Chapter 15

After entering the hospital, Liu Jin and Luo put down the wooden plow.

"Mom, this thing is really heavy. Are you tired?" Liu Jin stood behind Roche and helped Roche knead her back.

Roche hammered his back a few times and said, "not tired."

"Mom, you don't have to be so polite to your uncle when he pesters you in the future." Liu Jin reminded, "for a shameless person like him, you really can't let him continue to entangle."

"Oh! I know." Roche explained, "I just think he is your father's brother..."

Liu Jin sighed silently. Her mother was like this. She cared for others, but why did others treat them as a family.

She originally wanted to take advantage of what happened today to persuade her mother, but when she thought about it carefully, there were too many things happening today. Her mother's mood was finally stable. She can't say more, lest her mother cry again.

"Mom, dinner is ready. Let's wash our hands and go to dinner." Liu Jin took Roche into the kitchen.

After washing her hands, Liu Jin took the dishes to the main room.

The food for dinner was the same as that for noon. They ate quickly and were full soon.

Liu Jin wants to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, but Roche sends her to feed Mu Yu for dinner.

This time, when Liu Jin fed Mu Yu for dinner, she was not so formal as before.

Soon, a bowl of porridge came to the bottom.

"If you rest early, you will get better and faster." Liu Jin stood up and whispered.

Mu Yu nodded and watched Liu Jin leave the room.

The light moonlight poured in through the window lattice, making the room gradually bright.

Mu Yu stared at the silver moon, and his heart was desolate.

Today is the day of his father's funeral, but he can't see him off

As a son of man, it's sad that I can't see him for the last time.

If it hadn't been for that cheap woman, he wouldn't have been unable to see his father's last face.

Damn, when he recovers from his injury, he will settle with that bitch.

Thinking of this, Mu Yu's Obsidian eyes burst out a fierce light, like the ghost of hell.

"Father, you've been walking well. I know you didn't die of illness, but were poisoned by others. Father, don't worry, I will avenge you and take back what belongs to us." Mu Yu said coldly.

Liu Jin came to Roche's house and saw Roche putting on the soles of his shoes by moonlight. She quickly grabbed the soles.

"Mom, it's getting late. The sole hurts your eyes. You'd better rest early. The sole will be done during the day tomorrow." Liu Jin put the sole of her shoes in the basket of the bed cabinet and said in a warm voice.

"I don't have time to do it tomorrow. I'll plough tomorrow." Roche took off his coat and got into the hard quilt. "Jin'er, I'm afraid it's going to be hard for you these days. You have to straighten our field with me."

If you can, Luo is not willing to let Liu Jin work in the field, but she can't use the wooden plow alone!

"Well, mom, I'll sell the bamboo shoots in the county early tomorrow, and I'll finish the field with you when I come back."

At the time of separation, her family divided one mu of paddy field and one mu of dry land.

With such a little land, Yang didn't agree to give it to her family, but at the insistence of old man Liu, Yang had to agree.

Her paddy field grows two crops of rice a year. At the time of harvest, in addition to paying taxes, she has to pay some to old Liu and Yang as alimony. In this way, there was very little left, so Roche thought of a way to exchange fine rice for coarse rice, so that he could be hungry several times less.

Liu Jin felt that such a little field at home was not enough. After she sold the bamboo shoots, she went to buy some fields.

After chatting with Roche for a while, Liu Jin took out the "wordless heavenly book" in her arms, put it under the pillow, held Roche's arm and narrowed her eyes.

Too many things happened today, which made Liu Jin tired. Before long, she entered her dream.

Roche didn't feel sleepy at all. She picked up the pillow and leaned on the bed wall to recall what happened today.

Thinking about it, she couldn't help crying again.

In order not to wake Liu Jin, she covered her mouth and cried stiffly.

Liu Jin was confused. She seemed to feel some liquid dripping on her face. She couldn't help moving her body.

Seeing this, Roche quickly wiped away his tears and dared not cry again.

She lay down and hugged Liu Jin tightly. Fortunately, she had her jin'er with her, otherwise she really didn't know how long she could survive.

The next morning, when the genius was dim and bright, Roche got up and went to the kitchen to make wild vegetable cakes.

Before long, Liu Jin woke up.

She dressed quickly and went to the kitchen to freshen up.

"Jin'er, the meal is ready. You can eat it after grooming. I'll see if master Mu wakes up." Roche came out from under the stove with a smile.

Liu Jin brushed her teeth with willow branches and answered her voice indistinctly.

Roche came to Mu Yu's house and Mu Yu woke up.

"Young master mu, do you want to freshen up? I'll fetch you some water." Roche whispered.

"Aunt, please." Mu Yu is cold, but he is basically polite. Now he eats and drinks from others. Anyway, he should be polite.

Luo Shi smiled: "young master mu, don't be polite to me."

When Roche entered the kitchen to fetch water, Liu Jin had picked up the wild vegetable cake in the pot and chewed it.

"So hot!" Liu Jin said while eating. Her mouth was hot and trembling.

Roche shook his head helplessly: "you girl, hot, can't you eat slowly?"

Liu Jin smiled sweetly: "I blame my mother for making delicious cakes, so I can't help eating while it's hot."

"You'll be speechless." Roche reached out and poked Liu Jin's forehead. He said angrily, "slow down, don't swallow."

Liu Jin slowed down to eat. Roche was relieved to prepare grooming utensils for mu Yu.

"Mom, the medicine on childe Mu will be changed when I come back." Liu Jin said vaguely.

In fact, she really wanted her mother to change it, but she was afraid that her mother could not change it well.

"Well, the county is a little far away. You should pay attention to safety on the road." Roche bailed out water while telling him.

Roche scooped up the water and turned to Mu Yu's house.

She put the willow branch in Mu Yu's hand: "Mr. mu, brush your teeth first."

"What is this?" Mu Yu looked at the willow branch in his hand and asked suspiciously.

Roche explained, "it's used to brush our teeth. We poor people can't afford to brush their teeth, so we use wicker instead."

Mu Yu was a little embarrassed. He studied it and couldn't use the willow branch well. He said, "aunt, please give me some salt water and I'll rinse my mouth."

Roche smiled and went to get the crude salt.

When Mu Yu finished washing, Liu Jin was full. She was going out with a basket on her back.

Roche came out of the main room and saw it. He hurried to the kitchen and put some cakes in a cloth bag to catch up with Liu Jin.

"Jin'er, wait a minute, take this wild vegetable cake and cushion your stomach when you are hungry on the road."

Liu Jin took the wild vegetable cake, put it in the basket, and walked outside the village.

The county is more than an hour away from her home. She walked along the main road, but found that there are still more people going to the county today.

Along the way, she met many people from the same village.

One of them was Mrs. Li, who was greedy for good deeds. When she saw that Liu Jin's back basket was very heavy, she asked curiously, "girl Jin, what's in your back basket? Why is it so heavy? Is there anything good to sell in the city?"

"It's just some wild vegetables. I'll see if I can sell it." Liu Jin didn't want to pay attention to Mrs. Li, but everyone was curious about what was in her basket, so she lied.
