22nd-century medical and poison expert, mercenary assassin Yun Zhaoxue, transmigrates into a book as a malicious cannon fodder female supporting character.
In the original novel, the original...
Chapter 119 He can only live for two more years
Yun Zhaoxue stepped out of everyone's sight, hid in a corner, and went into her spatial dimension to make something to eat to fill her stomach.
Because I had just vomited, I didn't have much of an appetite, and there was nothing I wanted to eat among all the food. Suddenly, I wanted to eat instant noodles, so I quickly turned on the stove and cooked a small bowl of instant noodles, added some meat and vegetables, put in the seasoning, and boiled it for two minutes before taking it out of the pot.
Lying on the massage chair, eating while getting a massage, I didn't leave the space until half an hour later, and returned to lie down in the corner of the dilapidated temple.
Everyone except Xiao Xuance was there. They had just finished making the beds when Xiao Xuanwu brought back some steamed buns and was dividing them up, one for each of the two children.
Yang was about to hand over one of her steamed buns to Xiao Mingshu.
Yun Zhaoxue had already given her share of cornbread to Xiao Mingshu.
Xiao Mingshu was flattered and declined, saying, "Third sister-in-law, I'm not hungry, you eat it, no need to give it to me."
Those with two or three bedrooms were at the very back of the queue and didn't get a spot, so they stayed outside.
Her share of cornbread should have been distributed to the third branch of the family. Even if she were at home, the team wouldn't get a whole one; they could only eat half. When they got hungry, they would pick wild fruits on the road to fill their stomachs.
Madam Yang was worried that Xiao Mingshu would be bullied if she stayed with them, so she let her squeeze in with the eldest son's family. Although she would eventually have to return to her biological family, and they couldn't protect her forever, it would be good to protect her for a while.
“I don’t like cornbread. If you’re given some, you should eat it. It’s such a long night. If you don’t eat anything, you won’t make it to tomorrow.”
"But if I eat it, you won't have any left to eat."
"I have no appetite. Eat up. What you eat is yours. If you dawdle, it will be taken away and you will be the one who goes hungry."
Hearing her unquestionable tone, Xiao Mingshu dared not refuse any longer. She clutched the steamed bun tightly in her hand, quickly stood up, and bowed to express her gratitude: "Thank you, Third Sister-in-law."
"No need to be so polite."
Leaning against the wall, Xiao Xiuning broke off pieces of cornbread and ate them one by one. "You're so generous. I'm your own sister-in-law, and you've never given me a single cornbread."
Yun Zhaoxue glared at her coldly, "I'd rather not have your sister-in-law than help others bully her. You want to eat my cornbread? Dream on. I'd be glad I didn't feed you poisonous mushrooms."
“You, Mother, listen to her! She actually said she was going to feed me poisonous mushrooms. If I get poisoned one day, it will be because she poisoned me.”
"You have two cornbread buns of your own, and Shu'er has nothing to eat. It's one thing not to share with her, but you also bully her and target Xue'er. You've gone too far. Apologize." Madam Yang was fair and impartial; if her own daughter was wrong, she was wrong, and she didn't side with her.
Xiao Xiuning's eyes reddened with anger as she looked at Madam Yang in disbelief. "Mother, I am your daughter! Why do you always side with me instead of outsiders?"
“They are not outsiders, they are all family. If you do the right thing, I will side with you. Now that you have done something wrong, you should apologize and promise me that you will not target Shuer and Xueer again.”
"I'm targeting them? They're the ones who ganged up on me, and you're still siding with them. Nobody welcomes me in this house. I'll leave and give them my place, okay?" Xiao Xiuning stood up abruptly, threw the steamed bun on the ground, and ran out.
Xiao Xuanwu chased after her, calling out, "Fourth Sister, Fourth Sister, don't run around! It's dangerous outside!"
Yang leaned against the wall, her eyes slightly closed, looking exhausted.
Xiao Mingshu felt guilty. She clutched the cornbread in her hand, not daring to eat it. She put it back in her cloth bag, picked up her things, and was about to leave.
Seeing this, Yun Zhaoxue asked, "Where are you going? This has nothing to do with you; it's her problem."
Xie Wanyun also advised her to stay, "Yes, Shuer, it's not safe outside, don't go out."
“Yes, whatever you do, don’t go out. What if the bandits catch up with us… It’s too dangerous outside, child. You didn’t do anything wrong, don’t think too much. It was Ning’er who was wrong. I’ll take her to apologize on your behalf. When she comes back, I’ll give her a good scolding.” Madam Yang stepped forward and took the basket off her back and put it back on the cart.
