Chapter 2 Chapter 2...
Chapter Two
Fang Anhui, now known as Yao Anhui, was in a hurry to leave Fangjia Village for two reasons. First, it was the place where the original owner of this body had lived for eighteen years, and she was worried that others would notice the difference between her and the original owner if she stayed. Second, the original owner of this body had been targeted by a shameless scoundrel in the town. Otherwise, the original owner of this body would not have died so suddenly, and it was her turn to take over this body after being resurrected.
The person targeting her was a shameless scoundrel named Wu Xingye, who rose to power by reporting his own father-in-law, causing his family to be ruined and his wife to die in childbirth. No one knew where he had seen the original owner of this body before, but he actually sent someone to propose marriage, implying that if the original owner of this body did not agree, he would use the original owner of this body's father as leverage.
The original owner's father, Yao Ruifeng, was a retired soldier. Several years ago, when he was on his way home, he encountered an old wooden bridge that had collapsed. Dozens of pedestrians fell into the water. Yao Ruifeng was unable to get back up because he was exhausted after rescuing many people.
The last person Yao Ruifeng rescued was a girl. She was probably too scared and struggled desperately. If Yao Ruifeng hadn't risked his life to get her ashore, the two of them might have perished together.
It was precisely because saving this girl consumed too much of Yao Ruifeng's energy that Fang Ruifeng's eventual death was somewhat related to her.
However, Wu Xingye used the girl's desperate struggle in the river as a pretext, saying that if Yao Anhui did not agree to marry him, the girl would change her story and say that Yao Ruifeng had molested her. She claimed that she fell into the water to escape Yao Ruifeng's clutches, that Yao Ruifeng deserved to die, and even threatened to revoke Yao Ruifeng's status as a martyr. He went on to make his claims as serious as possible.
Wu Xingye, a mere director of the Revolutionary Committee, lacked the power to handle such matters. He was merely using these words to intimidate the original owner of this body, but she was unaware of this. Perhaps she wouldn't have believed it before, but in this era, even once-respected teachers were being labeled as "stinking intellectuals," sent to the countryside, and subjected to criticism and struggle sessions. The original owner was terrified.
Some people who were very powerful to her, such as school teachers and leaders, were dragged to the streets to be criticized and struggled against every day. Even in their rural village, some people who were said to be former high-ranking leaders from Beijing were imprisoned in cowsheds. It was done by those people from the Revolutionary Committee. This made the original owner of the body think that the other party was capable of doing those things.
The original owner herself didn't care, but she couldn't bear the thought that her father, who was a great hero in her heart, would be falsely accused by Wu Xingye. The original owner, who was already in poor health, fell ill in fear and died. Fang Anhui took her place.
Fang An Hui's letter was also difficult to write because her handwriting was different from the original owner's, and she used to write in traditional characters, not the simplified characters that were missing parts. In the end, Fang An Hui wasted several sheets of paper and got tired of writing, so she deliberately wrote it messily, making sure that people could see how flustered and scared the writer was when writing the letter. To make it realistic, Fang An Hui even recalled the original owner's fearful feelings at the time.
The two letters, sent two days apart, were sure to attract the recipient's attention. She was a frail eighteen-year-old girl with poor health, and of course she would complain to someone about such a big thing. Even if she couldn't kill Wu Xingye, she would still collect some interest first. Just wait, she would make him pay back sooner or later.
The person communicating with Yao Anhui was named Guan Kangde, a former comrade-in-arms of Yao's father, Yao Ruifeng. He is now a division commander in a military region. It is said that he was wounded on the battlefield and would have died long ago if Yao Ruifeng hadn't risked his life to carry him out, let alone achieved his current success.
Guan Kangde had often discussed marriage between their children in their correspondence with Yao Ruifeng, but Yao Ruifeng was rational. He had been injured and retired early in his life, and Guan Kangde was now in a high position of power. The difference between them was too great, so marriage would not bring any benefits, and he refused.
Besides, Yao Ruifeng had only one daughter, Yao Anhui, after many years of marriage, and he was reluctant to let her marry far away. Moreover, the age difference between her and Guan Kangde's son was too great, so the matter was left unresolved.
After Yao's mother passed away last year, Guan Kangde was worried that Yao Anhui would be alone in her hometown without anyone to take care of her. In the current situation, beauty is not a good thing. Wasn't it because of her beauty that Yao Anhui lost her life?
The letter that the original owner sent out yesterday rejected Guan Kangde's suggestion to introduce her to a potential partner.
The reason is simple: after all, the original owner was a real eighteen-year-old girl, so it's perfectly normal for her to be afraid of going to the north, thousands of miles away, alone.
Of course, things are different now that Yao Anhui is in charge. After all, Yao Anhui has been in the harem for decades and is full of cunning and scheming. You could say that Yao Anhui is a shrewd person who can read people's expressions and knows the art of speaking. Therefore, Yao Anhui is particularly confident that Guan Kangde will not fail to understand the meaning she is conveying.
In her letter, Yao Anhui did not directly say that she agreed to Guan Kangde introducing her to a potential partner. Instead, she asked Guan Kangde for help like a junior. As for men, no matter what kind of men they are, good or bad, it is never wrong to take care of their self-esteem.
Of course, Yao Anhui didn't put all her hopes on Guan Kangde; she wouldn't put all her eggs in one basket.
Besides writing to Guan Kangde, Yao Anhui made many other preparations.
Speaking of this preparation, we have to mention one of Yao Anhui's treasures.
If Yao Anhui was able to survive well in the cannibalistic harem in her previous life, bearing the title of a favored concubine and navigating the machinations of various factions, it wasn't solely due to her cunning and resourcefulness. Her special abilities also played a significant role in her success.
Yao Anhui's "golden finger" wasn't the kind that was so powerful it could decide someone's life or death; otherwise, she wouldn't have died without even knowing why.
Yao Anhui has a special ability, similar to the power of words, but it's not as sophisticated or pleasant to hear, because it only works for bad things, which is commonly known as being a jinx.
Yao Anhui's so-called "numerous preparations" were truly numerous. It was a daily curse: Wu Xingye would bite his tongue while eating, trip and fall while walking, and if he didn't do his job well, his nemesis would constantly find fault with him. Even birds flying overhead would leave a souvenir... He was constantly stepping on gold...
Why did Yao Anhui curse so many people? It's because Yao Anhui's power of words wasn't very strong; it could only cause trouble for the other party, not kill them. That's why Yao Anhui kept cursing him, trying to increase the quantity to cause a qualitative change.
However, Yao Anhui still knows that her ability to jinx someone has become stronger after arriving here, to the point that she completely needs other people's help. Wu Xingye was almost killed by her.
So by the time Yao Anhui realized her ability to jinx someone had become stronger, it was too late. The people Guan Kangde sent to pick her up, along with her blind date, were already standing in front of her.
And there's more than one!
