Yue Wenli cried loudly and knelt in front of her mother-in-law, "Mom, my wooden bracelet is gone. It was taken away by a mouse.
It is very important to me, please help me find it! I really can't live without it, wuwuwu..."
The mother-in-law yelled angrily: "Wenli, it's just a broken bracelet. You can buy another one if you lose it. Look at what you look like now.
If someone saw this, they would think you were crazy! If this gets out, how will you get married?
A girl's reputation is very important. I beg you, can you please stop making trouble?"
Yue Wenli stood up from the ground and said, "You don't understand. This thing is very important to me. It can make me rich and bring me good luck. If you don't help me, I will continue to look for it myself. Humph...!"
Mother-in-law hurriedly stopped her and touched her forehead with her hand, "Strange, you don't have a fever! Wenli, are you really mentally ill?
This won't do. After your brother gets married in a couple of days, we'll return to Beijing immediately. I'll take you to the hospital for a thorough checkup."
Yue Wenli struggled to break free from her mother-in-law and ran to the woodshed in the backyard to search.
Suddenly, a little white mouse appeared in front of her. Yue Wenli's eyes lit up and she shouted in surprise: "Le Le, I knew you were joking with me. You almost scared me to death, you know!
Hurry up and give me back the bracelet, I will give you some cakes, hurry up and give it to me...!"
Lele didn't say anything and ran forward. Yue Wenli picked up a broom and trotted after him.
Lele seemed to be deliberately teasing Yue Wenli, running fast for a while and then stopping for a while. Yue Wenli tried to catch it with a broom several times but failed.
Soon, Lele led Yue Wenli to the mountain temple in the back mountain.
Yue Wenli shouted happily: "Le Le, you bad guy, did you find that treasure and deliberately give me a surprise!"
As soon as she ran into the mountain temple, she felt a black screen in front of her eyes and fainted.
Chu Jingqiu dragged Yue Wenli into the house. Jiang Jiang hurriedly urged, "Qiuqiu, hurry up and send her into the space for hypnosis."
Chu Jingqiu nodded, gently touched Yue Wenli with her hand, and everyone entered the space together.
Yue Wenli lay quietly on her side on the black soil in the space, and a white pill suddenly appeared next to Jiang Jiang.
"Qiuqiu, feed this to her. It's a hypnotic pill that melts in your mouth and lasts for two hours. Hurry and ask her."
Chu Jingqiu quickly put the pill into Yue Wenli's mouth. After about two minutes, Yue Wenli turned over and lay flat on the ground with her eyes closed. The expression on her face was very calm and relaxed.
Jiang Jiang nodded to Chu Jingqiu, who quickly asked, "Yue Wenli, did Xiao Yihan really die young in his previous life? Please tell me exactly when and why he died."
Yue Wenli sighed, "You're talking about Captain Xiao, right? What a great man! What a pity! What a pity!"
I remember it was April 1971. Our whole family followed my father to attend the memorial service for Captain Xiao.
When the memorial service officially began, I heard from the army leader that Xiao Yihan and Qi Yue died while performing a mission on the southwest border.
Due to confidentiality, the specific details have not been disclosed.
I heard from some family members that he died a tragic death and was almost blown to pieces. Qi Yue had to work hard to piece together his remains, but they were still not complete.
I personally guess that Captain Xiao must have been killed in the explosion. He is truly a hero.
I saw Xiao Yihan's portrait hanging in the hall. That was the first time I saw him. I had never seen such a handsome man.
He was the only son in the family. His parents were not present at the memorial service as they were hospitalized due to excessive grief.
His grandfather looked particularly haggard, and his grandmother was crying in a wheelchair. Even I, who don't cry easily, shed a lot of tears when I saw this scene.
Alas, if I could change his fate, I would definitely choose to marry him, but unfortunately I have no ability to prevent this from happening."
Chu Jingqiu's face suddenly turned pale, and tears immediately flowed out. She wiped her tears and asked, "What happened to Xiao Yihan's parents and his family?"
Yue Wenli licked her lips and said, "Xiao Yihan's father was in poor health and passed away within a year.
His mother's health was not good afterwards and she passed away within three years.
Commander Xiao and the old lady's hair turned completely white overnight, and they seemed to have lost their energy and spirit in an instant.
Although the two persisted for ten years, everyone could see it. During those ten years, they hardly went out. The only time people saw them was when they went to visit Xiao Yihan’s grave during the Qingming Festival every year.
Chu Jingqiu closed her eyes. "What about your past life? Was it miserable?"
Yue Wenli's face suddenly became ferocious, she was no longer calm, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Chu Jingqiu hurriedly played some soothing music for her and gently comforted her for a while.
Yue Wenli gradually calmed down, and she slowly said: "In my previous life, before I met Qiao Rucheng, I had always lived a carefree life. I was young and beautiful, came from a prominent family, and was loved by my parents and brother.
In my previous life, as soon as I graduated from high school, my father found me a job at a newspaper.
I remember it was the autumn of 1971. I went hiking with my brother and sister-in-law. My brother also invited a few good friends, including Qiao Rucheng and Diao Lijun.
If I had known that Qiao Rucheng fell in love with me at first sight, I would have suffocated to death at home and would never have followed them to climb the mountain.
When Qiao Rucheng saw me for the first time, he enthusiastically chatted with me and gave me the drinks, snacks and pastries he brought with him.
I naively thought that he was just an older brother caring about his younger sister, so I accepted his care as a matter of course.
I still remember that I accidentally stepped on a stone and sprained my foot. Qiao Rucheng first gave me a massage and then carried me down the mountain. Diao Lijun wanted to help, but he refused.
Later when we got down the mountain, my brother seemed to see that Qiao Rucheng liked me, so he deliberately created opportunities for us to be alone.
I don’t know why, but my brother seemed to like Qiao Rucheng very much. He also told me that Qiao Rucheng was the son of a high-ranking official, had medical skills, and was a nice person. He also encouraged me to interact more with him.
From then on, Qiao Rucheng would come to my workplace whenever he had time, and on weekends he would take me to the movies, ice skating, and shopping malls.
I had a very happy time with him until one day, when I had a break, I decided to go to a theater performance with him.
When I was almost at his house, I heard the whimpering of animals. I found Qiao Rucheng abusing a dog in the yard with a gloomy expression.
He tied up a little wolfdog and wrapped its mouth with wire. He was beating it hard with a particularly ferocious expression.
When he looked up and saw me, his distorted expression scared me so much that I trembled all over. I felt like I saw a demon crawling out of hell, and I was so scared that I stumbled out.
