Chapter 423 Plastic Sisters
You can't blame her for that.
When she came to this world, she actually had very little contact with people who knew the original owner. Her marriage to Huo Chenzhou was not long, and the original owner had not spent much time with Huo Chenzhou at that time. Huo Chenzhou did not understand her at all.
As for the people she met in the family compound, the original owner had never interacted with them before.
Therefore, Shen Zhixia actually interacted with them based on her own personality.
She doesn't need to worry about being exposed.
After she came into this world, she lived a very free life. She didn't need to maintain any persona or worry about being exposed.
Little did she know that after she met a friend of the original owner of this body, she was almost exposed.
Seeing the doubt in Jiang Wu's eyes, Shen Zhixia felt inexplicably guilty, but she quickly coughed and said, "People change. I'm not the same as I was when I was young. After experiencing so much, I'm bound to change. It would be strange if I didn't."
She quickly looked over, her eyes resolute. After all, she was Shen Zhixia now, and this body belonged to Shen Zhixia, so she had nothing to be ashamed of.
The doubt in Jiang Wu's eyes vanished instantly. Her eyes dimmed, and she said with a bitter smile, "You're right. Who isn't changing? Things change, and even I have changed quite a bit."
She used to be proud, but who would have thought that one day she would become like this, without even having any choice.
She once hoped to find her Mr. Right. She always thought her husband would be handsome, talented, and a charming young master from a prestigious family. But little did she know that in the end, she wouldn't even have the right to marry.
The husband she found now...sigh...
She felt that this kind of man was not good enough for her, but she was completely helpless.
Seeing her so sad, Shen Zhixia didn't understand at all. Their thought processes were completely different. Shen Zhixia said, "Pork is really delicious, and lard is also delicious. They're all natural."
Jiang Wu lowered her head and remained silent.
These days, pork isn't easy to buy; not everyone can afford to eat it. Every pig is raised by farmers, hand in hand, fed with grain. The meat from each pig is incredibly fragrant, almost intoxicatingly so.
Pork won't taste as good in later generations. By then, pigs will be kept in pig farms and fed with feed. There will even be a lot of high-tech and grueling processes involved in raising them. It will be virtually impossible to find delicious pork in the future.
Therefore, everything Shen Zhixia said is true.
She has truly felt very happy since she came into this world.
The water is sweet, the meat is fragrant, and the vegetables are delicious.
Even the sky here is bluer than in later generations.
Jiang Wu was still very sad. She said, "Xia, I know the pain in your heart. You've had a hard time too. Even though you haven't said it, I know you're definitely not reconciled. You could have had a better life. If it weren't for the trouble in your family, you would have gotten a divorce long ago."
“Uncle, aunt, and your sister have all disappeared. Your family is so pitiful. If your uncle hadn’t gone to prison, he would never have been able to bear seeing you living like this. They would definitely have rescued you from this misery.”
As she spoke, tears welled up in Jiang Wu's eyes. It was unclear whether she was for Shen Zhixia or for herself. She said, "How many more years does your uncle have before he gets out? He will definitely help you after he gets out of prison."
Released from prison?
He shouldn't even think about getting out of prison. You have to know that Shen Zhixia went to great lengths to get him into prison. The crime the police convicted him of was very serious. He won't be able to get out anytime soon. By the time he gets out, Shen Zhixia will probably be old.
That's fine too.
She didn't want him to cause any trouble. If he came out now, wouldn't he retaliate against her?
Shen Zhixia said happily, "He won't be able to come out anytime soon. By the time he does, it will be a long time. The movement will have ended long ago, and China will have entered a new phase."
Jiang Wu's feelings were mixed. She seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, but still said, "That's really unfortunate."
She had a very difficult time during that period. After her family members had an accident, she was also implicated and had nowhere to turn. At her worst, she almost committed suicide, but thankfully she eventually pulled through.
But the price was that she had to marry a man she didn't like. She found it ironic. She always felt that, given her status, her current husband was unworthy of even carrying her shoes in the past.
But if she didn't marry him at this time, she wouldn't even be able to support herself.
No one would hire her.
She endured it all, though it was incredibly painful.
But when she saw Shen Zhixia, she suddenly felt that this pain wasn't so unbearable, because Shen Zhixia was just like her.
They are the same.
Her house collapsed, and Shen Zhixia's house collapsed too.
Her father is dead. Although Shen Zhixia's father is not dead, he is in prison now and probably won't get out. Even if he does get out, Shen Zhixia will be too old to help her.
In short, everything is already set in stone.
very nice.
She wasn't the only one who was unlucky on this road; there were others who were just as unlucky as her.
Look.
She used to be such a noble and elegant young lady, forever dignified, forever beautiful, forever aloof.
Shen Zhixia always tries to be superior to her in everything, but now she's ended up in the same situation, no different from her.
It could be even worse, after all, Shen Zhixia used to be so outstanding, she definitely can't accept such a drop in status.
Jiang Wu didn't know why, but she felt a secret excitement inside.
Shen Zhixia waved her hand dismissively and said, "There's nothing we can do about it. He deserves it. He broke the law, and I think the police did a good job. You don't need to feel sorry for him. Let him reform himself in prison. Anyway, this is the punishment he deserves."
Jiang Wu said, "Xia, you don't need to be stubborn."
She felt that Shen Zhixia was just faking it. After all, so many things had happened at home, she must have been very upset. How could she be so calm?
It must be her pride that's holding her back, which is why she refuses to show her vulnerable side.
Shen Zhixia did not answer the question. She simply said, "Jiang Wu, you need to look forward. You have a job now and you're married, so live your life well. Don't always dwell on the past or complain."
Jiang Wu retorted sarcastically, "But my husband is already fifty years old."
