Rebirth with my ex-husband

Chapter 101

Su Yun has been depressed since returning to Jindu, becoming increasingly thinner and more haggard.

Madam Gu was very worried about this, so during this period of time, in addition to asking the Su sisters to comfort her, she also had Xiao Liu brought to the Marquis' Mansion to let Xiao Liu counsel her.

Su Yun looked a little tired in front of others, but still forced a smile.

Mrs. Liu knew her daughter well, and she felt sad to see her forcing a smile in front of her.

"Yun'er, you don't have to be like this in front of your mother."

Su Yun's smile gradually disappeared. She leaned into her mother's arms and said in a suppressed voice, "Mom, I feel bad."

Little Liu patted her back gently, saying softly, "Mother knows, you don't need to hold back in front of me, just cry if you want to."

Su Yun's eyes were red, and her voice gradually choked up: "When we encountered the bandits, he could have left, but in order to let us women go first, he stayed with the other secret guards to fight the bandits."

Xiao Liu patted her gently and listened to what she said.

Mrs. Gu said that her eyes only turned red when she came back, but she never cried or had red eyes in front of anyone since then. Mrs. Gu said that she was suppressing herself too much, so she asked her mother to comfort her.

Mrs. Liu also knew that her daughter needed an outlet, so she became her daughter's outlet.

"He has always been very good to me." When Su Yun said this, tears welled up in her eyes. Although they had treated each other with respect for four years and had misunderstandings, he had never bullied her.

Even when he misunderstood her in his previous life, he never said anything bad to her. When she wanted to find a doctor to treat her mother, he helped her find a doctor. When she was uncomfortable during sex, he never forced her.

After he came back, although his way of looking for her and wanting to compensate her was wrong, he never threatened her. Instead, he always went along with her.

Given his status, why should he do this?

She couldn't see it clearly before, but after getting married she gradually realized his good points.

Little Liu said gently, "The prince can't bear to leave you, he will be back soon."

Su Yun cried, "But I'm afraid he won't be able to find a way to come back."

He might want to come back to her, but she was afraid that he wouldn't know how to come back.

Su Yun cried in her mother's arms for a long time until she calmed down a lot. Then she sat up from her mother's arms, sniffed, and wiped away the tears from her eyes with a handkerchief.

Xiao Liu also reached out her hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Su Yun smiled and said, "I'm much better now."

After taking two deep breaths, she said to her mother, "My husband hasn't woken up yet, and I just got pregnant, so it's not convenient for me to go out. So I may not have much time to visit mother during this period of time."

Xiao Liu said, "It's not like we'll never see each other again. You should get well first and we can talk about other things later."

Su Yun nodded slightly.

After dinner, it was getting late, so Mrs. Liu left.

Su Yun sent her mother out of the yard and then returned to the house.

He walked to the bed, sat on the edge, and stared at the person on the bed.

After being in a coma for more than 20 days, he didn't change much except that he lost some weight.

The imperial physician said that because he had been in a coma for too long, the muscles in his limbs would gradually atrophy, so someone would come to stretch his hands and feet every day.

His daily meals were either rice soup or rice soup with minced meat, which was poured into him little by little using a thin bamboo tube. This would definitely not work in the long run.

If he doesn't wake up in the next few months, he will be skinny as a bag of bones. If he wakes up in half a year, his limbs will atrophy and his body will become hunched, and he will look like neither human nor ghost.

He had been such a charming and charming person originally, and Su Yun couldn't bear to see him become half-human, half-ghost.

She took off her shoes, got on the couch, and lay on his chest as usual, whispering, "If the price of staying in this life is that you never wake up, I don't want to stay in this life, but..."

She took a deep breath, took his hand, and placed his palm on her belly. She sniffed lightly and explained uncomfortably: "But we have a child, so I can't make a decision."

Su Yun raised her head and looked at Gu Shixing, whose eyes were tightly closed. She whispered, "Maybe if I go find you, there's still a chance that we can come back together. But if I don't go find you, I'm afraid you'll never come back."

"Besides, we made a promise to each other in Lingchuan that we would advance and retreat together. How could I leave you alone in the last life..."

After saying this, she took his hand and looked thoughtfully at the small Buddhist beads on his wrist.

He once said that this Buddhist string might be the trigger for them to return to the past, and she recently always felt that as long as she had the desire to go back, this Buddhist string would really take her back.

This feeling became stronger after returning to Jindu, but she was reluctant to give up the warmth of this life, her mother, and her children.

But she couldn't bear to leave him even more.

