"Alas!" Lu Wanxing sighed in her heart, Mrs. Lu is really persistent, it seems that she can't hide from seeing Guo Rui. Anyway, sooner or later, I want to see him, it's better to make it clear to him when I see him this time, it's best to let him take the initiative to withdraw from the marriage, and they will have nothing to do with each other in the future.

Mrs. Lu sat for a while, looked out and looked, but she didn't see Lu Wanqing come back. She asked Lu Wanxing to lie down, tucked the stiff quilt on her body for her, and then walked to the kitchen.

Lu Wanxing watched her go out, put her hands on her stomach and touched it, there was a straw bag there, she pinched it a few times, put it on the tip of her nose and smelled it, there was a smell of mugwort leaves. In retrospect, this was Mrs. Lu's local method, she had several stomach pains in the past, so Mrs. Lu put dried mugwort into a cloth bag, put it on the pot and warmed it to make a hot compress for her.

Mugwort has the effect of warming menstruation and stopping bleeding, dissipating cold and relieving pain, and it also helped her stomach pain in the past. But she is now suffering from gastritis, and it is estimated that only medicine can be effective.

However, mugwort leaves are placed in the stomach, and they are warm and very comfortable. Thinking of Mrs. Lu's concern for her, her heart also warmed.

Mrs. Lu walked back with a second bowl after only three minutes.

As soon as she entered the door, Lu Wanxing smelled the smell of rice porridge, which was a little sweet and smelled very good. By the time she sat up, Mrs. Lu had already brought the porridge to the bedside. With some guilt on his face, he handed her the bowl.

Lu Wanxing took it and took a look, it was really porridge! You can count how many rice grains there are, and this can also be called porridge, so it's better to say that it's rice soup! But after being hungry for so long, it's better to drink rice soup.

She was not picky, and drank it with a bowl. Eighty percent of them have never eaten white rice since they crossed over, and they all feel sweet when they drink such rice soup, she drank a big bowl in one go, wiped her mouth and squinted at Mrs. Lu and said with a smile: "Milk, you see I'm fine." ”

"Okay, okay." Mrs. Lu only said two good words, and then turned around and went out.

Lu Wanxing looked at her back a little lonely, presumably this bowl of porridge made her embarrassed again. White rice porridge, that's a precious thing. Only the third aunt had a miscarriage for half a month. Once Lu Chengcai ate a bowl of white rice, and was reprimanded by the third aunt loudly. Now I can give her white rice porridge, but I can imagine how embarrassed Mrs. Lu is in the middle.

Lu Wanxing drank a bowl of rice soup and had a lot of energy in her stomach. Lying on the bed and having nothing to do, he went down to the window sill and looked out.

This is unbelievable, Lu Wanqing is kneeling in the courtyard against the sun! There was no one in the courtyard except her, the noon sun was hot, and from such a distance, Lu Wanxing could feel that Lu Wanqing was sunburned.

She leaned on the window and shouted to Lu Wanqing's back: "Fourth sister, fourth sister." ”

Lu Wanqing heard her voice, turned her head to look, and fell over again. There is a rule in her family that she must face the sun during the day and the moon at night. It was such a hot day facing the sun, and she had to suffer from heat stroke for someone as fat.

Lu Wanxing looked at it for a while, as if Lu Wanqing's face was bigger again.

Could it be that she made some mistake again, was punished and beaten?

Lu Wanxing didn't think about it, she pulled her straw sandals and walked into the yard, stared at her in front of Lu Wanqing and asked, "Fourth sister, what's wrong with you?" ”

Lu Wanqing had dark circles under her eyes, half of her face was swollen, her hair was soaked with sweat, and her whole face was reddened by the sun.

When Lu Wanqing saw Lu Wanxing, she lowered her eyes embarrassedly and said, "It's okay." It's okay. ”

"It's okay, you're kneeling here? How did you get punished again? Saying that, Lu Wanxing reached out to pull her, but Lu Wanqing knelt motionlessly.

"What the hell is wrong with you?" Lu Wanxing couldn't pull her, so she stood in front of her to block a shadow for her, and asked eagerly.

Lu Wanqing was determined not to say anything.

Lu Wanxing stood in the courtyard for a while, and felt the hot pain in her back from being roasted by the sun. Not to mention that Lu Wanqing is so much fatter than her, maybe how long she has been kneeling.

"You're going to get sick like this," Lu Wanxing kindly reminded.

"If only I had died." Lu Wanqing shed tears and said with a huff.

Lu Wanxing looked in the yard, and finally saw a bamboo plaque, her bamboo plaque was taken to Lu Wanqing's front and supported with a stick. In this way, Lu Wanqing's whole person was covered in shadows.

She also got into the shadows and squatted beside Lu Wanqing and asked, "What happened?" Tell me and see if I can figure it out. ”

"What can you do? That's my life. ”

Lu Wanxing looked at her face and guessed what was wrong? Thinking about it, she couldn't be caught stealing goose eggs, the most likely thing for her to be punished was what Aunt Wang said today, she must have disagreed with this family business, so she was beaten by the fourth aunt.

Thinking of this, Lu Wanxing suddenly felt that it was really pitiful for them to live in this era, and a woman's marriage had to obey the orders of her parents and the words of the matchmaker. Some people have never even seen a man before they get married, and with the matchmaker's two mouths, their parents are in charge, and they put their whole lives into it.

"Is it something that Aunt Wang said?"

When Lu Wanqing heard her ask, she cried even more fiercely, tears flowed down, her dark green eyes were half-closed, and only the other eye looked at Lu Wanxing and said: "My mother took a fancy to Zhang Butcher's money, and said that if I marry him, it will be the main house." When the butcher dies, the family property will be mine. ”

"What did the fourth aunt say?" Lu Wanxing asked knowingly. The last time she asked her to marry that bad old man to fill the house, she said the same thing, but later the old man's family disagreed. The second fool also said the same thing, and when the fool died, the family property was hers, and later people disliked her for being too fat, and she was beaten by the four aunts and four uncles.

She didn't understand, it was clearly the biological daughter of the fourth aunt, why did they think about exchanging money? What's the difference between this and selling a girl?

No wonder Lu Wanqing envies her, at least with Guo Rui's guarantee, no one in the family beats her idea. Except, of course, Lu Chengcai.

"The fourth aunt and the fourth uncle fought?" Lu Wanxing asked sympathetically,

Lu Wanqing nodded and stopped talking.

Lu Wanxing didn't know what to say to comfort her, so she stayed under the shadows with her.

After squatting for a while, her feet and neck were sore, she simply sat on the ground. Lu Wanqing looked at her and said, "You are still sick, don't suffer here with me, I will be able to enter the house when dinner comes." ”

"You're really ......" Lu Wanxing didn't know what to say about her, so she gave up complaining about her and asked instead: "Have you eaten?" ”

Lu Wanqing shook her head, this made Lu Wanxing angry, and scolded her in her heart, she grew this body of flesh in vain, she was afraid of what they would do, she didn't eat, and she was also corporal punishment.

"You wait, I'll get you something to eat."

"Alas! Don't go, you'll be punished if you find out. Before Lu Wanqing could speak, she saw a figure walking over quickly.
