The Two Hundred and Eighty Pound Fat Girl and Her Five Husbands-Chapter 8: Sven
Chapter 8
Just as Lin Zaozao was sulking in front of an empty pot, the sound of a wheelchair at the door brought her thoughts back.
She turned around and saw her fifth husband, Gu Shan, at the kitchen entrance. He was pushing his own makeshift wheelchair.
As Gu Shan reached the kitchen door, he saw Lin Zaozao staring sadly at the empty pot with a pitiful look.
She looked like an abandoned puppy, pitiful and forlorn.
"Lin Xiaohua, I saved some food for myself. Would you like to have some?" Gu Shan said.
With that, he took out an oiled paper package from his pocket and handed it to Lin Zaozao, who had tears in her eyes.
"Here! Take it and eat! Don't just stand there like a fool."
Gu Shan looked at Lin Zaozao, who was staring longingly at the oiled paper package without moving. A somewhat forced smile appeared on his lips as he extended the package towards her.
"Yes, really, for me?" Lin Zaozao pointed to her own nose with a mix of belief and doubt.
"Yes, hurry up and take it."
"Don't you need me to lose weight?"
"We can't let you starve even if you want to lose weight!"
Upon hearing Gu Shan's words, Lin Zaozao couldn't resist the hunger in her stomach any longer.
Although she didn't know what was inside the oiled paper package, the fragrance emanating from it made Lin Zaozao, who had been hungry for four days, extremely tempted.
To be honest, after four days of starving, even if Gu Shan handed her a delicious poison, she would have eaten it directly.
Because she was incredibly hungry.
People always say that it's great to transmigrate, to be surrounded by handsome princes running after you.
But when Lin Zaozao transmigrated, there were indeed handsome men around, but unfortunately, they didn't even spare her a glance.
Not only was there no handsome man, but the most important thing was that she had to go hungry.
Ah! Heavenly Father, she wanted to go home.
Suppressing the urge to complain in her heart, Lin Zaozao took the oiled paper package from Gu Shan's hand and quickly unfolded the outer layer of paper to reveal a fragrant and crispy oil cake inside.
Lin Zaozao gently sniffed at it like a puppy.
Heavens! It smelled so good.
She was really starving, so Lin Zaozao took a bite and nearly devoured one-fifth of the oil cake. But because she ate too quickly, she choked on the somewhat dry cake.
Although she was choking, Lin Zaozao couldn't bear to spit it out. Because she didn't know if there would be anything else to eat later if she did.
Just as Lin Zaozao was about to pass out from choking, a bowl of water appeared in front of her.
"Lin Xiaohua, drink some water quickly. Don't choke to death on a bite of bread," came the teasing voice.
Listening to the playful voice in her ear, Lin Zaozao didn't even bother to look up. She just took the bowl and drank it greedily.
After gulping down the bowl of water, Lin Zaozao felt as if she had been given a new lease on life. So, she continued to devour the remaining oil cake in her hand, taking big bites.
In less than a second, Lin Zaozao had finished the oil cake, leaving nothing behind.
She didn't mind being embarrassed and licked the oil paper in her hand clean before drinking two bowls of water. Then she remembered to look up at the person who had been handing her water all this time.
It turned out to be Ji Fantian, the second husband who had found her dirty yesterday! He was standing at the kitchen doorway, holding a kettle in his hand, with a smile on his lips as he faced her.
"Lin Zaozao, are you still thirsty?"
"Ah! No, I'm good. Thank you, Ji Fantian."
Lin Zaozao replied politely.
"No need to be polite."
Ji Fantian replied indifferently.
"But Lin Zaozao, you pretended to be foolish for a few days. Are you not pretending anymore?"
"I wasn't foolish in the first place, so there's no question of pretending or not. Let me tell you, what I did was method acting." Lin Zaozao retorted confidently.
"Oh, I see! According to your explanation, you're still a fool." Ji Fantian explained calmly.
"Bullshit!"
Lin Zaozao rolled her eyes at him unceremoniously. After all, this guy was blind, so even if she made faces at him, he couldn't see.
But then, Lin Zaozao heard a sentence that shocked her.
"Lin Zaozao, as a girl, rolling your eyes is uncivilized."
"Hey, Ji Fantian, are you pretending to be blind? Which eye of yours saw me rolling my eyes?
Moreover, I was never civilized to begin with, so there's no question of being uncivilized.
Ji Fantian, you think too much about being civilized or not in this shabby place." Lin Zaozao said, and then she went straight to Gu Shan, who had been sitting quietly in the wheelchair.
"Gu Shan, I've finished eating, and I'm not hungry anymore. As a beautiful and kind wife, I'm going to take you out for a walk now!"
After saying that, without waiting for Gu Shan to refuse, Lin Zaozao went straight to the back of Gu Shan's wheelchair and pushed him out of the courtyard.
She didn't even look back at the faint smile that appeared on Ji Fantian's lips.
It seems that this foolish wife of his is not a simple person! Otherwise, she wouldn't have survived until adulthood after being poisoned so cunningly.
Outside the courtyard, Lin Zaozao curiously looked around. Because she had been studying at school before crossing over, she didn't know much about rural life.
After all, studying all day had made her head spin, and she didn't have time or the leisure to wander around!
Now that she had truly arrived in the countryside, she could only feel that the atmosphere in the countryside was really peaceful.
And comfortable, without the fast-paced feeling of a big city. The most important thing was that she no longer had to wake up earlier than the chickens and sleep later than the dogs.
It was probably because it was the busy farming season that the people in the village were not at home.
Speaking of which, although she had settled down in this place called Luoshui Village, she didn't even have a piece of land here, apart from the front and back yards of the house.
But even if she had land, what could she do? She didn't know how to farm. And her five husbands, they were either deaf or dumb, blind or paralyzed.
Considering their cold and aloof demeanor, it was highly unlikely for her to command them to help her with farming!
In the future, she would definitely have to come up with a skill to support her family.
Hmm! How about relying on her system to become a divine doctor?
It's a risk-free transaction, and she only finds fault in not making a profit.
With that thought, Lin Zaozao couldn't help but feel a little delighted.
