Chapter 1: My Father Is Chen Shimei?

It's out, it's out, it's a big fat baby!

A voice tinged with surprise rang out, waking Wang Ping'an from his deep sleep; he instinctively opened his eyes and saw a face full of wrinkles, startling him, suspecting he might be having a nightmare.

He was so frightened he burst out cursing! Just that.

For some unknown reason, his cursing turned into loud wailing.

"Madam Wang, look, how loud the young master's crying is!"

The midwife laughed and said.

"Aunt Liu, I'm just a rural village woman; what lady am I?"

Lying in bed, weak all over, her face deathly pale with no trace of blood, Liu Dongzhu looked at the baby in the midwife's arms, her face full of satisfaction, murmuring: "Older brother Wang, I've given the Wang family a boy!"

More precisely, he had turned into a baby!

Aunt Liu offered a few flattering remarks, and seeing Liu Dongzhu's worries gradually fade, she then guessed: "Maybe the young master is hungry!"

Liu Dongzhu didn't speak, but instead lifted her head and glanced at Aunt Liu.

"Capital City, third-place finisher?"

No matter how Wang Ping'an cursed, all that came out of his mouth were loud wails, his voice exceptionally loud.

"Old Madam Wang, your family's Ruhai is none other than the Literary star incarnate; when I delivered him years ago, I knew he was extraordinary—he even placed third in the imperial exams!"

Not to mention the grandmother, even the nursing Wang Ping'an was scared half to death upon hearing this—just born, his own mother was fighting for her life; could it be that his father, the third-place finisher, had lost his life?

Wang Ping'an never expected that, when his mother just opened the letter his father had sent back, her face, which had been full of smiles, suddenly turned grim.

The old woman was none other than Liu Dongzhu's mother-in-law! Aunt Liu naturally understood the old woman's meaning, smiling: "Old Madam Wang, your family's Dongzhu has given your old Wang family a big fat boy!"

Liu Dongzhu wailed loudly: "Mother, from now on please take care of the child with Father!"

Who would have thought his not-yet-appearing father would be so capable.

Afterwards, the grandmother handed over the letter that Wang Ruhai had sent from the Capital City, eagerly saying: "Dongzhu, look what Ruhai wrote in the letter, and when will he return?"

However.

Liu Dongzhu jumped in fright, saying: "Aunt Liu, what's going on?"

"What do you mean?"

Aunt Liu's eyes lit up at once; after declining a few times, she then took it.

He actually managed to place third in the imperial exams!

Level: lv0 Energy: 5/100 Talent: none

An old saying goes: "A son travels a thousand miles, the mother worries a thousand." The Capital City is more than a thousand li away—this is why Wang Ruhai, having placed third, could send a letter all that way.

!.

Just as Wang Ping'an wondered whether he was experiencing auditory hallucinations, a light curtain appeared before his eyes again.

"Damn, I didn't just transmigrate into a baby, I also have a system?"

As his grandmother entered, Wang Ping'an sucked hard on his milk while listening to the chatter, trying to understand the world he now inhabited; upon hearing that, he almost couldn't hold back and burst into shouting.

"Good, good, good… Our old Wang family line has finally produced an heir!"

Aunt Liu, accustomed to reading expressions, was about to leave after finding an excuse, but having taken only a few steps, she seemed to recall something, turned to look at Liu Dongzhu, and said: "Dongzhu, I almost forgot to warn you about some taboos…"

His mother wanted to follow him in death? 'Bang!' The grandmother jumped in fright, nearly falling over; she had been worrying whether Wang Ruhai had met with an accident, never expecting Liu Dongzhu to say such a thing.

"Good thing, good thing, the louder your young master cries, the healthier he is and the brighter his future—I've delivered so many babies over the years and have never heard a cry louder than that of your young master!"

Seeing this, Wang Ping'an didn't know whether to feel sad or happy, merely sucking his milk much faster.

Aunt Liu sighed a few times, her face full of envy, saying: "This time when he returns, he might very well bring the whole family to the Capital City to enjoy blessings!"

At this moment.

The next moment, the tightly closed door was pushed open, and an old man strode in from outside—none other than Wang Ping'an's grandfather, Wang Lin, who exclaimed in surprise: "Dongzhu, what happened? You've given our old Wang family a big fat boy—how could you think of giving up?"

Liu Dongzhu.

Even if he didn't understand history, he still knew what placing third meant; seeing his mother and grandmother in simple clothes, he worried whether they'd have to struggle for food and drink in the future.

For a moment, losing her composure, the grandmother shouted: "Old man, old man, something's wrong—Dongzhu is thinking of giving up, hurry in!"

Who let him know the principle of "since you're here, make the best of it"!

The grandmother also noticed the abnormality, saying: "Dongzhu, what's wrong—could Ruhai have run into trouble?"

A voice slightly tinged with alarm rang out; an old woman entered from outside, pushing the door in, first closing it, then walking over briskly, but her gaze fell entirely on Wang Ping'an sucking his milk.

For a moment, Wang Ping'an felt especially lost; perhaps from now on he would lose the two most important things in life: inferiority and poverty!

After a long while, Aunt Liu explained in detail what could and could not be done during the postpartum period; even though the grandmother had been told before, she never spoke much, as the saying goes: "Careful brings no mistake."

When she said that, the grandmother's face was also full of worry.

"Father, Ruhai, Ruhai sent me a divorce letter from the Capital City!"

Just as Aunt Liu stepped out of the bedroom and closed the door, the grandmother saw Liu Dongzhu's tears pouring like a breached dam, jumped in fright, and hastily said: "Dongzhu, what's wrong—could Ruhai have met with an accident?"

"Damn, damn, damn……"

The cursing Wang Ping'an saw the granary brought to his mouth, for some reason felt a bit hungry, and instinctively began to suck; just then, a mechanical, cold voice echoed in his mind.

"Dongzhu, Dongzhu, good news—Ruhai sent you a letter from the Capital City!"

Wang Ping'an also noticed his own abnormality; his big eyes rolled, and he realized his whole body had obviously shrunk countless times.

"Ding! Energy +1!"

The grandmother laughed heartily, as if relieved of a burden, took out one tael of silver from her waist and handed it over.

"Old Madam Wang, Madam Wang, I suddenly remembered I have business at home, I'll be leaving now!"

Not correct.

"Aunt Liu, take this child!"

Skill: none……

Host of the Human Infant Growth System: not yet named

Liu Dongzhu trembled as she handed over the letter in her hand, wailing loudly: "Mom and Dad, where exactly did I go wrong? Why does Ruhai want to divorce me? I might as well be dead."

"Dongzhu, could it be a mistake?"

Grandfather and grandmother exclaimed in surprise

Wang Ping'an was also startled, exclaimed in astonishment: "Holy shit, could my father be Chen Shimei?"
