Chapter 774: Chapter 774: Live-in Son-in-Law 36

In the blink of an eye, two more years had passed.

According to the previous life’s storyline, this was the day when the protagonist’s mother, Ma Cuiying, abandoned her daughter.

Ma Cuiying sneaked out at around four or five in the morning, taking advantage of the empty streets, and left her daughter at the orphanage door before rushing to catch a train back to her hometown.

In this life, following 007’s directions, Yuan Chun arrived early at the orphanage entrance.

With an Invisibility Talisman on her, Yuan Chun stood at the orphanage entrance, and after ten minutes, she saw a woman in her twenties carrying a sleeping toddler, sneaking around and looking suspicious.

When passing by Yuan Chun, Ma Cuiying didn’t notice anyone nearby. She glanced around, saw no one, quickly placed the child down, and ran off.

Once Ma Cuiying disappeared, Yuan Chun placed the protagonist into the Jade Gourd Space.

Ma Cuiying’s hometown wasn’t far from the Imperial City, about eight to nine hours by train, followed by a two-hour bus ride. By the time she got home, it was just dusk.

After being abandoned by her husband, Ma Cuiying lived alone with her daughter at the knowledge youth site. Now without her daughter, Ma Cuiying returned home to a cold, empty house and cried sorrowfully.

The next day, when Ma Cuiying opened the door, she saw her daughter standing at the entrance, with her big eyes eagerly looking at their door.

Ma Cuiying was shocked senseless.

She had clearly left her daughter at the orphanage door. How did her daughter come back?

Hurriedly, Ma Cuiying brought her daughter back inside, trying to ask her how she returned, but the little girl, just over a year old, couldn’t speak clearly. After a few questions, Ma Cuiying got no answers.

In frustration, Ma Cuiying slapped her a few times, causing the protagonist to wail loudly.

Ma Cuiying was a mother who favored sons over daughters. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have abandoned the protagonist. She despised her daughter for being a girl who couldn’t keep her husband around.

She resented that her daughter cried and fussed, causing her constant headaches.

Having been abandoned by her husband, she didn’t want to keep a burden that would hinder her search for a new love.

Thus, on the third day, Ma Cuiying requested a recommendation letter from the team leader and took her daughter to the county.

She paced back and forth in an alley in the county several times, and finally, when no one was around, she left her daughter at the door of an imposing three-entry mansion.

After placing her down, she ran.

Once Ma Cuiying was out of the alley, Yuan Chun looked at the sleeping protagonist, sighed silently, and placed her into the Jade Gourd Space. Then, she boarded a Flying Device back to the Imperial City.

In the early morning of the next day, Yuan Chun again piloted the Flying Device to return the protagonist to Ma Cuiying.

This repeated over and over, with Ma Cuiying abandoning the protagonist six times, and Yuan Chun returning her each time, using up the ten-odd lower-grade Invisibility Talismans she had accumulated.

When Ma Cuiying saw her daughter return for the sixth time, she didn’t abandon her again. She decided to keep and raise her daughter herself.

Three months later, Ma Cuiying married a widower from the same village.

The man was eight years older than her, with a seven-year-old son and a five-year-old daughter. Ma Cuiying married him because he worked at the transport team and had a steady monthly salary, and he offered a generous bride price.

From then on, the protagonist became the burdened step-child in her new stepfather’s household.

After returning to the Qin Family Village, Qin Dashan did not go back to his own house but stayed at Uncle Qin Er’s place.

Shortly after the male protagonist moved into Uncle Qin Er’s home, Uncle Qin Er saved a significant figure from the cowshed, and that person soon got reinstated to his position in the city.

To repay Uncle Qin Er’s lifesaving kindness, that person actually arranged for Qin Dashan and Qin Fang to be brought to the Imperial City Hospital for leg treatment.
