Chapter 2: The child’s father is a poison cultivator?
Xie Zaozao hung listlessly on the sword, listening to the system babble about introducing itself.
"Although the idea of running away with the baby is specific to the female protagonist, the original storyline in our world was that the original protagonist accidentally slept with the male protagonist, Lin Zhaoyu, and then was persecuted by Song Qiaoyue and fled. Five years later, she returned with the baby and reunited with Lin Zhaoyu. After overcoming various difficulties, they finally got together."
Xie Zaozao: “…”
Does this mean that not only did she give birth to a child in a confused manner, she also had to raise the child by herself for five years, then be abused by the child's father, and then had to forgive him, let this man live freely for five years, and finally have both a wife and a child?
Just because you arched your back in bed five years ago?
System: "That's right, that's right, isn't it a surprise!"
"……Oh."
"Anyway, now that you've transmigrated here, you have to listen to me. Anyway, due to some unexpected circumstances, the male protagonist was completely unaware that he had slept with the original owner, and he even allowed Song Qiaoyue to trap you in a den of wolves. There's definitely something wrong with this plot, and we have to turn it around!"
“…”
"Someone wants to kill you! Can you please react a little?"
"Sleepy."
"...So, our 'Pregnant Heroine's Happy Ending' system will definitely help you put the plot back on track, so that you and the hero can finally have a happy ending."
The system forces the explanation and warms up itself.
Xie Zao Zao asked: "Can I ask a question?"
"sure."
"You told me before that the original owner brought in the drugged tea and made Lin sleep with her, right? You call this a coincidence?"
"Uh, don't be picky about words."
"And the drugged male protagonist is lucky enough not to beat up this woman, but he still wants to marry her?"
"She was like this at first, but after raising a child, she became better! She's gentle, smart, clever, and can handle being beaten."
"My master said that a woman becomes stupid for three years after she gets pregnant. How could she raise a child and make him smart?"
System: "No, no, no, that's not the point. The point is that they had no connection before, but because of the child, they slowly fell in love with each other. This is a touching story! Don't you feel moved?"
"No such emotion."
The system suddenly collapsed. It has been making systems for some years and has seen all kinds of hosts, but this is the first time it has encountered such a cold-hearted host. It feels like it has no feelings at all. What kind of love world is this without emotions!
It tried to make the woman waver, looking at Xie Zaozao pitifully: "But, but if you don't do this, you will die."
Xie Zaozao: "What if we finish the storyline?"
"After the story is over, we will live happily together and no one will die~~~"
A picture appeared in Xie Zaozao's eyes. On the second day of their reunion, she hung the male protagonist in the room, and then the child took possession of all the property in the Lin Mansion. She flew on a sword to the bottom of the waterfall to practice. If anyone came to disturb her, she would splash them with the waterfall water.
Thinking about it this way, it’s not impossible to be patient.
To be on the safe side, she asked one more question: "Can I hit the male lead?"
"You can't beat him. He's from the Lin family and a leader among the younger generation."
What I mean is that if you are better than him, you can try to fight him.
Xie Zao Zao curled the corners of her mouth. Although she didn't feel happy, she would still subconsciously curl the corners of her mouth when she was sure of victory but was looked down upon by others.
It’s not certain who will be able to beat whom.
"So what should we do next?"
"Next, you escaped briefly and took your children to find a small village with beautiful mountains and rivers to settle down."
"Oh." Xie Zao Zao climbed up from his sword and looked around limply.
"With the child... um, where's the child?"
System: “!!!!” Still in the wolf’s den!!!
*
A flash of sword light returned to the wolf's den. The fire here had become extremely large, and thick smoke was billowing out from inside.
Song Qiaoyue in front of him was laughing loudly at the thick smoke: "Xie Zaozao, you're done! Hahahahahaha——Ah!!!"
Xie Zaozao moved her fingers slightly, and the thick smoke and flames immediately changed direction and rushed towards Song Qiaoyue.
The flames burned Song Qiaoyue directly. The tip of her carefully combed bun was on fire and kept smoking.
Song Qiaoyue screamed, turned around and ran away: "Where is the river? Where is the water???"
She ran all the way to a stream in the mountains and threw her head into it, putting out the fire. Then, with smoke coming out of her head, she was taken away by her followers while crying.
"Don't tell my cousin about what happened today!!" she cried and threatened her followers.
The follower thought, yes, whether it is murder or arson, or playing with fire and getting burned, we can't say anything, so we might as well just say nothing.
They exchanged glances with each other and silently shut their mouths.
When Xie Zao Zao arrived in front of the wolf's den, the fire there had been extinguished and the thick smoke had been taken away by Song Qiaoyue's head.
I just can't hear the child crying.
