Lin Jinzhi only felt that he had been asleep for a long, long time in a daze.

Her throat was dry as if someone had grabbed her throat, she coughed a few times before she slowly woke up, and as soon as she opened her eyes, there was a dark house, and there was still dry rough food next to it, sorting out the memories that suddenly popped up in her mind and the thin body that coughed violently.

Lin Jinzhi couldn't laugh a little.

She is no longer the modern Lin Jinzhi, but the child daughter-in-law of the Lin family in Linjia Village that the old lady of the Lin family bought from the abductor for her grandson Chongxi.

The Lin family has been guarding a few acres of land for generations, and they can only be regarded as a medium-sized family in the village. Mrs. Lin gave birth to several sons, and she lived two, the second was a bad gambler, and her daughter-in-law Chen, a son and a daughter. The eldest died early, leaving a sick and crooked son Lin Dacheng, who just died of illness some time ago.

Lin Jinzhi was originally Chongxi's child daughter-in-law, as soon as Lin Dacheng died, her mother-in-law Liu Lanzhi felt uncomfortable, and she thought of a way to abuse her.

"Isn't this awake? Are you still lying there and not working, waiting for me to ask you to get up? Liu Lanzhi pushed the door open from the outside, and a widow's face couldn't be colder anymore.

In my memory, there was still Liu Lanzhi's beating and scolding of the original owner before, Lin Jinzhi pulled the quilt and covered his mouth and coughed, "Ahem, cough, why did my mother come over, my body is not well, what if it happens to my mother?" ”

"The doctor said it was okay? What do you mean it's not good, I think you're itchy and lazy? Liu Lanzhi thought she was too lazy to work, and wanted to go into the house and drag her up.

Lin Jinzhi had previous memories in his mind and knew what kind of person Liu Lanzhi was.

Immediately took the handkerchief, coughed a few more heavily, and before he reached the door, Liu Lanzhi didn't dare to come in, Lin Jinzhi's illness before was contagious, Liu Lanzhi didn't care about Lin Jinzhi's life, but she still cherished her own body, scolded a few words at the window, and finally twisted her body and left.

Without Liu Lanzhi's voice, Lin Jinzhi breathed a sigh of relief.

She leaned back on the bed, the soles of her feet were cold, and she could only wrap the quilt tighter, and the room was pitch black, and so was her heart. At this moment, the door was pushed open, and it was a little girl who looked to be thirteen or fourteen years old, thin, wearing patched clothes, and was carefully carrying the dishes and chopsticks inside.

The memory in his mind soon told Lin Jinzhi the identity of this little girl.

The Lin family has a total of two rooms, mother-in-law Liu Lanzhi and Lin Dacheng have one room, and Lin Dacheng died. The Lin family has a son and a daughter in the second room, and now this little girl is Lin Yucui in the second room of the Lin family, and there is a younger brother named Lin Yongan.

"Sister-in-law, you've been sick for so long, it's easy to wake up, eat something!" Lin Yucui brought the bowl to Lin Jinzhi with a worried face

People in the village said that the girl's family was losing money, and the Lin family was not very good to the girl, Lin Jinzhi's status was low, that is, Lin Yucui was the granddaughter of the Lin family, and she usually couldn't eat enough and didn't have enough clothes, so she was beaten and scolded at every turn.

Both of them are the most affected in the family, so Lin Yucui also really cares about Lin Jinzhi.

Lin Jinzhi glanced at the rough food in the bowl, but he really didn't have much appetite. But in the end, I finally picked up a life, but I didn't want to starve to death again, so I still ate two bites with my scalp on.

Lin Yucui sat at the head of the bed on the side, watching her eat, her eyes were stunned, and there was some envy in her eyes, "My aunt asked my sister-in-law to send it, and there is still some rice at the bottom of the bowl." "Farm rice is precious, and only men can eat it.

Lin Jinzhi was stunned for a moment, she didn't think that Liu Lanzhi was a kind-hearted person who was willing to give herself rice.

Lin Yucui grabbed the wrinkled and patched skirt corners with her hands, there were two girls at home, and she was usually used to talking to Lin Jinzhi, "Sister-in-law, I secretly heard my aunt and them talking just now." said that there was a big guy outside the staff in Ming'er, and he wanted to come to the house, as if he was going to collect the maid. ”

She knew that Liu Lanzhi was not so kind, and she was willing to send a bowl of rice to her child daughter-in-law for no reason. This ancient maid is not like a modern worker, she is a slave of someone else after signing a deed of sale, whether she is dead or alive is not up to herself, and she is a slave, and she can't turn over in this life.

Thinking of this, she couldn't eat anything more.

"Coming tomorrow?"

Lin Yucui nodded, her voice was a little choked, "My aunt told them that your illness is cured, let them come tomorrow to get someone, and said that there is not enough rice at home, let me take it together." ”

It stands to reason that selling a child daughter-in-law is not distressing for one's own family, but it makes no sense to sell one's granddaughter. Lin Jinzhi knew that Mrs. Lin couldn't afford to be sick, and Liu Lanzhi was in charge. Lin Lao Er is a gambler and an unofficial child, but Lin Yucui's mother is gentle, and she also takes care of the original owner on weekdays. But this gentleness is not a top thing, and she is always bullied by Liu Lanzhi on weekdays.

Since marrying into the Lin family, it has not been a day of peace, she was stabbed by her sister-in-law during the day, and she was beaten by Lin Lao Er at night, Liu Lanzhi wanted to sell her daughter, Lin Lao Er only thought about gambling money and was not an official, and she didn't dare to say anything.

Lin Yucui is young and has never read any books, so she doesn't know that her life will not be her own after the deed of sale is signed. Only wiping her tears, she was a little reluctant to leave the house, and she was used to it, "Sister-in-law, I'm not sad, if my aunt really wants to sell the two of us, it will also be in response to my mother's words, I can only blame our hard life, born in such a family, I can't complain about others." ”

This is also a good girl, and now she is still thinking about comforting Lin Jinzhi, "And sister-in-law, it's good to go outside." At least there are no aunts outside, and I've heard people say that big families can eat meat—"

"Yucui, don't you understand? If it's really a slave or a slave, it's for the sake of your own family. But did you give your mother's money? And which family received the maid who came to the house to collect it in person? The maid of a big family, Yucui, last year, Wang Xiaohua next door to us couldn't get in after stuffing money into the foreign house, so we still want to go in? ”

This matter is not so simple, Lin Jinzhi has seen a lot of modern people, saying that he is a slave and a maid, but he even has to take care of the warm bed.

"In short, Cui'er, you listen to me, Ming'er, I will do what I ask you to do. We can all stay at home in peace. We have to hold this life in our own hands. ”

Lin Yucui nodded half-understandingly, only looking at her sister-in-law's firmer eyes than before, she felt that she was a little different.

At night, Lin Jinzhi had to explain a lot of things to Lin Yucui, and the two fell asleep together. It wasn't until the second day that Lin Yucui went out with a bowl. But as soon as he went out, he saw Liu Lanzhi with a tall and thin man saying something, and hurriedly hid to leave.
