Chapter 2 Sign-in Rewards
When Jiang Youzhen woke up again, he found himself still sleeping on a hard wooden board, but fortunately this time it was not a door board but a bed board.
"Erlang, you're finally awake!" Erya Jiang Chun burst into tears of joy when she saw Jiang Youzhen woke up.
She threw herself on Jiang Youzhen and cried so hard that her tears wet her clothes.
Jiang Youzhen's breathing became heavy. This heavy love almost suffocated her.
"Second sister, let go of Erlang, he's rolling his eyes."
When San Ya saw Jiang Youzhen's appearance, she hurriedly pulled Er Ya to sit up.
"Ahem! Is there any water? Is there any food?" Jiang Youzhen felt his stomach was empty and his body was unusually cold.
Looking around, the bare walls of the house were a courtesy, as there were drafts in the corners.
The quilt she was covering herself with was a thin cloud-like design. She felt that there was nothing like cotton inside and had no idea what it was.
"Hey! It must be a great help to know that you need to eat."
Erya wiped her tears with joy, then stood up and said she was going to the kitchen to serve the meal.
Jiang Youzhen couldn't help but interrupt San Ya as she chattered about how dangerous the situation was, how cruel her family members were, and how they insisted on letting her die.
"Third sister, I'm cold!"
"Then I'll go get you my bedding!" San Ya said and went out.
It’s not that Jiang Youzhen can’t empathize, but she has more important things to do now.
There was no one in the room, and Jiang Youzhen immediately reached into his collar.
It's over! It's so flat, like a flat land!
She reached her hand down again and breathed a sigh of relief when she found nothing extra.
Although she knew that Erlang was a woman disguised as a man, she was still nervous, as long as nothing happened.
As for what was missing, considering the original owner's daily life, it was good enough for him to be alive, and what's more, he was still young!
Don’t ask for too much at the moment, keeping your health healthy is the key.
"System?" She thought of the system she had used before she fell into a coma. It shouldn't be an illusion, right?
There was no response for a long time, and she panicked.
Suddenly remembering that she seemed to have received something when she signed in before she passed out, she quickly recited it silently.
Then she spread out her palm, and when she saw a black pill the size of a longan, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Life-saving pills" can heal the wounds on her head and any serious injuries.
The name is simple and crude, but I don’t know if the effect is exaggerated.
But whose pills are so big? Jiang Youzhen complained, and the wound on the back of her head made her gasp in pain.
Never mind, I won't die after eating it. Even if I die, I might be able to wear it back.
He swallowed the pill in one gulp. Just as he swallowed it, Erya came in, followed by the original owner's mother, Shen.
Jiang Youzhen sorted out the relationships of this family. Although the family was prosperous, it was extremely poor.
Her father is the second child in the family, with an older brother, a third sister, and a fourth brother.
The one who was lifting the door panel just now and spent money on studying was Jiang Youzhen’s fourth uncle.
In this regard, Jiang Youzhen couldn't help but spit on it. Such a poor family had to spend money on education, but in the end the books he read were wasted.
With such a ruthless character, he would not be afraid of being ridiculed by his classmates if he really sold out the original owner.
Even if Jiang Youzhen hadn't come through, this scholar would probably have ended his career as an official after doing such a thing.
As soon as Shen came in, she saw that Jiang Youzhen was really awake, so she hurried to her bedside and wiped her tears again.
Then San Ya and Siya came in. The four women stood beside her bed and cried while talking. The room was suddenly filled with sobs.
Those who didn't know would have thought she had passed away, and her crying was even more miserable than this leaky, shabby house.
Jiang Youzhen felt helpless. As long as he was not dead, their lives would be better.
The original owner's mother, Shen, and her husband Jiang Fugui gave birth to three daughters in a row, and had long been unable to hold their heads up in her husband's family.
Until she became pregnant with Jiang Youzhen, she was hoping for a son, but unexpectedly, she gave birth to a daughter.
In order to avoid being divorced by her in-laws, Shen lied and said she had given birth to a son.
This lie has been told for 13 years.
Until now, Shen no longer dared to tell the truth.
In this village, not giving birth to a son would be looked down upon, and women would be divorced for committing the seven grounds for divorce.
Shen's family was also poor, and they would not care about her after she was divorced.
In addition, this dynasty had a low tolerance for divorced women, and their fate was generally not good.
Jiang Youzhen was not worried about her identity as a woman disguised as a man. After all, surviving was the most important thing now.
As for future marriage, she doesn't even consider it now, as the original owner is only thirteen years old.
Erya Jiang Chun handed over a coarse porcelain bowl with a few cracks on the edge.
Jiang Youzhen took it and looked at it. She blurted out, "Why is it pot washing water?"
In the turbid and burnt black water, a few rice grains were vaguely swaying, and it was even paler than the water used to wash the pot.
"You! This is made from the leftover rice crust from the dinner that came to our house yesterday. Mom begged grandma for a long time before she agreed to make porridge for you."
Si Ya was more aggressive than her two gentle sisters. When she heard this, she glared at her.
In her eyes, Jiang Youzhen was just ungrateful.
"I never saw you dislike drinking black porridge before, but now you dislike rice porridge."
As she spoke, she took out a piece of maltose that was about to melt from her bosom, "Here! Chunya gave it to me, but I couldn't bear to eat it. I know you have a tasteless mouth, so I'll give it to you to sweeten it up."
As she spoke, she stuffed it into Jiang Youzhen's mouth. Jiang Youzhen's face immediately wrinkled into a bitter melon. What's that taste?
There was no sweetness at all. The candy seemed to have been left for a long time, and it was covered with a lot of grass clippings and dirt, which was a bit sticky.
"Fourth sister, you picked it up, right?" Jiang Youzhen couldn't help but ask.
I wanted to vomit, but I was afraid that the little girl would be sad. After all, she meant well.
Si Ya nodded nonchalantly, "When Chunya went to the toilet, the candy fell on the ground. She didn't want it anymore and said she gave it to me."
Jiang Youzhen: ...Is it too late to vomit now?
"Erlang, where did you get the silver? Even one ounce? You don't know, grandma almost cut you into pieces.
If the head of the village hadn't come by, grandma wouldn't have given you that money to treat your illness."
San Ya knew that the family was poor, but the poorest was the second branch.
If Erlang had money, he would not go to work as a temporary worker at the Wang family in the village.
If you don't do odd jobs, you won't get hit on the head by a flower pot falling from the shelf.
The Wang family was a wealthy family with over 100 acres of land, but Mr. Wang was a very stingy person.
Temporary workers who worked at his house were never provided with meals, and their wages were low and often in arrears.
His family doesn't even let the donkey rest, let alone do odd jobs, so most people don't want to go.
Jiang Youzhen used chopsticks to stir the bowl, but couldn't see many rice grains.
Forget it, just drink it as boiled water!
The back of his head felt cool, probably because the pills had taken effect. It didn't hurt as much as before, and Jiang Youzhen felt much better.
"It's not mine, it's Fourth Aunt's. I saw her sneaking around once, and it turned out she was trying to hide some silver."
Jiang Youzhen betrayed Fourth Aunt without hesitation. This woman was unusually cruel, so he made her pay.
The original owner was also honest. If it were her, she would just go along with it without any psychological burden.
Because on weekdays, the fourth aunt often bullied the second wife and instigated them in front of the old lady. Several children had suffered from this woman.
