Correct Posture For Redemption - Chapter 25
The two did not move that night, but stayed in the house for the last night.
Since Si Jingrou has already left, it stands to reason that the two of them shouldn’t sleep together anymore.
But today, Si Xianchun was very emotional, and he was very uneasy, and his eyes were a little swollen from crying.
Moreover, the charcoal fire and pots next door have been taken away, so there is no need for Gu Miru to go to the next door to freeze for a night, and let Si Xianchun toss and turn in anxiety.
So the two of them slept together that night, and they still slept on the other side as if they were separated by the Chu River and the Han Realm.
They each rolled themselves into a roll, and Gu Miru was about to feel sleepy when she felt Si Xianchun turn around and look at her.
Si Xianchun slept with his head in it most of the time, this time he turned his head towards Gu Miru’s direction, didn’t sleep, stared at Gu Miru like that night.
Gu Miru was almost stared out of the psychological shadow by him.
She looked at Si Xianchun and asked, “What are you doing? Go to bed now. Zhang Qian and Xu Sihui will drive to pick us up tomorrow morning.”
After Gu Miru finished speaking, she closed her eyes, then opened them again after a while, and sure enough, she met Si Xianchun’s eyes again.
Gu Miru: “…do you want to chat?”
Si Xianchun shook his head.
Gu Miru closed her eyes again.
After a while, I couldn’t stand it anymore and opened it again, and said fiercely, “I’ll knock you unconscious if you look at me again!”
Si Xianchun quickly closed his eyes.
This time he didn’t open it again, but tonight he didn’t turn back into the bed either, he kept facing Gu Miru’s direction, and even when he was bowing, he was facing her like a little shrimp.
Silent all night.
The next morning, the seventh day of the second lunar month, only one month and four days had passed since Gu Miru crossed over.
Si Xianchun woke up earlier than Gu Miru this morning. After waking up, he actually got up first. While trying to get past Gu Miru, Gu Miru woke up.
“Wake up so early? You don’t have to get up so early today. I asked Zhang Qian and Xu Si to order a suit for you. They said that they can only be picked up at noon.”
“When they get the clothes back, they’ll hire a carriage to pick us up.”
Gu Miru rubbed her eyes and said to Si Xianchun, “You can sleep for a while, and I’ll get up and bake some omelettes for the two of us.”
Gu Miru got up and tried to push Si Xianchun back, but Si Xianchun propped up on the bed and did not fall down.
Instead, he offered: “I’ll go make omelettes with you.”
Gu Miru looked at him in surprise, just woke up, her eyes were still a little blurry, and she squinted slightly.
Si Xianchun said, “I don’t know how to make pancakes.”
“But I can add firewood to you.” Si Xianchun said and began to put his head down and put on his shoes.
He was already stable, and after the deep scar on the ankle was covered by the tabi, it didn’t feel any pain when it hit the outside of the scar.
Si Xianchun lowered his head and said, “When I was young… I would add firewood to my mother.”
“My mother always cooks a lot of supplements when my father goes to him, and I’m very good at mastering the heat.”
Gu Miru readily agreed, Si Xianchun’s initiative was a very good phenomenon.
Whether it’s taking the initiative to mention the past, or taking the initiative to share something.
And if the pancakes are full of noodles, it is indeed a little troublesome to add firewood.
After the two got up and washed up, they helped each other to the kitchen.
Everything in the kitchen was almost moved. Gu Miru thought about having some cakes this morning, so yesterday she only left the ingredients for what she was going to do today.
The noodles in the basin are only enough for two people to eat a meal. They are like a young couple who have not eaten their last meal, and have been walking around the pot table for a while.
Then I ate the fragrant omelette and Gu Miru’s soup with potatoes.
When Gu Miru was making something, Si Xianchun pulled a small stool and sat at the door of the stove, and was very skilled in sending firewood inside.
He really mastered the heat very well. It looks like he has done this kind of thing before. If there is relatively thick firewood, he will slap it with his knees and then break it.
Gu Miru’s cake was golden on both sides but not one of them was mushy.
After the two made it, they didn’t take the cake into the house, but Gu Miru wiped the side of the stove with a rag, washed the cauldron, and put some firewood on the ground to let the cauldron cover the entire kitchen. All toasted.
Then the two of them ate next to the stove.
They were all sweaty.
Probably because Si Xianchun also participated in the cooking process today, so Si Xianchun ate a lot.
When he ate the fifth cake, Gu Miru stopped him.
“You’re almost at your limit, and you probably haven’t felt the support yet because you’re eating too fast.”
