"She fell into the river right after Dad left. What should I do? She won't die just like that, will she?"
"It's better to die. Don't forget how she treated us."
"I'll try to see if she's still breathing. If she is, I'll get a doctor to check her out."
"Wuwuwu...Mother, please wake up quickly, don't scare Weiwei."
Several panicked childish voices came from far away and vaguely reached my ears.
Yun Xiangwan frowned. Who were they talking about?
Just then, she felt someone approaching and struggled to open her eyes.
"ah!"
The boy who stepped forward to smell Yun Xiangwan's breath never expected that Yun Xiangwan would suddenly open his eyes. He was so scared that he took two steps back and accidentally fell on his back.
“Plop!”
"Brother, how are you?"
"Brother, are you okay?"
Seeing this, the other two little boys rushed to him who had fallen and asked with concern.
Xiao Yanqing, the eldest son of the Xiao family, shook his head. He was used to working in the fields, so he was not hurt by the fall.
The little girl lying on the side of the bed cried even harder when she saw this.
“Big Brother…”
Xiao Yanqing hurried to comfort her.
"Weiwei, big brother is fine, but she..."
After saying that, he turned and looked at Yun Xiangwan who looked confused.
The latter came back to her senses and her eyes swept over the four children in the room one by one. The oldest was no more than ten years old, and the youngest was three or four years old. They were wearing coarse linen clothes, and their little faces were dirty. When they looked back at her, their eyes were filled with panic.
Looking around the room again, there are mud brick walls, carved windows, and furnishings that are simple but exude an ancient charm.
Isn't that right?
That's not right!
Where is this?
Yun Xiangwan sat up and pinched a handful.
Weird? Why doesn't it hurt?
"Mother, why are you pinching me?"
Xiao Yuwei asked tearfully.
"ah?"
Yun Xiangwan looked over with horror and saw that she was actually pinching the back of someone's hand, so she quickly withdrew her hand and apologized at the speed of light under three pairs of murderous gazes.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to do that."
The four children were all stunned. What? This woman actually apologized? Didn't she always talk about her status as the daughter of the city lord, looking down on them and bossing them around?
"It's okay, mother. I hope you can wake up."
Xiao Yuwei sniffed, tried hard to hold back her tears, then gave Yun Xiangwan a flattering smile.
"Wait, mother?"
Yun Xiangwan was stunned.
Wait, she remembered that after getting the diagnosis, she went straight home from the hospital.
The biopsy revealed pancreatic cancer.
She lay on the bed in despair, and then she didn't know whether she fell asleep or not, but the moment she opened her eyes, she found herself here.
These little ones call her mother?
She has been single since birth!
At this moment, a sudden sharp pain broke out in her mind, and then strange memories began to rush into her mind violently.
Yun Xiangwan was forced to accept this flood of memories, and her facial features wrinkled up in pain.
"Why is she making so much noise? What's wrong?"
"This woman doesn't seem right today."
"I'll go find a doctor now!"
"Mother, please hold on a little longer. I'll go find a doctor for you..."
Xiao Yuwei held Yun Xiangwan's hand, trying to give her some strength.
"Uh...wait, don't go."
Yun Xiangwan opened her eyes with difficulty and called out to Xiao Yanqing who was running out. "I'm fine, go get busy."
She wanted to be quiet.
Xiao Yanqing paused and thought, his family really didn't have any extra money to hire another doctor, so he called his second and third brothers.
"Then let's go chop wood and fetch water first, you take a good rest."
Yun Xiangwan didn't hear clearly what Xiao Yanqing said, and her head was still buzzing.
After a while, she slowly stretched out her right hand and raised her middle finger to the sky.
According to her comprehensive memory, she traveled through time and space into the fantasy novel that she had just finished reading a few days ago and became a vicious stepmother.
The original owner was the daughter of the Lord of Baiyu City. In this world where cultivating immortals is respected, she had a useless body of the five elements, was unable to gather energy, and had no chance of becoming an immortal.
However, due to the city lord's noble status as the daughter, others did not dare to say anything.
But on the day of her coming-of-age ceremony, the real daughter showed up.
Yes, it is so bloody. The original owner was a fake daughter.
The real daughter is not only beautiful and kind, but also a genius with single spiritual roots!
In comparison, the original owner was a loser.
"Dad, Mom, I also want to stay in the City Lord's Mansion. But my adoptive parents are still in the village. They are old and treat me very well. I can't abandon them."
When the city lord heard this, he was so shocked that he immediately sent the fake daughter, the original owner, back to the countryside in order to fulfill the filial piety of the real daughter.
