Chapter 2 - 2: Fainted from Hunger

In front of her was neither the familiar two-story building nor a typical brick house.

Instead, it was a mud house whose walls had weathered countless years.

The mud house was covered with hay, some of which had turned black and caved in.

Jian Shuangshuang swore that even if you rolled back thirty years, there wouldn’t be such a house in the township she governed.

”Where is this...?”

Jian Shuangshuang swallowed hard; every time she spoke, she felt as if her throat was on fire, hurting terribly.

Little did she know, this was because the original owner hadn’t spoken for five years!

Bowing her head, Jian Shuangshuang looked at the person she had pinned down.

The woman’s complexion was sallow, and freckles dotted her cheeks like sunspots from years of working under the sun.

Her forehead was very prominent, cheekbones high, and thin lips betrayed a mean, acerbic nature.

But none of this was the most important; the most crucial point was her hairstyle.

The kind of bun only seen in ancient times, the sort worn by married women; Jian Shuangshuang shook her hand and looked down at her own hands...

In front of her was a pair of hands thinner than bamboo sticks, gnarled like chicken feet, grasping the woman beneath her.

These hands were filthy; from wrist to palm, all black, without a patch of white.

Especially the fingernail crevices, where greasy black grime amassed, reeking with a sour stench emanating from her body.

It was indeed worse than those socks of men at the station who hadn’t been washed for months; she realized, it was her, or rather this body’s stench.

Had she... time traveled?

”Murder! Murder!... Mu Shuangshuang’s murdering someone...”

The person beneath her started shrieking like a pig being slaughtered; Mrs. Lin was weak all over, her legs twitching uncontrollably.

Jian Shuangshuang was no better off; having exerted merely a hint of strength, she didn’t even have enough to rise. This body... was unbelievably weak!

Struggling up, Jian Shuangshuang kicked the person on the ground again, prompting more screams from Mrs. Lin.

Jian Shuangshuang’s head hurt, as did her abdomen, especially her stomach; she had no idea how long it had been since this body last ate, causing her to see stars.

Nevertheless, Jian Shuangshuang forced herself to stay alert, and surveyed the mud houses. The solitary one on the far right looked like a kitchen.

The wall-exposed windows were blackish, clearly from smoke and grease.

Jian Shuangshuang headed into the kitchen, searched through it entirely, but found nothing to fill her stomach.

Grabbing the teapot from the table, she filled her stomach with water, finally gaining some strength.

She picked up the scissors on the table, and returned to the woman who had trampled her before.

”Where’s the nearest stream?”

This body was too dirty, not just the body but even the hair; Jian Shuangshuang didn’t even have the courage to take a peek.

The hair hung on either side, already matted, glistening with a shiny film under the sun.

More disgusting than the loofah sponge she had seen on the stove earlier.

No matter what, cleaning up first was imperative.

Hungry can be fed, injuries can be healed, but if she continued bearing this filth, she’d surely stink herself to death.

”Where’s the nearest stream, somewhere less crowded.”

Jian Shuangshuang added another sentence, not waiting for Mrs. Lin to speak, brought the scissors close to Mrs. Lin’s face.

The sharp tip was barely half an inch from Mrs. Lin’s eye, startling her into answering.

”Village... village... north...”

Jian Shuangshuang nodded in satisfaction; she liked obedient ”suspects,” but stepping on her chest remained unforgivable.

She took a big step forward, her foot landed squarely on the leg she had struck, then twisted her leg...

Another round of pig-like wailing followed; clutching her leg, Mrs. Lin teared from the pain.

Clearly, once someone touches the nerve, one’s strength vanishes completely.

”Mu Shuangshuang, you wretched thing, you damn wench... you... I’ll remember you; if you’ve got the guts, don’t ever come back!

... Come back and I’ll skin you alive... Ohhh, it hurts so bad...”

Jian Shuangshuang ignored the shrieking behind her; once she exited the courtyard, and reached the road, she found herself too exhausted to breathe.

Her stomach churned, all the water she drank turned into weapons torturing her.

”Yikes, isn’t that Old Mu Family’s third daughter’s eldest, how come she’s out again?”
