Downstream, the husband was rescued by a passing general. After waking up, he forgot who he was.

Seeing that the man was tall and strong and still had some strength, the general took him in as a soldier under his command.

My husband followed the general to the battlefield, made great achievements, and gradually became the general's trusted deputy general.

By this time, it was already ten years later.

When my husband became an official, someone started to propose marriage for him.

But the husband said that he had forgotten the past. What if he had already married, wouldn’t he be harming two women?

After rejecting the marriage proposal, the husband began to search for his identity.

He followed the address the general told him and walked up the river.

Perhaps it was because he was in a familiar place that his husband regained his memory.

However, there was another war ahead, and the husband had no time to go and pick up his family in person, so he wrote a letter and asked someone to send it back.

When the mother-in-law received the letter, she learned that her eldest son was not dead and had even made military achievements. She immediately smiled with joy.

But after being happy, the mother-in-law's face turned gloomy again -

If your son is so promising, the royal princess will marry him.

But at home, there is a lowly child bride, which is so embarrassing.

The sister-in-law and brother-in-law came up with ideas together and finally decided to sell Li Xiuniang.

They didn't want to harm Li Xiuniang's children, after all, they were the flesh and blood of the Gu family.

But, as it happened, Li Xiuniang's son was playing around and accidentally fell into the river. When he was fished out, he was already dead.

The daughter was frightened and developed a high fever that night. She died within three days.

The son and daughter were not killed by the Gu family, but Li Xiuniang still couldn't help but resent them - she was busy working in the fields and making money, while the three of her mother-in-law were idle and didn't even bother to take care of the children.

If someone was watching, how could the son fall into the water? How could the daughter be frightened and develop a fever and then die?

"This time! I will never have anything to do with the Gu family again!"

Although she was reluctant to leave her husband, Li Xiuniang could not let go of her resentment.

Gurgle~Gurgle~~

Li Xiuniang was furious and her stomach was growling loudly.

Her vision began to go dark and her legs became shaky.

"We're here! There's a town just up ahead! Once we get to town, there's food!"

Someone in the fleeing group shouted in surprise.

Li Xiuniang, who was dizzy and dazed with hunger, suddenly became energetic.

She and her cousin supported each other, trying to move their heavy steps, step by step towards the town.

However, when they arrived in the town, everyone avoided Li Xiuniang and her group.

For those refugees who cried and shouted that they wanted to sell their children, the residents of the town looked sympathetic but they just said that they felt sorry for them and no one was willing to buy them.

"What are you buying? We're all going to sell people, so why are we buying people? If you buy that girl, will you save the food for her?"

Yes, the people in the small town are indeed better than the refugees.

But in years of famine, the landlords had no surplus food.

"Mom, I want to buy one! I want to buy a girl!"

Amidst the chorus of “I won’t buy it” voices, there was a little baby voice that sounded particularly nice.

Swish!

Including Li Xiuniang, several frail girls all looked at the mother and daughter...
