All the members are good people, only the host is a pervert
Chapter 113 Stepmother 7
The sofa was made of wood and only had a thin cushion on it, but Lin Ruan didn't care. She curled up obediently like a baby.
The system watched silently for a moment, saying nothing. It had rarely seen Lin Ruan so vulnerable and lost before, and it was unaccustomed to seeing her, so it simply dove into the space.
Lin Ruan didn't know what she was doing. She just felt like she had returned to her infancy, swaying in a small quilt, as if her soul was floating up with it.
"Ruanruan? Ruanruan?" The voice became clearer from being vague. She opened her eyes and looked over. It was Lin's mother who came over. She said in a gentle voice: "It's time to eat. Go wash your hands."
Lin Ruan nodded in agreement and went into the bathroom. She not only washed her hands but also her face.
The girl in the mirror was pale, her eyes slightly swollen, and she looked a little unwell. But Lin Ruan just stared at herself for a few seconds and walked out of the bathroom as if nothing had happened.
At the dinner table, Lin's father and mother were chatting. When they saw Lin Ruan come out, they both stopped talking. Lin's mother and father enthusiastically served food to Lin Ruan, who lowered her head and ate without saying a word. The family finished the meal in silence, and no one spoke again.
After finishing the meal, Father Lin said, "Ruanruan, tell me, have you been wronged in some way? Why did you come back so suddenly?"
It was just a simple question, but Lin Ruan's eyes suddenly turned red. She thought about her past lives, the times, and her fate, but she didn't realize that she was not the original owner.
"Dad, I got married. I fell into the water while picking grass for pigs and was rescued by someone. They said I had a bad reputation and forced me to marry that person."
Lin Ruan's words were like thunder. The dishes that Lin's mother was cleaning up fell to the ground with a clatter, and Lin's father stood up from the sofa.
"My dear," Lin's mother ignored the leftovers on the floor and ran over. She hugged Lin Ruan and started crying: "Who are those people? What era is it? Do you think you have to sacrifice your whole life just because you were saved? My dear, were you really scared at that time? Your parents were useless. They weren't by your side to protect you."
Father Lin was so angry that he was shaking all over. His lips trembled as he said, "Divorce! Dad will give you the job and go back with you to handle the divorce and return to the city. We won't stay here anymore."
Lin Ruan shook her head gently and sobbed, "Dad, he was a soldier and has returned to the army now. It's not that easy to get a divorce now."
Hearing their daughter say this, Lin's father and mother looked at each other, both of them showing deep worry. They didn't expect things to develop to this point, and their hearts were filled with helplessness and anxiety.
Father Lin was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke, "Ruanruan, do you know which unit that man is serving in? We can ask your brother to find him and talk to him to see if we can get a divorce. Dad is not against you getting married, but I can't accept you getting married in this way. This is a matter of life and death, and you can't give in for such a ridiculous reason."
Lin Ruan lowered her head, tears streaming down her face. She choked up and said, "I didn't want to do that either. That man has three children at home. If I get married, I'll become someone else's stepmother. But the villagers said harsh things at the time. The people at the educated youth site also said that I was ruining the reputation of the educated youth community and wouldn't let me live there. I had no choice, I had no choice."
Lin's mother hurried to comfort her, "Mom and Dad know it's not your fault. My dear, listen to me. You're also a victim in this matter. Mom and Dad just feel sorry for you, not blaming you. If you don't want to live with him, let's ask your brother to find him and ask him to divorce you, okay?"
Lin Ruan couldn't help it any longer, so she turned around and threw herself into Lin's mother's arms, howling loudly and calling "Mom" over and over again.
The system couldn't stand it any longer and had to interrupt Lin Ruan's immersive performance. It said quietly in Lin Ruan's mind: "Honestly, host, the original owner's previous life was not as aggrieved as you say, really. Did you play the wrong character?"
?[┐'_'┌]?
Lin Ruan's crying almost stopped.