“If you eat it again and mix it with your half bowl of soup, you might get a stomach ache later.”
Si Xianchun looked at Gu Miru, licked his oily lips, and said slowly, “You seem to know me better than me.”
In fact, this is not what Si Xianchun wanted to say.
Si Xianchun wanted to ask Gu Miru, “Who are you, where are you from, and why are you here?”
Si Xianchun was humble, and he was never a selfish person.
He wouldn’t think that Gu Miru came for him, but if she didn’t come for him, why would she stay by his side like this?
Why treat him so well, why pull him out of hell.
But Si Xianchun thought about it, but he still didn’t dare to ask.
When he was young, his mother read him a book of words. In the book, there was a man who could not marry a wife.
One day, a young and beautiful woman suddenly came to the house.
This woman cooks and does laundry for the man all day long, talks to his husband and wife at night, and is considerate and gentle.
Just never go out during the day.
The man was overjoyed at first, wishing to hide in the house with the woman all day, and rushing home after work every day.
Although the two were not officially married, they had done everything. The woman even became pregnant with his child.
But after a long time, the man began to doubt the woman’s life experience and began to ask the woman to the bottom of it.
He tried to take his friend home, tried to tell his friend what a virtuous and beautiful wife he had picked up.
But every time he brings his friends home, his wife is not at home. Although there are traces of two people’s lives at home, the man has become the laughing stock of his friends.
Finally, the man couldn’t help but strongly doubt the woman. When the light came on one day, he blindfolded the woman and tricked her out of the door.
The woman screamed with the morning sun, and then dissipated in his arms.
Since then, the man has no children and no wife. He has become a lunatic and a beggar.
Si Xianchun felt like that man now.
But he will never make the same mistake as that man, he will not try to pull his wife “under the light of the sky”.
Si Xianchun would not ask her where she came from. If the woman really came for him, he would be willing to be a man who knew nothing for the rest of his life.
Even if he couldn’t tell anyone about his wife’s existence, even if he knew clearly that his wife… was wrong.
But Si Xianchun is willing to continue like this.
Of course, unlike in the book, his wife goes out early every day and returns late, and still makes money… On the contrary, it is his husband who is timid and does not see the sun.
In the end, Si Xianchun was very obedient and did not eat the fifth cake, but drank the remaining soup in the bowl.
After eating, Gu Miru wiped her mouth with the handkerchief, and then took another to wipe Si Xianchun’s mouth habitually.
With her hand stretched halfway, Gu Miru paused again, put the handkerchief next to Si Xianchun’s hand and said to him, “Wipe your mouth.”
Gu Miru never thought about a problem before, because she didn’t take Si Xianchun as a normal man at all.
But last night, Si Xianchun had been sleeping with her, and today he naturally offered to cook with her.
Gu Miru was very keenly aware that something was wrong.
Gu Miru knew that Si Xianchun might not know what emotion was, and Si Xianchun might not have feelings for her either.
Who would fall in love with someone who abused them? This is the reason why Gu Miru has never had any scruples about Si Xianchun.
But last night, Si Xianchun walked into the room by himself, and then walked out hand in hand with her.
This morning’s performance should be Si Xianchun’s complete farewell to the past.
Gu Miru couldn’t dig out Si Xianchun’s head, and the system could only detect his mood swings.
Gu Miru didn’t want Si Xianchun to rely too much on her, at least from now on, she should let Si Xianchun get used to being independent.
Gu Miru often showed a little closeness to him before, because Gu Miru didn’t think about anything and her thoughts were very pure.
It was also because Gu Miru knew that the best way to appease someone was to touch them. During Si Xianchun’s recovery period, Gu Miru also arranged for Cuilian to touch him, such as taking care of his daily life.
But obviously, it was easier for Si Xianchun and Gu Miru to establish a relationship than with Cuilian.
That’s weird.
It was clear that Gu Miru was the perpetrator and Si Xianchun was the victim. It should be the most difficult for him to establish a relationship with himself.
But now it’s the other way around.
Gu Miru could see relaxation, trust, and other things that Gu Miru couldn’t understand in his eyes.
And Gu Miru was very sure that Si Xianchun did not have Stockholm, and he was not sick.
This kind of change is good, so while Gu Miru encourages him, he prepares to slowly distance himself from his trust.
Si Xianchun stretched out his face, but Gu Miru didn’t wipe his mouth, but put the handkerchief on the pot table.
Si Xianchun paused for a while, then raised his hand to grab the handkerchief and wiped his mouth, his eyes lowered and his expression calm.
