Chapter 155: Returning To The Place Of Her Birth

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the morning, Li An’an took the three little ones and boarded the bus heading to the suburbs. They looked as though they were fleeing for their lives! Fortunately, the kids were sensible and they were little to worry, so she didn’t feel exhausted.

After two hours of being in the bus and an hour of walking, they finally arrived at their destination. It was a dilapidated wooden house.

The house wasn’t big, but the courtyard was huge and overgrown with weeds.

However the scenery outside the house was great. There was a big banyan tree that had a trunk so thick that a few people would have to join hands to go around its girth. In the distance beyond the tree was a stream that was so clear that one could see the bottom. There was a layer of cobblestones at the bottom of the river, and small fish and shrimp swam around in the water! On the other side of the stream was a huge mountain. The environment was beautiful, with mountains and clear water.

“Mommy, this place is amazing!” The three children liked it very much.

Li An’an’s heart ached. This was her birthplace. She had lived here till she was eight before she was sent to the orphanage.

This small mountain village bore her childhood, but there was no joy in those years. There were only beatings, scoldings and crying. It was not until her father killed someone because of gambling that she was sent to an orphanage and her life improved.

However, she still felt that this was her home!

“All right, let’s get to work.” Li An’an put on her hat and gloves, took out the broom she had brought with her, and started cleaning.

The three little fellows helped to pull the weeds.

“Ah!! Ya!” Li Baobao clumsily pulled out a blade of grass and fell to the ground.

“Mommy, the grass bullied me.”

. ‘ Li An’an had much to do but lifted the child from the ground nevertheless.

Li Junjun found a rusty little hoe and started digging carefully.

Meanwhile, Li Jinjün was in charge of pulling out the grass that his big brother had loosened.

Li An’an tidied up the yard and then went to tidy up the house. She had not come to the house for many years and it was covered in dust and dark gray spider webs. There was a musty smell in the air.

“Mommy, whose house is this?”

“This is where Mommy lived when I was young. It’s very dirty in here. Why don’t you go outside with Big Brother?”

Li Baobao was very obedient. Poor Mommy. She was so pitiful when she was young. The girl’s eyes filled with tears!

It took Li An’an three hours to clean up the place. Sunlight streamed in, and newspapers were spread over where they were going to sit. Li An’an and the three kids had lunch, which consisted of biscuits and steamed buns.

When she was finally free, she turned on her phone and saw more than ten numbers on it. She felt guilty.

She did not take the calls. In any case, she had to keep a distance from Chu Yichen. She was still panicking from their interaction yesterday. She had lied to him too much. She could not imagine her plight if her lies were to be exposed. It was better to return to the state where they didn’t know each other.

In the afternoon, Li An’an went to a nearby house to buy chicken. As there was no transportation, most of the people here had moved out. The old man had very kindly sold her a chicken.

However, the old man’s wife kept staring at her, making her feel uncomfortable.

“That’s Liu Zhi’s daughter, right? Wasn’t she adopted by a rich man? Why is she back?”

She sat at the door and watched as Li An’an walked away. Then, she walked out of the door and headed towards the small path in front of her.

When Li An’an returned home, she brought the hoe to the mountain behind the house and dug up a type of wild vegetable root. There was a type of medicinal herb and hen stew that they cooked here. It was so delicious that one could eat their fingers. It also had the ability to nourish one’s energy and blood.

She had previously mentioned to An Xiaohui that she probably wanted to prepare a dish this time. Now, she was a step ahead. Let An Xiaohui suffer the consequences of her own actions!

When she returned home, she killed the chickens and washed the pots.. Then, she went to the stream and started filming!
