Chapter 12: The Return of the Husband

Under the persuasion day after day, one day a little boy came to Chu Shishu's house and sent a letter, which was written by Gao Junyi to inform him, mentioning that he had won the list and would be back soon. Of course, this is the official letter to Gao's mother, and there is a piece of paper in the letter that is written to Chu Shishu, which is full of Gao Junyi's thoughts about her, as if she has not seen her for a day, and is full of sweet words, what is fortunate not to disgrace her life, and what is thinking about it day and night, after reading the letter, Chu Shishu only felt blushing and heartbeat, and it was very sweet. Chu Shishu, who patted his chest a few times in a row, trying to calm himself down, carefully folded the letter and took the official letter to Gao's mother, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law couldn't close their mouths with a smile, and led Chu Shishu to the temple to repay his vows on the same day.

The day after the letter arrived, there stood at the door with a dusty face, his face shining in the daylight.

"Surprised?" He asked lightly.

"I thought you wouldn't be back in a few days." Chu Shishu was dumbfounded, and rubbed her eyes several times to confirm whether she was dreaming or hallucinating.

"Because I missed you so much, I rode back on a fast horse."

Chu Shishu saw that there was a circle of black green hanging under his eyes, and asked distressedly. "You've been on the road all night?"

He sighed and said with a unique tenderness. "But as long as I can see you, it's worth everything."

Chu Shishu frowned, half blaming and half distressed, touching his black green. "You don't have to rush back for a while, the road is not easy to rush at night, what if something happens."

Gao Junyi hugged Chu Shishu with a smile and apologized. "It's my fault to make the lady worry, it's just that the lady is at home alone, I'm afraid that the lady's beauty will attract bees and butterflies, and you simply don't know how to refuse."

Chu Shishu, who was pretending to be a little angry, was coaxed by his clever mouth and couldn't hold back his seriousness, and laughed. Seeing the lady smiling, Gao Junyi picked her up at once and spun happily in the infinitely warm sunshine.

At night, Chu Shishu persuaded him to go to bed quickly, it was already tiring to hurry, not to mention the tiredness of a sleepless night, so he really should have a good rest. Gao Junyi nodded, nodded with a look of approval, but took advantage of his unpreparedness to drop Chu Shishu on the bed, and refused to let Chu Shishu leave.

Chu Shishu couldn't, so he had to sleep together, until there was an even breathing sound in his ears, Chu Shishu turned around, saw his calm sleeping face, and felt a heavy sense of satisfaction in his heart, and couldn't help but lean up and peck lightly, and gently escaped from Gao Junyi's warm embrace.

After sorting out her clothes, she sneaked out of the house and found the painter ghost wandering on the street, and she talked about the theory of letting go of attachment and being a new person.

Because the painted skin ghost has not committed a crime recently, the bold people are no longer restrained, and there are a few people on the street. But the more they relaxed their vigilance, the more worried Chu Shishu became.

The painted skin ghost is full of helplessness, love and hate should always be clear, but Chu Shishu's approach obviously makes her love and hate, although she is a demon who is very angry and endangers the world everywhere, but this is the only one she has been wandering for so many years to persuade her to let go of hatred, not for the dead soul, but for the obsessed self.

So she didn't make a move on the men, nor did she make a move on Chu Shishu. She thought that she could really let go of her hatred and that she could really be crossed.

The turning point came three days later, when another corpse appeared in the town, also by disembowelment.

Chu Shishu was furious and asked her why she wanted to go back to her old ways. Can...... This man really wasn't killed for himself.

"Chu Shishu, I really didn't kill this person! Do you believe me or not? ”

"If you didn't kill it, then who killed it?" Chu Shishu's rhetorical question seemed like she should have killed this man.

The painter was angry and said angrily: "What if I really killed it? If you have the ability, come and kill me! ”

With that, the painted skin ghost turned and left, leaving the gloomy Chu Shishu standing alone in the silent street.

But the situation is still bad, the skin ghost is still wandering, Chu Shishu is still following behind, although it was also this pattern before, but she is very sensitive like a hedgehog at the moment, the skin ghost peeled off his human skin to reveal the gloomy skeleton, and scolded: "Do you follow me to guard me and kill other men or find an opportunity to get rid of me and help the righteous path!"

Chu Shishu's helpless appearance fell into the eyes of the painter, and the painter left with a sneer.

Chu Shishu wanted to say something, but he was unable to say it, but he no longer followed the skin ghost. The street returned to its deserted appearance, the breeze rolled up the yellow paper in the air, Chu Shishu saw the shadow of a cat magnified countless times reflected on the wall at the corner, the cat raised its legs and rubbed its ears, and made a laughing "meow".

