Wen Xiu went out in the rain to find a common herb, often found in southern farmhouses. Southerners call it "pickpocket grass", very effective for sprain, sprain, bruising. When she was young, when she was beaten up for stealing things, she would silently pick a few leaves and chew on them. Then, she would silently lay her wounds on the ground …

"Mother, what's wrong? Are you sick? "

Shuer asked as he looked at Wen Xiu, who was picking the leaves in a daze.

Wen Xiu came back to her senses. Unknowingly, she recalled her past suffering. Her nose was sore and the corners of her eyes were moist. She tried her best to sniff to prevent her tears from falling and squeezed out a smile. "It's alright, mother is fine."

Tongtong sat on the brick bed, looking at her mother who was carefully applying the medicine for her, and started crying again.

When Wen Xiu heard Li Tong cry, her hands and feet immediately panicked. "Tongtong, did mother hurt you?" "Mother, huff huff for you, don't cry, don't cry …" After saying that, she forced out a breath of cold air towards her daughter's knee.

At this moment, Tongtong cried even louder.

In the end, the three of them hugged and cried sorrowfully until the sky turned white. Only then did they fall asleep on the brick bed that was not wet by the rain.

After a night of heavy rain, the sun had risen early in the east.

Everything was as Wen Xiu had expected. After the strong wind and heavy rain, the rice that had not been harvested and returned home in time due to watching the fun had been swatted down the field. Many people were standing in the paddy fields, collecting the rice while sighing and regretting their actions.

If yesterday did not watch the fun, the rice would have been taken back, how could such a disaster have befallen them?

Retribution!

Wen Xiu didn't gloat over this, because the thing that worried her was coming — what was she going to eat this morning?

The only three sweet potatoes left in the house had already been eaten. If they didn't find something to eat as soon as possible, the three of them would starve to death before being drowned by saliva.

Sigh!

Wen Xiu glanced at the child, who was still sleeping soundly, then examined Tongtong's bruised knee. Seeing that the bruises had scattered, Wen Xiu bit off more of the shattered medicinal leaves and applied them to Tongtong before tiptoeing out the door.

"Xiu, where are you going so early?"

Wen Xiu had just reached the edge of the field when she heard someone calling to her. She raised her head and looked over, and saw her wife from Wang Family, Yueniang, who was similar to her in marrying into the village.

Yueniang has a good temper and is quite likeable, but people always have their faults. Her original body had killed her husband, Lee Jun, in just a few days after marrying into the Lee Family, and Yueniang had married into the Wang Family for exactly five years, yet didn't add a single girl for the Wang Family.

The two of them were not the same person, but they had the same life. They were both pitiful people in the village.

"There's nothing to eat at home, I want to go find something to eat."

Wen Xiu didn't hide anything as she revealed her purpose of leaving the morning room.

Lee Family had a few acres of land, and at the same time, they had also rented a few acres of land from the owner of the land, but they did not allow Wen Xiu to touch it at all. Wen Xiu was a diligent and capable person. She wanted to rent two acres of land from the landlord. Unfortunately, the landlord thought that she had no man and was a daughter-in-law, so he refused to rent the land for her. After so many years had passed, she had no land in the village, no land, and always had to rely on wild fruits and grass to feed her hunger. It was just those sweet potatoes that Yueniang had secretly given to her original body.

Yueniang carried a washtub in her hands as if she was going to wash clothes by the river. She could do nothing about Wen Xiu's miserable situation, so after sighing and nodding, she continued, "There are too many people in the village gossiping about it. Just be patient and wait for Liu Dang to finish. "Unlike me, I'm afraid there won't be a single girl living in retirement in my life …" As she spoke, Yueniang's voice had already begun to choke.

Wen Xiu wasn't familiar with anyone else, so she didn't know how to comfort Yueniang. After all, she had no experience with giving birth to children, so she just kept quiet. After a long while, Yueniang came back to her senses, and laughed: "Look at me, what are you talking about? Come on, go find something to eat. The children should be hungry. The roads are slippery from the heavy rain, you have to be careful. "

"Mmm, the river is overflowing, you should be careful too."

The two of them exchanged a few words before saying their goodbyes!

Yueniang was the first person to express her friendliness to Wen Xiu after coming to this place. After walking for some distance, she turned around and looked at Yueniang's back, who was carrying the washbasin away from her, feeling a little more resolute in her heart.

Not everyone was a bad person, right?

In order to understand this place as soon as possible, Wen Xiu walked into the forest while combing through the memories of her original body.

The place she was going to wear was a place that had never existed in the history of the Great Heaven Dynasty, called Daxia. The little mountain village she was in was named Xitang Village. It was situated in a large mountain outside of a bustling city called Yongan, and was about three days and three nights' journey away from Yongan City. Normally, people went to the town's market place, where the Peace Town s were small and the economy backward, but compared to the Xitang Village s, they were many times richer.

Her original body wasn't someone from Xitang Village, her mother lived in Lily Village, and she had a total of seven sisters and a younger brother with her. In order to give birth to a son, her mother gave birth to eight babies in one go and finally got a boy. In order to make a living, her parents sold off their big sister and her.

Not long after Lee Jun's death, the original body's parents knew that the Lee Family people did not like the original body. However, she later heard that her third sister, fourth sister, and fifth sister had all been sold by her parents. Another two years had passed, and perhaps Sixth and Seventh Sister's circumstances were similar.

Why, why!

Wen Xiu sighed and shook her head as she thought of this.

"Forget it, rather than pitiful people who have died, it would be better to have more time to look for food. At this season of the year, what is there to eat in the mountains? "

Wen Xiu muttered to herself as she walked. She slowly walked into the forest while stepping on the slippery ground.

The rainwater washed away the mountain forest for an entire night, making it hard to walk on it. There were even landslides in many places, blocking off the original roads. Wen Xiu looked at the hard road and felt a lingering fear. How did she manage to survive after travelling through the forest last night?

Oh god, motherly love is truly great and powerful!

Wen Xiu had always been wandering around the edge of the woods, not daring to enter. She gritted her teeth as she walked deeper into the forest with great difficulty, traversing through the mud and landslides. If she had not been worried about her livelihood, the beautiful scenery would have made her sing a poem: Empty Mountain After the New Rain, the weather comes late autumn.

Sigh, putting such a good poem here, I don't know if I should feel sad or not.

Autumn was still a few days away, and the leaves had not yet fallen. Layers of green leaves obscured the view, and the ground was slippery. Wen Xiu looked around, but didn't even see any wild vegetables or fruits, much less wild chickens.

"Sigh, are you really going to starve me to death?"

Wen Xiu casually grabbed a stalk of Sargasso Grass and placed it in her mouth, biting on it as she chipped away at it. Just as she was feeling depressed, a gurgling sound entered her ears.
