Chapter 106 The cat cries and the mouse fakes mercy
If a person suffers from amenorrhea after being frightened, what medicine should he take?
Xing Rui was thinking as she walked, and suddenly, she thought of the kind of grass she saw in the drug store when she first entered this world.
If I remember correctly, it should be ‘motherwort’.
This stuff is available everywhere and can be used to make medicinal soups all year round.
But looking at Xing Min's face, she is typical of losing Qi and blood. Even if she drinks motherwort, is it still a problem to replenish her blood?
You can't find the blood-tonifying oral liquid here. If you can get some brown sugar, it would be a good thing.
"On the way back, don't forget to pull the motherwort and boil it for water to drink. I'll ask them to bring back some brown sugar from the town tomorrow.
I make water for you every day, and you come to me secretly at night."
Naturally, she couldn't let her take these things home, that old woman was even more vicious than the stepmother.
I definitely won’t boil motherwort for Xing Min, nor will I buy her brown sugar to drink water.
Maybe she would take it away and drink it herself after seeing it. Anyway, that old woman can do anything.
"Eldest sister,"
Xing Min took Xing Rui's hand and looked very moved, but Xing Rui smiled coldly in her heart.
If I didn't owe the original owner such a huge favor to the silly lady, why would I care about this girl who is as vicious as her old lady from the Xing family?
A cat cries while a mouse pretends to be compassionate. I'm talking about Xing Min. Her facial expressions are comparable to those of the American Sichuan opera.
"Sister, you are so kind to your sister."
As he said that, everyone came closer,
Xing Rui really wanted to slap her away, but she gritted her teeth and endured it.
"You should be familiar with motherwort. You can find it everywhere. I'll tell you how to boil the water, and you can boil it yourself.
You have to rely on yourself to do this. I have many things to do and don’t have time to help you.
I can only buy you some brown sugar and drink it with water, so you can drink it secretly."
"Eldest sister, I know, I know you are the best to your sister. I know motherwort, we have a lot of it in our field.
I will pick some when I get back and cook it myself. I will do whatever the eldest sister tells me."
"Um,"
Xing Rui just nodded without saying anything else, pushed away Xing Min who was clinging to her, and followed the godmother in front of her.
Today, after listening to my godmother’s words, I went deeper and further.
In the forest in front of me, no one else has picked the leaves and old buds of Acanthus eleuthero.
One by one, the three of them picked the baskets full as soon as noon arrived.
"Godmother, take a rest and eat something, and then we'll go back."
The old lady was tired after working all morning, so Xing Rui helped her sit down.
"Sister, have you brought anything to eat?"
Xing Rui looked at Xing Min in disbelief. She, Xing Min, didn't even bring any water except a basket.
Seeing her running out to drink water several times, Xing Rui did not give her the water he brought.
When the godmother saw it, she was about to give the water she brought to Xing Min to drink, but Xing Rui stopped her.
"I just brought two cornmeal pancakes, one for each of us."
"Girl, you can eat it, but my godmother can't, so give it to Xiao Min."
Before Xing Rui could hand her corn cake to Xing Min, she had already snatched it away from Mrs. Wang's hand.
She opened her big mouth and bit into a third of the cornmeal pancake as big as her palm.
Seeing her devouring food without caring about others, Xing Rui hated the original owner's sister even more.
Xing Rui ate half of the corn pancake and handed the rest to her godmother. Her godmother said she was full, but Xing Min jumped up from the ground.
"Sister, if you don't want to eat, can you give it to me?"
"It's not like you don't know my appetite. Two pancakes won't do anything at all."
Xing Rui said without being polite, and ate half of the corn tortilla while Xing Min swallowed.
"Sister, I'm going to drink some water. Please wait for me."
Xing Min got up and ran away. Before Xing Rui could say anything, she had already ran out.
"Girl, we have water, why don't you give Xiao Min a drink?"
Mrs. Wang looked at Xing Rui very puzzled and asked.
"Goddess, this water is only enough for us to drink. We didn't bring out the outsiders' share in the first place.
It's Xing Min who suddenly wants to follow us. If she doesn't follow us, wouldn't she also want to drink from the mountains and rivers?"
"Girl, do you still regret that girl for treating you like that before?"
Mrs. Wang is so old, how could she not see Xing Rui's little thoughts.
"Godmother, you are overthinking. If I really hated her, Xing Min would not have brought her here, let alone buy her brown sugar water with my own money.
This girl belongs to the white-eyed wolf group. It has been several years since I was kicked out by my family, and no one of them has cared about me.
The first dozen years I owed them were returned to their family, and now Xing Rui is just Xing Rui and has nothing to do with them."
"well,"
Mrs. Wang stretched out her wrinkled hand, grabbed Xing Rui's hand and stroked it gently while comforting her,
"You silly girl, how can it be okay?
You were born by them, and their blood remains in you. No matter where you go in this life, you will always be their child.
The past is past, don’t think about it anymore, life is getting better day by day.
You are always at odds with your closest blood relatives, which will only make the villagers laugh at you. Are you right what your godmother said?"
How could Xing Rui not know that both her godmother and godfather are good people?
If it hadn't been for their help over the years, I'm afraid that I and my children would have starved to death a long time ago.
The reason why I recognized them as my godfather and godmother was because I wanted to repay these kindhearted people well on behalf of my original owner.
"Godmother,"
Xing Rui also touched her godmother's hand gently and hurriedly smiled,
"My godmother is right, but Xing Rui is a petty person. Anyone who is kind to me, Xing Rui, I will repay her for the rest of my life.
You and your godfather are my benefactors. Xing Rui wants to make you and your godfather well fed and clothed for the rest of your life and live more comfortably than anyone else.
Let those people in the village who say you have no children see that good people like you can be taken care of when you are old."
"Daughter..."
After shouting, Mrs. Wang was so choked that she couldn't say a word. She patted Xing Rui's hand and shed tears.
After sitting for a while, Xing Min still didn't come back. Xing Rui felt something was wrong, got up and shouted twice.
