Xia's mother was an orphan girl that Xia's father rescued during the chaos of war. She had no relatives or elders, and her two children were only thirteen or fourteen years old, too young.
Even if the superior said that the eldest son could inherit the father's official position, it wouldn't be now.
Without the breadwinner, how can a widowed mother with two young children survive?
Left with no other choice, she took a large inheritance and returned to her husband's hometown with her children.
They thought that the Xia family in their hometown was their last resort, but Xia's mother never expected that her return would be like a lamb entering a tiger's den!
Xia's father was the second son. Both his parents had passed away, and the only ones left in the village were his eldest brother and his third brother's families.
In fact, they were not related to Xia's father by blood at all—Xia's eldest uncle and Xia's youngest uncle were refugees abandoned by their parents during the chaotic times. Therefore, Xia's grandparents took pity on them and adopted them.
I adopted them, and they turned out to be two ungrateful wretches!
When they returned to the village, their children all caught colds, and a few days later, their son also passed away.
Before Xia's mother could even grieve, her ungrateful uncles came knocking on her door.
They kept saying that all the men in their family had died out, making them an extinct family.
The large inheritance left by Xia's father could not be left to the two women; it could only be passed on to his nephew.
—This is clearly a robbery of the inheritance!
Xia's mother and daughter naturally objected firmly, but how could they, a widow and her daughter, possibly stand up against the strong and robust Uncle Xia and Uncle Xia?
All of his gold, silver, property, house deeds, and land deeds were forcibly taken away by the Xia family. He was also driven out of the Xia family's dilapidated old house and forced to go to the mountains near the village to find a cave to escape the cold.
In the dead of winter, the two of them froze to death in the mountains!
In the moments before his death, Xia Chaojin, who had been tormented by illness and hunger to the point of being nothing but skin and bones, was in immense pain.
Is it because she is a girl that she is destined to face bullying without any ability to fight back, and can only be coerced to death?
.
Tongsu watched the entire plot, memorizing every single detail.
"666, what is this mission?"
From now on, all tasks will have only one theme: saving yourself. You can do whatever you want, there are no restrictions, as long as you can free the original owner from a painful end.
"It can't be that simple, can it?" Tong Su said. "For example, the original owner was actually quite good-looking. If she just didn't want to freeze to death, she could have avoided it by becoming a concubine or selling herself into slavery. But would that really work?"
666 scratched his head and chuckled, "Well, doing it this way is certainly in accordance with the rules... but there's a scoring system. Using underhanded methods to complete the task not only makes the task itself frustrating, but also results in significantly fewer reward points."
Therefore, we still need to help the original owner's life get rid of all the past suffering and truly grow up!
Tong Su pondered.
The current point in time is when their widowed mother returned to the village with her children, and their eldest son, Xia Qingzhai, had just died of a serious illness.
When dawn broke, Uncle Xia and his younger brother, upon learning of their nephew's death, went to his door in high spirits to demand the family property.
So now, the first problem she faces is the trouble of inheriting the family property due to the extinction of the family line.
Just then, the door creaked open.
"Ah Jin... your brother is gone..."
Outside the door, a middle-aged woman, exhausted and in pain, was sobbing uncontrollably. Her once beautiful face was now pale and her frail body looked as if she was about to collapse. Tongsu quickly stepped forward to support her: "Mother, where is my brother?"
"Qingzhai, Qingzhai is next door... Come and see him, you've always been the closest of friends since childhood... He, he probably misses you too..."
Tongsu helped the woman into the next room. On the thin wooden bed, a handsome young man lay pale-faced, his eyes closed, his breath gone.
Tong Su was startled.
The original owner's older brother looks exactly like her!
