Chapter 534: Encounter Danger 5

"No, they aren't here!" The woman shook her head, "My husband took them all back to my mother-in-law's house. It's not easy to care for children in the mountains, and it's inconvenient for them. Our third child didn't survive because this place is too remote, and we couldn't get medical assistance on time when he fell ill one night."

Seeing that the woman spoke about her child's death without showing any grief, Tong Yao frowned. She quickly asked, "Why don't you move down the mountain to take care of your children? Being pregnant and alone up here is far from ideal. Giving birth by yourself is very dangerous."

"But if I don't stay here, who would cook for them?" The woman replied matter-of-factly.

"Uhm…" Tong Yao was left speechless by her reply.

Hu Haiyun couldn't help being curious about the woman's experience of giving birth on her own, so he asked her, "Did you deliver your first baby on your own too?"