But when the original owner returned to the countryside, she realized what it meant to treat people very well. Her father was a gambler, and her mother favored boys over girls. For fifty taels of silver, she was sold to a widower as a concubine!
The widower had a very bad reputation, he was a hunter, and he looked scary. Although he had some skills, it was not much.
The original owner had met him a few times and was always scared to death.
In order to get better care for his children, the widower voluntarily retreated and lived in the mountains and forests for a long time, only returning to the village when he hunted prey.
Just this morning, the widower went up the mountain, and the original owner took all the money in the family and ran away. As a result, he ran too fast, tripped over his left foot, and fell into the river.
In the novel, the original owner was also rescued, but she hated this place, not to mention taking care of the children. She just lay in bed every day, ordering the children to work, cook and serve her, and she would beat and scold them at any time.
Fortunately, she was afraid of the wild widower and did not dare to go too far. But a month passed, two months passed, the family was almost out of food, and there was no sign of him.
Gradually, rumors spread in the village that the widower had died in the mountains.
The original owner's attitude towards the children became increasingly bad. If they were not satisfied with the slightest thing, he would beat them to death. Later, when there was no food, he even sold Xiao Yuwei to a human trafficker and lied that she was taken away by a wild wolf in the mountains.
In order to find their sister, the three brothers of the Xiao family ventured into the mountains, but the third brother broke his leg.
The eldest and second brothers finally brought the man back, but the original owner refused to treat him, causing the third brother's leg to be disabled for life.
Later, the eldest brother learned from the villagers that Xiao Yuwei was betrayed by the original owner.
A deep blood feud was thus laid, and the original owner fled overnight after realizing something was wrong.
Little did they know that the three brothers of the Xiao family were extremely talented and within ten years, they had already made their mark in the world of immortal cultivation.
From then on, the game of cat and mouse began.
The original owner returned to the city lord's mansion that year, and in order to stay, she was willing to become the heroine's follower. Later, she was married to the illegitimate son of the Wang family by the city lord. The couple lived in harmony and gave birth to a son. Their life was considered happy.
But the three brothers of the Xiao family put pressure on the City Lord's Mansion and the Wang family, asking them to hand over the original owner.
The original owner knelt down and begged for mercy, but her son and husband were still killed by the three brothers of the Xiao family.
She herself became a beggar and was bullied all day long. After her miserable death, the three brothers of the Xiao family made her soul into wicks, which burned in fire every day, and she would never be able to be reborn.
Sure enough, it was not easy to take on the job of traveling through time. Fortunately, everything had not yet reached the worst turning point. At least she would never do something like selling children!
"Mother?"
Xiao Yuwei tugged at Yun Xiangwan's clothes again, and her shadow was reflected in her clear and bright black eyes.
What’s more, it’s such a cute little bun?
But the next second, Yun Xiangwan's smile froze on her face again.
Although the three brothers of the Xiao family are geniuses in cultivation, they are set as villains in that book!
Xiao Yanqing, who was a young emperor with a purple-star fate, became a cruel tyrant who could treat the people of a country as toys.
Xiao Yanling, who was born with a sword-like body, became a cold-blooded and ruthless evildoer who would draw his sword and kill people at the slightest disagreement.
Xiao Xuanling, the incarnation of Buddha, does not save himself or others. He loves to cut open people's heads and invent all kinds of strange ways to kill them.
The recovered Xiao Yuwei also became a bloodthirsty witch. In addition to torturing the original owner, she also tortured the captured male cultivators on a daily basis, sucking their cultivation and eating their flesh and blood.
Therefore, they naturally became stepping stones for the male and female protagonists to preach.
On the eve of the finale, the group was wiped out!
So, Yun Xiangwan now has to choose whether to raise the child or not?
If she doesn't raise the child, where can she go with this useless body that can't practice cultivation?
If you raise a child, wouldn't it be convenient for the hero and heroine to beat her when they fight the villain?

"The initial points are 0, the initial bond is 0, the benefits are not enabled, and the system mall is not enabled. Please increase your bond so that you can buy the items you need in the mall."
Just when Yun Xiangwan was feeling anxious and thinking about how to escape safely, a cold mechanical voice suddenly rang in his mind.
system?
Time travel benefits?
Is it possible that she, a non-African, finally gets lucky?
But how to increase the bond? With whom? It can't be with these four in front of me...

The mechanical sound rang again, and at the same time, an electronic screen appeared in front of Yun Xiangwan.
