Substitute Bride: The Gentle Husband of the Evil Girl is Crazy and Wild

Li Xiaoyu's mouth twitched. It would be a pity if he didn't become an accountant since he was so good at finishing off others.

When I glanced at him, I noticed that there was no wooden basin on the small bench.

He took it out himself?

Seeing the man lowering his head, she looked down and her eyes fell on his thin lips.

Without hearing her reply, Gu Fei started again, "Madam, you hate communicating with me."

"No, I just think we are so poor and can't afford salt." She never thought that one day she wouldn't even be able to afford salt.

Gu Fei's low voice was filled with sadness: "Blame me for dragging you down."

Li Xiaoyu shivered unconsciously.

He rubbed his arms and said gently, "I'll go get Doctor Liu to come in and see you."

After calling Doctor Liu into the room, she went to the kitchen to cook sweet potatoes. She had not eaten breakfast and was feeling very hungry.

Wipe the stove clean, wash the pot, and scoop two scoops of water into it.

Wash four sweet potatoes and put them in to cook.

She walked behind the stove and looked around but couldn't find the fire starter. Looking at the small pile of firewood behind her, she touched her stomach and got up to find Doctor Liu.

When she entered the room, Doctor Liu was bandaging Gu Fei's leg.

Seeing her come in, Doctor Liu shook his head at her, indicating not to ask any questions first. Li Xiaoyu nodded to show that she understood.

The injured parts of Gu Fei's left leg were all covered with herbs. The black herbs were wrapped in cloth. Looking at his pale face, he looked somewhat desolate.

After bandaging the leg, Doctor Liu began to pack up the medicine box.

Seeing this, Li Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment. She patted Doctor Liu's arm gently and pointed her index finger twice at Gu Fei's right hand which was placed on the quilt.

Doctor Liu understood what she wanted to say. He stroked his long gray beard and shook his head slightly at Li Xiaoyu.

The latter couldn't quite understand what he meant by shaking his head.

After he left, the two of them stood in the yard, and she asked Doctor Liu, "What did you mean by shaking your head just now?"

Doctor Liu sighed deeply: "Gu Fei's left leg is injured. I can only treat his superficial injuries. It will be difficult for him to recover completely."

As he spoke, he looked towards the room.

Li Xiaoyu also followed his gaze and looked over there. She stared at the window frame with a serious expression.

She murmured, "There is almost no hope..."

Doctor Liu nodded.

Gu Fei heard the conversation between the two clearly in the room.

He took off his disguise in front of outsiders, his face was gloomy, his brows were filled with undisguised coldness, and his aura was cold and murderous.

He was not as gentle as he showed in front of Li Xiaoyu.

At this time, the woman's voice sounded outside again: "What about his right hand?"

Then a kind old man's voice replied: "His hand looks fine, but the metacarpal bones and the knuckles of each finger are broken. I don't know what injured him."

At this point, Doctor Liu sighed again. He had never seen such a cruel practice.

"His right hand is completely useless. Even if it heals automatically in the future, he can't even hold chopsticks with that hand."

Hearing the conversation between the two, Gu Fei's eyes narrowed slightly and his expression seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

Chopsticks...

I'm afraid it can't even hold a stone.

Since it's useless, let's destroy it completely.

The next moment, he placed his left hand on his right wrist and twisted it left and right.

There was only a snapping sound, and his right hand was like a cut branch, unable to be lifted up again.

Despite his self-harming behavior, Gu Fei still had a faint smile on his face, as if it was not his hand that was broken.

Li Xiaoyu didn't know what happened inside, and she couldn't help but frown when she heard what Doctor Liu said.

This is a devastating blow to people who are used to doing things with their right hand.

She pursed her lips and opened her mouth slightly, wanting to say something, but she ended up saying, "Doctor Liu, can I borrow your fire starter?"

"I have several at home. Come back with me and get one."

"Okay, wait for me for a moment, I'll go in and get the money for your medicine."

He ran into the room and took five copper coins according to the price agreed upon with Doctor Liu in advance.

In fact, these few copper coins are not enough for medical expenses.

When she went to see Doctor Liu, she kept playing the victim and crying in front of him, and only then did she get the price down.

