After the frail beauty went to the countryside, she went crazy with scientific research.

Chapter 445, Episode 0489: Some things just happen by chance.
When her child was five years old, Xiaofang was seriously injured by a wild boar. There was really no other way, so Xiaofang had to send her child down the mountain to ask for help.

Not long after the child left, Xiaofang succumbed to her injuries.

The first person the child encountered after coming down the mountain was a hunter surnamed Sun from the village. He was a good man. He guessed the general situation from the child's incoherent words and, without notifying anyone else, only called his own brother to go up the mountain to rescue the child.

But by the time they found Xiaofang, it was too late.

Back then, people in the countryside valued reputation a lot. If the village found out that Xiaofang had given birth to a child in the mountains, Xiaofang would die and that would be the end of it, but the surviving child would suffer.

The brothers discussed it and decided that this matter couldn't be told to anyone, at least not before the child grew up.

So the brothers secretly buried Xiao Fang, noted the location, and then took the child directly home. They told others that she was a distant relative who had become an orphan because her parents had died unexpectedly. Since their eldest brother had been married for over ten years without children, they adopted her as their son.

Did you think things would be fine once you got to this point?

Wrong. If everything were truly happy, there wouldn't be Professor Le howling in the corridor.

Before they knew it, several elderly men and women had gathered around Lin Yuexi and Xu Shan, all staring at Xu Shan with gossipy expressions, practically saying, "Keep going!"

It wasn't that there weren't any young people around watching the drama unfold, but rather that they were too afraid to approach. However, while everyone was sighing, they all pricked up their ears.

Professor Le's reputation was well-known throughout the base, and everyone knew he possessed a certain mystical aura, though no one knew exactly what it was. Since they were finally able to catch a glimpse of the drama unfolding nearby, they had no choice but to concentrate and listen attentively!
As for the research, let's not rush it. Let's hear about it first. They also need to rest.

“Sun Ermao’s first adoptive father was a good man who treated Sun Ermao like his own son. However, he passed away when Sun Ermao was seven years old. Then his adoptive mother remarried and moved to the Liu family in the next village.”

Sun Er Mao's first adoptive father, who was also Sun the hunter's older brother, was born prematurely and was in poor health. So, when he had no children for more than ten years after his marriage, his family all assumed it was because of Sun's older brother.

There might be some connection, but they didn't know that Sun Ermao's adoptive mother was actually infertile.

The reason she was willing to marry Brother Sun, who was ill, was because she already knew she couldn't have children.

In their area, if a woman is married for more than a year without having children, not only will she be looked down upon, but her family will also be gossiped about. If there are still unmarried girls in her family, the marriage will be delayed, and some who are already married will even be sent back to their parents' home.

Therefore, for Sun Ermao's adoptive mother, Brother Sun was the best choice. His health was well-known to be poor, and no one would suspect that she was infertile because she had never had a child.

If she's lucky, the Sun family might compensate her out of guilt.

She got her wish. In the more than ten years she was with Brother Sun, she hardly ever worked in the fields. As long as she took good care of her husband, her family was very grateful to her, and she always received any benefits from the family.

After her first husband passed away, she married Liu Datou, a man from the next village who already had three children. She brought her son, Sun Ermao, with her when she married him. She claimed that she was getting old, that having many children would be a heavy burden, and that she wanted to devote herself to her husband's older children. So she went to the hospital to have a tubal ligation.

Good heavens! Not only was Liu Datou deeply moved, but the hearts of several children were also won over by her 'selfless' act, and she also gained a good reputation.

It was Sun Ermao who suffered.

Liu Datou was just an ordinary farmer, an honest and unassuming man with little temper, commonly known as a "good-for-nothing." Apart from having some physical strength to earn more work points, he had no other income besides farming.

He earned more work points than the average person, but his family had more mouths to feed. Especially after Sun Ermao's adoptive mother married into the family, because of the tubal ligation, the family didn't let her work in the fields, so they had to feed two more mouths to feed, and the four children were all still half-grown boys.

As the family's circumstances worsened, life became increasingly difficult for Sun Ermao, the adopted son of his stepmother. He was like a carbon copy of his mother, eating the least food while doing the most work besides Liu Datou, and also enduring beatings from the three brothers every now and then.

Back then, everyone was struggling financially. When Sun Ermao's adoptive mother wanted to remarry, she had a falling out with the hunter's family. At that time, Sun Ermao took the initiative to go with his adoptive mother, which made the Sun family feel somewhat disheartened. After that, they didn't pay much attention to the mother and son.

This continued until Sun Ermao was twenty-six years old.

Because of a piece of meat, Liu Datou's eldest son beat Sun Ermao so badly that his head was bleeding and he lay there silent for a long time. The whole family was used to it and no one cared whether he lived or died. It was only when a child passed by his house that he accidentally saw it and ran to tell the brigade leader. The brigade leader led people to break down Liu Datou's house and carried the man to the town hospital.

On the way to town, they encountered Hunter Sun, who was on his way back to the village after hunting and selling his game on the black market.

The two sides had acquaintances, and after chatting for a while, Sun the hunter learned the identity of the injured man and realized that the child had not been doing well in the neighboring village all these years.

Sun the hunter led his men to smash up Liu Datou's house and then took Sun Ermao back home.

But Sun Ermao had been bullied too badly by the Liu family over the years. Unlike his mother, who was like a weed, he had been bullied so much that he had become very timid and cowardly, just like Liu Datou.

The kind of person who can be bullied by anyone.

At twenty-six, it's time to find a wife.

Seeing how useless Sun Ermao was, the Sun family unanimously decided that they had to find him a hothead; if they found him another honest man, the young couple would be doomed.

There happened to be a girl in the village who was so hot-tempered that she was disliked and couldn't get married. She was actually a very good person, the secretary's youngest daughter, and not bad-looking either. It was just that she had a very fiery temper. She was the kind of person who could chase someone for ten miles with a knife if she disagreed with them.

The secretary's family is anxious because their daughter is already twenty-two and still unmarried. However, the secretary's family loves their daughter dearly and is reluctant to marry her off easily. Ideally, they would like her to live in the same village so they can keep an eye on her.

Professor Le was very handsome, and even now that he's older, he's still a refined and handsome old man. Sun Ermao looks just like him; there's no doubt about his appearance. It's okay to be timid, because a timid son-in-law means his daughter won't be bullied.

So, the two sides hit it off immediately and quickly arranged a wedding for the young couple.

"Won't something else change later?"

Professor Yang, one of the elderly ladies, patted her chest. The twists and turns of the train made her heart pound wildly.

Lao Le's son's life has been too difficult. No, it's not just Lao Le's son, but the entire Lao Le family has had a difficult life.

Which deity did they offend?

Xu Shan twitched his lips. He didn't want any more changes, but the fact was: "Sun Er Mao's wife died from postpartum hemorrhage during the birth of Sun Si Si."

"Sigh~"

A collective gasp filled the air.

Professor Le sat there with his head down, completely silent.

The soldiers around him were all silenced.
