After being wrongly married, I stabbed my husband to death and became famous throughout the world.

The area around the border town is mostly mountainous, and she needs to know this place well enough to feel at ease staying there.

Upon entering the mountains, Li Shu did not rashly leave the safe zone. Instead, he searched for a water source nearby. The location of this small wooden house should also meet the basic survival requirements. So, as expected, after walking for about half an hour, Li Shu saw a mountain spring.

The water was in a depression surrounded by strange rocks. The water flowed out from the cracks in the rocks and looked quite clean. She carefully walked down the edges of the rocks, but instead of drinking it directly, she filled all the water-holding jars in the space.

Li Chutian was not nearby.

She took out the herbal medicine book she had bought, intending to observe the condition of the vegetation as she walked back.

Besides, it was getting late, and she needed to find a suitable place to stay for the night.

She destroyed Li Chutian's house, which will surely enrage him. When he sees her, he will surely hurl insults and resentment at her. She probably won't be able to get a good night's sleep then. So tonight, she doesn't need to go back at all; she just needs to take care of herself.

After groping around for a while, Li Shu dragged a few logs to an open space. The location was so-so, but there were two trees growing just right there.

She took out the hemp rope she had bought earlier from her space, tied it up, and then wrapped the quilt between the two ropes. It was long, thin, and narrow. She lay down inside and pressed down on the four corners of the quilt. Her body was almost completely covered, and the comfort level was acceptable.

I'm pressed for time today, so I can only make do for one night.

Before going to bed, Li Shu cleared a clean spot on the ground, piled up some firewood, and lit a fire.

At this point, Li Chutian finally found the wooden house, having been lost for quite some time.

He had never been to such a place before. At first, he knew the way, but he couldn't find a water source no matter how he walked around. He got a little anxious and forgot his direction. He wandered around and fell several times. Finally, he found a small stone pit and a spring. But he walked for a long time and was very tired. After filling the bucket, he groped his way back, which took up a lot of time.

By the time he found the cabin, almost all the water in the bucket had spilled out.

Upon seeing the damaged roof, he almost roared in anger, his savage voice sounding like he wanted to devour someone.

Zhou added fuel to the fire, making Li Chutian want to beat Li Shu to death on the spot!

However, after waiting for quite a while, no one came.

"Should we go look for her?" Zhou was naturally reluctant, but she still asked deliberately. "You got lost in this forest, so it goes without saying that she's just a little girl. She definitely won't be able to find her. But... maybe she deliberately hid herself, hoping that you, as her father, would get anxious and take the initiative to look for her..."

"What are you looking for? It would be better if you died out there!" Li Chutian said this sincerely.

Mrs. Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, very satisfied with her husband's attitude.

If her man had been so ruthless back then, Li Shu wouldn't have been so arrogant until now...

In the end, her husband shouldn't have married the Chen family girl. They were only married for a year, and he only gave birth to an illegitimate child. He didn't contribute anything and even annoyed her for more than ten years.

Late at night, Li Chutian was forced to repair the roof. Of course, being a first-timer, he didn't understand how to fix it.

……

The next morning, Li Shu prepared to choose a location to build a house. She had enough tools, and her injuries had recovered to about 70-80%. As long as she didn't overwork herself, there shouldn't be any major problems.

In her past life, she had watched some videos on wilderness survival. Although she hadn't studied them seriously, she had a general idea of ​​what they entailed.

Autumn days in the mountains are mostly sunny, so as long as you finish before the next rain, it's fine.

It failed several times in the middle.

This immediately ignited Li Shu's fighting spirit. After resting and recuperating for about ten days, she finally found a decent place to stay. Her efficiency wasn't very fast, but she wouldn't lose the skills she had learned. If she encountered the same situation again in the future, she could handle it in two days at most.

She figured that in ten days, the family of three should have adapted quite well.

When Li Shu arrived, he indeed saw quite a few piles of firewood.

The government officials would come to check on the place every now and then to prevent anyone from dying inside. They would come more often, especially when people first arrived at the mountain. So when Li Shu arrived, he found that there were already quite a few more things in the small wooden house.

Even pots and pans were prepared. People serving sentences in the mountains are not allowed to leave at will, so most of these things were probably brought over by government officials at a high price paid by the couple.

The other small vegetable patch has also been renovated, and I don't know what's planted in it.

Li Shu did not show up.

After ten days apart, the couple might have thought she was dead.

It's not even winter yet, so if something happens to this family of three, it would seem strange. So... let's wait and see.

She chose a place to stay that was quite far from the cabin. Given Li Chutian's character, he would probably choose to work nearby and wouldn't stray far from the cabin in the short term, so Li Shu wasn't worried about being discovered by him.

Of course, even if it is discovered, it's not a big problem.

Before leaving, Li Shu took a pile of firewood with him. It wasn't much, but it was enough for them to keep busy for a day.

The government had high requirements, demanding that prisoners deliver firewood every five days. The firewood had to be plentiful and neatly arranged, not just broken branches. As a result, Li Chutian and his wife not only had to cut down trees but also chop firewood. Over the past few days, their hands had developed blisters several times.

The authorities only gave them one month to adapt. If they failed to meet the requirements after one month, the food supply would be reduced, and they might even be punished with whipping. This immense pressure had made the whole family unhappy.

Li Chutian always felt that he didn't have enough firewood.

But it doesn't seem like much has changed.

He suspected that Aman might have used this firewood to keep warm last night...

At this moment, he looked at his daughter and no longer felt the same affection he had before.

Aman is only thirteen years old. She has been spoiled since she was a child and can't do any chores. Her husband and wife chop wood and only want this girl to be responsible for cooking and washing clothes, but all she can do is cry. She gets terrified when it comes to washing clothes, saying that the area near the mountain spring is eerie and she is scared.

Who isn't afraid? Even a grown man like him is afraid!

But what can we do?

Does he have to deal with the authorities and take care of the child at the same time? If so, what's the point of bringing Aman to the mountain? He might as well have stayed at home!

He initially thought Ah Li was unreliable, which is why he asked Ah Man to come along and keep an eye on things. He didn't expect Ah Li to disappear on the first day, so of course he could only rely on her for these matters!

Li Man felt even more resentful.

The stark contrast made her yearn for the old days.

Especially when she was scolded for not cooking a good meal for the first time, she couldn't help but think of Li Chuiguang, who was still in Ganhe Town.

Her parents used to love her very much because she was their "only" daughter. Before Li Shu went mad, her parents were always very patient and spoke to her softly. So she always felt that she was very important in the family.

Only now did she realize that she was kept by her side because she needed to make sacrifices, while Chuiguang did not!

The once lively and assertive little girl has also begun to become gloomy and silent.
