Chapter 3 Protecting Her



"Lin Qingqing, you pissed my mom off to death. You have to pay for her life!"

When Zhou Yuan saw Xue Guixiang fainted on the ground, he didn't care about her mother's condition, but stepped in front of Lin Qingqing and pushed her down with both hands.

"Don't bully my wife!"

Although Zhou Zhuo was not very smart, he knew how to protect Lin Qingqing and immediately stood in front of Zhou Yuan.

Zhou Yuan didn't expect her to stand up, and her hands suddenly fell on Zhou Zhuo's chest. Because of the excessive force, Zhou Zhuo was pushed by her and spun on the spot, and fell on the bed with a thud.

Lin Qingqing was half lying down, and when Zhou Zhuo fell down, his whole body just wrapped around her. In order not to crush her, he supported himself on the bed with his hands and leaned over Lin Qingqing.

Suddenly, there was only a piece of paper between the two faces, and the enlarged handsome face of Zhou Zhuo made Lin Qingqing gasp.

In her past and present lives combined, this was the first time Lin Qingqing had come into such close contact with a man. A faint scent of soap entered her nostrils, and it was surprisingly pleasant.

Is he protecting her? It's a pity that he is not smart enough, otherwise, being protected by such a handsome man, Lin Qingqing would wake up laughing in her dreams.

"Wife, are you okay?" Zhou Zhuo sat up straight and asked nervously.

"I'm fine." Lin Qingqing comforted Zhou Zhuo, lifted the torn quilt from his body, and said, "Help me down, I'll see how Mom is."

"Okay, wife."

Zhou Zhuo helped Lin Qingqing up obediently, and he was so cautious as if he was protecting a rare treasure.

Zhou Yuan was so angry that her eyes turned red. How could her useless brother be so obsessed with women? Pah! She couldn't stand it anymore. She even ignored her mother and slammed the door and left!

Lin Qingqing squatted down and quickly pinched Xue Guixiang's philtrum with her thumb. She had received first aid training in her previous life and knew that Xue Guixiang was suffering from a typical case of anger. Although her life was not in danger, it should not be delayed.

There is no pharmacy in Zhoujiazhuang, so people in this village have to go to the neighboring village to see a doctor. If they go to the neighboring village to see a doctor now, I am afraid the medicine will be gone by then.

Fortunately, Xue Guixiang was not seriously injured. After Lin Qingqing pinched her for a while, she woke up with a cry of "ouch".

Xue Guixiang held Lin Qingqing's hand with tears in her eyes: "Qingqing, Zhou Zhuo's father passed away early, and Xiaoyuan was spoiled by me. Don't bother with her. When she comes back, I will definitely discipline her."

"Mom, Zhou Yuan is young, how can I be like her?"

Lin Qingqing agreed with her mouth, but she was thinking in her heart, why should she have to endure the anger of her evil sister-in-law? One day she would make Zhou Yuanzhi obey her completely!

For dinner, Xue Guixiang made cornmeal pancakes. It was 1980, and most farmers ate white flour.

But there are still some extremely poor families who still eat steamed buns made with a mixture of white and yellow flour. The so-called white and yellow mixture is steamed buns made by mixing white flour and corn flour together. The taste is worse than steamed corn bread, but not as good as that made with pure white flour.

The Zhou family is an extremely poor family. How good can their life be for a widow raising two children?

Fortunately, Zhou Zhuo's academic performance is very good. No matter how hard it is, as long as her son can go to college, Xue Guixiang thinks it is worth it. But just when she thought the hard days were about to end, something big happened at home!

The night before the exam, Zhou Zhuo became mentally ill due to excessive stress. He actually forgot all the knowledge he had learned and naturally failed the exam!

Not only that, he even forgot what happened in the past. He is not stupid, just mentally retarded, and his IQ is about the same as that of a seven or eight-year-old child.

They were already poor, and now things were even worse. With their only hope gone, Xue Guixiang felt like the sky was falling!

In order to treat Zhou Zhuo's illness, she sold all the donkeys in her family, but Zhou Zhuo's illness showed no signs of improvement. When she couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, Xue Guixiang often sighed with tears in her eyes.