There's no way. We're too poor now, so I have to spend the little dowry sparingly.

From the time she entered the room to the time she took the money, Gu Fei didn't say a word. It was not until she was about to leave that he asked knowingly, "Madam, why are you in such a hurry? Where are you going?"

Li Xiaoyu had already run to the door, but she stopped when she heard this.

Turning to him, she said, "I'll go to Doctor Liu's house to get a fire starter and come back later to light a fire and cook the sweet potatoes."

Her obedient answer fell into Gu Fei's ears, making him feel a little doubtful.

Just when he was confused, Li Xiaoyu said again: "I'm leaving."

Gu Fei replied calmly: "Okay."

After she left, he folded his hands on his abdomen, and played with his right index finger with his left thumb and index finger.

He folded his index finger over and over again as if he felt no pain.

A pair of lazy willow-leaf eyes looked in the direction where Li Xiaoyu left, and he lowered his eyes as if thinking about something.

Li Xiaoyu didn't know that Gu Fei was suspecting her. She went to Doctor Liu's house to get a fire starter and then hurried home to cook sweet potatoes.

There was no knife at home, so she didn't cut the sweet potatoes into pieces and cooked them whole.

Add firewood and let the fire in the stove crackle.

She stood up and walked to the chopping board, threw the moldy chopsticks into the stove and burned them, then washed the three bowls.

After the sweet potatoes were cooked, she put them all into a bowl.

The other two bowls were each filled with half a bowl of the water used to cook the sweet potatoes.

Gu Fei had medicine applied to her legs and couldn't get out of bed for the time being, so she carried the bowl to the room twice.

The bench was not long and could only hold two bowls at most. She took her bowl and placed it on the table in the main room.

He went into the room, picked up a sweet potato, sat on the edge of the bed, and carefully peeled the sweet potato.

The freshly cooked sweet potatoes are a little hot.

She was too hungry to care whether her hands were hot or not. As she peeled the fruit, she pouted her lips into the shape of a goldfish's mouth and blew cool air on her hands.

Listening to her continuous whistling sounds like the wind, Gu Fei couldn't help but think of something.

Suddenly his head began to ache and a gloomy feeling rose in his heart.

But his expression was so gentle that Li Xiaoyu couldn't see any problem at all.

Just when he couldn't control his emotions and wanted to tell the woman to get out, he felt a warm touch on the back of his left hand.

"Here, eat sweet potatoes."

Compared to Gu Fei's coldness, Li Xiaoyu's hands were as warm as if they had just been taken out of the quilt.

When the woman found his hands were cold, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she tilted her head to look outside through the window.

It was sunny outside, but his hands were as cold as winter frost.

Gu Fei suppressed the gloom in his heart, took the sweet potato from her hand, and changed his tone to a gentle one.

"Thank you ma'am."

Seeing him smile, Li Xiaoyu pretended not to know that his hands were cold and smiled, "You're welcome."

Gu Fei felt annoyed when she heard the laughter.

After peeling the other sweet potato, Li Xiaoyu took the two remaining sweet potatoes in the bowl, put the peeled ones into the bowl, and put the bowl into the man's arms.

"There's a sweet potato in there, remember to eat it later. There's also a bowl of soup on the stool, remember to drink it after you finish eating."

She was very hungry, so she said without even looking at the man, and walked out with her sweet potato.

Standing in front of the table, he took a big bite without even peeling the sweet potato.

The slightly sweet and sticky taste melted away, and her mood improved, so she took another sip of water.

It is said that sugar can make people feel better, which is absolutely true.

She smiled, shook her head happily while eating sweet potatoes, and made satisfied sounds from her mouth.

“Very sweet.”

While eating sweet potatoes, Li Xiaoyu's mind was working fast. She always felt that Gu Fei's gentleness was just an appearance.

Her eyes rolled, and she crouched down and tiptoed towards the door.

Reaching the door frame, she tilted her head to the right.

Hearing the two words of happiness in the woman's laughter, Gu Fei suppressed his gloom. He pinched the sweet potato in his hand and then took a light bite.

He frowned as soon as he put the food in his mouth.

Where is the super sweet?
