Transmigration: Becoming the Wicked Stepmother of Four Children

Chapter 2 Reversing the Situation of Child Selling

Liu Cuihua looked at Lu Qingqing with the eyes of someone looking at an idiot, and said viciously, "Did you fall down?"

Did I smash your pig head in? What kind of bullshit are you spouting?

"Hurry up and give the child to them, you'll get your money back," Liu Cuihua said disdainfully.

Lu Qingqing was practically spitting in Liu Cuihua's face.

He yelled back at Liu Cuihua, "What kind of thing are you?"

How dare you sell my children? They're so young, how could you bear to do that?

"You heartless, wicked thing, get out of my way!" Lu Qingqing said, stepping protectively in front of the children.

To keep the women from touching the little brats.

The children stopped crying and stared at their wicked stepmother as if they had seen a ghost.

Lin Shitou muttered under his breath: How could this vicious woman be so kind?

She was just thinking of selling the child, how come she changed her mind now?

Hearing Da Bao's words, Lu Qingqing didn't pay much attention and quickly said, "Stone,"

"Take your younger siblings home quickly, and once you're home, immediately close the door. Don't open it for anyone. Go home right now..."

Lin Shitou understood this, and immediately pulled his younger siblings home.

The kids closed and locked the door, and then they weren't so scared anymore.

They arrived at their father Chu Yunlan's bedside, and Shitou began to cry.

He was no longer the cute but fierce boy he had been just moments before. The other three, seeing their brother crying so sadly…

She started crying too.

He was rubbing his eyes and crying; after all, he was just a little boy of a little over six years old.

"Father, Father, please wake up!"

"That wicked woman is going to sell my younger brother and sister!" Stone said sadly.

"No, no, boss, she just said she's not selling to us anymore."

"Let's run home," four-year-old Shuang'er said in her baby voice, then let out a sob...

"It was my aunt, she just said it herself."

"The human traffickers were also hired by my aunt," said five-year-old Er Mao, who had just overheard Liu Cuihua's words.

"I think I heard that too," five-year-old Sanmao echoed her brother.

Just then, the door was banged on loudly, startling the children.

Liu Cuihua pounded on the door fiercely, and when she found it locked from the inside, she became even angrier.

Liu Cuihua cursed loudly, "You little brats!"

Open the door right now, or I'll skin you alive when I get home!

"Quickly, break down the door! Otherwise, everyone who went to work in the fields will be back soon..."

Then, they heard a series of banging sounds at the door. The little ones huddled together, terrified.

"You, Liu Cuihua, my child has already gone home, and you still won't give up!"

"If I don't teach you a lesson today, you won't know how many eyes Lord Ma has."

Lu Qingqing had just been tied up by several people, but luckily the system helped her untie herself.

Liu Cuihua, leading several human traffickers, stormed through the door and into the courtyard.

She stood with her hands on her hips, pointed at Lu Qingqing, and cursed, "You ungrateful wretch!"

Those two brats could fetch a good amount of money if sold; what are you meddling in for?

"Have you forgotten? You still have a husband who's a living dead and takes medicine."

Lu Qingqing glared at her angrily and retorted without backing down, "Liu Cuihua, do you have any conscience at all?"

These are my nephew and niece! How could you do such a heinous thing!

Liu Cuihua sneered, her face twitching with anger: "Conscience? What's it worth?"

Don't pretend to be a good person. Didn't you give these kids a cold shoulder before?

Lu Qingqing took a step forward, raising her voice slightly: "I was confused before."

But I will never let you sell the children! You dare touch them today!

Liu Cuihua spat and said fiercely, "Who do you think you are?"

You have no right to make decisions in this house! Get out of the way, or we'll take care of you too!

Lu Qingqing was furious and shouted, "You vicious woman, aren't you afraid of retribution?"

You're capable of doing something as heinous as selling children.

Aren't you afraid that evil spirits will come and take your life while you sleep at night?

Liu Cuihua's face turned pale from the scolding, and she shouted in a shrill voice, "Stop trying to scare me!"