Damn dog Seventeen, he ruined the miserable atmosphere she created.
She wiped away her tears, created a new persona for herself, and cheered herself up to comfort herself: "I know I'm a victim. Mom, Dad, I told that family when I got married that we only got married out of necessity. I'm still young and can't be a stepmother. And no matter which of us wants a divorce in the future, the other one has to agree."
Lin's parents were still worried. It wasn't that they thought too badly of the Gu family and Gu Jiye, but since it was their own daughter, they couldn't think too much. They even regretted that they, as parents, hadn't thought enough of Lin Ruan's going to the countryside!
The most difficult thing to accept had already been said, and she had vented a little. Lin Ruan was also satisfied with Lin's parents' reactions. Only then did she start to tell the good news. She said, "And getting married has its advantages. I found a job at the county hospital. I'm currently a temporary worker. After I study at night school for a year and pass the exam, I can become a regular doctor. From then on, I will be a serious junior doctor."
"Really?" Seeing Lin Ruan's joy, Mother Lin wiped her tears with her hands, held Lin Ruan's face in her hands, looked at her from left to right, and praised: "How can my daughter be so amazing!"
Father Lin was much calmer. The hospital rarely recruited externally, and all positions were internal referrals. Not only in Liaozhong County, but even in their Jing City hospitals, the same was true. He asked, "Ruanruan, how did you get the internal referral position?"
If she relied on the family she married into, she would have to prepare more things when discussing divorce.
Lin Ruan was now completely in high spirits. She smiled and said, "This is the second good news I want to tell you. Mom and Dad, come and see. Please be quiet. Don't let anyone hear."
There were five large packages in the living room, which were "carefully" imagined by Lin Ruan - two in each hand and one on the back.
She opened one of the large packages and found a thick layer of cotton cloth. Inside were some dried herbs, including Ligusticum chuanxiong, Schisandra chinensis, Astragalus membranaceus, Sophora flavescens, etc., all neatly wrapped. She took out five red cloth packages and said mysteriously, "Dad, Mom, open them and take a look."
Inside are all air-dried ginsengs. Judging from their thickness, there are probably two or three hundred years old. The remaining three are one several dozen years old and two more than ten years old.
Lin Ruan said, "This was when I first went to the countryside. I was picking grass for pigs and got lost. As I was walking, I found a clump of ginseng. The largest one was even bigger than this. After I got married, I took one of the 100-year-old ones and traded it with a hospital director for an internal referral. I got a bungalow, two gold bracelets, and 7,000 yuan. You don't have to send me money anymore. 7,000 yuan is more than enough for me. I have a job now."
Since all the packages were opened, Lin Ruan simply opened the three packages on the ground: four packages, one of which contained various medicinal herbs, one was full of dried meat and bacon, all of which were small game, such as pheasants and rabbits. Two packages were various dried goods that Lin Ruan brought back, including mushrooms, chestnuts, etc.
There was another package containing Lin Ruan's own clothes. Lin Ruan did not open it because she was afraid that it would be difficult to take it out if she needed it in the future.
Lin's father and mother had not yet recovered from the shock of the ginseng, and when they saw their daughter brought back so many things, they were shocked again.
Lin Ruan took out three small gourd-shaped porcelain bottles and whispered, "I secretly asked an old Chinese doctor to make life-saving pills from that 500-year-old ginseng. There are ten pills in each bottle, one for each of the four of us. You can send this to my eldest brother. I haven't dared to tell him about my situation yet, so I've asked my parents to do it for me."
The cold touch brought Lin's parents back to their senses. Mother Lin scolded them in a low voice, "Did you get all these things from the mountain? It's so dangerous up there, are you trying to save your life? We don't have anything at home. If you need anything, just call us. Why would you dare go up there?"
Lin Ruan stared at the open packages on the ground with two innocent eyes and said, "We don't have any of these at home."
Lin's mother was startled by Lin Ruan. Indeed, there were no such things at home.
But is this the point?!
This damn girl!
