asters struck, Huzi was the first one who couldn't make it through.Song Dachuan and his wife were able to survive thanks to the care of the Lao Zhang family. As they fled with the Zhang Jia Village, t...Hui Niang's voice gradually faded, followed by a sigh from the man.

"Get some sleep! Let's discuss this with Ripple tomorrow. This affects her entire future life."

"Okay, sleep!"

Then the voice fell silent. Lian Ri looked at the lifeless curtains and finally turned her head to close her eyes, beginning to receive the memories of the original body.

Her original name was Song Lianyi, the eldest daughter of Song Dachuan and Zhang Huiniang. She was fourteen years old this year. She had a younger brother below her, who was the tiger cub mentioned by the couple just now. Originally, Zhang Huiniang was carrying twins, both boys.

But because the first child was a daughter, Song Dachuan's mother looked down on Hui Niang in every way, saying she couldn't give birth to a son and wanted her second son to have an heir. Later, when Zhang Hui Niang became pregnant again, she said that Hui Niang was carrying a daughter anyway, and nothing went according to her wishes.

Before the child is born, no one knows whether it's a boy or a girl. Zhang Huiniang can only endure this uncertainty.

Fortunately, Song Dachuan was still responsible. He said that Hui's pregnancy was a boy, so he wouldn't let his mother-in-law torment his daughter-in-law. Now, this angered Old Song even more. While she didn't make things difficult for Zhang Hui on the surface, she privately harassed her.

In the heart of winter, Zhang Huiniang, who was eight months pregnant, was sent to wash clothes by the river. Sadly, she slipped on the ice and fell, causing her to bleed immediately.

Fortunately, there were other women washing clothes by the river. They immediately helped carry her back. Then, acquaintances went to town to find Song Dachuan, a man who did odd jobs, and also asked for a doctor because the barefoot doctor in the village wasn't capable of saving someone like this.

When Song Dachuan arrived home with the doctor, Hui Niang was already on her deathbed. The baby hadn't been born either. She was clearly dying. The midwife who had been called in was helpless and could only advise them to prepare for the funeral. Song Dachuan's eyes turned red with anxiety, he pulled the old doctor inside and begged him to save Hui Niang.

Fortunately, Song Dachuan still had some discerning taste. The old doctor he invited was indeed skilled. He cut a thin slice of ginseng and used it to keep Zhang Huiniang alive. Then, he started acupuncture, stimulating her to wake up, and only then did the difficult labor begin.

Hui Niang opened her eyes and saw her husband. She then gathered her strength and began to give birth.

Because Hui Niang's nutrition during pregnancy did not keep up, the child was not big to begin with. Because it was twins, the child became even smaller. When the first child was born with difficulty, the child had already suffocated. The second child was born with weak breathing.

Song Dachuan, a man of three feet, held the tiny corpse of his child and knelt in front of the upper room door, crying out that it was his mother who had harmed him, leaving him without an heir. And not just one son, but two! If Hui Niang suffered any harm, no one should think of living peacefully anymore.

At that time, Old Song hid upstairs and didn't even dare to leave his room. When Old Master Song learned that his second son's wife was carrying two boys, he slapped his own wife and told her to take out the silver. He insisted on rescuing his daughter-in-law and the other child no matter what.

He knew that if both of his sons were gone, he had no idea what his second son would do. The family would be completely ruined.

Because the silver was a great help, and Zhang Huiniang couldn't bear to worry about her son, she finally managed to get through it. However, this also injured her body, and she could never have children again.

But the only surviving son, because of his congenital weakness, also cost as much money as running water. The first month he barely survived. Whenever Tiger Cub wasn't well, Song Dachuan's face would pull long and thin, and his eyes looked at the other people in the family differently, especially Old Song Shi. He was afraid of this son, and Old Song also sighed all day long.

Maybe heaven pitied Lady Hui and couldn't bear to see Song Dacao lose his son. Fortunately, Tiger survived, but he needs careful nursing, which costs a lot of money.

But the entire Song family didn't split up. All the family members earned money, and in the end, it all went to Tiger. As time passed, the eldest son, Song Haida, and the third son, Song Dashan, became less happy about this.

The eldest son is already married with two sons and a daughter. The third son has not yet married, and the family’s silver is running out. They are all subtly hinting to their own mother when he will be able to marry a wife.

But Old Song wasn't stupid. She knew that if she separated the second son's family at this time, the second son would be left with no money. If he couldn't support his only son, Tiger, their entire family would suffer. So, she came up with a wicked plan and turned her attention to the eldest daughter of the second son's family, Song Lianyi.

She wanted to sell her granddaughter to a wealthy family as a maidservant. This way, she could get money to appease the second son's family and also give her youngest son a bride. But if this were to be revealed, not only would the second son not agree, but her own father wouldn't either.

Farmers generally won't sell their children unless they are facing starvation. If a family does something like that, they will be ostracized and no one will want to have anything to do with them.

So Old Song and Lao San discussed tricking their original body into being sold, then pretending they were abducted. After all, Lianyi was already ten years old; besides being too thin, she still looked quite decent.

When the two were plotting, they were overheard by the original person behind the house. The child was so scared that she almost cried. Her legs went weak and she hid in the firewood pile in the backyard until sunset when Song Dachuan came back. Then, she walked back to the house with her frozen limbs and cried to Song Dachuan that grandma wanted to secretly sell her away.

Song Dachuan already had resentment towards the old Song family. He never expected his own mother would set her sights on his daughter. It was unbearable! He immediately had someone send a message to Zhang Huiniang's parents, asking them to bring their whole family over the next day to cause a scene and fight for his daughter's justice.

Because Zhang Huiniang was born prematurely and almost died, the Song family felt guilty and didn't send any letters to her family. After all, the two families were separated by two villages, and it was the cold winter season. Unless their family was truly out of food and needed to find work, they would usually stay at home.

And Zhang Huiniang's parents had also calculated the date, knowing that Huiniang would be giving birth this month. They were very concerned. Huiniang's mother was worried that her daughter wouldn't give birth to a son this time, which would upset her mother-in-law. She planned to personally serve Huiniang during her confinement period, even preparing food and necessities. However, she fainted after receiving a message from Song Dachuan.

The next day, Zhang's family of over ten people hired a bullock cart and went straight to the Song family. Zhang Huiniang's mother was also hot-tempered, she let her four sons smash open the door of the upper room and directly dragged Lao Song from the kang to the courtyard, beating her head and face with a flurry of blows. Then they shouted so that everyone in the village came to watch the commotion.

People in the village already knew that Old Mrs. Song disliked her son's daughter-in-law and had almost driven Zhang Huilan to death. They knew this kind of trouble was bound to happen sooner or later, so while they watched the commotion, they also warned their own families not to push things too far.

In the end, it was the village head who came forward and appeased Zhang's large family. Taking advantage of the situation, Zhang Hui’s father proposed that Song Dachuan should split off from them, saying he was afraid his daughter would be abused again, as a mother-in-law naturally has an advantage.

At this time, the original body was also crying and kneeling before the village head, telling him that her nanny and younger uncle were going to sell her off so her younger uncle could marry a wife. Then Song Dajun was beaten up by his own second brother.ng major, I'll protect you.