About an hour later, Xiao Xuance returned.
Yun Zhaoxue lay down and almost fell asleep.
Xiao Xuance somehow acquired a beggar's chicken. The chicken was wrapped in lotus leaves, and there was a layer of mud on the outside of the lotus leaves.
It's getting late. I used to be asleep by now, but I'm forcing myself to keep going to escape death. Most people are tired and want to sleep, and don't want to cook or bother. I bought some dried meat, steamed buns, flatbread, and pancakes yesterday, so I'll eat these. If I don't have any, I'll just eat cornbread. I'm going to lie down and rest.
The moment he brought it in, the aroma filled the entire dilapidated temple. Everyone turned to look, swallowing hard; the meat smelled so good!
The group, who had just eaten cornbread, were hungry again.
They wanted to eat meat too, but they could only dream about it. They decided to go to sleep, because they wouldn't be hungry when they were asleep.
Xiao Xuance opened the lotus leaf, tore off a chicken leg, and subconsciously handed it to Yun Zhaoxue first.
I only remembered that there was also a Yang family member when I took it out. Since ancient times, the elderly have been given priority.
Seeing him looking at her, Madam Yang waved her hand and said, "Give it to Xue'er first. She hasn't eaten anything. We've already eaten cornbread. We'll eat after she's full."
Yun Zhaoxue wasn't full after eating noodles, and two hours later, she smelled the aroma of meat and wanted to eat some too.
She didn't want to make things difficult for herself, and having conflicts wouldn't stop her from eating meat.
Yang said they could only eat after she recovered, so Xie Wanyun didn't dare to ask for food.
Yun Zhaoxue took a big bite and noticed that everyone around her was staring at her. She glanced at them and quickly looked away.
It made her seem like she was eating alone. She said, "One leg is enough for me. You can share the rest with everyone."
"Xue'er, you eat first. We're not hungry. You're carrying twins now, so you need to eat more to nourish your body. This will make the children you give birth to even smarter."
"This is enough for me. You should eat too. We have to travel tomorrow, and we won't be able to walk if we don't eat meat to nourish ourselves."
If she didn't eat noodles in the space, she could eat a whole chicken; after that, she would feel full.
In the original book, the child follows the original owner of the body.
After eating the chicken, everyone lay down to sleep.
Ms. Yang noticed that her third son and his wife seemed to be having another argument, so she arranged for them to sleep next to each other.
Late at night, after everyone had fallen asleep, a figure suddenly sat up, climbed out of the window, and then scaled the low wall next to it, heading into the forest.
A faint light shone from a cave on the mountain. Xiao Xuance walked towards it, and Zhuiying, who was standing guard at the door, clasped his hands in a fist and whispered to him, "Your Highness."
"Um."
Zhuiying followed him inside and saw an old man dozing by the fire. She went up and woke him up, saying, "Dr. Hua, wake up, the young master is here."
Hua Murong was woken up by the push. He rubbed his eyes and looked at the tall man in front of him. "You brat, if you hadn't come soon, I would have fallen asleep. If it weren't for the fact that our Medicine Ghost Valley owes your father a favor, I wouldn't have bothered to make this long journey."
Hua Murong's half-white hair was disheveled, with several thick silver needles stuck in it. His beard was braided with the end sticking up. He wore tattered coarse linen clothes, and a worn-out wine pot hung from his waist. He looked like a beggar from somewhere.
Xiao Xuance bowed to him, "I'm sorry to have kept the divine physician waiting."
"Are you really willing to sacrifice your lifespan for treatment? Have you thought it through? There's no turning back once the arrow is released. Once treatment begins today, it cannot be stopped halfway. The consequence of stopping is that you will not be able to stand up and will only have two years left to live."
Xiao Xuance nodded slightly. "Yes, I've thought it through."
Zhu Feng said urgently, "Your Highness, why don't we wait a little longer? I'll go and inquire if there are any other solutions."
Zhuiying clasped his hands in a fist and pleaded with Hua Murong, "Divine Physician Hua, please think of another way?"
Doctor Hua shook his head. "If there were a better way, I would have said so long ago. His body is already at its limit. It's already difficult for him to live for two years. I don't know who gave him good medicine to keep him going so that he can walk for a few more days."
If you don't get treatment now and miss the best opportunity, you might not be able to stand up again even if you try later. If you've really thought it through, then drink that bowl of medicine.
