After Song Lingxue withdrew from the space, the sky was already a little dark, and the already dark room was even darker.

She sat up from the bed and leaned against the wall, when she heard someone knocking on the door outside, and her voice could already make a sound, but it was still hoarse, and she replied softly, "Come in." ”

The one who came in was a thirteen-year-old girl, who was the eldest daughter of the original owner, Yao Shilan, and a little girl followed behind her buttocks, who was Yao Shiyu, the youngest daughter of the original owner.

"Mother, have you finally woken up, are you feeling better? What about the head? It still hurts, and my throat is dumb like this. Yao Shilan said, the concern in her tone was genuine, and her voice was still a little choked, she put the tray in her hand on the low table at the head of the bed, knocked it with flint and steel a few times, and lit the oil lamp.

The gray and yellow oil lamp illuminated the small room, and Song Lingxue saw clearly that there were two bowls and a plate on the wooden tray. One bowl is black Chinese medicine, the other is yellow and white porridge, and one dish is two slightly blackened wowotou.

"Mother, drink the medicine first, Dr. Hu said that you have been in a coma for a day and a night, and you have a fever in the middle, and the medicine cannot be broken." After speaking, seeing that Song Lingxue didn't say a word and didn't drink the medicine, she thought that she was distressed about the medicine money, and her nose suddenly became sore, and tears couldn't help but flow: "Drink it, mother, although the medicine is expensive, but your body is more important, don't worry, I will go to the town in a few days, and ask Zhu Niangzi for more embroidery work, and when the time comes, the medicine money will come back." ”

Song Lingxue was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then reacted, her face suddenly darkened, the original owner was very stingy and searched, everything in the family should be strictly controlled for food and money, and every penny was eager to be broken into two halves, and the people in the family were afraid to go to the doctor when they were sick, that is, she herself had a cold, and she also ran to the mountain to pick a handful of plantain and came back to boil and drink, although the plantain is considered a traditional Chinese medicine, but the mountain is everywhere, and it is not valuable, many people in the village know that the grass can clear heat and detoxify, Many minor ailments can be cured.

And on weekdays, all the food at home is locked in a big cabinet in the house, and when the daughters-in-law cook, she has to take out the key to make a porridge and make a nest, open the cabinet and take out things, not to mention that this illness cost a hundred yuan at once, if the original owner is still there, he must cry and scold for wasting money and be punished by God!

"Mother, and me, I followed the third brother to fight the sparrows, and came back to stew the soup for you to drink, the big cow next door was sick once, her mother just boiled the broth for him to drink, he was fine immediately, I have no money to buy meat, I can only beat the finches for you." Yao Shiyu, who had been following behind without speaking, ran to the bed, took one of Song Lingxue's hands, and said obediently.

Song Lingxue smiled at this time, reached out and touched Yao Shiyu's little head, looking at her thin and not like a ten-year-old child, a feeling of distress surged from the bottom of her heart, it may be that the residual feelings of the original owner are doing trouble.

However, with the memory of the original owner, Song Lingxue also knew that although the original owner was a typical rural woman, pungent and barbaric and mean and stingy, she was not very good to several sons and daughters-in-law in the family, and even several grandchildren were scolded at every turn, although they had never done anything, but a few small ones in the family were very afraid of her.

However, the original owner was very good to the two daughters, and never let the two of them do farm work, only let them learn to embroider and make clothes and other delicate work, so Yao Shilan stayed at home every day to embroider, the door did not go out, and the second door did not step, although she was a little thin but also very white, and her hands were also very thin, plus she followed the good appearance of the original owner, it was a good color for ten miles and eight villages, and it was a village flower level character in Yaojia Village.

So the two daughters are very close to the original owner, and after the original owner was injured this time, the eldest daughter was also here to accompany and take care of her, but during the day, she went to the town with a few aunts in the village to send embroidery, which made the sister-in-law and sister-in-law greet her.

"You're all good boys." Song Lingxue remembered the way the original owner looked at her two daughters on weekdays, and said with a smile in her tone, resigned herself to the bowl of Chinese medicine that flushed her nose, drank it in a bitter breath, and quickly picked up the head of the nest and took a bite.

Wowotou is made of multigrain noodles, which is dry and hard when it is a little cold, Song Lingxue took a bite and chewed it a few times in order to suppress the bitter taste of the medicine, and almost choked her to death.

"Mother, hurry up and drink porridge to press." Yao Shilan was startled, and hurriedly took the porridge bowl and sent it to Song Lingxue.

Song Lingxue took the bowl and drank two mouthfuls of porridge, and then went down, and then found that her stomach was already grumbling with hunger, and she hadn't eaten for a day in a coma, and after eating something at this time, her hunger was stimulated.

Song Lingxue held a nest head in one hand and porridge in the other, like a starving ghost reincarnated, gobbling it up, three times five divided by two to solve two nests and a bowl of porridge, and after eating, she didn't forget to lick the bowl clean with her tongue.

It's just a shame! Song Lingxue was speechless, this original owner really made people want to laugh and want to laugh.

"Okay, let's take it down, and you two should go to bed early." Although Song Lingxue digested the memories of the original owner, she was still a little strange with the two daughters of the original owner, she didn't know how to get along, and she was afraid that someone would find out that she was not the original, so she had to temporarily avoid the mother-daughter talk in the past.

"Then mother, you also rest early, drink the medicine, and your mother will get better soon." Yao Shilan also knew that her mother was not well now and needed to rest more, but she didn't think much about it, she quickly put away the dishes and prepared to take her sister Yao Shiyu out.

I just hesitated when I walked to the door, and then turned around and asked: "Mother, tomorrow's sister-in-law will cook, she said that the rations you gave before are running out, and I am afraid that it will not be enough for tomorrow's two meals." ”

In normal times, her mother must be scolding, saying that a group of debt collectors, just eating and not working, etc...... But today, Yao Shilan was a little surprised, her mother was not angry, nor did she scold, she was stunned for a moment and then smiled, took off the key from her waist, and handed it to Yao Shilan.

"Look at it, there are many children at home, so let's take a little more."

After Song Lingxue finished speaking, Yao Shilan was even more incredible, but she was still very happy, her mother seemed to have changed a lot this time, and she was not so critical of her family.

"Hey!" Yao Shilan said happily, took the key to the large cabinet standing at the base of the wall, took out a big key on the keychain, opened the big lock on it, took out half a bag of mixed noodles, and took out half a bag of coarse rice and yellow chestnut rice, which is used for porridge.

After hesitating for a moment, she took out two more eggs, turned her head and asked her mother: "Mother, you are weak, the doctor said that you need to make up for it, I will make you an egg soup tomorrow morning." ”

"Take a few more, cook them in the morning, one for each of you sisters, and one for each of the younger ones in the family." Song Lingxue nodded casually, then thought for a while and said.

"yes, I haven't eaten an egg in a long time." Yao Shiyu was still a child after all, and she didn't realize the change in her mother, but was happy because she could eat eggs.

"Mother, do you want to go to the toilet?" Yao Shilan asked her sister to carry the tray with empty dishes and plates, while she took the rations and asked carefully before leaving.

Seeing that Song Lingxue shook her head, she blew out the bedside light, waited for a while, and after her eyes got used to the darkness, she took her sister Yao Shiyu and slowly groped out.

After the two sisters left, Song Lingxue smelled the sour smell all over her body again, and she tried very hard to resist the urge to take a bath now, her body had a fever, and there was still a wound on her head, so she could only endure it anymore.
