Chapter 039 Chapter 39 Rebirth

Zhang Xiaohui thought about her past life.

She lived two lives, but unfortunately her past life was not very good.

In her previous life, she felt that rural life was hard, so she married her husband from her previous life for a temporary job in the city.

Unfortunately, the man was a worthless person who beat and scolded her. She spent her whole life in a daze, and in her nineties, she finally outlasted the man. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, she was back to the time before she got married.

She is a favored child of God, who can live again with her memories.

It was just that she came back a little late and didn't have time to start studying again. However, she also gained a lot of benefits with the memory of her previous life. Some time ago, she even got a temporary job with the help of a nobleman, and it will soon be converted to a permanent position.

However, this life is very different from her previous life.

For example, Zhang Yuandong’s wife and children should not have survived that winter, but now they are not only alive, but are living well.

However, many people should have starved to death in the past few years, but now they are all alive and well, so Lin Yue and her mother and son do not stand out so much.

She thinks that the strange phenomena in the village come from the "good luck" brought by her rebirth. After all, only Oda Village has so many strange things happened, and other places are almost the same as the original trajectory.

But Zhang Yuandong's return this time made her begin to doubt.

In his previous life, Zhang Yuandong also returned to the village after a flood. At that time, he was missing an arm and his face was disfigured. He returned with injuries all over his body. It is said that he completed a very dangerous mission and was awarded the first-class merit. At that time, it caused a sensation in the entire county. Many leaders came to express their condolences. Zhang Yuandong also became the director of the county public security bureau.

Unfortunately, within half a year, he was killed by his enemies, and it was said that his death was quite tragic.

After Zhang Yuandong's death, his parents, brothers and sisters were treated well. Not only did they receive a lot of pensions, but they also arranged for several of their children to attend schools in the county.

After Zhang Zhiwei died, Sun Hongmei sought help from the county leaders, and the whole family moved to the county.

After the reform and opening up, the two twins went into business and made a lot of money. Zhang Xiaohui still remembers that before she died, they had become famous entrepreneurs in the city.

Zhang Xiaohui thought more than once that if she were Sun Hongmei's daughter-in-law, she would get along well with her parents-in-law and treat her brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law well. She would not marry another man even if she became a widow. She would not be like Lin Yue, who was selfish and willful, and who only knew how to quarrel with her parents-in-law and bully her sister-in-law all day long.

Yesterday, the old couple heard that Zhang Yuandong had returned, and they waited at home until dark but no one came, so they got very angry. For some reason, she was very angry in front of Sun Hongmei.

In order to show that she was well-informed, she also told him what she had learned in her previous life: that Zhang Yuandong was injured and won first-class merit.

But now it seems that Zhang Yuandong doesn't look injured at all. Even the ugly scar on his face that he had for a lifetime has disappeared. Zhang Xiaohui was so scared that her hands were shaking.

She never thought that Sun Hongmei would be so stupid. There was a living person standing in front of her, but she ignored him and even said something like "a broken arm".

Zhang Xiaohui wanted to stop Sun Hongmei, but it was too late. She pulled Sun Hongmei's sleeve, trying to make her shut up, but Sun Hongmei was angry and pushed her aside.

Zhang Yuandong's eyes suddenly became sharp. He almost lost his arm, but even his troops didn't know about it. Apart from him and Lin Yue, only the group of people who chased him at that time knew about it. How did Sun Hongmei know about it?

The last mission had claimed more than a dozen lives. If Lin Yue hadn't rescued him in time, he might have died there. This time, he left the first-class merit commendation on the division commander's desk and vowed to wait until the mission was over and he had avenged his comrades before claiming it. How did Sun Hongmei know that the commendation hadn't even been issued?

His eyes swept across everyone in the room and finally stopped at Zhang Xiaohui, who was hiding behind Sun Hongmei, covering her arm and not daring to cry out in pain.

Lin Yue was also shocked by this big piece of news. She looked at Zhang Yuandong's intact arm, and her eyes swept around the room. She immediately understood something and looked at Zhang Xiaohui in shock.

The atmosphere in the room was too weird. Sun Hongmei was frightened by Zhang Yuandong's sharp eyes. She slowly calmed down and then she realized something was wrong.

Zhang Yuandong was not in a hurry either. He sat lazily against the wall, with his arms clasped across his chest and his feet resting on a small stool in front of him, just quietly looking at Sun Hongmei and Zhang Xiaohui behind her.

He didn't look like a strict and disciplined soldier, but rather a sloppy and unruly person. His long legs were so eye-catching that the room seemed a little cramped. Lin Yue couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Zhang Yuandong caught Lin Yue's gaze and, as if burned, quickly put his legs down and sat up straight.

He cleared his throat and said, "Where did you hear all this nonsense, Mom? I'm right in front of you, can't you tell if I'm injured or not?"