“I’ll draw you an eyebrow.” Gu Miru said to Si Xianchun, “I’ve always wanted to draw you an eyebrow, but you look really good, and now there’s a lot more flesh on your cheeks. .”
As Gu Miru said that, she pulled out a firewood stick from the burnt stove, blew it, and rubbed it next to the stove.
Then he folded it into small pieces, held it in his hand and said to Si Xianchun, “Your eyes are beautiful and your hair is smooth, but your eyebrows are white, and you don’t look very energetic.”
“Draw your eyebrows today, and I’ll introduce you to Sister Cui Cui later. Sister Cui Cui is very nice. She will definitely like you very much.”
This is the first time in his life that Si Xianchun has heard someone praise him for his good looks.
He stared blankly at Gu Miru, pursed his lips for a long time, and nodded slightly.
Gu Miru pinched the half-burned branch and approached Si Xianchun’s eyebrows…
Si Xianchun’s eyebrows are actually very good-looking, and he has many eyebrows, and the eyebrows are also slightly raised, just need to trace along the original outline.
Gu Miru squeezed his chin lightly with one hand, fixing his face so that he wouldn’t move, while the other hand slowly aimed at his brow.
After tracing one side, Gu Miru changed the branch and continued tracing the other side.
With the eyebrows drawn on both sides, Si Xianchun looked completely reborn.
Because of his black eyebrows, he felt a lot better at once.
Gu Miru stared at it for a while, then tutted softly.
Si Xianchun thought it was not good-looking, but Gu Miru put a bowl of water in a big bowl and brought it to Si Xianchun smoothly.
Show him what he looks like.
Si Xianchun was stunned after reading it.
In fact, it’s not a big change. It’s the eyebrows, like hairstyles, a little change in the whole person’s mental outlook will be completely different.
Gu Miru reached out and touched Si Xianchun’s hair again, then thought about it and said, “Well, Zhang Qian and Xu Si won’t be here for a while anyway, so I’ll curl your hair for you.”
“What?” Si Xianchun asked.
Gu Miru reached out and touched Si Xianchun’s hair and said, “When I’m going to introduce you to Sister Cuicui, tell him that you are from Cheyueguo.”
“What… Che Yue Guo?”
“It’s a country that is far, far away from this country.” Gu Miru said: “It’s very far away, separated by mountains and seas, and almost no ships can get there.”
“But it does exist in this world.”
“Everyone in that country has white hair and blue eyes, just like you.”
It’s just that you are sick and those people are born.
When Gu Miru watched the world go, she looked at the world map. The heroine of this book went to that country later, thinking of her brother who died early and wept bitterly.
This is a cruel point in the plot, but it is just right to take advantage of it at this time.
“How could there be someone like me in this world? I am a strange disease…”
Si Xianchun reached out and touched his hair, looking a little sad.
Gu Miru said: “You really have a strange disease. This disease should be inborn, it is just like this.”
“I don’t know why you have this condition when you are old, but you have this kind of disease, and you look similar to people in Cheyueguo after you get sick.”
“When I introduced you to others, I was going to tell them that you have some Cheyueguo blood.”
“That is to say, your deceased mother had the blood of Cheyueguo, so you look like someone from Cheyueguo.”
“But people in Cheyue Country have curly hair, so I’m going to curl your hair.”
“…How?” Si Xianchun felt that he could no longer understand what Gu Miru said.
He said: “My mother is a native of Xunzhou City…”
This obvious lie is too easy to be exposed.
Gu Miru saw that he lowered his eyes and knew what he was thinking.
Gu Miru said: “Anyway, your mother has passed away, and the Si family doesn’t bother to care about you at all. They can’t specifically come out and talk about your mother’s origin.”
Moreover, this thing, like the grass on the wall, always falls in whichever direction it is guided.
When Si Xianchun can stand upright one day, no one will care about his background.
At that time, his strange appearance will become his symbol. At that time, even if someone jumped out and said that Si Xianchun’s mother did not have any blood from the country of Cheyue. People in this world won’t believe it either.
If you don’t have that kind of blood, why do you grow up like this?
At that time, who will be the one who lies.
And people are like this, and they have some strong feelings. As long as you stand tall enough, someone will help you lift up your background.
Just like Gu Miru’s previous world of immortality, the villain was obviously a pheasant, but because he was strong enough, he was blown into a phoenix in the end.
“You don’t need to understand now.” Gu Miru looked at Si Xianchun’s confused expression and said with a chuckle, “Anyway, just listen to me.”
Si Xianchun only nodded this time, and then he watched Gu Miru set the pot on fire again.
The end of the iron burning stick was also stuffed into the stove to burn.
