"Qianqian, wake up, wake up quickly!"

Who is calling me?

My head hurts!

The calls are like calling a spirit, one after another, continuously.

Xia Qianqian tried to open her eyes, but her eyelids were heavy.

Someone lifted her neck, pried open her mouth, and forced the bitter liquid into her mouth.

"Cough cough cough..."

The strong smell of the medicine spread straight into her mouth and nose. She woke up suddenly, her heartbeat was beating like a drum, and she broke out in a cold sweat when she opened her eyes.

Where is this?

In a dark earthen house, under the broken low windows, a strange woman sat by the kang, holding a medicine bowl in her hand.

She styled her hair in a bun, wore a wooden hairpin, and wore a dark green skirt. She had a delicate and sickly appearance. When she saw Xia Qianqian waking up, her eyebrows and eyes relaxed for a moment, and she could not hide her joy.

Beside her, a little boy's big eyes flashed, and he suddenly pursed his lips. He rushed over, hugged Xia Qianqian, and cried loudly, "Sister, Yuanbao thought you were dead, oh oh oh..."

Xia Qianqian frowned and looked at them, her mind a little dazed.

How can she survive?

Her eyes were fixed on Xiaohong's hand on the quilt, and she said with difficulty, "Is there a mirror?"

"Yes."

Yuan Bao reacted quickly, turned around and took a bronze mirror from the kang, held it up and said, "Sister, don't worry, you are not disfigured."

On the blurry mirror, a small slapped face is reflected.

She has beautiful eyebrows and bright eyes, small earlobes, and a slender neck. She is wearing a dark cloth whose color cannot be seen clearly.

Under the cloth, she was thin, with not much flesh on her body, as if she could be blown away by a strong wind.

Facing the person in the mirror, she pursed her lips and smiled bitterly, with a signature pear dimple looming on her cheek.

This person is not her.

She is twenty-four years old, already an adult, but the person in the bronze mirror has a childish look on her face, no more than fifteen or sixteen years old.

But...

She looks so much like her.

If this sallow face grows longer after a period of time, it may look exactly like hers.

Xia Qianqian's thinking is confused.

A hand pinched the back of her hand hard, and she cried out in pain, followed by a stabbing pain in her head, and some memories that did not belong to her came flooding back.

Xia Qianqian was stunned as if she had been struck by lightning.

"Qianqian, don't be afraid!"

Li Yunniang picked up the medicine bowl, handed it forward, and said comfortingly: "After drinking the medicine, you will feel sweaty and just have a good sleep."

A large black porcelain bowl with three large openings missing from the rim. The soup inside the bowl is rich in flavor.

Xia Qianqian is known to be an antipyretic and analgesic medicinal material as soon as you smell it.

She took the bowl, drank the soup in one breath, and then lay down like a corpse, staring blankly at a spider web in the corner of the room.

The taste of the medicine is bitter and astringent, and the stomach is full of waves, as if the whole heart is soaked in it, and the bitterness is unbearable.

She clearly remembered that she was invited to attend an international medical conference. On the way back, the plane encountered strong turbulence, damaged the fuselage, and crashed into the sea.

There must be no bones left of her.

Who knows, she is still alive...

"Qianqian, after drinking the medicine, you can rest well while my mother goes out to work."

Li Yunniang settled her down and asked Yuan Bao to take care of her sister, then picked up the hoe and went out of the door.

Xia Qianqian lay on the kang and slowly closed her eyes.

Yuanbao was like a puppy, lying beside her obediently, leaning against her arm.

Silence permeated every corner of the house, but it could not penetrate Xia Qianqian's turbulent mood.

I don’t know how much time passed, but suddenly there was a knock on the door like a drum beating outside the courtyard, and a woman shouted at the top of her voice: "Li Yunniang, come out here."

Yuan Bao was so frightened that he sat up and his facial features on his sallow little face tensed together, "Sister, it's the tigress that's coming to our door."

He was so frightened that he hid in the kang.

Xia Qianqian frowned and stood up. In this family, Li Yunniang was not here, so she would naturally need to come forward when something happened.

Who allowed her to travel through time and become the eldest daughter of this family?

After exiting the wing door, you are faced with a large courtyard, surrounded by uneven stone walls. At the front end, there is a dilapidated gate.

