342, Orion's Little Wife 1

"Do you want to drink the medicine first?" A timid voice sounded, and he mustered up the courage to say, "Liangzhong said, as long as you take good care of yourself and take the medicine on time, you will get better."

The person who spoke was petite and looked to be no more than fifteen or sixteen years old. He was wearing coarse linen clothes and had a slightly protruding belly. He clumsily brought a bowl of medicine, and the porcelain bowl he used had a chip.

When he walked in, he was submissive and had a timid look on his face.

Ji Huai was leaning on the head of the bed, with a dirt wall behind him. The room was in dilapidated condition, with a simple straw mat on his feet and a shabby quilt with several patches sewn on it.

His right leg was tied with a wooden board, and there was still bloodshot eyes in one place. The pain caused him to break out in cold sweat when he moved even a little bit. At this time, there was also a scratch on his face, which made him look even more ferocious.

Tang Xiuer saw his expression, her hand holding the bowl shook slightly, and she took a small step back. She was afraid that he would scold her, so she held it back, but her face was already pale.

"‌Me." Ji Huai raised his head and stretched his hands upward at the same time, his voice dry and hoarse.

Tang Xiuer endured her tensed nerves, walked over in small steps, and spoke in a low voice, "I just picked up the side medicines, they are all good medicinal materials."

He didn't even drink the medicine before, he just drank it.

Ji Huai didn't say anything. He took it and drank it, gulping down the last drop. Seeing him drink it, Tang Xiuer breathed a sigh of relief and quickly took the bowl, her eyes were red.

As long as he is willing to take the medicine, he will be fine soon.

At this time, Ji Huai leaned against the wall, closed his eyes, and was accepting the remaining memories and feelings.

In his first life, he was a hunter. Ji's father died early. Ji's mother worked hard to raise three sons by herself. After pulling one after another, the eldest son married a wife.

When it was finally his turn, the family could no longer lift the pot, and Ji's mother fell ill because of it.

The eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law did not support her and asked her to live with her third son.

As the third son, he had no ability and had a seriously ill mother, so he was helpless. Later, Ji's mother asked him to go hunting in the mountains with Hunter Hu, so that he could still earn some income.

When he was ten years old, he followed Hunter Hu up the mountain, and he continued to hunt for ten years. Later, when Hunter Hu passed away, he went up the mountain alone. All the prey he had caught over the years was sold for money. Ji's mother was unable to cure her illness.

The prey that was sold for money was taken home to Brother Ji and Brother Ji's family.

Because he often went into the mountains to search for some meat and game, the two families who had originally disliked them gradually began to feel better. Ordinary people could only eat meat once or twice a year, but his family was different. They were given half a pheasant every three to five times.

With half a hare and all kinds of game, the meal was sumptuous.

Their families have gained a lot of weight, and the children born to Brother Ji and Brother Ji are both better looking than their fellow villagers.

Because he had been disliked since he was a child, he fawned over his two older brothers and sent them whatever delicious food they had, hoping that they would look up to him and his mother.

He also lived in peace in ‌‌, but something unexpected happened at the beginning of this month. He went into the mountains and encountered a big insect. It happened that he was not paying attention, and the big insect attacked him.

He fought a life-and-death struggle with the insect, but in the end he only managed to save his life in embarrassment. Not only was his leg broken, but he was also bitten. At this time, Ji's mother suddenly fell seriously ill, spent all her money on medicine, and died.

Before they died, Brother Ji and Brother Ji took advantage of Ji's mother's funeral to propose that their family should be separated. Since their mother was gone, their family should also be divided. After all, they were all families, and Ji Huai was about to have a family.

It's a child.

There are three rooms in the small courtyard, and each person lives in one. Ji Huai was naturally assigned to the shabbiest utility room. As for other food, he didn't get much, and his two brothers gave him "charity".

A small bag of rice.

He was hunting and not growing food. How could he know how little food there was at home? Ji's mother was often bedridden and could not help much, let alone confront her two daughters-in-law.

Although Brother Ji and Brother Ji still gave Ji Huai a sum of money when they separated, saying they would give him medical treatment and medicine. They also said that each family had no money and only had a little money.

How much money is enough to take the medicine?

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that he dislikes Ji Huai for not being able to hunt anymore, and without Ji Huai's mother, he is even more indifferent to avoid dragging himself down.

Didn’t Ji Huai still have Tang Xiuer?

Speaking of Tang Xiuer, it was the twenty taels of silver that Ji's mother secretly saved, and she went to the next village to buy it. The Tang family had to give birth to six daughters before giving birth to a son. The six daughters were given away or sold.

For sale, Tang Xiuer was raised by Mrs. Tang until she was five years old. When Mrs. Tang was gone, no one was willing to raise her. After Tang's mother took her over, she took Ji's mother's two taels and gave them to Ji Huai as pawn.

A child bride.

In the Tang family, I did all kinds of work. I didn't know how to wash clothes or do farm work for Brother Ji and Brother Ji's family before. I worked as a maid. After becoming Ji Huai's daughter-in-law this year, she got pregnant.

Work.

In his previous life, after he was seriously injured, he overheard Sister-in-law Ji saying that he was afraid that he would become a cripple in the future. From then on, he would not drink the medicine Tang Xiuer gave him, and would even knock it over with his hand.

