Chapter 30 The Typical Stepmother

"Mother, I already know that I was wrong, and this kind of thing will never happen again in the future, please forgive me, mother!"

Luo Zhanyan, who was punished to kneel outside the door, kept yelling loudly, hoping that the lady inside would let her in to get warm, but the voices from inside disappointed her again and again.

"How many times have I told you that I am not your mother, please don't call me mother in the future, I don't have a daughter like you. You are a prodigal/slut/good like your mother, I can't I can't give birth to a daughter like you."

Kneeling in the snow, she bit her lip tightly and silently endured the humiliation.

If the dead mother hadn't told her that she would treat her as her biological mother in the future, otherwise she wouldn't be staying here like this. Seeing the bright lights inside the room, she gritted her teeth.

You must not let the woman in the room look down on you, what mother said is wrong, even if she doesn't do anything, the woman in that room will not be willing to accommodate her, so why should she repeat it again and again? What about the trouble?
In the end, Luo Zhanyan passed out on the snow. When she woke up again, she had a high fever all over her body and her mind was muddled. The women in the room disagreed all the time, and the bad words kept coming.

Now she was burning all over, and she had been unconscious for a few days, and no one was there to take care of her. It seemed that the woman wanted to let her fend for herself.

In fact, she is used to this kind of life, but she is a little unwilling, because she is her father's daughter, but she has to suffer like this, even a little maid.

It's really unfair, but now she is very sick, and there is no need for someone to take care of her, it seems that time is really too late.

It was late at night, and the winter night was really cold. Even though she curled her body tightly under the quilt, she still couldn't resist the winter cold.

The door was opened suddenly, and the cold wind outside was blowing in, and even the slightest warmth in the quilt disappeared at this moment.

Vaguely, she seemed to see a middle-aged figure, as if grabbing the last straw, she said "Help..." to him, and then lost all intuition.

I don't know how long she has been unconscious, the only thing I can feel is that her illness seems to be much better, but her body is still limp, and she can't exert any strength.

The door was pushed open suddenly, Luo Zhanyan's whole nerves became tense, how could anyone come to see her?Unless it was the woman who came to see if she was dead.

A burst of very fresh fragrance hit her nostrils, she unconsciously smacked her mouth, and she didn't know how long she hadn't eaten, she just felt that she was very hungry at this moment.

"Little girl, I guess you are awake too, come and taste the porridge I made for you."

Hearing this, Luo Zhanyan looked at him suspiciously. A man in his sixties, with many wrinkles on his face, looked quite old.

"who are you?"

Luo Zhanyan glanced at him suspiciously, but she was relieved in a moment. She was already seriously ill, and with no one to take care of her, she might not be able to hold on anytime soon.

In this way, no matter what the man in front of her did, it was nothing to her, a person who didn't live long.

"Heh, the little girl is quite calm, and she doesn't feel scared at all when she sees me."

Luo Zhanyan supported his weak body and smiled slightly in return.The old man came forward, supported her body, and fed her the porridge.

This porridge is very strange to say, it smells fresh and appetizing, but when it is in his mouth, he can taste the faint smell of medicine, and he doesn't know how he did it.

With the help of the old man, Luo Zhanyan's appetite was surprisingly good, and he quickly drank a large bowl of porridge.

Seeing that the little girl had a good appetite, the old man teased her a little.

"You little girl, you look thin and weak. I didn't expect that you have a big appetite. It seems that you should cook more next time, or I, an old man, will still be hungry."

When Luo Zhanyan heard this, the unnatural flush on his face deepened, and he hid silently under the quilt, ignoring him.

Slowly, the room fell silent, only the whistling wind, the sound of the door closing, echoed in their ears constantly.

"Little girl, I don't care if you're asleep or not, but I'm leaving, and your illness is almost recovered. Remember to take good care of yourself in the future."

Luo Zhanyan's closed eyes slowly shed a tear. If she said she didn't care, it would be a lie. After all, he took care of her for a few days. Now that she is gone, she will inevitably feel a little bit reluctant.

"Leave these things to you. I hope they will be useful to you in the future. I also have this token. If you have any troubles in the future, bring this token to Changbai Mountain to find me!"

Luo Zhanyan felt the breath of the old man, and after she put the things on the bed, she left.

During the period, Luo Zhanyan secretly looked at him, and simply made a bed on the ground, but in such a cold winter, it is inevitable that an old man sleeps on the ground... not very good.

But she didn't say anything, just a little reluctance in her heart, turned around, and fell asleep after a while.

The next day, Luo Zhanyan woke up very early, and the first thing she did was to see if the old man was still there, but she was disappointed, even the quilt that fell on the ground was tidied up, as if this A few days is like her dream.

Fumbling with her hands on the bed, she found the book and an iron token, and realized that all this was not a dream.

She just recovered from her illness, she is still a little weak, and she is still very afraid of the cold, but she can already take care of herself.

She quietly hid the token, then picked up the book and read it slowly.

This is a book of medical techniques, which records many common diseases, and has very accurate descriptions of the properties of many medicines, including several poisons.

Luo Zhanyan took a look at her swollen hands, and guessed that this winter will not be peaceful, and even she will suffer from frostbite in the future
After looking through the medical books carefully, she found the prescription for treating frostbite, so she used the first medicine she made for herself.

Therefore, Luo Zhanyan played the role of a maid by her sister's side on weekdays, and when she waited for the evening, she began to study medical books.

Her status is low, even if she disappears for a few days, no one will say anything about her. In the end, she just needs to find an excuse and say that she is unwell.
