It was the Eighth Year of the Great Xing Dynasty.
“Have y’all seen that silly girl from the Qi family and her three babies? I haven’t seen ’em in a while.”
“Don’t you know?”
“Know what?”
“I heard that Old Man Qi got fed up with his stupid daughter and her three burdens. She ain’t gonna get married again anyway, so he secretly threw away the girl and her kids.”
“Hah?”
“It sounds cruel, yeah, but think about it! That’s four mouths to feed! He can barely feed himself, much less four other freeloaders.”
“True…”
“I’m impressed Old Man Qi fed the four of them for three whole years before he gave up!”
Everyone in Linquan Village knew that Old Man Qi had a daughter as beautiful as a flower. Unfortunately, she fell seriously ill as a child and it affected her mind. She became a foolish half-wit.
Four years ago, the family went to Qingzhou village to visit their aunt, and not long after they came back, the girl turned out to be pregnant. Old Man Qi was ashamed and tried to give her medicine to abort the baby, but she would not take it!
Well, there was nothing else for him to do then. Their family figured that she was not getting married anyway, so she might as well have the kid. What she did not expect was for her to have three kids. The triplets left the entire village stunned.
Usually, even twins were a rare sight. In comparison, the girl turned out to be pretty fertile despite her low wits. She had three children at once!
Although she was relatively good-looking, there was no denying that she was half insane. Even if her family wanted to sell her, who would buy a madwoman? A madwoman who had three children, no less!
In a way, it was good that they threw her away. It was the middle of winter, so they would freeze to death even if they did not starve!
One mile away from the village entrance…
A woman wearing a rough cotton shirt that was faded from all the washing walked through the thick fog with three toddlers in thin, short-sleeved clothes in tow. They approached the village slowly.
One of the children tugged at the woman’s hand and said softly,
“Mommy~~~”
After a pause, the child asked clumsily, “Are we really going back to the village?”
The woman patted his head with a smile. “Our hut is in the village. If we don’t go back, we’ll keep sleeping in the abandoned temple. Do you guys want to sleep in that rundown place?”
“I prefer our hut,” Xiaobao said, pouting.
“But… Grandfather doesn’t like us…” Another child muttered.
The woman said calmly, “Don’t worry, children, you have me. No one will give you a hard time ever again.”
The three children looked up at their mother in confusion and admiration.
Their Mommy was really different from before. She looked the same, but her personality…
So cool!
So reliable!
Qi Qingyao did not know that her three children’s respect for her was increasing by the second.
She had just transmigrated here three days ago, and she had tried her best to accept the fact that the original host of this body was mentally challenged. She accepted the fact that she was now an unmarried mother of three, and even the fact that she had been kicked out of her maiden home!
When other people transmigrated, they would somehow end up as the oldest daughter of an esteemed noble in the capital city, or the emperor’s daughter, or at least the beloved jewel of a tight-knit family.
Yet, look where she had landed!
Her grandparents hated her, her parents abandoned her, and she took the stage with three burdens weighing her down! She did not even know who the children’s father was…
What a terrible opening hand.
Qi Qingyao looked at the village, fuzzy in the fog, and sighed.
