LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 1 I'm Not Dead
Pei Xiu woke up amid the sound of children crying, dizzy and a dull pain in the back of her head. The noise of the children's crying made her head hurt. Can she be quiet for a while, and wanted to open her mouth to speak, but her throat hurt and she couldn't make a sound. With effort, he opened his eyes, three children stood beside the bed, the eldest child still had tears and snot hanging on his face, and exclaimed in surprise: ''Mother is awake, mother is awake, mother is not dead. ''
Suddenly, the pot exploded by the ear, 'Mother, mother...''
Pei Xiu's head was getting bigger, and she said with a dry throat: ''Water...''
The eldest child looked at the age of eight or nine, and hurriedly got off the kang to pour water, and carefully brought the water to Chen Xiu to drink.
After drinking the water, Pei Xiucai felt that the whole person came alive and became a little more awake. The sour and foul smell of the nose was faintly lingering, and the thin quilt on the body was gray and not slippery, and the original color could not be seen.
I looked at the room, the kang was quite large, taking up one-third of the room, and there was a large cage at the end of the kang. In the middle of the room there was a broken table with two missing corners, not even a stool, and the house had four walls. Pei Xiu frowned deeply, with a look of disgust. Now there is no way but to do it. It is a great blessing to be alive.
''Mother, are you hungry? Let the hammer cook eggs for you. '' The eldest child saw her frowning, thinking that she was hungry and angry, and said quickly.
''Well.''Now I can't get out of bed, I can only work as child labor, occupying their mother's body, they have to be responsible for her, and she will be responsible for them.
''Mother lie down and rest for a while, something called wood, bench. '' After saying that, he turned around and ran out.
The two children were lying on the edge of the kang, daring not to quarrel with their mother to rest, nor to leave, for fear that the mother would be gone as soon as they left, they have been guarding the original body since yesterday.
The original body was sick and had a high fever for two days. It turned cold in autumn, the clothes were not thick enough, and the quilt was thin, so he fell ill, and he was reluctant to see the doctor taking medicine. Yesterday morning, when I came back from the thatched hut, I didn't stand up and fell down. The back of my head hit the steps and there was a lot of blood. The frightened children hurried to find the doctor. As a result, the fall was gone, and Pei Xiu was allowed to wear it.
Pei Xiu is thirty-five years old. She has been married for ten years, but she still can't conceive a child. Her parents-in-law have opinions on her. Fortunately, her husband has been protecting her. She often tells her that she should not be under pressure. It doesn't matter if you just adopt one, Pei Xiu has always been grateful that she has married a good husband. Because I don't have children, I often go to the orphanage to visit the children in the orphanage, thinking about having another test tube, and adopting one if I really can't get pregnant. This Saturday, when I was free, I planned to go to the orphanage. I saw my husband's car parked on the side of the road after passing through the park, so I got out of the car and went to the park to have a look. Who knew that when I saw the scene that made me sad, my husband was holding a three or four The 30-year-old boy, another woman in her thirties held the boy's other hand, like a family of three, and the boy happily called his father. Pei Xiu's tears rolled down immediately, she turned around and ran, crossing the road without looking, and was hit by an approaching truck.
Pei Xiu thought she was dead, but she didn't expect to be able to come back to life in another world after a car accident. After being drowsy for a day and a night, I read the memory of this body. The woman who occupies this body is called Pei Xiu, and she can only survive with this identity in the future.
Hammer brought a bowl of porridge and brought in a hard-boiled egg, Mother, be careful it's hot. ''
Eight-year-old children can cook and are very capable. This porridge is really thin, half the bowl is rice soup. The two little ones watched eagerly, gulping saliva all the time.
Pei Xiu knocked the egg, peeled off the shell, revealing the tender egg white, and handed it to the three-year-old bench, saying, 'Take a bite''
As soon as the bench opened its mouth, it was pulled by a hammer. No, my mother is sick. Eggs are for my mother's body, so I can't eat it on the bench. ''
''Mother's throat is still sore, and the eggs can't be swallowed, so just drink porridge. You can share the eggs. '' Handed the egg to the bench again, the three brothers took a small bite each,
I ate it carefully. Eggs are the best food in the world besides meat. They rarely eat them. The one who cherishes them takes a bite and chews them slowly. will be delicious.
Seeing how satisfied they were eating, Pei Xiu felt uncomfortable and tight. It was just an egg. The ancient times were still too poor to be able to go back on their own, so I could only use this identity to live in the ancient times, and I still had to find a way to live a better life.
After drinking the porridge, I have something in my stomach, my body feels warm and I have some strength, but I still need more rest. Pei Xiu instructed the three children, ''You three go out to play, catch some bugs and feed the chickens, mother. Need more rest now. ''
''Ok mother, we'll come back to cook porridge for you later. ''Hammer pulled the two younger brothers out, not forgetting to close the door.
Pei Xiu heard the footsteps of several children leaving, and the voice of the second child, Wood, saying that the mother woke up and seemed to be different, but she didn't scold the elder brother, and even divided the eggs for us to eat.
Pei Xiu lay down on her side and sorted out her memory. When Yuanshen was 10 years old, her father fell down the hill to chop firewood and died, and her mother died of a serious illness when she was 13 years old, leaving only one older brother, who was 5 years older than her and married a year before her mother became seriously ill. The original parents died, and the reputation of the parents was spread. No one dared to marry. It was not until the age of eighteen that she married her current husband.
The original husband, named Zhou Cheng, went to the mountain for seven days, rushing to the mountain to hunt game before winter, so that he could go to the town to exchange money for oil, salt and seasoning. Their family has only five acres of land, and they have been purchased successively over the past few years.
