Lin Ting scooped up the boiled eggs and put them into cold water, then changed the pot of water and cooked the wild amaranth.

There was no salt or any seasoning in the kitchen. All the precious things were locked up by Shen's mother.

The boiled wild vegetables were hard to swallow, but luckily there was an egg, which helped to slightly relieve the stomach cramps caused by hunger.

Shen Wanyi held the egg in both hands and ate it reluctantly in small bites. Lin Ting seemed to see himself in his previous life.

In her previous life, she was also a baby girl abandoned on the roadside. She grew up in an orphanage and was adopted by her master when she was ten years old.

Seeing Xiaobao like this, how is he different from myself back then?

"Xiaobao, if you don't finish this egg quickly, you won't have a chance to eat it when your great-grandfather comes back."

Lin Ting was not trying to scare Shen Wanyi. In this family, any good thing, even if you chewed it into pieces, Shen's mother would take it out of your mouth and feed it to Shen Jizu.

"But Xiaobao wants to save some for Daddy and Grandpa and Grandma."

Looking at Shen Wanyi who looked reluctant, Lin Ting felt sorry for her instinctively.

"They will have it later. Come on, Xiaobao, eat it. Your great-grandmother and the others will be home soon."

After Lin Ting finished eating something and his stomach pain subsided, he remembered that his clothes were still wet.

It was a thin piece of clothing that was already half dry and had starch on it. It was also half dry and extremely uncomfortable to wear.

She took Xiaobao back to the room, and as soon as she opened the door, a unpleasant smell hit her face.

The whole room smelled musty and stank of sweat soaking into clothes that hadn't been washed for years.

No matter how miserable Lin Ting's previous life was, he had never lived in such a smelly house.

With the help of the light from outside the door, Lin Ting searched for a while before finding a relatively clean, but faded, patched old piece of clothing for Xiaobao to wear.

She didn't have any clean clothes of her own, let alone new ones.

Not only did the original owner not work, but he also didn't care about his own hygiene except for eating.

The hair is sticky and the body is covered with a layer of black keratin secreted by the human body's pores.

In addition, after soaking in the water, the mud on her body floated out and she felt disgusted.

Shen Wanyi is cleaned by her mother-in-law, so she is cleaner than her.

Looking at the dirty and smelly room and herself, Lin Ting decided to clean herself up first.

She asked Shen Wanyi to wait outside the door, and she brought two basins of water into the house. She also took out two soapberries picked last year from the door and washed them.

Rub the soap nuts into bubbles and wash your hair first. The original owner never took care of her long hair, and it was unkempt all day long.

After styling your hair, use the bubbles made from soap nuts to give yourself a good bath.

Even in the morning in summer, it is very hot, so a cold shower is just right for Lin Ting.

After washing, she felt refreshed, but she had no clean clothes to wear, so she could only find a piece of Shen Qingzhou's clean clothes at the foot of the bed and put them on.

Shen Qingzhou's legs are disabled, but he can still wash his own clothes.

Lin Ting really admired the original owner. Not only did he abuse others, but he also didn't let himself go.

After tidying herself up, Lin Ting took out all the dirty clothes and bedding, and even tidied Shen Qingzhou's bed.

It’s morning now and the sun is shining brightly, so you can take a shower and sleep soundly at night.

After all, this was most likely where she would be staying for the next few days.

She is not the original owner, and she cannot live in such a dirty place.

Seeing that Lin Ting had washed herself clean, Shen Wanyi looked up and observed her in confusion.

"Mom, you look better today."

Shen Wanyi only felt that Lin Ting had become different, but she couldn't tell what was different. Maybe it was because she had become clean.

Lin Ting smiled knowingly and asked Shen Wanyi to walk in front of her: "Xiaobao, help me get some soap nuts, let's go to the river to wash clothes."

"Great! Xiaobao is awesome for helping mommy get clothes."

Lin Ting only has three pieces of clothing, all of which are old clothes that others don't want.

He washed Shen Qingzhou's clothes himself, and the bedding on the bed made them look a little more.

Lin Ting came to the river, and there were several women washing clothes with him. When they saw Lin Ting coming over with clothes, they thought they were seeing things.

"Lin Ting? You are Lin Ting, right?"

"Ok!"

A woman called out to Lin Ting and walked past her with a smile in her eyes. This person was Jiang Lan, the wife of the village chief of Wushan Village. Everyone called her Aunt Lan.

It was rare to see Lin Ting so clean and tidy, and he even came out to wash clothes. If Shen Wanyi hadn't been around, she wouldn't have recognized that this was Lin Ting.

"Lin Ting, I see you're out doing laundry now. Are you planning to live a good life with Qingzhou?

In fact, Qingzhou is a good boy with a kind heart. He is the most handsome and talented child in our Wushan Village.

Oh! I just have bad luck. I should have had a bright future, but something like that happened.”

Jiang Lan felt very sorry for what happened to Shen Qingzhou. Originally, she and her old man had high hopes for Shen Qingzhou.

I also hoped that Shen Qingzhou would be able to pass the imperial examination one day and bring glory to Wushan Village.

But things don't always go as planned!

He felt sorry for the child and found a wife like Lin Ting. He originally wanted to marry a wife who could take care of him, but it turned out to be a burden to him.

Lin Ting: “Yeah!”

As for Shen Qingzhou, neither Lin Ting himself nor the original owner knew him.

In the four years since they got married, the two have spoken no more than a hundred words.

It's almost like you look down on me and I look down on your status.

Jiang Lan squatted beside Lin Ting and took out the clothes in the basin to wash. Seeing that Lin Ting was more diligent today, she spoke to her.

"Lin Ting, you've never been in charge of a household, so you don't know that although Qingzhou has a bad leg, he's well-educated.

He is much better than us peasants. He can earn some money every day. How many men can compare to him? "

Lin Ting's thoughts were not the same as those held by women today. Through the memories of the original owner, this place was similar to the ancient times in history that she knew.

Most women regard their husbands as their heaven and take care of their husbands and raise their children.

If Shen Qingzhou is lucky, he can earn more than ten or twenty coins a day. If he is unlucky, he may only earn three or six coins, and sometimes he will come back empty-handed.

Apart from these, there are also some jobs he can't do.

As for Lin Ting, she decided to make the best of her situation. She never thought of relying on Shen Qingzhou, let alone the Shen family.

"Aunt Jiang, everyone has their own strengths. Shen Qingzhou also has many things that others can do but he can't."

Jiang Lan seemed to understand what Lin Ting meant, but she always felt that she still disliked Shen Qingzhou.

Since people had said that, she couldn't keep praising Shen Qingzhou, so she could only change the subject.

"You are right, but Lin Ting, did something happen in your family today?

Just now when I returned to the village from the fields, I saw Grandma Qingzhou and Shen Jizu sweating with anxiety.

After asking, I found out that his grandmother was going to the fields to call back all the members of the Shen family. Shen Jizu even went to borrow an ox cart from my old man and rushed to Wenzhu County.
