"My mother left when I was ten years old. It was my father who raised us brothers and sisters."

"My father died of illness three years ago. On the night of the ceremony at the ancestral hall, one of my cousins ​​lost the filial piety hat on her head."

"I'll go back and help her find it along the way."

Bao Suyun knelt on the ground, recalling what happened that night.

I don't know if the woman's shoulders are frozen or because the memories make her scared.

I couldn't help but tremble.

The sad and weak voice continued.

"Later I found her lost filial hat, but it was on the way back to the ancestral hall."

"A figure ran out of the alley, covered my mouth and nose, and dragged me into the alley."

"ah"

Yang Huazhou frowned and clenched his fists with his fingers.

He thought Bao Suyun didn't know how to behave

It turns out that he was killed on that night

Bao Suyun sobbed and continued.

"I don't recognize that person. His face is covered, but his eyes are exposed."

"I struggled desperately, but he was so strong and he even had a knife on him."

"I wanted to call someone, but he blocked my mouth with something."

"I'm so scared, really scared"

When Bao Suyun said this, she hugged her shoulders and burst into tears again.

Hearing this, Yang Huazhou's anger was still there.

However, the heartache kept coming.

He took her cotton-padded clothes from the bed and threw them to her, letting her cover her shameful area.

Bao Suyun glanced at him gratefully.

The woman continued.

"That night was my nightmare."

"After my father's funeral, I fell ill. I was ill for a month."

"My brother and sister-in-law thought I was going to die. They couldn't afford a coffin, so the straw mat for wrapping my body was ready."

"But a month later, I came back to life with a baby in my belly."

"That baby is Dabao" Yang Huazhou asked.

Bao Suyun nodded.

"If word spreads about a woman getting pregnant out of wedlock, I will be shameless as a human being."

"I wanted to beat the child, but my brother and sister-in-law stopped me."

"My sister-in-law has been here for several years, but she has never been happy."

"After checking, the problem is not with my sister-in-law, but with my brother."

"They wanted to have a child so crazy that they wanted me to secretly give birth to the child and raise it for them."

"I don't care whether I live or die."

"When my father was still alive, he arranged a marriage for me."

"My brother and sister-in-law went to that person's house without telling me, saying that I had sworn to keep my father's filial piety for three years."

"The other side couldn't wait any longer, so they canceled the marriage."

"My sister-in-law took me with her to her parents' home. During those ten months, they kept me hidden in the woodshed in the backyard of her parents' home."

"They didn't let me go anywhere and brought me water and food every day."

"Only when it's late at night, are you allowed to come outside to the yard to bask in the moonlight?"

The more Yang Huazhou listened, the more he frowned.

Most of the anger I had been holding back had now disappeared.

Looking at the woman in front of him, his heart clenched.

Is this kind of experience still suffered by humans?

"Ten months later, I gave birth to Dabao successfully."

"During this period, my sister-in-law also spread rumors that she was pregnant."

"Dabao was born in the middle of the night. After giving birth, I followed my sister-in-law back to Baojia Village overnight."

"During the day, my sister-in-law sits on the bed and spends her confinement period, while I do laundry, cook, and secretly breastfeed Dabao."

"That's it, pulling Dabao along till now."

"I watched him grow up. He would sleep with me at night, but he never knew that I was his mother."

"Originally, I didn't plan to get married again. As long as my brother and sister-in-law don't dislike it, I will help them live my whole life."

"But, half a year ago, something happened to my family. I filed a lawsuit and lost money."

"We owe foreign debts, and our house is in disrepair."

"Brother and sister-in-law want to pay off their debts and renovate the house. But they can't find a way to get the money."

"That's when the idea came to me."

"What do they want to do to you?" Yang Huazhou asked nervously.

Go to the selling kiln

Or give it to someone to be a concubine?

Bao Suyun seemed to be able to read Yang Huazhou's guess, and a wry smile appeared on her face.

"There's nothing we can't think of, and there's nothing they can't do," she said.

"My sister-in-law even hired a gangster to sell me to the other side of the mountain."

"I overheard their conversation. The three brothers are all old bachelors. They only have three taels of silver to buy a wife and give birth to a baby."

"I was so scared that I begged them not to sell me so far."

"I am willing to marry, and I want to marry somewhere close to me. In this way, I can also go back to my parents' home to see my eldest child."

"What happened next was that my sister-in-law found Matchmaker Zhou and asked her to help me keep an eye on people in the area."

"Widowers, old men, fools, cripples, as long as they are men and can afford a bride price of three taels of silver, they can take me there."

"Later, I met you"

"You are a good young man, with good looks, good body, and good conduct."

"It's more than a hundred times better than the homes my sister-in-law is looking for."

"I am tempted and want to marry you."

"I know if I tell you the truth, you will definitely not marry me."

"I was selfish and lied to you. I planned to make rice with you and get away with it."

"I didn't expect that God is watching what I do. You finally saw through my little trick."

"I feel ashamed"

"Lao Wu, you are a good man, but I, Bao Suyun, am not worthy of you."

"If you want to beat or scold me, I won't say a word. If you want to divorce me, I won't blame you."

"I have delayed your efforts and ruined your reputation. I will never be able to make it up to you in this life."

"I just want to be a cow and a horse in my next life to repay you."

After Bao Suyun finished speaking, he laid his body on the ground and kowtowed to Yang Huazhou to apologize.

The woman's tears fell on the ground in front of her.

A large area was wet.

A man's heart can no longer be strong.

A pair of strong arms suddenly stretched out and carried the woman, who was so cold that she had no warmth at all, onto the bed.

He pulled the quilt and wrapped his two frozen bodies together.

The bodies under the quilt fit together tightly without any hindrance.

"Suyun, stop talking, don't say anything."
