Quick travel: The poor little thing in the period novel strikes back
Chapter 38: The Sixth Generation Bride 6
What you see are broken window frames, a bumpy dirt floor, and a leaky roof that keeps dripping water inside.
After observing the dilapidated environment around him, the original body's memory transmitted by the system arrived.
The original owner was named Shi Xiaolian. She was an orphan who fled to Taohua Village in the 1960s to escape famine. Because she could not survive, the widow Wang at the head of the village used a bag of rice in exchange for a bag of rice to bring back to her dying eldest son.
It was just said that it was for the good of the eldest son, but in fact, this eldest son was just the posthumous child left by Wang Guafu's late husband's ex-wife. Although Wang Guafu raised him and there was some mother-son affection, people's hearts are always biased. She already had her own son and her husband was gone, so she had a tuberculotic, illegitimate eldest son. Not only did she have to spend a large amount of extra medical expenses every month, but the eldest son could not do any work.
There was a famine at that time, and Widow Wang had stopped giving her eldest son's medicine for half a month. Seeing that he was dying, in order to avoid being criticized by the villagers, she exchanged a bag of brown rice for a bride for good luck. Then, on the pretext that he was already married, she packed up her eldest son and his cheap daughter-in-law and threw them into an abandoned shabby house in the village on the wedding night.
All they got when the family split up were a few rags, an old quilt, an enamel pot, and a bag of brown rice from the original owner. In the end, they left the message: After all, they are not biological mother and son, so they should avoid suspicion in the future, and told their eldest son not to have any contact with them after he gets married.
The original body was a very simple person, and her wish was to marry the bully of the village chief's family so that the lazy guys in the village would never dare to bully her again.
The original body was a delicate beauty with no opinion of her own, otherwise she would not have been fooled by Widow Wang and agreed to be a bride for good luck. But Shi Xiaolian was not a lucky person. Her cheap husband died on the wedding night, and Widow Wang even complained that the original body was a jinx. The original body was helpless and had a bad reputation, so no one wanted to associate with her. She could only wander around the mountains every day to find some wild vegetables to eat, and finally she was targeted by the lazy man in the village.
These people just teased her verbally at first, but later they started to physically assault her. Shi Xiaolian couldn't bear it anymore, and when she was blocked on the mountain by the lazy guys again, she jumped off the cliff to end her life.
After understanding the memories of the original body, Shi Yan could no longer stand there stupidly, because the original body's cheap husband was now breathing more than breathing, and if she didn't do something, she would be labeled a husband-killer.
"Auntie, Auntie, Auntie Liu, please open the door, please help me!"
Zhao Ze and his younger brothers had just hunted some wild game in the mountains today. In order to prevent his fair father from accusing him of taking advantage of the public, he stood in the mountains for half the night in the cold wind to get rid of the smell on his body before climbing over the wall and returning home.
At this moment, he was taking a cold bath in the yard when he suddenly heard a woman's mournful cry coming from outside the door. He was so scared that he shivered and all the hairs on his body stood up.
Throwing the soap in his hand aside, Zhao Ze went to open the gate with his bare chest angrily.
"Who is it? Playing tricks in the middle of the night, are you......"
Before Zhao Ze could finish his words, someone jumped into his arms.
The woman in his arms was only as tall as his chin. She was very thin, with an skinny face that was an unhealthy sallow color. Her eyes were dark and contained a watery glow that made people sway physically and mentally.
"Who are you? I'm looking for Aunt Liu, wuwuwuwu..."
The person in his arms waved his hands in panic to push him away. The force of the push was not strong, but every time the soft little hands touched his exposed chest, it brought a tingling sensation.
"Don't cry, don't cry, you're looking for my mom, right? I'll go get her for you, she'll be here soon, don't cry!"
Zhao Ze held the person's shoulders in a panic, asked her to stand aside, and turned around to knock on his parents' door. The village chief and his wife in the house had heard the noise outside a long time ago. They had just tidied up and hurriedly opened the door and walked out.
"What happened, you little brat? Did you bully someone outside? That little girl came to me in the middle of the night out of grievance!"
Without saying a word, Liu Cuimiao slapped her own brat on the head, then turned around and looked at Shi Yan, who was still crying, with a gentle and caring look.
"Hey, Xiao Lian, why are you here? It's the middle of the night, is there something wrong with your Liang Zhi?"
"Aunt, Zhige and I moved into the old house next to yours this morning, and he has been feeling unwell. I know he has been ill for a long time, so I wanted to make some medicine for him, but he told me he has stopped taking the medicine for half a month."
"It is said that he has been separated from his family now, so naturally he can no longer go to his stepmother to get money to buy medicine. Brother Zhi said that he just needed to lie down, but he didn't expect that he couldn't wake up after lying down no matter how much we called him."
"I have just arrived in the village and I have no money. I have no choice but to ask you for help. Please help me. I will do anything for you from now on."
It is particularly heartbreaking to see a beautiful woman crying. Liu Cuimiao had inquired about the situation when the two of them moved next door in the morning. Naturally, she knew that the young couple had a hard time. However, as outsiders, she did not interrupt the couple until they asked for help. Now that they came to her door, she naturally could not ignore it.
"Xiao Lian, don't cry. Go home and wait for me. I'll ask your brother Ze to ask the village doctor to come over. I'll boil some hot water for you. If there are any difficulties at home, your aunt and your uncle Zhao will definitely help you."
"Yeah." After getting the answer she wanted, Shi Yan did not stay in the village chief's house any longer. She wiped her tears and went back to the shabby yard next door.
On the bed in the room, the skinny man was motionless, as if he had lost all sound, but if you looked closely, you could still see his chest slightly rising and falling.
It can only maintain the man's temporary vitality. Shi Yan is using her plant-related abilities to keep him alive. However, the man's insides are already rotten, and now he is just a breathing living dead. As long as Shi Yan doesn't inject her plant-related abilities into the man every half a day, the man on the bed will immediately die of organ failure.
Shi Yan silently apologized to the man in her heart. When he got what she deserved from the division of the family property and erased her reputation as a jinx, she would definitely give the man a quick death.
"Alas, I have no other options now. I had medicine to keep me going in the past, so maybe I could live another two or three years. But now I have stopped taking the medicine for a while, and my body has completely collapsed. Please accept my condolences, child. Please prepare for my funeral."
The old village doctor shook his head with some reluctance, an expression of reluctance and regret on his kind face. He picked up the medicine box beside him and prepared to leave.
"Grandpa Village Doctor, please save Brother Zhi, please, he clearly talked to me during the day, how could he become like this?"
The old village doctor looked at the little girl crying miserably in front of him, feeling so pitiful that he had no choice but to put down the medicine box again.
"Child, I know you just got married. If this boy dies, it will not be good for your reputation. But even if you don't marry him, he won't live for two days. The only thing I can do now is to prescribe some painkillers to reduce his pain. If he feels sorry for you being alone, he should be able to hold on for a few more days without the pain."
"One day is one day. Uncle Wu, please prescribe the medicine. I will let my brat go with you to get the medicine later."
