“Ye Feifei and I did like each other before, but her family didn’t approve. They thought I was too poor to give her happiness, so they broke up with me and we haven’t been in contact since. Even after I married you, I haven’t contacted Ye Feifei or met her family. You have to believe my wife.” Only then did Zhang Dali realize that Xiang Shulan wanted to commit suicide because of this letter.
It's terrifying to think about.
“Everyone says I forced you to marry me, but everyone in the village back home knows I’m your wife. I’ve been your servant for so many years, what can I do?” She really didn’t expect that Zhang Dali would find someone he liked in the army, and that Xiang Shulan’s life was no longer under her control. Being bought home to be her wife was not something she wanted.
Having lived in Zhang Dali's family for so many years, it would be difficult for her to remarry, as she would be subject to gossip and judgment.
Shen Qiaoyue listened to Xiang Shulan's crying and felt very sorry for her.
She had no source of income, no job, and her family had abandoned her. Under those circumstances, if she didn't marry Zhang Dali, she would only have one way out: death.
"Shulan, I really don't know, you have to believe me." Seeing Xiang Shulan crying so sadly, Zhang Dali anxiously grabbed Xiang Shulan's hand and said, "I had already separated from her for a long time before I married you. I never thought about divorce after marrying you. Why are you being so foolish as to try to commit suicide over a letter!"
Zhang Dali was so frightened that his hands trembled, and he gripped Xiang Shulan's hand tightly.
Xiang Shulan's eyes hesitated; she felt wronged and sad.
Looking at Zhang Dali, I didn't know how to react.
She is indeed not independent enough; without Zhang Dali, she is nothing, and she is unwilling to let go.
"I don't want to either, but what can I do? If we really break up, I won't be able to do anything!" Xiang Shulan said tearfully.
“Wife, we won’t get a divorce. I will definitely live a good life with you.” Zhang Dali comforted Xiang Shulan while wiping away her tears. “I won’t lie to you. If I lie to you, may I be childless.”
"Why are you saying this?" Xiang Shulan covered Zhang Dali's mouth, saying that if she were to be childless, she wouldn't be able to have children.
Bai Le was eating when she heard the commotion. She immediately put down her meal and came over to see what was going on.
The main reason is that she had just arrived at the family compound a few days earlier than Shen Qiaoyue.
Their room was right across from Xiang Shulan's, very close; you could hear them just a few steps away.
Standing in the courtyard, I saw Zhang Dali explaining to Xiang Shulan, with Shen Qiaoyue standing to the side.
Shen Qiaoyue and Bai Le were standing outside, as was Lu He.
They came out from inside.
"What's going on?" Bai Le asked curiously.
Shen Qiaoyue shook her head and said, "It seems that everything should be alright."
Now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up and Zhang Dali knows the truth, he should be able to live a good life.
When Xiang Shulan saw Zhang Dali's explanation, she realized that she had misunderstood him.
Wiping away her tears, she said, "You really don't know?"
"I really don't know. I've been married to you for two years, and I haven't seen or spoken to Ye Feifei for two and a half years," Zhang Dali explained earnestly.
Previously, his family bought him a wife, but Zhang Dali didn't know about it. If his parents hadn't passed away, he would have been completely kept in the dark.
He originally didn't want to delay Xiang Shulan and thought he would give her some money to go back to her own home.
The elder brother and sister-in-law said that their parents had bought her with money, and if she didn't get married, they would sell her to another family to earn the money back.
Zhang Dali reprimanded his elder brother and sister-in-law for their behavior, disagreeing with their actions.
After much deliberation, Zhang Dali realized that Xiang Shulan had been living in his home for so many years, and everyone considered her their daughter-in-law. He couldn't just ignore her like this.
They brought Xiang Shulan out of her home and discussed it with her.
Let her find a job in the city, find a place for Xiang Shulan to live, and help her pay rent and living expenses every month.
As a result, she was almost kidnapped after living there for less than a month, but fortunately she was discovered in time and rescued.
After that, Xiang Shulan didn't dare to leave Zhang Dali too far. After thinking about it for a long time, she finally submitted a marriage report and got married.
They got along very well after getting married, but suddenly she attempted suicide, and Zhang Dali had no idea what was going on.
When Xiang Shulan realized that she had misunderstood Zhang Dali and that he wouldn't even give her a chance to explain, she tried to commit suicide.
I feel so stupid; I almost lost my life.
"Am I stupid?!" she cried as she asked. "I can't even manage on my own!"
Zhang Dali hugged Xiang Shulan, tears streaming down his face. "Who said that? It's my fault."
"What's going on now?" Bai Le wondered. The couple had been arguing just a moment ago, and now they were crying and laughing at the same time.
Shen Qiaoyue looked at Bai Le and teased, "Sister-in-law Bai has been very free lately. Every time there's any commotion in the family compound, you're always there."
“The point is, you’re always there.” Bai Le raised an eyebrow and looked at Shen Qiaoyue.
Shen Qiaoyue shrugged and said, "After the New Year, will we have to go to the hospital to report for duty?"
Bai Le is a student who graduated from medical school this year. Like her, she had never worked before. However, Bai Le had just finished her internship and graduated. Later, she married Deputy Regiment Commander Liu. After the marriage, her family encountered trouble. Her parents had accidents one after another, and she was unable to work for half a year.
Bai Le is the kind of girl who is neither fat nor thin, with delicate features, thick eyebrows, and big eyes.
She has a straightforward personality, and in her past life, she and Lin Yaya had the fiercest arguments.
The only pity is that Shen Qiaoyue never saw what Deputy Regiment Commander Liu looked like in either of her two lives; it seems he was transferred to the border garrison.
However, he belongs to this military region and was temporarily transferred there, so Bai Le lives in the family compound here.
