Chapter 52
The young Shen Yubai didn't understand, but he and everyone outside the light curtain could see it clearly.
What was in Shen Yuexi's bowl wasn't chicken soup at all, just a bowl of water.
The weather was getting colder and colder, and Shen Yuexi couldn't find anything to eat. The jewelry she left behind was limited, and after deducting the cost of buying medicine, she couldn't sustain herself throughout the harsh winter.
The monk who claimed to have seen all kinds of things in the world couldn't help but feel sorry for Shen Yuexi's sacrifice after seeing this scene.
What makes them even sadder is that they can only watch helplessly but can do nothing.
Everyone knows what has happened in the past and cannot be changed.
Soon, Shen Yuexi spent all her money despite frugality.
Shen Yuexi didn't tell Shen Yubai about this. She went to the surrounding towns to endure hunger and cold every day, doing some hard work for rich people, feeding pigs, picking manure... As long as she could get a bite to eat, Shen Yuexi was willing to do it. .
Sometimes Shen Yuexi would meet kind-hearted people who would give her a little more money.
Even some trivial gifts would make Shen Yuexi happy for a long time.
It's just that the New Year is approaching, and Shen Yuexi has less work to do, so everyone is more willing to spend money to stock up on food for the New Year.
Seeing that she was desperate, on the way out of a small town, a carriage suddenly stopped in front of Shen Yuexi, blocking her way.
On the carriage, a middle-aged man stepped down.
"Master, do you need help?"
Shen Yuexi's gloomy eyes lit up, "I can do a lot of things, and the reward doesn't need to be much. I guarantee you will be satisfied."
She marketed herself hard.
Shen Yubai, who was outside the light curtain, also recognized this middle-aged man.
He was seriously ill at that time, and this man came to visit him and sent him a lot of supplements.
It can be said that they were able to survive this cold winter safely, thanks to this person's generous donation.
Shen Yubai's mood finally rose a little. The previous scene made him feel depressed, and he felt ashamed of everything he had done to Shen Yuexi.
The appearance of the middle-aged man should make Shen Yuexi feel more relaxed... and his guilt could also be reduced a little.
After meeting the middle-aged man, Shen Yuexi was invited to sit in the carriage.
There was a heater in the carriage. Shen Yuexi coveted the warmth in the carriage for a while and actively asked the middle-aged man what he needed to do.
The middle-aged man's face hidden under the thick scarf was clear, "I can give you a lot, money, food, clothing, and supplies. I only have one request."
For some reason, Shen Yuexi felt a familiar smell of greed in the other party.
But thinking of the sick Shen Yubai, she suppressed her uneasiness and asked, "What's the request?"
"Your blood."
These three words made Shen Yuexi's face change drastically, and she recalled the painful memory of the past.
This is a plan for today...
"How much can you give me?"
The middle-aged man took out a piece of silver and threw it into Shen Yuexi's hand, "Just treat it as a meeting gift."
It turns out that this person is a trafficker who specializes in looking for virgin blood for those dignitaries.
Those noble people gave him more, so he was generous in his dealings, even more than the previous dealer gave him.
Shen Yuexi agreed to the middle-aged man's request without thinking for too long.
She immediately cut her wrist and asked the middle-aged man to take a large bowl of blood.
Shen Yuexi's cheerfulness made the man very satisfied and he gave her a lot of supplements.
Shen Yuexi returned home with a full load. After returning, she stewed the supplements and chicken soup given by the man and gave them to Shen Yubai to drink.
She just ate some cheap steamed buns to satisfy her hunger.Outside the light curtain, silence spread and the atmosphere was oppressive.
Shen Yubai never thought that what he thought was a "generous donation" turned out to be obtained by selling Shen Yuexi's blood.
And he was enjoying all this with peace of mind, not noticing that Shen Yuexi's face was abnormally pale after she came back.
In the end, all of this was attributed to Shen Yuerong, completely ignoring Shen Yuexi's sacrifice.
Shen Yubai's breathing became heavier unconsciously, and Shen Yubai felt like his body was being pressed down by a mountain. Breathing became extremely difficult, and several times he felt like he was suffocating due to difficulty breathing.
"Brother Shen, did you really not realize at that time that this Shen Yuerong was not that Shen Yuerong?"
Some people couldn't bear their curiosity and couldn't help asking soul questions.
From their perspective, Shen Yuexi's disguise as "Shen Yuerong" was full of loopholes.
Because Shen Yuerong could not be as sensible as Shen Yuexi, Shen Yubai should have noticed something was wrong.
Shen Yubai was speechless, and his expression became complicated and difficult to distinguish.
To say that there is no doubt would be a lie.
But he was seriously ill at that time, weak and sometimes not even conscious.
What's more, he hates Shen Yuexi so much and has such a bad impression, how can he possibly regard his sister "Yue Rong" who takes good care of him as Shen Yuexi?
Shen Yubai's silence made the man feel bored. He shrugged and turned around to continue looking at the light screen.
After that, Shen Yuexi would look for middle-aged men every now and then.
In the beginning, the man remained generous as usual and gave some supplements along with the money so that Shen Yuexi could continue to supply him with virgin blood.
After a few times, the man found that Shen Yuexi was getting weaker and weaker, and the blood he could get was getting less and less.
The man's tone was cold: "If you continue like this, don't even think about getting a penny from me."
Shen Yuexi responded, so when she made soup for Shen Yubai, she would also drink a small bowl.
The long, harsh winter is finally coming to an end, and the warm sunshine shines on the cold skin, making it warm and comfortable.
Because she had been selling blood one after another and could not replenish her nutrition in time, when Shen Yuexi went to see the middle-aged man again, he coldly rejected her.
When Shen Yuexi can bring benefits to him, any attitude will do.
When the benefits are drained, only ruthlessness and ruthlessness remain.
This is human nature.
It was clearly a rare sunny day, but Shen Yuexi felt that it was even colder and biting than the heavy snowfall.
Seeing this scene, all the monks became anxious, and their eyes unconsciously revealed worry.
Some people even lamented that they could not lend a helping hand to Shen Yuexi even though they had money, and they lamented over this.
Shen Yubai was also confused about this. He didn't know what happened next or how to get through this difficulty.
For a moment, everyone acted even more anxious than Shen Yuexi, the person involved.
"Hurry up, if you go late, you might be gone!"
"Are you really going to give money to beggars like us? Is something happy happening?"
"I heard that a wealthy businessman in this town resold the house. The new owner is also a wealthy owner. He has been interested in the house for a long time and finally bought it. To celebrate, he gave money and food to the beggars in the city!"
"What, there is such a good thing, so what nonsense are you talking about? Go quickly, we won't be able to share in it if it's too late!"
Beggars all over the city appeared in great numbers, and the scene was quite spectacular for a while.
Shen Yuexi learned the news when she was preparing to leave the city.
