from widow to dame

Chapter 6

Didn't Wang Qilang keep this and the severed finger in his mouth?
As soon as this thought came to her mind, Lin Yuyan trembled all over, with the urge to throw him out the door immediately.

However, she is a kind person after all, and Wang Qilang is only a child of six or seven years old, so she really can't be cruel.

Sighing secretly, Lin Yuyan began to examine his injuries carefully, and saw that Wang Qilang's breathing gradually calmed down after spitting out his middle finger, but he was still in a coma.Lin Yuyan took off the clothes that could only be called "rotten cloth strips" for him, and saw that the skinny little body was covered with dense scars, layer upon layer, some new and some old, just looking at it It can make people feel how cruelly abused this child has been.

Lin Yuyan took a deep breath, and looked carefully again, and saw a huge, thick cyan footprint on the chest.She could even imagine that a person had raised his leg mercilessly and kicked the child's chest.

This is to want his life!He's just a child, how could he do such a thing!
At this moment, Lin Yuyan no longer had any fear in her heart, only pity for a child struggling on the verge of death.

She is not a doctor and does not have medicinal materials, so it is impossible to cure this child, but Lin Yuyan has a place where there is a pool, a very magical pool.

Lin Yuyan glanced at Wang Qilang who was still unconscious, stretched out her hand, and licked it lightly with the tip of her tongue.

A moment later, a bucket of warm water smelling like sulfur was placed on the ground.

Lin Yuyan tore off a piece of her clothes, soaked it in warm water, and then began to wipe the child's body. She wiped it over and over again, changing bucket after bucket of hot spring water. She didn't stop until midnight, obviously , the child looks much better, at least most of the bruises on his body have disappeared.

As for whether the internal organs in his body were also seriously damaged, Lin Yuyan didn't know.

After using up the hot spring water, Lin Yuyan ladled out some cold spring water, and he drank it lightly. Seeing that the expression on his face was no longer that distorted, she was slightly relieved.She glanced at the sky, then stepped into the plum blossom space, jumped into the pool, and closed her eyes.

When he came out again, he was exhausted.

Lin Yuyan pondered for a while, then raised her feet and walked to the firewood pile. This room was originally a firewood house, so the firewood pile was so high that it almost reached the roof. Wang Qilang is a child, so hiding in it should not be people found out.After all, he is the one who cooks and cooks now, and Pi and the others will not come here easily.

When the sky was bright, Lin Yuyan had already made all the preparations. She dug out a hole behind the firewood pile, stuffed Wang Qilang, who was still unconscious, into it, and wiped away the blood dripping on the ground with her foot.

After thinking about it, she entered the space again and took out a handful of jujubes.

This is the wild dates she picked up when she went to the mountain to cut Shaoteng last time. She planted some in the space, and now they have grown into small saplings, while the rest have been soaked in cold spring water. These days, it has long become plump and crisp, and it is fragrant in the mouth.Lin Yuyan took out a handful and put it next to Wang Qilang's head. If the child woke up, he could also pad his stomach. After doing this, she carefully closed the door and started the day's work.

Due to the pain of losing five taels of silver, Mrs. Pi's complexion was so dark today, anyone who was caught scolding anyone, even Mrs. Tian had a good meal and was forced to cook. After Lin Yuyan fed the pigs, She carried the bucket to the backyard to water. Behind the five rooms of the Wang family, there was a field surrounded by a fence, and some seasonal vegetables were planted. Lin Yuyan carried one bucket after another, and the ground was not fully watered until noon.Tian's cooking skills are really unflattering. Even Lin Yuyan, who is still a novice, is better than her. Regardless of the taste, at least Lin Yuyan's cooking is clean, while Tian's cooking is purely foolish. , pitch-black, just looking at it.

No, some people are not satisfied.

"Is this for people to eat?" Wang Wuniang slapped the chopsticks, and cursed with her eyebrows upside down, "Pigs won't eat this kind of thing."

"What are you talking about!" Mrs. Tian immediately retorted after hearing this: "I think my cooking is not delicious, why don't you do it yourself, you know that you are lazy in your room all day long, so you can't complain so much. If someone comes to say hello, I don't think you will be able to get married in this lifetime."

Being stabbed in the heart, how could Wang Wuniang spare her, immediately picked up the rice bowl in front of her, and poured all the bowl of corn noodle porridge on Tian's smug face.

"Ah——" Tian screamed from being burned, stood up and scratched Wang Wuniang across the table.

In an instant, the whole kitchen was in chaos.Dishes, chopsticks, and chopsticks fell down.

On the side, Dipi hissed in distress, stepped forward a few steps, and it was Tian's turn to slap, and shouted: "You prodigal old woman, what are you doing, I beat you to death."

