Quick Wear: If I Had Regret Medicine
Chapter 84 The Drowned Cousin 1
It was almost morning when Xuanhe woke up. She felt very cold. The clothes she was wearing were too short. The quilt covering her did not give her any warmth and was drafty.
The system popped up at this time, [Do you feel cold now? It will be dawn soon. ]
"I can still hold it in. It's okay."
Xuanhe touched his hand and began to think about the plot of this world.
The original owner is only fifteen years old this year, and it is a small ancient world.
Lin Xuanhe, who lived in a small village in the Great Qi Dynasty, had a quiet temperament since childhood.
Her grandparents had three children in total, including Lin Xuanhe's father Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan gave birth to three children in total. The original owner is the eldest child, who is fifteen years old this year, and the remaining two children are a pair of twin boys.
They are twelve years old this year and are also obedient children.
My second uncle, Lin Mo, and Lin Yuan, are twins. They also have three children. The eldest pair of children are also twins, a boy and a girl, and the youngest is only three years old this year.
There is another one, Uncle Lin, whose name is Lin Ling. He is married and has two children, both sons, who are eight years old this year.
The Lin family's financial situation is not very good, and they have not yet split up, so the whole family lives together.
Especially in the past two years, due to the drought, the crops in the fields have not been good and we can’t even get enough food to eat.
In her previous life, the original owner had always been a well-behaved girl, and the Xiaolin family had arranged a marriage for her.
She was supposed to get married at the age of sixteen, which was after the New Year, but she didn't expect that in her previous life, the original owner died this winter.
In the previous life, the original owner was pushed into the river by his cousin Lin Ruru when he went to the river to wash clothes this winter.
The original owner went to wash clothes early in the morning. It was still dark and there were few people on the road early in the morning.
Each room in the Lin family washes their own clothes, but they take turns washing clothes for Grandpa Lin and Grandma Lin every month.
Lin Xuanhe went out to wash clothes that day, but she didn't expect that Lin Ruru would follow her and push her into the river when she wasn't paying attention.
When Lin Ruru pushed him into the river, she kept muttering, "Cousin, don't hate me. I don't want you to die, but you're in my way. Only when you die can I get married!"
After Lin Xuanhe died and turned into a ghost, he realized that his cousin was a wandering ghost from nowhere, who came here just to snatch his marriage.
Watching her in the Lin family, she not only killed her parents, but also killed her two younger brothers.
However, despite all Lin Ruru's calculations, she still did not get the chance to marry. It was all in vain.
The original owner's wish was to take revenge and make Lin Ruru die a miserable death.
Xuanhe pulled at his clothes and found that they were too short in the middle of winter.
Unable to even cover his wrists, Xuanhe sighed.
It was almost dawn, so she just got up.
As soon as I got up, I saw that my mother Shen had already gotten up. She was cleaning the house. She was a little surprised to see Xuanhe got up.
"Why are you up so early? You can still sleep a little longer. There's nothing to do right now, so you don't need to get up."
"It's okay. I got up because I couldn't sleep."
The quilt that Xuanhe had just slept on was very hard, and she could not feel any warmth when she covered herself with it.
"Okay, don't wash the clothes now. It's cold now. I'll wash them later."
When Xuanhe heard this, she did not answer. Anyway, when the original owner was around, it was her job to do the laundry.
"It's okay, I'll go wash it, I'm fast."
Xuanhe tidied herself up and took her clothes to the river. After she got there, she planned to use the cleaning technique to wash her clothes.
It wouldn't take much time anyway, and it was still dark. Xuanhe walked out the door, and not long after, he felt someone following him. He just stopped when he saw someone on the road.
Xuanhe knew that the person following her was Lin Ruru, but the original owner died three days later in her previous life. It seemed that Lin Ruru already had this plan.
When Xuanhe went to the river, he pretended to wash a few clothes, and then used the cleaning technique to clean all the clothes in an instant.
In the middle of winter, washing clothes in the river makes the clothes very dirty. On normal days, it would take more than half an hour to wash them.
When the time was about the same as usual, Xuanhe picked up the clothes and went back. Along the way, she met many people who came out to fetch water to wash clothes.
