Chapter 219 The Stepping Stone of the Writers of the Republic of China 4
Because Su Lan only knew from the original owner's memory that her mother had a bad heart and could not do heavy work, the doctor did not find out the specific symptoms.
"Okay," Tuanzi quickly scanned Su's mother with the system and gave an answer a minute later, "Host, she has cardiomyopathy. With current medical technology, she won't be able to successfully undergo surgery."
Su Lan felt a little heartache when she heard this. It was the original owner who was afraid of her mother's departure. She patted her chest and continued to communicate with Tuanzi with her spiritual sense, "Help me find out if there is any elixir that can be used for treatment in the system mall."
"Well, this porridge is delicious. You work so hard. You still have to cook for your mother after class every day." Su's mother burst into tears while drinking. Su Lan took the tissue on the table and wiped her tears.
"It's not hard. As long as my mother and I are together forever, every day will be happy."
Su Lan smiled and expressed what was in the original owner's heart. In the previous life without the interference of the Wenhao system, Su's mother also died of illness, but the original owner did not feel that her mother was a burden or a nuisance. She loved her mother deeply.
An hour later, Su's mother urged her daughter to go back to bed as she had to go to school the next day. Su Lan did not insist on staying. She packed her lunch box and left the ward.
"Host, I found it, but it's a bit expensive. The restoration pill is worth ten points and can repair the original owner's mother's heart."
"Sure, help me redeem it," Su Lan thought of the protagonist's original wife, and an idea came to her mind. She narrowed her eyes, a sly smile playing on her lips: "Tuanzi, there's one more thing I need your help with. Use the points to restore Li Chunhong's memories of her past two lives. Remember, it must include all the memories of both lives!"
"Yeah, okay, host, are you planning to use her power to deal with the male protagonist?" Tuanzi asked curiously while busy operating the system.
"Well, you can say that, but it's not entirely correct. The original owner's greatest wish was to stay away from Baishiqiao, so I won't take the initiative to appear in front of him. As long as he doesn't dance in front of me, I will be the mastermind behind the development of the plot in this mission, and make him pay the price for what he did in his previous life." Su Lan said with a sneer.
She gently put the pill away, a cold glint in her eyes. Although her voice was calm and indifferent, she couldn't hide the anger deep in her heart.
Even if this was just a parallel world, as a Chinese, she would never allow any traitors to exist. For people like Bai Shiqiao who sold out their country for personal gain and betrayed their country and nation, she must make him receive the punishment he deserves.
"What about the literary giant system? When will we deal with it? Or do we have to wait until the hero's aura fades?"
"You don't need to overthink it. Wait until it shows up to assign the hero a task before discussing it. We can't alert the enemy now. If it escapes, the extra reward will be gone."
While Yiren and Yitong were still chatting, in a room in Meihua Village, Li Chunhong was lying on her wooden bed, tossing and turning, sweating profusely. Strange scenes and sounds kept flashing through her mind, making her feel very confused and uneasy.
In a half-awake state, she saw her husband cheating on her with a female classmate. She went to the school to seek justice and successfully severed ties with the family. With the help of the village chief, she got back her own land and opened a restaurant in the town. With her good cooking skills, her business grew bigger and bigger, and she became the owner of a chain of restaurants.
Li Chunhong closed her eyes when she saw this, but she cried and laughed, as if she was lamenting the ups and downs of life. She knew that these were just scenes in a dream, but they were so real and clear, as if she had really experienced them.
But the scene changed, and she returned to her youth. Bai Shiqiao came back from school for the first time, cooked a delicious meal for her, and promised to take her to the city to enjoy life.
That "self" forgave her husband and tried hard to finish the meal he cooked and the bowl of deadly soup. As a result, she fell to the ground vomiting blood and died after a while.
Bai Shiqiao called his parents in and said to them mysteriously, "Mom and Dad, do you know? I'm now dating the daughter of a wealthy boss in the city! I can't keep this country girl anymore."
The two elders were overjoyed when they heard this, thinking that their son was truly charming. He had only been in school for a little over a year, and yet he had become the son-in-law of a wealthy businessman. Without a second thought, they wrapped Li Chunhong on a straw mat and hurriedly dragged her to the back hill to bury her under the cover of night.
As Li Chunhong lay in the dug pit, feeling the dirt and their cold, heartless words raining down on her body, she suddenly woke up. She quickly got up, not even having time to put on her shoes, and ran barefoot to the wooden table, trembling as she poured herself a glass of water.
Bai's mother next door was a light sleeper. When she heard the noise coming from her daughter-in-law's room, she immediately became alert. She shouted at Li Chunhong's room: "What are you doing so late at night? Li Chunhong, are you cheating on me?"
The mother-in-law's words once again coincided with what she said when she was buried, like a sharp sword that deeply hurt Li Chunhong's heart.
She finally regained consciousness, suppressed her fear and anger, and tried to calm herself. Then, she replied to Bai's mother, "It's okay, Mom. A few mice just ran into the room, and I was just trying to catch them. You can go back to sleep."
After waiting for a long time and seeing no more noise coming from the next room, Li Chunhong began to digest the dream. At first she thought it was a nightmare, but many details matched up, such as she had heard from fellow villagers a few days ago that Shiqiao was having a girlfriend at school. She was so angry that she planned to go find her husband and ask him about it after she finished her farm work at home.
The more Li Chunhong pondered, the more frightened she became, her entire body drenched in cold sweat. She didn't know why she had such a dream, nor did she understand its meaning. But she had a clear feeling that the dream seemed to be foreshadowing something important, perhaps a divine revelation of her future destiny.
The woman, who had figured it out, immediately knelt on the ground and bowed several times towards the moon, swearing that in this life she would escape the fate of being poisoned to death and let that bastard die of old age in the village like in her first life.
Su Lan, who was busy doing homework at home, suddenly sneezed without warning. She rubbed her nose, thinking that the room temperature might be too low due to the open window. So she stood up, closed the window, and returned to her desk to continue writing.
After finishing her homework, Su Lan pulled out the manuscripts the original owner had already written from a drawer. These were all carefully conceived works. She decided to submit them in two days. If they were published successfully, it would not only improve the family's situation but also help the original owner embark on a career as a writer.
For the next week, Su Lan's daily life was incredibly busy. She not only had to attend classes on time, but also carefully care for her mother and find time to write. She had no time to attend to the male protagonist's affairs. Fortunately, Tuanzi and Jin Ling took turns guarding the system screen, allowing her to focus on her own affairs.
After taking the Restore Pill, Su's mother's health began to improve, and her functions gradually recovered. Even the doctors marveled at the miracle. Three days later, the doctor examined Su's mother again and concluded that with another month of rest, she would fully recover.
Upon hearing the news, Su's mother was overwhelmed with emotion. She thanked the doctor profusely and returned home with her daughter. Along the way, Su's mother thought about returning to work as soon as possible to save for her daughter's college tuition. However, Su Lan firmly disagreed with her mother's idea. She knew that her mother had just recovered and could not overwork herself.
After arriving home, Su Lan took out the royalties for three articles she had received this week, totaling six yuan, from her room and handed it to her mother.
"Mom, look, this is the money I earned from writing articles, so you don't have to work so hard anymore. Let your daughter support you."
Su Lan imitated the original owner and put her arm around her mother's shoulder to get through.
"Host, tomorrow is the weekend. Do you want to go see a show?" Tuanzi asked Su Lan mischievously.
