Chapter 249 True or False First Love 49_1
Zhou Juan now lies in her cave dwelling, feeling as if her body isn’t her own.
It’s clearly not the busy farming season, yet there are still so many things to do, she is really tired.
What she hates most is that after tending to the fields, they still have to go far to fetch water.
Every day, she can only carry enough water for one pot to drink, and to save water, she really has to ration every drop.
Otherwise, if there’s not enough water, they’ll have to fetch more. And she can’t even think about using the water that other educated youth have brought back. Once discovered, there would definitely be serious consequences.
Being scolded would be the least of it; they would also beat you and make you fetch a bucket of water from the outside.
What breaks her heart even more is that Zheng Weijian, who clearly said he would take care of her, has really disappeared at this time.
Asking him to help carry water even a little, brings all sorts of complaints. He leaves his clothes for her to wash and expects her to cook—completely washing his hands of the matter.
Zheng Weijian, without any filters, has dramatically dropped in her esteem. She remembers Zhou Lina’s words—it was only you who treated him like a treasure.
Yes, it was she who considered him a treasure. Zhou Juan truly regrets why she had to scheme against Zhou Lina. If she hadn’t, would things be different now?
