"Yes, it's the mother-in-law of Comrade Xiao Xu, the one who treated you—Comrade Jiang Yang's mother. I met her at the supply and marketing cooperative the other day, and she said I looked a lot like her husband, who'd been missing for over a decade. Their hometown was somewhere in Qingyangwan. She had the wrong person. Even though I'd been missing for a few years, I'd always been working in the mines. How could I possibly be missing someone with three children?"
Later, she herself said she had mistaken me for someone else, but Wu Min happened to see me with her and started to complain about what was going on between me and her, and she kept pestering me.
"Three children."
He remembered the dream he had that day, in which he saw three gourd babies on a gourd vine.
It must be a coincidence.
"Yiming once told me that Jiangyang's father had been gone since he was very young, and he was a child who lacked fatherly love. His mother raised the three of them alone, and life was very difficult for them."
"Where on earth has Xiaoyang's father gone? He hasn't come home and doesn't even want his wife and children."
"I don't know. Maybe he's dead."
"It's better to be dead. If you don't go back even though you're alive, you'd be a heartless person. It's better to die and let people rest in peace."
Having said this, Jiang Dongcheng's head suddenly buzzed and he felt a little dizzy. Then he shook his head: "Dad, you're right. What I hate most is people who are unfaithful. People like that are better off dead."

That day, Ruan Qingmei learned that Mo Wuwei had taken away the space in the newspaper where Tong Gensheng published his article, so she wanted to avenge Tong Gensheng and help him get that space back.
She came to where Mo Wuwei and Lin Ruyan lived. It was around ten in the morning and the door was already open.
She first stood at the door and looked around. Mo Wuwei and Lin Ruyan were both in the yard.
Mo Wuwei was still sitting in the wheelchair as before. Lin Ruyan sat next to him, reading a book in her hand. Mo Wuwei listened attentively beside her.
Seeing this scene, Ruan Qingmei gritted her teeth and muttered in a low voice: "But they are really in love."
Thinking back to the time when he had tried every possible means to pursue Mo Wuwei, the two of them had never been as loving as Mo Wuwei and Lin Ruyan were now.
She was actually a little jealous of Lin Ruyan.
"Mo Wuwei, you hypocrite, you're just an old cow eating young grass. Even though she's disfigured, you're attracted to her delicate body."
After coming to her senses, she comforted herself that the affection between the two was only what she saw on the surface. Such a couple would definitely encounter many difficulties in their lives, and she had no reason to envy or be jealous of them.
The purpose of her visit that day was to make Mo Wuwei give up publishing the article, or to change his article to another newspaper or magazine, so as to win back Tong Gensheng's position.
Just like the last time she came, she walked in with her chin held high and her head held high.
Her pride is not only reflected in her figure, but more in her attitude and her eyes.
She squinted her eyes, sneered, and said to the two people, "It's quite nice to study together."
The two people didn't hear the footsteps that just came in, which shows how focused they were.
Mo Wuwei and Lin Ruyan looked up when they heard her voice. When they saw that it was her, their faces changed immediately.
Mo Wuwei said coldly, "Why are you here again? Dogs are not welcome here. Get out now."
"Mo Wuwei, I'm a dog?" Ruan Qingmei was very angry. She pointed at Lin Ruyan and said, "You call me a dog, then what is she?"
She didn't even know why she asked such a question. Even Mo Wuwei and Lin Ruyan found him baffling.
Mo Wuwei curved his lips towards Li Ruyan and said, "She is the one I love the most, the woman I will never regret marrying in my life."
Correspondingly, he regretted marrying Ruan Qingmei.
Ruan Qingmei felt embarrassed when she heard him evaluate Lin Ruyan in this way, which was indirectly belittling herself.
"Forget it. He's the only one who wants you now. Of course you have to say something nice to him, otherwise you won't even have anyone to serve as your nanny and take care of you."
Lin Ruyan was not polite to Ruan Qingmei either.
"Ruan Qingmei, what are you doing? You're already spewing feces as soon as you get here. Is your toilet too full to hold it? Why do you have to spray it all over us?"
"Lin Ruyan, you are so vulgar."
"At least I'm much better than you. My mouth isn't as dirty as yours."
Ruan Qingmei took a deep breath. "Forget it. I won't bother with you. I'm not here to argue with you. I'm here to warn Mo Wuwei not to publish articles in the New Era Daily. You can choose not to write articles, or you can choose not to publish them. Or you can publish them in other newspapers, but don't publish them in the New Era Daily."
