Chapter 13 Memories



The most urgent task is to rebuild trust with Li Aihua.

"Mom, how did you marry Dad?" Let's start with this, which is more in line with her current identity.

This memory is relatively good for Li Aihua.

Judging from the Hu family's desire to have a son, Li Aihua should have lived a peaceful life when she first married into the Hu family.

"Blind date."

"What is a blind date?"

"It's just two people taking a look at it arranged by their families."

Hu Lin: "..."

This was the most sloppy blind date she had ever heard of.

"So you fell in love with dad at first sight?"

"have no idea."

She was divorced and stayed at home for two years. She spent the first half year recuperating, almost all the time staying in bed and making do with two mushy meals a day.

As soon as she was able to go out to work, her family started arranging blind dates for her. Apart from doing housework, she spent her days going on blind dates.

All she heard every day at the dinner table was asking those matchmakers to give a certain amount of dowry, but she couldn't remember what any of the people they were talking about looked like.

Later, many of the potential relationships fell through because people felt that their families asked for too much in gifts.

At the dinner table, they talked every day about how they were unable to get out of bed, how their spouse looked down on them, and how they wanted to reduce the bride price.

When her ex-husband's family knew that she was going on a blind date, they spread the news that they often asked his family for help.

After that she couldn't get married.

At the dinner table, she became that useless person, and people began to say that she was a money-loser and a live-in eater.

Two years passed like this, and then the Hu family arrived.

At this time, her family just wanted to marry her off, and the Hu family only paid five dollars, and she and Hu Xiaoyi were married.

They didn't have a wedding banquet, they just got the certificate.

When we arrived at Xiaohe Village on a ox cart, my mother-in-law said that when she gave birth to a son, she would hold a wedding banquet and a hundred-day party at the same time to have a double happiness, and she promised to make it a grand occasion.

"Then why did you marry Dad?"

"Aren't women born to get married?"

Hu Lin: "..."

What a lame excuse.

"Then what was your reason for choosing Dad?"

"No choice." She never had a choice.

Hu Lin: "..."

It's so difficult to communicate like this!

"Are you sad that dad treated you like this?"

"Not sad." Compared to my ex-husband's family, the Hu family is much better.

Hu Lin was a little crazy.

There's no way to continue the conversation at all in this shitty day.

"I heard that your ex-husband treated you very badly. Didn't you ever think of resisting at the time?"

"Resist?" Li Aihua looked at Hu Lin, her eyes slightly red. "It's useless. Resistance is useless."

From Li Aihua's words, Hu Lin felt the despair and fear hidden deep in her heart.

"Does resistance make you lose something?"

Memories that Li Aihua had been suppressing in her heart and had never told anyone about came flooding back to her mind, and she was shaking with fear.

Hu Lin couldn't bear it and hugged Li Aihua.

She was once a young girl and had looked forward to getting married.

Her original family dragged her down, leaving her isolated and helpless, struggling in despair, and turning her into the half-human she is today.

"My child..." Li Aihua looked terrified. Her eyes could not focus on the real situation and she was lost in terrible memories.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's all over, it's all over."

Li Aihua was trembling so violently that her breathing became rapid.

The strength with which he held Hu Lin was incredible, like a drowning man who happened to find a piece of driftwood and held on tightly, refusing to let go.

Hu Lin was strangled so hard that he could hardly breathe.

It seems that Li Aihua has mental problems. She has such a severe stress reaction when her ex-husband is mentioned.

Hu Lin didn't ask any more questions and comforted Li Aihua in a gentle tone.

It took a long time for Li Aihua to calm down. She realized what she had done and pushed Hu Lin away.

Hu Lin fell to the ground without warning and looked at Li Aihua angrily, "Why are you like this?"

You're turning your back on me, right?

Li Aihua fled to the kitchen like a frightened rabbit, and did not let Hu Lin light the fire. She was busy in the kitchen by herself.

Hu Lin did not expect things to develop to this point.

Li Aihua has suffered severe psychological trauma, and this matter is obviously not suitable to continue.

We have to find another way.

In the afternoon, Li Aihua sent Hu Lin to the health center, and Doctor Zhao gave Hu Lin an IV.

"I brought back three cans of nutritional supplements. They're enough for you to eat until you recover."

"It's not enough. My mother is too weak. I need to give her some supplements."

After a while, when she feels the changes in her body, she will finally be able to believe in herself.

"You're going too far. I'm helping you, but that doesn't mean you can use my money to nourish your mother's body." Doctor Zhao was a little unhappy.

"Whoever wants to spend your money should put it on the village chief's account."

"Are you and your family members stupid? Can you eat so many nutritional supplements by yourself?"

"They won't say anything. Just bring more next time."

"Why are you so sure?"

"Because they owe me a life."

Doctor Zhao was stunned for a moment, then raised his voice, "So it wasn't an accident—"

"Shh——" Hu Lin stopped Dr. Zhao calmly.

"Then you are just kidding me when you make a bet with me. I can't win at all." The Yang family wanted to shut the Hu family up, so naturally they had to accept it.

"You didn't gamble, so our agreement still stands."

She is in a low position now, and these things that seem insignificant under normal circumstances are of vital importance to her.

"Isn't this a good thing for me?"

"That's easy. Just help me more in the future."

"Who knows if you can get up." After Dr. Zhao figured it out, he admired Hu Lin even more.

"Don't worry, if you follow me, even a pig can fly to the sky."

"Just blow it."

At night, Hu Lin did not go back by himself, but waited for Li Aihua to pick her up.

Seeing Li Aihua approaching from afar, Hu Lin took out the nutritional supplement, scooped two spoonfuls of it into an enamel cup, and added warm water.

When Li Aihua arrived at the health room, Hu Lin handed the enamel cup in his hand to Li Aihua and said, "Drink some water."

Li Aihua, who had never been treated like this before, was a little flattered.

Li Aihua stopped drinking after taking a sip. "Bitch, what did you put in this?"

The water was milky white and smelled sweet, but it had no taste when she drank it, like a diluted paste, something she had never seen before.

"It's good stuff. Drink it quickly. I'm waiting to go back to eat. I'm starving." Hu Lin was afraid that Li Aihua would not drink it, so he urged her.

"nice one?"

Is this something she can drink too?

"Ah, I left it especially for you. If you don't drink it, give it to me and I'll drink it." Hu Lin pretended to take it back.

Li Aihua handed it to Hu Lin and said, "Here you go."

In Li Aihua's opinion, these good things have nothing to do with her and she does not deserve to have them.

When she heard that Hu Lin was going back, she felt relieved.

Hu Lin: "..."

"You've already drunk it. I don't want it." Hu Lin ran away directly.