I made another bucket of water and put it there, and when the iron rod was all red, I took it out and put it in the bucket.
“呲la” sounded, and the red-hot iron rod was in the bucket, making some of the water boil.
Gu Miru asked Si Xianchun to sit with her back to her, took apart his hair and divided it into several sections, then took out the iron rod, and when it was dry, it became hot again, and grabbed Si Xianchun’s hair. Hair curled up.
It didn’t take long for Si Xianchun to smell a burning smell on his head.
Gu Miru hurriedly blew it, then put the stick into the stove to burn it, and repeated the previous action after burning it.
After Gu Miru was completely done, she rearranged Si Xianchun’s hairstyle again, and braided the top half, leaving the bottom half full of curly long hair.
In the end, Gu Miru turned Si Xianchun over and smiled at him.
“If you go out like this, no one will think you are a monster.”
Gu Miru pointed at the bowl of water that Si Xianchun looked at her eyebrows before, and said to Si Xianchun, “I just roughed it up for you today, when I have time to do it for you, then teach you how to do it.”
“In the future, you will show people this face. I guarantee that everyone will believe that you have the blood of Cheyueguo.”
Si Xianchun put his head close to the water basin, and then stayed there for a long time.
The figure reflected in the water basin shook slightly, but Si Xianchun could hardly recognize himself.
He reached out and touched his hair, wondering why his hair was suddenly curled up.
Si Xianchun looked at Gu Miru in shock, he couldn’t believe it, and he had to believe it.
Gu Miru used a burning stick and some half-burned branches to turn him into a person from another country.
Seeing that his eye circles were red again, Gu Miru said quickly, “Don’t cry, I forgot to tell you that a scalded roll like this cannot be soaked in water.”
“I’ll teach you to curl your hair with a towel at night, and your hair will naturally be curled the next morning after sleeping one night.”
“But both of them can’t get wet, so you can’t go out in the rain with the roll up, and try not to run outside in wet weather.”
Gu Miru patted Si Xianchun’s curly hair again and said, “This way you can always be an exotic beauty!”
Si Xianchun was deceived by Gu Miru, even if he shed tears, it was impossible for him to straighten his hair.
But he really refrained from crying.
After the two of them finished, they cleaned up the stove and went back to the house, and started to pack up the last thing.
About noon, Zhang Qian and Xu Si came in a carriage.
Gu Miru took the clothes he made for Si Xianchun and handed them to Si Xianchun for him to wear.
It is a pure white jacket with gold edging, and the belt is decorated with flowers and embroidered butterflies, which is very gorgeous.
Si Xianchun, who is tall and has long legs, had always shrunk before, but since Gu Miru didn’t let him shrink, now even with crutches, his back is straight.
This outfit was on him, and when he came out of the bathroom, Gu Miru whistled.
She said to Si Xianchun, “If you look like this now, if you go around the imperial city, you can pretend to be a foreign prince.”
Si Xianchun held a cane in his hand, and walked towards Gu Miru step by step, the sky in his eyes was clear, blue sea and blue sky.
He also saw his appearance in the bathroom, Si Xianchun never knew that he could look like this too.
But Gu Miru finally handed him a hat and told Si Xianchun, “Don’t be too nervous, I won’t immediately drag you to the street and tell everyone about your bloodline.”
“I know you can’t adapt to other people’s eyes at first, that’s okay, you just wear this hood.”
The cap and the robe are of the same material, and the drapery is also rolled with gold edging, which can block the wind at the side, but the place where the front overlaps is made of yarn.
This ensures that Si Xianchun is wearing the hood and can see outside through the hood.
And occasionally, the cold wind cunningly crawled in and lifted the corner of the hood, and you could see the beautiful woman’s chin, plump lips, and long curly hair.
The hazy appearance is even more prying, Gu Mi can imagine that Si Xianchun stops in his shop like this, and it won’t take long for those who come to see him on the pretext to increase the turnover a lot.
Hmm… I want to buy some lipstick for Si Xianchun, his lips are a little too pale.
When the two of them were dressed and came out of the room, Si Xianchun didn’t need to wear a hat in front of his own people.
As a result, his outfit actually shocked Zhang Qian and Xu Si’s jaws.
Gu Miru smiled and said to them, “In the future, I can tell everyone that the young master of the Si family has no strange illness, but he has the blood of the Cheyue Kingdom.”
Zhang Qian and Xu Si nodded, Gu Miru said, “Is it good-looking?”
The two of them nodded again.
This is really good-looking, although it is not the kind of good-looking that is very common, but it is the kind of good-looking that makes people unable to move their eyes and want to keep watching.
