The sky gradually darkened, making it impossible to find anything to eat in the forest. Wen Xiu had no choice but to somersault in the kitchen and finally found the three sweet potatoes her previous self had hidden in the stove to avoid the plunder of Old Li's Wife and Wife.
Wenxiu had roasted all the sweet potatoes, and 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, Wen Xiu, who had climbed onto the brick bed with a full stomach, was troubled. 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!"
The Tong Tong was so frightened by the thunder that it started to tremble. It kept crawling into Wen Xiu's arms. At this moment, the scholar suddenly remembered if the Tong Tong had been hurt by the fall. She pulled her daughter into her embrace and whispered, "Tong Tong, did you fall somewhere today?"
The Tong Tong Tong began to whimper. After a long while, it finally said, "No, mother, I don't feel any pain."
The child would not lie. The Tong Tong Tong said this simply because it didn't want Wen Xiu to worry, but at the same time, it exposed the fact that he had been injured.
Since Wenxiu was in trouble, what should he 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!" The tree had already been shown to his sister. It was only slightly bruised, so it shouldn't be too bad. He decided not to tell Wenxiu about it, lest his mother worry about him.
When Wen Xiu heard this, she immediately picked up the Tong Tong and pulled open her trousers. Borrowing the lightning's light, she could clearly see the bruises on the Tong Tong's knees. You call this fine? Green and swollen, it would be a problem if he didn't spread the silt.
Poor child!
Li Lu, this inhumane son of a b * tch!
Wen Xiu scolded Li Lu in her heart. She got off the bed and used her memories to find a tattered oil-paper umbrella at the corner of the wall. Then, she 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!
"Tree, 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 this, under the reluctant gazes of the two children, Wenxiu carried a tattered oil-paper umbrella and braved the pouring rain as she hurried out of the courtyard and headed towards the forest.
In her previous life, Wenxiu's profession was disgraceful, but she had no 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!
Wenxiu had never enjoyed the taste of kinship, so when Tree and Tong Tong returned her mother to her, she could feel the kinship between her original body and her child.
She was surprised and excited!
The bruises on the Tong Tong Tong's knees were somewhat severe, and he had to apply the blood circulation and remove the blood stasis herb. 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 been back for four hours. Tong Tong was afraid of thunder and the fear that his mother would not come back. He cupped his hands around his 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?"
The Tong Tong Tong was a bit sleepy, but he didn't see that his mother couldn't sleep, nor did he dare to sleep. Both his hands shook Li Mu's arm, and his voice was filled with 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! "
Tung Tong saw that her brother had ignored her for a long time. Her small face stiffened as she wrinkled her nose. She raised her hand to wipe 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 …"
"Tong Tong!" 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 …"
Although he didn't know where his mother had gone, he clenched his teeth and carried his sister onto his back. "Tong Tong, hug your big brother tight. I'll take you to your mother right 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 out. The ice-cold Wen Xiu who was drenched in cold felt her heart warm up. The danger she had just taken was worth it!