She untied the Buddhist beads on his hand, put her five fingers into his fingers, and then wrapped the beads around the hands of both of them.

Su Yun lowered her head to look at the two people's hands clasped together, then rested her head back on his chest.

She took a deep breath and said quietly, "I hope we can come back together, wait for the baby to be born, and watch him grow up slowly."

After saying that, he closed his eyes and waited for sleepiness to come.

When Su Yun fell asleep, the two hands were still tightly clasped together, with no signs of loosening.

*

Su Yun felt that she had been walking in the darkness for a long time, until she was exhausted, she saw light ahead.

She walked towards the light and vaguely saw a familiar figure in the light.

She recognized the man as Gu Shixing at a glance. Her body suddenly shook and she trotted after him.

I caught up with him and grabbed his hand. The next moment, I heard a familiar voice in my ear: "What's wrong?"

Su Yun suddenly opened her eyes and saw Gu Shixing standing very close to her, but he was not lying motionless on the bed with his eyes closed. Instead, he was sitting on the bed looking at her.

And her hand grasped his little arm.

Su Yun's eyes widened and her pupils shrank. The next moment, she sat up suddenly and hugged him excitedly.

"You, you're really awake?!"

There was an obvious tremor in Su Yun's voice, and he couldn't believe it.

"What happened to you suddenly?"

The clear and cold voice and tone were the same as when they had been husband and wife for four years.

The excitement suddenly seemed to be poured with a basin of cold water. It was at this time that she realized that his body was slightly stiff because of her embrace.

Su Yun's heart was tense. She loosened her arms around his waist, left his arms, stepped back, and stared at the person in front of her with a dull look.

Gu Shixing's gaze fell on her slightly red eyes and trembling eyelashes. It was obvious that she seemed to have suffered a blow.

After a moment of silence, he still asked, "But where do you feel uncomfortable?"

Su Yun couldn't help but tightly grasp the quilt on her legs. With a last glimmer of hope, she asked him tentatively, "How long have we been married?"

Gu Shixing raised his eyebrows slightly. Although he was puzzled, he answered her truthfully and said, "Including this month, it has been exactly four years."

Hearing "four years", Su Yun felt dizzy, but she still resisted the urge to collapse and asked him again: "Do you forget it, or... the person who went back with me was not you?"

Gu Shixing frowned, stretched out his hand, and placed the back of his hand on her forehead. She didn't have a high fever, but her words and actions were strange.

Without thinking about it, he immediately turned around and got off the couch, picked up the coat on the shelf beside him and put it on hastily. While putting on the clothes, he looked up at her and said, "You rest first. I'll send someone to get Doctor Fu."

After saying that, he directly pulled off the waist belt from the shelf and walked out of the house while tying it.

Su Yun looked at his back and came back to her senses a little.

Gu Shixing seemed the same as those four years, but there seemed to be some differences...

During those four years, he was so reserved that no one could see his emotions. But just now, he looked a little hurried, similar to Gu Shixing after they had been husband and wife for another year.

For a moment, Su Yun looked a little more confused.

Gu Shixing asked Mo Tai to go to the Imperial Hospital to invite Doctor Fu, and then returned to the house.

But when he returned to the room, he saw his wife sitting on the bed in a daze.

He had never seen her like this before.

——I have never seen her staring blankly in front of him, and I have never seen her hug him actively.

Gu Shixing thought for a moment and said, "I haven't asked for leave yet. I'll go to the Dali Temple to ask for leave and come back later."

As she said this, while fixing her hair, she glanced twice at Su Yun who was still in a daze lying on the bed.

After leaving the room, he told Chu Yi: "My wife may not be feeling well today, please keep an eye on her."

Chu Yi responded.

Gu Shixing was about to leave, but for some reason, he felt something strange in his heart.

After thinking for a while, he gave one more instruction: "Send a message to mother, saying that my wife is not feeling well and will not take care of the housework for the next few days."

Chu Yi said "Huh?" and then quickly responded "Yes."

After Gu Shixing left, Chu Yi tilted his head slightly and said to himself, "Why do I feel that the prince is a little strange today?"

Like... he cares more about his wife?

Suddenly remembering that the prince said his wife was not feeling well, Chu Yi no longer cared whether it was strange or not, and quickly turned around and knocked on the door.

There was no response from the room, so she opened the door in a hurry. She was relieved to see her wife sitting on the bed in a daze, but not unconscious.

He poured a cup of tea, brought it into the inner room, and handed it to Su Yuan.

