"Zhixin, if you fall in love with someone else, please tell me first. Don't let me be such a fool and find out only at the end." Zhao Yunxiang recalled the scene in her dream, and a bittersweet feeling welled up in her eyes. In her dream, the "Zhao Yunxiang" only discovered her husband had a woman after his death. Zhao Yunxiang didn't want to experience that heartbreaking feeling again.
"Yunxiang, tell me, what happened? Tell me and we will solve it together. Don't worry, you are the only woman in my heart, and I don't want anyone else but you." Zhou Zhixin felt that something was wrong with Zhao Yunxiang. Usually, Zhao Yunxiang would be so happy to see him come home to visit relatives, so why would she think about all these messes?
"Zhixin, I had a dream. In the dream, you..." Zhao Yunxiang, seeing Zhou Zhixin's genuine feelings, couldn't help but recount her nightmare to him. Of course, Zhao Yunxiang was vague about the dream in which Zhou Zhigang raped her, simply saying she was drugged. Zhao Yunxiang knew that Zhou Zhixin and Zhou Zhigang were brothers, and if she told him about the dream in which her uncle raped her, it might leave a lingering ache in Zhou Zhixin's heart, affecting their future relationship.
If this dream hadn't been too painful for Zhao Yunxiang, she wouldn't have told Zhou Zhixin about it. Now, she desperately wanted Zhou Zhixin's comfort.
It was just a dream. She shouldn't have doubted Zhixin. Her husband was a man of integrity, the upright yet stubborn Zhou Zhixin before her, the Zhou Zhixin who occasionally acted coquettishly and sometimes played dirty. He couldn't be the "Zhou Zhixin" in her dream who died in another woman's bed. Zhao Yunxiang consoled herself with this.
"Silly girl, that was a dream, it was fake. Look at your husband, do I look like a person with bad character? And a female educated youth? How can a female educated youth be as beautiful as you, your wife?" Zhou Zhixin decided to use his actions to tell Zhao Yunxiang how passionate his love for her was.
Soon, a noise inappropriate for children was heard in the room.
Zhou Yuanyuan has been paying attention to Zhao Yunxiang today. Somehow, she feels that Zhao Yunxiang must have a secret today.
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Zhou Yuanyuan practiced martial arts while peeping into Zhao Yunxiang and the others' room.
After Zhao Yunxiang and Zhou Zhixin finished telling each other about their dreams, Zhou Yuanyuan withdrew her peeping consciousness and began to think deeply.
Zhou Yuanyuan felt sorry for Zhao Yunxiang. With the foundation of her past life, Zhou Yuanyuan firmly believed that Zhao Yunxiang's nightmare was not just a dream. Perhaps the scene in the dream was what Zhao Yunxiang experienced in her past life after Zhou Zhixin's death.
In her previous life, Zhou Yuanyuan was too young. In her memory, she woke up one morning and didn't see her mother, Zhao Yunxiang. Before she could go find Zhao Yunxiang, she and her brother, Zhou Jiasheng, were dragged from their own room by Wu Jinfeng and her aunt, Li Chunjiao, like an eagle seizing chicks. They were taken to Wu Jinfeng's utility room and locked up for days and nights.
Wu Jinfeng threatened Zhou Yuanyuan and her siblings that there were bad guys outside and if they dared to make a sound, she would throw them into the mountains to feed the wolves.
During those days, Zhou Yuanyuan and her brother were hungry and full, sitting on the floor of the dark storage room, encouraging each other.
During those days, the Zhou family was bustling with activity. Zhou Yuanyuan and her siblings, remembering Wu Jinfeng's threats, didn't dare cry out. When they were released, they discovered the world above them had changed. Zhou Zhixin had become a despised "scoundrel," "sleeping" in a coffin, and their mother, Zhao Yunxiang, had gone mad.
Damn Wu Jinfeng! Damn old woman! Zhou Yuanyuan gritted her teeth, tasting a hint of blood in her mouth.
After Wu Jinfeng was released from the police station, she stood at the door for a while but did not see the Zhou family members coming to pick her up.
Wu Jinfeng was penniless and had no choice but to hide and dodge back to Zhoujia Village despite being hungry. In fact, even if Wu Jinfeng didn't hide, the villagers of Zhoujia Village who met her on the road would have avoided her as far as possible.
Good news doesn't travel far, but bad news travels a thousand miles. The news that Wu Jinfeng had been arrested by the police yesterday had spread to every corner of Zhoujia Village. For the past two days, the women in the village had gathered whenever they had free time to gossip about Wu Jinfeng.
There were no entertainment programs in that era, and Wu Jinfeng's story was passed around and evolved into many versions, one of which was: "Wu Jinfeng was a murderer. She killed people in the city and then ran to the countryside to settle down."
After Zhou Chunping went out yesterday afternoon, he returned home and sulked in bed. The old woman was really asking for trouble, picking on the third son's wife for no reason. Now, his Zhou family had become famous, but it was a bad reputation.
Zhou Chunping felt a tightness in his chest whenever he recalled Zhou Dazhu's sarcastic tone. That old man, Zhou Dazhu, was always known for kicking someone when they were down. Yesterday afternoon, Zhou Dazhu had specifically sent his son, Zhou Hongming, to invite Zhou Chunping to his house to ask, "Did Wu Jinfeng really kill someone?" After all, Zhou Chunping was the only person Zhou Dazhu had ever met who could have come up with a few hundred dollars to buy Zhou Fugui's house.
Murder? If Wu Jinfeng had the guts to kill someone, Zhou Chunping wouldn't have run to the poor mountain village of Zhoujia Village to hide from her.
After angrily telling Zhou Dazhu to rest assured, Zhou Chunping returned home in a huff. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He sent his second son, Zhou Zhiqiang, to town to retrieve his eldest son, Zhou Zhigang, and told his two sons to stop interfering with the old woman's affairs. Zhou Chunping thought it would be a good idea to let Wu Jinfeng learn a lesson at the police station, so she wouldn't continue to be so ignorant of her own limitations and almost ruin his plans.
Zhou Zhigang and Zhou Zhiqiang looked at each other in bewilderment at Zhou Chunping's strange order. However, for now, Zhou Chunping was the head of the Zhou family. Since Zhou Chunping had ordered them not to interfere in Wu Jinfeng's affairs, the two of them dared not disobey.
After breakfast, Zhou Miaomiao and Zhou Meimei played a game of picking up stones in the yard. For the past two days, Gu Dahua and Li Chunjiao had strictly instructed their children not to go play with their friends in the village or leave the house.
Zhou Meimei has been avoiding Zhou Miaomiao for some time. These days, Zhou Miaomiao has been constantly showing her kindness to Zhou Meimei, and even took out her favorite hair flower and gave it to Zhou Meimei.
Zhou Meimei had always loved the yellow silk flower, which Zhou Zhixin had bought for Zhou Yuanyuan and sent back from Province G. She fell in love with it the moment she saw it, but unfortunately Zhou Miaomiao was more assertive than she was. As soon as Zhao Yunxiang opened the package, Zhou Miaomiao snatched the flower away.
Zhou Meimei was jealous for a long time. Seeing that Zhou Miaomiao was willing to use silk flowers to make peace, Zhou Meimei and Zhou Miaomiao started playing together again.
Seeing the usually strong Wu Jinfeng walk in with her shoulders hunched, Zhou Miaomiao quickly dropped the stone in her hand, leaned over and whispered, "Grandma."
