"Qingyu, wake up! Why are you so desperate to kill yourself by running into a tree!"
"Even if you don't want to marry that scoundrel at the village entrance, you don't have to be so pessimistic!"
"Qingyu, what will happen to Brother Feng Chao if you die? He's still waiting for you to marry him!"
As soon as Lin Qingyu regained consciousness, her head began to throb with pain, and she could hear a constant commotion in her ears.
It's so noisy!
Wasn't she at the hospital getting checked out? How come I think I heard that disgusting voice?
With difficulty, he opened his eyes, but his left eye was filled with blood flowing from his head, making it difficult to see his surroundings.
Wu Lili breathed a slight sigh of relief when she saw that Lin Qingyu had really woken up. If he had really died here, she wouldn't have been able to explain it to him.
However, because of her loud voice, people who had just finished work were attracted to come over.
"Oh dear! Isn't this the Lin family's child? Why is his head covered in blood?"
"Hey, Wu Zhiqing, what's going on?"
The crowd gathered around, but no one offered to lend a hand and take Lin Qingyu to the clinic. They just stood there with their arms crossed, watching the spectacle.
Everyone was wearing coarse cloth short-sleeved shirts with patches sewn on them. In those days, few people would meddle in other people's business.
Wu Lili was an educated youth assigned to Lihua Village last year. Because the educated youth settlement was too full, Lin Qingyu kindly let her stay at her home.
The two are usually very close, so I don't know what happened today.
However, the aunties who were watching the commotion all knew that Gu Shi, who lived at the east end of the village, had asked someone to propose marriage to the Lin family a few days ago, and they heard that he had prepared a dowry of five hundred yuan!
The reason why everyone privately calls Gu Shi "the Lonely Ghost" is because his father, mother, and sister have all passed away, leaving him all alone in the village with his eight-year-old nephew.
Wu Lili blinked her small eyes frantically, trying to squeeze out a few tears, and said in a tearful voice.
"Qingyu is having a mental breakdown. She says she doesn't want to marry Gu Shi from the village entrance and is determined to kill herself..."
Lin Qingyu took a while to recover before finally regaining full consciousness.
Is she back to the time before she got married?
Just five hours ago, she was standing in the hospital lobby, watching her husband, Feng Chao, take his friend, Wu Lili, to a prenatal checkup.
She had just had a miscarriage and was urged to go back to work. As a result, she collapsed at her post due to exhaustion and heavy bleeding. When her colleagues took her to the hospital, she witnessed that scene.
In her previous life, she married Feng Chao and received a dowry of five yuan. She rejected the marriage proposal from the rough man at the village entrance, who had prepared a dowry of five hundred yuan, not including other items.
In her previous life, her younger brother died tragically, and her mother died of grief and illness, all because she insisted on marrying Feng Chao.
If she had been doing well, she would have accepted it. But after working hard for most of her life and having two miscarriages because of a scumbag, she ended up like this.
She immediately confronted the two men, and in her anger, she pushed Wu Lili. As a result, Feng Chao pinned her to the ground and beat her until she lost consciousness.
Perhaps God took pity on her and gave her a second chance, allowing her to return to 1973 and choose her life anew.
On the blackboard at the village entrance, it reads "Strive forward along the road of Daqing." The large stone mill at the village entrance stands quietly there, and because it is frequently used, there are no traces of moss on it. Not far away, the mud-brick houses are still emitting white smoke.
All of this made Lin Qingyu feel extremely at ease.
At this moment, Lin Qingyu reached out and pushed Wu Lili, not wanting to hear any more outrageous things she said, and interrupted her directly.
"I'm fine, I just tripped and fell. Don't worry about me, everyone, go home and have dinner!"
After speaking, without giving Wu Lili a chance to react, he grabbed her forcefully and used her arm to get up from the ground.
Wu Lili was in so much pain that the tears she hadn't been able to squeeze out earlier were now flowing out, but Lin Qingyu was still talking.
"Wu Zhiqing, I'm exhausted. Thank you for helping me up."
An auntie who was watching the commotion nearby, seeing that she was alright, pretended to be concerned and said, "Xiaoyu! You mustn't do anything rash, or your mother will be heartbroken!"
"That's right, let's go home quickly!"
Seeing that the onlookers were about to leave, Wu Lili became anxious. She had waited there specifically to make herself a laughingstock in the village.
So she raised her voice and said loudly, "Xiaoyu! I know you like Brother Feng Chao, but you don't need to do this!"
Lin Qingyu was still thinking about what she had done in her previous life when she heard this and glanced at Wu Lili.
Her icy gaze made Wu Lili's scalp tingle.
Sure enough, the next second, "Wu Zhiqing, I never said I liked anyone, did Feng Chao tell you?"
"When did you become so close to Teacher Feng? And I remember Teacher Feng isn't the type to lie, is she?"
Upon hearing this, everyone was so excited about the gossip that they forgot all about eating.
Who doesn't know Feng Chao? He's the son of the village chief of Lihua Village, twenty years old this year, and works as a teacher at the village's primary school. Most importantly, he's not married yet.
Wu Lili looked at Lin Qingyu in disbelief, wondering why someone who never contradicted her was behaving so strangely today.
"I... I didn't mean anything by it. I just noticed that Teacher Feng always helped you with your work, so I thought you liked him too!"
"Alright, Wu Zhiqing, I know you care about Teacher Feng a lot, but Teacher Feng is so busy every day and hasn't helped me much. Or are you jealous, Wu Zhiqing?"
Lin Qingyu raised her hand and wiped the bloodstains from her forehead. They were almost completely dry. After wiping them with her hand, only a few marks remained.
