Chapter 2: Changing Children

Shen Daya knew that they would definitely come, so she asked Ergou to buy a fruit knife yesterday, just for this occasion. She stared at Li Guihua with the knife in her hand and shouted coldly, "Ergou, get out first."

Ergou looked at the elder sister holding the knife and stood there stupidly. He didn't move even when he was told to leave. Shen Daya called him again and he came back to his senses. He walked out and said, "Eldest sister, put down the knife. Tell me what you want to say."

After Ergou left, Li Guihua looked at Shen Daya who was holding a knife, and saw that she didn't make any moves, but just pointed the knife at her, so she thought Daya didn't dare to do it. So she became bolder and stepped forward to grab the knife from Daya.

Seeing Li Guihua reaching out her hand, Shen Daya curled the corners of her mouth and stabbed her outstretched palm hard. The knife stabbed into Li Guihua's palm, "Ah--" a pig-killing howl sounded in the ward.

Grandma Shen went forward to pull Shen Daya, but Shen Daya dodged her. She pulled the knife out of Li Guihua's palm, and Li Guihua broke out in a cold sweat from the pain. Shen Daya pointed the bloody knife at Grandma Shen and told them not to move.

There were footsteps outside. Ergou wanted to open the door and come in, but was stopped by Shen Daya's voice. The blood on Li Guihua's palm kept flowing. She looked at Shen Daya angrily: "Just wait and see how I will deal with you when I come back. You stabbed me with a knife and stole money from our family. I will let the police arrest you."

"Daya, put the knife down immediately, return the money, and apologize to your mother." Grandma Shen advised.

After hearing what they said, Shen Daya looked calm: "Huh! Arrest me? Arresting you is more like arresting you. I was stolen back by you."

After hearing her words, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law suddenly became quiet, their faces full of disbelief.

At this time, someone outside ran into the ward. It was a six-person room. Except for Shen Daya, no one else was in the ward. When the nurse entered the ward, she saw Li Guihua with blood on her hands. She quickly ran forward and asked, "What's going on?"

When the nurse came in, Shen Daya put down the fruit knife in her hand. She pretended to be anxious and scared: "Comrade nurse, my mother was trying to peel fruit for me just now, and she accidentally got stabbed by the knife."

The nurse didn't think much of it when she heard this. After all, there were many things going on in the hospital. She helped Li Guihua up and said, "Comrade, I'll take you to get the bandage done."

The two walked out of the ward, and Ergou followed them because he was worried about Li Guihua.

Shen Daya was not worried that Li Guihua would talk nonsense. After all, her words just now had already scared Li Guihua. After everyone left, Shen Daya and Grandma Shen were the only ones left in the room.

Grandma Shen looked at Shen Daya with a cold face and said, "Da Ya, how could you be exchanged? Our family doesn't lack children." Shen Daya looked at Grandma Shen's guilty look with sarcasm. Seeing that she was still trying to quibble, she raised her eyebrows and said, "Grandma, sixteen years ago, Captain Shen's wife gave birth, and you were the one who delivered her. At that time, Captain Shen's wife gave birth to a girl, and Li Guihua also gave birth to a girl two days ago."

"What does this have to do with the baby swap?" Grandma Shen insisted, but Shen Daya said, "When Li Guihua's child was born, he was like a kitten, very weak, and didn't look like he would live long. You even asked a barefoot doctor in the village to see him. The doctor also said that the child would be difficult to raise and would die if you were not careful. But after a few days, the child recovered and became plump and white. The child born by Captain Shen's wife is the same as Li Guihua's child. Why do you think this is?"

Seeing that Grandma Shen didn't say anything, she continued, "You secretly switched me with your own granddaughter. Do you think that no one knows about it?"

After hearing what Shen Daya said, although Grandma Shen didn't know how she knew these things, she knew she couldn't hide it anymore. She sighed and explained: "Daya, there's nothing Grandma can do. That child is your mother's first child, and the family conditions are not good. Your mother knelt down and begged me to exchange the child to Captain Shen's home so that the child can have good conditions and survive. There's nothing we can do. It's all because of poverty." "Oh, then do I deserve to be exchanged to your home to suffer?" Shen Daya looked at Grandma Shen in front of her.

There was silence in the ward, and Grandma Shen asked, "What do you want now?"

"Don't worry about what I think. I have to go to the hospital to get my foot healed. Ergou will stay to take care of me. We'll talk about everything after I get my foot healed and go home. You all go away and don't show up in front of me." After hearing what Shen Daya said, Grandma Shen nodded, was silent for a while, and then went to find Li Guihua. Her mind was a mess now, and she had to go home to think about it first.

After Shen Daya chased away Grandma Shen, she looked at the screen in front of her that only she could see and laughed. Just now, when she said that she was stolen back by them, a "ding dong" sounded in her ears, and she saw words appear above Grandma Shen and Li Guihua's heads, which read [Stolen Child Swap]

Shen Daya used her consciousness to click on the words above Grandma Shen's head, and a screen appeared, which described the process of Grandma Shen exchanging the child.

Shen Daya actually traveled through time. Her original name was Shen Feifei. This is a book she had read before traveling through time. The protagonist is the youngest daughter of Shen Laosan. It tells the story of how the heroine was reborn to change the fate of her family, go to college, and make a lot of money.

I was reborn as a cannon fodder in the book. I accidentally broke my foot when I was climbing a mountain. I didn't get timely treatment, so I became disabled and crippled. Later, my mother sold me to an old man in the next village in exchange for a dowry. I died of dystocia during childbirth. After my death, my biological parents came to find me. They thought it was an accident that the child was taken away by mistake. They looked at their daughter's grave, sighed, and left.

Shen Feifei traveled through time and space when Daya injured her foot and recovered from her fever. She didn't want to become a cripple, so based on the original owner's memory and the contents of the book, she took the money and went to the hospital to treat her foot first.

As for what to do next, she has thought it through. The original owner's biological parents should now be living in a military compound in the capital, and her father should be an official. She must go there and live a good life with them.

Just as she was thinking about it, Ergou came back. Shen Feifei looked at Ergou and heard him say, "Sister, what happened to the injury on our mother's hand?" "She didn't tell you?" Shen Feifei asked back.

"No," Ergou shook his head. "If he didn't say so, don't ask. Go to the supply and marketing cooperative and buy me a notebook and a pen," Shen Feifei said.

Ergou looked puzzled: "Sister, you can't write, what do you want these for?"

"Why can't I write?" Shen Feifei retorted.

Ergou said unconvincedly: "You have never been to school, how can you write!"

"I learned it secretly and didn't tell you. Okay, stop asking and go buy it for me." Shen Feifei stuffed the money into Ergou's pocket and waved her hand to tell him to go quickly.

Ergou came back and handed the notebook and pencil in his hand to Shen Feifei. After Shen Feifei got the things, she asked Ergou to go out to buy food, while she started writing in the house. She wanted to take advantage of the time when her foot was injured to secretly prepare and leave here.
