When it rains, it pours.
She had just received the three-day weakness buff when her period came to visit.
Ye Zhiyu was speechless. What was going on? She remembered that the original owner of this body wasn't around this time last month.
What do you mean? You're trying to take advantage of her illness to kill her, right?
Okay, okay.
Despite her resentment, she was now trapped in the tree hollow and could do nothing.
What's going on?
She figured that being weak for three days wouldn't stop her from going for a stroll in the mountains; otherwise, staying indoors for three days would be too stifling.
So I didn't ask for leave, and just strolled around, taking a few steps and then resting for a few more.
As soon as I arrived at the destination, I was struck by a sharp pain in my stomach, and my face turned deathly pale.
Lu Chen was startled and quickly stepped forward to help her, his eyes lingering on her pants.
Ye Zhiyu followed his gaze and froze the moment she saw the bloodstains. Her mind went blank. Why did her aunt come at this time?
She was wearing light-colored pants today, and the marks were very obvious.
Coming to her senses, she forgot about her stomachache and buried herself in Lu Chen's arms in shame and anger.
He kept shouting, "You're not allowed to look! You're not allowed to look!"
There was no other reason, just embarrassment, discomfort, and shame. Why was Lu Chen always there whenever something happened to her?
Waaaaah, so embarrassing!
Lu Chen's face was even redder than Ye Zhiyu's. He was already 24 years old and not someone who knew nothing.
From childhood to adulthood, his mother always had a few days each month when she was in a particularly bad mood, finding fault with everyone and scolding anyone she could get her hands on.
I would be very weak during those days, and I often saw my mother huddled in one place, looking very uncomfortable.
I was young then and didn't understand, so I asked my dad.
I remember Lu Weimin solemnly telling him, "Your mother has started her period. Ah Chen, you must remember that your mother has had a hard time because she had to give birth to you. So every month, there are a few days when your mother will be in great pain. If your father is busy and can't take care of your mother in the future, you and your older brother must remember to give her hot brown sugar water and not make her angry."
As he grew older, he gradually understood that this was a physiological phenomenon, but it was also the first time he had encountered this situation.
Seeing her pale face from the pain, Lu Chen felt a pang of heartache and gently coaxed her, "Okay, I won't look. Let me help you to another place, okay?"
Ye Zhiyu raised her head with some doubt, and seeing that he didn't seem to be laughing at her, she obediently stepped out of his arms.
But I still didn't dare to look up.
Lu Chen helped him to a tree hollow.
Ye Zhiyu listened intently, and suddenly heard the sound of clothes rubbing together.
She looked up curiously and saw Lu Chen unbuttoning his shirt.
Ye Zhiyu was stunned, her mind starting to wander uncontrollably. What was Lu Chen going to do?
Could it be that, as Wu Wenwen said, he really likes her?
But I can't like her now.
Just as her thoughts were wandering freely, a jacket was draped around her waist.
Lu Chen kept his promise and didn't look at her; his face felt like it was on fire.
She cleared her throat lightly. "I'll go get your things and clothes."
She was about to leave after saying that when Ye Zhiyu quickly called her back and handed her the key.
"These are the keys to my room and wardrobe."
Lu Chen looked up in shock, unable to believe that the person in front of him trusted him so much, but he couldn't care less about anything else at the moment, so he grabbed the keys and left.
Ye Zhiyu mainly thought that when she went to Lu Chen to get something, she would definitely get the old lady's. Nowadays, sanitary napkins are tied to the waist with a rope, or just paper pads are used. Some people who can't afford sanitary napkins will use a piece of rag as a pad.
She couldn't accept it, so she decided to take her own.
Thinking of Lu Chen, who was usually so composed, getting her sanitary napkins with an embarrassed expression on his face, Ye Zhiyu burst out laughing.
Lu Chen ran down the mountain at breakneck speed, and once the heat in his body dissipated, he breathed a sigh of relief.
When they arrived at the educated youth settlement, they didn't go through the main gate, but climbed over the wall to get in.
Upon entering Ye Zhiyu's room, I dared not look around and went straight to the wardrobe.
Unlock the cabinet, pull open the door, and you'll find a dazzling array of colorful clothes of all kinds. And these are just the ones hanging; there are many more lying on the floor below.
The dress he gave me was hanging there.
Lu Chen chose a pair of black overalls; it's better to be comfortable while you're feeling unwell.
Lu Chen found a bag with the words "sanitary napkins" printed on it in the corner. He took one, then took some paper and put it in another bag.
Just as she was about to leave, she froze, remembering that Ye Zhiyu's inner clothes also needed to be changed, otherwise the new clothes would get dirty again.
I reluctantly started rummaging through the drawers and found it in a small one.
He glanced at it once, then looked away, grabbed one at random, stuffed it into his bag, and fled.
She went home again. Tian Hongfang was feeding the chickens when she saw her son sneaking back, carrying some kind of bag.
Unable to hold back, she spoke up: "What are you doing? Sneaking into your own home like that, didn't you go up the mountain? What are you carrying?"
For the first time, Lu Chen was at a loss in front of his mother, his ears turning bright red, too embarrassed to speak.
Go to the kitchen and boil water yourself.
She came out again a moment later, her voice a little hoarse: "Mom, can you get me some brown sugar?"
The Lu family's possessions are all openly displayed; there's no such thing as hiding anything.
Any good food was shared on the spot, and if something needed to be saved as a gift, we would let them know in advance and Tian Hongfang would keep it.
Brown sugar is a precious commodity, and it's not something we use regularly, so Tian Hongfang kept it in the house.
She looked at her son suspiciously, not quite understanding for a moment, and asked, "What do you need that for?"
Lu Chen explained in a low voice, "She's on her period, so I went to deliver some things to her. I wanted to bring her some brown sugar water as well."
He didn't have to say anything, but he was afraid that he didn't know everything and that she would be wronged.
This left Tian Hongfang speechless. No matter how close she was to her son, discussing this topic was still awkward.
He coughed a few times as if to cover up his discomfort, then feigned composure: "Wait."
I took out the brown sugar and handed it to him, then thought for a moment and followed him inside.
"Put some sliced ginger in; it works better than just brown sugar water."
"Remember, don't let her touch cold water, don't make her angry, and if she gets angry, you have to bear with it."
Tian Hongfang kept talking, afraid that her son would never let anyone suffer any injustice.
Lu Chen listened attentively the whole time.
After cooking, I took the food and returned to the mountain as quickly as possible.
"You even brought me brown sugar water?"
Ye Zhiyu saw it as if she had seen a savior, and wanted to take a sip as soon as she opened it.
The smell of ginger was the culprit that deterred me.
"Why did you put ginger in it?" He looked like he wanted to drink it but couldn't bring himself to do it.
Lu Chen could only coax her, "My mother said that adding ginger will make it more effective. Doesn't your stomach hurt? Drink it while it's hot."
After much hesitation, she drank it with a sense of resignation.
Once her body warmed up, Ye Zhiyu began to change her clothes.
When she saw her own underwear, her face turned bright red. Although she had wondered if he would take it, it was too embarrassing to actually see it.
I quickly got dressed, put my dirty clothes in a bag, and dawdled, reluctant to go out.
