My Mysterious Husband

Chapter 247 Come and Save Me (1)

Venus went to bed that night before nine o’clock. She fell deep in sleep very quickly. Suddenly, she felta pair of rough hands were on her body, and she was wide awake.

She kicked helplessly and screamed: “Help!!” She hadn’t talked for a very long time so her voice washoarse.

“I thought you were dumb!” The man said. He then covered Venus’s mouth with his hand. But Venus bithis hand and slapped his face very hard.

The man’s anger flared up. He shouted: “You fucking bitch! How dare you to slap me!”

“Help!” Venus screamed. She struggled very hard, but since she couldn’t see and her brain wasn’tworking properly, the man finally got control of her and tore her clothes away.

“Damn! So beautiful! But you will be married to Gawa! What a shame!” The man said.

Venus flew into a rage. She summoned all her strength and pushed him off the bed.

“Damn!” The man fell on the ground and when he stood up again and was about to beat Venus, thedoor was pushed open. And his wife appeared at the door. Her eyes were blazing with fury.

“You bloody asshole! How dare you!” His wife grabbed a broom and hit him very hard. “This woman isretarded! How can you do this to a fool? Do you still have an ounce of integrity? Don’t you know weneed to sell her?”

The man escaped. He covered his head with his hands and said: “Stop beating me! She seduced me!”

The woman was even more angry after hearing what he said. “Bullshit! She can’t even see! You thinkI’m stupid?” She said. Then, the broom fell on the man’s back, and the man screamed in pain.

“Stop. Stop.” The man knelt in front of his wife and begged. His wife pointed the broom at him and said:“Don’t do this again! Or I’ll beat the shit out of you!!”

“No, I won’t. I won’t.” The man said. He then noticed his wife was less angry, so he grabbed her armand said: “I was wrong. I’m so sorry. Please don’t be angry with me.”

“Don’t you touch me!” His wife pushed him away and said: “Now go away! You are disgusting me.”

The man then escaped the room.

Venus was sitting in a corner. She rolled herself into a ball and she shuddered nonstop.

The woman looked at her and she felt sorry for her. She said in a soft tone of voice: “Don’t be afraid.He is gone.”

Venus was too shocked to say anything. Her clothes were all torn. So the woman found a t-shirt for herfrom another room. She said: “Put this on.”

Venus didn’t move. She stared at a direction unblinkingly even though she couldn’t see anything.novelbin

The woman heaved a sigh. “This is the only shirt we have. Put this on. The day after tomorrow, Gawawill send you some new clothes.”

Then the woman tried to help Venus to dress. But Venus was frightened. She held the quilt even moretightly.

“What’s the matter with you? Why don’t you put it on? Fine. It’s your choice.” The woman threw theshirt in front of her, left the room, and locked the door.

It was the next day. The woman went back to Venus’s room. But she found shockingly that Venus wasstill in that position. She didn’t move at all. But she already put the shirt on. She looked at the door

when she heard the crack.

“You are up so early. Get off the bed. I’ll help you to wash your face.”

Venus calmed down a lot. She let the woman help her to brush her hair and wash her face. But whenshe heard the man’s voice, she was still frightened, and she moved closer to the woman for protection.

The woman felt sympathetic. But that doesn’t mean she changed her mind about selling Venus toGawa. After all, she could make sixty thousand by selling her.

“Just stay away! She is terrified of you!” The woman said to her husband.

The man was not in a good mood because he didn’t get what he wants last night. He said: “Why areyou so nice to her?”

“Just go to work!” The woman shouted. She knew what was on her husband’s mind, and she had tomake him stay away from Venus.

The man walked away while saying: “Make some boiled meat this afternoon. I haven’t eaten boiledmeat for a very long time.”

“Alright.”

That afternoon, Gawa came to the woman’s place with a box of gifts. Many people came with Gawabecause they were very curious about Venus.

The woman felt very nervous when she saw so many people coming. After all, Venus isn’t herhusband’s cousin and she lied about it. She didn’t let these people get into the house and she said:“Just go back! All of you! You will see her tomorrow because tomorrow is the wedding day.”

She didn’t want Gawa to hold a wedding. She wanted him to keep a low-profile. But Gawa’s parentsdisagree. They insisted on holding a great wedding ceremony. After all, this is a very big occasion fortheir son.The woman had no choice but to agree.

Gawa and his parents had already decorated their home. Gawa is 180 cm tall and he is very well-built.He looks just like everyone else but he is a little bit retarded. And people could notice it from the way hetalks.

Gawa knew he would soon be a bridegroom and he was filled with joy. When people saw him, theyalways say: “Gawa, you will have a wife tomorrow. Congratulations.” And Gawa would say:“Wife...wife...” And they would say: “What a fool.”

That afternoon, Mr Zhong went to Gawa’s place to prepare the things that would be needed fortomorrow’s wedding. Two women were picking the vegetables in the garden, and they talked vigorouslyabout the wedding.

“People say Gawa’s wife is very beautiful. She looks like someone from the big cities.”

“Really? Gawa is so lucky.”

“But the girl is blind and retarded. I don’t think Gawa is lucky.”

“You are worrying too much. All she needs to do is to give birth to children, so that his family’s bloodlinecan keep going.”

“Yeah. I guess you are right. Where is she from?”

“She is from another village. Her family doesn’t want her anymore because she is retarded, so theyasked her cousin to find a husband for her.”

Mr Zhong listened to their conversation while he was making the sauce. And he learned somethingabout this wedding.

The next day, before the sun was up, Venus was dragged out of her bed and washed and brushed. Thewoman dressed her in a traditional wedding dress on which a dragon and a phoenix were embroidered.She then put powder on her face and used lipstick on her lips.

The makeup was actually unnecessary. Venus is beautiful with or without the makeup. And she lookedstunningly beautiful in that red wedding dress.
