However, their good fortune did not last long. As the movement ended, their house and property were confiscated.
Later, due to her father-in-law's corruption and dereliction of duty, the whole family was taken away for investigation.
The investigation lasted for more than a year, and the final result was that the father-in-law and mother-in-law were shot and the husband was sentenced to twenty years in prison.
Because she was not involved in any of these events, she was released after three years of labor reform at the farm.
But she had no job, no savings, and no house, so she had no choice but to swallow her pride and take her three children back to her parents' home.
Her parents didn't say anything, but her sister-in-law was a real jerk, constantly bullying her and her son.
This is clearly her home. If her brother can live here, why can't she?
Su Wanwan could no longer tolerate it and started fighting with her.
As a result, he accidentally scratched his sister-in-law's face.
Because of this incident, her younger brother became estranged from her, and she could no longer stay at her parents' home.
With no other option, Su Wanwan remarried, bringing her child with her. Her new husband was more than ten years older than her and had just lost his wife two years prior.
She thought she had found a safe haven, but little did she know that she had jumped from one fire pit to another.
Less than six months into their marriage, the man physically assaulted her five times.
The worst time, he broke three of my ribs.
She wanted a divorce, but she couldn't because she was pregnant again.
Su Wanwan endured this living hell for over a decade.
She had already resigned herself to her fate, but unexpectedly, she met that man again by chance!
He was over fifty years old at the time, but time seemed to have left no trace on his face; he still looked as handsome and dashing as ever.
When Su Wanwan heard from her older sister that he was now the Air Force Commander and had never married, she was filled with remorse.
She often wondered if things would have turned out differently if she had been braver back then.
Perhaps God heard her confession, for Su Wanwan woke up to find herself reborn.
She was not married yet, and there was still time for everything!
Having lived two lives, Su Wanwan certainly knew that breaking up someone else's marriage was a very immoral thing to do.
But she had suffered enough in her previous life, and now that she's been given a second chance, she'd rather die than let this opportunity slip by.
Moreover, this marriage was something Jiang Si herself didn't want.
Then you can't blame yourself.
Although she had already made up her mind, Su Wanwan knew how difficult it would be to open that person's heart, so she didn't plan to make a move now.
All she can do now is wait, wait for Jiang Si to break off the engagement with him, and wait for her to die in the countryside.
Once Jiang Si is dead, she has plenty of ways to take down Huo Tingzhou!
As for the girl she had just seen, Su Wanwan thought about it carefully and concluded that it was probably just a case of people looking alike.
After all, Jiang Si would have already arrived in Heilongjiang Province by this time.
Besides, when has the eldest daughter of the Jiang family ever worn such old-fashioned clothes?
As for taking the bus, that's even more impossible, because she simply can't endure that hardship!
Su Wanwan was absolutely right about that; Jiang Si really couldn't endure much hardship.
Before boarding the ship that afternoon, she specifically sought out a first-class passenger and paid extra to exchange their tickets.
Of course, it's true that she didn't want to suffer, but on the other hand, the main reason was that she suddenly got her period at noon.
There are no private toilets in the second-class cabins; if you want to change to something else, you have to go to the ship's public toilets.
Jiang Si had developed a psychological aversion to the toilets on trains, so she was still willing to pay a little money to solve the problem.
Moreover, the first-class cabin is quiet and peaceful, and you can see the vast blue sea as soon as you open the window. It's definitely worth the money.
Jiang Si gets seasick. She can look at the sea view for a while, but she gets dizzy if she looks at it for too long.
At 3:00 p.m., with a long whistle, the No. 3 Hongwei ship slowly sailed out of the Taikoo Wharf in Guangzhou.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the sea.
With the roar of their engines, six Tu-4 strategic bombers smoothly taxied to the end of the airport runway.
A moment later, the cockpit door opened inward, and several pilots dressed in Type 65 summer flight suits strode out of the cockpit.
The leader had broad shoulders and a narrow waist, with an upright posture. However, his eyes were cold and his features were sharp and distinct, giving him an aura that kept strangers at bay.
"Old Huo, wait for me a moment."
Xiao Zhengjun, the commander of the Second Flying Regiment, stepped forward in two quick steps. They were good brothers for many years, so he spoke directly.
"Well, there's something I'd like to ask you for a favor."
"What's the matter that's causing such a rush?"
"Hey, it's my wife's birthday coming up soon, and she's been wanting a red wool coat for a while now."
“I’ve been to the provincial capital several times, but I still haven’t found the kind she was talking about.”
"I was thinking that my sister-in-law lives in Shanghai, so could I ask her for a favor?"
"See if any of the department stores in Shanghai have a thin wool coat, red one will do."
Although the two are not officially married yet, there is a consensus in this era that dating without the intention of marriage is just playing around!
Besides, the two of them had already gotten engaged years ago.
So in private, they all referred to Jiang Si as their younger brother's sister-in-law or sister-in-law.
Xiao Zhengjun smiled and said, "My sister-in-law has a good eye. The clothes she picks are definitely better than the ones I, a roughneck, would choose. I just don't know if it's convenient for her?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Tingzhou paused for a moment, but the thought of calling her ultimately prevailed.
"Let me ask first. If there are no suitable ones in Shanghai, I'll ask someone to help you look at the Beijing Department Store."
