Chapter 7： What a bunch of beasts

Chapter 7 is really a bunch of beasts

"It's hard to say a word, but it's not impossible to say it, but it's good for you to know about it, don't let it out, I promised them when I came out, otherwise they wouldn't let me go."

"Say it, say it" Lu Sanniang's gossip factor sparked immediately.

"I just married into my in-law's family within two months, and my husband went to serve in the military. His family in Tiantian didn't treat me very well. After he left, my mother-in-law started to rub me, even when I was pregnant with a child."

Qiao Mai told Lu Sanniang about the abuse of herself by the Tian family.

Hearing this, Lu Sanniang gritted her teeth, "What a bunch of beasts, where is your mother's family? Why didn't you support me?"

Qiao Mai's eye circles were red, "My mother's family is from Lihua Village. Since the day I got married, they didn't let me go home. They said that it was the water thrown by the married girl. From now on, I will be cut off from my family."

"My own flesh and blood can really say this ruthlessly. With your embroidery skills, the Laotian family will definitely not treat you like this, right?"

Qiao Mai sneered, "I learned this craft secretly from a mother-in-law when I was in my natal family. I originally wanted to take over the job after I learned it well, so that my natal family could live better, but before I had time to say it, my natal family gave me a hundred catties of wheat. The bride price was sold to the Tian family."

"The Tian family never knew you could embroider?"

She shook her head, "After seeing what my parents did, how dare I expose it easily. I planned to wait for a year or so, but I didn't know that they treated me like this when I first entered the house. Fortunately, I didn't expose it, otherwise I will never be able to step out of the Tian family in this lifetime."

"Such a family, why should you treat them like a cow and a horse, and make money for them, sister, you did the right thing, you should leave."

Lu Sanniang was so angry that she took Qiao Mai's hand and looked at it, her eyes were turning red.

"Don't worry, with your embroidery skills, it won't take long for your life to get better. Let's go, there is still a house under my sister's name that has not been rented out. You can live in it and take care of yourself first. Oh, look. It's skinny."

"Thank you, Sister Lu." Qiao Mai wiped his tears with his sleeve.

"Don't cry, your premature birth hurt your body, you shouldn't cry, it's bad for your eyes, even if you do embroidery work in the future, you can't embroider to death, remember to protect your eyes."

"My sister is a good person, I am lucky to meet her."

"Okay, let's not talk anymore, don't talk anymore, if you talk too much, you will be angry. You can't be angry now."

Lu Sanniang said to Ruyi, "Go inside, and tell your sister not to make a fuss, come out and guard the door with you, mother will come when she goes."

She went behind the counter, took a key and a money bag, stuffed it into her bosom, took Qiao Mai's hand and walked out.

Knowing that it was only a few days after the baby was born, Qiao Mai was not walking fast, so he comforted her all the way.

"Don't worry, you can live in my house as long as you want."

"Sister, I'm afraid I will have to trouble you in the future."

"Why are you being polite to me, we are partners, these are what I should do."

After seeing her craftsmanship and hearing her story, Lu Sanniang sincerely wanted to help her, and also wanted to keep her to cooperate with her.

Passing by a ready-made clothing store, she bought two sets of clothes for Qiao Mai from inside to outside. At the cloth store, she bought a thick mattress, a thick quilt, a thin quilt and a pillow.

Passing by a grocery store, and bought a bunch of daily necessities, she took Qiao Mai's hand and walked ahead, followed by a few delivery guys, and went to her house with great vigor.

This is a courtyard house, very new, it should have been built not long ago, with green bricks and green tiles, the inside is very clean, and there is a faint smell of wood.

"Come in, girl,"

Lu Sanniang took her into the bedroom of the upper room. The guys put their things in the yard and left. Lu Sanniang moved inside and out several times.

She laid out the kang, spread out all the quilts, and put a big cloth bag on the corner of the kang.

"Sister, there are clothes inside. You change them inside and out. I'll go to burn the kang. You are wearing such thin clothes and your body is so thin. Go and lie down under the quilt. There are other things like my sister and me."

