Qian Duo was beaten half to death and then sent there.
She refused; she wanted to wait for Anno.
She had already made a promise that she would wait for her Anuo.
"A gentleman keeps his promises." This was a saying that Anuo taught her. Even though she was illiterate and not a gentleman, she still wanted to keep that promise.
But her parents disagreed, and Qian Jin beat her severely, leaving her almost dead, and then sent her to someone else's house.
When Qian Duo woke up, she was already the child bride of a fool.
She wanted to die, but she couldn't bear to. What if Anuo came back? She really wanted to see Anuo one more time.
Even if they were ultimately not meant to be, she just wanted to see them one more time.
Take another look.
She lived her life in a daze every day. Fortunately, this fool didn't understand many things and was still young. Although Qian Duo wasn't in good mental health, he patiently taught him slowly. The fool's family members were originally harsh people, but seeing how seriously Qian Duo took care of the fool, they treated him fairly well.
At least she was fed.
Unfortunately, the world has changed.
The year after Anno left, there was a severe drought.
The sun dried up the ground, making the already barren land even more desolate.
The people of Dashan Village survived for half a year by relying on the creatures found in the mountains.
But it's getting hotter and hotter.
The plants on the mountain have all withered.
The animals have disappeared into the deep mountains and have vanished without a trace.
Some people went into the mountains in search of food, but never returned.
The family of the simpleton survived for a year, but they couldn't hold on any longer. When food became completely scarce, they abandoned the simpleton and Qian Duo. The two were locked in the woodshed and starved to death.
There were only two days left until the day I had agreed to meet with Anno.
In the third year of the agreement, Anno returned.
They returned with a thousand taels of silver notes and a considerable amount of food.
He rushed to Qian Duo's house without waiting.
He saw Qian's father and mother, who were starving, as well as Qian Jin and Qian Jin's wife.
"Is there a lot of money?" Anno heard his own voice ask.
"Don't say too much, just give me some water and food first. I'll take you to see Qian Duo later." Qian Jin's eyes lit up when he saw the food, and he immediately rushed over to rummage through An Nuo's bag.
Anno lifted the bundle and asked, "Where's Qian Duo?" He looked around. "Tell me, where did Qian Duo go?"
Qian Duo's parents exchanged a glance, neither of them daring to look at An Nuo.
They actually regretted it. If they hadn't sold more money back then, now that Anno is back, his backpack is full of food, which should have been enough to last them for a while longer. It's a pity they sold more money.
Seeing these people's expressions, Anno's face began to change.
"Is he rich? —" Is he dead?
With the drought so severe, have they simply given up on the money?
“My father married her off,” Qian Jin said nonchalantly. “Look, he got me a wife.”
This was like a bolt from the blue. Anuo's lips trembled as she asked, "Who did you marry?"
His resentful gaze swept over Qian's parents. They broke their promise. They had clearly agreed to his three-year commitment, so why didn't they keep their word?
But at least he's alive. As long as he's alive, that's enough. Anno clenched his fist.
"The Luo family's idiot is on the east side of the village."
With a loud bang, Anuo smashed the Qian family's door.
This is outrageous! How dare they, how dare they, so carelessly give away the money he cherished so much to a fool?
Anno took everything with him.
He completely ignored the shouts of the Qian family behind him.
He took all the silver with him.
Since Qian Duo is no longer part of their family, the money naturally can't be given to the Qian family. He needs to go to the Luo family to discuss buying Qian Duo back with the food or silver notes...
Unfortunately, in the end, all he saw was Qian Duo's withered corpse.
In this hot weather, the body would have already decomposed.
Upon seeing Qian Duo's corpse, Anuo went completely mad.
He—wiped out the entire Qian family, the entire Luo family, and the family his birth mother remarried into.
Afterwards, carrying Qian Duo's body, he fled into the deep mountains and was never heard from again.
"call--"
Ning Hong then opened her eyes again.
My chest still aches.
He really liked this younger brother in this world; he was loyal, devoted, and deeply in love.
Unfortunately, his life was too bitter.
Despite being the heir of a marquis's family, he ended up in this state. No wonder the original owner chose to protect this younger brother instead of his biological brother.
Ning Hong patted herself and walked out from the corner.
This body is only fourteen years old.
This was the first time he went to find his biological mother, the time his leg was broken.
We already know how it will end.
Knowing that the mother of this body was a scoundrel, he saw no reason to search for her.
Ning Hong thought for a moment, then stepped out from the corner and looked up at the sky.
It's too hot; let's go back as soon as possible.
No wonder these people couldn't survive the drought.
It's already this hot before there's even a severe drought.
His grandmother didn't actually have any major problems.
It's because my body is severely depleted.
In addition, the weather was too hot, which is why it got so bad.
After we get back, he'll give it a good treatment, and it'll definitely be able to recover.
"Brother—" Eleven-year-old Ning Anuo stumbled out.
He was running very fast, and his head was covered in sweat.
He only breathed a slight sigh of relief when he saw his brother.
Why are you running so fast?
"Brother, don't go looking for that woman, it's useless, she definitely won't help us," Ning Anuo said, panting.
"Okay, I won't go. I've thought about it and I think you're absolutely right."
Ning Hong patted Ning Anuo's head.
“Yeah, that woman is so heartless. If you go, she might actually hurt you,” Ning Anuo said, glaring at him.
Ning Anuo had said the same thing before, but the original owner of this body had a glimmer of hope for that woman. He felt that this woman was, after all, his biological mother, and they had lived together for three years.
There's always some affection involved.
However, facts speak louder than words, and Ning Anuo was right.
"Let's go back."
"I've figured out how to cure Grandma!"
"real?"
When have I ever lied to you?
"That's wonderful! Grandma will be so happy."
Ning Anuo cheered with joy; he was only eleven years old.
His face still had a touch of childishness, his family was still around, and he hadn't yet become the cold-faced person he would become in the future.
“Anno”.
"Um?"
"I hope you will be well throughout your life."
"With my brother and grandma here, of course I'll be fine."
"When you grow up a bit more, your brother will help you find a wife."
