Red apricots make spring

Chapter 18
Another two weeks passed in the blink of an eye, and I calculated with my fingers that Wen Rou had stayed in Zhao's Mansion for nearly a whole month after she traveled through. During this time, she was working except for eating and sleeping. Not only firewood, but also endless water.Fortunately, other than Mrs. Wang, the people in the big kitchen saw that she was hard-working and clever, and their attitude towards her gradually became gentler. Although Mrs. Liu kept a straight face as usual, her scolding towards her was also obvious. Much less, even if I sometimes see her talking with Xiaohuan, I just close my eyes and pretend not to see it.

Rourou is basically satisfied with her current life. After all, she is trying to improve her interpersonal relationship, and she has seen some results. The only thing that makes her unhappy is that the third girl's interest in carved candied haws did not last long. Three days Afterwards, she got tired of it, and never asked Ling'er to buy candied haws for her again, forcibly strangling Wenrou's way of making money that had just sprouted in her heart in her infancy.

Life is never easy!Rourou made a pretentious literary accent in her heart, put down the ax in her hand, and sighed.

"Sister—Sister Ruhua—" Xiaohuanhua flew over from a distance like a butterfly.

Wen Rou heard the shout, raised her head and looked at Xiaohuan with a smile, thinking that being young is good!Unlimited vitality!Although her body is not very old, her mentality has already matured, and she can no longer act childishly like Xiaohuan.

"Run slower, didn't you fall a few days ago? Why, forget the pain when the scar is healed?" Rourou handed her handkerchief to her to wipe the sweat, and said with a smile: "What is it, it's worth your shouting Is it so earth-shattering?"

"Guess!" Xiaohuan smiled and looked at her while wiping off her sweat.

"Is the monthly money paid out? You can buy snacks again!" Rou Rou knew that Mrs. Liu would leave ten cents a month for Xiaohuan to buy snacks, and estimated that these two days would also be the day when the monthly money should be paid out.

"No, no, guess again, it's about you."

Rourou heard that the matter was related to her, for some reason, her heart skipped a beat.So far, she hasn't encountered any good things at all. She wishes God would stop causing trouble for her. As long as she can live a peaceful and stable life, she will have to celebrate.

"I can't figure it out, so tell me!" Looking at Xiaohuan's smiling face, she thought that things wouldn't be too bad, right?
Xiaohuan couldn't keep her words in her heart, seeing that Wenrou couldn't figure it out, she told her straightforwardly: "Your mother came to see you!"

"What? My mother!" Wen Rou seemed to be struck by a bolt from the blue, and was suddenly stunned by this heavyweight news.mother!Hey!Does she still have a mother in this unknown world? !
"I met Mrs. Cai on the road, and she told me to bring you a message, saying that your mother is waiting for you at the west corner gate." Xiaohuan thought that gentle and numb expression was an overjoyed reaction, and hurriedly urged her: "Sister, hurry up!" Go, don't let the aunt stay long."

"Ah, okay, I see, I'll go..." Wen Rou hadn't recovered from the shock, she drifted forward like a wandering soul, and didn't realize that she was going in the wrong direction until Xiaohuan reminded her behind her , turned around, changed another path, and continued walking down in despair.

mother!Damn!Wenrou didn't know whether she should be happy or cry out loud!The reason why she was able to accept the fact that she traveled through in such a short period of time, and planned to live here with peace of mind, was because she had no relatives in her original world.Both her parents died in a car accident when she was very young. Her grandpa who was a chef brought her up, but just when she just graduated from school and was about to step into the society, her grandpa passed away due to illness, and she mourned. She mourned and cried for three days and three nights, but failed to bring her dearest grandfather back to life. From then on, she had to live alone.

After transmigrating into this world, she only thought of herself as a maid who died of her parents and was sold to the Zhao Mansion, and was going to continue living the lonely life she was used to, but at this time, God suddenly arranged for her A living mother!How should she face this?Because the woman called "mother" is clearly a stranger to her, that is Ruhua's mother, not her mother!

However, she currently occupies Ruhua's body, and that strange woman also has flesh and blood to her, so she should call that woman a mother. The difficulty is that she is not really Ruhua, and she doesn't know Ruhua at all The family's past, facing the most familiar stranger, she may show her feet if she is not careful in her response.

what to do?What should I do!Seeing that she was getting closer and closer to the West Corner Gate, Rourou felt more and more disturbed.Forget it, you can't hide anyway, so just go all out and adapt to the situation!She steadied her steps and calmed down, took a deep breath, put a smile on her face, and felt that there was nothing wrong with her, so she walked quickly to the west corner door with all her strength.

Stepping into the hut at the west corner gate, Ruan Rou saw a haggard-looking woman in a rough jacket sitting awkwardly on the kang bed at first sight. Come on with a sad smile.

"Mother!" Rourou tried her best to suppress the awkwardness in her heart, and called mother sweetly with a smile.The ancients married early, and Ruhua was only fourteen or fifteen years old. By calculation, the woman in front of her should not be more than 30 years old, but no matter how she looked at it, she felt that the wrinkles at the corners of the woman's eyes and the vicissitudes of life on her face concealed her reality. Age, it looks like 50 to [-] years old.

Hearing Ruan Rou's shout, the woman was stunned for some reason, and then came back to her senses after a while, and replied softly: "Hey!" Then she lowered her head and took a hand that was as rough as old bark. Wipe away the tears.

Seeing her crying, Rou Rou immediately panicked, and carefully recalled her words and deeds just now, and found nothing wrong, so why is this woman crying?Could it be that I haven't seen my daughter for too long, and I'm panicking?
"When you mother and daughter meet, the old lady won't stay here to get in the way. You chat slowly, chat slowly..." Mrs. Cai, who was sitting in the corner of the kang doing needlework, stood up and walked outside the house when she saw Wen Rou. They make room for speech.

"Thank you, Granny Cai." Rourou yelled at her back, then pressed down on the woman who was anxiously trying to stand up, and said with a smile: "Mother, sit down and talk, are you thirsty? I Pour you a bowl of water to drink."

Don't look at Wen Rou's appearance of talking and laughing, in fact, she is extremely nervous, and can only distract herself by talking and doing things non-stop, so as to calm herself down.

The woman was stunned again, this time she stared blankly at Rou Rou for a while, saw that she had found an empty tea bowl, and was about to pour water from the teapot on the kang table, so she quickly waved her hand and said: "No, mother is not thirsty, Rou Son, sit down, Mother has something to say to you."

Rouer? !Hearing this claim, the gentleness seemed to be struck by a thunderbolt from the blue sky. The hand holding the teapot and pouring water shook involuntarily, and the smile froze on his face because of being too surprised.
