"Ouch--"
The system suddenly yelled.
"You big bad guy, why are you pinching me—"
"Hehe, because it hurts when I pinch myself."
Yan Xia awkwardly touched her head; she hadn't expected it to be true.
"If you keep doing this, I'm not going to talk to you anymore. Do you want to do the mission or not?"
The system's belly bounced with anger, making Yan Xia want to reach out and ruffle it.
And that's exactly what she did.
It wasn't until the system teetered on the brink of exploding that Yan Xia straightened up and stood ramrod straight.
"My esteemed Lord Commander, I am willing to undertake this mission. What is the reward?"
Of course, she got a reward of making a ball.
She might as well take her 3,500 yuan job, so that she can buy a 20-square-meter apartment in 20 years.
"Of course there are rewards. I'm not the kind of system that exploits its host."
Her sweet, childlike voice is incredibly cute.
"I am the Childbirth System. Literally, it means that you need to go to every world to have children. As long as you have a child, regardless of gender, you will get points. Points can be exchanged for items in the store. When a world ends, you will be rewarded with money based on your performance."
"This money will be credited to your account once you've completed all the tasks."
Yan Xia's eyes lit up instantly.
"You mean, I can come back to this world? I'm not dead??"
The system was speechless.
"Stupid host, how can I bind to you if you die?"
"If I go on a mission, what will happen to my body? Won't it stink without a soul?"
The milk bun is very tired.
"You're not dead, so how can you stink? The time we use for missions is different from your world. One second here might be a lifetime away in those worlds. So by the time we finish all our missions, the sun probably hasn't even risen yet here."
Yan Xia breathed a sigh of relief, her expression turning serious.
"Alright, let's get started on the mission. Stop dawdling, I need to make money!!"
Little Fatty immediately activated the teleportation array.
Suddenly, a white light appeared, and Yan Xia's eyes were stung by the intense light. She closed her eyes and felt dizzy. About ten minutes later, Yan Xia slowly opened her eyes.
She was lying on a pile of straw. The floor of the room was wet and muddy, and water was dripping sparsely from the dilapidated roof above her, wetting the straw and giving off a musty smell. Even though Yan Xia was used to hardship, she had never seen such a scene.
Her brows furrowed slightly.
[Little Fatty, what's going on? Why would such a poor family have a child? Is there some kind of inheritance to go through with pots and pans?]
Yan Xia frantically called for the system in her mind.
However, the system was dumbfounded.
[Where am I? Wasn't I supposed to take you to a world of domineering CEOs? How did we end up in ancient times? Oh no, something's gone wrong...]
Fat Tongzi's voice grew softer and softer.
Yan Xia was speechless. The two of them had been arguing in her mind for a full hour before she finally accepted the situation with a sense of despair.
It turns out that this unreliable system was brand new and working for the first time, so the teleportation array accidentally added a garbled character and entered it wrong, sending her to a fictional world.
The original owner was also named Yan Xia. She was a girl who grew up in Baihua Village. At the age of fourteen, her parents married her off to the Chen family in the same village.
The head of the Chen family is Chen Duoliang. He and Chen Lishi have three children. The eldest son is named Chen Shoujia and has two sons. The second son is the original owner's man, Chen Shouguo. He and the third son, Chen Shouzhu, are twins.
At first, Chen Li was quite kind, because the original owner of the body was pregnant as soon as she married into the family and gave birth to five children in total. Among them, the eldest son and the second daughter were twins, and the third son, the fourth daughter, and the youngest son were triplets.
The original owner had a difficult childbirth when she gave birth to triplets. Although the children were born safely, she could never get pregnant again.
From then on, Chen Lishi became increasingly harsh on her. She made her do laundry and cook before dawn, working harder than an ox, eating less than a chicken, and sleeping later than a dog. After more than ten years of this torment, the original owner became as thin as a monkey, looking exactly like a refugee. If you ask why the original owner's husband didn't care, he joined the army in the third year of their marriage and never came back.
According to the memories transmitted by the system, when the original owner was twenty-five years old, her husband died on the battlefield and his body was never found. After the bad news came, this poor girl had an increasingly difficult life in the Chen family. Chen Lishi kicked her out of the side room and let Chen Jinbao, the eldest grandson of the Chen family, occupy her room. The original owner could only live in this dilapidated woodshed. The woodshed was right next to the outhouse. It was hot and smelly in the summer and so cold in the winter that she couldn't sleep. The original owner's hands were covered with frostbite.
If it were just physical suffering, that would be one thing, since the original owner was a pushover by nature. But the entire Chen family were villains, from the oldest to the youngest. They beat and scolded the original owner and her children every day. The boys were treated like laborers, and the girls were treated worse than servants.
The original owner never thought of resisting and worked hard without complaint, but was finally beaten to death by her mother-in-law at the age of thirty-one.
She wasn't even given a proper burial after her death; the Chen family threw her body into a mass grave where wild dogs ate it until only bones remained.
The original owner's children, the sons, were exploited by the Chen family as laborers their whole lives and eventually worked themselves to death. The daughters were either married off to old men with high dowries or sold into brothels.
Yan Xia was stunned by this memory.
She could feel the overwhelming hatred emanating from this body.
"Now you know how to hate, but why didn't you protect yourself and your child when you were alive? Fine, since I've taken over your body, I'll take revenge for you from now on. You can go and reincarnate in peace."
As soon as he finished speaking, his heavy body suddenly felt lighter, and a barely perceptible white shadow flew into the sky.
Yan Xia shook her head.
"There's always a reason why someone is pitiful..." she murmured to herself.
[Host, you've transmigrated on the very day the original owner was beaten to death. Your mother-in-law will soon come to the woodshed to wake you up for work, and then you'll see the original owner's corpse. You need to find a way to escape this place, then marry a rich man or a landlord, have his children, and complete your tasks. Here's a beginner's gift pack for you.]
Xiao Feitong's voice was apologetic. It rummaged through the space for a long time, and then a semi-transparent panel appeared in front of Yan Xia.
[Welcome to the Childbearing System No. 250. Since this is your first time completing a mission, the system will give you a newbie gift pack. Please select the options according to their numbers.] A mechanical voice announced.
[Number One: Alluring Eyes. Anyone possessing this ability will find their host, regardless of gender, greatly increased, with a high probability of falling in love at first sight.]
[Number Two: Skin as smooth as jade. Possessing this item will make the host's skin flawless, like white jade, with a touch that is utterly captivating.]
[Number Three: Melodious and Pleasant to the Ear. Possessing this ability will make the host's voice incredibly beautiful, even their singing will be perfectly tuned.]
[Number Four: Slender Waist - Possessing this item will prevent the host's waist from gaining weight, ensuring it remains permanently slender and free of any excess fat (except during pregnancy)]
[Number Five: Strength Like an Ox. Possessing this item will grant the host terrifying strength, enough to kill an ox with a single blow (strength is still developing; not recommended).]
