Chương 1: Chapter 1 - Why did she get reborn
Her body was wrapped in a warm fluid, and the sound of fluids gently rippling could be heard in her ears, followed by a constant pressure around it.
At the same time, blood curdling screams and loud noises could be heard from the outside.
Liu Yusheng lay quietly and didn't do anything, allowing the force of squeezing to push her out.
She was in the belly of a woman now, and was about to be born.
Already discouraged, she couldn't understand why God wanted her to be reborn again, and still reborn bearing the memories of her previous life.
Depriving her of the right to even forget that tragic period.
"Oh, Lady Liu, don't faint! Come on, push harder, harder, harder!"
"It's been two hours. You can't faint at this time, you're close, let's just send the child out of the door!"
"Continue pushing hard, the child doesn't seem to be moving. If she still doesn't come out, it will be dangerous, try harder! I can see the head now, hurry, push harder!"
After scraping that hollering, a more poignant cry resonated, followed by a vigorous push, then Liu Yusheng was squeezed out of the narrow channel.
An uncontrollable wail popped out of her mouth.
"She's born, she's born!" Someone wrapped her in a swaddle, "It is a girl, congratulations to the old lady of the Liu family, the mother and daughter are safe."
Even if her eyes couldn't be opened, Liu Yusheng's eyes were filled with taunting.
This baby girl was about to be rejected, exactly like her previous life.
Later, she will be thrown into a frosty place and left alone.
"A baby girl? Very good! Okay!" She was picked up with both hands, holding her gently, as if afraid of hurting her, followed by the sound of immense joy, "This is the first daughter of our Liu family, oh, grandma's amazing granddaughter!"
"Wife, don't keep her to yourself there, take our baby out and show me!" A little farther, the cheery booming male voice urged across the door panel. The same voice was filled with excitement, joy and impatience.
The scorn beneath Liu Yusheng's eyes solidified, but her cold heart seemed to be scratched by something, trembling inexplicably, which she ignored deliberately.
"What's the hurry, your wife hasn't hugged her enough yet, oohh, look at these eyes, these eyebrows, she looks like me! Grandma's sweetie, oohh ~" The small baby was surrounded by the arms of an old woman, with the faint smell of sweat and dirt penetrating into her nasal cavity. Strange, Liu Yusheng felt no disgust.
She had been a doctor in her previous life and was an extreme neatnik, but this smell, really, did not make her sick.
"Mother, while I still have some strength, let me feed the baby first. And then I will still have to trouble the mother to bathe the child and put on her baby clothes." On the bed, a young woman's voice came, soft, warm, and somewhat weak, but suffused with unconditional love.
"Ey, okay, feed the baby first, I'll go get some hot water, just lie down and don't move. You can't catch the wind right after giving birth, nor can you get any more tired. Don't get yourself sick. Don't bother about other things, your mother and father are all here, there's no need to worry." The old lady placed the baby gently and cautiously next to her daughter-in-law and rushed out like a breeze, not forgetting to command along the way. "Old man, give the midwife the prepared lucky money, add five more copper coins! Dalin, guard the door, help Xiulan if she calls for anything. Zhiqiu and Zhixia, come to help grandma set the basin, and bring the babywear on the bedside in the room. Grandma wants to give your sister a bath!"
"Got it, give me the lucky money in your pocket before you go get hot water!"
"Grandma, I can help. Can I hug my sister for a moment? I'm already grown up and strong. I'm sure I won't drop her!"
"I want to hug her, too. I'm also strong!"
...
"The chattering conversation carried on fever pitch slowly drifted away. The jubilant atmosphere in the whole house permeated in the air, and lingered for a long time.
The midwife cleaned up the bloody room and cheerfully went out, taking away her auspicious coins.
Liu Yusheng was gently embraced into someone's arms with both hands. Realizing that she was about to breastfeed, she subconsciously resisted, but her body was totally out of her control. As soon as she touched the warmth and softness around her mouth, her mouth automatically opened and sucked, emitting small grunts.
Liu Yusheng felt a moment of desperation.
She's a neat freak!
But the hand gently stroking her back, the soft touch in her mouth, and the sweet fragrance of milk, all of which were strange and novel experiences, making her … nostalgic.
Fortunately, the jar had already broken so she closed her eyes and sucked desperately.
"Xiulan, Xiulan, " A cry came out of the door. Then the man whispered: "How's our baby? Is she eating?"
"She is, our baby is well-behaved." The woman answered festively in a whisper.
"Isn't the baby very beautiful? Does she look like you or me? Mother is really unbelievable, she refused to give way and give me a look!" A cat seemed to scratch the man's heart as he complained in disgruntlement.
The woman giggled and placated, "After the room is cleaned up, you can come in and see."
Thereafter, she heard the woman driving him away, "What are you doing here, get out, it's unlucky! The smell in the room hasn't faded away yet!"
"Shh, shh~ lower your voice, let me have a peek! I'm the baby's father, she's already born, but I didn't even have a glimpse of her, I really can't bear just standing outside!" The man hurriedly tiptoed up to the bed, crouched down, with a pair of eyes overflowing with joy and affection of a father stuck on the baby eating, "This is our daughter, little dumpling, she's truly the love deep in a man's heart. Baby, I am your father. Can you hear dad talking? Whoops, look at her little mouth, she's drinking anxiously, she must be hungry. Eat slowly, eat enough, and sleep well…Hey, Xiulan, look at our baby, the eyebrows, the eyes, they're exactly like me, don't you think so? Our daughter resembles me…"
"Her eyebrows and eyes are just like her mother." "… Anyway, our baby looks like me!"
Liu Yusheng closed her eyes tighter and sucked harder, pretending to be a newborn who didn't understand anything. This father was plain stupid.
At the same time, she found herself truly helpless in her current situation.
Everything she has imagined was completely different.
It seems different from her previous life.
"Xiulan, say, when will she grow up? When she grows up, I will take her to pick fruits, catch rabbits, and buy her a beautiful flower headdress … Xiulan, I really want to give our daughter the best of everything in the world… "
The man was tucked beside the bed, teary babbling endlessly of his joy, so noisy and long-winded.
However, it wasn't annoying at all.
He's just stupid.
Liu Yusheng gradually stopped sucking and fell asleep unconsciously.
Before falling asleep, she clearly felt the cold corner of her heart warming up.
