Black Lotus is reborn. Hush! Just lie down and be quiet.

Xia Qingqing and Song Chunlan went to the kitchen to cook. Xiao Yingyue took out her favorite beef jerky, stuffed it into Zhuang Hongye's hand, and said with a bright smile: "Here you go."

"Thank you."

Zhuang Hongye curled the corner of her mouth slightly, tore off a piece of dried meat, stuffed it into her mouth, and chewed it slowly.

"Sister, do you watch TV?"

Xiaoyu approached and asked, his big eyes were particularly clear. Zhuang Hongye could see his peculiarity at a glance, and her heart softened, and she softened her voice: "Okay."

“This is very nice.”

Xiaoyu skillfully switched the channel to "The Mole's Story". The warm colorful pictures were very healing. Zhuang Hongye was watching it casually at first, but gradually he was attracted and started to watch it with Xiaoyu.

"Sister Qingqing, when do we eat?"

The aroma of food wafted out, making Xiao Yingyue drool. She no longer had the heart to use the sewing machine and ran to the kitchen to see if there was anything to eat.

"Wow, sweet and sour pork ribs, I'll have one."

"It's just out of the pot, it's hot, go slowly!"

Before Song Chunlan finished speaking, Xiao Yingyue picked up a piece and stuffed it into her mouth. Although it was very hot, she still finished it stubbornly.

Sweet and sour pork ribs

Xia Qingqing served out a large plate of braised large intestines, which were braised yesterday. Zhuang Hongye liked to eat pig offal, as well as eels, turtles and snakes. This girl had completely opposite tastes to Xiao Yingyue.

Xiao Yingyue seems to be very brave, but actually she doesn't dare to eat many things, such as eels, snakes, turtles, bullfrogs, and eggs (live eggs). She doesn't dare to eat them.

Zhuang Hongye, however, only likes to eat these, and she also likes to eat all kinds of offal.

"It's time to eat. Yingyue, go and serve the food!"

Xia Qingqing fried a plate of sweet potato leaves and asked Xiao Yingyue to set the table.

"It's not convenient to buy vegetables on rainy days. Just eat something today. I'll make you something delicious tomorrow." Xia Qingqing said with a smile and placed the braised large intestine in front of Zhuang Hongye.

“There are a lot of dishes.”

Zhuang Hongye felt it was a very rich meal. She had not eaten such a sumptuous meal for a long, long time. Usually she either cooked noodles or stir-fried dishes. Her cooking skills were very poor and even dogs would not eat her stir-fried dishes. Occasionally, she would go to a restaurant for a feast.

"Would you like some orange juice?"

Xia Qingqing took out orange juice from the refrigerator and asked. Zhuang Hongye nodded and handed the cup to her. After it was full, she picked it up and took a sip. It was sour, sweet and icy, and really delicious.

"Welcome Hongye home, cheers!"

Xia Qingqing raised her glass. The bright and warm smile on her face made Zhuang Hongye's heart even warmer. She felt that she was about to drown. If this continued, she would not be willing to leave.

After dinner, Song Chunlan took the initiative to clean up the kitchen, and Xia Qingqing took Zhuang Hongye to the room to talk.

"Hongye, what I said is true. Maybe what I dreamed about was our past life. In the dream, you died to save me, and after I was released from prison, I died together with my enemy..."

Xia Qingqing told Zhuang Hongye about their past lives in detail. Zhuang Hongye became more and more moved and she believed it.

Many details about her living habits can only be known by living with her and cannot be made up out of thin air.

"How many people did I kill?" Zhuang Hongye asked seriously.

"Sixteen. He Huaqiang's family reunited during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Only one daughter-in-law and son-in-law were away on business." Xia Qingqing replied.

Zhuang Hongye looked regretful. Two of them actually escaped. What a pity.

Her goal is to kill the entire family, leaving no one alive!

"I'll help you kill them!" Xia Qingqing promised.

"No, thank you!"

Zhuang Hongye refused, she couldn't implicate Qingqing.

Anyway, she is dying soon. If she takes revenge before she dies, she can go to the underworld and reunite with her family in peace.

