth.
“I just told you, I saved an old man who can predict the future.
How can I explain that several things the old man told me actually happened? "
Su Shuoci looked at Gu Jiaojiao eagerly. He was not sure whether she was a fairy or...
But he knew for sure that she was definitely not the Gu Jiaojiao he married three days ago.
No one would change so drastically. Gu Jiaojiao was just a rude and unreasonable person.
Her behavior is understandable. No one would want to waste their life's happiness on a paralyzed person.
It's not surprising that she would be so angry and yell, but she has already agreed to get married.
But on the wedding day, he was furious in public, and his anger was like the rolling water of the Yangtze River.
Wave after wave of scolding made everyone at the banquet lose their temper.
That is unreasonable and is equated with a mental illness.
Although he had only met Gu Jiaojiao twice, he was a scout and had extraordinary observation skills.
The person who woke up again was definitely not the original her. The wife in front of her was a god.
From childhood to adulthood, he has been working hard alone, and has endured all the ups and downs by himself.
I will not share it with others, because if you live a good life, others will not be happy for you.
If you are not doing well, no one will help you, so why show your scars?
At this moment, he was willing to share all the pain in his heart with the little woman in front of him and show her his bloody wounds.
When Gu Jiaojiao saw the man, her face was more horrified than death. Her broad forehead twitched in pain, her eyes were gloomy and wild, and her body was shaking with excitement.
Out of a doctor's instinct, she went up to help him feel his pulse. In her previous life, Gu Jiaojiao's grandfather was the heir of a family of medical practitioners.
Her maternal grandfather's family are all experts in traditional Chinese medicine, and she has been influenced by them since she was a child, even though she studied clinical medicine.
But she is also a top modern Chinese medicine expert. Gu Jiaojiao took out a silver needle from the space.
There is no need for disinfection. Just hold your breath, concentrate and calm down. After finding the acupuncture point, insert the needle into it steadily.
He twisted the needle tail again and the silver needle began to rotate. The expression on Su Shuoci's face became even more painful.
In fact, he shouldn't be in so much pain, but Gu Jiaojiao used heavy hands to see quick results. Although the effect was good, the taste was indeed sour.
Gu Jiaojiao was giving acupuncture while answering Su Shuoci's questions. The man was so angry that he almost fainted.
She kindly said nonsense: "Have you heard of living Buddhas? They are high monks in Buddhism.
The old man you met might be even more powerful than a great monk, no different from a deity."
Su Shuoci: ...
He didn't want to delve into it now, whether she was the fairy or her master was the fairy.
As long as she is his wife, it doesn't matter whether she is a fairy or not.
After the needle was removed, Su Shuoci's pain temporarily dissipated, and he believed even more that she was very powerful.
Gu Jiaojiao carefully felt his pulse again: "There is toxin in your body. I can't tell what the toxin is by feeling your pulse. I will use instruments to analyze it later.
Fortunately, you have no feeling below the waist, otherwise you would have died of pain. Now the poison is slowly invading your internal organs, so you need to get treatment quickly."

When Su Shuoci gave Gu Jiaojiao the acupuncture, his heart was already in turmoil, but his face showed no sign of pain.
His mood was still not calm at this time, but he was good at hiding it, and Gu Jiaojiao really couldn't see it.
"Jiaojiao, come out for dinner."
"Here it comes~" Gu Jiaojiao was a little out of breath from the acupuncture.
Father Su thought too much, "You can actually go a little slower. Your mother still hasn't cooked a dish yet."
Gu Jiaojiao: ...
He looked at Su Shuoci and asked: What does your father mean by this? Su Shuoci, who had been single for 25 years, had no idea what it meant, "Let's go out for dinner first."
In order to keep their new daughter-in-law, Su's father and mother even borrowed money to buy pork for dinner.
A bowl of twice-cooked pork with green pepper, a bowl of green vegetables, and a bowl of lean meat and egg soup.
Su's mother scooped a bowl of egg soup and placed it in front of Gu Jiaojiao, leaving only clear soup in the big bowl on the table.
Gu Jiaojiao scooped a few more spoonfuls of lean meat and eggs from the bowl in front of her and gave them to several people from the Su family.
"Dad, Mom, please eat. I just like to drink soup."
She had just eaten the food in the space and was not hungry at all, so she and Su Shuoci only drank the soup.
Su's mother glanced at her son and asked him with her eyes whether he wanted to return Jiaojiao to her.
"Dad, Mom, you've been very tired lately and need some rest. Tomorrow I'll take Jiaojiao to the store to buy meat and rice. My comrade-in-arms still owes me some money."
Su Shuoci lied, he had no money, and he wanted to take his young wife to a deserted place and ask a divine master to conjure some food for her.
This was something they had discussed in the room before. It would be disastrous if his parents knew that his wife could transform things.
"Ci, are you willing to go out?" Su's mother was so excited that she burst into tears.
"Mom, I was wrong before. I won't let you worry about me anymore. Let's eat."
"Okay, okay, his father, Chunni, you guys eat too." There were tears on Su's mother's smiling face.
The Su family's rice is cooked into a mushy consistency, but Gu Jiaojiao prefers to eat rice cooked into granules, which is fragrant and chewy.
She doesn't like eating this kind of watery rice, it feels a bit unpalatable.
But since she was new here, she just had to eat a little.
"Jiaojiao, you are too thin. You need to eat more." Su's mother sighed.
It’s not easy to find such a gentle, kind and considerate daughter-in-law.
"Mom, I'm full." Gu Jiaojiao was not afraid of revealing her flaws. She had never eaten a meal in the Su family.