In fact, there was a well in the Lin family, but Grandma Lin didn't allow them to use the water from the well to wash clothes.
As for the reason, it is waste.
When Xuanhe returned, all the Lin family members were up and working in the yard.
Shen had already brought the meal to the dining room. On the table, there was only a large plate of porridge.
After she hung up the clothes, she went over and saw that the meal was already served.
After sitting in his seat, Xuanhe saw a bowl full of porridge.
She looked at everyone at the table. The one sitting at the head seat was Grandpa Lin, who was eating in silence.
His hair had turned grey, but during the meal he made arrangements for his family.
"I will be going to work in a few days. Who do you think should go this time?"
The work Grandpa Lin mentioned was the canal repair work that takes place every winter. Every family can have one person go, but everyone who goes gets skinned every time.
They rotated every year, and after discussion among the three sons, the remaining two sons would take charge of the land reclamation.
In the Lin family, as soon as they stopped, they would go to reclaim wasteland. Now it was stipulated that all the wasteland reclaimed belonged to them.
Every winter, they would go to open up wasteland so that they could grow more food for their family.
“I’ll go this year.”
The person who exited was Lin Yuan. In fact, the three of them took turns. He was the eldest son, so naturally he was the first one to choose to build the ditch.
The weather this year is much colder than in previous years, but maybe it will be even colder next year!
Moreover, there was wages for repairing the ditch, which amounted to several hundred coins.
The bulk of the money must be handed over to the family, and the rest belongs to you.
"Okay, then the second and third brothers will follow me to open up the wasteland."
According to previous practice, if Lin's father went to repair the ditch, Shen would do housework at home, and the other two sisters-in-law would follow to open up wasteland.
Liu felt uncomfortable when she thought about having to go out to open up wasteland in such a cold weather.
She glanced at Bao who was eating nearby. She was wiping the mouths of her two children and seemed not to notice her gaze.
And An just lowered her head. She knew that Liu would definitely cause trouble, so she didn't want to pay any attention to her.
Working at home is hard enough anyway, so why fight for it!
No one else in the Lin family said anything, and Lin Ruru felt a little unwilling.
She had just traveled here a month ago and found out that she had traveled to this book, and that her cousin was not the heroine in the book, but a passerby.
The heroine and Passerby A are from the same village, but the heroine is the daughter of the village chief, and her family conditions are much better than those of their Lin family.
In the past month or so, she has had enough of this kind of life, eating sorghum porridge every day.
Sometimes I can’t even get enough to eat, and I only have two meals a day. I haven’t eaten meat for a long time.
She looked at Lin Xuanhe beside her. She was drinking the porridge in the bowl with her head down. Looking at her gentle appearance from the side, Lin Ruru felt a little unconvinced.
Both are daughters of the Lin family, but why does she look so ordinary, while Lin Xuanhe looks so beautiful?
Lin Xuanhe was sitting there now. Even though the clothes she was wearing had turned white from washing, her long hair was tied up with a band. She was as beautiful as a fairy, with a face like a peach blossom. There was a red rope tied around her fair wrist, which looked very beautiful on Lin Xuanhe's wrist.
Every member of the Lin family has a red rope, but the red rope on his wrist feels different from Lin Xuanhe's.
The person she is going to marry is a scholar. In the original book, the marriage between Lin Xuanhe and Mo An was arranged by Grandpa Lin and the old man of the Mo family.
The two people are three years apart in age. Mo An is now eighteen years old and is a scholar.
He is very good at studying. His family conditions are much better than those of the Lin family. The Lin family has no money to let any of their grandchildren go to school, but every grandchild of the Mo family can go to school.
Among them, Mo An is the best academically and will achieve good results next year.
The most important thing is that in the original book, it is introduced that Mo An's appearance is stunning.
She had been living a hard life in the Lin family for a month and had long wanted to move to another place to live.
And the best choice is to marry Mo An.
However, when the Mo family and the Lin family decided on the marriage, the person they specifically mentioned was Lin Xuanhe.
She had thought of a solution these days, that is, as long as Li Xuanhe was not in this world, then this marriage would definitely fall on her.
