Chapter 140

After discovering the little-known secret of Lin Guoxiang, if Xiucai said he was unhappy, it must be a lie.And he was very emotional, indeed, there are so many wonders in the world, and today he found a person who is afraid of water.

Knowing the secret of Lin Guoxiang, Xiucai finally realized it, no wonder she usually stays away from things that get wet, and looks disgusted to hide whenever she can. I thought it was because she was too lazy to hide Not working, it turned out that it took a long time because I was afraid of water.Of course, the fact that she is lazy cannot be denied.

Xiucai's strange gaze made Lin Guoxiang angry, making her feel as if a rare animal in the zoo was being surrounded by curious tourists at this moment.This feeling was very bad, and it made her feel very uncomfortable, so that her whole face was flushed: "What are you looking at, have you never seen a beautiful woman?"

After she finished speaking, she lowered her head and stared at the incomparably joyful flowing stream under her feet, wishing she could make a hole in that piece of land.Although she really wanted to refute Xiucai's words, and also wanted to step over in an extremely arrogant posture to prove that Xiucai's guess was wrong, but she just couldn't muster up the courage.

Well, she admits, she's afraid of water.

Even grandpa didn't know this secret, but today this damn scholar discovered it. The secret buried in his heart for more than ten years was suddenly exposed in the air. The embarrassment, helplessness and pain made Lin Guoxiang feel like She couldn't adapt to the time, which made her suddenly have the urge to kill and silence her.

The poor scholar was still immersed in the pride of discovering Lin Guoxiang's little secret, and he didn't realize how dangerous his situation was.Even if Lin Guoxiang wouldn't really kill him to silence him, beating him up would still make him unbearable, at least his nose would be bruised and his face swollen.

But Xiucai obviously didn't have this awareness at the moment, and continued to poke Lin Guoxiang's wound: "So you are really afraid of water? I'm just... Hey, why are you crying, Guoxiang, what's wrong with you, don't cry .”

Seeing Lin Guoxiang's red eyes and tears gushing out of her sockets, Xiucai finally panicked and rushed to coax her.It was the first time in a long time that he saw Lin Guoxiang cry. When she was bullied by her family in Wangjia Village, she didn't shed a single tear. Now she actually cried?

"Guo Xiang, don't cry, can you? It's all my fault. Why don't you hit me, as long as you don't cry?" Knowing where to put it, the usually slow-moving person is now circling around Lin Guoxiang like ants on a hot pot, almost coaxing and deceiving.It's just that it doesn't look very good.

It was fine if Xiucai didn't coax her, but when Xiucai coaxed Lin Guoxiang, she felt even more aggrieved. In the end, she simply squatted down and buried her face in her knees, crying softly.She hadn't cried for so many years, but now she actually cried like this in front of a scholar. To be honest, Lin Guoxiang felt very ashamed at this moment and wished she could dig a hole to get in.But the damned scholar was still buzzing in his ears like a bee, which made Lin Guoxiang both aggrieved and embarrassed.

The scholar's words just now made Lin Guoxiang completely recall the old past that had been dusted up. At that time, she had just turned four years old and her parents had not yet divorced.She was almost regarded as invisible by her parents. Once she was really hungry at noon, so she stood on a small bench like her mother and put a Chinese cabbage in the sink for washing in the kitchen. Parents who are off work make a meal of fried cabbage.

As a result, the Chinese cabbage she crushed blocked the sewer, and the water slowly overflowed from the pool. She was too young to turn off the tap when she saw the water coming out. However, he reached into the sink to dig out the cabbage leaves that were stuck in the sewer, but because he was too short and clumsy, he slipped and fell to the ground with a "plop".Fortunately, when she fell, her head hit the edge of the pool, and a big pimple appeared on her forehead. It hurt so much that she burst into tears.

At that time, everyone lived in the dormitory of the tube building built by the factory, so the neighbors next to each other could usually hear the movement.Fortunately, the aunt across the door came back from get off work early, just in time to hear Lin Guoxiang crying alone at home, and seeing water coming out of the door, she hurried to find Lin Guoxiang's mother.Because the adults came back in time, there was no flood in the house, and the bad luck of the furniture being soaked in water was also avoided.

At that time, Lin Guoxiang's mother looked down on her all day long, complaining in front of her face why she wasn't a boy and so on.He didn't like her in the first place, but this time she got into trouble again, without saying a word, he lifted her up from the ground rudely, raised his hand and slapped her ass, and didn't even say a word of concern after the spanking.The aunt at the opposite door couldn't stand it anymore, so she went into the room and found Lin Guoxiang's clothes to help her change out of the fitting clothes. Otherwise, in April and May, even if it wasn't cold, a small person like her would have to wait for a while. cold.

