The next day, Gong Xiaohua brought the things prepared for Xiao Hao'er and came to the dungeon of the Ministry of Justice early in the morning.
Medicines for cold and gold sore medicine were secretly stuffed to Xiao Hao's mother when she bid farewell to Xiao Hao.
"Xiao Hao's mother, these are medicines for treating colds and external injuries, and the effect is still good. The cold medicine is in pill form. If you accidentally catch a cold, remember to take it three times a day, two pills at a time; the milk-like one is medicine for treating external injuries. If you get injured, apply a little on the wound and don't get it wet for three days."
Then she placed the waterproof cloth behind her directly in front of Xiao Hao's mother and said to her, "This is a waterproof cloth that can effectively prevent rainwater from getting wet when it rains. Make a small cloak for Xiao Hao and your family to wear when it rains or when you are on the road, it will be more comfortable."
Xiao Hao's mother did not expect that those who had flattered her family in the past and gained a lot of benefits from her family would not come to see them when they suffered such a great misfortune. On the contrary, they all hated to stay away from them, for fear of getting involved.
How ironic it is. The one who helped them now turned out to be a jailer whom they had never met before and whom they had looked down on as a lowly person.
The fact proves that these people often have the purest hearts, and she felt remorseful and regretful about her previous perceptions.
Looking at the medicine bottle in her hand, her eyes moistened uncontrollably, and the long suppressed gloom was relieved at this moment.
"Miss Gong, thank you. You are the kindest young lady I have ever seen. Meeting you is the best gift from heaven to us."
After that, she pulled Xiao Hao to Gong Xiaohua and said to her son, "Xiao Hao, kowtow to your sister Gong to show your gratitude for saving your life."
"Sister, Xiao Hao kowtowed to you. Sister's great kindness, Xiao Hao will always keep in mind." He was about to kneel down.
Gong Xiaohua quickly held up Xiao Hao and stroked his head, "Little Xiao Hao, no need to do that. If it were someone else, sister would still do the same. I just hope that you will keep trying hard to live on no matter how difficult the situation is in the future."
"I will, sister."
"Well, sister should go too. Take care, you guys."
"Miss Gong, take care."
"Sister, take care."
After Xiao Hao and his mother left, Gong Xiaohua was not in a very good mood for the rest of the day.
Everyone guessed that Gong Xiaohua was in a bad mood, so they all consciously did not bother her.
When Gong Xiaohua returned home that night, her mother was in the kitchen, and her cheap younger brother was gnawing on a braised pig's trotter at the small stone table in the yard.
Gong Xiaohua found that her mother was particularly happy tonight, with her mouth grinning all the time, especially when she saw Gong Xiaohua come back.
"Xiaohua, what time did you leave this morning? I didn't see you when I got up."
"I went for early training."
"Oh, your dad is not coming back today either. Hurry up and wash up, let's prepare for dinner."
Now the Gong family's three meals a day are mainly stir-fries. Gong's mother has learned to cook some home-style dishes under Gong Xiaohua's guidance, and the taste is not bad.
"Xiaohua, Aunt Zhou introduced a very well-conditioned young master to you today. It is said that he is also very handsome. I told Aunt Zhou that when you are off duty, you will meet the man to get to know each other."
Caught off guard, Gong Xiaohua spit out a mouthful of food.
Mother, your efficiency is quite fast.
This Dayi Dynasty practiced polygamy. Just thinking that if one day I have to compete for favor with a pile of women with a scumbag, she dare not imagine that she would beat the scumbag to death.
"Mother, I'm so young. I refuse to go."
"You child, what nonsense you are saying. You are already 15 years old. Some girls your age have had children already. You go take a look first, then get married in a year or two."
"Anyway, I refuse to go, and I hereby officially declare my attitude, I, Gong Xiaohua, have decided to remain unmarried for life. So mother please stop urging me, it's useless even if you do."
Gong's mother and Gong Xiaonan were startled by her bold and aggressive words. Could her daughter (her sister) have been beaten silly?
"Xiaohua, are you still thinking about Staff Officer Li? If you really don't want to go, mother is willing to sacrifice her face and go ask him to marry you, what do you think?"
It's Staff Officer Li again. Can she pass this hurdle?
"Mother, you'd better not, or you'll get beaten when you go back."
"I'm serious. After Xiaonan gets married, I'll buy a house and move out to live alone."
"With your monthly salary, you won't be able to buy a house even if you save for a lifetime."
"I have it all figured out. I will perform well in the Ministry of Justice to fight for promotion and raise in the future."
Gong's mother watched as her daughter talked nonsense with naive innocence, and she really didn't have the heart to set her straight. Those good positions all require recommendations. Your Gong family has been digging in the dirt for generations.
"But Xiaohua, the court rules that if a woman is still unmarried at the age of 18, she will be forced to marry whoever the court assigns her to. If you don't choose in advance now, you will be leftover to those assigned by the court in the future."
Thunder rumbled and thunder struck.
"Mother, how come I don't know there is such a rule? Are you tricking me?"
"Why would I trick you? Ask your brother if that's true or not."
Gong Xiaohua turned her head to look at her brother, and saw him nodding at her.
Gong Xiaohua felt her mind was about to collapse.
That is to say, there are only 3 years left before she has to marry? And the person she marries either chooses for herself or is randomly assigned by the court?
The food lost its flavor. She dropped her bowl and chopsticks, she needed quiet to calm down.
"Mother, I'm full. I'll leave first, you take your time eating." Then left dispiritedly towards her room.
"So, Xiaohua, are you still going to meet that young master Aunt Zhou introduced to you?"
Gong Xiaohua felt like she had used up all her strength and gritted her teeth, "I'll go."
Leaving Madam Gong and Gong Xiaonan staring at each other speechlessly.
The next day, Gong Xiaohua still got up very early, but her mental state was not very good, apparently yesterday's incident gave her no small impact.
As for marrying off, she thought about all kinds of possibilities last night.
If she happened to marry someone, thinking that after getting married she would cook, take care of children, serve her husband and in-laws everyday, Agent Gong shook her head, indicating she could not do it.
If she doesn't get married, what if she gets forcibly married off to a horse thief or an ugly old widower?
Agent Gong panicked, resulting in nightmares all night.
Finally, she gave up thinking about it. At worst, when she is about to turn 18, she will flee to the deep mountains and forests and become a wild man, after all her wilderness survival skills are not bad.
That's it, Agent Gong felt alive again. After simply tidying herself up and settling her mood, she started a new day.
The next day, Gong Xiaohua brought the things prepared for Xiao Hao'er and came to the dungeon of the Ministry of Justice early in the morning.
