Chapter 95: Chapter 93 Sisi’s Heartache: The Shocking Secret! Down

She suddenly turned her hand and grabbed Liu Sisi’s arm, gently lifting her sleeve with trembling hands, revealing the bright red mole that appeared before her eyes once again.

Liu Sisi was immersed in her own thoughts, still wiping her tears.

“I don’t care about people like her, I’m just sad, I…”

Halfway through her sentence, Liu Sisi choked up and couldn’t speak.

Guihua stared with wide eyes, still fixated on the red mole and unable to move.

After a while, she swallowed her saliva and hesitatingly asked: “Sisi! Did you and Brother Ye Lei… you… did you not share a room at night?”

Guihua finally asked the question, her voice barely louder than a mosquito’s.

The listeners didn’t feel anything, but the person who asked the question was blushing with embarrassment.

“What do you mean sharing a room? Sister Guihua, what are you trying to ask?”

Liu Sisi stopped her tears and blinked, lowering her head to continue mending the neckline.

“Oh! I’m asking if you and Brother Ye Lei… stayed together at night?”

This question was really embarrassing!

Guihua saw that Liu Sisi still appeared unconcerned and continued mending, so she couldn’t help but angrily snatch the needle and thread from her hand, throwing it directly into the nearby sewing basket.

“Sisi! Are you really not listening to me? You and Brother Ye Lei… you… you… oh! Did your mother tell you any secrets about the bridal chamber before you got married?”

How could she ask such a question!

This was truly a case of the Emperor not being in a hurry while the eunuch was anxious to death!

Guihua was pacing anxiously, but Liu Sisi naturally noticed and fell silent.

Too many things happened yesterday, but she had already thought a lot, even considering divorce.

The her of today was no longer the sickly Liu Sisi who had just crossed over; even without relying on Di Yelei, she could still stand on her own in this world.

But should she really take this step?

She had been repeatedly asking herself.

However, whenever she thought about the child in her stomach, she couldn’t make up her mind.

If she had to choose between Di Yelei and the so-called Businessman Zhang, she would rather choose Di Yelei because he was honest and simple.

Zhang Shixin was too slippery and insincere, and he had many wives and concubines at home. She couldn’t accept sharing a husband with others and wouldn’t demean herself like that.

But Di Yelei’s actions yesterday had hurt her heart and made her want to leave.

In this era, women could only leave either by divorce or being discarded.

According to the current situation, if she proposed divorce, everyone would think she had committed adultery. It would be impossible to divorce, and the most likely outcome would be being discarded and returning to her mother’s home.

Her mother’s home? A place where she had no memory of, she would naturally not go back to!

But where could she go if she was pregnant and discarded?

After thinking it through, she decided to stay for the time being, at least… until the current storm passed and they could discuss divorce.

However, she couldn’t mention these thoughts to anyone, including the Guihua sister before her eyes.

“Sister Guihua, you know that I had a high fever just after getting married, and I’ve completely forgotten about the past. I don’t even remember where my family is, or how many people are in my family.”

Liu Sisi said calmly, then lowered her head, picked up the clothes and needlework, and continued mending.

Guihua had her eyes wide open in amazement, the words she wanted to say stuck in her throat, unable to speak.

That was indeed the maiden’s blood symbolizing her virginity, and she was sure she wasn’t mistaken!

They had been married for several months, and Sisi was still a virgin?

If anyone were to say there wasn’t something strange going on, she would be the first to disbelieve!

Seeing Liu Sisi’s reddened and swollen eyes, Guihua swallowed the words she was about to say and quickly changed the topic.

“Oh? Isn’t this the clothing we finished sewing together a few days ago? How did it get torn like this? Come, let me see how to mend it better.”

She casually took the damaged clothing, and the ripped shape immediately caught Guihua’s eyes.

Her eyes couldn’t help but darken again, as her mind quickly filled in the blanks.

Could it be…?

That Di Yelei was experiencing some problems in the bedroom, so…?

Heavens!

This is explosive news!

She must tell Zhang Peng as soon as possible to see if some medicine or other remedies can help. At the very least, they needed to consummate their marriage, right?

With this in mind, her gaze towards Liu Sisi became even more sympathetic and affectionate!

“Give it to me! I’m great at mending clothing. After all, it’s your clothing, so there’s no need to worry about others gossiping.”

“That’s true.”

Liu Sisi forced a smile and picked up the shuttle Liu Sisi had brought. This was something she had learned since arriving here; it wouldn’t be right to let others help for nothing.

With nothing else to do, Guihua tried hard to divert Liu Sisi’s attention: “Oh, Sisi, have you heard? Big Mouth Li from our village hasn’t been seen for days. Old Man Li has a lame leg and has been hungry for several days; can’t stand it any longer, so he went to find the pockmarked-faced woman to make a scene. That pockmarked-faced woman is having an affair with Big Mouth Li, do you remember her? She’s the married woman you scolded when you were washing clothes by the river. Tsk, tsk! That scolding…”

In the forest.

In the middle of the dense woods, there was a depression that formed a small pond. In summer, the pond was full of lush vegetation and water plants, with traces of wildlife seen from time to time.

At the moment, a small group of elk were cautiously emerging from the hill hollow, vigilantly scanning for any movement around them.

The leading elk was a tall, mature male with high and large antlers. He cautiously advanced two steps then retreated half a step.

>

As the leader approached the pond without incident, the other elks slowly followed behind, cautiously moving closer to the water’s edge.

Hiding in the bushes around the pond were several people.>

Everyone held their breath, fearing that any noise would startle the group of elks. They silently raised their bows and aimed their arrow tips at the lead elk as it drew closer to the water.

Di Yelei was among them.

His hands were taut, and the large bow in his grasp was already stretched into a full moon, ready to release the crucial arrow at any moment.

The lead elk had reached the edge of the pond, carefully scanning the surroundings before cautiously lowering its head to drink the water.

“Achoo! Achoo! Achoo, achoo-”

Several sneezes startled the elks!

The lead elk sprang and bolted, swinging its legs in the air to form an arc, and let out a loud cry as it fled with the other elks. In an instant, the elks had vanished without a trace.

Di Yelei rubbed his nose in annoyance. Could it be that Sisi was thinking about him?

Seeing the elks flee at their sudden scare, Di Yelei could only watch as the perfect opportunity that he had been waiting for slipped before his eyes, and he couldn’t help but sigh.

Damn it!

As the saying goes, misfortune never comes singly.

He had no choice but to leave his hiding place, pick up his bow and arrow, and head toward the other side to meet up with Zhang Peng and the others.

“Ye Lei, what happened to you today? How could you make such a mistake? Seems like your mind is not on hunting. Are you still worried about your father’s illness?”

Zhang Peng, Li Wu, and several other hunters gathered around.

It was indeed his fault, but Di Yelei didn’t bother to explain further: “My father’s illness has improved a lot, but it’s just the cost of the medicine…”

As soon as he said this, everyone understood.