Zhou Cheng was the fourth oldest at home, because the two older brothers and one older sister got married in succession, emptying the family, and the family was poor. The children in the village were frightened, and the tall and strong body was still full of evil spirits, and the young adults in the village did not dare to approach.
Zhou Cheng's parents separated the two brothers after Zhou Cheng left home and lived with their eldest son. After Zhou Cheng came back, his parents felt ashamed of him. They hadn't married yet after twenty-four, so they immediately sought out a matchmaker, but Zhou Cheng's scars on his face and the suffocation on his body made no one dare to marry him. Later, he came to ask the original owner for a kiss, which meant that Zhou Cheng was not afraid of being beaten because of his evil spirit.
Pei Xiu felt worried when she thought about it. Even if she had three more sons, she could always support her if she could think of a way to support her. However, what should be done with multiple husbands is not a matter of having too many pairs of chopsticks. And it's still ancient here and you can't get divorced. Thinking about it makes my head hurt, so I can only take one step at a time. The Zhou Cheng in my memory, although taciturn and reticent to talk, was still very gentle towards the original owner and the children, unlike outsiders who thought he would be rough. Now I hope that we can coexist peacefully and not be thrown off the vest.
I fell asleep after thinking about it. My body was too weak. Continuous production would have hurt my body, and I fell down with a cold. The door was gently pushed open a gap, and the hammer saw that the mother was still sleeping with her eyes closed, so she closed the door slightly, holding the insects wrapped in leaves, and went to feed the chickens.
The wood and the bench stood in the chicken pen, holding up two eggs and shouting at the hammer happily: ''Brother, two hens laid eggs today, and they will make up for my mother's body at night. '' There are four hens and one rooster in the chicken pen, and the original owner raises the eggs. In this day and age, people can't get enough to eat, let alone chickens. It would be good if four hens can lay one egg every day.
Hammer hurried over to pick up the eggs and take them to the kitchen, and cook them for the mother to eat when she wakes up. Now that it’s Shishi, I light the fire to cook breakfast. In ancient times, I only ate two meals a day. Usually, I had breakfast at Chenshi. Today, my mother gave them an egg to share, so they cooked a little later, and their lunch was porridge. The hammer first put a bowl of porridge and put it on the side, intending to wait for the mother to wake up for the mother to eat. Originally, there were only a few grains of rice in a pot of porridge, but when I fished out a bowl, I couldn't tell where the rice was. The hammer added another scoop of water, covered the lid, put the green vegetables into the pot after boiling, put a little salt, and boiled it for a while.
Pei Xiu stood at the door of the room and saw the skilled operation of the hammer, and sighed secretly, why is she so poor, she can only wait for the child's father to come back to see if he has brought some prey and can exchange some food.
Mu Tou took a big bowl and filled the porridge, and asked Mu to serve Mother's porridge. He planned to bring it into the main room first. When he turned around and saw Mother leaning against the door, he didn't know what he was thinking, and called out, Mother, what are you doing? Woke up. ''
The bench hurried over and hugged Pei Xiu's thigh, ''Mother, are you all right? The bench is afraid. ''
Pei Xiu touched the head of the bench. Mother is fine, but she just caught the cold and fell again. Now she is fine, and she will be fine for a few days. ''
The hammer brought the vegetable porridge into the main room and ran out immediately, holding Pei Xiu's arm, ''Mother, I'll help you go back to the room and lie down. ''
''No, I just woke up and wanted to walk, help me to the main room. '' The main room is in the middle, facing the courtyard entrance, with three rooms side by side, the room for Pei Xiu's couple on the left, the three children's room on the right, and the kitchen on the west side, which is full of firewood and sundries. On the east side is the chicken coop. Five chickens are raised. The family's oil, salt, sauce and vinegar are collected from these chickens.
Yuanshen is a person who knows how to live, but he is too good at living. He is reluctant to eat, reluctant to wear, and save money for those who are digging, and he is reluctant to break a penny into eight-petal flowers. In fact, there is still some silver money in the house, and the original is that he would rather be frozen and hungry than take out flowers. Several children have never eaten eggs several times when they are so old. Zhou Cheng's prey has been exchanged for money, and the whole family has not eaten a single bite.
Pei Xiu sighed after thinking about it. The children were yellow-faced and skinny. How could the mother be so cruel? She was reluctant to treat the children so harshly. She thought that she would have to go to the city when she got better and buy some things. Otherwise, how would she spend the winter? She didn't want to spend the winter shivering. The winter in the north could be 20 to 30 degrees below zero. In previous years, the whole family would huddle on a kang and burn firewood all day. Fortunately, the firewood didn’t need money. Zhou Cheng was a hard-working man.
There is a table and four long wooden stools in the main room. The hammer moved the porridge in front of Pei Xiu, ''Mother eat quickly, you'll be fine if you get sick. ''
''Well, you eat too. '' Pei Xiu watched the three children hula hula and drank vegetable porridge and porridge. The most important thing now is to take care of themselves.
Pei Xiu went back to the house after eating the porridge, and told the three little ones to go out to play, not to go to the river, not to fight with other children, but to go to the mountain to pick up branches, and be sure to come back before dark. younger brother. ’:
''Good girl. '' The boss responded.
''Mother, we will listen to my brother. ' ' Wood also said.
''Mother, I will come back to accompany you later. ’’ The bench isn’t far behind either.
Seeing the three brothers running out of the courtyard, Pei Xiu leaned against the wall and walked slowly to the kitchen. She had to see how much food was left in the kitchen and what was missing, so that she could sum up what to buy in the town in two days. .
