Chapter 1: Crossing
Great Qi Dynasty, Liantang Village.
Qin Fangci traveled through time.
The last second she was making dinner for her son, and in the blink of an eye she became Qin Fang from Old Li's family.
Her son suffers from ALS, and she and her son depend on each other for survival. Life is very hard, but she has never thought of giving up.
But now, she has come to this damn place. Not to mention cooking, if she doesn't go back for a day, her Xiaojie will die of gas poisoning.
The noise in her ears and the strange memories in her mind were intertwined and tearing at each other. Qin Fangci frowned slightly in pain. Boss Li had a pair of sharp eyes, and Qin Fangci's tiny movement could not escape his notice.
"Don't make a noise first, mother seems to have woken up. Look, mother is really awake. It's okay. There's no need to call a doctor!" Boss Li was very happy. He saved some money again, and he could get a bigger share when the family property was divided.
The second son's wife curled her lips and said sarcastically, "Brother, the fifth son is still injured. If you don't ask the doctor, I will beat you to death first. The fifth son is the literary star of our family. He will become a high official in the future."
"Wenquxing didn't study hard. He skipped school and went to the mountains, where he got injured." The little girl Li Yulan looked unhappy. It was really worrying. If my younger brother couldn't do well in his studies, how could I marry a scholar?
The third child followed suit and complained, "Old Fifth, you're such a jerk. If you didn't want to go to school, you shouldn't have asked Mom to pay the tuition at the beginning of the school year. If she didn't study hard after paying the tuition, it would be better to lend the money to my mother-in-law for an emergency. Because the betrothal gifts weren't enough, my eldest brother-in-law's marriage fell through, and my wife is being blamed to death by her own mother."
"Third brother, don't be so naive. Are you borrowing money for an emergency? That's like throwing meat buns at a dog. It's gone and never comes back! That money was earned by my man through hard work. If you have to spend it, it should be spent on my man. The deal is already negotiated, only the capital is missing. Where can we go to seek justice?"
"Second sister-in-law, don't be so harsh," the third wife, Wang, echoed the man, "Sanlang said it was a loan."
"Bah! What the hell are you dreaming of!" The second son's wife, Yuan, spat fiercely, "Borrow? Everyone saves money to marry a wife. Borrow? How dare you say that? The money in the family is earned by my husband. Even if mother agrees, I won't agree! I'm not the one in charge of the family. We should separate from the family. It's better to earn money to send the eldest and second children to school than to just let the money go down the drain now. Our eldest and second children are no less intelligent than the fifth son. The fifth son is the incarnation of Wenquxing. We both have the surname Li. Whoever succeeds will bring honor to the family. Don't you think so, mother?"
Qin Fangci, who was praying devoutly in her heart to all the gods and Buddhas to send her back, had to open her eyes.
Qin Fang, please come back. I don’t want to take your body at all. Please come back soon and let me go back, okay?
The gods and Buddhas did not respond, and Qin Fang did not come back.
Bad luck! Terrible! Anxious!
"Mom, mom, please say something!" The second son's wife, Yuan, urged. Now that she had said this, she had made up her mind. If her mother-in-law was still partial and only cared about the life and death of her youngest son, then for the sake of the man, the child, and a good future, then their house had to be divided no matter what.
"What are you arguing about? You want money, money, money. Come and skin me alive and see how much money will come out of me. Divide the family, divide the family. If we divide the family, your man will have to do forced labor every year! Just wait and see if he still has the life to go out and earn money!" Qin Fangci was very angry. Those who delayed her from praying to God were bad people. It was so easy to divide the family in this era!
The second son's wife, Yuan, opened her mouth and wanted to say that her husband would pay someone to do the labor service in his place once he earned money, but she swallowed the words back. She hadn't received the money yet, so she couldn't say such a harsh words.
Seeing his wife lose her temper, Li Lao Er immediately followed behind and shouted, "It's okay if we don't divide the family, but you can't be so partial to me anymore! I am the apple of your eye, and we are also your apples!"
