After Marrying a Vegetative Princess, I Went Crazy With Joy!

Chapter 20: One month, the recognised Su Li!



In the following days, Su Li carried on with his usual routine of working tirelessly and taking advantage of every opportunity to earn points. At night, he would lie by Princess Changle’s bedside, holding her little hand as he slept. He did this in order to keep track of her condition and assist her in turning over her posture.

During the day, he would personally feed Princess Changle and entertain her with stories after his massage activities. Unless there were exceptional circumstances, Su Li would spend his entire day by Princess Changle’s side. He even shortened his meal times to the bare minimum, as he knew that there were limited opportunities to earn points, and he wanted to make the most of them.

To Su Li, the marriage contract that many regarded with pity had changed his fate for the better. Without it, he would still waste his time toiling away in the fields. While others saw him as unlucky for marrying a dying princess and being forced to be buried with her, Su Li saw Princess Changle as a beacon of hope that had saved his life.

He knew that the system mall page would eventually refresh with a panacea that could heal Princess Changle. Without this marriage contract, he would be nothing. Thus, even if he had to work tirelessly to earn points, he did it not just for show but also for Princess Changle’s sake.

For Princess Changle, Su Li’s arrival had initially caused panic. No one would want to suddenly marry a stranger, especially when they were in a state where they could not control themselves, see, speak, or move. However, Su Li’s presence in her life made her happier. He brought light into her dark prison of consciousness, which might have been her only ray of hope.

Overall, Su Li’s commitment to his duties and his compassion for Princess Changle demonstrated that this marriage contract was not just a burden but a gift that brought unexpected blessings to both parties.

Every night, she could feel a pair of large, rough hands holding her palms as she fell asleep. Even if she became conscious at night, she no longer had to fear the dark and empty silence. The pitch-black cage of consciousness was no longer icy, as she could always feel the warmth of his palm. And every morning when she woke up, the warmth was still there.

He would gently feed her food, and after Su Li’s arrival, Princess Changle’s diet finally began to diversify. Though it was still only liquid food, there were other tastes in her mouth – crushed egg whites, juiced fruits, and vegetables. Finally, the bitterness in her mouth was no longer the same after years of monotony.

Princess Changle found that she gradually grew used to Su Li and began to adapt to this kind of life. This was truly an incredible situation, considering that marriage was still a long way off for her. In a sudden and unexpected turn of events, she became someone’s wife, but she couldn’t do anything herself. However, her husband ‘Su Li’ had already taken care of everything.

He was careful. After taking the bitter Chinese medicine, Su Li would often give her some sweet honey water to drink, spoonful by spoonful. Although she couldn’t speak, he seemed to have heard everything.

He would take her to move her body every day, and she could finally feel the warm sunshine and the earth. He would describe everything around them vividly, even though she couldn’t see anything. And he would tell her many strange stories, such as the soul ring of a dead wife who turned into a fighting spirit, making their dull days a little more interesting.

Even though Princess Changle had grown quite used to Su Li’s existence, she was still shy whenever there was physical contact. Even after a month, she still vividly remembered their first kiss.

“My lady, it’s time to go out and bask in the sun!” Su Li leaned over and picked up Princess Changle.

Princess Changle paused her wild thoughts and looked up at Su Li, feeling overjoyed. She really wanted to respond, but unfortunately, she was still unable to speak. She began to celebrate in the sense of security and rich life that Su Li had given her. She had truly accepted Su Li.

The governor of the princess mansion watched as Su Li picked up Princess Changle again and walked out of the room, heading towards the warm sun. A trance flashed in the female officer’s eyes.

In the blink of an eye, a month had passed. Initially, the female officer had doubted whether this inexplicable newcomer’s son-in-law was just posturing. She did not believe in love, nor did she believe in so-called love at first sight. However, she never stopped Su Li. She felt that even if it was an act, as long as Su Li acted well enough and Princess Changle could feel it, she might feel a lot better.

After all, she had watched Princess Changle grow up with her own eyes and knew Princess Changle too well. As Su Li said, if Princess Changle was conscious, how terrible would it be for her?

That was right… She had always thought that Su Li’s initial gesture was just a faux pas.

From the very beginning, Su Li did not sleep in bed, but when he first arrived, he was considerate and kind, and his intent to show off was too obvious.

However, now his heart was shaken. It had been a month, and while others might not have noticed, the female officer could see everything. Su Li had been taking care of Princess Changle meticulously. Apart from grooming and cleaning the princess after excretion, which was the responsibility of the female officer, Su Li took the initiative to do everything else. He would massage and stretch the princess’s body, tell stories to her, and even sleep next to her on a small bench at night, even though there were two beds in the room.

Even more commendable was that Su Li had not overdone it during this period. For a month, he had been extremely gentle every moment. There was no dissatisfaction against Princess Changle, no moments of laziness or dislike. The female officer saw all of this. Su Li’s tenderness seemed inexhaustible, and even when the female officer looked at him suspiciously, there was nothing to criticize.

This newly arrived son-in-law had stayed with Princess Changle all the time for a month, except for eating and going to the bathroom. Even his hair was a little knotted, his beard was a little messy, and even his clothes were a little dirty. He had not even been groomed in a month. With such intensive care, he was still as gentle as before, and the female officer could tell that Su Li was genuinely willing, without any dissatisfaction or compulsion.

As the saying goes, there was no dutiful son before bedtime for a long time. The same was true between husband and wife. Su Li was able to provide such care when facing a partner who could not move or talk. In her heart, the female officer had completely recognized Su Li as a son-in-law.

Walking towards the door, the female officer observed Su Li sitting with his arms around Princess Changle, as always, carefully describing the surrounding scenery to her. His voice was still gentle, and a smile appeared on the female officer’s face. It did not matter what Su Li’s origin was, whether he was a peasant or something else. There was no doubt that he was the perfect match for the princess.

“Go and boil some water,” the female officer instructed the maid beside her, a smile still on her face.

“Look at our son-in-law. He’s already very busy!” Several maids looked at each other in confusion before hurrying off to prepare things for bathing joyfully. If the female officer saw it, then why didn’t they ‘the maids’ see it?

Whether Su Li deserved to a princess was another matter, but what he had done had already convinced everyone in the princess’s mansion of his worth.
