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

A glimmer of hope rose in Li Man's heart. She vowed to herself that as long as her parents loved her as before, she would never listen to Ali's orders for the sake of food!

However, Zhou looked at her with some impatience.

“You’re already here, do you still want to go back? Our family doesn’t have that much money to support two idle people! Your father’s job at the post station has been taken over by the Yao family, so we’ll lose a lot of income. The family’s land is only enough for food and drink, so we can’t let you live the life you used to have where everything was done for you! You can still help out here. Your parents raised you for so long, it’s time for you to repay them. Do you want to be an ingrate like that brat Ali?!” Zhou was extremely disappointed.

After Zhou finished speaking, she nudged Li Man, urging her to hurry up and cook.

Li Man felt ice-cold all over; her last glimmer of hope was shattered.

At this moment, Li Shu didn't care about those small losses. It was still worth it to exchange these minor losses for the unrest of the Li family.

She knew that Zhou loved Li Man, but love also has levels. If the love given to Li Chuiguang was eight parts, then the love given to Li Man was only half. In the past, Li Man could not feel the difference between herself and her younger brother, not because Zhou hid it well, but because this family had a common enemy.

They all sidelined the original owner, forming a united front, and were quite cohesive.

The original owner did so much; she could solve most of the fatigue and troubles caused by housework for the Zhou family, bring pride and confidence to the children, and make the family distinct yet coexist peacefully.

But now, she's no longer willing to be the sucker.

Zhou's life suddenly plummeted, and she must have harbored resentment in her heart. How could she possibly have the mind to deal with her daughter's coquettishness and pleas?

Even if she was initially soft-hearted and indulgent, how long could her maternal heart remain after being tormented by hardship every day?

Li Shu didn't go after the couple to fight them; he simply waited quietly.

Life in the mountains was not difficult for her to adapt to. The quiet and harmonious feeling even made her think about living in seclusion in the mountains and becoming a wild person.

Li Shu has always been well aware that someone like her is not suited to living among people because she is combative, not broad-minded, and easily holds grudges for the slightest grievance. She cannot eat or sleep if she does not vent her anger. Such an unstable temperament is a cancer.

In her past life, things were alright; the constraints of rules and regulations allowed her to disguise herself very well.

She has too many enemies in this life, and she feels her blood boiling every day.

For example, right now, the first rain since entering the mountain has arrived. The rain is not heavy, but it makes it difficult for her to move. She can no longer search for wild fruits or strange root herbs, for fear of accidentally falling to her death. So she can only sit in the wooden house and cook for herself.

When her mind is blank, she can't help but think of the Ma family.

The Ma family is different from the Li family. In her current state, let alone taking revenge, she can't even have a few words of argument with Captain Ma.

Lieutenant Ma tolerated her because of moral issues, but that doesn't mean he's a pushover.

She learned from chatting with the Chen siblings that soldiers in the army were also clearly divided into ranks.

There are several important border cities within Yunjing Pass, each with a certain number of troops stationed there. This is mainly to prevent chaos in the rear cities when the battle at the front is intense, and also to provide support. The front-line military camp has about 50,000 troops, divided into several large camps in addition to the commander-in-chief, the supervising officer, and the various military advisors.

Each camp has its own commander and deputy commander.

Each battalion has infantry, cavalry, chariot soldiers, logistics soldiers, etc., each of which is managed by a general, and each type of soldier is further divided into teams.

Lieutenant Ma was in charge of a battalion of archers. He used to be a captain, and he was promoted to the rank of captain in the last two years because of his merits. That's why the Ma family lives in Ganhe Town.

It seems that if the border wars ever cease and the time comes to reward those who have rendered meritorious service, this Captain Ma will be able to go to the capital and establish a family.

So it's no wonder that the old lady of the Ma family is so proud; beneath her kind face lies the charity of those in power.

Given the Ma family's situation, she only had two choices.

She could either try to climb up the social ladder and stand above Captain Ma to kill Ma Chengting and his wife openly, or she could secretly plot to make them leave without a trace. However, Captain Ma was smarter than Li Chutian, and if something happened to Ma Chengting, she would be highly likely to be discovered.

Ma Chengting is the other party's only son, and when that happens, she will have to face the pursuit of Captain Ma.

She's a wanted criminal; she's on the list, so she's worth a lot of money.

It was precisely because this predicament was so clear that the original owner felt despair.

For the original owner of this body at the time, let alone the Ma family's mountain, even small hills like the Qi family and the Li family's would have been enough to crush her to death.

Li Shu stuffed the cooked porridge into his spatial storage, leaving only a little for dinner.

Thinking about that grandson of Ma Chengting made her angrier and angrier, and her heart was burning with rage.

Don’t rush…

She's only been here for two or three months, and she's already killed two people.

She can wait patiently; if one year doesn't work, then three years; if three years doesn't work... then she'll take drastic measures!

What nonsense about fortunes changing every thirty years? By the time you've lived thirty years, your enemies will be surrounded by children and grandchildren!

As Li Shu was thinking, some sounds came from outside.

She thought it was Li Man again, so she lifted the straw curtain she had made and took a look.

It turned out to be a young man I'd never seen before.

The other person was dressed in fine cloth, carrying a bamboo basket on his back and a medicine hoe in his hand. His body was wet from the rain. When he met Li Shu's eyes, he was obviously stunned for a moment and looked around with a puzzled expression.

"Isn't this... the dwelling of the woodcutters?" Cheng Mian was puzzled. He knew that the woodcutters were all guilty of some crime and were punished by being sent here, but looking at the little girl in front of him...

He's very thin, only sixteen or seventeen years old, doesn't seem like it.

Li Shu glanced at him up and down, his gaze landing on the badge at his waist. He had a guess in his mind and asked directly, "Are you a military doctor?"

“Yes… I am,” Cheng Mian quickly replied. “I need to use your room.”

Li Shu chuckled. This guy is certainly not polite.

However, she also knew that the original wooden houses in this forest were all built by the government, and could be used freely by government officials or soldiers, so she was not surprised.

At that moment, she simply turned slightly to let the other person in.

Cheng Mian breathed a sigh of relief and immediately crawled inside.

But as soon as he entered the wooden house, he was somewhat surprised.

The little house wasn't big, but it was quite well-equipped, even with thick rice porridge and cooked wild vegetables that smelled delicious. These were clearly not coarse grains provided by the government, but rather the little girl's own.

Li Shu glanced at his basket.

His eyes lit up immediately.

She saw ginseng? So it's not that it doesn't exist in these mountains, but rather that she's just unlucky and can't find it!?
