Zhao Yunxiang slowly stood up and planned to go back to her room to check on the children. If the children were not in their room, she would go out to look for them.
A dark shadow followed Zhao Yunxiang stealthily. When he saw Zhao Yunxiang walking unsteadily, the dark shadow's eyes flashed with determination to win.
Zhao Yunxiang was about to push open the door when suddenly a dark figure behind her covered her mouth with a towel. She tried to scream but a pungent smell of medicine entered her trachea. She tilted her head and fainted.
When she woke up again, Zhao Yunxiang found herself sleeping naked on the large carved bed that came with her as a dowry. The discomfort in her lower body made Zhao Yunxiang guess what had happened after she fell into a coma.
What kind of snake den and wolf den is this old Zhou family? Zhixin had just died, and she was raped at home. Zhao Yunxiang's eyes went black, and she wished she could die immediately.
Zhao Yunxiang slowly put on her clothes. Before she fainted, she smelled not only the scent of medicine but also the pungent smell of garlic. Whoever ate garlic in the Zhou family today would be her enemy! She... was going to kill that beast!
Zhao Yunxiang took out a kitchen knife from the kitchen, held it tightly in her hand, and came to Zhou Zhixin's mourning hall.
The Zhou family is all here today. During the few days the body is kept, people who are familiar with the body will come to pay their respects, so the mourning hall must be full of people.
Just now, Zhao Yunxiang decided to leave for a while because she saw that the Zhou family was all there. The Zhou family has always been like this, never missing an opportunity to put on a show in order to show their good family tradition of brotherly love and respect.
Zhao Yunxiang walked into the mourning hall, chasing Zhou Zhigang with a kitchen knife. Of the men in the Zhou family, only Zhou Zhigang had that strong smell of garlic. Zhao Yunxiang was certain that Zhou Zhigang was the one who had just defiled her.
"That bitch Zhao Yunxiang has gone crazy!" Wu Jinfeng exclaimed, but hid far away.
Several men from the Zhou family rushed over, snatched the kitchen knife from Zhao Yunxiang's hand, and tied Zhao Yunxiang tightly with a thick hemp rope.
I’m not crazy! I’m not crazy! Zhao Yunxiang wanted to curse, but a piece of rag was immediately stuffed into her mouth.
Bitch! Wu Jinfeng cursed Zhao Yunxiang with her mouth without a sound.
I'm not crazy! You Zhou family members are the crazy ones! My brother's body is still warm, and as the eldest brother, he even doesn't let his brother's wife go. He is not a human being!
The days that followed were a living hell for Zhao Yunxiang. She was tied up every day and given only a bowl of rice soup. Wu Jinfeng brought a large pile of pills and force-fed them several times a day.
Zhao Yunxiang knew with her toes that those pills were probably not good things. She spit them out several times, but Wu Jinfeng forced them back in.
A few days later, Zhao Yunxiang was already unconscious. She felt drowsy every day, unable to think straight, and didn't even know if she was hungry. She ate whatever the two sisters-in-law of the Zhou family fed her.
Zhou Zhixin's body was laid to rest for seven days before his funeral. Zhao Yunxiang had become a dazed and naive person. With her remaining consciousness, she knew that the person lying in the coffin was her dearest.
Seeing several people carrying the coffin to leave, Zhao Yunxiang refused to accept it. She climbed onto the coffin and refused to let those people carry her Zhixin away.
Zhou Chunping approached with a vicious look and pulled Zhao Yunxiang down. Zhao Yunxiang's head hit the ground, bleeding profusely. The Zhou family ignored him and proceeded with the usual arrangements for Zhou Zhixin's funeral.
"Mom, Mom!" Zhou Jiasheng and Zhou Yuanyuan rushed over and helped Zhao Yunxiang up from the ground. The two children's faces were covered in stains, as if they hadn't washed in days.