Tian's mouth was wheeled on the ground, and she didn't get up, but started to wail: "I can't live through this day, I am a meritorious person who gave birth to the eldest grandson of your family, you are so right My conscience was struck by lightning! Bao'er, this family can't accommodate us, so Niang Ming'er will take you back to your grandmother's house and stop being angry here!"

Mrs. Pi didn't care about her threat, and immediately started yelling and cursing again, adding fuel to the flames from Wang Wuniang and Wang Liulang, and the whole kitchen became even more chaotic.Taking advantage of no one's attention, Lin Yuyan secretly hid a few cornbread in her sleeves, and stopped watching the farce, turned and went back to the room.

After going around to the firewood pile, who would have thought that Wang Qilang was gone, and there were only a few date pits scattered inside.

Lin Yuyan raised her eyebrows, the child is awake?
In the afternoon, she was sitting in the yard washing clothes when Mrs. Pi called her into the house.This was the first time Lin Yuyan entered Pi's room, and she saw that the room was fairly tidy, at least there was no shortage of things for living at home, which was much better than Lin Yuyan who only had a shabby quilt.

When she came, Mrs. Pi and Wang Wuniang were sitting on the kang chatting.

"I called you here to tell you something." Mrs. Pi raised her eyelids and said, "Tomorrow I'm going to the town to deliver something to Erlang, and I'll sell the one hundred eggs at home by the way, and it will be almost dark You won’t be able to come back, so you don’t need to bring us lunch.”

"Will Wu Niang and Liu Lang go too?" Lin Yuyan asked.

"Yeah!" Mrs. Pi nodded, "Take care of your home and don't run around."

"understood!"

Sure enough, the next morning, Mrs. Pi took Wang Wuniang and Wang Liulang out in a hurry.

Lin Yuyan did the housework as usual, and after delivering lunch to Wang Dalang in the field, she returned to her room. She took out the silver ingot weighing twelve taels from the space, put it on the ground, and held the ax He hit it hard until it was broken into seven or eight pieces, and then he stopped.Taking a small cloth to wrap up the broken silver, Lin Yuyan knew in her heart that she would definitely lose a lot in this way, but an exquisite silver ingot is too eye-catching and easy to be suspected, so it is better to divide it into broken silver and spend it easily.

After doing this, Lin Yuyan went out with her basket on her back. Lin Yuyan greeted any neighbors she met along the way very politely, regardless of whether they paid attention to her or not.After reaching Nanshan, Lin Yuyan began to cut rattan. She was already used to this job, so she was very fast.After half an hour, it was ready.Pi and the others were not at home, and Lin Yuyan was not in a hurry to go back, because last time she picked up some wild dates in the mountains, Lin Yuyan wanted to go to a deeper place to have a look, maybe she could meet some good things.

Spotting on a direction, Lin Yuyan slowly groped for it. After walking for a while, she found nothing, so she couldn't help but sat down under a tree to rest.

The huge sun in the sky was shining brightly on the earth, but the mountains and forests seemed very cool, occasionally there was the sound of cicadas and birds chirping, Lin Yuyan leaned against the tree trunk and slowly closed her eyes, unconsciously falling asleep .

After a short sleep, she opened her eyes, stretched comfortably, stealing half a day's leisure, it should be so.

"Suspicion? What is this?" Lin Yuyan stared at a chicken in front of her with wide eyes.

Do not!Literally a dead chicken.

It has yellow hair and is a little fat. Its limbs are tied with straw ropes, its belly is up, and its eyes are closed. It looks like it has just passed away.

Lin Yuyan frowned, stood up, and looked around.

She couldn't believe that the chicken tied itself up like this, and then rolled in front of her.

Who is it?Lin Yuyan thought for a long time, suddenly, as if she remembered something, her eyes widened slightly.

After a while, she decided to get rid of the chicken on the spot.Running to the side of the mountain stream, holding a scythe for mowing grass, Lin Yuyan disemboweled the chicken without hesitation. You must know that not long ago, she was a lady who would exclaim when she saw a bug, but now with her hands The poor hen was dismembered by the knife, and she didn't even change her face.

After packing up the chicken, Lin Yuyan built a fire again, directly put the washed and bleached chicken on the branches, and roasted it on the fire.But after a while, the smell of roast chicken wafted away, and Lin Yuyan couldn't even remember when was the last time she ate meat. Smelling the smell of meat, she swallowed saliva in a particularly hopeless way.

The roasted chicken was a bit mushy, but it was still fragrant. Lin Yuyan almost couldn't wait to eat it. After a while, she swallowed half of the chicken and smashed it with satisfaction. Lin Yuyan went to the stream again to put her face Wash it, then carefully wrap the remaining half with leaves and put it under the tree she just slept on.

After finishing these, she started to walk back with the bamboo basket on her back.

When Lin Yuyan's figure gradually disappeared on the trail down the mountain, a thin figure quickly ran under the tree. He picked up the half roasted chicken that was on the ground. some.
