Ling Xin was annoyed by the chaotic noises, and her heart suddenly stopped.
...The first thought was, she's still alive! ?
"Aunt, please don't beat my younger brothers and sisters..." The soft and sticky voice was helpless and pitiful.
"There is nothing left at home, please leave those two quilts to us, what will we do when it gets cold if you take them away?" The little person continued to beg pitifully.
"Get away, you little bastard, and don't touch me with your dirty hands, or I'll step on your hands and break them!" The sarcastic voice was full of cruelty.
Ling Xin listened in a daze, and suddenly opened her eyes.
What came into view was a dilapidated adobe house with cracks in the corners of the wall. The only wooden window had a broken frame, and through the paper-pasted window one could vaguely see what was happening outside.
Just as she was about to get up, she felt dizzy and a flood of memories that did not belong to her flooded into her mind.
The picture was extremely simple!
Ling Xin was seventeen years old, she was sold to this family surnamed Lin by her natal family to be a stepmother.
She had a bunch of children and a comatose husband.
The comatose husband was named Lin Ziyuan, twenty-two years old. After his original wife went missing, he went out to look for her. A few days later, he was carried back in a coma.
There were a bunch of hungry children at home, and Lin Ziyuan's mother... her mother-in-law, who was in poor health, saw that the family was a burdens, so she spent two taels of silver to buy her home as a daughter-in-law.
On the first day of marriage, they severed their relationship, drove the sick child out of the house, and threw them into the house that was about to collapse.
The original owner was unwilling!
It's naturally not good to treat these burdens well, as being starved, beaten and scolded has become a daily routine.
The entire West County had not seen any rain since the beginning of spring, and the crops had not been harvested, and the difficult days became more and more difficult.
Yesterday, the original owner was also very hungry and dizzy. When she fell down, her head hit a stone and she died...
She's here!
What a terrible plot!
It seems that she has traveled through time in a very fashionable way!
After receiving the plot, she planned to get up and tell these people who were shouting and yelling to get out.
But she almost kowtowed again when she stood up. She's really too hungry and have no strength!
At this time, she felt that her mental power touched another world. Was it the small supermarket she was just about to open?
She didn't have time to study it carefully. With a thought, a small bag of milk appeared in her hand.
After drinking it, her blood was full in an instant.
However... the mother-in-law and the eldest and second sisters-in-law outside were all evil spirits. Without good physical strength, it's impossible to drive them out.
She thought about eating something casually, but suddenly there was a big meat bun in her hand?
At this time, her mental power sensed the space again. In the small steamed bun shop next to the supermarket, the tall steamer was still emitting white hot steam.
"..." It's true that the house of the steamed bun shop was hers, but the shop was rented to someone else.
Eat first and talk later!
She jumped off the bed after swallowing the big meat bun in three mouthfuls.
The door was opened but the person hadn't walked out yet when the cursing and crying suddenly became louder.
Ling Xin's head was pounding.
The yard was not big and overgrown with weeds. Because it hadn't rained for many months, the grass had turned yellow and dry. There were two dirty quilts of unrecognizable color thrown on the ground.
Several skinny little kids who looked like refugees were lying down, kneeling, or crawling, all of them with tears and fear in their eyes.
In front of them was a woman who looked to be around 30 years old, stepping on the little hand of the six-year-old Lin Dabao, the eldest of the Lin family.
The child cried heartbreakingly out of fear and pain, but his voice stopped abruptly when he saw Ling Xin.
With tears in his big eyes, he looked at her with longing and fear.
What a sin!
She was a realistic vicious stepmother.
And the woman who was stepping on Lin Dabao... the original owner's sister-in-law Li Cuilan was looking at her with pride and provocation.
'Oh my bad temper!'
Ling Xin kicked Li Cuilan and knocked her to the ground.
Li Cuilan was hunched over in pain and couldn't move for a long time.
Ling Xin squatted down to check Lin Dabao's little hand.
The black little hands were skin and bones, like chicken claws.
"Move it and see!" She had to make sure his hand was okay.
Lin Dabao was frightened by her gentle voice and tried to pull his hand away quickly. Tears welled up in his eyes and his whole body was shaking.
Ling Xin: "..."
Maybe because of the pain, the boy moved his hands unconsciously to make sure no bones were injured.
"Mom, the third brother's family dared to hit me..." Li Cuilan was in pain and anger and asked her mother-in-law for help.
Ling Xin didn't get used to her. She took two big steps forward and stepped on the back of Li Cuilan's hand on the ground, then stepped hard with her heel several times.
The miserable scream came from Li Cuilan.
The soles of the shoe was thin, and she could feel that Li Cuilan's bones were about to break before she loosened her feet.
When mother-in-law He Yuhua saw this, she thought, this is outrageous.
This money-loser used to be like a mouse seeing a cat when she saw her, so scared that she dared not say a word. Is she so bold now?
"You little whore, born by a mother but not taught by a father, how dare you hit your sister-in-law from your husband's family? I'm going to beat you to death, you little whore?" She picked up the stick and was about to hit Ling Xin.
Ling Xin dodged by just turning sideways, snatched the stick and pointed it at He Yuhua saying unscrupulously: "If you dare to hit me again, I'll beat you too!"
After that, she shook the stick.
He Yuhua staggered back in fear, but was supported by her second daughter-in-law Zhang: "Mom, is my third sister-in-law crazy? How dare a daughter-in-law hit her mother-in-law? This is extremely unfilial."
The villagers were also ashamed: "Filial piety comes first in everything. I'm afraid that Lin Laosan's family has gone crazy."
"Insulting, scolding or beating the mother-in-law is extremely unfilial."
"I won't live anymore!" He Yuhua heard everyone speaking for her, so she sat on the ground and started crying: "How can I find a daughter-in-law for myself? Why am I so miserable... Village chief, please give me some justice!"
The village chief was very busy because he had to leave the village tomorrow to escape the famine. He was dragged here by force and his face was gloomy: "This is what you are wrong..."
"Village chief..." Ling Xin interrupted the village chief directly: "You didn't see how the Lin family treated the children when I was sick and asleep just now, did you?
The so-called eldest aunt used her big feet to step on my Dabao's little hand, and you didn't even help to stop it. Now I'm supporting my child, and you use filial piety to condemn me?"
She glanced coldly at these cold neighbors: "You all have children, who can bear to see their children being beaten?"
The villagers were silent one by one.
They also felt that He Yuhua was going too far.
But this old woman was very powerful. She could stand at the entrance of the village and curse all day and all night long. They couldn't afford to offend her.
"What's wrong with me beating my own grandson?" He Yuhua wanted to tear Ling Xin alive: "Little whore, don't think that..."
"Try to curse me again?" Ling Xin glared at her and raised the stick in her hand.
Villager: "..." This is a scoundrel!
She used to be a bad guy before, beating and scolding the children all day long, not giving them food, and letting the children do all the housework.
Now, she is even worse!
