Chapter One: Starting Over, Becoming Human Again!

oil you! Without you, our home wouldn't be so peaceful!"Jia Yin nestled in her grandmother's arms, babbling a few times, and finally glanced at Xiao Mei from the Sun family.Little one, see you again!W..."Mother, look! It's a girl! Our family finally has a daughter!"

Li Laosan's daughter-in-law was so surprised that she almost tore her vocal cords.

"Let me see, let me see!" Li Laotai, with her white hair, trembled her lips, almost shedding tears.

"Blessed are our ancestors, our old Li family has finally had a girl after so many boys!"

Outside the cave, Li's three brothers and several young boys were all leaning on their legs and looking out. Hearing this, they all cheered up.

"We have a little sister!"

"Milk, I want to see my sister, I want to see my sister!"

Li Lao Si, as a father, was even more excited, “Mother, how is Hong Ying Has the little girl gotten chubby”

Li Laotai directly bellowed, her voice full of power, "All of you shut your mouths and don't frighten my precious little girl!"

Li Jiayin was still in a daze, startled by the loud voice and trembling.

Last night I had a wonderful sleep, long and sweet. I felt warm all around, it was incredibly comfortable.

But before she could enjoy it for long, a sudden headache struck her, a searing pain that felt like being squeezed from a narrow space. It filled her with rage.

It doesn't hurt anymore, but I feel cold all over.

Someone smacked her buttocks hard, she cursed out of embarrassment, but what came out was a tiny, kitten-like whimper.

She was so startled that she hurriedly closed her mouth, almost suffocating herself.

Is this her voice

When did she become a baby

Wouldn't it be a fashion-forward reincarnation

Seeing her granddaughter was afraid, Old Lady Li quickly lowered her voice.

"Fourth Brother, come in quickly and warm this child close to your body. This child was born half a month early. According to the old ways passed down through generations, this is how you raise him to keep his soul tethered."

Soon, Li Jiayin was picked up and nestled in a warm embrace. The sound of a powerful heartbeat reverberated in her ear.

A large hand gently patted her back, soothingly.

"My dear girl, I'm your father. Don't be afraid, Daddy's holding you, we'll be alright."

Li Jiayin's eyes suddenly welled up, and tears streamed down her face.

Dad It seems like it's been years, perhaps even decades, since I last uttered this word.

After her parents divorced, they each started their own families. Her grandmother, who raised her, also passed away. She became like a ball, being kicked back and forth between them.

Although I'm financially secure and have all my basic needs met, I've never been cherished and loved this much before.

Although I don't know how I just slept through it, I somehow time-travelled in a fashionable way.

But being born with such a good father, shouldn't you be grateful

Li Jia's fourth son, Li Qiusheng, lowered his head. Seeing tears welling up in his little daughter's eye sockets, it felt as if someone had stabbed his heart.

He rolled on the ground in pain, trying his best to coax and comfort her.

"My little girl, don't cry, Daddy's here. Daddy is so amazing, strong and can shoot arrows! When you grow up, Daddy will go up the mountain to catch rabbits for you..."

On one side, Old Mrs. Li and San'er’s daughter-in-law Zhao Yuru helped the fourth daughter-in-law Tao Hongying tidy things up. Seeing this, Old Four was also smiling.

"The fourth child looks like a doting daughter, back when Jia'an was born, he wouldn't even hold her."

Tao Hongying's smile was weak, but when she touched her chest which wasn't swollen at all, she started to worry again.

This child was born at the wrong time!

Their whole family was fleeing, intending to seek refuge from distant relatives a thousand miles away. Just half a month into their journey, this girl gave birth.

Although Li Laotai was worried, she felt that having her precious granddaughter in her arms made any difficulty seem surmountable.

She kept assigning tasks, "The second and third sons set up another stove. The third son's wife takes out the rice from home and cooks porridge. Remember to add more water and cook it until there is rice oil. I want to feed my precious granddaughter in a bit!"

After that, she hesitated for a moment and then said again.

"Let Lao Si go up the mountain to have a look, it would be even better if he could catch some wild chicken! Jia Ren and Jia Yi are taking their younger brothers to find some wild vegetables nearby. Let's also have a vegetable porridge to celebrate!"

