Grandma Liu's back trembled slightly as she walked home.
It's all my fault for having such a useless daughter-in-law. If she had told me that the child had such a birthmark, I would never have let my son abandon the child.
When the old lady got home, she started berating her youngest son.
"Look at the awful woman you married! I think she's a real jinx. She couldn't give birth to a son, and now that she's finally given birth to a useful one, you've thrown her away!"
Liu Wentao was helpless as his mother pointed her finger at him and berated him.
"Mother, maybe I should just divorce her."
Upon hearing this, Old Mrs. Liu became even more agitated. "Divorce her? That would be too good for her. Our family has had the worst luck in eight generations since we married her. If she can't bring that child back to me, I'll beat her to death."
Cai Feng overheard their conversation from the doorway and knew that if she couldn't get the little Su baby back, her situation would be even more difficult.
Cai Feng thought for a moment and came into the house with trembling hands. When Old Mrs. Liu saw her, she picked up a bamboo stick and wanted to hit the unlucky thing.
Just then, Caifeng spoke up, "Mother, I have an idea, do you think it will work?"
Upon hearing this, Old Mrs. Liu put the bamboo stick aside and pulled Cai Feng to sit down.
"Mother, since this is our child, why don't we just take him/her?"
Upon hearing this idea, Old Mrs. Liu flew into a rage. Didn't she think of this? To snatch it, she'd have to be able to fight first!
Seeing her mother-in-law's expression, Cai Feng quickly continued, "I heard that the child is currently studying at school with his older brothers. Why don't we just go over after school and snatch him away?"
Liu Wentao thought about it for a moment and realized that it could actually work.
The family calculated the time and realized that it would be around the time their children finished school. With that in mind, they quickly packed up and left home.
The school system in this dynasty is different from that of the previous life. In the previous life, you could only go to kindergarten when you were three or five years old. But here it is different. As long as you can walk, jump and talk, you can start learning.
Their motto is that children should start learning from a young age; I've heard that some children in the palace start learning before they're even a year old.
When Su Muyao first arrived, the teacher also disagreed, after all, how could a toddler who was only a little over one year old go to school?
However, at Su Muyao's insistence, the old teacher accepted this youngest student.
The Su family felt that Su Muyao was still young, and they told the teacher that they would treat her as a child on a trip.
The teacher thought that since the farming family was wealthy and the child was young, he figured that whatever little bit the child could learn would be helpful, so he agreed.
After school, a large group of students rushed home.
Su Muyao was having a disagreement with her older brother at this time.
"I don't want you to carry me. You can't carry me, I'm too heavy. I want to walk myself."
How could she, a dignified adult, let a little kid carry her?
Xi Bao disagreed and insisted on carrying her younger sister on her back, while Huan Bao cheered her on from the side.
"The older brother carries his younger sister on his back, and the younger sister gets tired from walking."
The twins from the second son's family, Su Chen and Su Yu, hadn't come out yet, but Su Mingxuan had already walked out.
Upon seeing that it was her five-year-old older brother, Su Muyao quickly waved and said, "Over here, over here."
Once all the brothers had gathered, they ran home like wild horses.
Su Muyao shouted, "Slow down, don't run too far, everyone slow down."
The children were still running forward desperately when Su Mingxuan, who was in front, suddenly cried out and fell to the ground.
Xi Bao quickly ran forward to check if Su Mingxuan had fallen anywhere.
Looking at her irresponsible brothers, Su Muyao decided to teach them a lesson and hid behind a tree.
"Hehe, I let you run so fast, don't worry about the little sister behind you scaring you to death."
"Good boy/girl"
An old woman's voice rang out from behind her, startling Su Muyao.
After seeing who it was, she rolled her eyes dramatically.
"You're not planning to trick me into leaving this place like a child predator, are you?"
Upon hearing this, Grandma Liu's expression froze, and she quickly waved her hand, saying, "What are you talking about? I am your grandmother, but the family you live with now is not your relative. Come home with me."
After saying that, the old lady of the Liu family tried to grab Su Muyao's arm.
Su Muyao wasn't one to be trifled with either, and she gave the old lady's stomach a hard push.
The old lady cried out "Ouch!" and fell to the ground.
Seeing how useless his mother was, Liu Wentao rolled up his sleeves and was about to grab Su Muyao.
But Cai Feng grabbed him. Liu Wentao was confused, so he was about to kick Cai Feng when he heard her say, "Husband, please don't scare our child. This is a little lucky star."
After saying this, Cai Feng walked closer to Su Muyao and said, "My dear, I am your mother, this is your grandmother, and this is your father..."
Su Muyao quietly watched as the woman in front of her began to recount her hardships.
Her father was passing by that mountain when he saw wild animals, so he lured them away. But when he returned, she, who had been hidden, was gone.
They openly and secretly say that his current parents stole him away and now refuse to return him.
The woman's words were so touching that if I didn't have my memories, and if this were an ordinary child, I might have actually believed their nonsense.
Seeing that the little baby in front of her was very calm, the woman waved her hand and hugged the baby after she finished speaking.
Before their hands could even reach Mu Muyao, the little girl in front of them suddenly shouted, "Help! Help! There are kidnappers trying to snatch my child!"
The children who came back to look for Su Muyao immediately came running when they heard their younger sister calling.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the same family that had tried to kidnap his sister from his home last time. He never expected them to come here and try to kidnap her again.
When Su Mingxuan heard his younger sister talking about "flower picking," he remembered how his mother had told him how terrible flower picking was.
After being lured away by flower sellers, they would have their hands and feet chopped off, be poisoned and rendered mute, and then be thrown out onto the streets to beg.
The thought of her soft and sweet little sister being treated like this made her burst into tears.
"Don't kidnap my sister, don't cut off her hands and feet, waaaaaah!"
The child's cries quickly attracted people nearby.
