The woman sobbed softly, "Mother, didn't I give birth to An'an?"

Old Madam Wu snorted coldly and said:

"An'an? What use is that brat?"

In a few days, we'll throw her into the mountains to feed the wolves, so as not to waste food.

Liu Sufen knelt on the ground and pleaded desperately:

"Mom, I work from morning till night every day. I get up before dawn, all for this child."

An'an is also your granddaughter! Can you please not send her away?

Old Madam Wu roared:

"Then your belly should really cooperate! This brat is so annoying!"

Liu Sufen, get out there and do the laundry right now. You're not going to sleep until you've finished.

After you finish washing the clothes, go out and dig some wild vegetables for me. If you want that brat to live, you'll have to work harder."

Liu Sufen sobbed softly as she went into the inner room, saying, "Husband, I'm really not feeling well today. Could I rest for the day? I'll... I definitely will..."

But before she could finish speaking, Wu Dazhi slapped her across the face and said:

"Liu Sufen, can you please stop bothering me?"

"Do you know I was just starting to have an idea, but you've bothered me so much that I've forgotten everything."

Wu Dazhi shoved her hard and said, "Get out of here right now."

Liu Sufen collapsed to the ground and fainted.

Just then, Wu Dazhi heard a knock on the door.

He frowned and said, "Who is it so late at night?"

He opened the door and saw several people standing outside. He frowned and said:

What brings you here? Have you missed out on food again?

My family is very poor right now, we have no rice.

In ancient times, news traveled very slowly, and Wu Dazhi had no idea what had happened in Liu Family Village.

Liu Su'e looked at Wu Dazhi and said, "Third brother-in-law, where is third sister? We've come to see her."

Wu Dazhi looked at them and said, "Your third sister went up the mountain to chop firewood. She'll be back in a bit. Why don't you go up the mountain and look for her?"

Liu Su'e nodded and said, "Okay, let's go look for it on the mountain."

But a pomegranate tree in the yard sighed and said:

"Oh! Liu Sufen is really pitiful, she's still lying on the ground!"

"I'm afraid that as soon as they get up the mountain, Wu Dazhi will hide Liu Sufen."

A jujube tree nearby also sighed helplessly:

"I really couldn't stand it anymore. This family was torturing this mother and daughter to death."

Liu Sufen was already feeling unwell, and then she was pushed, leaving blood all over the ground.

I'm afraid I won't survive this time.

Zhou Wanwan suddenly spoke up, "Uncle, Second Uncle, let's rush in! Third Aunt is in danger!"

Upon hearing this, the eldest and second uncles rushed inside, but Wu Dazhi quickly stopped them, saying, "What are you trying to do? Are you trying to trespass?"

Old Madam Wu also rushed out of the house, saying, "This is outrageous! How dare you come to our house and cause trouble? Do you believe we'll report you to the authorities and have you arrested?"

The uncles immediately started fighting with the Wu family members, who were no match for them and were quickly kicked to the ground.

Liu Dalang shouted, "Wu Dazhi, if anything really happens to my third sister, I'll fight you to the death!"

The Liu Family rushed into the room and saw Liu Sufen lying on the floor, covered in blood. Beside her, a three-year-old girl was crying uncontrollably, "Mommy, wake up, Mommy... Waaah... An'an is scared."

Zhou Wanwan took her pulse and said, "She's pregnant, but with this push, this pregnancy is likely to be lost."

Wu Dazhi looked at Liu Sufen with a face full of horror and said, "Sufen! What happened to you? Why are you lying on the ground?"

An'an, who was standing next to her, cried out:

"Dad's a bad guy, he pushed Mom down, waaaaah..."

"Dad's a bad guy, Mom, don't die, you promised you'd always be with An'an."

Wu Dazhi, head bowed, said, "What nonsense are you spouting, kid?"

Zhou Wanwan ignored them and simply had her eldest uncle carry her third aunt to bed.

Old Madam Zhou cursed and swore:

"She's so dirty, and you're still putting her on the bed? Do you even need this blanket later?"

Does my son want to go to sleep?

Liu Su'e was furious:

"You've messed my sister up like this, and you still want to sleep?"

"Spring and Autumn Annals dreaming! Tie them all up!"

The maids and servants behind Liu Su'e tied up the entire family.

Old Madam Wu screamed, "What do you crazy women want to do?"

Liu Su'e slapped her hard, knocking out Old Madam Wu's teeth. "You've tormented my sister like this, and you still think you're right?"

Old Madam Wu wailed, "Oh no! My tooth has been knocked out! Help!"

Wu Dazhi, standing nearby, pointed at her and said, "You shrew, you shrew! I won't let you get away with this! When I become a high-ranking official, I'll definitely..."

The two old women beside her had already tied Wu Dazhi up, Liu Su'e found a handy wooden stick and lashed it out hard.

She was incredibly strong; she struck him about twenty times, and Wu Dazhi was covered in cold sweat before passing out.

Liu Sufen's condition was extremely critical. Zhou Wanwan cleared everyone out, and the Old Scholar Tree took out all the medicinal herbs he had hidden away.

Polygonatum sibiricum, Ganoderma lucidum, Tianshan Lotus, He Shou Wu ningpoensis, Astragalus membranaceus, Angelica sinensis, Ginseng, Codonopsis pilosula, Pseudostellaria heterophylla, Lycium barbarum, Paeonia lactiflora, Rehmannia glutinosa...

Zhou Wanwan brought them all out at once and spread them over Liu Sufen's body. The herbs turned into a white mist and slowly merged into her body.

After more than an hour, Liu Sufen finally opened her eyes. She looked at Zhou Wanwan and asked, "Little girl, where did you come from?"

Zhou Wanwan was stunned. Didn't her third aunt recognize her?

That makes sense, since Liu Su'e has never been home since her marriage, so naturally she has never seen Liu Sufen.

Zhou Wanwan chuckled and said, "Third Aunt, you're very weak, you should rest well!"

Liu Sufen stared blankly at Zhou Wanwan and asked, "Third Aunt?"

Zhou Wanwan went out and called Liu Su'e. As soon as Liu Su'e came in, she hugged Liu Sufen and said, "Third sister! It's all my fault for being late. If I had come earlier, your baby could have been saved."

Looking at her aggrieved face, Liu Sufen couldn't stop the tears from falling.

"Sister, am I dreaming? I see you, Dad and Mom in my dreams every day."

You have no idea how I've lived these past years.

I really want to go home!

Liu Su'e wiped away her tears and said, "If you want to go home, we'll go home. I'll take you away right now."

Liu Sufen shook her head and said, "No, the Wu family will kill me. I can't go back."

Old Madam Wu heard Liu Sufen's voice from outside and said, "Liu Sufen, tell your sister to let us go, or I'll skin you alive when I recover."

Liu Sufen shuddered and said:

"Sister, why don't we just let them go?"

If you don't let them go, they'll send An'an to the mountains later."
