Li Cuihua was most worried about Shen Nian's fertility problem, fearing that she would not be able to continue the family lineage of Lao Wang.
Doctor Tu said: "She has a delicate body and needs to be taken good care of. You have to treat her better so that it will be easier for her to have children."
Li Cuihua said: "I am not treating her well? Look at the daughter-in-law of the old Wu family, and then look at the old Li family. I am good enough for this little hoof. At least my hands and feet are sound."
After saying that, she also regretted a little. If she had known better, she shouldn't have coveted Shen Nian's beauty. Her body and bones were so weak that she couldn't carry it with her shoulders or lift it with her hands. It would probably be difficult to give birth to a child.
You should choose those rural girls with big butts, who can give birth to fat sons at a glance.
But now that money has been spent and people have bought it, Li Cuihua can only accept her fate and plan to find a way for Shen Nian to give Dabao a son first!
Li Cuihua asked the local doctor again for a folk prescription for giving birth, and then she sent him away and also chased away the villagers who were watching the fun.
When Shen Nian woke up, he was groggy. He smelled a bitter smell in his nose. When he looked closely, he saw that it was Dabao holding a bowl of dark medicine.
He muttered to Shen Nian: "Take medicine, and you will be fine after taking medicine."
Although Dabao had defended her, Shen Nian was very repelled by him and Li Cuihua. Seeing him bring an extra bowl of medicine with unknown ingredients, she overturned the bowl in shock and fear, "I won't take it!"
"Bang!" The bowl fell to the ground and fell into pieces, and all the medicine was spilled.
Li Cuihua came in when she heard the sound, saw that Shen Nian had knocked over the medicine, and slapped her on the face, "Pah!"
Li Cuihua yelled, "You little bitch, you are so shameless! How dare you break my bowl! I will beat you to death, believe it or not!"
Shen Nian was already weak, so she slapped him so hard that he fell on the bed. He was unable to resist, let alone resist, and could only look at her angrily.
"Mom, don't hit her!" Dabao protected Shen Nian again and refused to let Li Cuihua be rough with Shen Nian.
Li Cuihua was almost angered to death by her own son, "My son, do you know that you were treated as a donkey liver lung by her out of kindness? This bowl costs nothing, this medicine costs nothing? She just let her ruin it!"
Shen Nian raised his head and said, "I have money! As long as you let me go, I can give you any amount of money!"
Li Cuihua spat: "Bah! Don't think I don't know what you are thinking. If I let you go, you will definitely go down the mountain and call the police! Don't think I'm stupid!"
Shen Nian bit her lip tightly, her eyes full of stubbornness, and said decisively: "If you don't let me go, I will never be your reproductive tool!"
"I've betrayed you! You are a member of my Wang family in life, and a ghost of my Wang family in death. You want to die and I still don't agree!" Li Cuihua immediately cooked another bowl of medicine and tried to force Shen Nian to drink it.
Shen Nian didn't know what was in it, so he naturally refused to drink it. He struggled hard, but he was still fed more than half a bowl of bitter concoction.
But soon, she spit out the concoction in front of Li Cuihua and Dabao.
Li Cuihua vomited and vomited.
In the end, Shen Nian even vomited out bile, became weaker and sicker.
Li Cuihua had no choice but to call Doctor Tu over, but Doctor Tu was not in the village today. The one who came was his wife Zhou Fang, who also knew medical skills.
Zhou Fang looked at Shen Nian's weak and pale face and advised: "These are good medicines for you. Dabao still expects you to pass on the family lineage to their Wang family and won't harm you."
Shen Nian said with a white face and stubbornly: "Even if I die, I will not be their reproductive tool."
Zhou Fang sighed softly, "Why bother? It's better to die than live."
Shen Nian closed his eyes, "If you are here to persuade me, then there is no need to persuade me."
Zhou Fang said sincerely: "No matter when, life is the most important. As long as there is life, there is hope."
This sentence immediately stung Shen Nian.
She remembered what Qin Mo said to her - "Shen Nian, no matter what danger you encounter in the future, you must put your life first. Do you understand? Neither money nor chastity is as important as your life."
But she was really scared, so scared that she would become a handful of mud in this ravine and never go back.
She misses Qin Mo so much, misses his warm embrace and solid arms, misses his deep voice, misses his cool breath...
I really think about it.
Shen Nian couldn't help but shed tears.
Qin Mo, when will you come to save me?
I really can't hold on any longer...
Seeing her crying silently, Zhou Fang let out a long sigh and said, "Actually, I was kidnapped and trafficked just like you. At first, I refused to obey and tried desperately to escape... But how many people are here? A whole village has been buying wives for generations, and everyone will help each other take care of these bought wives, so there is no chance to escape. Moreover, once the escape is discovered, it can range from a severe beating to a severe disability. You must have seen this too. What happened to those women."
Shen Nian opened his red eyes and looked at her, "So you just accept your fate?"
A hint of bitterness flashed in Zhou Fang's eyes, even more bitter than Huang Lian, "I don't want to accept my fate, but what can I do? I used to be a nurse who saved lives and healed the wounded, but now I am just a woman trapped in the mountains. ."
"You have studied hard for many years to become an angel in white. Are you really willing to be buried in this mountain? You should have a better life." Shen Nian looked at her steadily and said word by word, "We Why don’t we figure out a way to escape together?”
Zhou Fang's pupils suddenly tightened, and she bit her lips unconsciously. The seed called freedom that had been suppressed in her heart burst out again.
…
No one knew what Zhou Fang said to Shen Nian. They only knew that after Zhou Fang left, Shen Nian no longer resisted taking medicine and took care of his health obediently.
Seeing this, Li Cuihua was a little satisfied. The next day, Zhou Fang came to see Shen Nian again in the name of seeing a doctor.
Shen Nian looked at her calmly, "Have you thought about it?"
Zhou Fang pursed her lips and asked, "How sure are you that you can escape?"
Shen thought: "Thirty percent."
Zhou Fang said: "It's too risky."
Shen Nian said calmly: "If you don't give it a try, you won't even have a 10% chance."
Zhou Fang was silent for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and said to Shen Nian: "I believe you, then I'll take a gamble. This is the snake grass you want."
"Okay, thank you." Shen Nian put away the snake plant, a trace of determination flashed in her eyes, she must escape from here!
After Zhou Fang left, Shen Nian crushed up the snake plant and applied it on her body. She had been allergic to the snake plant since she was a child, and soon her whole body, including her face, was covered in red rashes. They were densely packed and looked very scary. .
Li Cuihua was shocked when she saw it. She slapped her chest and said, "Oh my God! What's going on? Dabao, go and call the doctor!"
