Chapter 2: Resurrection



Accompanied by a rude "bang" sound of the door being pushed open, a few seconds later, she was pulled up by someone with the quilt pulled off her.

Lu Youxi was completely awake now. When he opened his eyes, he saw Mrs. Lu's face, with disgust written all over her wrinkles, standing in front of him.

"Hurry up and get ready! You don't help with the housework during the holidays, and you're sleeping in! Is your family raising you for nothing?" Old Mrs. Lu let go of Lu Youxi and yelled, "You're so lazy, I don't think anyone would be willing to marry you, hurry up and get up!"

After saying this, Mrs. Lu strode out of the door.

Lu Youxi stared at Old Lady Lu's back in a daze.

Didn't I die? I died suddenly because of the intense work and exercise.

And Mrs. Lu has been dead for many years.

But now...

Lu Youxi looked at her hands. Because she had done so much work, they were so rough that they didn't look like the hands of a young girl at all.

Her hands were much more delicate when she was 38 years old than they are now.

Looking at the surrounding environment, it is just simple village houses.

When Lu Youxue was still young, she lived in the same room with Lu Youxue. Later, when Lu Youxue grew up, she was also a grown-up girl, and even though they were siblings, it was not convenient for them to live in the same room.

Her grandparents cleaned out a storage room in their house and used it as a bedroom for her.

The room was dark and damp, with patches of damp marks on the walls.

Lu Youxi got up from the bed and came to the calendar hanging on the wall.

She really came back, back to 20 years ago.

Lu Youxi couldn't believe it and even pinched himself hard.

The tangible pain reminded her that this was all real.

"Lu Youxi, what are you still dawdling about?" Old Lady Lu's loud voice was heard again outside the door.

Lu Youxi quickly cleaned up and went to the kitchen.

In fact, it is only a short while since dawn.

As soon as I entered the kitchen, I saw my mother Liu Yusu adding firewood.

"Mom." Lu Youxi's voice was a little hoarse and he called out with some difficulty.

"Hey!" Liu Yushu pulled Lu Youxi in and secretly gave her a boiled egg. "Eat it first. You don't have to work. When your milk comes in later, you can just get up and pretend."

The two elders of the Lu family are very patriarchal, but Liu Yusu loves her daughter.

She was incompetent and couldn't stand on her own at home, but she couldn't just watch her daughter suffer.

Lu Youxi looked down at the egg in his hand, which was still hot. He also did not ignore the wounds on his mother's rough hands from working.

In her previous life, she resented her grandparents for favoring boys over girls, resented her father for being foolishly filial, resented her mother for being weak and allowing her to be bullied, and resented her younger brother for taking away everything from her.

So she became even more annoyed by her mother's behavior of secretly giving her things and being nice to her.

We are both children of the same family, so why do we have to be sneaky when we treat her well? Why does she have to eat even an egg secretly? It's as if she is the one who is stealing the food from the family, as if she shouldn't be eating it.

So every time her mother secretly gave her something, she would throw it back.

She still remembered that once before, her mother secretly gave her eggs to eat and asked her not to tell anyone. She just turned her face away, said she didn't want it, and left.

Lu Youxi closed his eyes to relieve his red and painful eyes.

After a while, when he looked up, he saw Liu Yusu looking anxious, and he was afraid that she would refuse again.

Lu Youxi peeled the egg carefully, as if it were a treasure.

Liu Yusu felt more and more uncomfortable as she watched her actions.

If it wasn't because her family treated Lu Youxi badly, why would she cherish an egg as if she had found something precious? Lu Youxi threw the peeled eggshell into the fire to destroy it, so as to avoid being seen by Mrs. Lu and causing another quarrel.

She stood up and saw Liu Yusu busy cutting vegetables.

Lu Youxi broke the egg into two halves and walked to Liu Yusu's side, "Mom, you eat too."

"I don't..." Liu Yusu was about to refuse. She had secretly saved it for Lu Youxi, so how could she bear to eat it?

In this family, only Grandpa Lu, Lu Youxi's father and Lu Youxue can eat an egg every day.

Not to mention her and Lu Youxi, even Old Lady Lu doesn't have it.

But Lu Youxi took advantage of Liu Yusu's moment to refuse and stuffed half an egg into her mouth.

She also stuffed the other half into her mouth, eating the egg while smiling at Liu Yusu.

Liu Yusu smiled helplessly yet happily, lowered her head, cut vegetables and slowly swallowed the half egg with care.

Lu Youxi washed his hands, rolled up his sleeves, and went to help.

"Didn't I tell you to rest?" Liu Yusu said hurriedly.

"It's okay, I'll go with you and do it faster so you can relax." Lu Youxi said with a smile.

In her previous life, Liu Yusu didn't let her do it and only asked her to pretend. But she was resentful in her heart. If Mrs. Lu found out, she would beat her again.

So she felt that Liu Yusu obviously couldn't protect her, but always gave her bad advice.

Every time she didn't listen, and did her work with resentment, making a lot of ping-pong noises.

Liu Yusu was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head and wiped her eyes with her sleeve.

"It's my fault, Mom..."

"Mom." Lu Youxi interrupted Liu Yushu. She used to hate Liu Yushu the most for blaming herself while being unable to do anything, and complaining about herself like Tang Monk chanting sutras. But now, hearing this, Lu Youxi only felt kind and distressed. However, she, who had been strong all her life, didn't know how to comfort her. She could only change the subject to distract Liu Yushu's attention, "Have you learned to walk?"

Lu Youxue goes to primary school in the town. Because it is quite far, he sets out before dawn every day.

"Well, I brought him a steamed bun, an egg, and a bag of milk for him to eat on the way." After Liu Yusu finished speaking, she suddenly regretted it.

Lu Youxi knew that it was because of the milk.

Liu Yusu could secretly give Lu Youxi eggs, but she didn't dare to give her milk.

We went to the town to buy milk, a box at a time. For the two grown men in the family plus Lu Youxue, it was considered lucky if they could drink it for a few days.

If there is one bag missing, Mrs. Lu will know.

"Mom." Lu Youxi said softly, "You don't have to be so cautious. I was ignorant before and couldn't understand your difficulties, but now I have grown up and become an adult. I can't throw tantrums like before."

Now that God has given her a chance to start over, she will definitely change the way she lives.

I will no longer be with Lin Jingshen and will not have anything to do with the Lin family.

I will also help my parents and younger brother to become better and make up for all that I owe them.
