"What is this? A newspaper?" Shen Huanxi opened the bag and found it was a local newspaper, Yunnan Evening News, but the date was not the latest one, but two months ago.
"What are you giving me this for?"
"If you look through it, there are award-winning works from this year's 'Beautiful Yunbei' photography exhibition."
"ah……"
Shen Huanxi turned to the back and found that this issue of the newspaper had indeed devoted a large amount of space to displaying the award-winning works.
She remembered the "Beautiful Yunnan" photography contest, which was held every year since the year of Yunnan's reform and opening up, with the aim of recording the new look of Yunnan after the reform and opening up.
This competition continued until the late 1990s.
"Why are you showing me this all of a sudden?"
"When you get a divorce, you leave the house with nothing, right? But did you know that your ex-husband had cheated on you before you got divorced?"
"I know."
"Yeah." When Xiao Shanhe heard Shen Huanxi say this, he did not show any surprise. He was always so calm.
"Then he is most likely guilty of bigamy, and the evidence is here." Xiao Shanhe pointed to a photo titled "New Rural Landscape".
"If there is evidence that he has committed bigamy, he could be sentenced to detention, and you don't have to leave the house."
Shen Huanxi looked at the photo that Xiao Shanhe pointed to. It was a rural scene.
The photo was taken in a corner of the countryside. You can see villagers riding bicycles back from buying vegetables, children playing with new toys, and village women wearing fashionable clothes and even having their hair permed...
This is indeed a new phenomenon. We didn't see such scenes during the Cultural Revolution.
Among the group of villagers in the photo, Shen Huanxi saw two familiar figures.
Feng Shenghui and Li Cuixiang!
Two people were cooking outdoors in a small courtyard.
Shen Huanxi had been to villages near Taolin Village to sell goods a few years ago, and now he recognized that the location of the photo was Li Cuixiang's village, Daohua Village.
Don’t Li Cuixiang and Feng Shenghui in the photo look like a couple living a simple life?
"The photography competition was held two months ago, and the newspaper was from last month. You were not divorced at that time.
I'm not trying to get you divorced and bring your property with you to marry me, I just think it's not worth it for you to leave the house with nothing. You earned the Feng family's fortune, right?" Xiao Shanhe said.
Shen Huanxi nodded.
"But isn't it too late? If I get this photo before my divorce, it can still be useful. Now Feng Shenghui and I are divorced, and the divorce agreement has been signed long ago."
"Keep it for now. It's just a few pieces of paper and doesn't take up any space."
"Okay." Shen Huanxi said, and was about to put the newspaper away, but suddenly he paused...
How did she find Li Cuixiang in another photo?
It was a photo of the city scene, taken at a nearby river street. The street was bustling with people, and it was very lively. Li Cuixiang was walking out of a hotel with a man.
The man was none other than Chen Fugui, Zhao Qiu'e's man, whom she had just seen at the Three Norths Project Command Center.
This scumbag Chen Fugui not only abused Zhao Qiu'e, but also cheated on her. What a coincidence, the person he cheated on was Li Cuixiang.
Shen Huanxi remembered that in his previous life, after Feng Shenghui was injured, Li Cuixiang immediately took away all his property and ran away with another man. She acted so quickly, which showed that Li Cuixiang had someone else outside while she was still married to Feng Shenghui.
Therefore, when Shen Huanxi was reborn, he always felt that Feng Shenghui was wearing a green hat when he looked at him. Now, the green hat can even shine green.
Shen Huanxi was wondering whether she should tell Zhao Qiu'e about this. When she looked towards the entrance of the alley, she found that Zhao Qiu'e was no longer there.
Also, those who sell goods with baskets on their shoulders cannot always stay in one place.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Shanhe asked.
Shen Huanxi shook his head.
"Nothing... How did you find a newspaper from such a long time ago?"
"I didn't look for it on purpose. I just happened to see it when I went to an old friend's house, so I asked him for it. You can keep it. You may need it someday."
"Yeah." Shen Huanxi nodded.
Although she was not sure whether it could be used, and she had no interest in going back to steal the family property.
After her rebirth, when facing many things, she found that she had become much more Buddhist and didn't care about anything anymore. After all, being able to start her life over again was the greatest gift from God.
But this is also Xiao Shanhe's intention.
She put away the newspaper, went around behind Xiao Shanhe and tried to push him home.
"I can do it myself. I'm used to it." Xiao Shanhe said.
Shen Huanxi did not let go.
"Then you have to get used to having me around."
She married Xiao Shanhe, who gave her and her two daughters a place to live, gave them city household registration, and treated the three of them very well. So she should put herself in his shoes and show more concern for him.
"Then..." Xiao Shanhe was silent.
"If you have any problems in the future, you can come to me first and discuss it with me. Today you went to the Three Norths Project Command to sign up as a publicist, but I didn't know about it until you left the house from Jianguo. I feel bad that you didn't come to me first but to someone else."
