Famine Bride: Marry into the best in-laws and win

Chapter 289 Help

Lin Luoxia sighed and shook her head, the look on her face becoming more and more self-blaming, "It's all my fault. I accidentally sprained my ankle."

Mrs. Shen opened her mouth and wanted to blame her, but seeing that her ankle was seriously injured, she didn't know what to say.

Just when she was about to accept her fate, suddenly, a familiar voice sounded.

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, why are you sitting on the ground?"

Mrs. Shen suddenly looked up and when she saw Lu Huaiyuan beside Shen Minghua, she became excited and ran up to pull Shen Minghua.

"Minghua, Huaiyuan, you're here just in time. Please help me get my mother to the county hospital. I really can't find anyone, so I can only ask for your help."

Shen Minghua was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized that something had happened to her aunt. She quickly patted Sister Shen on the back and said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry. Let's talk while we walk."

The old lady had taken her in, and although she had also done a lot of work for the Shen family, to be honest, who would take in an outsider for no reason in a famine year?

Lin Luoxia was still sitting on the ground, with her eyes lowered to hide her emotions. No one knew what she was thinking.

Lu Huaiyuan, who was standing aside, glanced at the person on the ground and frowned slightly, but quickly returned to normal.

Mrs. Shen took Shen Minghua for a long time before she realized that Lu Huaiyuan had been standing there motionless and had no intention of helping at all.

She was a little embarrassed, but for the sake of her mother-in-law, she had to bite the bullet and ask for help.

"Minghua, look at this..."

Shen Minghua also knew that this matter was urgent and that it would not be possible to rely on just the two women.

She was extremely conflicted, but in the end, because of the kindness the Shen family had shown her, she walked over and begged Lu Huaiyuan.

"Brother Huaiyuan, can you...come with me to rescue my aunt?"

Lu Huaiyuan frowned and didn't say yes or no.

Shen Minghua bit her lip, looked up at him, and wanted to grab his hand, "Brother Huaiyuan..."

She knew that this man didn't like her at all. He had never touched her even since they got married, and he didn't like her touch either.

He married her so that she could take care of their two children.

But... now that they are married, she just wants him to help her relatives.

Lu Huaiyuan took a step back calmly, avoiding her hand, his whole body exuding alienation, "Let's go."

Shen Minghua's body froze. He... still didn't want her to touch him...

Seeing him nod in agreement, Mrs. Shen finally breathed a sigh of relief and hurried home, "Let's go, let's go. Thank you so much for this matter, you and your wife..."

She really didn't think that at the critical moment, Shen Minghua and Lu Huaiyuan would come to help their Shen family.

It seems that I should be nicer to others in the future.

Several people rushed to the Shen family, leaving only Lin Luoxia sitting on the ground with a sprained ankle.

She watched the figures of several people leaving quickly, and simply stood up and walked towards home step by step.

Shen family.

In order to stabilize the old lady's condition, Xu Manyue secretly fed her one of the health-enhancing pills that the system had rewarded her with.

This kind of medicine can slowly repair hidden injuries in the body, but it cannot save lives.

In the old lady's case, the best we can do is to save her life. As for other conditions, it depends on subsequent timely treatment.

The system only gave her three pills, she ate one, and now gave the old lady another one, leaving only the last one.

Each person can only take one in his lifetime. If you take more, it will have no effect.

Xu Manyue looked at the old lady's increasingly paler face and the two brothers of the Shen family who had not returned yet.

The uneasiness in her heart gradually grew, and she became extremely worried, fearing that the old lady would be difficult to save this time.

Suddenly, there was a noise outside the door.

"Third sister-in-law, third sister-in-law, I'm here, I'm here to find someone, how is mother?"

Mrs. Shen pulled Shen Minghua and rushed home, with Lu Huaiyuan following closely beside them.

When Xu Manyue looked up, she saw the man breaking in. She was slightly startled. Why did this man come?

After entering the room, Lu Huaiyuan paused and his eyes fell on Xu Manyue's increasingly bright and charming face and her bulging belly, with a hint of complexity flashing in his eyes.

Over the past year or so, the two have rarely seen each other.

Unexpectedly, she not only became more and more beautiful, her complexion also improved a lot, and she was about to give birth.

If only... Unfortunately, there were no ifs...

Seeing Xu Manyue was a little surprised, Mrs. Shen gave her some explanation, "Third sister-in-law, don't delay any longer. Your eldest brother and the others have gone to the public office to collect the public grain, and we can't find anyone."

"Luckily, I met Minghua and his wife. They were willing to come and help, and together we took Mom to the county hospital."

Xu Manyue subconsciously glanced at Lu Huaiyuan. Based on her understanding of him, this man was not someone who loved to help others.

But now there is no time to waste, so they can only trust him.

Xu Manyue supported herself on her waist and stood up, looking up at the two of them, "I'm sorry to trouble you two this time."

Lu Huaiyuan's eyes fell on her face again, and he paused for a moment, then said, "It's not a bother."

After saying that, he started pulling the cart, and together with Shen Dasao and Shen Minghua, he put the old lady on the cart and hurried to the county hospital.

Before leaving, Xu Manyue took twenty yuan and some food coupons from the house and stuffed them into Shen Dasao's arms.

"Sister-in-law, take it first. When my brother and the others come back, I will ask them to find you."

This money and tickets were sent back by Shen Jingming this month, and she hasn't touched them yet.

"it is good."

After watching the few people walk away, Xu Manyue sipped her lips, but she still felt worried.

The old lady's condition is serious, and no one knows it better than her. I just hope she is safe.

However, why didn't Lin Luoxia show up?

Xu Manyue walked out of the house and looked around, but still didn't see the man. Her sister-in-law didn't mention this when she left.

Could it be that Lin Luoxia went to the commune to find Boss Shen and the others?

It was getting darker and darker until it was evening.

Now Xu Manyue is the only one left at home in the Shen family. She can't do much with her big belly, and can only help with cooking and feeding the chickens and pigs.

Lin Luoxia still hadn't come back. Xu Manyue always felt that this person should not have gone to the commune to look for someone, otherwise he should have come back long ago.

In the evening, Shen Baozhu returned home from school. She looked around and saw Xu Manyue cooking alone in the kitchen. She blinked and asked, "Auntie, where is my mother?"

In the past, at this time, as long as she was not working, she could always see her mother when she came home from school.

Xu Manyue paused while cutting vegetables and shook her head. "Your mother went out and hasn't come back yet."

Shen Baozhu was stunned. "That's not right. My mother should be at home at this time."

She looked around and searched again, "Where are grandma and aunt? Why aren't they here?"