I'm determined to sell these kids today, and nobody can stop me!

Lu Qingqing gritted her teeth, her eyes seemingly spitting fire: "Liu Cuihua, don't even think about it!"

As long as I have a breath left, you won't succeed!

Liu Cuihua was completely enraged by Lu Qingqing's words, and she lunged at Lu Qingqing.

He was also cursing under his breath: "I'll teach you a stupid idiot to talk back, I'll tear your mouth apart!"

Lu Qingqing was not to be outdone; she dodged to the side, avoiding Liu Cuihua's attack.

He grabbed Liu Cuihua's arm and twisted it forcefully.

Liu Cuihua cried out in pain, but still refused to give up, raising her other hand to scratch Lu Qingqing's face.

Lu Qingqing reacted quickly, blocking the attack with her arm while simultaneously kicking Liu Cuihua in the stomach.

Liu Cuihua was kicked so hard that she stumbled back a few steps and almost fell to the ground.

The two exchanged blows, fighting fiercely.

Liu Cuihua's hair was disheveled and her clothes were torn; Lu Qingqing wasn't in much better shape.

Several bloody scratches appeared on his face.

The human traffickers standing nearby turned pale with fright at the sight of the fierce fight.

They originally only wanted to make some ill-gotten gains, but they never expected to encounter such a ruthless and reckless person.

One of the traffickers said, trembling, "We...we shouldn't get involved in this."

"It's so much trouble, why don't we just run away!" The other traffickers nodded and turned to run.

Seeing the human traffickers escape, Liu Cuihua became even more anxious.

She attacked Lu Qingqing even more frantically: "It's all your fault, you bitch! You scared everyone away! We've lost all our money!"

Taking advantage of Liu Cuihua's distraction, Lu Qingqing suddenly shoved her, knocking her to the ground.

Liu Cuihua fell flat on her face and lay on the ground for a long time, unable to get up.

Lu Qingqing pointed at Liu Cuihua and cursed, "Liu Cuihua, if you dare to make a move on the children again, I'll never forgive you!"

After saying that, he turned and went inside to comfort the frightened children.

Liu Cuihua, covered in dust and dirt, got up from the ground and watched Lu Qingqing's retreating figure.

He muttered curses under his breath, but dared not provoke them any further.

He could only slink back to his room, waiting for his mother to return so he could settle the score with him.

Lu Qingqing walked into the house and saw the children huddled in a corner.

His body was still trembling slightly, and his eyes were filled with fear and unease.

She slowed her pace and said softly, "Children, don't be afraid."

I've driven all the bad guys away; no one will hurt you anymore.

Shi Tou bit his lip, hugged his younger siblings tightly, and didn't say a word.

Er Mao and San Mao hid behind the stone, looking timidly at Lu Qingqing.

Lu Qingqing felt a pang of sorrow in her heart. She squatted down.

I tried to hold the children's hands, but they instinctively dodged away.

She sighed helplessly and said, "Children, Mother knows that I have done many wrong things in the past."

I'm sorry you've all suffered, but from today onwards, I will change. I will protect you and take good care of you.

At this moment, Shuang'er, who had been silent all along, raised her head, her voice trembling slightly: "Really?"

You won't hit Shuang'er and the guys anymore, right?

Lu Qingqing's eyes reddened, but she nodded firmly: "Shuang'er, be good."

"Mom means what she says. From now on, let's live a good life as a family, okay?"

Stone scoffed, "Who knows if what you're saying is true? Maybe it'll go back to the way it was in a couple of days."

Shuang'er tugged at Shi Tou's sleeve: "Big brother, I think she seems to have changed for the better this time."

"Shall we trust her one more time?"

Stone turned his head away and remained silent.

Looking at the children's reactions, Lu Qingqing secretly made a vow in her heart.

You must take action to make the children truly accept you.

She said gently, "Children, whether you believe it now or not..."

Time will tell, and your mother will work hard to give you a good life.

After saying that, Lu Qingqing quietly left the room, intending to make something to eat for the children.

She wants to warm the children's hearts little by little with her actions.