"Ah..." Shen Huanxi suddenly felt his heartbeat pause.
She had something to tell someone else first, not him...
"Are you jealous?"
Shen Huanxi blurted out.
After asking, I rejected the answer again and felt a little embarrassed.
How long have she and Xiao Shanhe been married? How deep can their relationship be? And their current marriage is more like a partnership. Isn't it embarrassing to ask such a question?
There is also a suspicion of being a bit self-indulgent.
Xiao Shanhe chuckled, neither denying nor admitting.
"I am your husband now and will be in the future. I have to fulfill my responsibilities as a husband. Even though I am disabled, I can at least give you advice and help you as much as I can."
"...Okay." Shen Huanxi stood behind Xiao Shanhe, her face flushed. Was she really being sentimental? He was just fulfilling his duties as a husband.
"Then if I have any problems in the future, I will definitely tell you the first time." Shen Huanxi added, as a sign of respect for Xiao Shanhe.
Even if you are living together, you have to respect each other.
As they were talking, they saw Chang'an, Changning, Xiao Yutang and Xiao Yu playing together near the big locust tree at the end of the alley.
Chang'an held two tiles in his hands and rubbed them on the ground a few times before standing up.
"Let's play house! I'll play the mom, you play the dad, Changning and Zhengzheng play the children. This is our house." Chang'an pointed to the small courtyard she had drawn on the ground.
Xiao Yu was holding a broken slingshot that he had picked up from somewhere and shaking it.
"Childish, no, we don't want to play. If we want to play, let's play the police catching human traffickers. I am the police, Changning and Zhengzheng are children abducted by human traffickers, and you are the human trafficker, I will catch you and rescue them."
Chang'an was also unhappy after hearing this.
"That won't work! Why do you think you are a police officer and I am a bad guy? Either we play the bad guys together, or we play the good guys together!"
…
Chang'an and Xiao Yutang started arguing.
Shen Huanxi paused when he saw this scene, and Xiao Shanhe did not push the wheelchair forward.
Both of them were a little surprised. Two days ago, Xiao Yutang and Xiao Yuzheng were still very hostile to Chang'an and Changning, but now they are playing together, although they still have different opinions.
What Shen Huanxi could not have imagined was that Xiao Yutang actually wanted to play the role of a police officer.
You know, in his previous life, Xiao Yutang was imprisoned for murder and sentenced to death. Who would have thought that his dream when he was young was to become a police officer?
Maybe every bad person was not bad when they were young...
The children discussed it for a while and finally reached a consensus.
Chang'an is a college student who works on a farm cultivating high-yield crops for the country. Xiao Yutang is a public security officer who helps her patrol around the farm and specializes in catching thieves who steal crops.
Chang Ning is a fashion designer who goes to the farm to find inspiration, and Xiao Yuzheng is a painter who goes to the farm to sketch.
The four children played house with the farm as the background.
The roles they play are probably their dreams, because Changan told her that she wanted to study plants, and Changning said that she wanted to be a fashion designer.
Shen Huanxi's eyes suddenly turned red.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Shanhe heard her take a deep breath and turned to look at her.
Shen Huanxi shook his head.
"I am just a little relieved to see that my four children can live in peace and my two daughters are happy. Before I got divorced, I always quarreled with that Feng guy, and Chang'an and Changning never had a comfortable day because of that..."
Whenever Shen Huanxi talked about the past, he frowned.
Xiao Shanhe suddenly patted the back of her hand. Shen Huanxi was stunned... This sudden physical contact...
But she soon realized that they were now husband and wife and it didn't matter.
She smiled and looked at Xiao Shanhe.
"You don't need to comfort me. Haven't I already escaped from the wolf den with my child? I'm very happy now and don't need comfort."
"Yeah." Xiao Shanhe withdrew his hand. "I used to quarrel with my ex-wife all the time, just like you and your ex-husband. Now it's all in the past."
"Um."
Yes, it's all in the past.
The two people's experiences were surprisingly similar, and Shen Huanxi inexplicably felt a sense of mutual appreciation.
Even though she and Xiao Shanhe are not very familiar with each other now, they still get along quite harmoniously.
Sometimes a long-lasting and happy marriage is like this. It doesn't need to be earth-shattering, it just needs peace and tranquility.
The reason why she agreed to marry Xiao Shanhe so quickly was because she knew that he was the man who buried her in her previous life, and she felt that he would not hurt her.
It was a gamble at that time, but now she can be sure that she made the right bet and Xiao Shanhe is a good man.
But she still wanted to know the reason.
The reason why Xiao Shanhe buried her in her previous life.
She searched through all her memories of her past life, but could not remember any interaction with Xiao Shanhe. No matter how hard she tried, she could not find such a person.
"Shanhe, I want to ask you a question."
"Um?"
"Did you know me before?"