The system was already crying: "My poor child—died just like that—Host, would you consider adopting one so that the story can continue?"
Before he finished speaking, Xie Zao Zao leaned over and went in.
There was no movement inside.
The smoke blocked the view, and I could only vaguely see the small body lying motionless in the rotten straw pile.
Xie went over early and saw the chubby little cub lying face down on the ground. His curled-up little fist was only the size of a steamed bun, huddled there in a small ball, with insects and ants crawling all over his body.
She felt a headache and a picture suddenly appeared in her mind.
It was a red swaddling cloth, with a chubby and cute baby wrapped in it, held in the arms of a young woman. Then, the baby was pierced by a sword, and both the adult and the child died at the same time.
That was her mother and her newly born brother.
The Xie family died tragically.
After she practiced the ruthless way, these images would still appear one by one, but they could no longer shake her mind.
It's just that I feel a little uncomfortable.
She bent down and picked up the baby, brushed off the dust on him, and thought about finding a place to bury him. It would not be good to leave the body exposed in the wilderness.
As a result, the child just touched her skin and suddenly shivered and let out a weak cry.
Xie Zao Zao was startled. She looked down and saw that the child was staggering and could not move much. His eyes were not open wide. He just leaned against her chest and stayed there without moving.
The small hand grasped a strand of her hair and refused to let go.
Xie Zao Zao looked down at him. He was not white at all, and not as cute as his brother. His face was red, a little wrinkled, with a little blood on his cheeks, and one eye was big and one was small.
“…Why is it so ugly…”
Xie Zaozao didn't care much about her appearance and didn't dress up much, but in her previous life, any cultivator who saw her would praise her every day.
The original owner looked very similar to her. Even her love rival Song Qiaoyue had to admit that she was the most beautiful maid in the Lin Mansion, so she wanted to get rid of the original owner.
So this is what the child looks like?
How ugly must Young Master Lin be? How did the original owner manage to sleep with him? And drugged him? He must be blind.
When Xie Zao Zao came out with the child in her arms, the system spoke again: "Host, I have contacted a system with a female protagonist who gave birth to multiple babies. It said that its female protagonist accidentally gave birth to multiple babies, which doesn't match the title. I can lend one to you for adoption—"
Xie Zaozao: "He's not dead."
System: "Not dead? Great! I'll return the child."
"But he seems to be turning blue."
She looked down at the child with some confusion. After crying on the ground, he curled up in her arms and didn't move. Now his breathing was so weak that he could hardly feel it.
"Could it be that he's frozen?" the system hesitated. "His lips are turning purple."
"It's not cold."
Xie Zaozao looked at her long skirt, which was torn to tatters but still clearly summer clothing, and her bare feet, and did not feel the slightest bit of cold.
The system had never raised a child before: "Is that because they're hungry?"
A few minutes later, the system watched in amazement as Xie put the child down early and went down to the river to fish.
System: "..." Are you preparing to grill fish for your newborn baby?
What is it bound to? Is it a normal human?
The system thought silently, why not just not return the borrowed child first, in case the child raising here fails, it can still take over.
Xie Zaozao discovered something was wrong as soon as she went down to the river. The river water had already formed a thin layer of ice, proving that it was at least winter. She no longer felt any difference between cold and heat.
But the child was so cold.
Are you so fragile, kid?
She clumsily tore off the hem of her own dress to wrap the child and tried to make a sling that her mother used to carry her younger brother.
But she never succeeded. Sometimes she wrapped the child in her arms like a mummy, and sometimes she strangled the child by the neck.
The system couldn't bear it any longer: "Host, what are you going to do to this poor child?"
Xie Zao Zao fiddled with it for a long time and finally made an ugly sling. He wrapped the child and carried him in his arms, but he didn't have time to show off to the system.
The system screamed, "Upside down, upside down! It's fallen!"
Xie Zao Zao sighed, why is it so troublesome?
After struggling for a long time, she finally wrapped the child properly in her arms. After being fiddled with for a long time, the child did not cry or make a fuss. Instead, he regained some energy and tried to open his eyes to look at his mother.
Unfortunately, I couldn’t open my eyes wide. After swaying for a while, I fell asleep again in a daze.
"Then host, let's move on to the next stage of the story. Let's find a beautiful place to settle down and raise a child—"
"There's still one thing that hasn't been resolved."
"What's up?"
"Are you sure this child's father isn't a poison cultivator?"
“???”
"My chest has been aching ever since I gave birth to this child." It must be poisoning.
The system also began to doubt, is Lin Zhaoyu a poison cultivator? I haven't heard of it.
At this time, the Lin family was facing a formidable enemy because of Xie Zao Zao's disappearance.
