Zhou Zhixin was confused and spent the whole day lying in bed, feeling sorry for himself and thinking about his life. When he finally decided to stop associating with the Zhou family, Zhao Yunxiang's anger reached its peak.
When Zhou Zhixin finally emerged from his self-pity, he noticed something was wrong with the way Zhao Yunxiang looked at him. Trying to appease Zhao Yunxiang was no longer effective.
Zhao Yunxiang’s anger was not only because of Zhou Yuanyuan’s coma, but more because of Zhou Zhixin’s foolish loyalty.
Zhao Yunxiang believed in her father's medical skills. After Zhao Qingshan rushed to the hospital and took Zhou Yuanyuan's pulse that day, he said that Zhou Yuanyuan was not seriously ill.
Over the years, Zhao Yunxiang was deeply touched by Zhou Zhixin's devotion to his family. Otherwise, Zhao Yunxiang would not have been afraid of affecting their relationship and would never have said a word against the Zhou family in front of Zhou Zhixin.
All the years of tolerance and care Zhou Zhixin had received in return was the Zhou family's cruelty, even putting drugs in Zhou Zhixin's noodles? Was this the Zhou family's "kindness" to Zhou Zhixin?
Zhao Yunxiang was filled with anger. For the sake of so-called filial piety, for the so-called opinions of others, how foolish they had been all these years!
Zhao Yunxiang thought that after what had happened, Zhou Zhixin would at least confront the Zhou family and cause a scene. Ideally, he would take this opportunity to completely sever all ties with them.
After Zhou Yuanyuan woke up, she also deliberately put on an act in front of Zhao Yunxiang: Dad is not that man’s biological son, right?
Well, the little girl is quite awesome. When she talks about Zhou Chunping, she doesn’t even bother to call him grandpa, but simply calls him “that guy” instead.
Zhou Yuanyuan was actually quite depressed because she knew the truth but couldn't say it out loud.
Zhao Yunxiang took Zhou Yuanyuan's words to heart. No wonder, even a tiger won't eat its own cubs! Zhao Yunxiang didn't dare believe Zhou Chunping's treatment of Zhou Zhixin, saying he was his biological father.
In Zhao Yunxiang's heart, Zhou Zhixin has always been a man of integrity. However, when it comes to dealing with the Zhou family, Zhou Zhixin backs down.
For the sake of so-called "filial piety" and "public opinion," Zhou Zhixin decided to keep silent. He was the only one who knew that Zhou Chunping and his son wanted to kill him. The incident had already happened, and with no evidence, Zhou Chunping wouldn't admit it even if he questioned him.
Zhao Yunxiang felt deeply disappointed. All she wanted was the stability and happiness of her own family. Zhou Zhixin, knowing full well the Zhou family's cruelty and viciousness, buried his head in the sand like an ostrich, pretending nothing had happened. Was such a Zhou Zhixin still worthy of Zhao Yunxiang's lifelong trust? Could the three of them return to a Zhou family like this? Who knew what vicious tricks awaited them upon their return?
Zhao Yunxiang felt that the nightmare she had last time might have been a warning from heaven. If she and her family continued to struggle with Zhou Chunping and his men, everything in her dream might become reality.
In her dream, Zhou Zhixin's death, her madness, her son Zhou Jiasheng's imprisonment, her daughter Zhou Yuanyuan's being sold... all these were things Zhao Yunxiang couldn't bear. Forget it! Since Zhou Zhixin couldn't bear to leave the Zhou family, let him be his "filial son"! She, Zhao Yunxiang, decided not to accompany him any longer.
Zhao Yunxiang is a bit stubborn. After she made up her mind, she ignored Zhou Zhixin.
Even when living at her brother's house, Zhao Yunxiang and her son and daughter occupied a separate room, not allowing Zhou Zhixin to even set foot inside. A door separated the once most loving couple.
Zhou Zhixin realized that his usually gentle wife was really angry this time. After Zhao Yunxiang shouted the word "divorce" in anger, Zhou Zhixin felt as if his heart was being grabbed by a huge hand, and it hurt so much.
During these days, no matter how much Zhou Zhixin apologized, Zhao Yunxiang remained unmoved. She simply quietly bought clothes for the children and helped her sister-in-law Xu Liqin with housework. On the day she returned to her parents' home, Zhao Yunxiang only packed a few clothes for herself and the children, leaving the rest at Zhou's house.
Zhao Yunxiang was a discerning person. As a married woman, her brother's willingness to allow her family to return to her parents' home was out of kindness. She usually did more work to make her sister-in-law feel better. After all, the mistress of the Zhao family was her sister-in-law Xu Liqin, not Zhao Yunxiang.
Zhao Yunxiang will never set foot in the Zhou family again. She is waiting for the day when Zhao Qingshan will come back.
The atmosphere at home has been a little weird these past two days. Zhou Jiasheng is fine, but how can he hide it from the clever Zhou Yuanyuan?
In past and present lives, Zhou Zhixin had always been an insignificant figure to Zhou Yuanyuan. When she was first reborn, Zhou Yuanyuan even considered taking her mother and brother and leaving the Zhou family.
This time, Zhao Yunxiang finally stood up straight, which made Zhou Yuanyuan very relieved. In marriage, women are usually the weaker party. If a woman has to obey her man in everything, regardless of right or wrong, her life will be too sad.
Zhou Yuanyuan supported Zhao Yunxiang in teaching her father a lesson, so that Zhou Zhixin wouldn't overestimate his own charm and try to smooth things over by trying to cover up what the Zhou family had done.
However, Zhou Yuanyuan would not allow her parents to divorce. Zhou Zhixin had passed his critical moment, and the saying "after bad times come good times" was true. There was a high chance that Zhou Zhixin would have a smooth career in the future.
Her mother, Zhao Yunxiang, had suffered so much for Zhou Zhixin, so Zhou Yuanyuan wouldn't be so foolish as to let her mother push away the future glory and wealth. Besides, Zhao Yunxiang's being so servile to Zhou Zhixin was actually an expression of her deep love for him!
Zhou Yuanyuan's current focus is to teach Zhou Zhixin a lesson and turn him into a loyal man to his mother Zhao Yunxiang.
It was another market day in Sanhe Town. After breakfast, Zhou Yuanyuan took her brother Zhou Jiasheng out.
As the Chinese New Year approaches, every market in Sanhe Town is crowded with people.
According to the custom in Yuyuan County, everyone, rich or poor, must have a good New Year. Even the poorest families will have a meal on New Year's Eve that is several times more sumptuous than usual.
At the market, many more farmers brought their agricultural products for exchange. After all, food and drink for the New Year, as well as new clothes for children, are all considerable expenses.
Zhou Yuanyuan and Zhou Jiasheng were moving around in the crowd. Having experienced loneliness in her previous life, Zhou Yuanyuan felt very at ease in crowded places.
"Mother Chunhua, I heard that there are processed cloths for sale in your hometown's village. Do you have any flowered cloth suitable for my daughter Erni? I want to buy a few feet to make her a new dress for the New Year." A young woman in a pink flowered cotton-padded jacket and carrying a basket was talking to a young woman in a blue cloth gown next to her.
Zhou Yuanyuan happened to be walking behind the two young wives. When she heard their conversation, a hint of surprise flashed through her mind.
