Chapter 1 Accidentally Became the Stepmother of Three Bastards

"Help...help! Help me!"

A woman kept splashing in the water, and two children stood on the river bank, looking at the woman in the river coldly and indifferently.

The two children were about eleven or twelve years old. The older one still had a childish look on his face, but his eyes had an indifference that people of the same age should not have.

The younger one looked at the boy next to him in a panic, and spoke timidly.

"Brother, can we do this? He is our mother..."

"She is not our mother, our mother has died long ago!"

Gao Yuanshan looked cold, "If it weren't for her, our father wouldn't have died!"

"But..." Gao Changhe looked at the woman sinking in the river with some fear.

Gao Yuanshan touched his brother's head: "Don't worry, if she dies, we will go find our uncle and aunt, they will take care of us."

When the woman disappeared from the river, Gao Yuanshan immediately looked horrified and shouted loudly: "Someone is coming - someone is coming quickly! My mother fell into the river!!"

The children's shouts attracted other people in the village.

Several villagers hurriedly jumped into the river to fish out the woman who fell into the water, but she was already dead...

…

Her throat was stuffy and she couldn't breathe. Gu Manxiu coughed several times and spit out several mouthfuls of water before she slowly recovered.

Gu Manxiu opened his eyes and found a large group of men and women surrounding him, looking at him with wide eyes.

There were two children beside him, one looked indifferent and the other looked timid.

What's going on?! What's going on with all these people in ancient costumes?

Without a camera, it’s not filming.

Gu Manxiu calmed down. Could it be that she had traveled through time?!

Suddenly, a memory flooded into my mind.

The original owner married into the Zhou family a month ago, and did not want her husband to die just after she got married, leaving behind three naughty children.

The three children believed that the original owner had killed their parents, and they held a grudge against the original owner. They pushed her into the river and drowned her while she was washing clothes!

And now Gu Manxiu has become the victim!

Looking at these two children, Gu Manxiu was filled with anger.

She stood up and kicked the two children to the ground.

"Hey! You! After all, the two dolls saved you, how could you do this to them!" The village chief slowly helped the two dolls up and pulled them aside.

"Save me?! I was pushed into the water by these two black-hearted kids. If I hadn't been lucky, I would have drowned!"

"Ah this..."

The villagers couldn't help but be horrified after hearing this. They didn't expect the two children of the Gao family to have such thoughts?!

The village chief was also silenced for a long time and could only comfort Gu Manxiu with a smile.

"This...Yuanshan and Changhe's parents died early, and they were young. There is also a little girl at home. You are the child's father who married into the family. The children miss their biological parents, so you are indispensable.

Be more patient!"

The corners of Gu Manxiu's mouth twitched slightly, should you be more patient?

Then she deserved to be pushed into the river?

She glanced at the two children who were being protected by the village chief.

Gao Yuanshan looked at him indifferently, with a provocative smile on his face.

Gao Changhe timidly hid behind his brother, his two dark little eyes staring at her closely, with no good intentions.

Gu Manxiu felt a chill in her heart: She is so evil-hearted at such a young age, she cannot be with him!

She pinched her tender flesh and her eyes filled with tears: "Village chief, please give me your opinion!"

"My husband died right after I got married, and I became a widow at a young age. I had to raise my husband's three children, and I became a stepmother even though I was still a young girl!"

She squeezed out a few drops of crocodile tears: "I live frugally and spend everything I have to focus on my three children.

I have been working so hard this month, doing everything. The three children are young and ignorant, so it’s okay if they don’t help me with the work. I serve them hard and without complaint, and yet they still want to kill me! Village Chief

, I can't stay here any longer, you'd better let me go..."

Gu Manxiu's cry resonated with the women in the village, and they also began to complain about Gu Manxiu.

The men were silent when they saw this. Although Gu Manxiu was the stepmother, she really treated the three children as her own.

There was a person hidden in the crowd, watching this scene with interest.

Unexpectedly, Gao Changhe suddenly shouted and rushed in front of Gu Manxiu, beating her repeatedly.

"It's all you...it's all you! It was you who killed my parents!! You are not my mother! My mother is already dead! She died because of marrying your father! Give me your parents back!"

Seeing this scene, the villagers became convinced of Gu Manxiu and stepped forward to hold Gao Changhe.

"How come you don't know how to be grateful! Your mother is so good to you, and you still want to kill her?!"

The village chief pulled Gao Changhe aside and walked over to comfort Gu Manxiu.

"My child, I know you are suffering, but you still have to live your life no matter how hard it is, right? These three children have lost their parents. If you want to leave them alone, no one will care about them."

Although the village chief's tone was calm, his attitude could not be rejected.

Seeing that the village chief had no intention of letting her go, Gu Manxiu expressed his attitude.

"In this case, I will stay. I can't leave these three alone anyway. I don't think I have ever done anything wrong to them. No matter what the people in the village do, they can't accuse me of treating them badly! Otherwise, I will go home directly. Anyway,

I am young and beautiful, and there are always men who will like me!"

Seeing Gu Manxiu say this, the village chief didn't have anything to say anymore, so he had to agree to Gu Manxiu.

Seeing that the village chief nodded in agreement to her request, Gu Manxiu said nothing more.

She glanced at the boss and the two who were squatting aside with sullen faces, walked over and kicked each of their butts.

"Go! Go to the river and wash your clothes!"

Although the eldest and second eldest brother were resentful, they did not dare to express their anger in front of the villagers, so they had no choice but to go to the river to wash clothes angrily.

The villagers couldn't see it, so they advised: "The children are still young, and you let them wash clothes by the river. If something happens to them, how will you explain it to their parents?"

Gu Manxiu sneered: "If you can't stand it, why don't you help wash these clothes? If you really feel sorry for me, then you can accept these three children of my family, so that I can worry less!"

After saying that, she shook her sleeves and left.

Upon seeing this, the village chief hurried over and stopped Gu Manxiu.

"My fellow villagers, why bother? He is also kind-hearted. I apologize to you here for him...Boss and second, you should not make your mother angry in the future. If your mother doesn't care about you anymore, the three of you will have nothing to do with you in the future."

Home, do you hear me?"

Gao Yuanshan and Gao Changhe reluctantly nodded and reluctantly went to the river to wash clothes.

When the village chief saw that the situation had calmed down, he sent the villagers home.

Gu Manxiu looked at the boss and the second child and nodded with satisfaction: "After washing the clothes, remember to go home for dinner!"

The boss kicked over the washing tub and the whole tub of clothes floated in the river.
