Chapter 2: The Turtle Child
Fan Tong hurriedly lifted An Ruoqiu's skirt and took a look, and shouted, "Ah-".
"Lady-child-child-"
"What's wrong with the kid?"
An Ruoqiu was dissatisfied with Fan Tong's fuss, is the child who has a miscarriage so terrible?
In the end, it was a piece of meat left on her body, An Ruoqiu felt uncomfortable, she only felt sad, and she was not afraid because of it.
"Bring it and show me!"
Fan Tong trembled his hands and held the child in front of An Ruoqiu.
"Lady-you-look-"
An Ruoqiu took a closer look, and immediately widened her eyes and screamed, so frightened that a pool of blood rushed out of her crotch.
What kind of child is Fan Tong holding in his hand?
It's clearly a turtle!
She gave birth to a turtle! It's still a green-haired turtle!
This turtle is covered with green hair, and the green hair is stained with bright red blood, and it is green and red, and it looks weird.
It suddenly moved, proving that it was still alive.
An Ruoqiu thought that this hairy thing had just flowed out of her body, and she couldn't help but shudder in her heart.
Hey......
Goosebumps stood up.
The green-haired turtle suddenly opened its eyes, staring at An Ruoqiu with a pair of black eyes, its mouth moved, as if it had something to say, but it couldn't say it.
An Ruoqiu was stunned.
Fan Tong looked at the green-haired turtle in his hand, his face was afraid, and his hands trembled involuntarily.
"Lady, what-what?"
His voice trembled.
An Ruoqiu sighed tiredly, lay down again, and felt her whole body collapse.
After crossing over, she had escaped death and gave birth at the tenth level, and as for giving birth to a green turtle, although she was shocked, she could reluctantly accept it.
"Do whatever you like! Leave me alone! I'm tired! β
An Ruoqiu waved her hand and motioned for Fan Tong to get out.
Fan Tong saw that the lady was really tired, and he didn't bother her, so he had to bring the turtle into the kitchen, help it wash it, and put it in water to raise.
"Lady, that-child, I raised it in the water-"
"What? Child? Where did the children come from? β
As soon as An Ruoqiu heard the word child, anger came out.
Fan Tong hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to look directly at An Ruoqiu.
Since his wife was immersed in the pig cage, her temperament has changed, she is very domineering, and she is not as taciturn as she used to be.
"Lady, I was wrong. It's not a child, it'sβit's a turtleβ"
"Listen! Don't talk about the children in the future! This turtle is not allowed to tell anyone that it was born from my belly! You know? It's going to get you in big trouble! You think, if the people in the village know that your lady gave birth to a green-haired turtle, you must treat our family as a monster, and you are afraid that you will be driven out of the village. β
Fan Tong was shocked into a cold sweat when he heard An Ruoqiu say this. He wasn't as thoughtful as a lady.
The lady has become wiser, she is right.
"Yes! Lady, you're right! He nodded quickly.
"This turtle, try not to let others see it, if it is discovered, it can only be said that it was picked."
"Yes, yes, the lady is right." Fan Tong kept nodding.
"I'm hungry, do I have anything to eat?" An Ruoqiu asked weakly.
"Yes! The second aunt gave flatbread. β
After speaking, Fan Tong handed the flatbread to An Ruoqiu.
An Ruoqiu was really hungry, took the flatbread, and began to gobble it up.
Fan Tong saw that the lady was eating deliciously, and he was swallowing saliva desperately on the side, he was also hungry and panicked, and his stomach suddenly growled.
The sound was too loud, and An Ruoqiu had already heard it.
She glanced at Fan Tong's face and saw that his face was yellow and thin, and his eyes were sunken, which was very pitiful. This rice bucket must be hungry.
She tore a piece of cake and handed it to Fan Tong.
"Yo, here you go! You can also eat a little to fill your stomach. β
No matter what, he is also her father-in-law. She can't go back now, so she can only continue to stay here as an ugly aunt.
Fan Tong swallowed his saliva, staring at the flatbread with his eyes glowing, but shook his head and refused.
"Nope! Lady, you can eat. You must be hungry, you only eat so little, you must not be full. β
An Ruoqiu's eyes moistened a little when she heard this, it seems that this rice bucket is kind-hearted, but he is a good person.
She suddenly straightened her face and glared at Fan Tong fiercely.
"Do you eat or not? If I don't eat and starve, who will take care of me? β
Although An Ruoqiu's mouth is a little poisonous, this trick is useful.
Fan Tong was afraid that the lady would be angry, so he quickly took the flatbread, stuffed it all into his mouth, and devoured it.
