Chapter 2 Situation
Lin Vanilla was woken up by pain, and when she woke up, she found that Lin Xiaoshan was spraying medicine on her calf, which was poked by a branch when she was diving, and now it was inflamed and sores, and there was a foul smell from time to time.
"I'll get you something to eat." Lin Xiaoshan saw her wake up, and hurriedly put away the medicine bottle and walked out.
Lin Vanilla was a little moved, but she never thought that the original owner treated him like that, and he still protected her so much. The corners of his mouth hooked, and he slowly looked towards the firewood stacks around him.
She was still in the firewood room of Lao Lin's house, and a fire many years ago took the life of the original owner, her mother Lin Shanhua, and her father was also lost in that fire, and even the body was not found!
Since then, Mrs. Chen has taken away the money earned by her father and mother from opening a wine shop, and she and Xiaoshan have also become a burden to the Lin family, and they have lived a life without a meal.
She pulled her memory from her mind, sat up with her back, and walked all the way outside.
Now it is May, the three hibiscus trees planted in the yard have already been embellished with the color of white ** pink, very good-looking, last night's rain seems to be a little heavy, bent the branches of the hibiscus, look at the little dew on the petals of the hibiscus, crystal clear, pour to the bright petals, add a touch of beauty.
On the right side of the firewood house are five adobe houses connected in parallel, Mrs. Chen has three sons and two daughters, her mother Lin Shanhua is the fourth, with two older brothers, a third sister, and a brother below. Because the third aunt got married early, it naturally has nothing to do with the house.
The middle three rooms are where Mrs. Chen and her two sons who have married their wives live, and the remaining two rooms are the residences of the uncle, cousin and cousin who have not yet married a family.
On the left side of the firewood house is a chicken pen, in which there are more than a dozen chickens and a few ducks, and the connection between the chicken pen and the courtyard gate is a loess wall full of honeycomb eyes, about a meter high, which does not block the scene in the hospital at all.
Lin Vanilla walked directly towards the stove in the courtyard, the pot was empty, the spices on the countertop had already been hidden, except for a big water tank, there was not a single grain of rice to be found, Mrs. Chen deliberately wanted to cut off her rations!
With a breath of turbidity, she slowly walked towards the big water tank, only to see a pale and delicate face reflected in it, although these facial features are not amazing, but they are also attractive, but they are much better than she imagined.
'Giggle' 'Giggle'
The cries of the old hen came from the chicken pen, and Lin Vanilla's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly walked towards the chicken pen.
She was really hungry, although the mouth of the chicken circle was not big, but she was thin, and easily squeezed in, and when she saw that there were two eggs in the chicken nest, she hurriedly put them in her arms and drilled out of the circle.
It's just that as soon as she got out of the chicken pen, she saw a man in the yard staring at her coldly, only to see that he was dressed in a dark shabby cloth robe, his face was like a knife, and he was extremely cold and hard!
Obviously, the weather has warmed up now, but for some reason, she feels very cold when he looks at her like this, and the temperature around her has dropped a lot.
Li Changshuo!
She remembered that the original owner bullied him a lot, because he was the oil bottle that his second uncle Ruan brought with him when he remarried!
When the original owner dived, this man was by the river and looked at her coldly looking for death! One can imagine how much he hated the original owner.
Lin Vanilla couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, he had seen everything just now, so he wouldn't go to sue.
Seeing him walking towards the cowshed behind the house with the barrel, she couldn't help but shout at him: "Li Changshuo! ”
But the other party didn't even bother to look back at her, and soon disappeared into the courtyard.
Lin Vanilla was stunned, and quickly turned around and walked to the firewood room, at this time, Lin Xiaoshan just came back with his head down, and when he saw her, he immediately said in frustration: "I don't know who stole half of the sweet potato I hid this morning." ”
Since Mrs. Chen wants to cut off her rations, where did this sweet potato come from? He only had half a sweet potato to eat in the morning, could it be that he was reluctant to eat it himself, so he left it all for her?