"Hey, then I won't be polite to my sister."

Qiao Mai was a little moved. I have to say that this woman is straightforward, diligent, capable, and very kind-hearted.

From the beginning to the end, she never disliked her.

Qiao Mai took advantage of Lu Sanniang's absence, took off her clothes and put on a new underwear, no matter whether her hands, feet and face were dirty, she quickly got into bed, she really needed a good rest.

The inside of the quilt is made of fine coarse cloth, the outside is old coarse cloth, and the core is cotton, which is fluffy and soft, and it is very comfortable to cover.

At this time, you can't pay attention to anything, let your body warm up first.

Lu Sanniang raised the kang stove to see if there was water in the jar, and boiled a large pot of water in the big iron pot.

Then I went out again, bought a charcoal stove, a large casserole, a bag of charcoal, a basket of eggs, a small bag of flour, and a small bag of millet, and put them in the kitchen.

First boiled a dozen or so eggs, then washed the millet, boiled it in a casserole, and washed a large bowl of brown sugar water.

Holding brown sugar water in one hand and boiled eggs in the other, she entered the bedroom.

"Sister?"

Qiao Mai opened his eyes, "Sister Lu."

"Come, eat it while it's hot. Sister boiled eggs for you, with brown sugar water. Eat more, so that your body can recover quickly."

Qiao Mai was really moved, she shed tears.

"Sister, you are so kind!"

"You don't have to be moved. I treat you like this. First, I really love you. Second, I am optimistic about you. We will cooperate in the future. You have to cheer up and take good care of your body. If you need anything, tell your sister. You are welcome. Take good care of your body so that you can do embroidery work, and my sister can earn more money by taking advantage of you."

"Don't worry, sister, I will get better soon."

Qiao Mai ate five eggs in one go and drank a large bowl of brown sugar water.

Lu Sanniang covered her with the corner of the quilt, then put the bowl on the edge of the kang, touched the soil kang, the stove was already burning, and the kang began to heat up.

"Sleep well, I cooked millet porridge for you in the kitchen, if you are hungry, get up and warm it up,"

"Sister Lu, go get busy, don't worry about me, I can move."

"After I'm done, I'll leave. I'll lock the door for you from the outside. You're a woman. I don't worry. I'll come see you tomorrow. By the way, if you want to go to the toilet, go to the backyard. The toilet is in the back. It's very clean." of."

Qiao Mai sniffled, "I see, Sister Lu."

Mrs. Lu touched her face lightly, then turned around and left the room, closing the door gently.

Still sighing softly, she went to the kitchen to cook a small pot of thinner millet porridge, turned off the fire in the stove, and then locked the door and went back to the shop.

Hearing Lu's departure, Qiao Mai opened his eyes and flashed into the space.

The little guy is humming and chirping, and will cry if he doesn't come, she must be hungry.

Qiao Mai opened the swaddle first and took a look. Seeing feces and urine on it, she hurriedly cleaned it up and replaced it with a clean one.

Take the dirty ones outside, find a shelf, and put the diapers on it.

When I came back, I poured milk powder for the child, this time only a little. After feeding the child, I turned her side and patted her back lightly.

Seeing that the little guy fell asleep, he walked out of the room and stared at the diaper on the shelf in a daze.

The decontamination function of this space is particularly strong. After a while, the diaper is almost clean, which is really easy.

Back in the house, she lay down next to the child, covered with a silk quilt, and fell asleep after a while.

In fact, she wanted to go back to sleep on the kang, but she thought that her body was too dirty, and the space has the function of decontamination, so she planned to sleep and let the space clean up the dirt on her body.

Lu Sanniang returned to the shop. Her eldest daughter, Lu Ruxin, and her second daughter, Lu Ruyi, were sorting out the goods they had received.

"Mom, why have you been here for so long? It's almost dark."

"You don't know, this little woman is really pitiful, she staggers when she walks, and her body is so thin that only a handful of bones are left."

"There are too many poor people, you can't manage it."