Xia Qingqing smiled and said nothing more. She would help anyway.

"Tomorrow morning I will..."

Zhuang Hongye wanted to say that she would leave tomorrow, but was interrupted by Xia Qingqing: "You see, my shop is too busy, why don't you stay and help me with the work? I won't pay you, but I will provide food, accommodation, and medical treatment. How about it?"

Xia Qingqing deliberately said that she would not pay the salary. What Zhuang Hongye feared most was owing favors to others.

Zhuang Hongye hesitated. She was not interested in curing her illness as it was incurable. But she really liked the atmosphere of the Xia family. Many people sat around a table eating, talking and laughing. This feeling of warmth was what she longed for.

"I know you can operate a sewing machine, so it's settled. I'll take you to your room."

Xia Qingqing dragged her to the third floor, where Song Chunlan was making the bed. Seeing them, she smiled gently and said, "It will be ready soon. I have washed the mat and blanket."

A few days ago, Xia Qingqing vacated an empty room on the third floor and cleaned it up with Song Chunlan. They also bought a mat, a blanket, and toiletries, all for Zhuang Hongye.

"Thank you."

Zhuang Hongye's voice was much softer than when she first arrived home, and her aloof and cold temperament also faded, and she seemed to have warmer feelings.

"Why are you being so polite? We're all family from now on."

Song Chunlan smiled, made the bed quickly, and went to get a washbasin, slippers, a toothbrush, and an electric fan.

Xia Qingqing ran downstairs to pour a glass of water, dripped half a drop of spiritual liquid into it, ran upstairs and handed it to Zhuang Hongye: "Drink it!"

Zhuang Hongye took the water and drank it in one gulp, feeling a little unsatisfied. The water was really delicious.

"Go to bed early, you have to work tomorrow morning!"

Xia Qingqing patted her on the shoulder gently, took Song Chunlan out, and closed the door considerately.

Zhuang Hongye yawned and felt more and more sleepy. She climbed onto the bed and soon fell into a deep sleep. She dreamed of her father, mother, brothers and sisters, all dressed beautifully, standing in a row and smiling at her.

"Where have you been? I missed you so much, why didn't you come pick me up?"

Zhuang Hongye rushed over crying. She wanted to be with her parents and siblings. She didn’t want to be alone.

"Hongye, go back. This is not the place for you to be. You need to live well, dear!"

Her parents and siblings pushed her away, and then a beam of light shone on them, and soon the people disappeared, leaving her alone again.

"Dad, mom..."

Zhuang Hongye murmured, two lines of tears flowing from the corners of her eyes, wetting the pillowcase.

Zhuang Hongye slept very soundly that night. When the morning came, she felt her body was sticky. It was not surprising, because she tended to sweat when she slept, and she often woke up in the morning with wet clothes and cold body.

She got dressed and went downstairs. Xia Qingqing was in the kitchen cooking breakfast. Seeing her, she smiled and said, "The hot water is ready. Go take a shower. After that, come and have some eel noodles."

"Ok!"

Zhuang Hongye nodded and couldn't help swallowing.

She hasn’t eaten eel noodles for a long time.

Eel Noodles

The Xia family had a very sumptuous breakfast today. Everyone had a bowl of eel noodles. Xia Qingqing got up early on purpose and went to the market to buy eels. She bought some extra and kept the rest in the space so that she could eat them anytime in the future.

"Yingyue, your large intestine noodles!"

The dish cooked for Xiao Yingyue was large intestine noodles, and the braised large intestine left over from last night was just right as a topping.

Large intestine noodles,

"Sister Qingqing, it would be great if you were my mother!"

Xiao Yingyue took a big mouthful of noodles, feeling so happy that she wanted to recognize her mother. Xia Qingqing knocked her on the head and said angrily, "I can't give birth to a daughter as old as you!"

Everyone laughed, even Zhuang Hongye curled her lips slightly. She finished a big bowl of eel noodles. Her appetite was surprisingly good. Since she got sick, her appetite had been getting worse and worse, and most of the time she could only eat a little.
