Lu Ling was still leaning on the pillow, and Haitang was feeding her porridge.
Lu Ling took a few bites and suddenly said, "Begonia, go buy me five or six candles later."
"Miss, what do you want a candle for?"
Could it be used for heating again?
Of course Lu Ling wouldn't say anything.
Half of me is a human, who needs to eat whole grains and live like a normal person, and the other half is a ghost, whose yin energy has been depleted due to injury and needs to be replenished.
Although candles are not the best thing to replenish yin energy, it is much easier to obtain candles than to find a mass grave to sleep in.
Before Haitang got the answer, she suddenly heard footsteps coming from outside the ward. The medicine boy led someone to the door: "Young Master, the person you are looking for is inside."
A slightly hoarse voice said: "Thank you."
Lu Ling and Haitang were both on the bed as if they had been struck by lightning.
Even when Lu Ling touched the wound, he forgot about the pain for a moment.
Haitang quickly opened the door.
The moment she opened the door and saw the young man standing at the door, her eyes immediately turned red, and then her tears rolled down her cheeks as if they were free. Her body trembled, and then she knelt down with a plop and shouted in a trembling voice: "Master..."
Lu Cheng had a smile on his lips, but his eyebrows showed some excitement and joy.
The dimples at the corners of his mouth are particularly memorable.
He pulled Haitang up, and then looked at the hospital bed slightly nervously.
When the two siblings looked at each other, Lu Cheng's eyes suddenly turned red.
"A Cheng..."
Lu Ling felt that the young man in front of her gave her an unreal feeling.
She couldn't believe that she finally saw her brother for the original owner.
The original owner was only thirteen years old when she got married, and Lu Cheng was only ten years old and still small. When he carried her into the sedan chair, he was so tired that he was sweating profusely and his steps staggered.
But now, three years later, he is actually taller than Lu Ling. There is no trace of childishness on his face, but his voice is a little rough, which shows that he is still a teenager who is in the process of changing his voice.
He looks so delicate and handsome, with his eyebrows and eyes curved into a charming arc from time to time, especially the dimples at the corners of his mouth, which give people a refreshing feeling of being washed away by the clear springs of a mountain stream.
The only regret was that his eyes showed fatigue that was not appropriate for his age, making him look out of place among his peers.
Lu Cheng walked to Lu Ling's bedside in three steps. Looking at his sister's face as pale as paper, he was stunned for a moment, then suddenly half-knelt at Lu Ling's feet. With tears in his eyes, he shouted tremblingly: "Sister..."
Lu Ling had long forgotten the pain, leaned down slightly and pulled his arm, saying with choked words: "Get up quickly and wipe away your tears. You've grown so big..."
Haitang wiped her tears and went out quietly.
He stood up obediently and sat on the small stool next to him.
Lu Cheng's eyes couldn't help but fall on Lu Ling's gauze-wrapped chest, and something suddenly hit the tip of his heart.
The sadness and worry on his brows were so thick that he couldn't get rid of them. He held back his tears and asked, "Sister, why are you injured? Where is my brother-in-law?"
Lu Ling suppressed the surging emotions in his chest, showed a gentle smile, and said, "I just accidentally fell, it's not serious. Your brother-in-law is at the inn."
"Did you fall? Where did you fall? Why was it so serious?"
"It's not that serious," Lu Ling smiled and shook his head, "Don't worry, it will be fine in a few days."
Lu Cheng looked at Lu Ling's face as pale as paper, and couldn't help but feel worried in his heart.
But he didn't want to get too emotional at this time, so he changed the subject: "Brother-in-law, why isn't he here to take care of you?"
Lu Ling did not tell his brother and mother about the misfortunes of the former owner, not wanting them to worry about him.
She smiled and shook her head: "He has something wrong."
Lu Cheng nodded and asked, "Sister, do you have a fever? Why are you so cold?"
Lu Ling shook his head and said, "You don't have to worry about this. Although I'm cold, it's not a disease and it won't affect my normal life."
When Lu Cheng heard this, he knew that Sister A didn't want to say more, so he looked at her suspiciously, and then asked how she had been in the past three years.
Lu Ling said: "I have been a little sick in the past three years. It's not a serious illness. I just can't blow the wind or bump around, so I can't go back to see you."
Thinking that the original owner couldn't go back even after his own father died, Lu Ling felt sore in his heart.
In fact, Lu Cheng also wondered why his sister had not returned home in the past three years.
It is unfilial to not even go back to see your biological father after he dies.
But now seeing Lu Ling's face so pale, her body temperature so low, and the fake letter Song Wenzhou sent back, Lu Cheng really believed that Lu Ling had been so sick that she couldn't even get out of bed in the past three years.
So he felt even more sorry for his sister.
"Sister, why do you and your mother love to get sick so much?" He choked up again as he spoke.
Thinking of their mother at home, both siblings felt heartbroken.
Lu Ling swallowed back his tears and quickly asked, "How is mother lately?"
Lu Cheng stood up and helped Lu Ling wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, slightly dimpled his eyes, and said, "Sister, after my mother heard that you were going home, most of her illness was cured. But now you suddenly stay here again. , Mother is worried again. So she sent me to pick you and my brother-in-law up in person."
Lu Ling lowered his eyes and glanced at the injury on his chest, and said with a wry smile: "My injury will take at least a month before I can move around. Now my mother will definitely be worried again. You have to go back and find an excuse to make your mother feel at ease."
Lu Cheng nodded and said, "Sister, I will accompany you in two days and then go back."
He looked at the increasingly beautiful woman in front of him, and his heart felt sour yet mixed with a hint of sweetness.
After not seeing each other for three years, my sister has changed somewhat. She has become much more mature and beautiful.
His memory still stopped three years ago.
At that time, the prefect who had jurisdiction over the entire Weizhou went to the Lu family to propose marriage.
My father was still alive and asked my mother to ask Lu Ling.
Lu Ling was still a little girl, and her face turned red with embarrassment.
Seeing that their daughter had no objection, Father Lu and Mother Lu agreed to the marriage.
Lu Ling knew that he was getting married, and with anticipation and reluctance in his heart, he went to look for his younger brother Acheng.
Acheng asked: "I'm married, when will sister come back?"
Lu Ling said: "I come back every year and festival."
Lu Cheng nodded and said, "Sister, if my brother-in-law treats you badly, I will go to Weicheng to take you home."
Lu Cheng blushed and scolded: "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm just engaged, not married yet."
The ten-year-old boy felt sorry for his sister from the bottom of his heart.
When he sent Lu Ling into the Song family's sedan chair, he deliberately showed a ferocious look on his face and threatened Song Wenzhou: "If you dare to bully my sister, I will definitely go to the Song family to settle the score with you!"
At that time, the adults around him were all amused by him.
Who would have thought that Lu Cheng's words would become a prophecy.
However, the original owner’s suffering was unknown to her family, who cared most about her.