Because of that fright and her mother's indiscriminate beating, Lin Guoxiang had a shadow in her heart, and since then she gradually became afraid of water.Later, her father sent her to her grandpa in the country, because she never let her do housework, so she slowly healed the wound in her heart.At first, she thought she had forgotten, but she didn't know that in another time and space, she was ruthlessly exposed by Xiucai again because of the small stream, and the scars and flesh were torn off, revealing the bloody wound inside.

The more Lin Guoxiang recalled, the more sad she cried, and in the end, she wailed loudly regardless of her face and image, making the scholar so anxious that she almost put on the pose of a meditator, completely worried.Still very distressed, how much grievance would it take to make a person who doesn't like to cry cry like this?

In the end, Xiucai had no choice but to squat down beside Lin Guoxiang and watch her cry silently, thinking that she would comfort her when she had cried enough.Now he finally understands Lin Dongqing's emotional words - when your daughter-in-law is crying, as a husband, you have to coax her. After the matter is over, she can never end with you and prefers to turn over old scores to make you live an uneasy life.

Now that Xiucai recalled what Lin Dongqing said, he felt that it was a golden word.He even wondered, if Lin Dongqing's words were written down in vernacular and published in a book, would it become a treasure book for husband and wife to live in harmony?
When Lin Guoxiang had cried enough, the scholar took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and handed it to Lin Guoxiang, and said teasingly, "Why, have you cried enough?" While speaking, there was a flash of distress in his eyes.

"Huh!" Lin Guoxiang snorted bitterly when she heard the scholar's teasing, and unceremoniously snatched the handkerchief he handed over, wiped the tears on her face indiscriminately, then wrung her nose vigorously, and then Throw it back to Xiucai directly.

Dumbfounded, the scholar picked up the handkerchief that was stained by Lin Guoxiang's tears and snot with two fingers, and said, "Oh, it's really kindness that didn't pay off. I didn't even get a thank you for handing over a handkerchief, alas..."

Lin Guoxiang glanced at Xiucai from the corner of her eye, shaking her head and sighing pretendingly, the corner of her eye twitched violently, then turned her face and gave Xiucai a hard look with eyes red from crying.That pair of red eyes that were as beautiful as a rabbit glared fiercely at him, scaring the scholar so much that he forgot what he had said.

While Lin Guoxiang wasn't paying attention, Xiucai rolled his eyes, and a sly smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, but he concealed it very well in the next second.

"Tsk tsk, look at it, it's crying like a big tabby cat, this is the mother of two children and still crying like this, isn't it ashamed?" Xiucai deliberately teased while holding the handkerchief in his hand with a look of disgust. .

When Lin Guoxiang heard what Xiucai said, she immediately exploded. The evil fire in her heart had nowhere to go, but when he said that again, she completely ran away, and a hungry tiger rushed to eat, and threw Xiucai to the ground. He waved his fist and flattened him hard.

The beaten scholar was gasping hissingly while covering his cheeks, while carefully preventing the wound at the corner of his mouth from rupturing again. He didn't open his mouth too much when he spoke, and his voice sounded a bit husky: "How about it, this time? Are you at ease?" After beating him like this, if he is not at ease anymore, it would be really unreasonable.

"..." Lin Guoxiang turned her face away in shame and embarrassment, she didn't dare to look at the scholar, she just nodded her head slightly inconspicuously, let out a muffled "um", and then said nothing .Although she didn't speak, her red ear betrayed her, which showed that the owner of this ear was feeling ashamed at the moment.

It seems that this girl still has a little conscience, and I deserve such a beating.Xiucai thought in his heart, his fingers accidentally touched the wound at the corner of his mouth, and he hissed a few breaths of cold air because of the pain.

Hearing the movement of Xiucai, Lin Guoxiang's red ear moved, and after hesitating for a while, she finally turned her face and asked Xiucai with a guilty face: "It hurts, that... I'm sorry, you too I know that I have a bad temper, and when I get angry, I don't know the severity, so...don't use this aggressive method next time..."

Lin Guoxiang is not a fool either, after the anger is over, she can turn her brain cells a little and she can immediately understand that what Xiucai said just now was intentional. own depressed mood.Apart from her grandfather and the Lin family, Xiucai is the second person who really treats her well.
