Chapter 1 Escape

"Wow wow wow wow..." Mu Xiu was awakened by a baby's cry. When she opened her eyes, the strong pain made her unable to help but reach out to her painful forehead.

"Hiss, it hurts so much." Mu Xiu took a breath. She actually touched a hard bag larger than an egg. When she was still in a daze, a strange and anxious female voice called out: "Xiu, Xiu..."

Before Mu Xiu could come to her senses, the female voice rang on her head again, but the voice sounded very weak.

"Xiu, are you okay? Show! Come here!"

Mu Xiu raised her head... Her posture was in close contact with the earth at this time...

The first thing that came into her eyes was a dirt kang made of mud, which looked very dilapidated. There was a thin woman with pale face, messy hair and sweat on her forehead.

Mu Xiu just glanced at him and was sure that she had never seen this woman before.

But how did she know her name? Before Mu Xiu could ask, the woman's voice rang again.

"Xiu, come here to mom, hurry up and find a place to hide with your little Nannan. Go quickly, Xiu, you are all counting on you if your sister can survive." Zhou Shuilian's eyes fell anxiously on Mu Xiu, with a hint of panic in her tone.

Just now, Mu Xiu fell to the ground as soon as she entered the door. She called out a few times, but there was no movement. Zhou Shuilian dragged her weak body and moved to the edge of the kang. Mu Xiu woke up, and Zhou Shuilian then felt slightly relieved.

But at this moment, Zhou Shuilian didn't bother to comfort Mu Xiu, who was holding a big bag on his head, because there were more important things to do.

A baby wrapped in a torn dress that could not be seen clearly was carried by Zhou Shuilian and handed it towards Mu Xiu.

Mom??Sister??What do you care about??

Mu Xiu's mind was blank, but she couldn't help but get up from the ground and reached out to take the baby. As soon as Zhou Shuilian let go, Mu Xiu felt that his hand sank and almost threw the baby to the ground.

This baby is so heavy? Mu Xiu was not prepared for a moment, and her whole upper body leaned forward, and she was almost suppressed and let her hands go away.

No way! Mu Xiu looked down at the baby in his arms. The baby wrapped in his old clothes was not in short lengths, and was pitifully thin and had little bits of meat all over his body.

However, as his vision shifted, Mu Xiu suddenly widened his eyes and his eyes fell on his arms holding the baby. Is that still called an arm? It was clearly two bones wrapped in only one layer of skin.

What made her even more ridiculous was that this was actually her arm! When did she become so thin? What the hell is going on?

"Show, it's all my mother's fault. I'll make you fall so hard. You should hug me with my little Nannan first. You will come back when your father gets home. Go away quickly, hurry up!" After the woman who had just finished giving birth on the bed said this, she was anxious and tired, and her eyelids rolled up and fainted.

Mu Xiu was holding the baby, stunned. She was dreaming, right, she must be dreaming.

But soon a sharp female voice came from the back window, reminding her that this was not a dream.

"Mom, I just heard the crying of a child. Could it be that the second child gave birth to a child?"

"How is it possible? How can she not hurt when giving birth?" Another old voice rang out.

"Mom, the second family has given birth to a few girls. Rebirth is as simple as laying an egg. Let's go and have a look, so that the second uncle will blame us when he comes back."

"He dares!" The old female voice was a little sharp.

"Mom, let's go and have a look. Don't let another loss of money be born. I'm so scared that I dare not speak." When the sharp female voice said this, she faintly felt a little gloating in her tone.

"Yumei, you are right. If you really give birth and still be a girl, you have to drown quickly. There is no extra food at home to treat the freak."

After he finished speaking, Mu Xiu heard the footsteps of the two of them walking from behind and forward towards the door here.

Mu Xiu was surprised. What era is this, and there is also the idea of ​​favoring boys over girls. In addition... Isn't it illegal to kill people? She looked at the woman who fainted on the bed. She didn't know anything at the moment, but when she heard the two women talked, she didn't look like good people. She should listen to her first. After all, this mother wouldn't cheat her child, so Mu Xiu held the child and ran towards the door.

Just when Mu Xiu had just run to the gate, he didn't forget to look at the back, and saw the figures of two women turning from behind the house to the front of the door. They did not notice Mu Xiu who had left with the child in his arms, but walked straight into the house.

Soon, two screams rang out in the room.

Mu Xiu hugged the baby in her arms, rushed out of the door, looked around, and ran forward along the path not far away. In this way, even if she didn't know the road, she could sneak along the same path and see if the woman said that her father was going back.

After finally walking out of the path, Mu Xiu was panting and squatting on the ground. She couldn't walk anymore.

Mu Xiu was panting while looking around, and she found a broken thatched house with half of the roof not far ahead.

There must be no one living in such a dilapidated house. Mu Xiu took a deep breath, stood up, walked towards the house staggeringly, hid in this dilapidated thatched house first, and wait until it gets dark.

Mu Xiu pushed open the dilapidated door, and a "creak" suddenly came from the silence, which scared Mu Xiu. It turned out that this was the sound from the door.

Mu Xiu calmed down and slowly reached into it. He looked inside. The room was different from the outside. It was quite clean inside. It was noon now. The bright sunlight shone into the house along the broken parts of the roof, dispelling the fear in Mu Xiu's heart.

Fortunately, there was sunshine, otherwise Mu Xiu would still be a little scared if she had stayed in such a house. At this moment, Mu Xiu was very tired, his steps were heavy, and a dull pain came from his head.

Mu Xiu didn't care about why such a dilapidated house was not only very tidy, but also had daily necessities... She just wanted to rest now.

Mu Xiu walked into the house with a breath, put the baby gently on the neat bed in the house, then turned around and closed the door.

Until this time, Mu Xiucai breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at the baby lying on the bed, and saw that the baby's wrinkled face was tightly closed, silently.

In Mu Xiu's perception, the baby is a creature that keeps crying. How come it is so quiet? Could it be... Mu Xiu's trembling fingers slowly approach the bottom of the baby's nose. After feeling the faint breath, he breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that the baby was just asleep.