"Ma'am, drink some water."

Su Yun glanced at the teacup handed to him, as if he had thought of something. He pondered for a few breaths, then suddenly came to his senses and looked up at Chu Yi.

"Chu Yi, help me make some tonic."

The master suddenly came back to his senses. Chu Yi was stunned for a moment, but still asked: "What kind of tonic would you like to drink, my lady?"

Su Yun said: "Snow Lotus Black Chicken Soup."

Chu Yiying: "Then I will go to the storehouse to see if there is any snow lotus."

Su Yun nodded, and then continued: "Don't stew it for too long, just..."

She remembered that Gu Shixing went to the Dali Temple to ask for leave, and the round trip took about half an hour.

"It will only take half an hour to prepare, and then bring it in when my husband comes back, saying that it was sent by my mother."

Chu Yi was stunned.

Su Yun said: "Just do as I say."

Chu Yi nodded and then walked out of the house.

Su Yun looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar house, took a deep breath, and got up to put on her makeup.

No matter what, she did see Gu Shixing, who was not injured or unconscious. As for other things, she would find out after she had tested them.

After washing and dressing, she opened her dressing table, looked at a pair of earrings inside, took them out and placed them in her palm.

This was given to her by her mother a while ago.

Thinking of her mother who had been unconscious all her life, she felt suffocated.

She closed her palm, wrapped the earring in it, put it to her lips, and repeated the three words "I'm sorry" softly.

Tears slid down her cheeks and dripped onto the dressing table, leaving drop after drop of tears on the surface.

She not only feels sorry for her mother, she feels even more sorry for her children.

She only hoped that the person in this life would be Gu Shixing, who had gone back to the past with her and lived with her for two years. She also hoped that they would have a chance to go back and give birth to the child who would not be born in the future.

*

Gu Shixing returned to the mansion half an hour later, but Imperial Physician Fu had not arrived yet.

He asked the servants, and they all said that his wife had never come out.

Gu Shixingju walked into the room and saw her sitting in front of the dressing table.

She had already put on her makeup, but she just looked at the mirror and said nothing.

He thought about it and walked into the inner room.

While changing clothes, he said calmly: "Your wife's condition has improved recently, so don't worry too much."

Gu Shixing thought about it carefully before he came back. Apart from her mother's affairs, he couldn't think of anything else that would cause such a big change in her mood.

Su Yun, who was sitting in front of the dressing table, hummed softly.

After Gu Shixing changed into a home robe, there was a knock on the door.

Su Yun looked towards the door and said, "Come in."

Chu Yi pushed the door open with hot soup in his hand, bowed slightly to the two masters, and then looked at Su Yun: "Madam, Madam sent someone to deliver a tonic soup, saying that it is for your body."

Su Yun said: "Bring it here."

Chu Yi put the tray on the tea table, filled a bowl of soup and brought it to Su Yun.

Su Yun took the stew, stirred it a few times with a spoon, then scooped up a spoonful of soup and asked knowingly, "What kind of soup is this?"

Although Chu Yi felt it was strange, after all, he had served his master for so many years and understood his master's temperament to some extent, so he cooperated and replied, "My lady, it's black chicken stewed with snow lotus."

When he heard the name of the soup, Gu Shixing, who was already sitting on the couch reading a book, frowned slightly.

Su Yun said calmly: "Snow lotus is a rare thing. This is the first time I taste it."

As she spoke, she brought the soup to her lips. Just as she was about to drink it, Gu Shixing suddenly grabbed her hand.

Su Yun looked up at him, only to see him frowning as he took the soup bowl and spoon from her hands and took them into his own hands.

He put the spoon into the bowl, frowned, and said subconsciously: "You can't drink this."

Su Yun's eyes gradually became misty, and his voice trembled slightly: "Why can't I drink it?"

Gu Shixing was stunned for a moment when she asked this question.

Yes, why can’t I drink it?

Seeing that he had no reaction, Su Yun deliberately said in a sarcastic tone: "Don't I deserve to eat such good food? But I want to drink it anyway."

As she said this, she reached out to take the soup back from him.

But Gu Shixing took a step back and drank half the bowl of hot soup in front of her without thinking.

Chu Yi was startled and said hurriedly: "This is for women to regulate their blood and qi..."

Although the words came out of his mouth, the bowl of soup still went into his mouth.

Su Yun looked at Gu Shixing, covered her lips, her eyes were misty, it seemed that she was crying, but she was laughing while crying.

It was him, Gu Shixing who went back to the past with her.
