Chapter 37: Chapter 36: Embarrassing Incident

"Oh, be careful on the road, I’m leaving first." Lin Wan felt that Ye Qing’s mom seemed a bit nervous today, she thought her dad might have hit her again. She didn’t dare to ask more.

Ye Qing’s dad was a notorious drunkard, and after drinking, he liked to hit his wife. Every time she got beaten, he inevitably talked about her past with Wu Guodong. Over the years, Ye Qing’s mom had endured a lot in silence.

In a previous life when she returned to the village, she heard Liang Zhi mention that Ye Qing’s dad got drunk and drowned in the river.

She didn’t ask when he died, but she knew that Ye Qing’s dad eventually died.

Every time she saw Ye Qing, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t remember how she offended her that day during the movie.

She thought for a long time but couldn’t think of anything about Ye Qing. The only thing she remembered was, since that day, Ye Qing seemed to not have left the house for two months and was on sick leave from school.

Lin Wan went around several nearby villages, and her sales were quite good. But whenever she walked, some people’s gazes always seemed strange.

She didn’t pay much attention to it; when doing business, there’s always someone who looks down on you.

As it was approaching noon, she passed by a nearby village. A woman in her twenties bought two rice dumplings from her, and when she was about to leave after paying, she suddenly stopped Lin Wan and said, "Sister, didn’t you realize you got your period? Better go back, there’s a big stain on your pants."

Lin Wan was terribly embarrassed, her face feeling hot like it was burning. She looked down and pulled her pants to check. She was wearing light-colored pants today, and indeed, there was a big stain. How did she not notice?

Oh... this is so embarrassing.

"Thank you for the reminder, big sister, I’ll be off now." Lin Wan thanked her, trying to hide her embarrassment, and quickly placed her bamboo basket in her arm, using it to cover her backside as she hurriedly left the village.

On the way, Lin Wan kept her head down, avoiding eye contact with people. This was just too humiliating. Fortunately, she didn’t see anyone she knew, or it would have been even more embarrassing.

In neither of her past lives nor this one had she ever encountered something like this.

"Why are you back so early today? Sold out?" Liang Hongmei was at home wrapping rice dumplings, and seeing her daughter return so early, she asked curiously.

"No," Lin Wan muttered with her head down, and without putting down her basket, went straight to her room.

She quickly found her menstrual cloth, stuffed some cotton into it for immediate use.

During this period, even though there was toilet paper, it was expensive and only available in big cities.

In rural areas, most people still used plant ash. Families with means would collect a lot of newspapers, used notebooks, or coarse cloth to replace the plant ash.

Very few families could afford cotton.

She usually used plant ash, but today, the situation was sudden, and she didn’t have time to prepare the plant ash, so she had to use some cotton temporarily.

While Lin Wan was changing clothes, Liang Hongmei came in, startling Lin Wan into quickly covering up.

"Mom, why didn’t you knock on the door?"

"I... I forgot, seeing your face wasn’t looking too good, I thought something had happened to you." Liang Hongmei felt concerned when she noticed her daughter’s stained clothes. "How did it bleed so much? Does your stomach hurt? Go lie down and rest, I’ll make you a bowl of brown sugar water."

"Mom, I’m fine, I don’t feel any pain."

"You’re still a kid, you don’t understand. It must be because you’ve been too active recently, much more than before. Just rest well. Even if it doesn’t hurt, you should drink some." Liang Hongmei forced Lin Wan to lie down on the bed as she took the dirty clothes and left.
