    As Liu’s second childbirth was approaching, Xue Yang decided to go to the county to buy daily necessities and supplements for his wife. The most profound scene in Xue Manqing’s childhood memory was when her father gently pressed three kisses before going out, one on her forehead, her mother’s lips, and her bulging pregnant belly.

    “I’ll be back soon.” Xue Yang’s face was full of tenderness and sweetness as he said goodbye to his wife and daughter.”Bao’er, mom is going to trouble you.”

    After receiving her father’s instructions, Xue Siniu nodded seriously.

    “Well, I will take good care of my mother and brother.” She patted her chest hard like a little adult.”Don’t worry, Dad, we’ll wait for you to come home.”

    “Okay!”

    But this time, Xue Siniu didn’t wait for her father, and Liu Er didn’t wait for her husband.

    Xue Yang met a robber.

    From the mountains to the county town, we have to go through a long, winding and rugged mountain road.

    Although public security has improved in recent years, Xuejia Village is located in a mountain valley, and the road connecting it to the outside world has not yet been fully opened, let alone the entry of the public security system. This gives gangsters an opportunity to often rob pedestrians passing by.

    Therefore, when people from Xuejia Village go out to the county town, they always go together.

    This time Xue Yang set out with two other families, but the return trip encountered heavy rain. The others discussed and decided to stay overnight locally. Only Xue Yang, who was worried about his pregnant wife and young daughter, insisted on rushing back to the village despite the dissuasion of others.

    Unexpectedly, he encountered an accident.

    When he received the news, Liu Er fainted.

    Xue Siniu was still dumbfounded and didn’t know why she lost her father overnight. It wasn’t until her pale-faced grandmother held her in her arms that she burst into tears as if she suddenly understood.

    What happened next was like a nightmare.

    After losing her father, she then lost her mother.

    Liu Er died in childbirth.

    When she was giving birth, someone sent a message saying that Xue Yang’s body had been found.

    Before Xue Yang died, he was still holding something tightly in his hand. After identification, he found out that it was the corner of gold jewelry.

    This is probably the reason why Xue Yang was targeted, in order to protect the gold jewelry that he specially gave to his daughter and wife.

    Childbirth is inherently a dangerous process. When medical care was underdeveloped, it would be no exaggeration to say that it was like walking on the threshold of death.

    This incident broke Liu Erqiang’s last breath. As a result, Xue Siniu not only did not see her brother, but even her mother left with her.

    Overnight, she became an orphan without a father or a mother.

    Brother Xue Lin Zhao felt sorry for his granddaughter and took her to take care of her. Perhaps the loss of his beloved son was a huge shock. The condition of the old woman, who was still relatively strong, deteriorated day by day, and she passed away in the next year.

    Now, who will adopt Xue Siniu becomes a big problem.

    His uncle Xue Mu should take care of him emotionally and rationally. After all, before he died, Xue Lin asked his younger brother to worry about Xue Siniu and gave all his private property to Xue Mu. The condition was that he had to help raise Xue Siniu until she got married.

    That was a large amount of money, and it also included Xue Siniu’s future dowry.

    But Xue Erniu wouldn’t let him go.

    After giving birth to Xue Erniu, Xue Mu’s wife gave birth to three sons in succession. In the eyes of superstitious Xue Mu, these were all blessings brought by his daughter.

    Therefore, the most favored girls in the Xue family are undoubtedly Xue Erniu and Xue Siniu.

    Now that Xue Erniu is shouting not to let his parents adopt Xue Siniu, Xue Muwei is really having a headache. After all, everyone knows that he accepted the private property of Xue Lin Zhao’s younger brother. If he doesn’t raise Xue Siniu, it will be unjust and someone will definitely poke his back.

    But even the wife is unwilling to take on this responsibility.

    “Mom didn’t leave much private property at all! There are already four children in the family, and we can’t take care of one more. You see, the second and third brothers are not smart. They just act as hand-off shopkeepers, but there are not so many things to do.”

    “Hey, that’s what I said, but… alas!”

    His wife was nagging in his ears every day, Xue Erniu was arguing every day, and Xue Mu had a lot of white hair on his head because of this worry.

    Until he accidentally thought of a solution.

    It seems that this method was proposed by Xue Erniu.

    “Jinbao, we must be careful when we go out. If we accidentally get lost, we won’t be able to find our way home.”

    When Xue Erniu said this to her younger brother Jinbao, Xue Mu “happened” to hear it.

    So after careful discussion with his wife, this man who had been honest all his life did the first regretful thing in his life.

    One day, he coaxed Xue Si Niu to go shopping in the county town, but Xue Er Niu, who didn’t know it, cried about it. As a result, one big girl and one small girl left, but only Xue Mu came back.

    Many days passed.

    Xue Mu said that Xue Siniu wanted to buy toys when he saw them, but he didn’t have enough money, so he wanted to take Xue Siniu to a restaurant in the county town for dinner first. Unexpectedly, the baby disappeared before he went to the bathroom.

    He searched for a whole week, called the police and paid people to buy information, but there was no news about Xue Siniu despite the huge crowd.
