All she knew was that she had been reborn as a baby, and it seemed she didn't have any special advantages. Thinking about this made her feel a little discouraged.
Which young person in the 21st century hasn't dreamed of time travel, using cheat codes to dominate the world and become incredibly powerful?
It's a pity, she was just a country girl with nothing, and her life was very hard.
The thought of her nickname for this lifetime made Qian Xiao feel like she was going to die. How could such a rustic name be associated with a beautiful girl like her?
However, when she thinks about her family in this life, she feels content. Although her parents in this life are different from those in her previous life, their love for her is no less. In particular, she has a whole family of lovely relatives, which makes her especially content.
"that……"
Qian Xiao was startled by the sudden sound and quickly turned her head to see who was speaking in the room. However, she forgot that she had a head injury, and the movement aggravated the wound, causing her to hiss.
Even this faint sound woke up Li Guizhi, who was exhausted and asleep against the kang cabinet.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?"
"Mommy, my dear, you're awake! You scared me to death! If anything had happened to you, I would have gone with you. Does your head hurt? Are you nauseous? Are you hungry? Is there anything else that's bothering you?"
"Mother," Qian laughed, only to realize that her voice sounded just like that of a kitten, completely lacking her usual strong and resonant tone.
Upon hearing the word "mother," Li Guizhi's eyes instantly welled up with tears. She was truly terrified, afraid that she would never hear that word again.
"Hey, hey, daughter, your mother is here."
Qian Xiao felt that she couldn't make a sound because her throat was too dry, and her mouth tasted bitter. She continued to ask for water to quench her thirst and dilute the bitterness in her mouth.
"Hey, Mom will get you some water right away. You can't just wait around like that, or you'll end up with a huge gash on your head."
Li Guizhi's trip to the kitchen to get water startled the rest of the family. Soon, the whole family, except for the little ones, was in Qian Xiao's room.
"How's Erdan? Does your head still hurt?" This was the question asked by the simple-minded second uncle.
"Erdan, are you hungry? How about your aunt goes and gets you some porridge to drink first?"
"Erdan, tell me who hurt you. Tell your third uncle, and he'll avenge you."
Auntie patted Uncle: "You'd better shut up. Can't you see how weak Erdan is? Let Erdan eat something first."
The old lady brought in millet porridge, pushed aside everyone in the room, and sat down on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed): "Erdan, are you hungry? This is millet porridge that Grandma cooked. It's so oily that it's almost cooked through. Have a few sips first."
"Old Zhang said that since you were unconscious for two days and your stomach is empty, you can't eat too much at once. You have to take it one step at a time."
As he spoke, he picked up a spoon and scraped a spoonful of rice oil from the surface, saying that this stuff was very good for the stomach: "Here, open your mouth and see if it's hot."
Despite being a rural woman, Grandma Qian was very particular about hygiene. Unlike other adults, she never chewed up dry food and fed it to her children, saying that it was unsanitary and would make the children sick.
Qian Xiao always felt that her grandmother was definitely educated and knowledgeable; she was not the kind of old rural woman who couldn't read a single word.
Qian Xiao opened her mouth and took a sip. The millet porridge was so thin that it could be drunk like water and fill her stomach. At this moment, she felt weak all over. When she heard that she had been unconscious for two days, she knew that she must have been hungry. No matter what, she decided to eat first.
The old lady fed her granddaughter half a bowl and then stopped, wiping her mouth and saying, "Eat this much first, and continue later. Eating too much at once is not good."
"Tell Grandma where else your body aches, and if you feel dizzy."
Qian Xiao subconsciously wanted to shake her head, but then remembered the injury on the back of her head: "My body doesn't hurt, but my head is okay, just a little dizzy. Grandma, I'm fine, don't worry."
"Tell Grandma what happened to you? Do you remember?" Old Zhang had said that since the injury was on his head, he might be a little confused when he woke up and couldn't remember anything for a while, but he would be fine after resting.
Thinking back to the moment she fell, she twisted her body hard to look at the person behind her, otherwise she wouldn't have been hit on the back of the head by the big rock. You know, a head injury can be fatal.
"It was Wang Xuewen who pushed me; I saw it clearly."
"It really was him, little brat. I knew my Erdan would never fall by himself. Why weren't you on guard? If we had found you any later, you would have drowned."
"Did he push you alone? Did anyone else see it?"
"It seems... there are still people in the grass behind. They must be with Wang Xuewen and his group. I caught a big fish with my back to them. My fishing rod wasn't working well, so I thought I'd play it for a while longer and didn't notice if anyone was behind me."
"By the time I heard the sound, it was too late to turn around. Using the force, I turned around and looked behind me, and saw Wang Xuewen with a sinister expression on his face."
"I figured he was trying to kill me. The river in our village is fast-flowing, and the water is cold today. If you fall in suddenly, your legs will definitely cramp. I didn't expect to fall so hard that I sank straight to the bottom, and my head hit a big rock."
"But before I passed out, I saw a figure on the water. I guess he was still standing on the riverbank watching."
Having gained memories of his past life, Qian Xiao's thinking is much clearer than that of a real seven-year-old. You can tell from Wang Xuewen's facial expression that this person has definitely done a lot of bad things, and it's definitely not just petty theft.
Qian Laosan added, "When I got there, the river was all red. Those bastards definitely wanted to kill someone, otherwise anyone would have helped to pull the person out."
The old woman was so angry that her hands trembled. What kind of grudge was this? No matter how much the villagers argued, at most they would tear each other apart, but no one would think of killing someone. This was too cruel. How old was that child?
Qian Xiao quickly grabbed her grandmother's hand: "Grandma, don't be too angry. Your health is important." If the old lady gets sick from anger, it will be a big problem.
The old woman pounded her chest, feeling a bit better before speaking: "These children are too cruel. I've never heard of anyone thinking of killing someone over a small conflict, old man?"
Old Man Qian instructed his children: "Third son, go to the brigade to borrow a bicycle, then go to the commune to report a murder. Didn't you see those kids who ran away? You can report them together."
This is no child's play; it's a matter of life and death. If someone like this existed in the village, who would dare let their child go out? He'd want to kill someone at the slightest provocation.
