I Transmigrated Into a Novel and Became the Vicious Stepmother of Five Cute Babies

The Hunt

“Oh, oh. I didn’t help you for free. It’s no trouble at all.”

Aunt Liu was too shocked and only responded subconsciously. Then, she saw Mo Ruyue reach the door, shouting outside, “Come over here. Let Grandma Liu take your measurements.”

A series of footsteps suddenly sounded, and a few children ran to the door and swarmed in, immediately surrounding Aunt Liu.

“Grandma Liu, you’ve worked hard.”

“Thank you, Grandma Liu!”

“I’ll get you some water. ”

“I’ll give you a massage!”

The four little ones were so sweet-tongued and hardworking that Aunt Liu was thrilled, and she couldn’t help but want to hug them all and cherish them.

The five children of the Qin family were all beautiful, but Mo Ruyue had abused them until they were yellow and thin. Each looked like bean sprouts, making people’s hearts ache.

Aunt Liu came closer to take a look. The little faces of the babies seemed to be a little chubbier. These days, there was always a burst of meat fragrance from the Qin family, which was very tempting. She thought that it was Mo Ruyue who was eating until her mouth was full of oil. Could it be that these babies were also basking in the light?

If that was the case, she seemed to have changed.

Unlike the other babies, Da Bao did not stay by Aunt Liu’s side. However, when the other babies were talking, he had already poured a bowl of water and placed it on the table. He quietly pushed it to San Bao.

San Bao turned his head and saw the bowl of water on the table. He immediately picked it up and presented it to Aunt Liu like he was presenting a treasure. “Grandma Liu, drink some water. It’s clean!”

Mo Ruyue saw this scene and couldn’t help but take a few more glances at Da Bao.

This kid was really good to his younger brothers and sister. Not only did he protect them with all his heart, he even gave the benefits of showing his face to the younger one. He was indeed a good brother that was worthy of trust.

Aunt Liu couldn’t stand the babies’ enthusiasm. After drinking a mouthful of water, she said to Mo Ruyue, “I came back in a hurry, and I didn’t know you were looking for me to make clothes. I didn’t bring the measuring tape and the like. Why don’t you wait for a while? I’ll go back and get it.”

“Let Da Bao make the trip. He’s fast.”

Mo Ruyue gave Da Bao another look. He didn’t say a word and immediately went out.

Although he was ordered around by Mo Ruyue, Da Bao did not have any complaints. As long as his younger brothers and sisters could get benefits, he was willing to break his legs from running around.

When Aunt Liu was measuring the babies’ sizes, the babies standing next to her started to give in to each other again modestly. No one was willing to be the first to take the measurements. In the end, it was Mo Ruyue who gave the order to do it in order from small to big. Only then could the first step of the tailoring process be carried out smoothly.

She carefully noted down all the measurements and then said to Mo Ruyue, “How do you want to make these clothes? Do you want me to make them and give them to you together?”

“No, Aunt Liu, I thought that you should make a fitting one for each child first. Their clothes are too tattered now, and they don’t even have a replacement. It’s really not right.”

“I’ll make a replacement later. I’ll just take my time to make the rest. As for the summer clothes, just make them before summer. We have a large family, so it’s really tiring for you to make these clothes.”

Mo Ruyue said politely. She had considered everything, and Aunt Liu nodded as she listened.

She was indeed different. Not only was she like this for her own babies, but she was also more considerate towards others. It was an incredible change.

“That’s fine. Actually, children’s clothes are easier to make than adults. If I have enough time, I can make them in half a month.”

Aunt Liu didn’t take advantage of Mo Ruyue just because she gave her time. Instead, she gave Mo Ruyue an estimated time limit, which was within Mo Ruyue’s expectations.

“Alright, you’re very experienced, so I naturally believe you. We’ll do it at your pace.”

“By the way, I remember you said that you needed my help with two things. Making clothes is one of them. What’s the other?”

Aunt Liu asked Mo Ruyue as she kept the measurements she had recorded.

“Oh, right. I’ll have to discuss this with you.” Mo Ruyue sat up straight and said seriously.

When Aunt Liu saw her appearance, she also became nervous. She didn’t know what important matter she had to ask for her help with.

“Aunt Liu, as you know, our land has not been cultivated for a long time. Although Qin Ming is no longer here, the few acres of land, he earned still belongs to the Qin family.”

“I’m thinking of planting those few acres of land again. At least we can harvest some grain in autumn. If we can grow some vegetables or something during the normal days, it will be worthy of the land that Qin Ming worked so hard to earn.”

Mo Ruyue’s voice had just fallen when he saw Aunt Liu’s surprised expression again.

“But those few acres of land are all in your mother-in-law’s hands. Even if you plow them and plant something, they still belong to her. It has nothing to do with you.”

“When your mother-in-law chased you out, she only gave you this broken house. This... Don’t tell me you’ve forgotten?”

“There’s such a thing?” Mo Ruyue’s brows furrowed, and her expression turned cold.

The last thing she wanted to do now was to have any relationship with the Qin family’s mother-in-law and daughter-in-law pair. In order to get those few acres of land, she was bound to have to argue and quarrel, which was really annoying.

“Then forget it. I was originally planning to...” Mo Ruyue stopped mid-sentence. Since she didn’t plan to get the land, then there was no need to mention the previous plan.

After sending Aunt Liu off, Mo Ruyue walked out of her courtyard and looked around the house.

The open space around the house could be used, but it could only be used to grow some vegetables. It was impossible to grow a large number of crops for the time being.

Mo Ruyue wasn’t discouraged by this. There were thousands of ways to make money, and if one didn’t work, she could always use another.

She still followed her plan and led the babies to search the front and back of the house, and at the same time, she scattered the vegetable seeds.

In the following days, Mo Ruyue still went to the mountains to hunt from time to time. Of course, she only hunted small wild animals, such as rabbits and pheasants. There was also one time when she was extremely lucky. A wild goat accidentally fell into a well-dug trap and broke one of its legs. That night, it became the babies’ meal.

Mo Ruyue also made medicinal cuisines from time to time to nourish herself and her babies. It had only been half a month, but it was already very effective. Seeing that the children’s faces had become rounder and their complexions were getting better day by day, she suddenly felt a stronger sense of accomplishment than every time she had successfully completed a task.

In this period of time, Mo Ruyue had not only been nourishing herself with food, but she had also been training her body. She could clearly feel that this body’s constitution had improved greatly.

It was time to consider going further into the mountains to hunt for some large prey.

However, before that, she still decided to take the prey she had caught to the city to sell again and also sell some of the herbs she had picked during this time. There was no income for her family during this time, and she could not just sit around and eat.

This time, she brought Da Bao along as usual. The two of them each carried two baskets, one filled with herbs and the other with meat. They set off for the city together.
