Chapter 10 His Hand Injury
Seeing Cui Hejin coming back, Jiang Zhiluo felt relieved.
Mrs. Cui's heart also settled down.
She was on the road to exile, and she managed to survive because she was worried about her son.
His temper is getting colder and colder. I remember he was not like this before.
Now it seems that nothing can cause any emotional fluctuations in him, and his thoughts are becoming more and more profound, and even she, his mother, can't understand it.
Old Madam Cui stood up, washed her hands, and brought a bowl of ginger soup to Cui Hejin.
"Did you borrow this umbrella from Shopkeeper Feng at Linjiang Tower?"
"Um."
Mrs. Cui sighed, "Shopkeeper Feng is truly kind."
As she spoke, Old Madam Cui happily told Cui Hejin, "Zhiluo braved the rain today and went to the mountains, and happened to find some food."
"It's leek. It's a vegetable. Zhiluo said it's delicious when used to make dumplings or buns."
"Zhiluo is really good and knows more. Otherwise, we would have to eat wild vegetables tonight."
Mrs. Cui couldn't stand eating wild vegetables every meal.
Cui Hejin sat down and drank a few sips of ginger soup. Hearing his mother say this, he raised his eyelids slightly and glanced at Jiang Zhiluo. His eyes were charming and thoughtful.
When Jiang Zhiluo saw Cui Hejin, she always felt that his eyes were captivating.
The momentum is so strong that it is a bit overwhelming.
Jiang Zhiluo could only whisper, "I was just lucky. I found some vegetables on the mountain."
Cui Hejin quickly looked away, hummed, and said nothing more, nor asked any more questions.
Jiang Zhiluo discovered that even when drinking a bowl of ginger soup, Cui Hejin sat there with an elegant aura all over his body, neither hurried nor slow, and very steady.
Cui Hejin finished a bowl of ginger soup, then slowly took out a small purse and whispered, "Today I sold a total of 130 coins and bought 10 kilograms of coarse noodles, which should last me a while."
"Here are fifty coins. Take them first, mother."
Only then did Mrs. Cui notice that there was a bag of grain in the backpack next to Cui Hejin.
When she heard this, she was shocked, "Are you copying books again?"
That basket of eggs could not be sold for so many copper coins. Cui Hejin must have copied some books and sent them to a bookstore to sell for some money.
"Do you know that if your hand continues like this, you won't be able to write anymore? The doctor said that your hand..."
When she said this, Mrs. Cui's voice became a little hoarse and she was unable to continue.
Cui Hejin said calmly: "Mom, don't worry, I'm fine."
"What do you mean it's okay? What if your hands can no longer hold a pen?"
Mrs. Cui rarely spoke so quickly.
She looked at her son, feeling very guilty. "It's all because of my uselessness. If I had a way, you wouldn't have to..."
Mrs. Cui couldn't control her emotions for a moment.
Cui Hejin looked at his mother and sighed, "Mom, we have to survive first before we can think about other things."
"Don't blame yourself, Mom. You've done very well."
Cui Hejin's voice was unusually soft when he was comforting his mother.
Jiang Zhiluo's heart beat faster and she was a little scared. What happened to Cui Hejin's hand?
What does it mean to be unable to pick up a pen to write?
And the situation here is even poorer than she thought.
Maybe you really need to make money urgently to buy food, otherwise you will really starve.
I don’t know how long these three people can eat these ten kilograms of coarse grains.
Jiang Zhiluo was afraid that Mrs. Cui would feel bad and it would be bad for her health, so she could only divert her attention and said, "Mom, I've prepared everything. Let's cook first. I might need you to help me light the fire."
As soon as Jiang Zhiluo spoke, Mrs. Cui remembered that Zhiluo was still beside her and she had just lost control a little.
Old Madam Cui quickly held back the tears in her eyes, adjusted her mood, took the white flour buns out of the pot, cleaned the pot, and helped to light the fire.
Jiang Zhiluo started to stir-fry leeks and eggs.
