She is 42 years old, and her adoptive parents, who have raised her as their own daughter for twelve years, still treat her like a child.
Seeing her elderly mother frying lotus root cakes for her at the table, Ye Qiao's appetite increased greatly, and she ate three pieces in a row. I remember that when I was a child, I loved the Chinese New Year and Mid-Autumn Festival the most. In the days of scarcity, only during the New Year and festivals could we eat something good.
They were always grateful to her, saying that if it weren't for her, Qiao Tian would have probably returned to his hometown to farm. Without her advice, their family might still be farming those few acres of land now...
The whole village is grateful to her.
But what about the previous life?
She didn't dare to think about it.
In my previous life, I was such a scumbag and a troublemaker. After leaving here, I returned only a few times and failed to repay my adoptive parents...
"Old man, I think Qiao Qiao is still worried!"
"I've noticed that too. Do you want to give Ah Xiao a call?"
"Axiao is so busy, it's not good to disturb him easily, right? I don't know if it's because of her cousin... She came back the day before yesterday, and hugged me tightly when she saw me at the village entrance! She came here just once before the New Year and said she missed me!" said Mother Qiao.
Old Qiao also smiled innocently, "She even praised me for how handsome I was when I was young. This girl keeps talking about her childhood! She even jokingly complained about why I sent her back to the Ye family!"
"Silly girl, if she doesn't go back to the Ye family, can she become a female entrepreneur? Can she marry Lu Beixiao?" Old Qiao asked again.
Ye Qiao stood at the stairs on the second floor and heard their conversation clearly, feeling bitter.
She has been thinking these past two days, if she had not returned to the Ye family and had continued to grow up in the countryside, would her past life have been less miserable?
If Lu Beixiao hadn't met her, would he not have sacrificed himself in his previous life?
She had just fallen asleep when she entered the dream again...
The background this time is not the 90s and 00s of the previous life, but before liberation, probably the early years of the Republic of China.
The bustling streets of the provincial capital were bustling with black cars and rickshaws, most of which were occupied by well-dressed people. The Western-style buildings lining the streets were still adorned with advertising billboards that reflected the spirit of the era, and these billboards were covered with huge posters of female singers...
The clatter of horse hooves became louder and louder, and the originally congested street soon gave way to a wide road. The three leading horses were ridden by three officers in dark green woolen uniforms, and behind them followed a mighty army carrying spears.
"Master Qiao, look, the guy in the middle is Marshal Lu! He just returned to the city after a victorious battle!"
Behind the crowd, a middle-aged man in a long gown respectfully introduced the young and handsome "handsome man" next to him, who was wearing a dark gray tweed suit, a white shirt, a black tie, and short hair.
This young master Qiao is none other than Ye Qiao, a woman disguised as a man.
She had short hair, her hands in her trouser pockets, looking handsome and cool, with a toothpick in the corner of her mouth, looking unrestrained and romantic, attracting the woman next to her to look at her secretly from time to time.
Young Master Qiao's eyes were fixed on the majestic Marshal Lu, who was riding a horse, wearing a military cap, a dark green woolen military uniform, black long military boots, and holding the reins in his hands!
On the street, many women called out to him lovingly.
As the distance got closer, the cold and heroic face under the brim of the military cap became clearer and clearer. He exuded a harsh aura, like a flower on a high mountain that ordinary people could not reach!
But her mission this time is to pick this high mountain flower!
As she was looking, suddenly, she felt a pair of sharp eyes shooting towards her. When she looked closely, Ye Qiao realized that Young Marshal Lu seemed to be looking at her!
——
That’s all for today. I’ll finish the first life in a few chapters.
