Tang Zhou sat down beside the bed and held Shen Zhixi's hand with his backhand.
"You're awake. How do you feel? Is your head still dizzy? Does the wound hurt?"
Shen Zhixi shook his head, regardless of his blindness.
Right now, she only felt scared.
When we were in the mountains, I was confused and said a lot of things. Looking back now, I feel like I'm sweating. Fortunately, I didn't say anything revealing, otherwise it would have been over.
My mind wasn't clear at that time, but I remember exactly what I said and did.
She touched her lips, and the scene of kissing under the moon resurfaced.
And what Tang Zhou said to her.
Tang Zhou said that she was good to him and he was willing to marry her.
At that time, I felt like I was in a dream, but now that I think about it, I feel frightened for no reason.
"You..." She held Tang Zhou with both hands and started acting again, "You said you wanted to marry me before. Is it true, or did I just dream about it?"
Tang Zhou slowly reached out to touch her forehead and pressed it against her.
"Are you stupid because the snake's venom has entered your brain? Do you think everything I said was just a dream?"
"I just want to confirm, I'm afraid..."
"Don't be afraid." Tang Zhou took back his hand and patted the back of her hand, "You originally made a decision to marry...the day after tomorrow, so don't change it. We will get married the day after tomorrow."
"The day after tomorrow."
Shen Zhixi was a little excited, excited that this day was finally coming.
"The day after tomorrow."
Shen Zhixi was speechless because of the joy, but Tang Zhou was in a daze, his heart skipped a beat, his eyes darkened, and he said slowly: "I forgot, I only said I wanted to marry you but didn't ask you if you wanted to. Willing to marry me. Now I am penniless, injured and blind. You..."
"I do."
Shen Zhixi sat up, hooked his neck and hugged him, and said in his ear: "Tang Zhou, I am willing, I am just afraid that you will feel wronged."
"No grievance."
Tang Zhou hugged her back and used some strength.
"I'm not wronged." He emphasized again.
"That's good." Shen Zhixi rested his head on his shoulder, looked out the window, and repeated it as if he was muttering to himself, "It's good as long as you don't feel wronged."

After a day of rest, Shen Zhixi's foot injury was almost healed.
Early in the morning, I went out.
I'm getting married tomorrow, so I have to prepare something.
As soon as she returned to Shen's house, Cui's mother started talking, "Ancestor, you know you are back, but do you know what people outside are saying about you now?"
Shen Zhixi didn't even raise his eyes, he lowered his head and ate the bird's nest in the bowl carefully.
"What else could it be? It's just saying that I found a new love and abandoned Qin Mu, and that I was a promiscuous person. Apart from these, what else is there?"
"What else? What else do you want?"
"Don't be nervous, I know what's going on."
"You know what I know..."
"Mother Cui, do you have to tell me these bad things when I'm happy? Tomorrow, I will get Tang Zhou. It's a happy event, so why bother mentioning those people? By the way, Mother Cui, you have to help me prepare two sets of wedding clothes. , in order to avoid Tang Zhou’s suspicion, it should be made rough, and the materials should not be used too well. There are also wedding candles, longan, lotus seeds, red dates, etc., and yes, there is also wedding wine."
"It's not like we're really getting married, you..."
Shen Zhixi raised his eyes and glanced at Cui's mother. Even though she was not really married, she still had to show it, so that she would not marry anyone again in the future. Just...just pretend that she had really married Tang Zhou once.
Just as he was about to speak, he heard a message coming in from outside.
"Miss, Miss Fang Rou is here."
With a twitch, she put down the spoon and felt very disappointed.
Fang Rou is Qin Mu's cousin.
"Miss, do you want her to come in?" Yuanyang asked.
Shen Zhixi pushed the bird's nest away, stood up and went outside, "I've come here. I won't see you today. I'll come back tomorrow and the day after. Let's see what she has to say."
From time to time, Fang Rou was brought in.
Shen Zhixi sat back in the rocking chair while shaking his fan, looking up and down at the person in front of him.
Fang Rou is quite pretty. She is not a great beauty, but she has the charm of Xiaojiabiyu. However, her clothes are too simple, but even these clothes were kindly given to her by Shen Zhixi. .
