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

“No need to answer the door.”

She put the dagger back into its sheath and pinned it to her belt, intending to carry it with her wherever she went for self-defense.

Gu Fei frowned, with a hint of surprise on her face, "Not going back home?"

"Yes," Li Xiaoyu didn't intend to hide it from him.

She pulled over a small stool and sat on it, resting her hands on her knees and her chin on her palms.

Looking directly at the man's delicate face, she spoke in an indifferent tone, as if she was talking about something she didn't care about.

"You don't know the situation of my family. For them, it is actually a happy thing that I am not going back."

In this era of son preference, some families feel that daughters are worse than animals.

Gu Fei was holding clean clothes in his hands. He pinched the clothes lightly with his five fingers, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and his expression was a little guilty.

"Madam, is it because I am incompetent that my father-in-law doesn't want us to go back?"

His voice was deep and depressed.

Li Xiaoyu pursed his lips, then shook his head: "Don't blame yourself for everything every day, it's easy to..."

She wanted to say internal friction, but she thought he wouldn't understand, so she changed the word: "It's easy to cause depression in your heart."

"Depressed?"

It was the first time that Gu Fei heard someone say these two words to him.

Ever since he could remember, everyone told him that he had to become strong, but no one ever cared about his psychology.

And now he is indeed a waste.

Seeing him lower his eyes, Li Xiaoyu replied, "They don't want me to go back because they think I'm an eyesore. It has nothing to do with you."

"Besides, I have no plans to go back. Instead of using the money to buy things for them, why don't we keep it for ourselves and buy some good food and drinks."

Chatting is chatting, but Gu Fei still did all the necessary testing.

"But ma'am, isn't this too unrighteous?"

Some people attach great importance to reputation, integrity, righteousness and integrity. Li Xiaoyu can understand why he said that.

It's just that she lives more realistically.

She took the dagger from her waist and twirled the scabbard between her fingers like a pencil.

His voice was steady: "If our family were rich, I would definitely prepare all the etiquette, but our family is too poor. We don't even have a knife to cut vegetables. Why should we care about etiquette?"

When he heard that there wasn't even a knife, Gu Fei's eyes twitched.

Since she was sent to monitor me, she wouldn't be without even a knife and silver.

"Ma'am, are you joking?"

Hearing this, Li Xiaoyu really laughed.

She laughed out loud twice: "I thought I was joking, but this is the reality."

"I heard them say that your father-in-law gave you a dowry?"

The man's tone was gentle and sincere, and Li Xiaoyu did not feel uncomfortable, so she did not hide it from him.

After all, they are husband and wife, so let’s start by getting to know each other better.

"He did give it to me. He gave me two hundred copper coins." As she spoke, she stopped moving her fingers.

Two hundred copper coins?

Gu Fei lowered her eyes calmly, realizing something in her heart.

While he was thinking, Li Xiaoyu leaned forward slightly, supported his elbows on the edge of the bed, and tapped the edge of the bed with his other hand as if playing the piano.

"I spent ten cents to buy a basket of sweet potatoes at Doctor Liu's house, and five cents to treat you."

At this point, she sighed deeply: "Now there are only 185 coins left, and our kitchen..."

She told Gu Fei in detail the miserable situation in the kitchen and everything inside and outside the thatched hut.

Appeal to their emotions and explain the reason to them.

Tell him not to do anything pretentious just for the sake of courtesy.

After saying that, she sat up straight, stared at Gu Fei and asked, "Husband, do you think this is right?"

Temporarily putting aside the suspicion in her heart, Gu Fei tilted her head to look at her, and lowered her eyes as he did.

It feels like we are looking into each other's eyes.

He smiled and said, "Madam, you are right."

Li Xiaoyu raised her eyebrows. She had just said this the day before yesterday, and he put it into practice so quickly...

She didn't think much about it, she just looked down at the dagger in her hand, the more she looked at it the more she liked it.

Even though he couldn't see it, she still raised the corners of her lips and gave him a wide smile: "Then I'll keep this dagger. It happens that there is no knife at home. It's perfect for peeling sweet potatoes."

Hearing the cunning in her tone, Gu Fei paused with her fingers pinching her clothes.

The murderous dagger she used to peel sweet potatoes...

He said with a half-smile, "It's all up to you, Madam." Then he looked embarrassed, "But if you do this, I'm afraid life will be even more difficult for our family."

His words were hinting at whether Li Xiaoyu would abandon him.

Li Xiaoyu understood what he meant, but didn't know that he asked this on purpose. He stood up and took a step forward.

He patted his shoulder twice with his right hand, his slightly hoarse voice carrying a steady strength.

"Don't worry, my dear husband. Just for the dagger you gave me, as long as I can still make a pot cake, I will definitely give you a bite of sweet potato."

This is the truth, she really likes this dagger.

Gu Fei sneered in his heart.

He speaks so arrogantly, and you never know when he will stab him with a dagger.

The wages of avarice is death.

He understands this principle better than anyone else.

Since she doesn't plan to be the leader, let's see how long she can stay.

From the sound of Li Xiaoyu's footsteps and the action of patting her shoulders, he knew that she was standing by the bed.

He looked up at her, his eyes lazy and indifferent, just like his voice: "Madam, you are so good to me, I will definitely repay you well."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Xiaoyu felt uncomfortable again.

Although she didn't know why he suddenly became so weird, she just assumed that he had a physical defect that caused his temperament to be sometimes weird and sometimes normal.

But she had just obtained a sharp weapon today, so she didn't bother with him.

"I will also take good care of my husband."

She patted his shoulder again as if nothing had happened, and when she saw a gloomy look on his face, she narrowed her eyes slightly.

Good man, his true colors are beginning to show.

To be honest, she didn't believe that a man with a broken leg and a blind eye could be as calm and composed as he was.

Either their psychology is extremely twisted, or they are just pretending to be blind or lame.

But Doctor Liu has examined it and it cannot be the latter.

It can only be the former.

But he liked to pretend, and she was happy to accompany him. After all, there were no modern funs here, and life was always a bit boring.

Just have some fun.

Gu Fei gently brushed her hand away with his left hand and smiled gently, "Thank you, ma'am."

Li Xiaoyu didn't care when her hand was pushed away. She smiled and said, "My dear husband, you are too polite. Please change your clothes. I will leave first."

After she left the main room, Gu Fei tilted his head and stared at his shoulder with lifeless eyes, as if there was still some warmth from the woman's hand there.

His face suddenly turned cold, as if the air had cooled down a degree.

I want to see how you plan to take good care of me.

Li Xiaoyu left the room and immediately ran to the kitchen, took out a sweet potato, and quickly pulled out a dagger to peel it.

With a light cut of the knife, the sweet potato skin immediately fell to the ground.

She was so happy that she was numb.

I treated peeling sweet potatoes as a game of Candy Crush and peeled three in one go.

Naturally, we ate sweet potatoes that day.

On the day of returning home, Li Xiaoyu was preparing to go to the county town to buy some things. Before he went out, he heard Li Wu's rude voice coming from outside.

"Li Xiaoyu, your father is here, come and open the door."
