Goldfield
Chapter 3: The Mysterious Rainbow Stone

Yu Xiaocao, who was lying on the bed, looked at Madam Liu affectionately. He's not how he feels now. Although this mother seemed weak and unreliable, she finally had a mother to love her again after fourteen years.

Yu Hang stroked Xiaocao's hair as he spoke to his mother, "Mother, the youngest sister is weak and often sick since she was born. This time, he even suffered severe injuries... Grandpa You had us give him more nutritious food to help him recover."

A momentary silence filled the entire room. Madam Liu thought of her stingy mother-in-law and walked out of the room with a sad expression on her face. After her mother came out, Shitou approached and stroked her sister's face with her cold hands. He whispered into her ear in a soft voice. "Sister, rest well and heal quickly. Tomorrow, I'll bring you some eggs to eat..."

Yu Xiaocao processed his emotions, then smiled at the little boy. He chatted for a while with the cute boy before he felt exhausted. Just before she fell into a deep sleep, she heard Lady Liu timidly say, "Mother, the doctor said that Cao'er is weak and in need of nourishing food. He only drank a few mouthfuls of porridge in the morning, so I wanted to make some egg soup for him."

"Eat eat eat! Not even a wealthy family will be able to withstand the suffering caused by all of you, the patients. Calling a doctor and getting medicine, which one does not need money?! We still have to sell the eggs to the market when they open later. There's still white rice in the jar, so take a little to make a bowl of porridge..."

Yu Xiaocao's body was initially weak and he had just suffered from a great loss of blood. Thus she finally could not help feeling to sleep and her end fell into deep sleep.

He slept for a long time this time. He did not wake up even when they gave him porridge and medicine. He felt as if he had unwittingly fallen into the darkness. No matter how hard he struggled, he was unable to escape from the endless despair.

After an unknown time, when he was about to give up and accept his destiny, as bright as light shone in the darkness. A frustrating yet sweet sound appeared in his mind....:

{Sial!!! How do I accidentally pledge my allegiance to a weak human being? What am I supposed to do? What am I supposed to do now? Should I. I should ignore it. If he dies, then the relationship of master and servant will be void. I don't know when I can get out again!]

The Spirit God cursed it. Most of the spiritual power was partially sealed in this mighty holy stone, then left behind in the human realm by random means. he had waited exactly eight hundred years before being taken by a woman. However, he had died before he could be acknowledged by his master...

He had used all his remaining spiritual power to bring the woman's jiawa into another realm and found a body suitable for her revived. If it did not save him with all his strength, then he might really have to wait another eight hundred years to wake up.

Ay's... It is better to be a little weak than to stay in the endless darkness. However, the wound on his head... It seemed like he needed to use a bit of lingering spiritual power to heal him.

While Yu Xiaocao was amazed by that talkative glowing orb, he suddenly felt a cool feeling and healed the wound on his forehead. The pain sensation also disappeared. As the darkness around him slowly faded away, he slowly opened his thick eyelids.

A dim light flashed in the room. He could vaguely see the skinny Madam Liu lying on the edge of the bed. The breath of the bus heard clearly in silence.

Yu Xiaocao recalled the strange dream he had just experienced. He raised his arm and touched his forehead. It really doesn't hurt anymore. Isn't that a dream? Did that glowing golden ball, which called itself the 'Divine Rock', really exist? Does it also heal the wounds on his head?

Yo Xiaocao felt extremely hot and stuffy as she was tightly covered by the blanket. He took out his arm from the blanket and looked at the red rope bracelet on his skinny wrist. There was a colorful war-stone woven on the red rope. Wasn't this the little rock he picked up in the mountain river near the Potala palace, it had only when he went on vacation?

"Cao'er, you're awake! You've been sleeping right for three days. If you still don't wake up, I'll take you to town to see a doctor." Madam Liu, who was also lying on the bed, noticed the movement and raised her head. She cried happily as she looked up and saw her daughter.

Yu Xiaocao looked at Madam Liu sharply. His first impression of his mother was that he was skinny. Although she had a beautiful and gentle face, it looked thin and pale and her hands were repairing her blankets, filled with ships and rough scars. With one glance at his hand, it was clear that he was constantly doing menial work.

"Mother..." Although Madam Liu was not much older than him in his previous life, he was touched by the maternal love in his eyes, he could not help but still call out to her. No one had looked at her with a loving gaze since her mother died when she was fourteen. Yu Xiaocao suddenly felt like crying.

"Don't cry. Cao. Is your wound still sick? I'll blow it for you..." Liu Muyun gently blew on her bandaged daughter's head, then she quickly turned around and wiped her tears with her sleeves.

While looking at the twins, she accidentally fell into the water while washing clothes and giving birth prematurely. Although Xiaolin was a little thin, he grew up with a healthy body, and yet it was a different situation for Xiaocao. He could not even drink milk at first. In addition, he often fell ill. There were even a few times he was barely saved.

Her child needs to take medication all year round, but their family has not separated. All the money her husband earned from fishing and hunting had to be handed over to his mother-in-law. Whenever she asked her mother-in-law for money to buy medicine, she was always reluctant to give it and would always say unpleasant words. Her eldest brother-in-law would also make mocking comments beside her

He could bear anything for his son. However, he never expected that his daughter was about to die at the hands of her eldest sister-in-law. The doctor had clearly instructed them to feed Xiaocao more nutrients, but her mother-in-law was not even willing to feed them eggs.

Liu Muyun's face was full of helplessness as she looked at the dark night sky outside the window. She had been married to the Yu family for thirteen years. Every day, he should be the first person to wake up and last to sleep. She was always exhausted because she was responsible for almost all household chores.

She was not afraid of being tired, but her mother-in-law was never satisfied with her no matter what she did. He often had to suffer because of his demanding gaze and mocking comments. Even his children were treated badly.

There was no one in the family he could rely on. Xiaocao was injured because of Eldest brother-in-law and was unconscious for three days, but the eldest brother's family did not even show up at all. Her brother-in-law and father-in-law were the only ones who came to check on Xiaocao...

"Cao'er, are you hungry? Your youngest aunt gave us eggs. I keep it warm with hot water." Liu Muyun peeling eggshells for her daughter. She had a satisfied smile on her face as she watched her daughter slowly eat the egg.

She continued, "My daughter is good, you should rest more. I'm going to go prepare dinner. Your favorite porridge will be ready when you wake up. I will definitely make it thick and add some pickled vegetables in it. I'll bring that big bowl for our Cao'er to eat!"

Yu Xiaocao remembered what he had heard before he fell asleep. Her mother was treated after she asked for eggs from the grandmother of this body. It seems his family rarely gets a chance to eat refined grains like white rice and wheat flour.

For this bowl of porridge, Madam Liu might have to endure the pain in her heart with the person who ridiculed her viciously. "Mother, I'll eat whatever other people eat. Don't prepare separately something just for me. Didn't I eat eggs today?"
