The fierce stepmother of the farm family, brought her cubs to get rich

Chapter 89

There is no pen and paper in this room, so Gu Manxiu can only speak out the herbs.

"This disease is not difficult to treat, but don't want to live here anymore. If you keep catching cold, no matter how much you take medicine, you won't get better." Gu Manxiu said, "You can go to the pharmacy to grab chrysanthemums and mulberry leaves. Still have some cough, add some ginkgo loquat leaves to boil and take it."

"Miss Awan has a cold stomach, remember to eat less cold food."

When Gu Manxiu was talking, the woman sitting on the bed embroidering looked casual, but Wuying listened more seriously than anyone else.

Jiang Yichen was a little moved when he saw the woman speaking slowly.

This person can hunt, cook, and even has some medical skills, and his kung fu is not bad. What else is there that she hasn't shown?
"Your body is too weak, and you are a little anemic. You can eat more food that nourishes your energy and blood." Gu Manxiu persuaded A Wan earnestly, "You should go live in the mountains with Wuying, where is the house?" It's much better than here, and it's good for your body."

Speaking of this, the woman on the bed spoke the first sentence other than shouting.

"I don't go up the mountain."

Gu Manxiu really didn't know how A Wan could stay here so stubbornly in this small dilapidated house that looked like it would collapse when the wind blew.

Gu Manxiu straightened up helplessly, and saw Wu Ying's worried and anxious eyes.

It's strange, this girl A Wan obviously has a gentle temperament, so how come she is almost a bit indifferent to curing the disease.

"You two go out first." Gu Manxiu said, "I'll talk to Miss Awan."

Jiang Yichen naturally had no objection when he heard the words, and he followed him because he was worried about Gu Manxiu's safety. Now he knew that it was really just to see a doctor, so he went out with Wuying in peace.

The Wuying didn't even dare to close the door forcefully, for fear that if I didn't pay attention, the door would fall down by myself.
As soon as the two left, Gu Manxiu casually sat down beside the bed. The girl didn't care about Gu Manxiu, but kept embroidering a handkerchief in her hands.

There were still many handkerchiefs beside A Wan's pillow, some of which seemed to have been embroidered, and some were still blank.

The materials of these handkerchiefs were not bad, Gu Manxiu suspected that this woman might have spent all her belongings on buying handkerchiefs. If she used the money to see a doctor, she would probably be fine by now.

"Can I have a look?" Gu Manxiu said, pointing to the handkerchief next to A Wan's pillow.

Ah Wan's hand paused, and she nodded after thinking about it: "If my sister wants to see it, just take it and see it. I am just embroidering at will."

Not talking about the treatment, it seems that this girl is as gentle as before.

Gu Manxiu took the pile of handkerchiefs over and looked at them carefully, and couldn't help but click her tongue in admiration.

I am afraid that even the beautiful ladies in the palace can hardly catch up with this embroidery work.

"Why did you embroider so many eagles?" Gu Manxiu couldn't help asking when she saw all kinds of long eagles embroidered on the fifth handkerchief.

On the square scarf that A Wan gave her as a gift before she finished embroidering it last time, it was also embroidered with eagles.

The woman smiled slightly, and said back: "The little girl has seen many eagles since she was a child, and she feels happy when she grows up."

So from the time I started to embroider, the stitches were all long eagles.

After reading it, Gu Manxiu folded the handkerchief and put it back, and asked indifferently, "Do you like this eagle or Wuying?"

The silver needle pierced her finger, and the sharp pain made A Wan startled.

I have been embroidering for many years, even if I close my eyes and show off, I will not stick the needle into myself, and now I am panicking, it is exactly what Gu Manxiu said.

"Sister, sister, don't be joking." A Wan lowered her head and picked up the needle and thread again, pretending to be calm: "How could I like it?"

"Okay, if you don't want to talk about it, then I'll ask another question."

Gu Manxiu's tone was a little aggressive: "Why don't you want to treat your illness?"

Sickness is a trivial matter, but reluctance to be treated is a major headache.

When this woman knew that her illness could be cured, there was no trace of joy in her eyes, like a pool of stagnant water, no matter what others said, it would no longer cause waves.

Except for one moment.

That was the moment when A Wan secretly watched Wu Ying.

Only at that time, Gu Manxiu could perceive that this woman, A Wan, is a person with vivid emotions, not a machine that can only embroider.

The woman sitting on the bed was silent for a while, and suddenly she put down the handkerchief in her hand, closed her eyes and leaned back: "I'm already a useless person, so what's the difference if I live a few more years?"

"But you clearly know that Wuying will be difficult."

"No!" A Wan suddenly opened his eyes and said excitedly, "I finally let her leave me and live a normal woman's life in the mountains, how can I do it now?"

"How can you drag her into the water again?"

While talking, Gu Manxiu saw a tear falling on the back of the woman Bai Zhe's hand.

The crying was so depressing that it made Gu Manxiu feel a little uncomfortable.

Even if she was alone here, even if this was her home, Ah Wan gritted her teeth and never cried out.

Wu Ying and A Wan are friends who have played together since they were young. A Wan has a softer temper and is easily bullied by the children in the village. Half of the credit for the girl growing up safely is because of Wu Ying.

"You are a mad dog! Why do you keep running around this dumb guy!"

The young Wuying beat people all over the ground with claws, and warned bluntly: "You are not allowed to bully Ah Wan!"

Every time there was a fight, Wuying would pitifully show up in front of the little girl and ask her to apply medicine to her wound.

Once this medicine is rubbed, it will last ten years.

At the age of fifteen, Wu Ying was proposed to be married by fellow villagers, but she has always refused to marry.

After being questioned by her parents at home, Wuying had no choice but to say that she had already fallen in love with the girl she had protected for ten years.

This kind of thing was really rare in ancient times, Wu Ying's parents couldn't believe it, and they didn't want to tell it, they just felt very ashamed, in order to get their daughter back on track, they actually wanted to drive A Wan out of the village.

Ah Wan is a witch.

During that time, such rumors were always circulating in the village.

Wuying didn't know that it was her parents who spread the rumors, and she happily watched the little girl run away all day, until the little girl came back with a scar on her face, and Wuying didn't know about it.

"Who did it?" Wuying held up A Wan's face anxiously and asked, "Who hit you!!"

A Wan turned her face away, unwilling to say a word, and let Wu Ying, who was already very beautiful at that time, turn around anxiously.
