Qiu Xiaohuan pulled a stool with a sour face and sat down, stretching her hands forward.
She wanted to appear more imposing, but the action of stretching out both hands did not make her look imposing at all.
Tian Cai lowered his eyes and took a look. The dirty white and tender palms were covered with blisters of various sizes. The blisters at the base of the right hand were the largest and had been worn out. Wow, the little hands were so tender.
Tian Cai pointed a finger at the wooden basin under the eaves and said, "Go wash your hands first."
Qiu Xiaohuan raised her hands and looked at her in disbelief. "My hands are like this, and you want me to wash them? Do you have any medical knowledge? What if I get infected?"
"Are you going to bandage the medicine with a hand full of dirt?" Tian Cai asked back.
Qiu Xiaohuan stopped talking and went to wash her hands with a sullen face. She could still hear the sound of her breathing while washing. Tian Cai got up, went into the house, took out the medicine box and put it in the yard.
After the weather warmed up, she spent most of her time in the yard. Without windows, the lighting in the house was really average, and it was brighter in the yard.
After Tian Cai watered the crabapple tree in the southeast corner of the yard with dew many times, it finally sprouted new buds in the spring. The villagers were amazed and said that trees of this age are spiritual. They said that Tian Cai was a blessed person because she could bring back old trees that had been dead for many years.
After Qiu Xiaohuan sat down again, Tian Cai took a piece of white cotton cloth to dry the water on her hands, and then specially found a largest sewing needle.
"What are you doing?!" Qiu Xiaohuan felt sick when she saw Tian Cai disinfecting the large sewing needle.
Tian Cai didn't say anything. He reached out and pulled her hand back. Before Qiu Xiaohuan could react, he pricked the blisters one by one and squeezed them clean. The pus dripped onto the ground, and then he used a homemade cotton swab dipped in white wine to disinfect it.
"Hiss~" Qiu Xiaohuan couldn't help but pull her hand back, but was grabbed by Tian Cai again and the poison was eliminated severely.
Qiu Xiaohuan was in so much pain that she almost cried, and she made a note of the fact that she had sent something to Yan Xudong.
The next morning, Tian Cai had breakfast and went out to work.
The dew produced by the bean sprouts in her hand now has a bit of a cleansing smell. As long as Tian Cai drinks a drop at night, there will be a layer of gray stuff attached to her body the next day. After washing it off, she will become a little whiter.
Tian Cai's body originally looked pretty good. She used to be too thin and looked bad. But after a winter of eating all kinds of white flour, rice, and meat, she has gained a lot of weight. In addition, her skin has become much whiter and tenderer, and now she is considered a little beauty.
However, Tian Cai didn't dare to continue drinking. It would be too obvious in the village, which was not a good thing.
Even though her fighting power was enough to protect herself, she didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble.
Their job that day was to plant corn. One person was responsible for digging the hole, and the other was responsible for planting the seeds and then covering the soil. This work required two people to work together.
Soon everyone found a partner, received the seeds and stood at the edge of the field.
"You've never planted it before, so I'll dig the hole this time and you just throw the corn seeds in and kick up the soil." Luo Xiuyan said.
Tian Cai found the rhythm in a short time. She had good aim and she was even more accurate at close distances. The two of them worked quickly and effectively, leaving the educated youth and villagers far behind.
At noon, they got off work and went back to eat. Tian Cai and Luo Xiuyan followed everyone back. They had time to rest at noon and had time to take a nap after lunch before going back to work at two o'clock in the afternoon.
The two men were talking as they walked towards the village. As soon as they entered the village, they saw many people heading south, saying that there was something exciting to watch. The people walking next to them also quickened their pace and walked over.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Luo Xiuyan, with a gossipy look on her face, pulled Tian Cai and ran over there, asking the people next to her that they could have dinner later, otherwise they would miss the fun.
"I don't know. Mrs. Chen said there was a commotion over there."
Tian Cai was dragged away by her helplessly. She didn't want to go at all. It would be better for her to go home early, wash up, eat and take a nap.
Not long after turning the corner, she heard a commotion. The people who were watching the excitement stopped and gradually gathered together. The closer Luo Xiuyan got, the more confused she felt. Isn't this her second uncle's house?
When she got closer, she found that the center of the excitement was indeed her second uncle Luo Xianglijia.
The two of them pushed through the crowd and came to the front. The one crying was Luo Juan, who was said to have married and moved to the town. At that moment, she was still wearing a red dress and kneeling on the ground, crying very sadly.
There were several unfamiliar men and women standing next to Luo Juan. Some of the men were wearing work clothes from the machinery factory. A middle-aged woman stood aside with her chin held high, and there was a short man behind her, shrinking timidly.
Uncle Luo had a sullen face and said nothing. Aunt Luo was not at home. Just before Tian Cai came back, she was still in the fields. She would probably be a little later than them.
From Luo Juan's cries and the words of those men and women, the onlookers understood what was going on. Tian Cai knew more and was able to figure out what had happened.
As she thought, Luo Juan and Aunt Luo were indeed cheated by her cousin.
The so-called workshop director of the machinery factory is named Zhang. He has a pair of twin boys at home. The eldest son is named Zhang Yuxi and the second son is Zhang Yulong.
The one who wants to propose marriage to Luo Juan is the eldest brother Zhang Yuxi.
Before, every time Luo Juan went to the county, everything she saw and heard about her blind date was actually her younger brother Zhang Yulong. Zhang Yuxi had never appeared in front of her.
The eldest son, Zhang Yuxi, was born with polio and rarely sees people. People who know the Zhang family know that he has two sons. The eldest son is not often seen, but the younger son also works in the factory and is quite valued.
The two brothers were old enough to get married, and at this time, the order was important. If the eldest brother didn't propose marriage, the second brother wouldn't be able to do so. Unfortunately, in the eldest brother's case, no girl with healthy limbs and a normal brain was willing to marry him, so they wanted to pay a high price to marry a rural wife.
The Zhang family didn't have many relatives in the countryside, so they spread the word and looked for an intermediary to make an introduction. There would definitely be benefits, and there would be some thoughtful people willing to send their daughter over.
As for how Luo Juan got pregnant, Tian Cai suspected that either her younger brother did it for her or took advantage of Luo Juan's unconsciousness. Now that they are married, the Zhang family dares to reveal their true colors.
It was only at this time that Luo Juan found out what the man she married looked like. Not only was he short and thin, but he was also obviously lame. He looked nothing like her tall and handsome brother-in-law.
Luo Juan's husband's family also saw that she was unwilling to swallow this loss. So, on the day of returning to her parents' home, it was only necessary for the new son-in-law to accompany her, but their whole family came together. It was because they were afraid that their son would be wronged.
The villagers were shocked when they understood what was going on.