Chu Shishu didn't have the heart to think about it at the moment, and after walking around the town, he returned home and shrank in Gao Junyi's arms tiredly.

The skin ghost didn't know, that rhetorical question, in fact, Chu Shishu had already believed that the person was not killed by the skin ghost, but she didn't know who the suspected murderer was, so she asked this question.

But the skin ghost has been bullied since he was a child, and he is very sensitive to ordinary people, but he only thinks that Chu Shishu doesn't believe her and arrogantly rejects people thousands of miles away. She was angry, she scolded Chu Shishu angrily, it was just because she valued Chu Shishu, and in her heart, Chu Shishu was not an outsider. She doesn't need to doubt, she doesn't need to be uncertain, all she needs is Chu Shishu's affirmation, a belief. Chu Shishu didn't understand clearly, and the painted skin ghost refused to believe it, so the misunderstanding was added to the two of them.

The next day, Gao Junyi was surprised to see Chu Shishu, who was rarely in bed. Seeing her frowning in her sleep, her face was full of sadness, and she touched her eyebrows and eyes lightly in distress.

Chu Shishu seemed to have dreamed of something, and opened his eyes in fright, his eyes were full of complicated feelings that Gao Junyi couldn't understand.

His inky eyes were half surprised and half distressed, he reached out and grabbed Chu Shishu's shoulder, and gently rubbed his chin against Chu Shishu's head, like a child's tone. "What's wrong, what's the nightmare?"

"I'm dreaming of something that wasn't so good."

"It's all in the past. From now on, I will always be with you......"

Chu Shishu brushed his hair and showed a gentle and comfortable smile. "That's what you promised me."

Gao Junyi raised his eyebrows and doted on the tip of her small nose. "That's natural, the lady is in need, and the husband is on call!"

During the day, he would accompany his wife down the mountain to do such a trivial matter as buying vegetables, even if he was disgusted by other men, he was unlearned, unskilled, and degenerate and gentle, he just smiled at the corner of his mouth, noncommittal, firmly held Chu Shishu's hand, and declared it in a disdainful tone. "My lady goes in and out of the dust and smoke for me, cooks for me, and I don't even do the little thing of buying vegetables, isn't it unkind and wolf-hearted!"

So Gao Junyi became a good man and husband despised by men and admired by women.

When the arrival of the imperial list was announced, Gao Junyi was still smiling and holding Chu Shishu's hand to accompany her to watch the food and bargain. After receiving the holy decree, Gao Junyi squinted at the big men chewing their tongues beside him and suddenly fell silent, holding Chu Shishu's hand again, carrying a basket of groceries, and swaggering around in front of them.

It's not that he didn't see Chu Shishu's embarrassed face, and it's not that he didn't know that Chu Shishu felt sorry for him when he was slandered and slandered by others, and she flinched and wanted to let go of her hand.

But he held it tighter. This is the wife he put on the tip of his heart, and he said that he wants to give her a happy life. It's just the gossip of these idlers, he has to let go of Chu Shishu's hand, and how he will escort Chu Shishu in the wind and waves in the future.

The hands he held were his promises, and they were also the trust he could give Chu Shishu.

Two people who are so affectionate, although there are some small quarrels, but on the whole, their marriage is almost perfect.

Today, Chu Shishu and Gao Junyi picked up the vegetables they should buy in the market again, and said that they wanted to make a winter melon cup at night.

It's her!!

Chu Shishu was a little ruthless for a moment, and his hands clenched unconsciously.

"Lady...... Wife? Gao Junyi saw that Chu Shishu's face turned pale instantly, and saw her staring at a place and losing her mind, so he felt strange in his heart, so he called out several times.

"Lady !!"

Chu Shishu woke up suddenly, looked at Gao Junyi, who was anxious on the side, in shock, and let out an out-of-focus "ah".

"What's wrong with you, lady, aren't you feeling well? How did you sweat so much. ”

Gao Junyi asked worriedly, pinched his sleeve and carefully wiped the sweat beads on her forehead.

Chu Shishu didn't look over again, it was already empty, and there were no playful eyes. She wiped her forehead indiscriminately, only to realize that she was unconsciously breaking out in a cold sweat.

"Lady, I see that your face is not good, let's go back, so that you can rest."

Chu Shishu agreed indiscriminately, but her heart seemed to have been punctured into a hole, and all the uneasiness escaped from the hole, making her feel as if she had fallen into the deep sea.

Did you see it wrong? Still is...... She's really coming over again.
