The early morning mist enveloped Huangcao Village, and before the shadow of death was dissipated, the village was suffocatingly quiet.
This kind of environment is most likely to cause people to have wild thoughts, especially when they think they are going to die.
Liu Yue'e lay quietly on the bed, covered with a thin blanket. In the middle of the night, she suddenly felt a headache and felt cold all over. Thinking of the symptoms described by Shen Kuo, she thought she had been infected with smallpox.
The terrifying faces in the quarantine area were still in front of her. Thinking that she would become like that, she felt despair from the bottom of her heart. Taking a look at Chen Ke, who was still focused on discussing with Shen Kuo and unaware of his own situation,
Liu Yue'e felt sad and quietly left the main hall.
When she returned to the room prepared for herself in the cottage, she felt her headache getting worse, but she didn't even have a drink of boiled water. She had to lie down, collect her thoughts, and think about whether she was really going to die.
If he died, his grandfather and grandma would definitely be heartbroken, but they would be even more heartbroken if they saw him as a human and a ghost, so he had to instruct that cruel wolf to never let them know about his death.
...Forget it, don't see him anymore, I hate him so much, let's leave him a note. Liu Yue'e tried to stand up, but her hands and feet were weak, she had a splitting headache, and she couldn't even get up. Tears fell down at that moment...
Wow, smallpox is really severe, how come you don’t even have the energy to seek death?
Under the threat of death, Liu Yue'e took off her strong mask and cried helplessly like a helpless child. As she cried, she fell asleep in a daze.
She didn't know how long she had slept, but she felt someone touching her arm. Then there was a cold object pressing on her forehead. Well, she finally felt better... Even though she was in a state of chaos, the girl's instinct allowed her to force herself to open her eyes.
With my eyes open, I saw the 'cruel wolf' wringing out a piece of towel and replacing the piece on his forehead.
"Get out quickly..." She didn't want him to see her ghostly appearance, which was Liu Yue'e's first thought.
Unfortunately, the voice was too weak and Chen Ke didn't hear it clearly. He asked with concern: "What do you want?"
"Get out of here..." Liu Yue'e cried out, "Don't you want me to die? Are you pretending to be a good person again?"
"I want you to die, what are you talking about?" Chen Ke asked strangely: "We don't have any deep hatred, right?"
"Why not..." Liu Yue'e whispered: "I slapped you once in Tianyinshuixie. You have a heart as small as a needle's nose. You must still hold a grudge..."
"Hey, I would have forgotten if you didn't tell me." Chen Ke smiled bitterly and said, "You hit me every once in a while until my nose was bruised and my face was swollen. That slap is nothing."
"Look, let me tell you..." Liu Yue'e started crying and said, "You must hate me to death..."
"What are you thinking about?" Chen Ke spat, reached out from the small charcoal stove beside the bed, picked up the medicine jar, poured medicine into the bowl, and said: "If I were really angry, I would have driven you back to Bianliang.
If you go, how can I keep you tied to my belt all day long?"
"Nonsense..." Liu Yue'e suddenly said with a burning face: "What pants, waistband... what a gangster."
"Hehe. That's the metaphor." Chen Ke said with a smile: "Stop thinking nonsense. You need to rest now. Come on, take the medicine and have a good sleep. Wrap it up."
"You don't need to comfort me anymore..." Liu Yue'e said sadly, "I know there is no cure for my disease..."
"Ah?" Chen Ke widened his eyes and said, "Who did you listen to?"
"It's not like I'm not around when you talk to Mr. Shen..." Liu Yue'e shed tears as she spoke, looking at Chen Ke with hazy eyes: "You don't need to comfort me, I have accepted the reality. I just want to ask you three things.
,Is it ok?"
"Uh..." Chen Ke touched his chin. He hesitated and said, "Tell me."
"The first thing is, kill me before I am disfigured." Liu Yue'e said quietly: "I don't want to become like those people, and I don't want you to have nightmares when you think of me in the future."
"Hey..." Chen Ke touched his chin again and said, "Where's the second one?"
"Bury me anywhere. No need to erect a monument. Don't tell my grandparents about my death. They are old and can't bear it." Liu Yue'e's tears had already soaked half of her clothes, and she cried like
The child who lost his father was so sad: "Oh, grandpa, I don't dare anymore..."
"What about the third thing?" Chen Ke asked again after helping her stop crying.
"The third thing..." Liu Yue'e raised her head. She did not tie her hair as usual. Her hair was wavy like it had been permed due to being tied for a long time. It was slightly messy and scattered around her shoulders. It looked like her face.
A touch of light red appeared, showing an amazing femininity. She looked at Chen Ke with fixed eyes and said in a voice like a mosquito: "Can you hug me..."
"What?" Chen Ke's eyes widened.
"Forget it if you didn't hear it..." Liu Yue'e closed her eyes and turned her head to the wall. Suddenly she felt a gust of wind behind her, and then it seemed like she was leaning against a mountain... Chen Ke also leaned on the bed and hugged him from behind with his arms around him.
she.
