Chapter 388: Who hurts whom?

"Dujuan, Dujuan, mother made porridge, you get up and eat the porridge."

  Dujuan's eyes rolled, and then she cried with a "wow", Shanzi's mother sat on the edge of the bed Patting her, he said, "Daughter, don't cry. We women have all had this happen to us."

  "It just hurt a little the first time, but it will get better after that."

  "Come on, get up and eat some porridge."

  Du Juan cried . After a while, he shook his head and said, "Auntie, I don't have the strength to get up."

  Shanzi's mother sighed, "I'll bring it to you."

  Du Juan was drinking porridge in the house, and Shanzi's mother heard someone shouting outside the door, "Sister-in-law Huang ——"

  Shan Zi's mother walked out and saw Yougen at the door.

  She hurriedly came out, "There is a house for rent. I asked about it last night. I will take you there."

  Yougen looked embarrassed, "I'm late, I'll delay your business."

  "Ahem, I'm here today I originally went to the city early in the morning and went to the inn to look for my father-in-law and my mother-in-law, but I didn't know that their whole family was suffering from vomiting and diarrhea, so I was busy asking for a doctor."

  Shanzi's mother felt funny in her heart . , but asked with concern on his face: "Does it matter?"

  Yougen sighed, "It doesn't matter, it just takes a few days."

  "The doctor said that they ate little while escaping from famine, so they ate so much fish and meat. He's stuffy and his stomach can't bear it. He told him to drink plain porridge for a few days without oil or meat."

  The two chatted for a while, and Shan Zi's mother took him to a house not far away. This house also had several mud huts. There is a single room available for only one hundred dollars a month.

  Yougen rented it and went to pick up his father-in-law and mother-in-law.

  Shanzi drove the mule cart out of the gate, and it came out later than usual today. The north city gate was already full of mule carts looking for work.

  Shanzi squatted under the wall for a while, then suddenly got up and drove towards Dongcheng.

  Not long after, we arrived at Furong Street.

  Looking from a distance at the three-room front door of the boss, there is a sign with gold letters on a black background.

  Shanzi sat on the shaft of the cart, pulling the reins and letting the mule walk slowly.

  When he reached the door of the inn, Shanzi turned his head and looked inside.

  Just then, I saw Myolie standing in the lobby. She was wearing a moon-white muslin undershirt with a blue belt tied around her waist, which made her waist look plump.

  She was talking to a young man standing opposite, with raised eyebrows and a smile on her face.

  Shanzi's heart felt like it was stung by something, and there was a stinging pain.

  As if she noticed something, Xing'er turned back sharply.

  Shanzi saw her fair face, moist eyes, and bright red lips.

  In just an instant, the smile on that face disappeared, and then Xing'er turned around and went inside.

  Shanzi stared blankly as Xing'er's back disappeared from the back door. Gu Fei was sitting at the counter. He glanced over at her. Shanzi glared at her, raised his whip, and drove the mule away.

  Shanzi came home early that day, unloaded the car, and went to the kitchen to find his mother to pay the copper coins. After entering the kitchen, he saw Du Juan sitting under the stove making a fire.

  It was late yesterday, and the mountain could not be seen clearly under the candlelight.

  Only then could I clearly see Du Juan's appearance. Her skin was a bit dark, and she was still wearing Shan Zi's mother's dusty old clothes. Seeing him looking over, she lowered her head timidly.

  In Shanzi's mind, he thought of Xing'er whom he saw during the day, with red lips and white teeth, and a high-spirited look.

  His face suddenly pulled down, he turned around and walked out.

  Shanzi's mother called him from behind, "Shanzi, where's the money you earned today?"

  "By the way, did you buy the dragon and phoenix candle I asked you to buy?"

  Shanzi didn't answer, went back to the house, and slammed the door. close.

  That night, the bed board creaked again in the middle of the night. Dujuan closed her eyes and listened to Shanzi calling "Myolie" one after another.