The Li family immediately sprang into action, their faces beaming with smiles.

The Li family was prosperous, with the second son giving birth to Jia Ren and Jia Yi, while the third son gave birth to Jia Huan and Jia Xi.

The first child of the fourth family is still a boy, Jia An, as if he had fallen into a den of boys.

This time Tao Hongying is pregnant again, everyone hopes that she's having a little girl in her belly.

My wish has finally come true, and soon our home will be filled with a soft and sweet little treasure.

Li Lao Si carefully carried his daughter out and placed her in his daughter-in-law's arms, then energetically went up the mountain.

Unfortunately, this region of the frontier has experienced two consecutive years of drought.

In the mountains, it was hard to find even a speck of green, let alone wild chickens or rabbits. He could only bring back a basket full of wild vegetables.

Soon, the family's lunch was ready.

Li Jiayin also tasted the rice wine, a bit viscous and slightly sweet.

I'm not actually that hungry, but I can manage to feed a little baby.

Men hesitated to step forward, but the boys had no such reservations.

Li Jiaren's five brothers finished their bowls of congee, slurping and watching as their little sister drank rice oil, occasionally shouting.

"Oh, mommy, the little sister can roll her tongue!"

"Milk, little sister why is your face red like a monkey's butt!"

"Mommy, when will little sister start talking"

Li Laotai listened curiously and amusedly, hurriedly waving her tobacco pouch to chase people away.

"Go, go, eat somewhere else and stop bothering your sister, she needs some quiet!"

The boys were reluctant to leave, unwilling to let their little sister suffer. They all went to the cave entrance.

After feeding her daughter, Tao Hongying drank two bowls of white porridge herself, then Li Laosi carried her daughter in her arms and put them on the tricycle.

The Li family's escape journey still has a long way to go, because it is already remarkable that giving birth delayed them for only a morning.

Behind us are bandits, rebels and barbarians, burning, killing and looting. Ahead lies a long and arduous journey. We must hurry if we want to survive.

Li Jiayin's head was dizzy from the jostling, and she could hear Li Laotai and Li Laosi calculating the amount of food they had at home.

Next time she encountered a town, she would definitely trade for a few eggs or something like that. She sighed inwardly too.

The new family seems nice, but they're really poor.

Starting off with fleeing our homes, I'm afraid things are going to be tough.

She was deeply concerned about her survival and yearned for her former rural courtyard from her past life.

Perhaps because she missed it too much, she fell asleep and dreamt of returning to the small farmhouse courtyard.

The chickens and ducks in the front yard seemed a little hungry, chirping non-stop in their coop. There were seven or eight eggs nestled in the henhouse.

Four little piglets in the pen were rooting around their trough, snorting constantly.

A nanny goat tethered to a tree in the corner of the courtyard was suckling her kid. The kid knelt on the ground, wagging its little tail, looking especially adorable.

Li Jiayin, impatient with the commotion, went to the vegetable garden behind and pulled up a few cabbages. She divided them among the chickens, ducks, and sheep, one cabbage per animal.

Finally, the courtyard was quiet, and Li Jiayin was stunned.

This dream feels so real!

But the former neighbors have vanished, the path in front of the yard has disappeared, and the distant hills are gone, replaced by a blanket of white fog.

It was as if everything else in the world had vanished, leaving only her small courtyard and the five mu of private land behind her house!

Could this be a cheat code given by the time-travel master

... or compensation for those who were born fleeing

Li JiaYin was so excited that her head spun, and then she woke up. She couldn't help but grin.

Tao Hongying looked down and smiled.

"Child's father, look quickly, our daughter is smiling!"

Li Lao Si was a man born with superhuman strength. His tricycle carried two bags of grain and his wife and children.

He didn't feel tired at all. He peeked his head in and grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.

"My daughter is so beautiful, she must be blessed!"

Tao Hongying affectionately hugged her daughter, but worry started to cloud her face. Just as she raised her eyes, she saw a white object by the roadside.

She recognized it, and was so startled that she stammered and pointed to Li Laosi.

"Goat... milk... Milky goat!"me pale and thin. Even elderly people can be seen leaning against the roadside, unable to get up once they sit down.The people of QingShui Village gritted their teeth and tried their best not to look...
