"Erlang, take the medicine..."
"Poisonous woman..."
…
In the dilapidated and leaky thatched hut, the man was lying on the bed and struggling violently.
An old woman in gray linen clothes was holding a bowl of black medicine and trying to pour it into his mouth...
Su Wei rubbed his eyes. The scene in front of him looked familiar. He seemed to have seen it somewhere.
But before she could figure it out, the porcelain bowl broke into pieces during the shoving between the two of them, and the room fell silent.
The man on the bed suddenly glared at Su Wei angrily: "Evil woman, I won't let you go even if I become a ghost..."
Su Wei “…”
No no no, it wasn't me, it was that old woman...
The old woman turned to look at her: "Why are you still standing there? If he doesn't die, how can you marry Mr. Dong?"
Su Wei “…”
Why does this scene look so familiar?
The next second, the old woman covered the man's face with a quilt...
She seemed to know where it was familiar...
The man was injured and weak. The struggle just now had exhausted his last bit of strength. Now he was being held down by the old woman who was used to doing farm work, and he couldn't break free.
Su Wei didn't have time to think about it and hurried to pull the old woman, but the old woman was ruthless and determined to kill the man.
Su Wei couldn't pull her, so in desperation, he picked up a bench on the ground and hit the old woman on the head with it.
The old woman turned to look at her. Su Wei took a step back in fright, and then the old woman fell straight down.
Su Wei gasped heavily and looked into the eyes of the man on the bed.
Calling him a man wasn't accurate. The man before him looked to be only about sixteen or seventeen years old. Although his face was dirty, one could still vaguely make out his handsome features, as well as his beautiful eyes that were filled with vigilance and hatred when he looked at Su Wei...
A name came out of his mouth: "Chen Yan..."
The man didn't respond. The air was eerily quiet, and the two people's breathing could be clearly heard.
Su Wei and Chen Yan, who wanted to eat her alive, looked at each other for a moment, feeling like crying but unable to shed tears.
What should I do?
After a moment of silence, Su Wei could only slowly move over and reach out to feel the old woman's breath...
Good, no more gas...
…
Chen Yan lay on the bed, watching the vicious woman move Wang Po's body out. After an unknown amount of time, the vicious woman came back.
"Chen Yan."
Su Wei screamed, but Chen Yan still ignored her. He didn't want to say a word to the vicious woman. If she dared to get close to him, he would bite off a piece of her flesh even with his teeth.
Seeing that he didn't react, Su Wei thought he was dead too and was immediately shocked...
Double kill at the start???
I don't know how fast the executioner's knife will cut her...
Afraid of pain...
She swallowed, and tremblingly reached out to feel Chen Yan's breath...
Fortunately, I still have breath...
Before Su Wei could breathe a sigh of relief, she felt a pain in her hand and Chen Yan bit her hand.
“Ahhhhhhhh…let go!”
Su Wei screamed, but Chen Yan refused to give in. His eyes were bloodshot and he stared at Su Wei with intense hatred.
Su Wei grimaced in pain, and his hand soon bled.
In desperation, she punched Shen Yan in the face.
Under normal circumstances, such a punch would have little deterrent effect.
But Chen Yan was really weak, and after struggling for a long time, he fainted.
Su Wei pulled his hand away and quickly ran out to rinse it with water. The icy cold water splashed over his hand, and two lines of tears flowed down his numb and red face...
She traveled through...
The original owner had the same name as her and lived in a village hundreds of miles away.
The year was unlucky, and there was a severe drought for three years. The original owner and his family fled the famine to find a way to survive.
On the way, she was separated from her parents and fainted from hunger at the door of the Shen family. It was Chen Yan's mother who saved her.
Shen's mother lost her husband early and lived a hard life with her two sons.
A few years ago, the imperial court recruited soldiers and Shen Dalang was drafted in.
Later, Shen Dalang not only survived, but also made great contributions and brought a lot of silver and money to his family.
The Shen family lived a comfortable life and everyone in the village envied and flattered them.
Not long ago, a piece of bad news came.
Shen Dalang was shot dead on the spot for treason.
Chen Yan hurried back from the academy, saw his bedridden mother, and learned the news of his eldest brother's death.
I wanted to raise money for my mother's medical treatment, but my house was occupied by my uncles and all my belongings were looted.
The Shen family was afraid of being implicated, so they threw out a letter of severance, completely drawing a line between themselves and Shen Yan and his mother.
Chen Yan had no choice but to work in a nearby quarry to earn money, but he accidentally got hit on the leg by a stone. The quarry was afraid of taking responsibility, so they paid him ten taels of silver and let the matter go.
Mother Shen was heartbroken and wanted justice, but she didn't know who to ask.
At this moment, the original owner fainted at the door of the Shen family.
Mother Shen couldn't bear to see her starve to death, so she rescued her.
The original owner thought the Shen family was poor and didn't want to stay, but the neighbor Wang Po said that the quarry gave Chen Yan ten taels of silver...
This is not a small amount of money. The original owner had evil intentions...
She pretended to be meek, saying that she liked Chen Yan, and patted her chest to assure Chen's mother that she would take good care of Chen Yan.
Shen's mother had been ill for many days and was hanging on by a thread. She was afraid that if she died, no one would take care of Shen Yan, so she agreed to the marriage between the original owner and Shen Yan.
There was no wedding banquet or guests at the wedding of the two people. They just kowtowed to Mother Shen and it was considered a success.
