The room was bare and empty.
There were spider webs and rats everywhere, which scared Niu Lili so much that she screamed.
"Ah! Ah! Ah! Rat, there's a rat."
She hid behind Zhang Long, but Zhang Long ruthlessly pushed her away.
"Hurry up and clean up this place. We will live here from now on."
Niu Lili felt cold all over.
"What did you say? Why are we here? Didn't you get a promotion? You were the deputy leader before, so you should be better than the deputy leader now! How could the deputy leader live in a place like this?"
"Zhang Long, I don't want to live here, let's go back!"
She pulled Zhang Long and was about to leave.
“Pah.”
Zhang Long slapped Niu Lili in the face.
"Are you stupid? You still don't know what happened? You are really too stupid. How can you compare with Jiang Mengning?"
"Niu Lili, let me tell you, I didn't get a promotion. I was demoted and expelled from the army. From now on, I'll stay here for the rest of my life. Hahaha, now you know! Are you happy? The two of us can stay here forever and never leave each other."
He laughed like a madman.
Niu Lili covered her face and shed tears in pain.
"No, I don't want to stay here, I want to go back."
"Go back? I've already played you to pieces. If you dare to go back, I'll tell everyone what happened with you in bed. And I won't let you go back. It was you who wanted to live a good life with me, so you can't break your promise."
After saying the last sentence viciously, he grabbed Niu Lili's hair and slammed her against the door.
"Hurry up and clean up the house. If I don't clean it when I get back, I'll kill you."
Niu Lili looked at the barren desert and felt hopeless.
From then on, she got up earlier than the chickens and slept later than the dogs. She had to work hard every day and serve Zhang Long when she returned home.
If things don't go his way, he'll be severely beaten.
After only one month on the farm, she lost twenty pounds and now looks neither human nor ghost.
A year later, she became pregnant, but her health was so poor that she miscarried.
With repeated pregnancies and miscarriages, my body became weaker and weaker.
When Zhang Long learned that Jiang Mengning had given birth to twins, he went crazy and wanted Niu Lili to give birth to twins.
Niu Lili's current body, how could she possibly give birth again! Not to mention twins, Zhang Long didn't have that kind of talent.
After her last miscarriage, Niu Lili was declared incapable of pregnancy again.
Zhang Long was disheartened. One night, he went out drinking and got drunk. He accidentally fell into a trap for catching wild animals and died.
His death did not cause any harm to Niu Lili, but it did give her a sense of relief.
No one beat or scolded her, and she finally got through the hard times.
Just looking at her pale and thin self in the mirror, she covered her face and started crying.
Over the years, I occasionally heard news about Jiang Mengning, and it was always about how happy and good her life was. Now looking at myself, I'm afraid I can't even compare to her.
She had been competing with Jiang Mengning for so long, but in the end, she lost everything.
If she could do it again, she would not want to live for men out of jealousy. She would live for herself, living freely and unrestrainedly.
