She couldn't even remember what year it was.
I only remember that winter day was extremely cold. She was on her period and was staying at home, her whole body frozen. But her brother insisted on eating fish.
The family hadn't had meat for a long time. When her mother heard this, she felt sorry for Lin Jiagui and forced her to go out to the river to catch fish.
At that time, she listened to her mother the most. She never dared and would not disobey what her mother said. She dragged her tired body and went out in the cold.
When they arrived at the river, the wind was biting cold. Her clothes were not thick to begin with, and her hands and feet were frozen. The river bank was wet, and after a cold night, it was frozen.
Although she was very careful, her hands and feet were so frozen that they were not flexible. She was also weak due to her menstrual period and her foot slipped. Not only did she not catch the fish, but she also slipped into the river.
Although she couldn't remember what year it was, she would always remember the moment when the freezing cold river water drowned her.
She could swim, but when she suddenly fell into the river and the water was icy cold, her feet began to cramp. She could not do anything and could only sink into the water like a weight.
She struggled hard but couldn't even utter a word for help, and was drowned by the river water that smelled of fish and blood.
She knew that the smell of blood came from herself.
This day was the day when she had the most blood.
She thought she was going to die here, but unexpectedly, someone grabbed her and dragged her to the shore.
She didn't see clearly who came to rescue her. She vaguely heard him saying something loudly, but she didn't understand a word.
The state of having just struggled from the brink of death, the whole person was confused, and even the sounds in his ears seemed to be separated by clouds, very far away.
Rescue was difficult in such weather conditions, and she was wearing so many clothes. It must have taken a lot of effort for the man to drag her, and she herself had cramps in her legs and could not control her body at all, and kept sinking.
Keep sinking and keep choking on water.
She felt like she had been frozen into a large block of ice. Her body, consciousness, and perception gradually became numb and stiff, and finally, she lost consciousness.
When she woke up again, she was already at home.
In her own bed, her second sister sat beside her, sobbing quietly.
She moved and felt a splitting headache.
"Sister, you finally woke up." The second sister's voice was very soft and crying.
She learned from her second sister that she was found by two aunts in the village. At that time, she was lying on the ground, covered with a large men's cotton jacket. The two aunts carried her back and changed her clothes. Her lower body was covered in blood. Later, she developed a high fever.
In other words, after she fell into the river, a man must have saved her and covered her with his clothes, but the man left and the two aunts carried her back.
Lin Qingping was dazed from fever. She heard her second sister passing by and her mother cursing outside.
"What a money-loser! He couldn't even catch a fish, and he still wasted the money on medicine!"
"What's the point of giving birth to such a money-losing thing! Raising a useless thing for more than ten years only to eat! It's better to drown it in the river!"
"Why don't you just die? It costs so much money just to take medicine!"
As the second sister listened to her mother's scolding, her tears fell even more.
Lin Qingping's mouth was covered with blisters due to a fever, but her body was ice cold. She could only smile at her second sister, reach out her hand, hold her hand, and ask her not to cry.
That illness and that menstrual period were truly one of the coldest moments in her life.
Her thin quilt did not provide any warmth at all. At night, her second sister huddled together with her and used her body to keep her warm.
Oh, why at night? Because even if she fell down, her mother would still order her second sister to work during the day, and there was endless work to do.
At that time, my second sister was only a small person...
And that time my menstrual period lasted for a full half month.
At that time, she was ignorant and didn't know how important this was, and she didn't dare to tell her mother. She just let her period come and go as it pleased. For many years afterwards, her menstruation was not very regular. She didn't know if it was related to this time. She had never been married or had children in her previous life. Although she had sought treatment from Chinese medicine, she herself didn't know whether she could have children or not.
In this life, she and Gu Juncheng have been deliberately taking measures not to get pregnant, but maybe she really can't?
She never knew who her savior was.
Apart from the fact that he was a man and had a brand new thick cotton jacket, no other information was known.
She actually tried to look for it later, but after asking many people, she came up with no results.
The thick cotton jacket, the only clue, was also taken apart by her mother, who made a new jacket and a pair of new cotton trousers for Lin Jiagui.
When faced with her questioning, her mother said: What's the matter? If I throw it on you, it's yours. Why do you care about what I do with your things? Are you the mother or am I the mother? If you want to take the cotton-padded jacket back, you have to spit out the food you have eaten for the past ten years and give it back to me first!
In the end, the search for the savior came to nothing.
So it’s you…
Gu Juncheng!
But, don’t you forget it?
Haha, or, you should say, this happened before you married me, so you remember it?
Lin Qingping stared at the figure in front of him and sneered in his heart.
Gu Juncheng, you can do it!
In the open space in front of the hotel, Wu Axiu was still pulling Gu Juncheng to make a scene, yelling, "How can you not give me pension money? Did I give you my daughter for nothing? You have to provide for my old age! Otherwise, you have to ask Lin Qingping to come out! Ask her to provide for my old age! If you don't ask, then you have to give me pension money!"