The stinging pain from the head injury made Zhao Yunxiang's mind clearer. Seeing the miserable Zhou Yuanyuan and her brother and sister, Zhao Yunxiang ignored her own bleeding wounds and hugged her two children whom she hadn't seen for a long time, crying loudly...
It was already bright outside. After Zhou Zhixin got up, he saw that his wife looked drowsy. He wanted to let Zhao Yunxiang sleep in, so he didn't bother her.
"Zhixin, Zhixin." Zhao Yunxiang muttered twice.
Zhou Zhixin stood by the bed, buttoning his clothes. He turned around and looked at Zhao Yunxiang's sleeping face, a smile on his face. His Yunxiang was dreaming about him even in her dreams!
"Yuanyuan, Jiasheng!" Zhao Yunxiang's voice was a little louder. This time Zhou Zhixin heard it clearly and couldn't help but frown.
Is Yunxiang having a nightmare? Why is her voice so full of sorrow?
Zhou Zhixin sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Zhao Yunxiang. Zhao Yunxiang's face showed a lot of expressions, sometimes sad, sometimes desolate, sometimes angry, and sometimes desolate... What shocked Zhou Zhixin even more was Zhao Yunxiang's tears, which flowed out from the corners of her eyes one by one, and soon wet the pillowcase.
"Yunxiang, wake up." Zhou Zhixin reached out and nudged Zhao Yunxiang. He had heard before that if someone was having a nightmare, just wake them up.
Zhao Yunxiang didn't react, but her tears flowed even faster.
"Yunxiang, wake up!" This time, Zhou Zhixin used more force and his voice was much louder. Isn't it said that dreamers will wake up if they are pushed? Why is Yunxiang not waking up?
Zhao Yunxiang still didn't respond and was still sleeping.
"Dad, what's wrong with Mom?" Zhou Yuanyuan and Zhou Jiasheng were practicing martial arts in the yard early in the morning. When they heard the noise in the room, they hurried in.
Seeing Zhao Yunxiang looking like she was in a nightmare, Zhou Yuanyuan hurried forward and pushed away Zhou Zhixin who was sitting on the edge of the bed.
Zhou Yuanyuan stretched out her tender white index finger and pressed it hard on Zhao Yunxiang's philtrum.
In Zhao Yunxiang's case, acupuncture with silver needles would have been the most effective treatment, but Zhou Yuanyuan didn't have the silver needles with her, and Zhao Yunxiang's condition was not very good, so Zhou Yuanyuan had to settle for the second best and use the power of her fingertips to stimulate Zhao Yunxiang's central nervous system.
Zhou Yuanyuan pressed her fingers hard and called out, "Mom! Wake up!"
Zhou Jiasheng was also getting anxious. Seeing his sister so worried, he thought his mother might not be well, so he quickly called out, "Mom, Mom! Wake up quickly!"
Zhao Yunxiang was dreaming that a few years later, Zhou Jiasheng was sentenced to prison for intentional injury, and she almost collapsed.
At this time, the calls of Zhou Yuanyuan and Zhou Jiasheng kept ringing in Zhao Yunxiang's ears, pulling back Zhao Yunxiang's nerves that were on the verge of collapse.
Zhao Yunxiang was startled and opened her eyes. She found herself lying on the bed in her brother's house. What had just happened was just a nightmare.
Zhou Zhixin, who had died in her dream, was now standing in front of the bed, looking at her with a loving smile on his face.
Two anxious-looking children were lying beside the bed. They were Zhou Yuanyuan and Zhou Jiasheng.
Fortunately, it was all a dream! Zhao Yunxiang heaved a sigh of relief, feeling that she was finally alive.
"Yunxiang, did you have a nightmare?" Zhou Zhixin asked with concern. Seeing Zhao Yunxiang struggling in her dream and looking at her face full of despair, Zhou Zhixin could imagine that Zhao Yunxiang must be in a bad mood.
Recalling the scene in her dream, Zhao Yunxiang found Zhou Zhixin annoying no matter how she looked at him.
