"Ouch, why are there so many blood blisters?"
Before Shen Chuning could answer, Lin Shulan leaned closer to take a look at Shen Chuning's palm and exclaimed first.
Shen Chu Ning smiled awkwardly, "Mom, I'm fine. I just want to turn this land over and grow some vegetables, but I... don't know how to do it."
In the past, she was spoiled by her father and brothers and had never been prepared. As a country girl, she had no problem with farming.
Lin Shulan saw this today and she was quite embarrassed.
"Ouch! Girl, if you can't do it, don't do it." Lin Shulan exclaimed again in distress, snatched the hoe from Shen Chuning's hand and leaned against the wall on the side.
"Come, let me pick the blood blister on your palm and bandage it for you."
As Lin Shulan spoke, she hurriedly went to the citrus tree outside the yard to break off a thorn, pulled Shen Chuning into the house, and pressed her to sit on a stool.
When she pulled Shen Chu Ning's hand to prick the blood blister, she did not forget to remind her: "Ning Ning, if you are afraid, just close your eyes. Mother will use this citrus thorn to prick it for you, and it will be fine in a while.
Using this will not cause infection or suppuration. ”
Shen Chu Ning was really scared.
She had been afraid of pain since she was a child, and couldn't help but close her eyes, shrink her neck, and turn her face away.
"alright."
But before she felt any pain, she heard Lin Shulan say it was okay.
When she opened her eyes, she saw Lin Shulan holding a roll of gauze to wrap her hands.
"This gauze was bought by the third brother from the city. I scolded him for wasting money at that time. Now it seems fortunate that he bought these things, otherwise, your hand would be in trouble."
Shen Chu Ning smiled somewhat awkwardly, feeling warm in her heart.
She guessed that when Lin Shulan got blisters on her hands from working, she might not be willing to wrap them with gauze.
When she was at home, her father and brothers would often get blisters on their hands during the spring ploughing season. She knew that they usually dealt with it by pricking them with the thorns of a citrus tree and then leaving them alone, and the blisters would form after a day or two.
"Ningning, you can't cook for yourself with your hands like this. Let's go, go to mom's place to eat." Lin Shulan pulled Shen Chuning and went to go next door.
Shen Chuning looked at Lin Shulan, but couldn't help but reddening her eyes, with two bags of moving hot tears in her eyes.
Lin Shulan was shocked when she saw her daughter-in-law like this, and asked hurriedly: "Ningning, what's wrong? What happened? Why are you crying?"
The tears in Shen Chu Ning's eyes couldn't help but burst out.
She hugged Lin Shulan tightly and said with tears in her voice: "Mom, thank you, you are so good to me, wuwuwu..."
"I have been without a mother since I was a child, and I don't have a very good reputation in the village. Everyone says that I am lazy and greedy. I don't have the fate of a lady and I have the disease of a lady. You don't despise me and are so good to me, wuwuwu..."
Lin Shulan gave birth to three sons and no daughters.
When I was young, I also wanted a sweet and soft little girl, but unfortunately I never got my wish.
Later, when her son got married, she wanted to treat her daughter-in-law as her own daughter, but the old lady was a thoughtful person and it was impossible for her to open up to her.
Although the second brother's family is carefree, there is still a layer of distance between them and her.
Shen Chu Ning threw herself into her arms and cried, which made her cry so much that her motherly love overflowed and her heart melted.
She patted Shen Chuning's back gently and coaxed, "Okay, okay, don't cry, girl. From now on, mother is your real mother. Since you are married to the third brother, you are a member of our Zhou family. Mother will never let you suffer."
After that, she deliberately said fiercely: "If those gossipy women in the village gossip about you again, tell mother and I will scold them for you!"
Shen Chu Ning burst into laughter and said, "Thank you, mother."
Lin Shulan even wiped the tears from her little face and said, "Come on, go to mother's place. I'll make you some steamed eggs."
She wanted to cook meat for her old daughter-in-law, but there was no meat left at home, but there were still a few eggs.
"Mom, you go first, I'll pack up and be there soon." Shen Chuning also wiped her tears and said.
"Okay, then mom will go back and cook first."
As Lin Shulan said this, she walked into the yard and saw the land that Shen Chuning had dug up like a dog, and shouted again, "Ningning, stop digging this land. If you want to grow vegetables, wait a few days and your mother will ask your father to come and turn it over for you."
"Okay, mother. Thank you, mother." Shen Chuning poked his head out of the main room and gave Lin Shulan a sweet and soft smile.
Lin Shulan felt her heart soften in an instant.
She now understood why Shen Chuning's father and brothers doted on her so much. If she had such a sweet and soft little girl, she would not be willing to let her go to the fields to do farm work!
Shen Chu Ning thought that she couldn't eat for free when she went to her mother-in-law's house for dinner.
And there are six children next door, so she has to bring some sweet things to them.
She entered the space and took out a piece of pork belly weighing about one pound and put it at the bottom of the basket, and then put two pounds of rice and two pounds of flour.
On top were the fruit candies she bought at the supply and marketing cooperative, and the egg cake that Father Shen stuffed into her when she returned home today.
He carried it out of the yard and went next door.
It's just that maybe her tone was really not very good today.
As soon as I set out on the journey, I met Chen Ziyun, Wang Yumeng and Lu Qiaoqing who were returning to the educated youth site after work.
Shen Chu Ning didn't want to have anything to do with them.
After she had that dream, she thought that if she wanted to avoid ending up like in the dream, the best way would be to stay away from Chen Ziyun and Wang Yumeng.
She looked away, as if she didn't see the three of them, and walked into the Zhou family's yard with the basket.
Chen Ziyun followed her with his eyes until her figure disappeared, and a greedy and possessive light flashed in his eyes.
Wang Yumeng just stared at Shen Chuning's neck for a long time.
She was very sure that Shen Chuning was not wearing the koi jade pendant.
She couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
The jade pendant written in the book was a relic left to Shen Chuning by her mother. She never left it with her. Why is she suddenly not wearing it now?
Did she discover the secret of the jade pendant and hide it, or what?
She narrowed her eyes. She had to find out the whereabouts of the koi jade pendant as soon as possible. It was the most important golden finger in this book.
When Lu Qiaoqing saw that Chen Ziyun's eyes were almost glued to Shen Chuning, she felt sour in her heart.
I couldn't help but say, "Bah! Mengmeng, look at the way she twists her waist. Those who know her would think she is a revolutionary comrade of our working class and peasant class, while those who don't would think she is a whore in a feudal brothel!"
