But that day, the only old man who was kind to her was arrested, and she was rescued along with the other women in the village who were beaten beyond recognition.
All of them can return home and escape from the mountain village that bought them and used them as reproductive tools and slaves.
Those people were so happy that they cried and shouted for their return home.
But she couldn't be happy, she didn't want to go home at all.
Once she gets to that home, she will have to live the same life as before, treated like a pig or a dog, or even be sold again. She may not have the same luck next time.
So, she secretly followed the officers who rescued her into Nanshi. She lost them in the middle, but she still found them. She saw the tall and handsome man entering the family compound from a distance. She ran over and called him desperately, but he didn't hear her, so she waited outside the family compound for him to come out.
While squatting at the gate of the family compound, she saw many women coming in and out. They were dressed decently and their hair was combed very neatly. She could even smell their fragrance when they passed by her. Some of them even wore leather sandals that she had never seen before, and carried bags of a style she had never seen before.
This is the life a woman should live, and she also wants to live like this.
At that time she thought that she would stay no matter what.
She wants to marry a man here and live the same life as those women.
Among all the officers, the one she admired the most was Captain Qi. If she could marry him, she would be the envied wife of the captain.
As a child, she'd heard the village elders say, "When a man pursues a woman, it's like a mountain between them, but when a woman pursues a man, it's like a layer of gauze between them." And with her looks, it was only a matter of time before she won Captain Qi over. However, she'd also heard rumors about Captain Qi and the owner of this courtyard these past few days, saying that Captain Qi was incredibly affectionate toward Doctor Song. Anyone who saw him knew he was truly devoted to Doctor Song, and that they were a perfect match. But she hadn't heard of any official relationship between them.
Wang Yulan was imagining her life in the family compound after capturing Captain Qi. Suddenly, she heard noises outside the compound gate, as if someone was talking to someone else. She stood up, put down the mirror and comb, and walked to the compound gate to open it. She saw Sun Chahua from next door talking to a woman in military uniform carrying a big bag. There was a boy standing next to the woman, and the boy was looking at her with strange eyes, which made her feel uncomfortable.
Sun Chahua and Song Yun also looked at Wang Yulan who had opened the door. Sun Chahua nudged Song Yun with her elbow and whispered, "That's her."
Song Yun looked Wang Yulan over calmly and asked, "Are you Comrade Wang Yulan?"
Wang Yulan stared at the bright and beautiful face in front of her, trying hard not to let her jealousy show. She thought her face was the most beautiful in the family compound, and she thought so a minute ago, but now -
"I'm Wang Yulan, and you are?" Wang Yulan responded with a polite smile, trying to appear graceful and composed.
Sun Chahua rushed to say, "She is Doctor Song, the owner of this courtyard. Now that the owner has arrived, you should quickly pack up and move out."
Sun Chahua had disliked Wang Yulan for a long time. She was always pretending to be nice, and whenever she saw a man, she would glare at him. She saw it all. Sun Chahua not only wanted to seduce Captain Qi, but she also didn't let go of He Hongjun. Whenever He Hongjun came, she would come out of the yard, pretending to meet him by chance, acting like a pitiful person, saying something whether it was true or not, and flirting with him with her eyes.
Wang Yulan was shocked. She didn't expect that the beautiful woman in front of her would be Dr. Song, who was praised by everyone.
Facing such an opponent, what advantages does she have?