The little money that was donated when the family was separated has long been gone, and now the money for medicine is earned by Tang Xiuer who stayed up late at night embroidering and weaving bamboo baskets.

Last time she spilled a bowl of medicine, she went out and cried for a long time. Because Ji Huai was a hunter, his anger was stronger. At this time, he gave up on himself, and vented all his anger on Tang Xiuer.

Later, his legs really didn't heal. After limping, he became paranoid and completely disappointed in life. He often yelled at Tang Xiuer.

Sister-in-law Ji is also a trouble maker. When she came in, there was only one girl in Ji's family, Tang Xiu'er. The three sons of Ji's family were pretty good to her. Brother Ji also treated Tang Xiu'er as his little sister. Plus, she was not his biological sister. ‌

‌The young master will feel a little pity. But ‌Sister-in-law Ji is dissatisfied.

She was not a good person. Sister-in-law Ji only gave birth to two daughters, but by virtue of having two sons, she often dominated the family, causing Tang Xiuer to work hard.

After seeing Ji Huai become a cripple, Tang Xiuer is pregnant with a child. She wants to make money. Women are exposed in public. Tang Xiuer's facial features are still good. She is much plumper after she is pregnant with the child. Men will have some thoughts.

Talking behind the back.

It was passed around, and Sister-in-law Ji knew about it, and she relayed it to Ji Huai when she got home. It was ambiguous. Ji Huai was already greatly shocked, but he suddenly became angry, thinking that Tang Xiuer was stealing someone, and his self-esteem was greatly hurt.

She was ridiculed, and her resentment accumulated to the extreme, and she committed violence against Tang Xiuer. The other party lost her footing and fell again, causing severe bleeding. However, she managed to save her life, but the child died.

Sister-in-law Ji didn't stop her, she just looked at the excitement and shouted something. When Tang Xiuer lay down and saw the blood flowing out, she panicked.

She didn't even think about killing anyone, but when Tang Xiuer looked at her with hateful eyes, she felt that the other person deserved it. What did it have to do with her? Wasn't she stealing someone?

Later, more and more shit was thrown at Tang Xiuer's head, and Ji Huai firmly believed that she had stolen someone. Tang Xiuer was so disheartened that she chose to commit suicide by throwing herself into the river.

Ji Huai was left alone. He only knew how to hunt. He had difficulty moving after his injured foot. Plus he was decadent. Why did he want to hunt? Moreover, he almost lost his life when he encountered a big insect. He was afraid inside.

They dare not go into the mountains for fear of death.

After Tang Xiuer's death, no one in the family made any money. He lived in a utility room. When he was very hungry, he went to beg for some food from his eldest and second brothers. He was looked down upon by others. When he was sick, people thought he was unlucky.

I couldn't stop coughing, and no one came in to ask a question.

In the next two days, he lay in bed, unable to move. He could still hear Sister-in-law Ji standing outside the door, quietly asking Brother Ji, "Are you dead?"

‌ It reminded him that when he was injured before, Tang Xiuer had no objection at all to help him bandage and change his dressing, and worked hard to embroider it in exchange for money to buy him medicine.

She is his child bride. Ji's mother has told her since she was a child that he will be her future husband and her god.

He still remembered the nervous, frightened and helpless look in her eyes on their wedding day, and she timidly called him, "Brother Ji."

That was when she mustered up the courage to face her new identity. In fact, she liked him. As she was growing up, Ji's mother repeated it over and over again in her ears, and she couldn't help but like him.

When she sees him coming back with prey, she will be very happy to welcome him with joy. When he goes into the mountains in the morning, she will also look at him with great concern and ask him to pay attention to his safety.

And he also likes her a little bit, but he has been used to pleasing Brother Ji and Brother Ji since he was a child, so he has never learned to love others. Whatever good he has is given to those two families. Ji's mother knows that Tang Xiuer dare not have any objections, ‌

I love those grandchildren, so I just turn a blind eye.

When he was terminally ill, he missed the days of living with her, just the two of them.

In the past, he only brought back one hare, and Brother Ji and Sister-in-law Ji felt that it was not enough. Today's performance was not good, and he was not interested in it. They thought he was lazy. However, as long as Tang Xiuer brought back a few eggs, the opponent's eyes would also be clear.

Light up.

The time Ji's mother just learned that she was pregnant, he got back six bird eggs. Ji's mother thought she should take a supplement, and he also felt that she should take a supplement, so there was no need. Brother Ji and Brother Ji's family, that time

But she was so happy that they peeled it off, but neither of them ate it, so they left her alone.

She was too easily satisfied. Even after Xu had his child, he still felt distressed at that moment and felt that he should leave some for her next time, but this idea soon disappeared.

Tang Xiuer didn't eat anything good when she was pregnant, and she was injured not long after, which made it even harder.

He still remembered the way she woke up and looked at him when the child died, staring at him with tears streaming down her face, filled with despair, and he also regretted it, but was stubborn. Ji's mother had warned him since childhood that Tang Xiuer was

Bought with money.

Since she had spent money, even though she was a wife, there was nothing wrong with being a maid. She really resisted, which was like taking the courage of a leopard. She immediately lost her composure and even spoke harshly to her.