It’s not an aesthetic in the broad sense of the world, but now no one can say that Si Xianchun is strange.
Zhang Qian and Xu Si loaded the only remaining things in the house into the carriage, and Gu Miru and Si Xianchun also got on the carriage.
The gate was locked, and the carriage began to drive towards the east end of the street, where the shop is now.
On the way, I passed the rouge shop, Gu Miru asked someone to stop, got out of the car and went inside to pick and choose, and finally bought a little eyebrow powder, and came back with the kind of blush made by mashing petals in this world. ,
Then he dressed up Si Xianchun again in the car.
When I arrived at the shop on the east side of the street, it was noon. Although there were not many people buying meat, there were still people who came to weigh in.
As soon as the carriage arrived, Xu Lancui’s loud voice shouted at once.
“Oh, old Zhang, you come to sell meat, Xiaoru is here with her husband!”
This voice shouted, and the eyes of most people on the street were all gathered.
Gu Miru has been working on this street all day, which has already made the neighbors look tired and crooked.
Yesterday, I didn’t see anything new when I came to the door, and the people in the neighborhood didn’t talk much about pork shops after dinner.
After all, no one wants to see anything kinky.
However, the young master of the Si family is indeed a mysterious figure, and the people who attended the wedding only saw it from a distance.
When I saw it, I felt strange, I felt that this person was not a normal person.
Now that he appears on the street in such an upright manner, and the neighbors passing by, don’t they want to stop and stretch their necks to look around.
Gu Miru got out of the car first, and Zhang Qian and Xu Si began to move things into the shop.
Gu Miru stood on the side of the car, brought the step stool over herself, and put it next to the car.
He knocked on the wall of the carriage and said to Si Xianchun who was inside, “It’s time to come out.”
It’s almost like welcoming a young lady who is easy to get out of the street.
Xu Lancui also came over, and the crowd gradually gathered towards this side. Si Xianchun took a few deep breaths inside and got ready.
Be prepared to be thrown away.
Then he stretched out a hand from the carriage and accurately grabbed Gu Miru’s hand.
This hand is pale and slender. The frostbite on it has been healed these days, and it is very beautiful.
What’s even more beautiful is that he rolled gold-rimmed cuffs showing cloud patterns, and then he slowly got out of the car, wearing clothes that looked like a city dignitary.
He was like a prince condescending to this little place.
The stance was so special that it lifted the appetite of everyone.
As a result, as soon as he got out of the car, he wore a hood on his head.
Everyone immediately booed, Si Xianchun paused and his hands shook, and Gu Miru held her tightly.
While rubbing the back of his hand, Gu Miru reassured: “I’m here, I’ll take you down slowly, and hold a cane in the other hand.”
“Take these spectators as trees swaying in the wind and ignore them.”
“Sister Cui Cui is waiting to greet you, Si Xianchun.” Gu Miru leaned beside him and said to him in a soft voice that only two people could hear: “As long as you take this step, From now on, the world is high and wide, and there is no place you can’t go.”
“Trust me, you are not a monster. I have never seen a son more handsome than you in this world.”
“It may take a while for them to accept, but soon you will find that there are a lot of people who like you, you are not weird, you are just special.”
Gu Miru’s soft and soft words drilled into Si Xianchun’s ears bit by bit along the curtain.
Si Xianchun’s beating heart slowly calmed down, and the flinch and fear that spread from his bones were shattered little by little by these soft words.
Si Xianchun took another deep breath, grabbed the crutches in the other hand, and propped it on the carriage of the carriage. The hand that held Gu Miru was shaking slightly, but he did not let go.
Gu Miru was also very nervous. She could actually send Si Xianchun to the house behind the store from the back door, but she had to walk from the front just to make Si Xianchun overcome his psychological obstacles.
She felt that her hands were clenched and hurt, and only heard Si Xianchun’s deep breathing.
Is it still reluctant?
In fact, it’s only been a month, and he’s already been able to do this very well.
Otherwise, let him go back first, enter from the back door, and leave a suspense…
Gu Miru was about to say, “If you are afraid, sit back and we will enter through the back door.”
He felt his hand tighten again, Si Xianchun heaved a sigh of relief, he gritted his teeth and closed his eyes, stepped directly on the step stool from the carriage, and stood on the ground in two steps.
But his veil hung from a raised thorn above the carriage’s carriage – and at last the veil was scraped off his head.
Gu Miru’s eyes widened, and she reached out to pull the hat, but it didn’t come off.
The crowd, who had been booing and talking, was silent for a while—
