She was too tired and moved very slowly. When she was adding firewood, the lard in the pot caught fire. She was really scared by the fire and tried to blow it out. As a result, the fire burned her hair and eyebrows, and a burnt smell came to her nose.
Zhao Ruxin's scream was so sharp that the neighbors heard it and were afraid to come out. When they entered the door, they saw a large iron pot on fire with thick smoke coming out, and they immediately scooped a bucket of water into it.
After the fire was out, I saw Zhao Ruxin's burnt hair. Ah, this...
A girl of this age, not only can’t she cook, she even burned herself. Fortunately, only her bangs and a little bit of her eyebrows were burned.
"How much oil did you put in to cook? How could you just leave the pan burning? Don't you know it's dangerous?"
Oh, how can a girl like this get married in the future? She is not good at anything, she has seen it all, she fell flat on her face just carrying a little bit of water. Waste can no longer be waste.
Zhao Ruxin stared blankly at the person who came, tears falling continuously.
She has no hair anymore, how is she going to get married? How to get engaged? She is doomed, she can't get married and will become an old spinster.
Woo woo woo…
Her face also hurts a little. I don’t know if it’s burned. Is she disfigured?
"Don't cry, it's just a little bit of hair on the front that was burned, it will be fine in a few days. I'm going to go, you take care of yourself."
I have a lot of things to do at home, so I don't have time to spend with her. No, where is her mother? A few days ago, I saw a woman working in this family's house.
After the neighbor left, Zhao Ruxin squatted down, hugged herself, and cried uncontrollably. How is she going to wait until my mother comes? She can’t stand it anymore!
Woo woo woo woo…
Zhao Dawen brought his son home. As soon as he entered the yard, he smelled a burning smell. Frightened, he rushed into the kitchen and saw his daughter sitting by the firewood pile.
"What's wrong with you? Is your house on fire? Is the meal ready? Is it burnt?"
Zhao Ruxin slowly raised her head, feeling aggrieved and helpless.
"Dad, please ask Mom to come. I can't do it. I really can't do it. Do you know how hard it is to fetch water from the well? Look at my hands, they are bleeding. And when I wanted to cook, the pot caught fire when I added a few more pieces of firewood. Dad, please ask Mom to come. I'm really going to die!"
Zhao Dawen couldn't bring himself to curse. He had once gone to the well to fetch water and knew how difficult it was. In fact, he admired Wang very much and forced her to do it.
But now, she is gone, and he doesn't know what to do? It is absolutely impossible for him to do it. Not only will he feel dizzy when he sees the deep well, but even if he doesn't feel dizzy, he doesn't have the strength to pull himself up.
"Jiaqiang, Jiadong, why don't you two go to the well to fetch water? Ruxin, go wash your face, clean the pot, and cook dinner." Looking at his daughter's burnt hair, "Hey, let me light the fire, okay?"
He has it so hard. After a hard day's work, he can't even have a hot meal when he comes home and still has to work. When will my family come back?
Zhao Ruxin felt relieved when she saw that her father didn't scold her.
"Dad, it's really not okay to be at home without a mother, what should I do?"
"Let's just wait it out. If it doesn't work, we can just buy some steamed buns outside. Your grandfather is not well, so Daddy really can't take her home. Do you understand?"
Zhao Ruxin was very depressed, her shoulders drooped. Why was this family so difficult? How did life become like this?
"Dad, we are here!"
After all, he is a young man. Even if he doesn't work, he is stronger than an old man and a little girl.
Zhao Dawen was overjoyed. He was worthy of being his son. He brought back a bucket of water in a short time. Not bad!
"Okay, okay, go fill the jar with water, and your sister and I will start cooking right away."
"Ai!"
The first time they carried water, they thought it was fun, and although their dad didn’t seem happy, they didn’t dare to provoke him.
Zhao Ruxin washed her face and got up to cook. How could she cook? She had burned the stove in the afternoon, and now she was even more afraid to cook. Just add half a pot of water, wash a bowl of brown rice and put it in to cook.
Forget about the rest, just eat it like this for now. She is in no mood now.
"Dad, is my face burned? Is all my hair gone? Am I bald?" She had just washed her face and felt a handful of ash and broken hair, and her heart sank.
He knew very well what his daughter's face represented. Zhao Dawen looked at her face carefully. "The face is fine, just a little red. The hair is fine too, except for the bangs in the front. They will come out after a while."
However, Zhao Dawen frowned tightly and said, "It seems that your eyebrows are also burned, and half of them are gone." He didn't know whether they could grow back.
No, it was just cooking. How did she manage to burn herself? If she does this a few more times, his family will have no choice but to collect her body.
idiot!
When Zhao Ruxin heard that half of her eyebrow was gone, she broke down and cried again. Eyebrows are so important. Her eyebrows, which are curved without any makeup, are the most beautiful. Now half of my penis is gone, how can I bend? She is too embarrassed to see anyone...
Seeing her crying for a long time, Zhao Dawen lost his patience and said, "Okay, stop crying. I estimate it will grow out in a few days. Just don't go out recently. It's not worth crying for a big thing."
I burned myself because of my own stupidity, who can I blame?
At night, the whole family had to make do with half-cooked brown rice porridge, washed up casually, and went to bed.
That night, Zhao Ruxin was so worried about her eyebrows that she kept stroking them and couldn't sleep for several nights.
Mrs. Wang in the old house was also having a hard time.
Doing housework was not enough, Mrs. Sun also forced her to work in the fields. No matter what, if she works a little more, she can hire one less worker and save a day's wages.
"I'll take care of the old man, you hurry up and go to the ground."
