The family sat, drank milk and talked. In the morning, José looked for people in the village. Except for three people who were working outside, the others were idle at home and farming. There was still some time before the autumn harvest, so they could help build the house and it was good for them to be able to earn some money in the village, so naturally everyone agreed to it. Joseph also asked a elder to estimate the materials needed to build the house. In addition to the large amount of wood that is free, the other things and labor costs together will cost at least 60 silver coins. If you build a few more houses to store dried flowers, the patio will be expanded and the walls will be higher. 100 silver coins may be enough. But Mary was no longer worried, because she discussed it with José on the way, José had a good relationship with Pedro, the owner of the grocery store in the city, with the contract for essential oils it should not be difficult for them to borrow some 40 silver

At that moment Maria and Helena were sitting at the table weaving lace, Helena looked up from time to time and saw Selena pouring water, her beautiful appearance right after bathing really made her envious as a woman. For a moment she was envious of how Maria could give birth to a daughter with that appearance. Compared to her, her daughter is like an ugly country girl. But Selena's appearance is no worse than that of a city girl. Helena is a frank and direct person, she says what she wants to say: "Maria, your daughter Selena's appearance is the most beautiful in the nearby towns. Oh, it's a shame that my son Alberto, he is three years younger than Selena, from Otherwise I would have tried every means to turn Selena into our Alberto's wife..." She has a daughter and a son. Her youngest son is only ten years old, three years younger than Selena, he plays wildly every day and never thinks about anything like that. Maria naturally felt proud when people praised her daughter, even she

They always love Iris very much and give her everything she wants. Carmen only has one daughter like that and she treats her like a treasure. Iris only treated her like a servant. Selena yes she was a little disobedient. If Iris complains to Carmen and Hugo, you will inevitably be reprimanded. Selena, who was eavesdropping outside the door at the time, saw that she couldn't hide, so she had to pretend that she had just arrived, carefully opened the door, and then walked in. As soon as she entered, everyone in the room looked, except Mary and Joseph, when they saw her, everyone else showed different signs of surprise, no wonder, at home she wore black or gray clothes all day, and her hair sometimes It was messy, which went very unnoticed. I thought it had only been more than a year since we broke up, but the ugly and low-key girl back then turned out to be so beautiful. As soon as people walk in, they immediately feel their eyes light up. Selena wore a peach pink muslin and thin cotto

Maria almost fainted when she saw this. If Lucia hadn't helped her from behind her, she would have fainted. A girl's face is very important. If her appearance is damaged, how can she get married? Now that her daughter's originally beautiful and tender face was covered in blood, how could Maria not faint from fear? Lucia saw that Selena was injured and her entire face seemed to be covered in blood, and the blood on her hands continued to bleed. She immediately yelled to someone outside to find a doctor. After recovering, Maria ran to Selena's side, "Selena, tell me what happened, what was happening just now..." Selena seemed unable to hold on and dilated her pupils, grabbed Maria with her bloody hands and only said: "Auntie, she wants my base. She, she..." Before she could finish her words, then he fainted in Maria's arms. As soon as Maria heard the word "aunt", her eyes lifted and looked at Iris with hatred like a tigress protecting the child. Before, she always bullied Selena. Now t

Selena walked around the house for a while after eating. At noon she ate two pieces of red date cake and a few pieces of meat, which were not much. What made her uncomfortable was that she drank two bowls of milk. Her parents don't like drinking it either, they only drink more than half a bowl at a time and the rest is hers. Seeing how Selena drank a big bowl every time, they thought she liked to drink this, but in fact, she almost vomited after drinking it, and adding sesame powder only slightly alleviated the taste, the aftertaste is really unpleasant. But there is no way, to be stronger you have to pay this price. Leaning in front of the window and looking at the scenery outside, she felt a little melancholy, wondering how long she would have to drink this milk before she could get stronger. Selena has been "recovering" at home for most of the month. Many women in the town like to gossip, openly or covertly, and ask indirectly about Selena's face. Because she fell to the ground w