After walking down the steps and entering the courtyard, the door was forcefully pushed open and a woman broke in.

Judging by her age, she is only in her early fifties, with a round face and casual features. However, she wears beads and hairpins, and a fancy dress.

The clothes are stretched on the body, and there are several swimming rings on the belly. The gorgeous clothes have no sense of beauty at all, but instead create an inexplicable sense of comedy.

This person is the tigress mentioned by Yuan Bao, Zhang Cuicui, the neighbor across the door.

Xia Qianqian glanced lightly and said with a pleasant expression: "Aunt Zhang, do you have something to do with my mother?"

Zhang Cuicui was shocked by this polite behavior and clear questions.

She took a step back and looked Xia Qianqian up and down with her eyes wide open, "Are you... that stupid girl?"

Xia Qianqian doesn't like the title of silly girl.

She looked condensed, pursed her lips and emphasized: "I have a name, my name is Xia Qianqian."

The stupid girl is no longer stupid.

Zhang Cuicui was a little in disbelief. With a straight face, she regained her composure and asked, "Where is your mother? When will she pay back the money she owes me?"

Owe money?

Xia Qianqian's thoughts moved slightly and she looked slightly surprised, "How much money does she owe you?"

Zhang Cuicui curled her lips, raised her fingers, and said proudly: "Your mother owes me ten taels of silver."

Ten taels of silver?

Fu'an Village is truly a remote mountainous area with a lack of supplies and low living standards. There are less than 100 households in the village, all of whom are poor.

The villagers all live on what little food they can dig out of the fields, and there is even less money left on hand.

Any family with ten taels of silver is considered a ten thousand-yuan household.

Li Yunniang lives by sewing and mending clothes, how dare she owe so much money at once?

She dares to borrow it, can Zhang Cuicui lend it to her for no reason?

She can really pull it off!

Xia Qianqian looked calm and asked in a calm tone: "Ten taels of silver is not a small amount. Aunt Zhang said that my mother owes you, so I must show you the certificate."

Yo yo yo! This idiot girl still knows how to get a certificate?

Zhang Cuicui sneered in her heart, raised her voice and began to shout: "Li Yunniang, please come out! Your daughter fell into the Fu'an River, and you begged me, my man, to save her. We should finally settle this account."<

/p>

There is not much excitement in Fu'an Village on weekdays. If someone's dog is lost, a cat has a litter, or the salted fish hanging under the eaves is lost, the whole village will be in an uproar, not to mention someone is quarreling now.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

Crowds of melon-eating people came in droves, and soon the Xia family’s gate, which was deserted, was surrounded by people.

"Everyone, please give me some feedback!"

Zhang Cuicui twisted the corners of her sleeves, pretended to wipe the crocodile tears from the corners of her eyes, and cried: "The stupid girl fell into the water, and Li Yunniang knelt down and begged from house to house, let everyone save her."

"The place where she fell into the water is an undercurrent area. Who dares to risk rowing there?"

The melon-eating villagers whispered to each other and nodded one after another.

Zhang Cuicui has a arrogant temper, but what she said is true.

Seeing that her words were recognized by the people around her, Zhang Cuicui became more confident.

She glanced at Xia Qianqian, gritted her teeth and said: "My man fell into the water and got cold in order to save you. The time spent in these days of seeing a doctor, buying medicine, repairing the boat and nets, and the decoction to recuperate the body..."

She clapped her hands together and pressed forward step by step: "If I hadn't seen that your life was difficult, ten taels of silver wouldn't be enough to take care of yourself."

Zhang Cuicui has been running rampant in the countryside for more than ten years, and she is famous for being a lazy person. She specializes in teasing widows, saying that he destroyed the boat and the net in order to save people?

Grandpa Tian!

The undercurrent area of ​​Fu'an River is full of rocks and turbulent undercurrents. He, a man who cherishes his life as much as gold, dare not go there in broad daylight, let alone go to rescue people in the middle of the night?

Moreover, his boat is mostly idle all year round, and the fishing net has never been mended by Zhang.

Zhang Cuicui was not afraid of being embarrassed when she said these words.

To put it bluntly, she just wanted to extort some money in the name of Xia Qianqian falling into the water and Li Yunniang asking the villagers to save her.

Poor orphan and widowed mother, without a man in charge of the family, completely unable to resist Zhang Cuicui.