Although she was separated by a thick winter coat, Liu Yue'e's face suddenly burned, and her heart was like a deer, and she was in a state of confusion. At one moment she felt sorry for Su Xiaomei, and at the other she cursed herself for being too mean. He bullied me, hurt me, and ruined me.
He took away my... first kiss, and he always touched me. I should hate him, so why would I make such a request?
In a panic, she wanted to break free, but was unable to break free. The struggle in Chen Ke's arms only intensified the friction between the two, making her whole body hot and soft. Those messy thoughts also melted into Chen Ke's passionate embrace.
...Forget it, I am about to die, so what if I act randomly once?
She relaxed her heart and enjoyed this rare hug almost greedily.
Chen Ke was the class leader in Fengyue and knew that silence was better than sound at this time. The less everyone spoke, the better the effect would be. So he kept silent and just held her tightly.
Snuggled tightly in Chen Ke's arms, Liu Yue'e felt extremely safe and comfortable. She went to so many places, trying to find a place where she could feel at ease and live forever, but she could never find it. It turned out that,
It's here...
Half asleep, she murmured: "I know that I have had a bad temper since I was a child. I only know how to wield a knife and a gun. I don't know how to play chess, calligraphy or painting. But I can change it. I can restrain my temper. I can lose my fists."
, I will learn to embroider and cook..." Chen Ke gently stroked her hair, rubbed her hot pink face with his cheek, and listened quietly to her pouring out her deeply buried heart: "Oh, oh, I'm not a mother.
Tiger, I have always dreamed of having a husband who would marry me home on a white horse and give him a bunch of fat babies, woo woo..."
This woman is completely opposite to the younger sister. The younger sister looks weak and does not fight for anything, but she is very clear-minded and dares to express herself at critical moments. Liu Yue'e seems to be strong, but in fact she can't hide her inferiority and cannot express herself.
I would only bury my thoughts deeply. If it weren't for this chance coincidence, I would never hear her voice in my life...
"If you hadn't been engaged to my little sister, would you have wanted me in the first place?" Yue'e finally asked the deepest question in her heart.
"Of course." Chen Ke said without hesitation: "Besides, it's not like my little sister and you can't coexist. I plan to marry you both..."
"Nonsense to make me happy," Liu Yue'e smiled shyly. She leaned into Chen Ke's arms and said softly, "But I'm still very happy."
"How could I lie?" Chen Ke smiled and said, "We never lie, you should know that."
"Even if I don't care, my grandfather will be mad." Liu Yue'e shook her head and smiled.
"Of course I'm not asking you to be my concubine." Chen Ke said with a smile: "If I ask the direct granddaughter of the Liu family in Hedong to be my concubine, wouldn't I make everyone in the world hate me?" As he spoke, his voice deepened and he whispered: "Yue'e, you
Didn’t you keep asking me what the hell you were planning on by fooling around in Dali, deceiving the Duan family, looking for copper mines all over the world, and building the Hongshui River at your own expense? I’ll tell you now, it’s for you!”
"Me?" Liu Yue'e said blankly: "What does it have to do with me? It's just for the sake of Princess Miaoxiang."
"Hey, can she compete with you? We were just acting on occasion." Chen Ke smiled bitterly and said: "To tell you the truth, I have an agreement with the official family..." He then told Zhao Zhen about the incident at Chen Xiliang's wedding banquet.
What he said was relayed to Liu Yue'e, saying: "The officials promised that as long as I made an extraordinary contribution, they would make an exception and grant me a marriage... I thought about dedicating the four thousand miles of Dali to the officials.
Family, is it considered a meritorious service? If that’s not enough, you can also solve the money shortage for the Song Dynasty, right?"
He talked to himself for a while, but there was no movement from Liu Yue'e. Just when he wanted to see if she was asleep, he saw her turning around, hugging his neck tightly, and bursting into tears.
stand up.
"Don't cry, don't cry..." Chen Ke patted her shoulder and comforted her softly.
"Uuwu, you're not just talking nonsense to comfort me, are you?" Liu Yue'e asked while wiping her tears on him.
"Nonsense, it's not like you don't know my ambitions. I just want to live my life comfortably," Chen Ke said with a bitter smile: "If it weren't for the official family to break an unprecedented precedent in a century, why would I bother to do so?
Such a big risk, so much suffering? It would be great to be my romantic leader in the capital city, why bother to come to the southwest to pick stones?"
"You have a conscience..." Liu Yue'e said, her crying stopped for a moment, and then she cried even louder: "But I'm going to die, so you don't have to be so tired. Just put a monument on my grave and write 'Dead Wife'
Liu Yue'e', I'm content..."
When he heard the words "Dead Wife Liu Yue'e", Chen Ke finally couldn't hold back and burst into laughter.
