The kang (heated brick bed) for left-behind women

Chapter 103 Excessive Love

"He...threw up again today," Su Wanrong suddenly said, her voice so soft it sounded like a sigh. "He complained the medicine was bitter and smashed the bowl."

She was referring to Mr. Qian's son, her man.

She was injured in a mining accident and lost her fertility.

This made her man extremely irritable and self-destructive.

Mr. Qian had only one son in three generations, and this generation was on the verge of dying out, which made him so anxious that his mouth was covered in blisters.

They found Lin Dachun through Aunt Zhou's introduction of a matchmaker. She said he was sturdy and that his family had a long line of male descendants.

Su Wanrong is now very satisfied.

"Where is he now?" Lin Dachun asked.

"On the kang (heated brick bed) at his father's side," Su Wanrong replied.

"Does he know I'm coming?" Lin Dachun asked again.

Su Wanrong shook her head.

Lin Dachun lowered his head and looked at his rough palms.

The palms were calloused, and the cracks were filled with dirt that could not be washed off.

These hands can lift a hoe weighing dozens of kilograms and steady a swaying plow, but now they are used to embrace a woman.

"Just bear with it a little longer," Lin Dachun said in a hoarse voice, "and it will be fine once...once you get pregnant."

Su Wanrong looked up, her eyes flashing eerily in the dim light: "So it's all good that you're pregnant? Lin Dachun, are you really that clueless, or are you just pretending?"

Lin Dachun was stumped by the question.

He opened his mouth, but no sound came out.

Yes, it's good that you're pregnant, right?

The child was born with the surname Qian, and was called Grandpa Qian, while his disabled father was called Grandpa Qian.

What is his relationship with Lin Dachun?

What does this have to do with Su Wanrong? They are merely continuing the Qian family line, but none of them are members of the Qian family.

How ridiculous, how absurd!

It's like borrowing a hoe or a cow; once you've used it, you have to return it cleanly.

"I don't know how to say it. Why are you suddenly treating me like this?" Lin Dachun finally managed to squeeze out this sentence.

No sooner had she finished speaking than Su Wanrong kissed Lin Dachun on the lips.

Last time we met, she was so aloof and superior. How come this time she's become so tactful and seems to be submitting to Lin Dachun?

for a long time.

Su Wanrong then parted Lin Dachun's mouth.

What a sweet mouth! So sweet, so fragrant. Lin Dachun thought to himself.

Su Wanrong smiled, a smile more painful than a grimace: "I'm their tool. But you and I, though we're tools too, our happiness is real. Give me happiness, okay?"

She paused, then lowered her voice, "I like your happiness."

She spoke those last few words very softly, yet they struck Lin Dachun's heart like a hammer blow.

The two stared at each other in the dim light.

Their shadows were cast on the earthen wall, huge, twisted, and intertwined, making it impossible to distinguish one from another.

After an unknown amount of time, Su Wanrong looked away.

In front of Lin Dachun, she began to unbutton her blue cotton shirt.

One, two, my fingers trembled slightly, but I didn't stop moving.

"Come on," she said, her voice eerily calm, "the sooner you finish, the sooner you can go home. If it gets late, your Ruoxue will start to get suspicious."

Lin Dachun stood still.

He looked at her back; she was thin and stiff, like a withered blade of grass standing tall in the cold wind.

The dampness and medicinal smell in the cave suddenly became incredibly strong, making it hard for him to breathe.

Moonlight slanted in through the high skylight, carving a pale white patch on the ground.

Within that patch of light, dust motes spun slowly and silently.

Lin Dachun finally lunged at him.

"Wanrong..." he called out, his voice hoarse.

The person on the kang (heated brick bed) did not respond.

The moonlight shone just on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed), revealing Su Wanrong's thin, frail body, which rose and fell slightly with her breath.

It simply emits that captivating sound.
