Chapter 10 The sixteen-year-old girl and the eighteen-year-old girl cried together
The next day, Wen Zhu woke up with back pain and calf cramps. She was exhausted from walking too much the day before while escaping. The aftereffects set in as soon as she rested. Even though she was a reasonably skilled Chinese medicine practitioner, she could only massage to alleviate the pain; it couldn't completely eliminate it.
After breakfast, she got into the Qian family's car and prepared to go home.
She originally planned to take the bus back by herself, but she couldn't refuse the invitation.
Qian Xusen insisted on following him, saying that he wanted Wen Zhu to treat his leg and didn't want anyone else to do it.
Even if his father is the richest man in South City, he can't take his naughty child away.
And now we have this scene: on Wen Zhu’s left sits a lame, tsundere, middle school second syndrome naughty boy, and on his right sits the haunting, ice-faced male protagonist.
The reason why Ice Face followed was because he said that the task assigned to him by his superior had not been completed and he had to complete it strictly before leaving.
Wen Zhu originally planned to refuse.
But Qian Xusen's father had to go back to work and had already left in a truck. Seeing that Qian Xusen had a lame leg, he left the car to him.
That's not the point. The point is that his father gave him too much! It's unacceptable not to take the child with him!
Wen Zhu touched the extra hundred yuan in his pocket.
Suddenly, she felt that her waist was no longer sore, her legs no longer hurt, and she was no longer out of breath when walking. Now she felt that she could climb to the sixth floor in one breath.
On the surface, Wen Zhu appears to be a cool and steady master of traditional Chinese medicine, but in fact he is silently calculating his own small treasury in his mind.
Before, mother had 20 yuan sewn into her pocket, she spent 3.5 yuan on shoes and socks, 10 cents on meat buns, 2.2 yuan on Chinese medicinal materials, and gave away 3 yuan with other people's silver needles and alcohol. The old man forced her to pay 18.56 yuan for medical fees, 100 yuan for leg treatment given by Mr. Qian, and 100 yuan for his son's future living expenses that Mr. Qian insisted on giving to him today, so she now has 20-3.5-0.1-2.2-3+18.56+11.3+100+100=241.06 yuan!
Two hundred and forty-one dollars and six cents!
Thinking of this, she turned to look at the boy on her left and gave him a gentle, auntie smile.
The smile is bright and charming.
The boy felt a little uncomfortable when he saw that the girl who had been cold to him before suddenly smiled at him so gently, and turned his head awkwardly towards the car window.
The tip of her ear turned red.
Wen Zhu didn't notice her reaction, but just cursed himself in his heart. This guy is not a naughty little bully with a second-year syndrome, this is clearly a pure and honest straightforward little brother!
She apologized in her heart for her previous disdain for him and decided to call him a proud little money sponsor!
Money healed her wounded body, but it couldn't withstand the swaying of the car on the mountain road, and soon she fell into a deep sleep.
Falling asleep would prevent her from thinking about things she didn't want to think about.
When I opened my eyes again, I was almost home.
Wen Zhu quickly sat up straight to ease his nervousness.
Although she lived with her family for sixteen years after traveling through time, after awakening her past life memories, she seemed to be infused with the soul of another person.
Here she is a good girl who is sweet, sensible, calm and brave, but in her previous life she was a domineering, strong, lonely and cold freak.
The sudden fusion of two completely different personalities gave her a completely different temperament.
She didn't know what she was afraid of. Perhaps she was afraid of exposing her previous life's dominance and aloofness, and her family would no longer like her. Or perhaps she was worried that she wouldn't be able to fully integrate into this family, and would have to go through the same lonely years she had in the orphanage in her previous life.
In this life, I grew up in a honeypot of love and tolerance, but this cannot suppress the hardships that my other half has suffered.
There was a struggle between her conscience and her desires in her mind, but time did not leave her much time to dwell on it, because the car had stopped and she saw her family through the window.
Except for the eldest brother Jiang Jiannan who went to college in another place, the rest of the family, father Wen Hong, mother Jiang Qin, second brother Jiang Jianbei, and third brother Jiang Jianye were all looking at the village entrance.
She stretched the corners of her tightly pursed lips into a smile, was the last one to get off the car, and shouted to her mother who was still looking around.
"Mom, I'm back."
As soon as she finished speaking, the middle-aged woman, who was dressed in coarse cloth and had slightly gray hair but could not hide her unique and bright temperament, immediately turned around and ran towards Wen Zhu, hugged her tightly, put her hand on her back, and patted her arm complainingly.
"You stinky little girl, you're going to drive your mother crazy, making me so anxious that I can't eat or sleep, so you'll be happy, right? You stinky little girl scared your mother to death. I thought I'd never see you again. How could I live like that..."
After saying a few words, he burst into tears.
Dad and brothers also ran over and surrounded her with concern in their eyes.
Her mother hugged her so tightly that she could hardly breathe, but she didn't hate it and felt very safe.
The familiar scent of soapberry on her mother made her feel at ease, and her heart seemed to have found a home. At this moment, she felt like a complete person.
She was originally nervous and uneasy, but now she had no time to think about those things. Being held by her mother, she only felt her heart and eyes swollen.
Tears have their own thoughts, they want to flow freely, Wen Zhu couldn't help crying. From sobbing softly, to wailing loudly.
Dad and brother held Wen Zhu and Mom in the middle, comforting them silently with tears in their eyes.
16-year-old Wen Zhu escaped death and was not gutted and left exposed in the wilderness. She was not cannon fodder!
At 18, Wen Zhu is no longer an orphan, no longer the freak or wild child others call her. She has a mother and a family!
The sixteen-year-old and the eighteen-year-old cried uncontrollably together.
Children who have mothers and are loved by their families have the right to cry.
After crying for a long time, Wen Zhu's eyes were blurred by tears, his emotions gradually vented, and his rationality returned.
With tearful eyes, I saw the figures around me, and then I remembered that there were other people around, not just my family.
Wen Zhu stopped crying and her family gradually calmed down. She wiped her tears with her sleeves and also helped her mother wipe away her tears.
Jiang Qin then looked her daughter over and over. Her face and hands were covered in wounds. Although the wounds were not large, they were shocking on her fair skin. The tears she had just wiped away began to flow again.
"My dear, what a great suffering this has caused me! My dear, I am suffering."
Wen Zhu had just finished crying when she said in a muffled voice, "Mom, these are just minor injuries. I applied some medicine yesterday. They will heal in a few days."
Jiang Jianbei said, "It's my fault that I didn't come back to pick up my sister the first time."
Jiang Jianye also rushed to take the blame, "Blame me, blame me for being so engrossed in a problem that I forgot the time..."
Wen Hong spoke at the right time, "We all have responsibilities. It's too late to say anything now. We can only make arrangements for the future and not leave our beloved daughter alone."
Jiang Qin carefully checked Wen Zhu over and over again several times, and after getting Wen Zhu's assurance, he was able to reluctantly put his mind at ease temporarily.