Lin Vanilla was moved in her heart, she was lonely in her previous life, but now she is living again, which actually gave her a taste of family affection, and she only felt that her nose was sour.
Seeing that Lin Xiaoshan was depressed, she hurriedly took out the eggs in her arms, handed one to him, and the other was knocked hard by her towards the firewood.
She opened the eggshell, hurriedly tilted her head, and poured all the eggs into her mouth.
This was the first time she had eaten raw eggs, and she was so hungry that they tasted much better than she had imagined.
When she turned around and saw Lin Xiaoshan looking at her dumbfounded, she couldn't help frowning, took the egg in his hand, knocked it on Chai He, and quickly made him raise his neck.
Although Lin Xiaoshan didn't know, he still did as she did.
"You wolf cub, what are you doing in the firewood room, why don't you hurry up and hunt pigweed?" Suddenly, Mrs. Chen's vicious shouts came from outside, and Lin Vanilla hurriedly put away the eggshell, and in a blink of an eye, the door was kicked open.
Mrs. Chen glanced at their sister and brother with disdain, threw the basket and said to Lin Xiaoshan: "Before dark, this pigweed has not been beaten back, and I won't give you food for three days." ”
Lin Xiaoshan shuddered for a moment, and quickly walked towards the back basket, Lin Vanilla watched him carry the back basket on his back, the back basket was actually full of feet, after all, he was young, he didn't have much to eat, and his development was slow, and his body was a head shorter than his peers.
Lin Vanilla felt distressed for a while, got up and pulled the back basket and carried it on her back.
Lin Xiaoshan didn't say anything, he only pulled the shoulder strap that fell from the back basket and didn't let go.
Lin Vanilla smiled at her, and said, "Sister is idle at home, so it's better to go out with you to breathe." ”
Pulling his hand away, she walked briskly outside. When Lin Xiaoshan saw it, he didn't stop it, but hurriedly chased him out.
All the way out of the door, the gate is a ditch, the ditch is about one person wide, the water inside is not deep, Rao is there many people in the ducks in it, the water is still clear and transparent.
There are a lot of wild grasses on the side of the ditch, and it is quiet, and the forest herbs walk downstream for a while, and I see a drain of Coptis chinensis and a few Angelica dahurica plants in the distance.
She had been thinking about the way to survive, but now when she saw these two medicinal herbs, her eyes suddenly lit up.
Hurriedly put down the back basket to dig water coptis, the water yellow and blue water is not enough, except for the rhizome has a little weight, the branches can be basically ignored, which is also the reason why it is very expensive in modern medicinal herb shops.
After Lin Vanilla dug up all the water coptis, he hurriedly went to cut Angelica dahurica.
Angelica grew under the ditch, and the herbs couldn't reach it, so he put down the basket, took a branch, and held the big tree in one hand, while trying to hook Angelica closer.
Suddenly, the upturned legs and feet were hugged by a soft and glutinous thing, Lin Vanilla was startled, and when she looked back, it was Lin Xiaoshan!
I saw that Lin Xiaoshan was looking at her pitifully at this time, looking like he would not let go.
Lin Vanilla couldn't help laughing, and then it suddenly dawned on him, was he afraid that she would die again?
"Xiaoshan, Sister Ah hooked Bai Zhi over, do you help Sister Ah to hold it back?"
God knows how warm her heart must be at this time, and she is more and more determined to gain a foothold in this world and protect him. Lin Xiaoshan looked at Lin Vanilla for a while, and finally slowly let go of her ankles and slowly moved to the edge of the ditch.
The sister and brother cooperated silently, and soon picked Angelica dajiki. Lin Vanilla sat on the ground, planning to take a few more steps to the overgrown area in front of her, and go back with some pigweed.
Just as she was about to go, the red fruits on the vines at her feet caught her eye.
It's a wild sweet potato!
