He was betrayed at the beginning, from a cake seller to a wealthy person

Hearing that Lu Yan was not feeling well and that Zhang Chang would not attend the afternoon class, Dian Dian ran to Lu Ji.

Lu Yan didn't look uncomfortable, but she was not very energetic. Zhang Chang came and stared at her, but she didn't react at all. He just stood up and greeted her: "Master Zhang is here, what can I eat?"

Zhang Chang casually ordered a cup of fruit tea: "I heard that you are not feeling well. I came to see you. How are you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Lu Yan waved her hand and told Spring Equinox to do it, and she didn't have to do it herself. He turned around with a troubled face. In fact, she couldn't tell whether it was uncomfortable or not. If discomfort was on a scale of 1-10, and the larger the number, the more uncomfortable it was. Then her discomfort was π, which was not serious but never-ending.

Zhang Chang saw Lu Yan's ugly expression and quickly asked her to sit down: "Sit down, sit down, are you feeling uncomfortable? Can I get you a glass of hot water?"

Lu Yan shook her head: "No, I have nothing to do, I just don't want to move. I won't entertain you."

Zhang Chang nodded quickly and told her to rest.

In fact, Zhang Chang wanted to see if there was anything he could do to help, but he couldn't help. Lu Yan didn't pay attention to him. He was afraid of disturbing Lu Yan's rest and didn't dare to take the initiative to talk to him. He felt uncomfortable sitting there, and after a while he gone.

When Lu Sheng returned home from school, Lu Yan looked like she did yesterday again.

"Why can't you get better?" Lu Sheng frowned: "Would you like to go to the medical clinic again?"

Lu Yan shook her head: "Too lazy to move."

"You should go to bed early today. If things don't get better tomorrow, let's go to the hospital again." Lu Sheng said.

Lu Yan could only nod.

Another day when she went to bed early, but this time Lu Yan woke up early in the morning. She didn't know whether it was a nightmare or a physical discomfort, but when she suddenly opened her eyes, the sky outside the window was still filled with stars.

She sat on the bed, feeling something was wrong underneath her. An ominous premonition filled her mind.

Lu Yan reached down and touched a hand of blood.

Oh, my aunt, who had been away for a whole year, came to visit.

She hadn't come here for a whole year, so she completely ignored this incident and had no preparation at all.

This was ancient times, and there were no tampons, sanitary napkins, or even toilet paper that she was used to, only menstrual belts. And you have to sew the menstrual belt yourself.

It was late at night and everyone was asleep. She saw blood in her pants and went to wake Mrs. Xu to ask for a menstrual belt. She was too embarrassed.

Lu Yan thought for a while and told herself to calm down first. Calm down and do it slowly.

Lu Yan took out a piece of underwear from the cabinet that she had washed and put away before. She cut it with scissors, folded it a few times, and sewed it into a crooked, thick rectangle. She sewed two straps on the front and back. I bought a very simple and ugly version of the menstrual belt. I took off my dirty pants again, got a new pair of pants, and put on my homemade menstrual belt and new pants.

Lu Yan was going to wash the stained sheets and dirty pants. The blood had to be washed as soon as it was first stained. The longer it stayed on the fabric, the harder it would be to wash it off.

But it was the beginning of winter, and the water drawn from the well was still cold, making Lu Yan tremble just by looking at it. She could only go to the kitchen to boil water again, planning to mix it a little to make the water less cold.

Lu Yan was fussing around in the courtyard, and Lu Sheng also woke up. As soon as he opened his eyes and saw the light outside, he thought Lu Yan was feeling uncomfortable again, so he got up and left the house.

When Lu Sheng came out, Lu Yan was boiling water in the kitchen. Lu Sheng couldn't understand, so he leaned against the door frame and asked Lu Yan, "What are you doing?"

"Boiling water." Lu Yan moved a stool and sat in the kitchen waiting. She doesn't need to boil it, and she doesn't need to drink it. She just needs to heat it up a little and watch her steam.

Lu Sheng was confused: "Why did the water suddenly boil at night?"

"I didn't expect it to come so suddenly." Lu Yan was sleepy and tired at the moment. She sat here with strength, her mental state was a little better, and she hummed two lines after saying: "Love comes too soon." It's like a tornado, I can't escape the storm circle, I can't think anymore, I can't think anymore, I don't, I don't, I can't~"

Lu Sheng: "..."

Lu Sheng: "What can't you do?"

Lu Yan then sang: "I can't miss you anymore~"

Lu Sheng: "..."

Lu Sheng almost laughed out of anger. He took a deep breath and asked patiently: "Why are you boiling water? Do you want me to help you? Are you feeling uncomfortable again?"

"I'll boil the water and wash things." Lu Yan said, "It's none of your business. Just go back and sleep."

"If you feel uncomfortable, go back to sleep and I'll help you wash it!" Lu Sheng said, rolling up his sleeves and coming to help.

Let Lu Sheng help her wash her aunt's pants? She didn't want her death to be more complete.

"You don't need to help me!" Lu Yan chased Lu Sheng away: "It's really none of your business, go back and sleep!"

Lu Sheng was kicked out of the kitchen by Lu Yan and had to go back to his room. On the way back, he glanced at the washtub Lu Yan placed next to the well. In addition to what looked like a white undershirt, there seemed to be a bed sheet.

Lu Sheng was puzzled. Why was Lu Yan washing the sheets at night?

Lu Yan's water was almost boiled, so she took it out and mixed it with the cold well water and a basin of slightly mild water. Don't wash blood with water at too high a temperature. The protein will be denatured at 60 degrees Celsius, destroying the protein structure, and it will stick to the cloth and won't come off.

The newly stained blood stains were easy to wash away. Lu Yan poured water on them, hung the sheets to dry in the yard, and took the pants back to dry in her own room. It was getting late, so she took a new sheet from the cabinet, pulled off the pillow cover and spread it under her body to use as a temporary mattress. (Ancient people also had soft pillows)

The next morning, as soon as Xu got up, she saw Lu Yan's sheets hanging in the courtyard, and her heart skipped a beat. She knocked on Lu Yan's door. Lu Yan hadn't gotten up yet after struggling all night, so she vaguely shouted "come in".

Mrs. Xu walked into Lu Yan's house and looked at Lu Yan's underwear hanging in the house, which confirmed her guess. She looked towards the bed. Lu Yan was not yet fully awake. She was half asleep and mumbled in a daze: "Mom, what's going on?"

Mrs. Xu walked to the bed and asked her in a low voice: "Yan'er, have you come to Guishui?"

Lu Yan suddenly woke up, sat up suddenly, and held Xu's hand. Her whole mood was extremely complicated. She was speechless and choked for a long time before she said: "Mom, help me."
