"Go to hell, you scum."
"Ah! No!"
An old man slashed Jiang Huaidong's neck.
Blood spurted towards Su Yue, who was standing next to him.
Su Yue was so frightened that she squatted down, hugged her head tightly, and her body trembled uncontrollably.
After a while, she sensed something was wrong with her surroundings, so she slowly raised her head and looked around.
What comes into view is a table missing a leg, and a calendar hanging on the wall.
When she saw that it said "1975", her eyes widened suddenly.
"1975? How could it be 1975 now?"
She clearly remembered that the year Jiang Huaidong returned to the village was...
She looked down at her hands, which were covered in grass juice, left over from when she picked pig feed.
Suddenly, she realized that she had been reborn.
She was reborn on the day she had the accident, which was also the day that man was beaten to death.
She didn't even know the man's name.
In her previous life, when she was eight years old, her father rescued Jiang Huaidong, who had been swept away by a flood, but was himself swept away by the flood.
Jiang Huaidong's parents promised that Jiang Huaidong would marry her when she turned eighteen.
My mother died young, and my father also passed away.
From then on, she lived at her second aunt Liu Meili's house.
If it weren't for the demobilization pay left by her father and the 50 cents a month that Jiang Huai's employer gave her, Liu Meili would never have let her stay at home.
At Liu Meili's home, she gets up early every day to do laundry and cook, and the food is so bad it's indescribable.
Being beaten and scolded since childhood has become a daily occurrence for me.
She longed to grow up and marry Jiang Huaidong, thinking that she could escape all of this.
After Jiang Huaidong was admitted to military academy, he did not return for several years.
There are many rumors in the village that Jiang Huaidong wants to marry a woman from outside the village and looks down on the uneducated village girls.
I heard that Jiang Huaidong is back, and he brought a comrade with him.
She happily ran to find him, and Jiang's mother cooked two bowls of egg soup, inviting her to eat with his comrades.
She didn't want to drink it because in the village, egg drop soup was only made for visiting guests from afar.
She is going to marry Jiang Huaidong, not be a guest.
Seeing that she wouldn't drink, Jiang Huaidong tried to persuade her, saying that she hadn't eaten anything good at home, but now that he was back, she could eat whatever she wanted.
A warmth filled her heart, and she picked up the bowl and drank it down.
She had only drunk half of it when she noticed that the soldier was lying motionless on the table, looking like he was drunk.
Jiang Huaidong stepped forward and nudged him, but when there was no response, he quickly walked out and locked them both inside the house.
She pounded on the door, and Jiang Huaidong coldly said from outside, "He is your future husband."
After saying that, he left.
She was terrified and couldn't understand why Jiang Huaidong would say that.
Isn't he her fiancé?
Why say that man?
Not long after, the man began to groan in discomfort.
She also felt her body getting hotter and hotter, and then she realized that they had all been drugged.
How dare Jianghuai East do this?
Wasn't that person his comrade-in-arms?
Why treat him like this?
It seemed that the man's egg drop soup had been laced with a sedative; he just kept his eyes closed and groaned without making any other movements.
She sat in the corner, clenching her teeth and enduring the pain.
Later, unable to resist any longer, or perhaps because her mind was already foggy, she walked towards the man.
After an unknown amount of time, the door was kicked open.
The Red Guards rushed in, dragged the man out, and beat him severely with hammers and hoes.
The heart-wrenching screams terrified her, making her tremble all over.
She got dressed and went outside, just in time to see a Red Guard raising a hoe high and shoveling it down at a man's head.
The blood instantly stained the soil red.
