Chapter 1: Chapter 1 Can’t Give Birth, Stone Woman?_1 Chapter 1: Chapter 1 Can’t Give Birth, Stone Woman?_1 “Save —”
An Jing sat in a pit over two ters deep, looking up, and kept calling for help, hoping soone would hear her and rescue her.
But, after shouting for a long ti, nobody ca to save her.
Her throat was getting a bit hoarse, so An Jing decided to rest a bit before shouting again.
Looking down at the ancient coarse cloth clothes on her body, An Jingxin felt sowhat conflicted. She was happy to have a second chance at life, but to be reborn in a country that didn’t exist in history made her sigh.
Indeed, An Jing had already died.
She died on a mission.
As a person of the 21st century who died for her country, she had no regrets, but she never imagined her soul would travel to an ancient woman’s body.
This ancient woman was nad Lin Anjing, her na was just one ‘Lin’ character more than her own.
An Jing was relieved that she not only reborn in Lin Anjing’s body but also retained Lin Anjing’s mories. Otherwise, she would still be clueless about her situation.
Thinking about Lin Anjing’s circumstances, An Jing could only heave a deep sigh, “Alas…”
Lin Anjing was the youngest daughter of an ordinary peasant family in Jiuping Village of Xiyun Kingdom, 18 years old and yet unmarried.
It’s not that Lin Anjing didn’t want to marry; nobody wanted to marry her.
Lin Anjing was originally engaged, but the family she was engaged to sohow learned that Lin Anjing had never nstruated. Believing her to be a ‘Stone Woman’ incapable of bearing children—a grave issue in ancient tis—they broke off the engagent when Lin Anjing was only 15 years old.
Also, because of that broken engagent, the fact that Lin Anjing was a ‘Stone Woman’ spread, resulting in no one wanting to marry her. Thus, Lin Anjing beca a spinster of marrying age.
As a ‘Stone Woman’, Lin Anjing endured the village people’s mockery for three years.
Being constantly mocked made the sensitive and timid Lin Anjing unable to even lift her head and grew more and more solitary. Eventually, she would lower her head whenever she went out to work.
Lin Anjing’s family was already not fond of her, and now, with her being a ‘Stone Woman’ and unable to marry off, they despised her even more. They assigned her all the dirty and tireso chores and even beat and scolded her frequently.
Lin Anjing’s parents were alive, and she had an older brother who was the apple of their parents’ eye while Lin Anjing was treated like a slave, living a life worse than a beast’s.
“Alas,” An Jing sighed again, “gender preference is unacceptable.”
Just this morning, Lin Anjing was instructed by Lin’s mother to go up the mountain to chop firewood but accidentally fell into a trap set by a hunter.
The trap was a pit over two ters deep ant to catch wild animals. Having fallen in, it appeared Lin Anjing had hit her head and died on the spot.
When her eyes opened again, the body was the sa, but the soul had changed—it was now An Jing.
“This really turns out in my favor.” An Jing regarded her new body with satisfaction. Despite being as thin as a bamboo pole, it was surprisingly strong, likely the result of long-term labor doing dirty and tireso chores.
“Lin Anjing, rest assured, I’ll cherish this body of yours,” An Jing solemnly promised the air.
After all, she had nobody holding her back in the modern world.
Maybe it was because she had died once that she now especially valued life and wanted to live well once more.
Taking a deep breath, An Jing looked up again, and shouted at the top of her voice, “Sobody save —”
