"Okay then. I invited you here because I heard about your abilities. I'll call the new recruits out and ask Liu Feng to go into the room."

After saying that, Wang Jianjun took me into the house and came to the door of Hongying's family of three.

Wang Jianjun knocked on the door and it was Wang Xinbing who opened it.

"Is Hongying asleep?" Wang Jianjun asked.

"Not yet, what are you going to do?" asked Wang Xinbing.

"It's like this, Liu Feng wants to see Hongying alone, you two come with me to the backyard and sit for a while."

Wang Jianjun explained his purpose.

"Okay!" Wang Xinbing agreed, turned around and called his wife, and the two came out of the room one after another.

"Hongying, come and play with your sister. Dad, Mom, Grandpa, and Grandma, please go to the yard and talk."

When Hongying's mother walked out of the room, she gave another worried instruction, fearing that the child would cry.

But the little blush sitting on the bed seemed surprisingly calm and nodded.

After they left, I went into the room and sat down beside Xiao Hongying's bed. She was holding a hand-sewn puppy in her arms.

"Sister, I know you!"

Before I could say anything, she spoke first, and her tone was quite affirmative.

I was stunned for a moment, pointed at myself and asked curiously.

"You, you know me?"

"Yes, I know you. I met you three years ago."

She affirmed once again, her tone totally unlike that of a three year old.

"Three years ago, you weren't even born three years ago, how could you know me?" I was shocked again.

"I recognized you as soon as you walked in, but with so many people around, I couldn't greet you. Grandpa, grandma, dad, and mom didn't believe me."

"Three years ago, I followed the coal-selling grandfather's cart to your doorstep. You and Mrs. Xu bought coal. I saw you looking in my direction and knew you could see me," she continued.

"You, are you the big yellow dog?"

I cried out in surprise, remembering that three years ago, I did see the ghost of a big yellow dog covered in blood following the coal-selling old man's cart. I suddenly understood, but then embarrassedly changed my words.

"That big yellow dog is your past life?"

She nodded, and then she told me about her experience of two reincarnations.

Her memory of her previous life began after her third birthday, when she and her grandfather saw the big yellow dog and its children.

In her first memory, her name was Li Xueyan. She was from Lijia Village, Wuhe Town. Her father was Li Dagui and her mother was Li Yufen. Before she was three years old, she had a happy family.

Although the family had a few acres of thin land, my parents were diligent and my father also used his slack time in farming to do some work on construction sites to supplement the family income.

There are no elderly people in the family. After my father and mother got married, my grandparents passed away one after another.

Although there were no elderly people to help take care of her, the couple always took her with them when they worked in the fields and always took good care of her.

But the good times didn’t last long. When I was three years old, my mother fainted while working in the fields one day. After going to the hospital for a check-up, she was told that she had an incurable disease. She passed away half a year later, leaving behind an orphan and a widow.

At first, it was very hard for her father to take care of her alone, playing the role of both father and mother for more than a year. Later, through an introduction, he married Liu Huiqin, an older woman from the neighboring village, and she became her stepmother.

But Liu Huiqin is not as virtuous as her name suggests. She is a mean and sarcastic woman at heart.

She always says one thing to your face and another behind your back. When her father Li Dagui is at home, she acts like a loving mother, calling her daughter "girl" and "dearest".

After Li Dagui went out to work on the construction site, she ignored Li Xueyan and asked her to sweep the floor and do housework at a young age. She often did not cook for her. When her father came home, Liu Huiqin's attitude immediately changed.

She had mentioned this to her father before, but based on Liu Huiqin's performance in front of her father, Liu Dagui didn't believe it at all. He even taught her to treat Liu Huiqin as her own mother and not to harbor any hostility.

After that, she never dared to mention it in front of her father again and could only endure it silently.

Two years later, Li Dagui and Liu Huiqin's first child was born. Liu Huiqin gave birth to a son, and Li Dagui was very happy.

Li Xueyan's nightmare began since her younger brother was born. After her younger brother was one month old, there was a new member in the family and her father went to work on a construction site to make a living.

After her father left, Liu Huiqin became even more displeased with Li Xueyan because she had her own child. Before, she just refused to give her food, but now, in addition to making the 6-year-old Xueyan do housework, she also beats and scolds her.

It was snowing outside in winter, and Li Xueyan was asked to carry her brother's diapers to the small pond to wash them.

Poor Xueyan, she was crying while using a wooden stick to break the ice.

It was winter, the wind was howling and the cold was biting. She gritted her teeth and slowly put her hand into the icy water. The biting cold instantly penetrated her skin and reached her bone marrow.

She couldn't help but tremble, but she had to continue with what she was doing.

The cold water made her fingers numb and almost numb.

She scrubbed the clothes vigorously, and every rub was like a tough fight against the cold.

Her little face was blown red by the wind and her lips were a little purple. Snowflakes fluttered down and landed on her head and body, but she didn't care at all.

Because she had to wash all the diapers, otherwise her stepmother would not only not give her food, but also beat her.

At this time, only the big yellow dog who grew up with her was standing close to her, facing the snowflakes. It didn't know how to comfort the little master in front of it, but just let her snuggle up to it and block the cold wind for her.

This big yellow dog was adopted from a family in the village when her mother was still alive. After her mother passed away, the two of them depended on each other, and Xueyan would always share her limited food with the dog.

If it weren't for Dahuang's company over the years, she wouldn't know how she would have survived these miserable days.

When she came to Li Huiqin, dragging her almost frozen body and carrying the washed diapers.

"You damn girl, you don't even wash your diapers properly. This one isn't clean yet, go wash it again or you won't have any food tonight."

Along with Liu Huiqin's roar, she also received a loud slap in the face.

Xueyan, with tears on her face, had to go to the small pond again. However, no matter how much detergent she used, even an adult could not wash away the yellow stains on the baby's diaper, let alone a child of over 6 years old.

As you can imagine, Xueyan went to bed with an empty stomach that night.

Fortunately, Liu Huiqin stopped beating her half a month before Li Dagui came back, for fear that Li Dagui would see the injuries on her body. Moreover, when Li Dagui was at home, Liu Huiqin's attitude towards her was completely different.

Even so, Li Xueyan grew up healthy, and two years later, Liu Huiqin gave birth to another daughter.

With the addition of a new family, father Li Dagui had to spend more time away from home to work, but Xueyan still went to school like other children.

She could still tolerate just going home from school and working until late at night. At least she didn't have to face this vicious woman from morning to night.

But the good times did not last long. When Li Xueyan was 12 years old, bad news came: her father was working on a construction site and was hit by a brick falling from above. After intensive treatment, her father's life was saved, but he became a vegetable.
