The Evil Man’s Lazy Lady Chapter 2 (Part 2)
Chapter 2: Born in the Same Year, Same Month, and Same Day (2) Original translation is from tenderflower's blog.
After a stick of incense, Qin-shi gave birth to a daughter. Mother and daughter were safe.
Sending away old lady Zhang, the three of them all surrounded her.
Qin-shi gently patted the sleeping little daughter. Her face was soft.
“You have worked hard.” Shu Maoting gathered his wife’s hair together for her and said softly.
Qin-shi’s pretty face blushed. She glanced at her husband with a shy look.
She was 23 years old this year. She had a fair complexion, an oval face, and willow eyebrows. She was a well-known beauty embryo and the only daughter of the Qin family. She had been loved by her elders since she was a child.
Six years ago, she met Shu Maoting who came to see her father. She didn’t mind his poor family and married him without hesitation. But facts proved that her choice was right. After marriage, the young married couples were affectionate and lived a happy life.
“Mother, what’s the younger sister’s name?” Shu Zhan looked at the baby wrapped in cotton cloth with good eyes and asked softly. The younger sister was asleep. One must not disturb her.
Qin-shi and Shu Maoting looked at each other and smiled. They had already thought about names for each gender. “Your younger sister is called Ah Lan. You have to take good care of her in the future!”
Shu Zhan murmured his younger sister’s name and nodded solemnly like a little adult.
Qin-shi smiled and suddenly heard her eldest daughter say: “Mother, there is something dirty under my younger sister’s neck!”
Qin-shi was startled. She looked down and saw that the eldest daughter was talking about the light gray birthmark on the child’s shoulder blade. She couldn’t help breathing a sigh of relief.
After listening to her mother’s explanation, Shu Wan blinked her eyes. Why did she think her younger sister’s birthmark was like two tooth marks?
Shu Lan didn’t even know the noise around her. She slept sweetly. When she was hungry, she opened her mouth, and immediately there was a warm ball stuffed into her mouth. After smashing it twice, she could drink a very sweet stream. When she was full, she continued to sleep, but these people didn’t let her sleep peacefully. They always liked to touch her twice. Either her face or her buttocks which made her itchy and uncomfortable.
She could slowly see the surrounding clearly. She was shocked at first. There were no towering trees, no green vines, no thick fallen leaves, and no earthy air deeply imprinted in her mind. There were just a bunch of strange things and there were living creatures among them. They babbled and pointed to her. At first, she didn’t know what they meant, but after hearing them more often, she gradually understood them. Occasionally when feeling anxious, she would also yell out in a hurry.
She remembered the first time she said “Mother”, the person who used to feed her milk happily embraced her and kissed her over and over. She smiled that day. When she stood up swayingly for the first time, “Father” lifted her up and put her on his shoulder to wind around a few times. She was so frightened and urinating on him, but Father wasn’t angry at all and still used his green chin to sting her.
When she lay on the ground for the first time to sleep, “older sister” picked her up distressedly fearing she would freeze. When she was pushed down by the bad girl for the first time, “older brother” stretched out his hand and pushed the bad girl to fall flat on her face. When she went home, she was beaten severely by her mother, while her older brother was holding his buttocks and shouting pain, he winked at her. It was very funny.
At the age of 5, Shu Lan finally understood what happened to the change in her body and gradually got used to this kind of life.
She knew she had become a human being, a very strange creature.
Thanks!
