Ying Cailan continued: "There is a little girl who has many sisters at home."
"The first four are called Xidi, Pandi, Zhaodi, and Laidi."
"Before the fifth child was born, the fourth sister could just walk, and the three older sisters had to work every day. They would start earning money to support the family at the age of five or six."
"later……"
"Her parents are pregnant again. They are looking forward to the birth of a son. They pray to all kinds of gods and Buddhas."
"However, God did not fulfill his wish."
"The fifth child is born, and it's a girl!"
"She doesn't have a younger brother yet, so I named her Wangdi."
"My family was already very poor and could not afford to raise so many children."
"The family was too poor to open the pot. The moment the fifth child was born, he found out that it was a daughter. Her father was so cruel that he threw the newborn into the bucket and drowned!"
"Then, it was announced to the outside world that the child would not survive after birth."
"This kind of thing is not uncommon. Even if everyone in the village knows what's going on, no one will accuse it."
"At that time, the laws were not perfect, and information in the countryside was limited. Killing one's own daughter was not a big deal."
Hearing this, Yan Peiyu frowned.
He was born into a royal family and grew up wealthy, so he couldn't quite understand this kind of poverty.
So poor that you would kill your own flesh and blood?
He asked: "What happened next?"
Ying Cailan shrugged and said, "Later, there were also the sixth and seventh children, both of whom were girls."
"When the sixth child was born, the father wanted to strangle him immediately."
"Because of the death of the fifth child, the mother was a little bit embarrassed. She didn't let him do this, so she gave the sixth child to an acquaintance for adoption."
"It was a family that couldn't give birth to a child. Although they were poor, they did pretty well for the child they picked up."
"As for Lao Qi, the mother has given birth to so many children, and her health is already extremely bad. She fainted after giving birth."
"When she woke up, she couldn't see her. The child had already been buried."
Yan Peiyu: "..."
He knew that many things in the world were outrageous, and it was not uncommon for the royal family to kill each other and cause trouble.
There are even some who kill their fathers and brothers.
But this...
What did she do wrong with the newborn baby?
Just because you were reincarnated as the wrong gender?
His mood gradually changed from the mentality of listening to stories at the beginning.
A little depressed, a little angry!
Ying Cailan's story is not over yet: "When the eldest was sixteen, the family stopped allowing them to continue studying."
"As a father, I asked the boss to marry me..."
Speaking of this, she paused: "Oh, by the way, the legal age for marriage in that era was twenty for a woman. Sixteen is not protected by national laws."
"It's not like what we are doing now. I'm only sixteen years old and I'm here to celebrate your birthday. If you don't survive, I'll have to bury you with you!"
Yan Peiyu: "..."
He felt that he shouldn't speak.
Ying Cailan didn't let him speak, and continued: "The sixteen-year-old eldest son was married off like this, and her father got a betrothal gift in exchange for it."
"When you marry your daughter, you don't give her a dowry of even a copper coin, which is equivalent to a buyout."
"The eldest son had no support from his mother's family and was bullied by his husband's family. He couldn't bear the mental pressure and committed suicide by jumping into a river two years later."
"At this time, the second child is also sixteen years old."
"Afraid that she would follow in the footsteps of her boss, she ran away to work in another province and never came home again."
"As for the dog father, he turned around and locked up the third child, who was less than fifteen years old, and sold him to a widower in the village as a child bride."
"At the same time, the fourth child has also been decided."
"In the past few years, we have worked hard later."
"When I was the eighth child, I finally had a baby brother!"
"However, after trying hard to have a son, the mother died in confinement because her body bones were damaged due to frequent childbirth, and because her family was poor and she did not supplement her nutrition every time after giving birth."
"The father couldn't take care of the child, so his relatives told him about a daughter-in-law, so he used the money from selling his fourth son to marry a stepmother."
"When the stepmother came, she gave birth to a son."
"There may be good stepmothers in this world, but most stepmothers, even if they do not viciously persecute children born from their previous wives, are always indifferent to them."
"The son born to the original wife will be as miserable as grass without his mother."
"I was idle and ignorant. Later, when I was twelve or thirteen years old, I got into a fight and was beaten to death."
After listening, Yan Peiyu was speechless.
What kind of weird family is this!
He frowned and asked, "No one in the whole family has a good ending?"
"That's right!" Ying Cailan smiled.
But that smile was not pleasant at all, but more sarcastic.
She said calmly: "The sixth child who was sent away is the only one who is considered good."
"But if you have to say it's good, it's not particularly good."
"She was adopted by a childless family. Within a few years, her home was ransacked by a group of passing gangsters."
"Those gangsters saw that she was smart and cute, so they took her away."
"Did you know that some men are just like beasts and like to play with little girls?"
Hearing this, Yan Peiyu frowned even more.
He looked at the coldness in her eyes and suddenly understood something!
Ying Cailan smiled and didn't say what happened to the little girl.
Actually, she couldn't remember much about how old she was.
It's something that mercenary fathers don't care much about, and they won't tell her.
So, when it comes to painful memories, there are none.
It's just that I was very indifferent to that period of the past.
She continued: "Not long after, this group of gangsters were wiped out by a group of private mercenaries."
"Lao Liu fell into the hands of these mercenaries."
"Originally they planned to kill her, but the life of being dependent on others since childhood made Lao Liu not only very delicate and sensitive, but also very good at making people happy."
"She made this group of mercenaries happy. Anyway, a group of desperadoes were prepared to be childless for the rest of their lives, so they raised her on a whim."
"Lao Liu has a lot of fathers."
"They were all very kind to her, taught her skills, and gave her the best resources and a good life."
"From then on, Lao Liu lived a life of being shot at every now and then, and kidnapped after a month or two."
"But overall, life is much better than that of many people who are in dire straits!"
"It's a pity that when she was in her twenties, she was killed by a big explosion while hiding in the base research institute for experiments."
This story is Ying Cailan herself.
She is the sixth child!
Why do you know your own life experience?
It's a coincidence.
She was still very young at that time, and her mercenary father happened to be on a mission, and the target of the mission was hiding in the village where Ying Cailan was born.
While doing the task, the father found out a lot of things, and many clues showed that the little girl they adopted was the sixth child of this family!