When she first arrived, she was wearing coarse linen clothes, which were worse than what Shen Zhixi wore in the bamboo hut.
For Qin Mu's sake, Shen Zhixi bought her a lot of things, but she didn't ask for anything expensive, only some simple jewelry and clothes. She was really deceived by her at that time, and he actually thought she was okay.
"Miss Shen, my cousin has been lying in bed for half a month. Can you go and see my cousin?"
She spoke in a soft and soft tone, which always made her feel pitiful.
Shen Zhixi didn't answer and just asked: "Where's Miss Fang? You've been working in my shop for a while. How are you getting used to it?"
Seeing that she didn't answer the question, Fang Rou frowned and looked like she was about to cry.
"Miss Shen, do you really think that the young master in Yue Capital is going to abandon your cousin, as people say?"
"What if it's true?" Shen Zhixi looked at her with a smile.
"You..." Fang Rou's eyes turned red. She took a step forward and raised her voice and said, "You dislike poverty and love wealth so much. When you have something better, you immediately turn around and abandon the people you grew up with. Aren't you afraid of being gossiped about? ?"
Shen Zhixi raised his eyes and sneered at her, "You're not afraid, so what am I afraid of?"
"Me? What's wrong with me?" Fang Rou looked like she was about to cry.
"You and Qin Mu are alone and together all the time. Aren't you afraid of others gossiping?"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Fang Rou's eyes were full of tears, as if she had been bullied by Shen Zhixi. "My cousin and I are innocent. Don't slander us. Who do you think you are? All dirty.”
Being pointed at the nose and scolded, Shen Zhixi also changed his face.
"Don't forget, I gave you everything you need to eat, use and live now, including a few taels of silver as salary every month. You are ungrateful and you come to scold me, Fang Rou, how much do I give to the dog outside?" Even if it’s a piece of meat, it knows how to wag its tail at me.”
"me……"
Fang Rou's face turned red and her tears fell more quickly.
"I just feel sorry for my cousin. He has been lying in bed for half a month and missed you for half a month. I just came to ask you to take a look at my cousin."
"Okay, since you feel sorry for your cousin, then go back and don't work in the shop anymore. Go back and take good care of your cousin. Also, the house I bought for you is too far away from your cousin's house. It's far away and it's not convenient for you to move around and take care of him, so you can live at your cousin's house and take care of him personally. I'll take back the yard first."
"you……"
"Mother Cui, send her out and ask someone to tell the shopkeeper in the shop below. Then send someone to collect the yard and send Miss Fang to Qin Mu's house."
"yes."
Fang Rou looked panicked and refused to leave. Maybe she didn't expect that Shen Zhixi would be so cruel. The yard was taken back and she was asked to live in Qin Mu's house. Wouldn't it be confirmed that her relationship with Qin Mu was not clean? What would outsiders think?
"Miss Shen, it's not like this, it's not..."
Cui's mother also saw that she was annoyed, so she was so strong that she dragged her out in a few strokes.
"I'm so angry." Yuanyang stood next to Shen Zhixi and scolded, gasping with anger, "Why is she crying? She burst into tears out of nowhere. Those who don't know think that Miss, you did something to her!"
"Why is she crying?"
Shen Zhixi put down his fan and sat down.
"She cried that if I really don't want Qin Mu, then Qin Mu's plan to seize my family's wealth will be in vain. Qin Mu will lose his wealth and future, what can I do to provide her with a good life in the future?"
Upon hearing this, Yuanyang became even more angry, "Shameless."
Shen Zhixi stood up and walked to the door. Looking at Fang Rou's figure being led away gradually, he exhaled and said, "Forget it, I'll have a big day tomorrow, but I can't let people like this ruin my good mood. I'll take my time when I look back." Let’s settle the accounts. The wedding ceremony will be held with flowers and candles tomorrow night, and it’s getting closer and closer to the arrival of my child.”

As evening approached, Shen Zhixi and the two returned to the bamboo hut.
He lifted up the car curtain to take a look, and saw Tang Zhou standing behind the fence from a distance.
