Chapter 749: A Roll of Toilet Paper

Xia Ruoxin touched her left arm, and it really did not have any strength; she could not even lift it up. When they all went back onshore, someone came specifically to keep the gold. Someone handed some gold over, but the majority of them did not. Obviously, the person who collected the gold was very satisfied and said something.

However, Xia Ruoxin could not understand him at all.

Two people brought a container of rice.

Xia Ruoxin gulped down her saliva. The pain in her stomach became even worse due to hunger.

She held her stomach with one hand and followed behind the others to take a bowl of rice. Everyone only had half a bowl of the yellowish rice with no side dishes, but Xia Ruoxin found out that the people who had found gold were able to get a big bowl of rice with meat and a big bowl of soup to drink. The rest could only eat the food dryly and drink raw water.

“Can you take it?” Shen Wei asked worriedly. She knew Xia Ruoxin’s body, and once her period came, it would hurt her like hell—not to mention that she still needed to go down to the water and drink cold water.

Women could not touch cold and raw things these few days, but now…

“It’s okay.” Xia Ruoxin touched Shen Wei’s arm. Her belly hurt again so she touched her with more force, but Shen Wei did not budge. Her expression did not change as if it was not Xia Ruoxin who grabbed her arm, and she was just like a wood.

“Sorry.” Xia Ruoxin hurriedly let go, but she did not even dare to move as a rush of hot blood flowed down her leg. The bloody smell became more obvious.

“It’s okay. You don’t have much strength anyway.” Shen Wei sat down beside her, and it seemed like they could take a rest. However, no one returned to the house; and they all went to the river to pick rocks instead.

Xia Ruoxin sighed and held her stomach tightly. She smiled bitterly. “I’m okay, at least I gave birth before. What about you? It might not be good for your body if you spend too long in the water.”

Actually, what she said was a farce. It was not a maybe, it was a definitely. Putting aside the fact it would harm one’s body, soaking in cold water all day long would not bring about benefits and might even affect a woman’s fertility.

Shen Wei leaned against the wall and let the warm sunlight land on her face.

What’s the difference if she could not give birth? She did not really want children anymore.

Bang! Bang! The sticks hit the floor, and the other women took their nets and went into the river.

Xia Ruoxin followed them down. This day, she endured the cramps from her lower abdomen and had almost fainted in the river a few times. A warm gush of liquid would flow down her pants from time to time, but the river was still as cold.
