The widow becomes a fairy, and the time-traveling girl counterattacks and becomes the queen

A light iron pot, three pounds of flour, a pound of salt, a fire stirrer, and a pot of water, all together weighed only a little more than seven or eight pounds. But even with such a small amount of things, Wang Xinyao still felt that they were very heavy after walking for a quarter of an hour. However, she did not dare to stop and continued to walk forward with difficulty.

However, as Wang Xinyao walked, the road seemed endless. Each step she took seemed laborious, her pace slowing down, and beads of sweat formed on her forehead. She couldn't help but sigh, "I'm so weak!"

She had thought she could easily bear the weight, but reality taught her a harsh lesson. She truly understood what it meant to "be difficult for a skilled hand to lift a few ounces." Even a few pounds of weight would become incredibly heavy if carried for a long time.

Finally, Wang Xinyao stopped, put down her belongings, and sat down on the ground, leaning against a tree, breathing heavily. She stared at the road ahead, secretly resolving that this body was too weak. She must work hard to improve her strength and endurance, and never let such trivial matters bother her again.

After a short rest, Wang Xinyao felt her strength had recovered somewhat. She took a deep breath, then pushed herself up and slowly stood up from the ground.

Just as she was about to take a step forward, a voice so subtle that it was almost imperceptible suddenly reached her ears: "Save me..."

Wang Xinyao couldn't help but frown. She stopped short, held her breath, and listened carefully to the sounds around her. However, aside from the rustling of leaves in the breeze, there were no other unusual sounds.

She shook her head gently, thinking that perhaps it was because she had been too tired during this period of time that she was hallucinating. Thinking of this, she no longer hesitated and continued to walk forward.

But at this moment, that weak and urgent voice sounded again: "Save me, save me..."

This time, Wang Xinyao heard it clearly, there was no mistake. It was a boy's cry for help filled with fear and helplessness.

Her heart suddenly tightened, and she stopped in her tracks. She began to look around nervously, trying to find the source of the sound. Finally, she found something swaying slightly in the grass not far behind the big tree.

Wang Xinyao walked over and saw a boy about 11 years old lying on the grass. His clothes, while not coarse, were tattered, clearly showing the hardships he'd endured. He was hunched over, his lips bruised and purple, his face a look of pain.

Wang Xinyao felt a surge of compassion. She hurried over to the boy and asked, "Little brother, what's wrong with you? What happened?"

The boy opened his eyes with difficulty and said weakly, "Sister, save me..." After that, he fainted.

Wang Xinyao quickly squatted down and carefully examined the boy's body. Finally, she found a wound on the boy's foot. The wound was oozing black blood, obviously a snake bite!

I really didn't expect that there would still be snakes around in late August. Maybe it's because the weather hasn't turned cool yet.

She acted decisively and took emergency measures. She found a sharp wooden stick and carefully cut open the wound, squeezing out the black blood. Then, she quickly walked to the barren hills by the roadside and found some snake medicine. After crushing it, she gently applied the medicine to the wound.

After finishing all this, the sun had quietly set, but the little boy was still sleeping soundly.

The street was deserted, and Wang Xinyao, eager to return home, took a few steps forward, only to turn back. She couldn't bear to leave the little boy alone on the side of the road. What if another wolf appeared, or he was bitten by a snake again? Wouldn't all her efforts have been wasted?

Wang Xinyao stood there, hesitating, and finally decided to take the little boy home first and make plans after he woke up.

She bent down, gently carried the boy on her back, and walked slowly towards home with heavy steps.

She was already exhausted, and now with all the luggage hanging around her neck and a young man on her back, Wang Xinyao felt as if all her strength had been drained away, but she still gritted her teeth and struggled forward step by step.

After many stops and starts, it took her three times longer than usual to finally reach her home. By the time she reached the gate, the sky had already darkened like a black curtain, pressing down heavily. She was so tired that she almost collapsed to the ground, but she knew she had a child on her back, so she held on!

The moment I stepped into the yard, I saw three little girls sitting quietly beside the thatched hut like three well-behaved kittens, their little heads looking around like rattles.

Xie Erhua blinked her big watery eyes and asked in a baby voice, "Sister, why hasn't my mother come back yet?"

"Sister, when will I come back?" Xie Xiaohua also cried and sobbed like a wounded little lamb.

"It's almost there, it's almost there, I'll be back soon. Don't worry, I'll be back soon!" Xie Dahua kept comforting her sisters.

When they saw that it was Wang Xinyao who came back, the three sisters ran over together, shouting loudly: "Little girl, little girl is back!"

Wang Xinyao was nearly knocked over by the embraces and quickly steadied herself. Xie Dahua was quite clever and immediately took the luggage from Wang Xinyao. Only then did they realize, to their surprise, that there was an extra person on Xiaoniang's back!

"Girl, who is this brother?" the three girls asked in unison.

"This is my brother who got lost many years ago! He was bitten by a snake!" Wang Xinyao thought for a moment, and to avoid any future trouble, she decided to answer this way. After all, in ancient times, the relationship between men and women was not as casual as it is today!

The little boy still hadn't woken up, sleeping soundly and peacefully on Wang Xinyao's back. His lips were no longer as purple, suggesting the toxins had been expelled and he was no longer in danger. He hadn't woken up yet, probably because he was too tired!

Wang Xinyao couldn't bear to wake him up, so she put the boy on the children's bed and shared the buns with the three children. Then she asked about Xiaohua's condition. Xie Dahua said, "I gave her two doses of herbal medicine during the day and made her drink a lot of boiled water. She didn't have a fever all day!"

Xie Xiaohua took Wang Xinyao's hand and said coquettishly, "My dear, I'm not sick anymore. My head doesn't hurt anymore!"

"Mom, in addition to eating chestnuts today, we also ate the buns that Uncle Xiaogang brought us! The buns are delicious, just as delicious as the ones mom brought us now. Thank you, mom!" Xie Erhua also wanted to show off!

Wang Xinyao smiled and touched the heads of the three children, saying gently, "I will often make delicious food for you in the future."

At this moment, Wang Xinyao noticed that the boy's wound needed a dressing change. She gently unwrapped the bandage and carefully cleaned the blood and pus around the wound. When she bandaged the boy again, she found that his wound had begun to heal, which made her feel very relieved.

When changing his dressing, the corners of the boy's mouth slightly raised. He must have been having a sweet dream!

Wang Xinyao couldn't help laughing when she saw his cute appearance. She felt that it was worth it no matter how tired she was. After all, saving a life was better than building a seven-story pagoda.

After putting the children to bed, Wang Xinyao's eyelids felt heavy as if they were filled with lead, making it difficult to open them. She was truly exhausted today, as if all her strength had been drained away. However, the bed was already occupied by three girls, so there was no room for them. In desperation, she had to make a mat on the floor, with some straw underneath and a piece of cloth on top.

She secretly vowed to herself that she would take good care of her body and buy a bed when she had enough money. However, as soon as she lay down, she fell asleep instantly!