Sun Hongmei turned her head and glared at Zhang Xiaohui fiercely, and Zhang Yuandong also turned his gaze to her. After entering the door, he finally took a good look at this woman.

He didn't know how T-woman dressed, but he could tell that her outfit was definitely not something an ordinary farm girl could afford, especially the pair of sandals on her feet. Thinking of the price he had seen in the department store before, his eyes became sharper.

Zhang Xiaohui was frightened by his gaze and quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, Brother Yuandong, I just heard it from others. You know, some things get more and more outrageous the more they spread. I don't know whether it's true or not, so I told my godmother."

"Fuck?"

Zhang Xiaohui's lips trembled a little: "Third, Third Auntie!"

Zhang Yuandong seemed to be in a very good mood: "So that's how it is. I'm fine, but you should be more careful with your words in the future. Don't talk nonsense about things you don't know are true or false. Look how scared you made my mother."

Sun Hongmei didn't care about Zhang Xiaohui being embarrassed. She only cared about what mattered to her: "Even if you weren't injured, you should have received resettlement allowance after you retired from the army, right? Give it to me!"

Zhang Yuandong said seriously: "The army has arranged a job for me, why should I ask for resettlement fees?"

Sun Hongmei was so angry that she was about to curse when two young boys about twelve or thirteen years old rushed in from outside. They were the brothers Zhang Shouren and Zhang Shouyi.

Two people ran in from outside, stood in front of Zhang Yuandong cautiously, and shouted, "Brother!"

Zhang Yuandong finally smiled sincerely. He looked them up and down and said, "Not bad. You look much stronger than last time. But you are still a little weak. You need to exercise more in the future. How is your study going? Have you fallen behind?"

Zhang Shouyi chuckled and said, "No, we all go to school when we have free time."

As he spoke, he did not forget to look Zhang Yuandong all over, and it was obvious that he had also heard about his injury.

Lin Yue always felt that the conversations between the three brothers were a little weird. It didn't sound like a conversation between brothers who hadn't seen each other for a long time, but more like a father disciplining his sons.

When Sun Hongmei saw her two sons, she was furious: "Who asked you to come here? You didn't listen to me at all, did you? Have you finished the job I asked you to do?"

Zhang Shouren begged, "Mom, my brother finally came back, please stop making trouble and let him and his wife stay for a reunion dinner tonight."

Sun Hongmei slapped her thigh and cursed, "What are you eating? There's no food at home. All you do is eat all day. Why don't you think about whether our family, young and old, will starve to death if we don't have a decent income?"

The two brothers were extremely embarrassed and quietly defended Lin Yue: "Sister-in-law sends money every month and often sends food to our family. Don't say that in front of your brother!"

Sun Hongmei was so angry that she pinched each of her two sons and scolded them for being ungrateful and possessed by evil spirits. Unfortunately, the two children would never cry endlessly like they did when they were little.

Lin Yue didn't say a word after entering the room, she just stood aside and watched the show silently. She ignored Sun Hongmei's crying and instead secretly observed the appearance of the four siblings.

She looked at the three brothers standing together, and then at Zhang Xiaoxi who was secretly looking through the food, and found that Zhang Yuandong looked very different from his brothers and sisters. And Zhang Zhiwei looked nothing like Zhang Yuandong.

Although it can be said that Zhang Yuandong is more like Sun Hongmei, he just feels out of place in this family, like a big white goose suddenly appearing in a flock of gray ducks. For example, his thick eyebrows and bright eyes, as well as his height of nearly 1.9 meters, make him stand out.

If Lin Yue had not heard Xu's father talk about Sun Hongmei's past, she might not have noticed it. But now that she knows that Zhang Yuandong is not Zhang Zhiwei's biological son, it is particularly obvious.

She was still daydreaming when Zhang Yuandong stood up and said, "Okay, if there's nothing else, we'll leave first. The two children are still too young and won't feel hungry. Aunt Su's family has left some food for us, so we won't stay any longer."

Sun Hongmei didn't get the money, and she heard that he was making fun of her, so she was so angry that she chased them to the door and cursed them.

Lin Yue signaled the two children to cover their ears, saying that Sun Hongmei's curses were too foul and not suitable for children to hear.

Zhang Yuandong turned around and gave his mother a look that frightened her into silence. She had not forgotten how this evil spirit had frightened her before he left last time.

Sun Hongmei turned back to the yard and saw Zhang Xiaohui standing at the door. She was furious and said angrily, "It's not raining anymore and the flood is over. Why are you still staying in my house? Go back to your own home!"

Zhang Xiaohui was used to being flattered these days and had never suffered such an injustice. She wanted to leave on the spot, but unfortunately she couldn't leave yet and could only endure it.

Her own house had not been tidied up yet, and her parents, brothers and sisters-in-law had not moved back yet. If she was really kicked out now, she would have nowhere to live.

Thinking of this, she chased Sun Hongmei into the house and followed behind Sun Hongmei again to try to please her.
