Lu Shaoyu curled up on the old wooden bed, as if he was still in the womb, holding himself with both hands.
He originally had a worn-out thin quilt, which was covered by Lu Zhiyun just now. Now he only had a thin piece of clothing covering him, but it was of no use at all. He was still as cold as if he was in an ice kiln.
Mu Siyu dragged her tired body back and saw such a distressing scene. She first went to her room to get a quilt. In this family, her quilt was the thickest.
With this cover, Lu Shaoyu stopped shivering and his eyebrows relaxed.
There are three bedrooms in this house, Lu Zhiyun has a small bed alone, and the other room is occupied by Lu Yi, Lu Shaoyu and the frail Lu Xuan.
In fact, Lu Zhiyun should be allowed to live with the mother of the original owner. Not only because they are mother and daughter, but also because they are both women. But based on the character of the original owner, who can rest assured? Therefore, there is no other way, and this arrangement is the most reasonable.
Lu Yi's sick brother cannot take care of himself and needs someone to take care of him at all times. This is why Lu Yi has been working to earn money for these years, but his family is getting poorer day by day. No matter how much money he earns, he cannot make ends meet and is still too poor to eat.
.
Lu Shaoyu woke up from the pain.
A big hand grasped his ankle, and ice-cold liquid was applied to the wound. After a sting, the pain eased, and then there was a feeling of ice-cold comfort.
He didn't move, his little hand clutching the thick quilt tightly.
From the smell, it is not difficult to identify whose quilt this is. Besides that sloppy woman, whose quilt has a rancid smell?
"Why is he injured like this?" Mu Siyu complained while applying medicine to him. "Like a little wolf, he is so cruel to himself."
The wound must have been a scratch. There are also many unstable elements in the creek, such as some broken shells, which can easily scratch the skin if you walk there. There are also some broken stones, wood chips, etc., which are slightly
If you are not careful, it will pierce into the flesh.
He didn't say a word even though he was injured like this. From these details, it can be seen that it is not a good thing. I really don't know whether I should stay away or love him properly. This child is really scary and painful.
Lu Shaoyu fell into sleep in shame. Mu Siyu had not left yet, but he fell into a deep sleep with great relief, and even he himself did not notice this small change.
The crowing of cocks pierced the sky, and the industrious sun began a new day of service. It slowly rose into the sky, dispersing the cold darkness, allowing the entire world to be clearly reflected in front of people's eyes.
Lu Shaoyu woke up early as usual, thinking about the fish he saw yesterday when he went into the water, and planned to find another way to catch fish. There are many ways to catch fish. He is short, so it is not easy for him to implement it. The easiest
The best way is to use bamboo baskets.
He first went to the next room to see Lu Zhiyun. He saw that Lu Zhiyun's bed was empty. His expression changed drastically, and when he was about to go out to look for it, he heard voices coming from the kitchen.
"Let's keep the chickens! The hens can lay eggs, and the roosters can be sold for money." Lu Zhiyun's voice was sweet, but she didn't have the confidence to speak. She was like a cautious and testing hedgehog, waiting for something to go wrong before wrapping itself up, leaving only its thorns exposed.
Mu Siyu served sweet potato porridge and said to Lu Zhiyun next to her: "The doctor said you need to replenish your body. We can eat the rooster and sell the two hens."
"Why sell?" Lu Zhiyun became bolder when she saw that Mu Siyu didn't blame her for talking nonsense, but instead agreed.
"Because it was compensated by Mrs. Wang to us. After all, it is not our own chicken and it is not well-raised. If it disappears one day, it will be heartbreaking!" Mu Siyu said.
Seeing the harmony here, Lu Shaoyu didn't know whether to disturb him or not. At this time, Mu Siyu said to Lu Zhiyun: "Ask your brother to come over for dinner."
Lu Zhiyun turned around and smiled sweetly when she saw Lu Shaoyu: "Brother is here."
Lu Shaoyu took Lu Zhiyun's hand: "Come with me."
Lu Zhiyun didn't know why, and glanced at Mu Siyu, who looked indifferent and walked out with Lu Shaoyu.
Lu Shaoyu became even more unhappy when he saw this.
What did that woman do? Why was my sister bewitched by her after just one night? Have you forgotten all the things you did to her before? Wouldn't it be even more sad if one day her old habit breaks out and hurts her again?
"Are you feeling better?" Lu Shaoyu asked. "Do you want to see Dr. Zhu?"
"I feel much better." Lu Zhiyun blinked. "She boiled medicine for me just now. After I drank a bowl of medicine, my head no longer hurts, but there is still some pain here."
She pointed to her chest.
Lu Shaoyu's eyes turned red: "I will never let anyone bully you again."
He will not let go of anyone who bullies his brothers and sisters.
"Well, I believe in brother." Lu Zhiyun's eyes were full of trust.
"Why are you with her?" Lu Shaoyu glanced in the direction of the kitchen and lowered his voice and said, "Have you forgotten what she did to us? Don't believe her."
"Brother, she promised me that she won't bully us anymore." Lu Zhiyun pulled Lu Shaoyu's palm. "I think it's real this time. She wiped me, covered me with a quilt, and slept with me in her arms yesterday. She
After taking a shower, my body smells good, and it smells like my mother. Brother, do you think my mother is back?"
As he spoke, Lu Zhiyun's eyes turned red.
She is only five years old, and she really wants to be loved by her mother. Other parents will hug their children, but their father always has a cold face. Not only will her mother not hug them, she will beat them, scold them, and even starve them.
.She also really wants to have a mother who loves them!
Lu Shaoyu thought of the scene when Mu Siyu gave him medicine last night. At that time, she really seemed like a mother.
Is it true, as my sister said, that their 'mother' is back?
No! Don't be deceived by that woman. She just doesn't want them to complain to their father. Only my sister is stupid and was deceived by that woman.
"Sister, she is just afraid of dad and worried that we will file a lawsuit against him. You were seriously injured this time. If dad comes back and sees him, he will definitely punish her severely. It is enough that you have a brother. He will love you and take care of you. You don't need anything else.
Who is that, right?"
The light in Lu Zhiyun's eyes disappeared. She lowered her head and responded sadly: "I know, brother."
When Mu Siyu saw that the brother and sister were still not coming in after talking for a long time, Mu Siyu shouted outside: "Are you done? Come over for dinner when you're done. Lu Shaoyu, you have an injury on your leg. You are not allowed to go out today."
Lu Shaoyu frowned and pulled Lu Zhiyun in: "I want to go out."
Mu Siyu looked back at him: "You deliberately wanted to injure your leg more so that your father can settle the score with me when he comes back, right? I know you don't keep your words."
