The sky gradually darkened, making it impossible to find anything to eat in the forest. Wen Xiu had no choice but to flip around in the kitchen, finally finding the three sweet potatoes that her previous self had hidden in the stove to avoid Old Lady Lee's wife and the other two.

Wen Xiu roasted all the sweet potatoes, the three of them split each of them. After eating the remaining food at home, they washed up early and climbed onto the brick bed. He was so poor that he didn't even have an oil lamp. He could only sleep early.

However, after climbing onto the brick bed, Wen Xiu was having a hard time. She had eaten her fill tonight, so what were they going to eat tomorrow?

"Boom ~ ~ ~"

As the night curtain descended, the sky rang with a clap of thunder. Following that, lightning hibernated in the pitch-black sky. One clap of thunder after another followed as heavy rain poured down.

It's raining!

Heavy rain poured down from the sky, hitting the shabby roof. It was pouring down from the outside, and it was drizzling in the house. Twenty square meters of the house was leaking water everywhere, including on the brick bed. The three of them couldn't sleep, so they huddled together at the foot of the bed.

The heavens truly opened their eyes, giving retribution to those who came to watch the show. Tomorrow, they would have to hold onto the rice that was beaten down by the wind and rain and cry, as well as making the three of them unable to calm down tonight. What to do?

"Mother, I'm scared!"

Tongtong was so scared by the thunder that she started to shiver. She kept digging into Wen Xiu's arms. Only then did Wen Xiu remember if Tongtong had been hurt by the fall or not. She pulled her daughter into her embrace and whispered, "Tongtong, did you fall anywhere today?"

Tongtong sobbed for a long time before she finally said, "No, mother, I don't feel any pain."

The child would not lie. Tongtong's words were simply to prevent Wen Xiu from worrying, but it also exposed her injuries.

Wen Xiu was in trouble. What should she do? How to check if the child is hurt? She had been too careless. Why hadn't she thought of that before the sky turned dark?

"Mother, don't blame yourself. Little Sister's knee is injured, so it shouldn't be a big deal!" Shuer had shown it to his sister before, but there were some bruises on it so there shouldn't be any major problems. He agreed not to tell Wen Xiu about it, so that his mother wouldn't worry about it.

When Wen Xiu heard this, she hurriedly lifted Tongtong up and pulled open her pants. Borrowing the lightning's light, she could clearly see the bruises on Tongtong's knees. You call this fine? Green and swollen, it would be a problem if he didn't spread the silt.

Poor child!

Lee Lu, this inhumane son of a b * tch!

Wen Xiu scolded Lee Lu in her heart as she got off the bed. Relying on her memory, she found a broken oil-paper umbrella at the corner of the bed and said to the two children, "You two stay at home and don't go out. Mother will be back soon."

"Mother!"

The two children spoke at the same time, their voices filled with reluctance!

"Shuer, take good care of your sister. Don't leave this room, do you hear me?"

Li Mu wanted to refuse, but after thinking for a moment, he nodded his head very seriously, "Mother, don't worry!"

Just like that, under the reluctant gazes of the two children, Wen Xiu carried her tattered oil-paper umbrella through the downpour and hurried out of the courtyard, braving the lightning and thunder as she headed towards the forest.

In her previous life, Wen Xiu's career had been a disgrace, but she had no other choice. Being an orphan since childhood, in order to fill her stomach, she had no choice but to steal and rob. Over time, her hands and feet became the focus of some organization, and in the end, she was groomed to become a high level thief.

A high level thief was not only defined as a high level thief. Rather, she had to possess eighteen different martial arts styles and styles. Most of the things she stole were classified documents, precious collections, or things that couldn't be seen in public. The objects she stole were also different. However, this time, she had only entered a senior military officer's house to steal a secret document. Who knew that she would accidentally see him naked and fall into the river. In the end, she had teleported here …

Sigh, his fate was truly disastrous!

Wen Xiu had never enjoyed the taste of kinship, so when Shuer and Tongtong returned their affection to her mother, she could feel the affection between the original body and the child.

She was surprised and excited!

The bruises on Tongtong's knees were quite severe, and she had to apply some blood circulation to them. However, the storm tonight was so heavy, and there were no doctors in the village. She could only rely on her knowledge of common medicinal herbs from her previous life to venture into the mountains to try her luck. The child was still young, so he couldn't leave any regret behind just because of a little mistake.

"Big brother, I'm scared! Woo woo … * Mother, why aren't you back yet? "

Wen Xiu hadn't come back in four hours. Tongtong was afraid of the thunder and the thunder. She was also afraid that her mother wouldn't be able to come back. She nudged her brother and hugged him even tighter.

Li Mu was also worried as he looked outside the door again and again, hoping that he would be able to see his mother push open the door. While encouraging himself not to be afraid, he comforted his sister, "Don't be afraid, mother will be back in a while."

However, the two siblings waited for another two hours before the thunderstorm gradually lessened. However, their mother did not return.

At this moment, the siblings became anxious!

"Big brother, let's go find mother, alright?"

Tongtong was a bit tired, but she didn't see that her mother couldn't sleep, so she didn't dare to sleep. She shook Li Mu's arm with both hands, her voice pleading.

Li Mu was hesitant. He had promised his mother that he would protect his sister, and he had also promised not to leave home no matter what. However …

"Big brother, don't you want mother anymore? If you don't want to go, I'll go! "

Seeing that her brother had ignored her, Tongtong's small face stiffened. She wrinkled her nose, wiped away her tears and got off the bed. However, the injury to her knee caused her to stagger and fall to the ground.

"Woo woo …"

"Tongtong!" Li Mu came back to reality and jumped off the brick bed before he could put on his shoes. He exclaimed as he pulled his sister into his embrace and nervously checked her knees, "Did you get injured from the fall? Does it hurt? "Big brother will whoop for you, don't cry, don't cry …"

"Big brother, I want mother, I want mother, wuwuwu …"

Li Tong cried bitterly. Her knees hurt, but it couldn't compare to her desire to see her mother.

"Alright, don't cry. I'll take you to see your mother. Don't cry …"

Li Mu had no choice but to worry about Wen Xiu. Although he didn't know where his mother had gone, he clenched his teeth and carried his sister onto his back. "Tongtong, hug your brother tight. I'll take you to see your mother now."

"En!"

"Creak ~ ~ ~"

Li Mu had just taken two steps with Li Tong on his back when he saw the door open from outside. Borrowing the light of the lightning, a shadow walked in. Who else could this drenched person be other than their mother?

"Mother!"

"Mother!"

The two children happily shouted. Wen Xiu, who was drenched and ice-cold, felt her heart warm up. No matter how great the danger she had just taken was, it was worth it!
