Chapter 4: The Bought Daughter-in-law (4)
After the rest just now, Ru Yi was now able to exert her strength. She struggled to prop herself up against the head of the bed, coughed dryly, raised her feeble fingers, pointed at her throat, and swallowed.
Yuan Shu didn't pull her eyes back to Ru Yi until she heard the dry cough, only to see her pointing to her throat, she didn't know what the woman was going to do, just guessed randomly, "You...... Are you going to drink water? "It's just that I didn't expect her to guess correctly with this random guess.
Ru Yi blinked and nodded.
Yuan Shu looked down at the small half bowl of rice soup that had been sprinkled in her hand, and her mind cleared up, and she remembered what she was doing in this house. She walked to the shabby bedside again, and her heart had gradually calmed down.
She sat down on the edge of the bed, put the rice soup in the bowl into Ruyi's mouth, and said, "Mother asked me to feed the rice soup, you drink the rice soup first, and then I will pour water for you." ”
Ru Yi nodded lightly and quietly finished the rice soup. After a bowl of rice soup, the empty stomach is finally much more comfortable, and even the hot throat feels much better.
After Yuan Shu finished feeding the rice soup, she put the small bowl on the bench next to the bed, and saw that there was residual rice soup at the corner of her mouth, so she took out a white silk cloth from her pocket and carefully wiped the corner of her mouth.
Ru Yi opened her mouth, and after a while, a dull voice came out of her throat, "Xie-Xie-" After speaking, she felt her eyelids getting heavier and heavier, and after a while, her eyes were closed, and gradually her breathing became even, and it didn't take long for her to fall asleep.
Yuan Shu straightened her body and lay down flat, covered her with a mattress, and after doing a series of things, when she was about to leave, her eyes swept lightly over the delicate face, and she couldn't help but stop and look carefully.
The bright sunlight shone through the dilapidated window on the bed to form dappled points of light, showing her beautiful face perfectly in front of her.
A long hair like satin scattered on both sides of the ear clips, small and delicate facial features, curly eyelashes trembling slightly, a cherry-like lips under the straight nose, skin like snow, white and flawless, without the pale color just seen, but a feeling of white and red.
To be honest, it was the first time for Yuan Shu to see such a delicate woman, and from the moment the woman woke up, she felt like a fairy coming out of the painting, like a fairy but not a fairy.
At this time, Yuan Shu had a doubt in her heart.
When she looked horizontally and vertically, she felt that this woman did not look like a woman who was sold to people from other villages, but she gave people the feeling of living in a rich and noble family.
You think, people who live in the village are more or less basking in the sun and doing farm work, but this woman has fair and delicate skin, and she doesn't even have calluses on her hands, so she doesn't do heavy work at first glance.
Now Yuan Shu has doubts about the identity of this woman, who is she? Such a beautiful woman should be able to sell for a lot of money, right? But why would the human tooth be sold to their house for fifteen taels of silver?
With these questions, Yuan Shu took the small bowl, closed the door and left the room.

In the hall, on the table of the Eight Immortals.
After Qian finished cooking the wild vegetables and brought them to the table of the Eight Immortals, he returned to the kitchen, washed the two pots for cooking vegetables and rice, scooped some water and stuffed them in the pots, and after doing this, Yuan Liang happened to come back from playing outside.