"Ahemβahemβ"
He puffed out his cheeks and rolled his eyes.
"Look at you! What a rice bucket! Drink some water! β
An Ruoqiu felt powerless to complain. She has a hunch that her future life will be very hard!
Sure enough, as she foresaw, life was really miserable.
After eating the flatbread given by the second aunt, An Ruoqiu had nothing else to eat except for drinking water. She was too hungry to stand it. With nothing to eat, she was afraid that she would starve to death.
She stretched out her foot and kicked Fan Tong, who was in a wheelchair.
"Go! Go to the second aunt and get some food, or we'll all starve to death!" β
Fan Tong was also so hungry that his hands and feet were weak.
"Lady, I-I don't have the strength to climb to my second aunt's house." Fan Tong said weakly.
An Ruoqiu was in trouble.
Fan Tong can't go to the second aunt's house, and she can't go either, the key is that she doesn't know where the second aunt's house is, and she is not the ugly aunt herself.
"You can't go, and I can't go! My brain got into the water, I became stupid, and I can't remember where my second aunt's home is! β
An Ruoqiu simply admitted that she had water in her brain and became stupid.
Fortunately, the original owner, Ugly Aunt, had good physical fitness, and after a few days of rest, her body recovered almost.
An Ruoqiu got out of bed and couldn't help but feel sad when she saw the four walls of her home.
She ran into the kitchen, there was not a grain of rice in the rice bowl, and the pot was dirty. I searched and really didn't find anything to eat.
An Ruoqiu's heart was cold, and she turned her head to look outside, which was overgrown with weeds.
Could it be that you can only gnaw grass to satisfy your hunger?
Inadvertently, An Ruoqiu found the green-haired turtle in the bucket.
Turtle?
An idea occurred to her.
"Xianggong, cook the turtle in soup and replenish your body!"
"Hey, lady, no!" Fan Tong hurriedly stopped.
"Why not? We're all hungry, so are we starving to death in vain? β
An Ruoqiu glared at Fan Tong viciously.
Fan Tong shrank back and looked at An Ruoqiu in fear.
Since his lady and ugly aunt have been immersed in the pig pen, she feels different from before, and she is like two people.
An Ruoqiu ignored Fan Tong and scooped up the green-haired turtle.
Fan Tong was anxious, "Lady, no!" Don'tβ"
"Why not? The only thing we can eat is this turtle! β
"But, lady, this turtle is our child!"
"Poofβ"
An Ruoqiu almost spurted out a mouthful of blood.
She rolled her eyes, trying to come up with a reason to eat the turtle.
"Xianggong, in fact, this turtle was not born by me at all. How can a human being give birth to a turtle? This turtle actually hid on me when I was immersed in the pig cage and crawled out when I had a miscarriage, so it's not our baby at all, right? You are mistaken. β
An Ruoqiu made up a reason and began to fool Dafa, anyway, she refused that the turtle came out of her birthing passage.
This seems to be the only correct explanation.
Fan Tong thought for a moment and felt that what the lady said made sense, but he still refused to cook the turtle.
"Lady, even if this turtle is not our child, no matter how you say it, it is related to us. We can't kill it, eat it, it's too cruel! β
"Cruel fart! Starving us to death is the greatest cruelty! While I still have some strength, I have to find something to eat to replenish my energy, otherwise, we will all faint from hunger, so let's die cruelly together! β
After An Ruoqiu finished domineeringly, regardless of Fan Tong, he rolled up his sleeves, washed the pots and pots, and boiled half a pot of water to prepare to cook turtle soup.
Fan Tong couldn't accept this cruel turtle killing incident, and walked away sadly.
Seeing that Fan Tong was not in the way, An Ruoqiu breathed a sigh of relief, she stared at the green-haired turtle in the bucket, thinking about how to kill the turtle, she had never slaughtered a turtle.
Forget it, just throw it into the pot, cover the pot, out of sight, not cruel.
An Ruoqiu picked up the turtle from the bucket and threw it directly into the pot.
There was hot water in the pot, and the green-haired turtle was struggling desperately with its four legs, looking a little cruel indeed.
An Ruoqiu was just about to put the lid on the pot, when she suddenly heard a familiar sound in the water.
"An Ruoqiu, you want to burn me! I'm early summer, let me out! β
"Long bell-" With a sound, the lid of the pot fell to the ground, and An Ruoqiu was stunned.
That's right! Her ears heard it right!
It was indeed the voice of her sister An Chuxia, and this voice actually came from the green-haired turtle.
"Ruoqiu, sister-quick! Get me up! I'm almost cooked! β
An Chuxia's anxious cry for help came from the pot again.
