Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space-Chapter 842: Huang Ying

Now he has no other thoughts at all. He just wants to leave here quickly, feeling extremely regretful, and he will definitely never think about this woman again.

He believes that if he moves slowly, he might be chopped up, it’s truly terrifying.

Li Laitou stumbled and crawled as he ran away. Huang Ying took a kitchen knife and locked the gate. She didn’t really want to do anything to Li Laitou, she just wants to live quietly now.

After this incident, Li Laitou will absolutely behave.

Li Laitou went back home, lay on the kang, thinking about the scene he just saw, shivered with fear, and decided to stay far away from this woman in the future. Too scary.

Li Chenggong surely doesn’t know the true nature of such a woman, right? Huang Ying came on her own, she wasn’t bought. Just based on the earlier stance, she must not be a good person.

He must avoid her, he doesn’t want her anymore, can’t afford to, doesn’t have the guts.

Huang Ying got on the kang again, yawned. The kitchen knife was placed right next to her pillow, and she slept soundly.

In the half month that Li Chenggong was away, she didn’t leave the house at all.

Li Chenggong prepared everything for her.

When five men brought five women into the village, Huang Ying heard the news, but she didn’t go out.

She knew how pitiful the women who were sold here were, but she couldn’t see them, and couldn’t help them.

Coming here, one can only accept fate. There is no way out. The men watch very closely. In previous years, there was no chance to contact outsiders.

Li Chenggong entered the village and didn’t care about these women, went straight home.

Seeing his wife unchanged, he was finally relieved.

"Yingying, I’m back. Look, I brought cloth for you, there’s some to make clothes for the child, and this piece of floral cloth is for you. And I brought you toilet paper, this is brown sugar."

Huang Ying smiled as she watched this man offer his treasures to her. Her heart was filled with happiness.

Good things are not unfamiliar to her, but none moved her like this pound of brown sugar and piece of cloth.

"Are you tired? I made some flatbread for lunch, there’s a lot, I’ll go get it for you."

"No need, I’ll get it myself."

Li Chenggong ate flatbread and steamed salty vegetables, finding them delicious, there wasn’t much food on the way. He had to watch the women carefully to prevent trouble, so he was very tired.

Huang Ying went outside to get him vegetable soup, which made eating feel more comfortable.

"Wife, I’m not going out next month. I’ve already arranged it."

Huang Ying sat close to him, "Thank you for listening to me."

"Okay, I’ll listen to you from now on."

Huang Ying smiled, believing their future days would surely be very happy.

The couple was affectionate at home, but the ancestral hall was noisy, there were too many without wives, and only five women, causing a commotion, everyone wanted a wife.

These five women seemed like chicks surrounded by vicious dogs, huddled together, trembling, although they’ve become numb after being trafficked, seeing these wild-like men still terrified them deeply.

Finally, the village chief spoke. These five men happily dragged the women away, they didn’t care about appearance now, as long as they could have children in the future.

"The rest don’t worry, I’ll go out again this month. It’s already arranged, still five more, don’t rush."

We can’t just watch village men all remain single, eventually leading to extinction.

Even knowing this is immoral, seeing the daughters terrified, he sympathizes with them, but there’s no choice. He can only turn a blind eye.

Li Laitou watched with envy, though the five women were disheveled, they were still women, women who could accompany him to sleep and bear children.

So when everyone left, he went to the village chief’s home.

"Li Laitou is here? Sit down and eat something?"

"Third Uncle, no need, I just came to see you, I want a wife too."

"Laitou, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but what can you offer for a wife? How will you support a wife and children?"

"Third Uncle, I’ll definitely be diligent in the future." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Laitou, just behave well, show me you’ve really changed, I’ll definitely find one for you. But not this year. Although I’ve done some immoral things, buying daughters, I can’t really harm them.

Laitou, use this opportunity to tidy up your home, do well next year, and I’ll find you a wife."

"Third Uncle, I’ll listen to you."

"You’re my nephew, I hope you do well, don’t want your family line to end."

"Third Uncle, I understand, watch my actions."

Li Laitou was truly determined, he must change, or the family line will really end.

Li Chenggong finished eating, washed up a bit, and Huang Ying urged him to sleep quickly. This half month should have been quite tiring. Even a body made of iron wouldn’t hold up.

Their days passed like this, soon it would be November, the village chief led five people down the mountain again, but this time Li Chenggong truly didn’t go.

Village Chief Li didn’t make things difficult for his nephew, honestly, if there wasn’t really no suitable person to go together, he wouldn’t want his son and nephew involved, believing it was immoral and fearing eternal damnation after death.

Huang Ying was very satisfied with Li Chenggong’s actions, she herself felt heavily burdened with sin and didn’t want her husband tainted.

This month, Huang Ying didn’t leave the house, but she did hear from Li Chenggong about the five women brought to the village, one of whom couldn’t stand the men’s harassment any longer. So she committed suicide.

Huang Ying felt sorry for her. With death, there’s nothing left, having gone through a near-death experience herself, she knows nothing is more important than staying alive.

But she simply sighed, she didn’t have the heart to help them, she couldn’t protect herself, how could she help others?

Besides, life would be peaceful for decades to come, at least until she dies. So it’s better to settle in peacefully.

If she got a chance to meet them, she’d advise them that fighting their existence isn’t worth it.

"Chenggong, you should also advise the men, life ahead is still long, how pointless is this?"

"I’ve mentioned it, but they don’t listen, I can’t do anything."

Actually, Li Chenggong thought they were too foolish. Doing this would make them lose everything. Treating wives kindly might warm women’s hearts. Then they can live long and peacefully together.
