Traveling through famine: The space peasant girl
Chapter 260: Need to Inquire
"Because my mother had a disease when she gave birth to me, my father always asked her to take medicine to regulate her body. But I suddenly remembered that when she was in the Shao family, my mother never took any medicine, not even after she came back. Why doesn't a patient need to take medicine every day? There is not even any smell of medicine on her body. This is not right.
Normally, shouldn't a person who takes medicine every day have a scent of Chinese medicine on his body? Just like Sister Wang, who has been drinking snow lotus porridge for some time. When I get close to Sister Wang, I can smell the fragrance of snow lotus on her body, and it lingers for a long time. You know, the smell of Chinese medicine is very pungent, how could it be possible to have no smell at all?
And mother seems to be very strong, stronger than you can imagine. Even when she hit me last night, I had no power to resist. If you don't believe me, look at my face now. The red mark has not disappeared yet.
I used hot compress with eggs last night, and even used hot water and powder this morning, but it still couldn't cover the mark.
The swelling still hasn't gone down. Daddy probably thought that the swelling on my face would go down this morning, but it didn't. It's even a little redder and swollen again, but it's only a little better than last night."
Mr. Liu stopped and looked at his daughter's face silently. He always kept a distance between his daughter and his daughter. After all, they were not real father and daughter. Therefore, he always maintained gentlemanly etiquette and never got too close to his daughter. Even when he took his daughter to live with a friend for a while, he stayed far away from her. After all, his cousin was sick, and he couldn't get too close to his daughter. He was worried that the woman would have a seizure.
When Yingying was still little, he held her in his arms a few times, and several of his cousins asked him like crazy if he had fallen in love with their daughter. He was so scared that he didn't go home for several days, and even walked around the child every time.
He would never give anyone a hard time, but after hearing what his daughter said, he slowly approached his daughter and looked at the marks on her face. It was indeed very red and swollen, and even the handprint had not gone down at all. You have to know that this had been going on for a whole night. Last night he heard the sound of his daughter making a fire and boiling eggs. He thought the swelling would go away this morning, but it didn't. So where did his cousin get the strength to hit this child?
You know, ever since Liu Ying was born, the doctor told him that his cousin was weak and needed to take medicine all the time. The medicine included an expensive ginseng as the main ingredient, so the medicine became more and more expensive. He didn't doubt it. After all, it was normal for medicine to be a little expensive, and it wasn't that expensive. Mr. Liu's family still had some financial resources, otherwise they couldn't have supported him traveling back and forth to look for someone in the past few years.
But now he seems to have begun to doubt whether his cousin really went to treat the illness, or whether his cousin lied to him?
"Yingying, tell me about your mother's recent situation. I haven't been close to your mother for a long time. After all, your mother is not a good-tempered person. She is either angry or angry. I can't do anything about it. I didn't even know your mother had such great strength. I was only close to her when your mother gave birth. In the past ten years, I never got close to her."
Liu Ying pursed her lips. In her memory, her mother seemed to have never taken medicine. Even when her father gave her money every month, her mother would disappear that day and come back at night. When she came back, she would bring some food, which looked like leftovers. These things were usually for her. Then, in the rest of the days, after her father went out to teach, she would not go out, or when he occasionally went out, he would not take her with him and let her stay at home to look after the house. Every time she came back, she would even bring a lot of delicious food, but they were all packed leftovers. Even the leftovers were delicious, anyway, better than what her mother cooked.
That's why she was sure that her mother didn't take the so-called medicine at all. If she took the medicine normally, wouldn't it be at a fixed time?
But sometimes his mother stays at home all day and never goes out. Can the apprentice in the pharmacy bring the prepared medicine to you?
How is this possible? The pharmacy is very busy every day, so it has no time to take care of them. You know, the money her father gave her at the beginning was not enough for the money delivered to the door. Anyway, since she could remember, her mother had never touched medicine except when she caught a cold. After she boiled medicine for her mother a few times, she never touched medicine again.
"I don't know much about my mother's whereabouts, I just have suspicions. Anyway, as far as I can remember, on the first day my father asked my mother for money, my mother would go out with my father to teach, and then they would go out together.
Then she would go home an hour before her father came back, stay outside for a day, and then stay at home for at least a few days, not going out, and she didn't see anyone coming to deliver medicine.
Every time they brought back a lot of leftovers from someone else's meal, not only fish and meat, but also a lot of sweet little cakes, which were so delicious. It was only then that I found teeth marks on a piece of cake and realized it was the leftover food that was packed up.
About every seven days, after my father left, my mother would pack up and go out directly. She would not come back until evening, about an hour or more than half an hour before my father returned. She would let me eat and then go to sleep in my room, without letting me say hello to my father.
That's why I doubt whether my mother took the so-called medicine at all.
Well, I used the money for other things. After all, the food I brought back was always delicious, and tasted very similar to what my father used to take away at Chunhe Restaurant. "
Mr. Liu paused slightly, looked back in the direction of Jizhou City, and then continued to walk forward in silence. Even if he discovered a problem at this moment, he could not turn back. He had to arrange everything for his daughter first and then come back to find out what his cousin had done over the years. If he could find any clues, the custody of Yingying would be directly given to him, and the child would be able to escape from his clutches.
After her daughter got married, she basically stayed in the inner house for a long time and rarely went out, so even if Cui Shunrong wanted to find her, he might not be able to find her. This would also make the child live more comfortably.
How could he not notice that his cousin seemed to be worried? He also did not smell any medicine on her. For someone who had to take medicine every day, he had never doubted that there was no smell of medicine on her body. How foolish he was.
However, this matter could not be told to his daughter, so Mr. Liu directly reminded Liu Ying that after all, some things still need to be covered up, otherwise he could not just take the child away. He wanted to settle the child, so he came back directly to deal with Cui Shunrong.
"Daddy knows about this matter, so don't interfere. I'll take you to Jeju City to live for a while. I'll send someone back to investigate. Otherwise, it'll easily alert them, and I might not be able to win over them. After all, you are his biological daughter.
Even if I come back, Dad doesn't plan to take you back to Jizhou City directly. Your mother has gone crazy and wants to sell you to the Shao family, so if you want to get rid of this woman, you absolutely cannot come back.
I told you yesterday that I have a yard over there, and you can live there for a few days. Then, I will take care of your mother's affairs, and then I will take you back and find you a better and more affluent family. You can live a good life with them. Daddy has taught you the sage books, and you know what is good and what is bad. "
When Liu Ying heard that her father was going to find a husband for her, she couldn't help but blush and lowered her head, then said softly
"Then listen to father, let's go quickly."
