Chapter 12

I have to say that the three of them were very successful in buying vegetables this time when they went to the supply and marketing cooperative.

After that, almost no one spread the news that Lu Anning was mute.

Of course, there are some stubborn people who firmly believe in what they believe, so it is unnecessary to explain to them.

“Lu Anning, mom will make dinner, you should go back to your room and rest.”

“Come on, I’ll help mom.”

Seeing that both of them said so, Lu Anning did not force to go to the kitchen to help.

The original owner could cook some simple home-cooked meals, but she herself was a complete novice in the kitchen.

The family has always had a nanny doing all the cooking. She even cooks instant noodles very rarely, and then she has to cook when her parents are not at home or the nanny is on leave, otherwise they don’t trust her to cook by herself.

“Mom, is there any cure for Lu Anning’s throat?”

Sui Jingxing initially thought that Lu Anning couldn’t speak, but that day in the hospital, he discovered that she seemed to be able to speak, but it seemed that she had some difficulty in making sounds.

“It can be cured, but we don’t know exactly when it will be cured. Our family has been waiting.”

“She was born with vocal cord dysplasia. Actually, I am the one who is sorry for her.”

“When Lu Anning was pregnant, your father-in-law was sent to the southern border for support. You must have had a certain understanding of the war situation at that time.”

“I was always worried about his safety. I missed him so much that I became sick. My health wasn’t very good. One night when I was on duty for 24 hours straight, I accidentally caught a cold.”

“I didn’t know I was pregnant at the time, so I asked a colleague to prescribe me some medicine for two days. Half a month after I recovered from my cold, I found out I was pregnant. It had been more than three months.”

“It’s not that I haven’t thought about aborting the baby, but I couldn’t bear the risk of abortion given my physical condition at the time. Your father-in-law was already in the midst of war, and if something happened to me again, only the old man and the young Anping would be left at home. After much thought, I decided to keep the baby in my belly. After all, it’s a living life.”

At that time, all of them were betting that the child would be healthy. Fortunately, after ten months of pregnancy, Lu Anning was born.

The whole family was so happy to see that she had all her limbs intact, had fair skin, and looked like a lovely little angel.

Before she was one year old, Lu Anning’s crying was a little hoarse, but no one paid much attention to it at that time. After all, some children are born with hoarse voices.

As Lu Anning grew up, they gradually discovered her differences. They took her for examination and finally confirmed the cause.

Her heart almost broke when she heard the doctor say that it might be caused by the medicine the mother took during pregnancy.

If she had taken good care of herself at that time, and not taken her body lightly, and paid more careful attention to her physical condition, would she have discovered that she was pregnant, and would she not have taken the medicine for those two days!

Feeling guilty about Lu Anning, Lu’s mother pampered her in every way, fearing that she would get hurt again.

Lu’s mother and Sui Jingxing talked about the past and cried uncontrollably.

“Mom, you don’t have to be too sad. It’s fine now.”

“Jingxing, your father-in-law and I feel very sorry for not informing you of Lu Anning’s situation before, but since you are already married, I beg you to treat her well. If you don’t want to take care of her anymore, don’t neglect her. Return her to us. Her father and I will come and take her home.”

“Mom, you are too kind.”

“Since I’m already married to Lu Anning, I will naturally treat her well.”

From the day Lu Anning agreed to marry him, regardless of whether there was love between them or not, Lu Anning became his responsibility as Sui Jingxing, and he was obligated to take good care of her.

“Anping has been concentrating on studying things related to the ear, nose and throat. We all believe that one day, Anning will return to normal.”

“Yes.”

The mother and son-in-law were talking in the kitchen. Lu Sheng was standing by the kitchen door wiping his tears and did not go in.

He always knew that his wife felt very guilty about Lu Anning’s matter, but he had no other choice.

With his current status, he couldn’t even take his daughter abroad for medical treatment. After all, he owed them mother and daughter.

Lu Anning in the room had no idea what was happening outside. She was sitting in front of the mirror, repeatedly observing the “red dot” between her eyebrows. She looked left and right but couldn’t figure out what was going on.

Although she had only traveled through time for a few days, her heart had already become extremely strong. No matter what happened, she would not find it outrageous.

After all, is there any experience in this world more outrageous than traveling through time and space and then returning to life through another corpse?

She even tried to pinch her thigh, and it really hurt. If she was dreaming, the pain was too real.

Now she just wanted to go to the Chinese medicine store to buy some cinnabar and repeat Xinran’s actions.

If she successfully returns to the modern era, I wonder if she will continue to be a soul following Xinran, or will she be reborn as a dead person like the current situation.

As for her own body, she could never go back. It had long since turned into a pile of ashes and was buried in the cemetery.

Just as she was imagining how she would find her parents and reunite with Xinran if she returned to modern times and resurrected, the voice of Lu’s mother outside the door calling her out for dinner brought her back to reality.

As soon as I left the room, I saw that Lu’s mother’s eyes were a little red, obviously she had been crying not long ago.

Lu Anning was a little confused, but he didn’t ask any questions. He took the rice handed to him by Lu’s mother and sat down obediently.

During the meal, Lu’s mother would pick up her favorite dishes for her from time to time. Lu Anning couldn’t bear that she had to take care of herself and delay her meal, so she would pick up some for her in return.

In case Lu’s father gets jealous, she will also give him a share.

“Lu Anning, Jing Xing likes to eat shredded potatoes.”

Mother Lu winked at her secretly, and she tried to pretend she didn’t hear it, but Father Lu also said, “Jingxing seems to like this fried eggs with peppers, too.”

With her parents assisting her in turns, it was difficult for her to pretend that she didn’t hear anything. Under the gaze of the three of them, she picked up a piece of shredded potatoes with her chopsticks and put it into Sui Jingxing’s bowl.

“Thank you, Lu Anning.”

She didn’t look back at him, just lowered her head and ate her meal.

As long as she buried her head low enough, they wouldn’t be able to find her. She wanted to hide!

Fortunately, no one said anything during dinner time, which made her breathe a sigh of relief.

It has only been a few days since she came here, and now she is facing a strange man who wants her, a novice in love, to have a relationship. She wants to shout out: I can’t do it!