Don't blame her for being cruel. In her eyes, these people are all NPCs, and she won't feel any burden if they die.
For the sake of her future life, she must marry Mo An.
Otherwise, if she gets married like those girls in the same village, she will not only have to serve a whole family every day, but also not have enough food and clothing.
She had been looking for an opportunity these days, and the only opportunity was when Lin Xuanhe went out to do laundry.
Lin Xuanhe went out to do laundry alone every morning, and it was quite early. She just had to follow him quietly and push Lin Xuanhe into the water, since Lin Xuanhe couldn't swim anyway.
No one saw it at that time, and people just thought that Lin Xuanhe accidentally fell into the water and drowned.
The river near the village has a very strong current and several people drown every year.
Xuanhe felt the gazes from the side, raised his head, looked at Lin Ruru who was staring at him, and looked into her eyes.
Lin Ruru turned her gaze away, feeling dissatisfied. Why couldn't she, after traveling through time, be given a beautiful appearance like Lin Xuanhe?
Her physical appearance was inherited from Liu. She had a very ordinary look, but her elder brother and younger brother took after her father.
Xuanhe ate his meal absentmindedly. He had no idea what the porridge was made of. It had no taste and was very watery.
After this meal, there was only one meal left, in the evening, and she was starting to feel hungry.
Fortunately, there are a lot of food in her space, so she can just eat something secretly later.
The original owner usually helped with housework at home and did embroidery.
She could still make a few cents by selling the things she made in town.
As for the other children, they all went to open up wasteland after dinner.
When Xuanhe was sitting in the house packing his things, he saw Shen coming in.
"You haven't eaten much today. This has eggs. Eat it quickly."
After saying that, he stuffed the eggs into the mouths of Xuanhe and Shen and walked out.
Xuanhe looked at the egg in his hand. It was still warm. All the eggs in the house were locked in Grandma Lin’s room. Where did Shen get these eggs?
Looking at the egg in his hand, Xuanhe ate it and then went out.
Lin Yuan and Shen both doted on her. As the first child in the family, although Grandpa Lin and Grandma Lin did not love her as much as their grandson, they treated her much better than many other families.
If she returned the egg that Shen had just given her to Shen, or shared it with Shen, Shen would not want it. When the original owner was alive, Shen would give her eggs from time to time.
She walked out the door and felt cold as soon as she went out. In fact, she didn't know where to go, so she just looked around here.
Then look in the space to see if there is anything that can be used now, and also eat something.
After confirming that there was no one around, Xuanhe took out a bowl of packaged century egg and lean meat porridge from the space. After eating a few bites, he felt his stomach felt much better.
After eating and drinking, Xuanhe walked towards the back mountain. There was a desolate area behind him. It was winter and there was no green on the mountain.
The dead branches and leaves on the ground were taken back by the villagers. The leaves were used to feed the animals at home, and the branches were used to make firewood.
On the way, Xuanhe met many children. These children were running around in the back mountain and could search the whole mountain in a whole day.
However, there is a whole mountain behind the mountain, and the children only play in the front. They are stopped by the adults at home and are not allowed to go to the back.
Xuanhe carried a small backpack and slowly walked towards the forest.
Many of the children she met on the street looked at her embarrassedly, because the original owner was very beautiful, and these children always looked very embarrassed every time they saw her.
When she passed by, the children looked at her from behind and said, "Sister Lin is so pretty, even prettier than my sister."
"She's prettier than my sister, too. And every time my brother looks at Lin's sister, he gets embarrassed and his face turns red like a monkey's butt."
"It would be great if Sister Lin could be my sister-in-law." A little girl said longingly.
"If anyone wants to be the sister-in-law, it should be my sister-in-law!" Someone immediately started arguing nearby, and several children were arguing fiercely about who would be the sister-in-law of the Xuanhe family.
Xuanhe couldn't find out what was going on here. She came up the mountain mainly to see if she would encounter the ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum mentioned in the novels.
But her luck was bad and she didn't see anything, so she couldn't help but ask the system.
"System, check whether there are any ginseng or other medicines on this mountain."
[Host, you think too much. If there are these things on this mountain, it will not be your turn. But I have detected other things. Do you want us to take a look? ]
